Rebirth: The wedding night, my whole family was exiled, I raised 500,000 soldiers

Zhou Ruyuan pursed his lips bitterly. Just when he was caught in a dilemma, there was a clang and the vase not far away broke.

A group of eunuchs and palace maids quickly surrounded them.

"Young Master, why are you playing football here? Let's go to an open area..."

"No, I just want to play here."

"My young master, this won't do. The queen is resting inside."

When Shen Lanxi came over, she saw several eunuchs and palace maids kneeling on the ground coaxing the child.

"Is the Concubine Shu in the palace? His Majesty asked me to come and talk to her." Shen Lanxi turned around and faced the angry child.

Then the football flew towards her, and Shen Lanxi waved it away with a cold face.

"You broke my Cuju, you got down on your knees and picked it up!"

Shen Lanxi walked over and kicked the Cuju away.

"How dare you! Hurry up and catch her!" The child jumped up and pointed at Shen Lanxi in anger.

The door opened and Zhou Ruyuan came out with a dark face.

"Nonsense, take the young master away quickly!"

Seeing that Zhou Ruyuan was angry, the child was so scared that he didn't dare to say anything.

Concubine Shu came out of the room with an unhappy look on her face.

"What's going on? Who has offended my beloved grandson?"

When the child saw a familiar person, he immediately ran over and hugged Concubine Shu to complain.

"Grandma, it was her. She is a bad person. She kicked my Cuju away."

Concubine Shu looked at Shen Lanxi with a stern face: "Lanxi, you are such a grown-up, why are you arguing with a child?"

Shen Lanxi didn't respond to her question and asked, "Whose child is he?"

Concubine Shu froze, and Zhou Ruyuan also pursed his lips tightly.

Shen Lanxi: "I haven't heard that Concubine Shu gave birth to a second prince? Could it be that he was adopted from another concubine?"

Zhou Ruyuan was instantly annoyed. She knew it clearly, but she still asked despite knowing it. What kind of situation did she want to put him in?

Concubine Shu said coldly: "This is my grandson."

Shen Lanxi: "Have you been on the Royal Plate?"

This sentence almost made Concubine Shu faint from anger.

"This is my grandson, Ruyuan's child. After you marry Ruyuan, this child will be registered under your name and will be your child in the future."

Shen Lanxi sneered: "No, I can't give birth to a child this big. Your Majesty wants to give this child a royal status, does Your Majesty know?"

Concubine Shu's face turned blue with anger.

"Even if it's not registered under your name, it's still Ruyuan's child. He is of royal blood, and he will definitely be on the imperial list in the future."

Shen Lanxi said with a smile: "Whether he goes on the imperial plate or not, you don't need to tell me, it has nothing to do with me."

Concubine Shu gritted her teeth in anger: "Shen Lanxi, how dare you talk to me like that?"

Zhou Ruyuan's face also turned pale. This time, his father had spoken, which would be a guarantee for Shen Lanxi's future. Shen Lanxi actually dared to contradict her mother like this. Was she really not afraid of being punished?

"Shen Lanxi, my patience with you is limited." Zhou Ruyuan said with a cold face.

Shen Lanxi looked at Zhou Ruyuan with a half-smile: "I have already told His Majesty what we talked about before. I believe that His Majesty will call you over in a short while."

Zhou Ruyuan thought about the conditions she had offered before, and looked at Shen Lanxi with eyes that looked like he wanted to eat her.

"I have already met Her Majesty. I have completed the task assigned by His Majesty. I am busy with official duties, so I will not stay any longer!" Shen Lanxi turned and left.

He walked to the place where the Cuju was thrown and crushed it with one foot.

A heart-wrenching cry suddenly rang out, and Shen Lanxi left with an arrogant smile.

Concubine Shu's chest was heaving with anger: "How outrageous! She is simply too rampant. Someone, stop her for me. I will severely punish this disrespectful person!"

Shen Lanxi looked coldly at the guards who were rushing towards her. The guards all stopped five meters away and did not move forward.

Zhou Ruyuan gritted his teeth and yelled, "Let her go!"

Concubine Shu looked at her son in disbelief. Previously, for Bai Qingling, he had ruined his reputation and made His Majesty ignore her for two years. Now, for Shen Lanxi, he even disregarded her reputation as a mother.

Who was she planning for? Shen Lanxi contradicted her so much, but she let her own son go so easily?

"Mother, there is a token given by my father hanging around her waist!" Zhou Ruyuan explained coldly with a sullen face.

Concubine Shu suddenly came to her senses. She was so angry that she lost her mind. It was all Shen Lanxi's fault. She actually contradicted her mother-in-law and didn't even give face to her man. She would see how she would deal with her when His Majesty's imperial decree of marriage came down.

"Ruyuan, your mother is also confused by anger. What conditions did she just say?" Concubine Shu regained her shrewd look and looked at her son without blinking.

Zhou Ruyuan froze.

……

Shen Lanxi had not attended court for three consecutive days, and the court officials were discussing the matter privately.

"It seems that your majesty is going to set things right. It is absurd to allow a woman to attend court!"

"The Wei family's case has been settled, and the Shen family is the biggest victim. It's time for Shen Lanxi to step down and take care of her husband and children."

"It should have been done a long time ago. Women should follow the Three Obediences and Four Virtues. From now on, they should stay in the backyard and avoid showing up in public."

The news that Shen Lanxi had gone from being an official to a commoner spread like wildfire.

Today, Shen Yuantang took her sisters to attend the birthday party of the young lady of Jining Marquis's Mansion. She was framed in various ways, and Shen Yuantang was angry and annoyed. She held back her tears and ran back alone.

When Old Madam Shen heard this, she immediately asked someone to call Shen Yuantang over.

"It was a nice birthday party, why did you come back by yourself?"

Shen Yuantang felt angry and aggrieved. When she saw her grandmother who loved her so much, she blurted it all out.

"Grandma, they openly or secretly laugh at our daughter for being tough, not respecting etiquette, and not observing the three obediences and four virtues."

Old Madam Shen's face suddenly turned dark.

"Who said that? If this gets out, how will the girls waiting to get married at home look at me?"

Shen Yuantang cried out of grievance: "They said in a sarcastic way that my elder sister showed up on the battlefield, and that the girls in our family also mixed with men. They also said that when we were exiled, men and women lived together, and they also said..."

Old Madam Shen's face was so gloomy that water could drip from it.

This is not just a little girl saying sour words, she has a grudge against their family and wants to destroy their Shen family.

"Where's your big sister?"

Shen Yuantang covered his face and shook his head: "I don't know. They all said that my elder sister has lost her official status and was held accountable by His Majesty. She is confined at home to reflect on her mistakes."

Old Madam Shen said angrily, "They are talking nonsense. They are just jealous of the Shen family's revival. They dare not do anything to us openly, so they say these harsh words."

Didn't grandma dislike the eldest sister the most? Why did she speak up for the eldest sister?

When Shen Yuantang thought of the embarrassing scene in the Marquis' Mansion, he felt humiliated and ashamed.

"Grandmother, will His Majesty really settle the score with my elder sister and hold her accountable for joining the army?"
