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

The next day, Shen Lanxi received the news that the Shen family's governess committed suicide in her room. She thought that this matter would be used by someone to make a fuss, but she didn't expect that she waited and waited, and until the imperial examination began, no one came to report her.

I don't want to cause trouble for her, I just want to kill her to silence her.

No matter who in the palace sent them, they are still from the palace.

She wrote down this account.

The imperial examination began, and Shen Lanxi temporarily handed over the work of the Beijing Guard to Sun Feng, and she devoted all her efforts to the imperial examination.

During this period, there were turbulent times among the civil servants and power changed several times, but none of it had anything to do with her.

She was simply a figurehead pushed forward by Emperor Renxiao to show off his wisdom.

He receives the salary of the chief examiner, performs the post of the chief examiner, but does not do the work of the chief examiner.

"The imperial examination officially begins today. I wish all students can achieve good results and become pillars of the Great Zhou in the future..."

After Shen Lanxi's generous and passionate opening remarks, the imperial examination officially began!

"Sir, don't you want to go for a walk?" Che Mingyuan looked at Shen Lanxi who was sitting calmly and said in an instigating tone.

"You want to go and see it?"

Che Mingyuan said with emotion: "I have been a student going to Beijing to take the imperial examinations, and I have been a military advisor on the front lines. I never dreamed that one day I would be able to perform the duties of an examiner here."

The best students in the entire Great Zhou are all here. It is no exaggeration to say that the fate of these people is entirely in the hands of these examiners.

Fortunately, he is old and has been tempered on the battlefield, otherwise his mentality would definitely be unbalanced.

This is the feeling of holding power and controlling the fate of others!

No wonder so many people have been craving for power throughout history!

Shen Lanxi sat on the imperial chair with her arms and legs spread out, and said with a smile, "Go if you want to. I won't get close to those examinees today."

Che Mingyuan knew the taboo.

"I'm just saying."

Shen Lanxi closed her eyes and rested.

The students glanced at Shen Lanxi a few times at the beginning, but after the test papers were handed out, they no longer had the time to peek and all focused on answering the questions.

Time passed quickly and the first game ended in a blink of an eye.

When Shen Lanxi got tired of sitting, she went in to lie down. When she was hungry, she went in to eat. After eating, drinking, and sleeping, the first exam was over.

The second time happened right after that. The invigilator was replaced and Shen Lanxi resigned openly.

The students started their second exam.

For five consecutive days, Shen Lanxi took two shifts. When the exams were over, most of the students looked pale.

On the day the exam ended, several elders of the Shen family came to pick up Shen Yuanxu.

"Go back and have a good rest. I still have to mark the papers with other examiners, so I can only take you here!" Shen Lanxi patted Shen Yuanxu's shoulder.

"it is good!"

These were originally what the elders of the Shen family wanted to say, but Shen Lanxi beat them to it, so they didn't know what to say anymore.

"Yuanxu, how did you do in the exam?" Shen Congwen asked.

When he asked this question, Shen Lanxi had already turned around and entered the examination hall again.

……

Three days later, the imperial edict was posted and all the students gathered outside the imperial city waiting for the announcement.

This is also Shen Lanxi’s last thing as the chief examiner, announcing the results!

After the list was posted, students flocked to the imperial city like a tide.

"Do you have……?"

"Did you hit it?"

Shen Lanxi stood on the imperial city, with her hands behind her back, watching the grand occasion with an expressionless face.

"Sir, the imperial edict has been posted!"

Shen Lanxi took the list of names and turned around.

"Enter the palace!"

~

"Your Majesty, this imperial examination has concluded successfully. Here is the list of successful candidates!"

Emperor Renxiao already had a copy of this list.

"Lan Xi, thank you for your hard work!"

Shen Lanxi said calmly: "Everything is for the Great Zhou, it's not hard!"

Emperor Renxiao: "The palace examination will begin next, so come along then!"

Shen Lanxi burst into tears immediately: "Uncle, I have been so nervous about the imperial examination that I can't sleep these days. After the imperial examination is over, I just want to sleep well at home for a few days. I won't take part in the palace examination."

Emperor Renxiao raised his eyebrows and said, "It is such an honor to be able to take part in the imperial examination. This will be something to talk about in my old age."

Shen Lanxi said indifferently: "I don't understand what those literati are talking about."

Emperor Renxiao said unhappily, "Alright, if you don't want to, forget it. You have made great contributions in this imperial examination. Tell me, how do you want me to reward you?"

Shen Lanxi didn't hesitate at all and said directly: "I want to take a month off."

Emperor Renxiao's eyes flickered, and he said unhappily again: "You are the only one who is lazy."

Shen Lanxi smiled flatteringly: "Please help me, uncle!"

"Forget it, just take a rest. If there is anything else at the court, I will summon you immediately. Don't try to be lazy."

……

After Shen Lanxi left the palace, she went to the Shen Mansion first.

"Greetings to the Lord!" Shen Yuanxu's co-wife Hu Jinyu gave Shen Lanxi a gift.

Shen Lanxi smiled and said, "We are all family, there is no need to be polite. Yuan Xu is older than me, so I should call him brother. But I have a position now, and it would be embarrassing for him if I call him that."

Hu Jinyu nodded shyly: "Yuan Xu told me so."

Shen Lanxi: "You guys live your life well. After a while, I will ask His Majesty to arrange a position for Yuan Xu in the court."

Hu Jinyu paid his respects to Shen Lanxi just to test her opinion. Seeing her promise, he was no longer so impatient.

"I'm sorry to trouble you, sir."

Shen Lanxi smiled and said, "At home, just call me Lanxi!"

Hu Jinyu said hello respectfully.

Dinner was served at the Shen residence. Shen Congwen did not eat with them. Old Madam Shen asked the servants to bring the food to his room.

"Lan Xi, Yuan Xu didn't pass the exam. What will we do in the future?" Mrs. Liu began to worry about her son again.

Marrying a daughter-in-law from a high-ranking family is a joy, but I am afraid that I will not be able to control her. If her son is a commoner in the future, he will not be able to hold his head up in front of Mrs. Hu!

"Mother, I have my own arrangements for this matter, so don't worry about it. Just eat your meal in peace!"

Shen Conglian rolled his eyes at Liu and said, "It's better to eat radishes and worry about other things."

Liu stepped on Shen Conglian under the table. What did he know?

Shen Lanxi is from the first wife's family, so she will definitely follow the first wife's arrangements. If she doesn't push her, over time, what will the second wife do?

Miao curled her lips and kicked Shen Congli.

All the good things went to the first and second wives, and they didn't even think about the third wife.

"Lan Xi, the girls in the family are almost all engaged, so our sons should hurry up as well!" None of Miao's biological sons were engaged.

Originally, she was not in a hurry, after all, Shen Yuanxu and Shen Yuankun were older.

Now that Shen Yuanxu is married, and is the daughter of a high-ranking official, Miao feels unbalanced.

Shen Lanxi: "The marriage of the younger generation in the family is naturally arranged by the elders in the family. How can a junior like me interfere?"

Madam Shen: "No matter if they are juniors or elders, as long as it is for our Shen family, we can make the decision on family matters!"
