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

Shen Lanxi: "It's just a small scene. It's not time for them to come back yet."

Zhao Zheng clicked his tongue. The prince's rebellion and forcing the emperor to abdicate were considered small scenes, so what was a big scene?

Do we have to wait for a few princes to rebel together?

Zhao Zheng didn't know that what he had secretly said in his heart would actually come true in the near future.

Although he had worked with Shen Lanxi for a short time, he knew from Qian Feng and others how charming Shen Lanxi was when she was in Dongchuan and the Northwest.

He didn't believe in Shen Lanxi, he believed in the people who used to be in the Black Tiger Army.

Because they were going to rescue people secretly, Emperor Renxiao specially cooperated with Shen Lanxi and arranged a substitute in the palace.

Others thought she was still on duty in the palace, but in fact she had already set out before dawn.

A group of people left the capital and headed straight to the northwest.

"Your Excellency is truly a man of foresight. No one could have imagined that we could go to the northwest by rescuing the eldest prince." It was His Majesty who personally let them go.

Shen Lanxi smiled: "I haven't been back to the northwest for a while." The master has been gone for too long, and the people who stay there may not recognize him, so she wants to go back and remind them.

"Sir, will the Fifth Prince take advantage of this period to attack the capital?" Che Mingyuan was very worried.

Shen Lanxi raised her lips and smiled: "No."

Che Mingyuan wondered why the adults were so sure. As soon as he opened his mouth, he ate a mouthful of dirt. He could only hurry up and catch up.

Shen Lanxi said no, naturally because the Fifth Prince was too busy to take care of himself.

……

"Fifth Prince, this is an express package sent from Xihuazhou over eight hundred miles away!" the guard came quickly to report.

Zhou Yunhao frowned and took it. Xihuazhou was his fiefdom. He had already settled everything when he came. He just received a letter two days ago. Why did he come again at this time? Could it be something urgent?

"Was it sent by our people?" Zhou Yunhao asked as he opened the letter.

"It's from our house." The guard reported.

The personal bodyguard has followed him for many years and knows everyone in the mansion, there must be something wrong.

As they were talking, the letter had already been opened, and Zhou Yunhao's face changed drastically after reading the contents.

The personal guard had followed the Fifth Prince since he was a child, and when he saw him like this, he knew something was wrong.

"Master, what's going on in the mansion?"

Zhou Yunhao's face changed drastically and he crumpled the letter into a ball. Who threatened him to retreat a hundred miles with the lives of his entire family?

"Send someone back to Xihuazhou quickly and quietly."

"Yes."

Five days later, Zhou Yunhao retreated a hundred miles in the name of Emperor Renxiao asking for the imperial physician.

When the report was received in the capital, Emperor Renxiao thought that Shen Lanxi had been discovered and became depressed for a while.

The appointed regent wrote to Emperor Renxiao to set up a cabinet and re-select talents. After weighing the pros and cons, Emperor Renxiao agreed.

Zhou Ruyuan officially entered the capital on the pretext of searching for the remnants of Zhou Yunshang, came into contact with officials in the court, and was able to enter and leave the palace freely.

In the blink of an eye, a month passed. During this time, Emperor Renxiao received three secret letters from Shen Lanxi. The first letter said that she had successfully infiltrated. The second letter said that the eldest prince was being held in a strict custody and it was difficult to find him. The third letter said that she had found out where the eldest prince was being held.

Emperor Renxiao's mood finally improved and his health also improved significantly.

Taking advantage of the good news to refresh himself, Emperor Renxiao also attended a morning court session. When he left the court, apart from feeling a little exhausted and distracted from time to time, he managed to hold on.

The imperial physician checked Ping's pulse three times a day, and Emperor Renxiao believed that he would be able to return to court soon.

The three regents were all his men, and there were no particularly difficult government affairs to handle, so Emperor Renxiao simply began to rest again.

As time went by, the court officials gradually got used to it, and were able to accept Emperor Renxiao's suspension of court again.

Shen Lanxi returned to the northwest quietly and could not appear in public. But she did a lot.

In total, corrupt officials, cruel officials, treacherous villains killed more than a hundred people.

These hundreds of people were all publicly executed.

A lot of nails were pulled out, and in the second month, Shen Lanxi decided to go back.

"Big sister, be careful on your way back." Shen Yuanjing looked at the person on the horse with reluctance on his face.

Shen Lanxi looked at the family of three and her eyes fell on Kang Zhu's belly.

"Next time we meet, there will definitely be kids calling me auntie again."

Shen Yuanjing smiled and teased his daughter to say goodbye to Shen Lanxi.

"Aunt..."

Shen Lanxi touched the child's head and urged the horse to leave with a smile.

Kangzhu looked at Sashuang's leaving figure with longing and said, "Yuanjing, I will definitely give you a son this time."

~

Zhou Ruyuan uncovered more than ten remnants of Zhou Yunshang and more than twenty spies planted by Zhou Yunhao in the capital.

In the main hall, Emperor Renxiao gave special praise and rewards.

"Father, I beg you to transfer troops from the southwest." As for what purpose, Zhou Ruyuan couldn't say.

No matter which father he is, he doesn't want to hear others say that his son is a traitor.

Insufficient military force has always been a thorn in Emperor Renxiao's mind. As all four sides were ready to make a move, all the extra troops in the capital were sent out to garrison. Otherwise, he would not have been so lacking in confidence and being controlled by others.

Before Emperor Renxiao could say anything, the military generals objected.

"No, the barbarians in the southwest have been restless for a long time. The reason they haven't caused any trouble until now is because we have a large army to suppress them. If we call back the troops now, the barbarians will definitely seize the opportunity."

"I will review this matter."

"Your Excellency the Minister is right."

None of the generals were left behind and all came out to oppose.

How could Emperor Renxiao not understand this logic? There were barbarians in the southwest, Turks in the northwest, and two rebellious kings waiting for an opportunity to strike.

Although the Great Zhou seemed calm, it was actually in turmoil and a war was imminent.

Civil officials have always been at odds with military generals, but they think the same as the military generals.

If you don't object, you are already agreeing with their point of view.

Zhou Ruyuan is eager to break the current deadlock, and the only breakthrough now is Zhou Yunhao.

He couldn't openly threaten to kill him, so now it all depended on what Emperor Renxiao thought.

"There is no rush for this matter!" He received a secret letter from Shen Lanxi last night, asking her to rescue the eldest prince in the next few days.

During this period, absolutely no unexpected events should occur.

Zhou Ruyuan's eyes darkened and he made another report.

"I have a plan that may be able to turn the tide without too many troops."

All the courtiers looked at him.

Emperor Renxiao: "Speak."

Zhou Ruyuan said, "I heard that there is a capable man under my second brother. He is resourceful and wise, and he may have a brilliant plan."

Emperor Renxiao was stunned, and then a look of regret flashed in his eyes.

His brain power has been getting worse recently, and he only wants the eldest prince to subdue this person. Now the eldest prince is too busy to go, can he summon this person to the capital!

"Your Highness, are you talking about the descendant of Guiguzi?" the old master raised his voice.

Zhou Ruyuan: "That's exactly the person."

The whole hall was in uproar, and the court officials began to discuss in low voices.

Emperor Renxiao already had an idea in his mind, and immediately ordered Zhou Ru'an to send troops to escort Song Daoxi to the capital.

At the same time, Emperor Renxiao handed over the Bingmasi to Zhou Ruyuan, and Zhou Ruyuan officially entered the Ministry of War.
