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

Chapter 422: A huge storm is brewing in Zhang Xinsui’s heart!

Zhang Xinsui opened the top account book and said, "This is the account of all transactions between the Fifth Prince and the Grand Princess. It records the money and items sent by the Grand Princess in previous years."

Shen Lanxi took it, opened it, and read it one by one. There were not only what he said, but also records of buying and selling official positions and privately making weapons.

Zhang Xinfa surrendered with these account books.

"I have seen the account book, and I have seen your sincerity."

Zhang Xinfa felt relieved. As long as he didn't lose his temper, it would be the best outcome.

"Master Shen, please understand. I wanted to stand out, so I joined the Fifth Prince. I thought I had found a wise master, but I didn't expect this to be the outcome."

"I don't ask for my life, I just ask you to give the 200,000 soldiers a chance. They are all following orders, they go wherever their superiors tell them to go, please spare them, Lord Shen."

Shen Lanxi's eyes were filled with thought, and after a moment she said, "Those who challenged me to kill me today must not be allowed to live."

Zhang Xinfa was shocked, and then said: "After they are gone, you will definitely have no one to use. I have several loyal and brave soldiers to recommend to you."

Shen Lanxi's fingers lightly touched the table. It was not enough for Zhang Xinsui to just bring these account books over.

"It just so happens that the task of replacing these people is left to you."

"Before the Prince of Zhennan comes, I hope to get everything done!"

Zhang Xinfa broke out in a cold sweat. Shen Lanxi actually asked him to attack those people?

Once he takes action, there will be no room for regret.

Shen Lanxi still worried about him.

"I will definitely get it done."

Shen Lanxi waved her hand: "Go!"

After Zhang Xinsui left, the secret guards appeared.

"Let our people take over the iron ore marked above, and seal the place where weapons are cast and coins are minted."

"Yes!"

It seemed like a quiet night with wind and rain, but in fact it was a baptism of swords, swords, wind and frost.

When Shen Lanxi saw the soldiers again, most of them had been replaced.

Zhang Xinsui is very fast.

"Sir, I want to go and control the floods." Zhang Xinfa looked like he had aged by ten years, with a hunched back and frost and snow on his head.

Shen Lanxi smiled and said, "Lord Zhang cares about the people. His talents should be used to benefit the people, not in the military camp."

Zhang Xinsui was filled with ashamed. He had long been corrupted and had forgotten his original intention.

"Go, the Han River has been flooding for years, and the people have to rely on it for survival. That's where you can display your talents and ambitions."

Zhang Xinsui bowed in thanks.

"You should start as a seventh-rank county magistrate first!"

Shen Lanxi's light words decided whether Zhang Xinsui would stay or go, and also set off a storm in his heart.

With just a few simple words, she arranged an official position for him so easily?

Isn't it said that although she is one of the appointed regents, she has no real power?

Those who are lying are all lies.

I really want to see what those who spread rumors look like after they know the truth.

The blood on the corners of Zhang Xinsui's clothes had not yet dried, but he was already smiling as he rode his horse straight towards the Han River.

The generals of the 200,000-man army were replaced. Shen Lanxi sent a group of them to Beijing first, and they were replaced by a group of people on the way. The replacements entered the capital, and the replaced people were divided into two groups, one went to Dongchuan, and the other went to the northwest.

She waited outside Pingcheng for another two days before Zhou Ruyuan arrived.

"Master Shen!"

"King of Zhennan!"

After a brief meeting, one went to deploy the troops while the other went to collect the body of the fifth prince.

Jiang Wuya offered a suggestion: "Your Majesty, now is the best time to seize the troops."

Rebellion, then head straight southwest to join the main army.

Zhou Ruyuan hesitated and said dully: "Now is not the time!"

Jiang Wuya said earnestly: "Shen Lanxi only brought less than 500 people. You are famous in the army. They will definitely be willing to follow the God of War."

Zhou Ruyuan: "Please allow me to think about it carefully."

Jiang Wuya could only sigh upon seeing this.

In less than half a day, the imperial court sent an urgent document, asking the Prince of Zhennan to quickly bring the fifth prince's body back to the capital for burial.

A thousand men were also sent to escort them.

Jiang Wuya realized that he had missed the best opportunity and could only sigh and help arrange the fifth prince's return to the capital.

Shen Lanxi sent two groups of people away one after another, during which time Zhou Ruyuan came to see her several times.

Every time I pretend to meet you by chance.

"Master Shen."

"King of Zhennan."

Shen Lanxi: "Tomorrow our army will be able to withdraw and return to Beijing."

Zhou Ruyuan: "It's a good thing we can go together."

"I haven't yet congratulated the prince for finally getting his wish and marrying the beauty!" Shen Lanxi said sincerely.

Zhou Ruyuan's eyes flashed with obscurity. She knew clearly that he only wanted to marry her as his principal wife. But now he said such words to provoke her, which showed that her hatred for him had never disappeared.

"Lord Shen, are you really unwilling to give those who make mistakes a chance?" Zhou Ruyuan asked in a low voice with bitterness.

Shen Lanxi said resolutely: "If you are unfaithful once, you will never be trusted again."

Zhou Ruyuan just felt that his heart was broken and could not be put back together.

Didn't she have any feelings for him at all?

"What if it's Wei Dongzhu?"

"If he made the same mistake as I did, would you forgive him?" Zhou Ruyuan looked straight at Shen Lanxi.

"No." Shen Lanxi replied decisively.

Zhou Ruyuan gritted his teeth and said, "Then you'd better remember what you said today." Otherwise~

Shen Lanxi ignored Zhou Ruyuan's resentful look and turned away.

The two teams were a hundred meters apart, heading towards the capital city one in front and one behind.

"Your Highness must not lose sight of the big picture for the sake of small details!" Jiang Wuya warned earnestly.

Zhou Ruyuan concealed the emotions and madness in his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Sir, you are right."

Jiang Wuya said meaningfully: "When the prince's plan is completed, whatever he wants will only take a word."

Now he is just a prince, and a prince who is disliked by His Majesty. He doesn't want anything and can only be arranged by the superior.

Zhou Ruyuan clenched his hands tightly under his wide sleeves.

"Thank you for your warning, sir. If I act impulsively again next time, please do not show mercy."

Now is not the time to be sentimental. If he does not think about moving forward, there will be no place for him in the court. He will become like Zhou Ru'an, banished from the center of power.

How could a man who once held a large army and great power be willing to be sent to a barren fiefdom to live out his life in loneliness?

Zhou Ruyuan has never been as firm in his conviction as he is now.

Because Zhou Ruyuan was transporting the coffin, the speed slowed down.

Shen Lanxi was not in a hurry to return to the imperial city. The two teams took five days to complete a two-day journey.

During this period, Emperor Renxiao secretly had the eldest prince taken to the imperial farm outside the capital to recuperate.

Song Daoxi was taken into the palace by Emperor Renxiao. The two had a secret conversation for an hour, and the next day Song Daoxi was named the Imperial Master.

After Song Daoxi took office, the first thing he did was to advise Emperor Renxiao to choose a queen for the eldest prince.

Emperor Renxiao called in the people from the Imperial Observatory to calculate two days later. The Observatory replied that the legitimate daughter of the Vice Minister of War was worthy of being the principal wife!
