Shen Lanxi lowered her eyebrows and her voice was cold as ice.

"I'm not afraid to tell you today that I, Shen Lanxi, will show no mercy to anyone who breaks the rules of my Shen family!"

What are the rules of the Shen family?

Just don’t test her, Shen Lanxi!

"Big sister, how can you be so unreasonable. I will go to the palace to see my father now. I don't believe you really dare to divorce me!" Although Zhou Yunsui married into the palace for a purpose, she would not let herself suffer such injustice.

It would have been fine if she had just said a few sarcastic words, but Shen Lanxi had people beat her in front of so many people.

He simply didn't take her, a member of the royal family, seriously at all.

My father won't allow it.

"Princess..." Old Madam Shen didn't expect Shen Lanxi to be so tough.

Isn't it just about living there for a while?

Her eldest brother is her father, how could he not be able to do that?

The princess is just concerned, what's wrong with that?

"There's no need to call grandma, she can go if she wants. His Majesty is worried about the fifth prince's affairs now, she will just run into trouble if she goes!" Shen Lanxi said coldly.

Madam Shen looked at Shen Lanxi's increasingly dignified appearance and said hesitantly, "She is still a princess no matter what. You just had her beaten in front of so many people. She must be embarrassed."

Shen Lanxi sneered: "Father is seriously ill, and she dared to send someone to his room, which made his condition worse. If His Majesty knew about this, it would definitely be more than just a slap in the face!"

Shen Yuanxin wanted to slip away quietly, but the two Yuanpeng brothers would not let him go easily.

"where do you want to go?"

Shen Yuanxin's eyes were filled with panic, and he quickly clarified to Shen Lanxi.

"Big sister, the princess and I meant well. It was that maid who climbed into the bed on her own initiative. It has nothing to do with me and the princess."

Shen Lanxi: "Even if I wasn't ordered by you, you can't escape responsibility."

Shen Yuanxin's face turned pale when he thought of Shen Lanxi's methods.

"Big sister, the princess and I are really wronged."

Shen Lanxi: "I think you've been living too comfortably and have forgotten how you struggled in Dongchuan."

Shen Yuanxin was so frightened that his legs went limp.

"Big sister, I will definitely keep a close eye on the princess and will never let her do anything wrong again."

Shen Lanxi: "You can escape the death penalty, but you can't escape the punishment of life. One leg or fifty lashes, it's your choice."

Mrs. Shen almost fainted after hearing this.

"Lan Xi, you can't!"

Fifty lashes would cost Yuan Xin's life. One of their grandsons had already been sent away, and the Shen family couldn't allow anyone else to be harmed.

Shen Lanxi said coldly: "Without rules, there will be no order. If we just brush off today's incident, they will make bigger mistakes in the future!"

"No, big sister, I won't dare to do it again..." Shen Yuanxin was so scared that he knelt down and begged for mercy.

"Lan Xi, Yuan Xin won't do that again. He knows he's scared, he definitely won't do that again!" Old Madam Shen also pleaded in a panic.

Shen Lanxi: "Today you dare to plot against my father to control me, next time it will be my grandmother, mother, and my brothers and sisters. If I compromise everywhere, will our Shen family still have a place in the capital?"

"I'm afraid they'll retreat again and again, and retreat to Dongchuan!"

Shen Lanxi spoke harshly and no one in the room dared to speak.

"The maid who climbed onto the bed was tied up and sent to Zhou Yunsui. Now that she has entered the palace, she will be thrown at the palace gate."

"Shen Yuanxin, do you want to be known as someone who is disloyal, unjust, and unfilial?"

Shen Yuanxin froze, and said with trembling lips: "Big sister, we are blood-related siblings!"

Shen Lanxi snorted coldly: "You should be thankful that your father is not seriously injured. If anything happened to him, it would be more than just lashing your leg fifty times."

Shen Yuanxin shuddered violently, remembering how cold-blooded and ruthless Shen Lanxi was when they were in Dongchuan, and his whole body shivered continuously.

He was wrong. He shouldn't have listened to the princess. He shouldn't have taken this step, knowing that his elder sister was cruel and ruthless even to her family.

"Big sister, I was wrong. I will never dare to do it again."

Shen Lanxi: "Do you want to choose or not?"

Shen Yuanxin looked at his grandmother, wanting her to help plead for mercy.

"Grandma, save me, I am the prince consort, my legs cannot be broken!"

"Grandma, fifty lashes will kill me, I don't want to die..."

The cry for mercy moved some people in the Shen family.

Shen Yuanhe and Shen Yuanrui, who had rushed over, heard the screams from inside the room and tacitly retreated and hid outside the door.

"Lan Xi, how about..." Liu wanted to beg for mercy, but was pulled back by Hu Jinyu.

Hu Jinyu shook her head gently and said don't say anything.

Liu listened very much to her daughter-in-law who came from a higher family background, and swallowed the rest of the words.

Shen Lanxi sneered: "Pull him down and break one of his legs!"

Shen Yuanxin screamed in fright.

"I choose the whip. I don't want to be a cripple. I choose the whip..."

Old Madam Shen fainted immediately.

No one said that the punishment was too severe. Even fifty lashes could take Shen Yuanxin's life.

What Shen Lanxi said just now touched their hearts. If Shen Yuanxin could conspire with the princess to plot against Shen Congwen today, he could plot against them tomorrow.

Shen Yuanxin has never been a good person. He and the princess are really a perfect match.

After a while, the sound of whipping and screaming were heard outside.

Everyone was shocked.

"Big sister, will the palace blame me?"

Shen Lanxi: "Father is seriously injured. It's Zhou Yunsui's fault."

"Let's move father to the mansion to recuperate!"

Everyone's eyes flickered, and they all lowered their eyes in silence.

Even the old lady who had returned to her room and had already regained consciousness no longer felt dizzy or had chest pain after hearing these words.

That’s the first-rank Duke of Protectorate’s Mansion!

Compared to the mansion, the Shen family is just an ordinary family residence. If she could live in it, all the noble ladies in the capital would envy her.

From then on, the Shen family became one with the government office, and the Shen family changed its name. No one dared to say that the Shen family and Shen Lanxi were two families anymore.

……

"Sir, are you really going to let Mr. Shen move to the mansion?"

Shen Lanxi: "It's just a place to sleep."

Understood.

The core of the Duke of the Guardian's Mansion has never been a house or a title. It is her as a person.

Wherever she is, there is the center.

Just when Old Madam Shen was thinking of a way to move there as well, Shen Lanxi arrived.

"Grandma, I didn't let my family move there because I thought our family was not peaceful and I didn't want the Shen family to be seriously injured again."

Old Madam Shen nodded. Someone had attempted assassination in the mansion before.

"Now that Lan Xi has established herself, there are too many people in the family, and this house is too crowded."

Mr. Shen nodded: "Lan Xi is absolutely right."

Shen Lanxi: "I'll leave the matter of moving to my grandmother. The palace has been a bit unstable lately. For your majesty's safety, I have to keep an eye on it."

Old Madam Shen felt even happier.

"Just go and do your own thing, and leave the moving to Grandma!"

Shen Lanxi: "Thank you, Grandma."

Emperor Renxiao was indeed angry after hearing what Zhou Yunsui said.

"Wang Bao, have someone go find out something."

"Yes!"

Two hours later, the person who had been investigating came back to report.

After hearing this, Emperor Renxiao was furious and ordered Zhou Yunsui to be expelled from the palace.
