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

The next day, Emperor Renxiao issued an order to summon the eldest prince.

Zhou Rulin's body has almost recovered, and from his appearance, he no longer looks like a seriously injured person.

"Father."

Emperor Renxiao said kindly, "Your coronation banquet has been postponed again and again. My birthday is coming soon, and it would be a pity to have it happen on a different date. I plan to officially crown you the Prince of Chen on the day of your wedding."

Zhou Rulin was pleasantly surprised: "Thank you, Father."

Emperor Renxiao looked at his son who looked 60% like the late queen, his eyes filled with longing.

"My son has been wronged. Previously, there were people in the court who repeatedly petitioned me to appoint a crown prince, but I always suppressed their requests."

Zhou Rulin felt guilty: "Father, if I had any merits, I would definitely not make things so difficult for you."

Emperor Renxiao nodded and said, "It's good that my son understands. Now that the military power has fallen into someone else's hands, you have no prestige in the army. If you want to take charge of the army, you have to take it step by step."

Zhou Rulin had a plan: "Father, if you want me to be trusted by others, besides having achievements, I also need to have the support of the people. My second brother has gained a lot of support from the people by providing disaster relief. I think we can use this method as well."

When Zhou Ru'an was mentioned, Emperor Renxiao felt displeased.

"Even if he had won the hearts of the people before, he has already lost them."

Fortunately, this time Zhou Ru'an readily sent the successor of Guiguzi to the capital, otherwise, he would have executed him long ago.

Emperor Renxiao thought of one thing: "The Han River overflows every summer, and the people are living in misery. If you can comfort the victims and control the flood, it will definitely be a great achievement." He will also be able to win the hearts of the people and use them for his own benefit.

Zhou Rulin's eyes lit up: "Thank you, Father, for the arrangement."

Emperor Renxiao immediately issued an edict, and the wedding date of Zhou Rulin and the daughter of the Minister of War, as well as the imperial edict to confer him the title of king, were sent to the eldest prince's palace.

Things in the palace changed rapidly, and every change was quickly heard by those who were paying attention.

Shen Lanxi: "Send a message to Zhang Xinsui, and arrange for someone to send Zhou Xinsui to Zhou Rulin."

"Yes!"

Zhennan Palace

After Bai Qingling received the news from Jiang Wuya, she immediately rushed to the meeting room.

I just happened to run into Shen Yuantang.

"What are you doing here?" Bai Qingling immediately scolded unhappily.

Shen Yuantang sneered: "Of course I am concerned about the health of the prince, so I came to bring him some nourishing soup."

Bai Qingling said coldly: "Your Majesty is in good health, so you don't need to use the tonic soup. Medicine is three-quarters poison, don't do anything superfluous!"

Shen Yuantang froze and said angrily, "You don't care about the prince, and you don't let others care about the prince. Bai Qingling, who do you think you are? You actually questioned the supplements I sent. You are so ignorant. The supplements I sent are no less than those in the palace. You say that medicine is three parts poison. Aren't you afraid that others will laugh at you when you say that with your shallow knowledge?"

Bai Qingling's face turned dark and she immediately called for help.

"Concubine Shen is disrespectful to me. From now on, you are confined to your room. Without my permission, you are not allowed to step out of the door!"

Shen Yuantang was fearless and said arrogantly: "I'll see who dares to touch me! His Majesty is my uncle, I am the younger sister of the Duke of the Guardian, and my mother is the Queen Mother's favorite Princess Minrou. If you dare to touch me, watch out for your heads!"

It was Shen Yuantang's background again. Every time he talked about background, Bai Qingling seemed to have been caught in a weak spot.

Thinking of how the prince hurried back to the mansion today to discuss matters with Mr. Caolu, Bai Qingling's eyes flashed, and then she raised a scornful smile.

"You are just saying it in a nice way. His Majesty only recognizes Shen Lanxi and has never summoned you to the palace. It's true that Shen Lanxi is the Protector of the Country, but after you married the prince, has she ever helped you in any way?"

"If His Majesty and Shen Lanxi were standing beside you, would I still sit in the position of the princess?"

"Shen Yuantang, it's fine if you're just pretending to be powerful to outsiders, but don't make a fool of yourself for us who know the inside story."

Shen Yuantang's face immediately darkened.

Bai Qingling found Shen Yuantang's weak spot, seized it and stepped hard.

"My background is not as good as yours, but I was married by His Majesty, and His Majesty also appointed me as a deputy general. When there is a war, I will be able to fight the enemy together with the prince."

"You, you have a good family background, so what? You can't help the prince at all, what's the point of having a good family background!"

After Bai Qingling finished speaking, she smiled happily, as if she had avenged herself.

Shen Yuantang was filled with shame and indignation, but he could not think of any words to refute.

"Bai Qingling, you have ruined the prince's reputation. You are a shameless jinx!"

Bai Qingling's smile froze. She hated it most when others brought up past events.

"If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have been able to marry into the palace. You should thank me instead!" Bai Qingling and Shen Yuantang had fallen out a long time ago. When they cursed at each other, they didn't pretend at all and used all kinds of nasty words.

When Shen Yuantang thought of Shen Lanxi, his eyes darkened again. If she was willing to help her, the position of the queen would be hers now.

Shen Lanxi is selfish, cold-blooded and heartless. She is not worthy of being her sister!

If I really treated her as my own sister, I wouldn't have the heart to see her being suppressed by a bitch!

"Someone, send Concubine Shen back to the yard!" Bai Qingling ordered coldly.

Shen Yuantang subconsciously shouted: "Let's see who dares!"

The quarrel between the two had already disturbed Zhou Ruyuan.

"What's going on again?" Zhou Ruyuan walked over with a dark face.

"Your Majesty!"

Bai Qingling and Shen Yuantang saluted him.

"You guys have turned the Zhennan Palace into a market. If you like to quarrel so much, why don't you just find a room and quarrel behind closed doors, so that it won't get out and embarrass the Palace!"

Zhou Ruyuan was already irritable, and the meeting was forced to be interrupted, which made him even more upset, and he took out all his anger on the two people.

"Your Majesty..."

Shen Yuantang was full of grievances.

Bai Qingling was a well behaved person and left in a hurry with her maid.

Afterwards, Zhou Ruyuan also left with a dark face and swung his sleeves.

"My Lady Concubine, the princess is taking advantage of the fact that you are not close to the Duke of the Guardian Mansion, so she dares to do this."

Shen Yuantang felt aggrieved and angry.

"If Shen Lanxi doesn't help me, what else can I do?"

The maid's eyes flashed with disdain, and then she said, "You spoke to her in a nice voice, how could she not give you face?"

"Don't you still have parents and elders? With them helping to intercede, how can Shen Lanxi not help you?"

Shen Yuantang said stubbornly: "I have already torn my relationship with her."

Maid: "Sisters don't hold grudges overnight. If you don't give in, you will always be suppressed by the princess." Stupid thing, think about it carefully!

Taking advantage of Emperor Renxiao's birthday, Concubine Shu called Bai Qingling and Shen Yuantang into the palace.

"I heard that you two are not getting along, and it has affected my son's important event?"

Bai Qingling and Shen Yuantang dared not admit it.

"Madam, we don't."

Concubine Shu said coldly, "You two go kneel outside the door for an hour and then come in to talk to me!"

Shen Yuantang groaned in his heart, and Bai Qingling's face fell.

The news that Zhou Rulin was named Prince of Chen caused an uproar in the court and the country.
