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

After Shen Lanxi left, only the people in the mansion dared to go out.

"Madam, it's not a confiscation of property, it's the sixteenth prince in the palace who is rebelling!"

The news quickly spread to various prefectures, and then spread to the capital through the mouths of relevant generals.

"The sixteenth prince is only eleven years old. Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

"What do you know? The mother of the Sixteenth Prince is the descendant of General Wang Ling who followed Your Majesty back then. Even if none of the general's descendants practiced martial arts, they must have left Wang with a way to save her life."

"Wang has been following Your Majesty for a long time. I'm afraid she has long coveted the throne and has the intention of rebellion."

"Hurry up and find out if Shen Lanxi is in the palace?"

Soon, all the mansions received the news that Shen Lanxi had returned home today for some business.

"The palace must be in chaos right now!"

"The Wang family has always kept a low profile over the years. I'm afraid they have been waiting for this moment."

"Not good. Wang is trying to blackmail the emperor to control the princes. She wants to seize the imperial seal and issue a false edict."

"Quick, gather the guards at home. Once Wang gets the forged edict, the butcher's knife will be aimed at us."

By then, we can use their families to threaten them to agree to the forged edict, and the country will truly change hands.

He had the foresight to gather the guards at home just as the rumbling sound of cavalry was heard outside.

"who is it?"

Whose troops are these at this time?

Could it be Wang?

The hearts of all the officials sank to the bottom in an instant. Indeed, at this time, except for the Wang family who hid their strength, all the other troops had been sent out.

At this time, even if Shen Lanxi could fight against a hundred people alone, she would not be able to turn the tide.

The capital is about to change, and I hope the change of power can be less bloody. The Great Zhou is already in turmoil and can no longer withstand internal strife.

In the blink of an eye, it was daytime.

All the officials in the court and the people in the capital bravely opened the door to investigate the situation.

“Why are the streets so empty?”

"There is no blood on the ground." Given the current situation, I guess there is no one available to clean up the blood.

So there was no fighting on the streets at night.

Seeing this scene, all the officials and the people felt much better and became bolder.

"There seems to be some movement in the direction of the palace!"

"I heard it too."

The common people may not go, but the officials must, especially the important officials. If they do not go, and old accounts are brought up later, it will be considered that they are afraid of death.

After hesitating for a moment, many officials arranged for their families to head towards the palace.

The three regents met on their way to the palace.

The three of them had their own thoughts, and the old master said, "Let's go together!"

Successfully resolved each other's embarrassment.

When they passed by, the palace gate was already surrounded by cavalry, and the bodies of more than a dozen children were hanging on the gate.

The three regent ministers took only one look at it and their hearts sank to the bottom.

The one hung by the neck on the city gate was an underage prince from the harem, and the bodies of many concubines, princes and princesses were thrown on the ground.

When they passed by, Shen Lanxi was negotiating angrily with the people on the city wall.

"Don't harm the lives of His Majesty and the princes. I will give you a fiefdom and let you govern it by yourselves!"

This was an honor that was not taken away even by the two rebels who sent people to threaten her. It can be seen that Shen Lanxi had already made many concessions before they came.

"Old Grand Tutor, Lord Liu, Lord Wu..." Shen Lanxi greeted the three regent ministers one by one when she saw them coming.

Mei Nanhua asked angrily, "What's the situation in the palace now?"

Shen Lanxi: "It has been confirmed that the Sixteenth Prince is the one who is rebelling. His men have held Your Majesty hostage and are using the concubines and the princes and princesses as bargaining chips. If you don't agree to their terms, they will throw one person down for every subject you pass!"

Mei Nanhua frowned and shouted angrily at the city wall: "Rebellious ministers and traitors, everyone has the right to kill them. If you don't want to become a sinner of the Great Zhou and leave a bad name for eternity, quickly open the city gates and we will forgive you for what happened!"

The people on the city wall moved, but instead of opening the city gate, they directly threw a concubine off the city wall.

When the concubine was thrown down, Shen Lanxi immediately ordered the soldiers to catch her. As soon as she opened her mouth, the archers on the city wall began to shoot arrows.

The concubine fell to the ground and died on the spot. Her towering belly stung everyone's eyes.

"You beasts, you are simply beasts. You even don't let go of a pregnant woman. Don't you have wives and children?" Mei Nanhua cursed at the top of his voice.

In response to Mei Nanhua, another princess was thrown down and died.

Liu Mingxin hurriedly dissuaded them: "Don't provoke them any further. They are at the end of their rope and are bloodthirsty."

Wu Yanzhi was angry and sad: "Are we just going to let them threaten us and put our necks on the edge of their sword?"

Once they allow themselves to be bullied, they can only wait to be slaughtered.

"Lord Shen, what conditions did they propose?" The three regent ministers finally woke up to the facts and began to seriously consider how to deal with it.

Shen Lanxi looked at the city wall with cold eyes: "The Sixteenth Prince has proclaimed himself emperor, let us go and kill the Prince of Zhennan!"

Mei Nanhua immediately yelled, "Don't even think about it!"

Wu Yanzhi hurriedly advised: "Old Master, please lower your voice."

Mei Nanhua was furious, but he didn't dare to roar anymore.

If another person were thrown down from the city wall, none of them could afford it.

"Lord Shen, do you have any good ideas?" Wu Yanzhi asked Shen Lanxi.

Liu Mingxin was also panicked. When he heard Wu Yanzhi ask this, he subconsciously looked at Shen Lanxi.

"Prince Zhennan cannot be killed!" This is the first priority, and the three regent ministers all agree.

Shen Lanxi: "Secondly, we must rescue His Majesty, Concubine Shu, and the people in the palace, as many as we can!"

The three regents nodded.

"It's natural.

Shen Lanxi: "The Imperial Seal is in the palace. The Sixteenth Prince wants to be crowned emperor with the imperial decree. If we disobey, it would be treason!"

The three regents froze, and Wu Yanzhi immediately retorted in a low voice: "With the imperial seal in hand, he can write the imperial edict however he wants. He is the one who is causing chaos and causing trouble."

This "he" naturally refers to the Sixteenth Prince.

Shen Lanxi frowned and analyzed: "If you don't agree, he will continue to kill people."

You can't ask the Sixteenth Prince to kill everyone in the palace, right?

This question is simply unsolvable.

Mei Nanhua said with a gloomy face: "Even if a traitor ascends to a high position, it is not legitimate." Sooner or later he will be pushed down.

Shen Lanxi whispered, "My intention is to pretend to agree and coax him to stop killing people."

Wu Yanzhi glared: "What about killing the Prince of Zhennan?"

Shen Lanxi said slowly: "The Prince of Zhennan is currently suppressing the rebellion in Jiangling. Even if we want to kill him, it will take time."

Mei Nanhua's eyes lit up: "Drag?"

Shen Lanxi nodded gently: "It is impossible that all the people in the palace are theirs. Even if they obey the orders of the Sixteenth Prince for a while, they will be nervous and afraid over time."

Liu Mingxin looked at Shen Lanxi steadily, and after a moment he said, "You have been planning to submit to me for a long time, right?"
