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

Shen Lanxi was in power, and people who came to visit the Shen family with treasures were like crucian carp crossing the river.

For this reason, Shen Lanxi made a special trip back home after leaving court.

"Father, there's no one guarding the house, and I'm afraid something might go wrong!" Shen Lanxi stated the truth without even looking at the awkward Shen Congwen.

Shen Congwen couldn't bear to see Shen Lanxi return home. When he thought about having to kowtow to his daughter every time he went to court, Shen Congwen felt suffocated.

"Just say whatever you want to say." Don't beat around the bush. Doesn't he know her well?

Shen Lanxi chuckled: "Father, please stay at home until tomorrow and keep those who want to give gifts and seek connections out of the house."

Shen Congwen's face changed. She didn't want him to appear in the court.

"Shen Lanxi, I am the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, the head of the Ministry of Revenue. You let me handle such trivial matters at home. Aren't you afraid that people will say you are wasting your talents?"

Shen Lanxi raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "Go ahead, just say it!"

When Shen Congwen saw her smile, he became frightened and his legs and feet went weak.

Although Shen Lanxi did not kill people directly in the court, she asked them to go to the court to see the judge.

When Shen Congwen thought of the various ways of death he saw at the execution ground yesterday, his stomach churned.

"vomit……"

He couldn't help it.

Shen Congwen covered his mouth and limped out.

Shen Lanxi raised her voice: "Since father has no objection, that means he agrees. If father still has time, write down the names of those who came to give gifts, and when I have time later, I will search their houses one by one!"

What responded to Shen Lanxi was a thunderous sound of vomiting.

The next day's court

"Minister Shen Congwen feels that he is not up to the task and has requested a year's leave to study at home. This prince has agreed to it!"

Shen Lanxi stabbed her own father!

How cruel!

Shen Congwen really does not deserve his reputation and should study hard at home.

Shen Lanxi: "Shen Congwen felt that he was not qualified for the position, although he did not give up the position of Minister, he just went back to study, which shows his courage!"

Baiguan: "..."

"Of course, the Ministry of Revenue has many things to do and cannot be without a leader for a day. Do you have anyone to recommend?"

Dali Temple Minister Wei Jie stepped forward and said, "I recommend Liu Yanhui."

"I also recommend Liu Yanhui."

"I also..."

Zhou Ruyuan stared at Liu Yanhui with dark eyes. This man must be Shen Lanxi's confidant.

"Prince Zhennan, do you have any objection to Liu Yanhui's appointment as the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue?"

Zhou Ruyuan glanced at the person who just stood out.

Half of the court agreed. Shen Lanxi deliberately asked him if she wanted to hear his objection.

Isn't she afraid that he will really object?

"Liu Yanhui is young and has little experience." Zhou Ruyuan sneered in his heart.

He wanted to see how Shen Lanxi refuted his words.

Once she defends Liu Yanhui, she will let all the officials in the court see how Shen Lanxi is nepotism.

Shen Lanxi nodded: "Indeed, although Liu Yanhui has outstanding abilities, he is still too old after all, and he still needs a few more years of experience."

There was a flash of surprise in Zhou Ruyuan's eyes. She didn't even promote her own people?

Shen Lanxi thought for a moment and said, "Chang Ping, the head of the Ministry of Revenue, is qualified for the position of assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue regardless of his age or ability to handle affairs."

Before she could finish her words, Chang Ping collapsed to the ground with a thud.

This pie in the sky just fell on his head without any warning?

Shen Lanxi looked over and said, "Chang Ping, you don't want to?"

Chang Ping quickly knelt down with his knees together, and subconsciously shouted: "Thank you, Lord!"

There was silence in the court.

Chang Ping reacted immediately and quickly changed his words: "The Regent is wise!"

When leaving court, Zhou Ruyuan's face was as dark as it could be.

Is the Zhou Dynasty going to change hands?

While my father is still in power, does it mean that we need to change the dynasty and establish a new ruler?

This will never work!

After returning home, Bai Qingling found Zhou Ruyuan.

"Your Majesty, if we stay in the capital, we will be controlled by Shen Lanxi. We must find a legitimate reason to leave the capital."

This is what Mr. Jiang said before. He couldn't persuade the prince, so he came to her, hoping to start with her.

She was grateful to Mr. Jiang in her heart. Even though she had fallen into such a situation, Mr. Jiang still helped her out of gratitude for saving her life.

Zhou Ruyuan would not have listened to him in the past, but now he listened. After comforting Bai Qingling, he immediately went to find Jiang Wuya.

Jiang Wuya: "Our forces are in the southwest. Recently, the barbarians in the southwest border are ready to make a move. If a war breaks out, we can use the excuse of suppressing the rebellion to leave the capital."

Zhou Ruyuan's eyes were dark, and his hands clenched unconsciously as he listened to Jiang Wuya's words.

Is this really the only way out?

He is the prince of the Great Zhou who is most likely to inherit Datong. What if he leaves the capital just as his father passes away?

Jiang Wuya: "Once we have accumulated enough strength, even if we raise an army in the name of clearing the court of corrupt officials, we will be unstoppable!"

Zhou Ruyuan was persuaded and immediately wrote a letter to his old subordinates in the southwest.

……

"Your Highness, are you letting the tiger go back into the mountains?" Che Mingyuan asked worriedly.

Ban Sicao gestured with his hand: "Do you want to create an accident along the way?" He learned the word "accident" from Shen Lanxi.

After all, you are traveling outside, surrounded by snakes, insects, rats and ants, and all kinds of accidents may happen.

Shen Lanxi: "No, this is an opportunity for him, and it's also an opportunity for us."

Che Mingyuan analyzed: "If he goes to the southwest, he will definitely dominate the area and turn it into a fortress."

Shen Lanxi: "The southwest has been restless for years. We can use him to make it stronger, and then give us time to quell the civil unrest."

Wasn’t the Eighth Prince’s Rebellion settled?

Shen Lanxi looked at him with a frightening look and said, "King Cheng and King Dong Liao are two traitors. They have cut off our Great Zhou territory and committed treason. Their crimes are unforgivable!"

Che Mingyuan suddenly realized that he was so focused on the present that he forgot about these two people.

Three days later, the court received urgent news that unrest had occurred in the southwest.

"How dare a mere barbarian tribe challenge the authority of our Great Zhou? They simply don't know how to live or die!" After Shen Lanxi finished speaking, she began to angrily scold the southwestern generals.

"If they can't even defend the southwest pass, what is the Southwest Army doing?"

Zhao Zheng stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I request your permission to go to the southwest to quell the rebellion."

Zhou Ruyuan frowned. What was Zhao Zheng doing?

Shen Lanxi glanced at Zhou Ruyuan and Zhao Zheng, and then acted as if she was thinking seriously.

The Left Prime Minister: "Your Majesty, I think we should send the Prince of Zhennan. The Prince of Zhennan has been guarding the northwest and is familiar with the terrain and various tribes there."

Zhao Zheng argued: "My ancestors also fought in the southwest and know the area well."

Wu Yanzhi: "You also said that, they were your ancestors." Not you.

Zhao Zheng looked as if he was choking.

In order not to alert the enemy, Zhou Ruyuan did not ask the court officials for help. He did not expect that Wu Yanzhi would stand up to help him at this time.

Shen Lanxi glanced at Zhou Ruyuan and said, "Your Majesty is not in good health right now. I need to ask your Majesty for permission as to who to send."
