Is the saying "the greatest good is best" used for this?

She is so vulgar and so unreasonable!

Even though many officials were angry, they did not dare to show it.

Shen Lanxi was so reckless, how dare they say that if they said a word of rebuttal, Zhao Sheng would be their fate!

After that, the wedding went on as normal. Shen Lanxi took time out to inspect the military camp three times and checked the armaments three times to ensure that they could set out on the designated date.

"Armaments must not be reduced, and we must not use inferior materials or cut corners. You must keep an eye on it personally!" Shen Lanxi ordered Liu Yanhui.

Even though he failed to become the head of the Ministry of Revenue, he still possessed real power. The real Minister of Revenue had already been sidelined by Liu Yanhui and was in name only.

"The military equipment was all taken out from the transfer warehouses in Dongchuan and the Northwest. What happened to Madam Song before was my negligence. I beg the Regent to punish me." Liu Yanhui looked guilty.

Shen Lanxi: "There is always a loophole, so it's not a big loss. Remember this lesson, don't make the same mistake again!"

"Yes!" Liu Yanhui hated Tian Chunshan's family in his heart. Usually, this family acted honest and loyal in front of him, but he didn't expect that they were treacherous and were planning to occupy the family and destroy the whole family.

Shen Lanxi's eyes fell on Liu Yanhui, and she turned around and took a box from the shelf.

"This is a wedding gift for you!"

Liu Yanhui's eyes were stung by the exquisite box, and he felt the temperature in his body quickly fade away.

"Your Highness..." What could he say? Was he forced to go on a blind date by his mother?

If he doesn't want to, can his mother force him?

It's useless to say anything. Besides, what is their relationship?

"Take it, this is a gift from me!" Shen Lanxi said in a gentle tone.

Liu Yanhui didn't know how he raised his hand, let alone how he walked out of the palace.

I only remember being in a trance for a moment, and when I woke up, he was already standing at the palace gate holding the box.

Liu Yan hurried back home and closed the door. Although she was holding the box tightly, she felt empty inside, as if it had been hollowed out.

……

In a blink of an eye, it was time to go to war. Shen Lanxi personally sent the soldiers out of the city. The platform where the descendants of King Li were beheaded was still there.

Shen Lanxi held the Companion Star Sword in her hand, with a vigorous and powerful sword, and a loud roar, as she saw the soldiers off.

Amid the sound of war drums, a cold light flashed, like a sharp blade being unsheathed.

"I hope that my soldiers will be like the sharp sword in the king's hand, invincible and victorious wherever they go..." Shen Lanxi's shout echoed throughout the capital!

As soon as Wei Dongzhu and others were sent away, a carrier pigeon delivered a letter.

Zhou Ruyuan had encountered his third assassination attempt on his way to the southwest.

Che Mingyuan didn’t understand. Wouldn’t it be better to just let Zhou Ruyuan die on the road?

Why did the Regent insist that Zhou Ruyuan arrive in the southwest smoothly?

If they were constrained by Zhou Ruyuan before, now that Zhou Ruyuan is gone, who can still constrain them?

Who is their regent afraid of?

"Mother, has Yuantang returned home in recent days?" Shen Lanxi took the time to go back and pay her respects to her mother.

Zhou Xinrou: "No, her child is gone, and no one came to inform her family."

What does she mean by asking this?

Shen Lanxi lowered her eyes, making it impossible for Zhou Xinrou to see her expression clearly.

"Mother, Yuan Tang and I have been sisters for many years. She has lost her will and mind, and I am worried about her."

Zhou Xinrou sighed: "You are a child who cares about feelings. When she comes, I will mediate between you two."

Shen Lanxi: "Thank you very much, mother. Mother, if you are not comfortable living in the Regent's Mansion, you can move to the palace."

As soon as this proposal was made, it was blocked by Zhou Xinrou.

"No, it's not right for me to live in the palace."

Shen Lanxi pondered for a moment and said, "One day, my daughter will let mother live in the palace legitimately!"

Zhou Xinrou raised the corners of her mouth and smiled.

"You are a filial child. Your mother is waiting for you!"

When Shen Lanxi left her mother's place and passed by the front hall, she saw her grandmother distributing monthly wages to the children in the family.

"Greetings to the ancestors!" The little guy, who made clumsy and flattering gestures, was the son of Shen Yuanxu from the second house.

"Greetings to the ancestors!" He was Shen Yuanxu's son.

"Greetings to our ancestors!" Shen Yuanjun's son said.

"Greetings to the ancestors!" Shen Yuankun's daughter.

"Give...Give...Answer...Grandpa!" Shen Yuanpeng's child, who could not speak clearly yet, had already learned to stretch out his hand to please others.

"Okay, okay, we have everything. The ancestor has prepared a basket full of gifts for you. Whoever is the most well-behaved will be given golden melon seeds and peanuts."

"Grandfather, I am the most well-behaved, I am the most well-behaved..."

When Shen Lanxi walked over, she happened to see Old Madam Shen being surrounded by children.

"Greetings to grandma!" Shen Lanxi said, smiling and extending her hand.

Madam Shen's temper had become much calmer after being taught by the master. Seeing Shen Lanxi reaching out for a reward, she smiled unhappily and said, "How old are you? How dare you compete with a few kids?"

Shen Lanxi smiled and said, "How can it be just a few? Grandma has many children and grandchildren now!"

Old Madam Shen: "Since you can talk, I'll give you a golden melon seed!"

Shen Lanxi immediately complained: "They all gave me such big golden peanuts, why did they only give me small golden melon seeds?"

Old Madam Shen immediately said unhappily: "You are such an adult, yet you still compare yourself with children. Here, here, here, I'll give you a golden peanut." Humph, you only know how to covet her things.

Shen Lanxi immediately ordered people to put holes in the peanuts and melon seeds and hang them around the waist as accessories.

"Lan Xi, just enjoy the happiness of the family and grandma!"

A bunch of little kids saw Shen Lanxi hanging pumpkin seeds and peanuts around her waist, they thought it was novel and immediately started to grab them.

"Don't move, or your aunt will get you dirty."

The child's mother quickly stepped forward to stop them.

That is the imperial robe, a four-clawed dragon robe. If it were someone else, they would be beheaded if they got it dirty!

Shen Lanxi smiled and said, "It's okay, it's just a piece of clothing, they can pull it if they like!"

When the mothers of the children saw how Shen Lanxi indulged their children, they all started to have some thoughts.

Old Madam Shen took the opportunity to mention the matter of her eldest son.

"Lan Xi, the court is much more stable now. Your father is idle at home every day, so why not let him go to court!"

Shen Lanxi smiled firmly, and then said, "Of course you can, but you have to make it clear in advance. I just kicked out a person who disagreed with me a few days ago. Grandmother wants father to go to court, but you have to warn him all the time and don't let him hold back our Shen family!"

Although Mrs. Shen was unhappy, she also understood her eldest son's bad temper.

If his parents quarreled in the court, Shen Lanxi would not show mercy to her son just because of the father-daughter relationship.

"Grandma, please persuade your father again. After he comes to his senses, I will send someone to look for you."

Shen Lanxi: "Okay, I'll have to trouble you, grandma. The family won't be able to survive without grandma to take care of things!"
