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

"This is my grandfather's funeral, so naturally we are mourning him." Shen Yuanrui looked at Shen Yuantang with fear.

"Really? Why do I seem to hear you talking about me?" Shen Yuantang raised his chin and looked at the two of them coldly.

Shen Yuanhe was so scared that he waved his hands repeatedly: "No, we didn't say anything about you. If you don't believe me, ask the duck exchanger next to us."

Shen Yuantang sneered contemptuously: "They are your maids, so they will naturally speak in your favor."

After she finished speaking, she looked at the maids around the two men with a vicious look and threatened: "If you dare not tell the truth, I will chop off your heads and all your family members as well."

Crazy! Shen Yuantang is crazy!

Shen Yuanhe and Shen Yuanrui looked at Shen Yuantang in shock, as if they were struck by lightning.

I only heard that her son died, but I didn't hear that she became so crazy?

"We are all sisters, don't fight and kill each other all the time."

"Today is my grandfather's funeral, and the guests are all here. We are talking so loudly here, so many people are looking at us, right?"

"Sister, let's go find big sister!"

Just as Shen Yuanrui was about to take Shen Yuanhe away, Shen Yuantang stopped her.

"Who gave you the courage to threaten this princess?"

Shen Yuantang raised his hand and slapped him.

Shen Yuanrui screamed in fright and squatted on the ground with her face covered.

There was no slapping sound. Shen Congwen grabbed his daughter's wrist and asked angrily, "What are you going to do?"

Shen Yuantang's face darkened, and he said viciously, "Father, this is what I'm asking. These two bitches said bad things about me, can't I teach them a lesson?"

The commotion here attracted the guests' inquiring glances.

Shen Congwen felt so embarrassed that he couldn't even raise his old face.

"This is your grandfather's funeral. If you want to cause trouble, go back to your Zhennan Palace."

Shen Yuantang glared at the Shen Yuanrui sisters fiercely, and after glancing at Shen Congwen with the same look, he snorted coldly and turned around to go in.

This little episode made the Shen family members feel depressed. Some prayed that no more trouble would happen, some hoped that Shen Yuantang would make a big fuss, and some hoped that the funeral would be over as soon as possible.

……

"Mother still refuses to see me?" Shen Yuantang stood at the door of the main room.

The old woman handed her a box.

"This is given to you by the princess."

Shen Yuantang took the box, opened it and looked inside. There were several porcelain bottles. When she saw the names on the bottles, she quickly closed the lid.

"Mother, I have adopted a son. When you are well again, I will bring him to see you!" After she said that, she immediately left with a smile on her face.

Apart from this little episode involving Shen Yuantang, nothing else happened.

Mr. Shen's funeral was completed smoothly.

Shen Lanxi had official business that had piled up over the past few days to deal with. The Shen family's courtyards, big and small, were filled with people, and it was very lively.

"Father, your son-in-law has been sent out for almost two years. It's time for him to return to the capital."

"A daughter wants to be filial to her father!"

"After we sisters come back, we can also help father..."

Shen Congwen was unmoved at first, but gradually he became interested and began to think about this matter seriously.

We received good news from Qianzhou today, but Shen Lanxi was not in the court to preside over it. It was obviously a huge happy event, but it always felt not as lively as expected.

The court officials simply thought that they were busy dealing with mountains of official duties and were a little numb from being busy.

"Every time a law is amended, it takes a long time to do it."

"Shen Lanxi changed so many laws at once. If the root of the trouble cannot be eradicated, there will be endless troubles!"

"Shen Lanxi just kissed us and caused us so much trouble. This is simply unreasonable..."

"What kind of matchmaking action? I think Shen Lanxizi wants to find a man herself..."

……

When Shen Lanxi went to court the next day, she asked Wang Bao to read out the victory report.

"My Great Zhou army has recaptured another city. So far, my Great Zhou army has recaptured two cities in Qianzhou, ten counties and six counties, and captured a thousand enemy soldiers..."

"So far, Shu has recaptured three cities, three counties, six prefectures and two states..."

After the victory report was read out, Shen Lanxi smiled and said, "When our Great Zhou army returns, I will promote you to higher positions and give you many rewards based on your military achievements."

Che Mingyuan suggested: "Instead of waiting until then, why not send someone to deliver the reward now, so that the common people along the way and the soldiers stationed there will know that our army is victorious and the court will reward them generously..."

Shen Lanxi: "Okay, the Ministry of Revenue will arrange it as soon as possible, and the Ministry of War will arrange for someone to send it as soon as possible!"

"Yes!"

The Assistant Minister of the Ministry of War has a copy.

"Due to the migration of people in recent days, the population of our capital has decreased rapidly. If this continues, the capital will no longer be prosperous, and people's hearts will drift away."

The culprit of all this is Shen Lanxi.

If all the people are moved out, no one will buy the goods brought by the merchants. If this continues, Shen Lanxi will lose the support of the people.

Shen Lanxi: "The capital is the center of our Great Zhou. It is a place that everyone in the entire Great Zhou yearns for. If there is no prosperous place, this place must be prosperous."

The Minister of War said: "I am against moving people to Dongchuan and the northwest. The Regent King also said that the capital is the center of our Great Zhou. This is the most populous and prosperous place."

Shen Lanxi nodded seriously: "Master Chen's words make sense, so I have decided to hold the imperial examination again."

The assistant minister of the Ministry of War was furious: "The imperial examination is still half a year away."

Shen Lanxi: "Then make preparations early. It just so happens that Shu and Qian have taken back many places and need many officials to govern them!"

The assistant minister of the Ministry of War did not want to give Shen Lanxi an excuse, so he immediately stopped her and said, "The ancestral system cannot be changed. The time of the imperial examination has been calculated by the Imperial Astronomical Observatory of all dynasties. The time cannot be changed, otherwise it will bring disaster. Will the regent take full responsibility?"

Shen Lanxi responded calmly: "This king is not trying to change the time, but to allow women to participate in the imperial examination as well!"

As soon as these words came out, the whole hall was in an uproar.

Shen Lanxi... is making trouble again...

"No, there has never been a precedent for women taking the imperial examination in our dynasty. This is simply turning heaven and earth upside down and against moral principles!"

"How can a woman take the imperial examination? It's a joke!"

"The woman has always stayed inside the front door and outside the back door, and every day..." She couldn't finish the words "staying in the back house".

Because he thought of the Girls' Academy, the female guards in the army, and Shen Lanxi who now sat in a high position!

Shen Lanxi's action is tantamount to rebellion!

Did Shen Lanxi really think that this was the world of the Shen family? This world belonged to the Zhou family, and she couldn't do whatever she wanted.

"It's not right, it's not right!"

"I don't agree either!"

"It's ridiculous to let women take the imperial examination... I don't agree with it either!"

This time, even the three regent ministers did not stand by Shen Lanxi, and all of them strongly opposed it.

Shen Lanxi also knew that the imperial examination for women would be opposed, but she did not refute it.

"Everyone, please go back and think about it carefully. We will discuss this matter again in a few days!"

What is there to discuss? There is no discussion. As long as they are alive, it is impossible!
