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

Chapter 532 The situation is over, and everyone’s expectations are in favor!

A large part of the concubines entered the palace later, and many of them had not yet been arranged to serve the emperor when Emperor Renxiao died.

Shen Lanxi said helplessly: "After all, they have served my uncle, so I have to make arrangements for them for my uncle."

Liu Yan replied: "Your Majesty is kind and benevolent."

"To prevent some concubines from being mistreated by their families after returning home, the Ministry of Personnel and the Dali Temple should visit them frequently."

The Dali Temple and the Ministry of Personnel stepped forward to respond.

Wei Dongzhu said: "Your Majesty has ascended the throne. For safety reasons, outsiders can no longer live in the palace. I suggest that the concubines who are willing to stay be moved out of the palace and live in other palaces!"

Liu Yan replied: "I will review the matter!"

"I will also review this!"

Most of the court officials stood up to review the matter, and Shen Lanxi nodded in agreement.

"Wang Bao, you decide on the arrangements!"

"Old slave obeys!"

Someone else made a suggestion

"Your Majesty, will the Shen family be admitted into the palace?"

Shen Lanxi glanced at the minister who made the suggestion and said calmly, "Don't make any arrangements for now. We'll make arrangements after we clear out the harem!"

"Your Majesty, I have made the following arrangements for the coronation ceremony in half a month..."

While the capital was busy, Zhou Ruyuan was waiting.

Shen Lanxi, a woman, ascending the throne is like a hen crowing at dawn, violating etiquette and law, and turning the tables. The officials will not agree, the people will not agree, and the princes of various places will not agree.

He just needs to wait patiently for someone to rise up in rebellion. Then he can follow the will of heaven and lead his army straight into the capital.

Unfortunately, he waited and waited, and when Shen Lanxi was about to ascend the throne, the officials did not make a sound, and the people were happy as if nothing had happened.

A woman is going to be their king, shouldn't they be terrified and afraid? Shouldn't they be restless, resentful, and even riotous?

No, there was no rebellion at all. The people were busy farming, doing business, and doing other things. No one paid attention to Shen Lanxi's ascension to the throne.

Seeing Zhou Ruyuan's rage, Jiang Wuya tried to persuade him, "Your Highness, those are ignorant and unruly people. Why are you angry with them? Now is the busy farming season. Wait a little longer and see if the people will talk about this matter after the busy farming season is over."

Zhou Ruyuan was still angry.

Jiang Wuya sighed, "People will only care about who sits on the throne after they have enough food and clothing."

Zhou Ruyuan slowly loosened his grip.

"If a woman ascends the throne and calls herself an emperor, causing chaos in the court, even God will not approve of it."

Jiang Wuya raised his eyebrows but didn't respond.

The content of the following express report was so exciting that Shen Lanxi even asked Wang Bao to read it in the court.

"Jiangnan uses the technique of intercropping, raising fish and shrimp in rice fields, and chickens and ducks in the mountains and forests. This not only prevents pests and diseases, but the manure can also be used as nutrients to fatten the crops. Not only are the fish, shrimp, chickens and ducks plump, but even the rice yield has increased significantly. It is expected that Jiangnan will not only be able to pay taxes early in the second half of the year, but also be able to use 20% more for local charity halls and schools, and much more for building bridges and roads."

"Jiangbei has vigorously developed fishery and animal husbandry. After improvement, fishing boats can go to more distant waters to fish. This year, the output of fish alone has reached 6 million taels. Excluding the 3 million li of taxes paid to the court in the second half of the year, the remaining 3 million li can be used to improve people's livelihood. There is a capable tea grower in the local area, who has led dozens of surrounding villages to grow tea. The local government strongly supports it and has allocated money specifically for the initial investment..."

"The northwest has had a bumper harvest of grain. Hundreds of pastures have continuously provided our Great Zhou army with war horses and meat jerky. Now the entire northwest is no longer short of meat, and it can also be supplied to other provinces..."

The court officials were delighted by the series of good news.

Which official doesn't want to see the country prosper and the people have enough food and clothing?

This reminded them of their original intention when they were studying.

Of course, they have not forgotten who brought these changes to the Great Zhou.

"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"

Shen Lanxi was satisfied and asked Wang Bao to continue reciting.

"The Southwest has submitted to our Great Zhou and agreed to the policy of dual governance. They are willing to be loyal to Your Majesty. They also said that they will send gifts to Your Majesty on the day when Your Majesty officially ascends the throne!"

Shen Lanxi nodded.

Wang Bao continued: "The Northwest Army offers blessings to Your Majesty, and wishes Your Majesty a long life. We are willing to always be loyal to Your Majesty and to the Great Zhou, and to defend the territory of the Great Zhou until our death!"

"The Xiongnu, Persians, Tatars and other northwestern tribes offer their blessings to Your Majesty and wish Your Majesty a long life..."

"The Dongchuan Army offers its loyalty to Your Majesty and is willing to go through fire and water for Your Majesty..."

"Donglinzhou, Yonglinzhou, Pingchuanzhou, Xiyanzhou, Youzhou, Datongzhou... and other thirty-six states offer their loyalty to Your Majesty..."

"The wolf tribe, eagle tribe, tiger tribe, and other twenty-five tribes in the southwest offer their blessings to Your Majesty..."

After the long list was read out, more than an hour had passed. During this time, Wang Bao's mouth was dry and his tongue was parched. He just couldn't bear to hand over this task to his apprentice.

Every time he read one, he felt extremely excited.

This is what everyone expects, a sign of prosperity!

After finishing reading, Shen Lanxi looked a little excited.

"I am grateful for the kindness of all foreign races, states, and generals and officials from all over my Great Zhou. I will work diligently in the future to create greater glory for my Great Zhou!"

Wang Bao: "If you have something to report, please report it. If not, please leave the court!"

All the officials left the court with mixed feelings.

On the way back, someone wanted to talk, but they just exchanged glances and then quickly parted ways.

The game is over. It's really over.

Shen Lanxi is truly unstoppable now and is everyone's favorite!

……

The court dress had already been made, and Liu Yanhui personally presented it to Shen Lanxi to wear.

"Your Majesty, the closer we get to the eve, the more we cannot relax!" Liu Yanhui couldn't let go until the coronation ceremony was over.

With the help of her maid, Shen Lanxi put on the dragon robe and the crown.

"Mr. Liu, come and take a look at my crown. Is it crooked?" Shen Lanxi said calmly.

Liu Yan looked up and looked at the man in front of him wearing a black and red dragon robe.

The dragon robe of the Great Zhou emperor was traditionally black, and it was worn by men in the past. After consultation, the Ministry of Rites finalized five versions, four with dark black patterns, one with a black base and dark red piping. Shen Lanxi chose the one with red piping.

Looking at it this way, it is more eye-catching than the pure black before. After their Majesties put it on, they look more imposing.

The crown continued the style of the previous dynasty and was worn by men with their hair in a bun.

"Your Majesty, why not choose another one?"

Three crowns were prepared, one for men to wear with their hair in a bun, and two for women to wear with their hair in a bun. The men's bun has a dragon pattern, while the women's has a phoenix pattern.

The reason given by Shen Lanxi was very simple: "This one is lighter and simpler!"

Liu Yanhui heard that she meant that she did not refuse to wear a women's crown, and her eyes fell on the crown with gorgeous workmanship and intricately piled with various jewels.

This crown looks like it weighs at least 10 kilograms. If you carry such a crown on your neck, your neck will probably break if you go to court early.

If you ask him, he will choose something lighter.

"I will take it and make some improvements to it in a moment, removing the heavy part on top."

Shen Lanxi smiled: "Liu Qing still understands me!"

Wei Dongzhu came.

"There's movement in the harem!"
