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

She is Shen Lanxi's sister from the same mother, and she deserves to be a princess.

She saved the people and won their support, but Shen Lanxi only gave her a small title of county lady, which was a slap in her face!

What a lousy county lady! She doesn't want that!

Shen Yuantang struggled to throw the imperial edict into the corner.

……

"Now that Shen Yuantang has been named the county lord, she will definitely become even more arrogant!"

"She has been acting so abnormal these past few days. She saved the children in the mansion and saved civilians on the street. Each step seems to be a coincidence, but there are not so many coincidences in the world."

Shen Yuanxin was a little panicked. She had been living in the mansion with her two children and had been targeted by Shen Yuantang both openly and covertly. Now that she had gained the upper hand, her status in the mansion would definitely rise. She could no longer sit there and wait for death.

Soon, Shen Lanxi received another letter from home.

Shen Yuanxin and the second son of Liu Mao, the chief clerk of the Imperial Observatory, are in love with each other, and a matchmaker has come to propose marriage.

Also included were the reputation and family introductions of Liu Mao and the second young master.

Liu Yun passed the imperial examination in the second year of Chongwu, and was later arranged by his father to work in the Imperial Observatory. He is currently the calendar director of the Imperial Observatory. He is a loyal and honest person. Last year, he separated from his family and got a house, some gold, silver, money and shops. He lost his wife and had no children.

"Go check the home of Liu Mao from the Imperial Observatory!"

Soon she received a reply, which included a portrait of the second son of Liu Mao and information about his wife's demise.

It is obvious that the family said that the two of them are in love with each other, and it was not introduced by a matchmaker. The matchmaker has already proposed marriage, and it is possible that the two of them have already secretly decided to spend their lives together.

If she disagrees, she will be regarded as the villain who breaks up the couple.

With a few drops of ink, he picked up the pen and wrote two words.

agree!

After receiving the reply, the Shen family immediately began to arrange things for Shen Yuanxin.

Although the Liu family is a small family and Liu Yun is only a lowly fifth-rank official, if Shen Yuanxin is still unmarried, such a family would not even be worthy of carrying shoes for the Shen family.

After all, Shen Yuanxin has been married once and has two children.

Although Liu Yun had been married once, his wife was widowed and he had no children, just like a newlywed. Moreover, Liu Yun was handsome and two years younger than Shen Yuanxin.

She is barely worthy of Shen Yuanxin.

When Shen Yuanxin got married for the first time, she had a small dowry, and after the divorce, she got back a limited amount. At that time, the future of the Shen family was uncertain, and everyone was worried about their own safety. No one paid attention to the marriage of a concubine's daughter.

Things are different now. Shen Yuantang was conferred the title of County Princess, which sent a signal to the girls in the family.

One day, they will also be granted the titles of county princess and princess, and by imperial decree, princess.

The wedding banquet cannot be sloppy, and the dowry cannot be sloppy even more.

After hearing the news that Shen Yuanxin had arrived at the palace, she immediately went to get her aunt.

Wei Rulan, who had been ill for a long time, finally recovered and sat in the pavilion where Shen Congwen passed by every day waiting.

Dressed in brocade, with a neat plant sitting on the table, Shen Congwen rested in Wei Rulan's room that night.

The next day, Shen Congwen talked to Zhou Xinrou about the dowry.

"Don't worry, I will arrange it even if you don't tell me."

Zhou Xinrou's coldness made Shen Congwen feel frightened. After hearing this, he kept his promise and went to Wei Rulan's yard immediately after leaving the main courtyard.

"Princess, once Shen Yuantang was named county princess, all the evildoers in the courtyard came back to life." The old woman said maliciously.

Zhou Xinrou's face darkened. She became furious when she thought of the last memorial she wrote to request a title for Huang Yu.

She clearly knew that she had no blood relationship with the Shen family, but he still supported the Shen family, showing that he didn't take her seriously at all.

"Wait till Huang Yu is fired tonight and call her over!"

"Princess, this won't do. There are so many eyes staring at this place in the backyard."

Zhou Xinrou also knew that she was too impulsive. If she hadn't been thinking about Pingjinmen, she wouldn't have been so timid.

After waiting for a few days, news came again from Tianjin that the emperor's uncle Zhou Yanji led his people to join Zhou Ruyuan.

The Tianjin Express was delivered to Shen Lanxi at an expedited speed of 800 miles.

"This Zhou Yanji, he usually stays in the sand dunes planting radishes, pretending to be a peace-loving person. I didn't expect that he would be the first to stand up!" Mei Nanhua frowned and criticized Zhou Yanji.

Liu Mingxin also expressed his concerns: "Before, this person was law-abiding. When the previous emperor ascended the throne, he was the first to stand up and submit. The more such a person is, the deeper the conspiracy behind it will be."

Shen Lanxi disagreed. A truly skilled hunter would not be lured out so easily.

"The court's express message must be countered forcefully."

The next day at the imperial court, veteran officials, led by Mei Nanhua, Liu Mingxin and Wu Yanzhi, strongly criticized Zhou Yanji.

"He has forgotten his roots and joined the bandits who are colluding with foreigners. This is no different from collaborating with the enemy and selling out his country!"

"Zhou Ruyuan angered the late emperor to death. He is disobedient and unfilial. If you associate with such a person, you will be an accomplice to the tiger and bring about your own destruction!"

The court officials were immediately inspired to criticize Zhou Yanji. Shen Lanxi took the opportunity to strip Zhou Yanji of his title and labeled him a traitor.

At the Shen family, Zhou Xinrou, who was about to take action, slowly put down her butcher knife.

“I didn’t expect that old guy would actually stand up.”

"Princess, His Majesty is right. Now is not the time for us to take action. Let's just sit and watch how they fight!"

Zhou Xinrou didn't believe the news, so she immediately called the secret guards in Tianjin and asked them to find out the news.

She had only finished sending out half of her order when the secret letter from the Tianjin secret guards arrived in her hands.

"It turned out to be true!"

"That old thief Zhou Yanji has endured it for so long, why doesn't he continue to endure it?"

"Princess, the emperor is a woman after all. How could any man in the world willingly be suppressed by a woman? She is destined to not be able to sit firmly on the throne."

"Instead of us taking action, why not let her lead the way and clear the obstacles for us? Isn't it better?"

Zhou Xinrou was persuaded.

……

Che Mingyuan sent a message saying that he was ready to activate the Plan No. 2 they had discussed.

Shen Lanxi replied with a "yes", and three days later, Che Mingyuan started to compete with Zhou Ruyuan in Dongchuan.

"Zhou Ruyuan, look who they are?"

"They are the women and children in your harem. If you want them to live, you should carry a thorn on your back and follow me to the capital to apologize to His Majesty and the people of the world!"

Che Mingyuan was not stupid. He did not go near the entrance, but started to challenge and criticize in the heart of Dongchuan, where there were heavy troops surrounding him.

This not only ensures their safety, but also makes Zhou Ruyuan very angry.

The news soon reached Zhou Ruyuan's ears, and even if Zhou Qiwu's people wanted to cover it up, they couldn't.

The news spread like wildfire, and the whole of Dongchuan was talking about it.

"If Zhou Ruyuan doesn't agree, he will be disregarding the lives of the women and children in the harem. He is vicious and heartless."

"If he agrees..."

Che Mingyuan didn't say the rest because he knew that Zhou Ruyuan would not agree so easily.

What follows is a tug-of-war of you advancing and me retreating, depending on whether Zhou Ruyuan still wants to maintain his reputation.

Whether he likes it or not, the label of being cold-blooded and heartless will definitely be put on his head.
