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

Zhang Zifen kept begging for mercy: "Miss, I am innocent. I did not scheme against my family."

Shen Lanxi said coldly: "Spreading rumors, plotting against your own family, pulling out your tongue, sewing your mouth, and peeling your face."

Chunxue raised his foot, pulled out a dagger from his boot, and was about to slash it at Zhang Zifen's face.

Old Madam Shen came to her senses and screamed.

"Wait... wait a minute!" Old Madam Shen screamed until her voice broke.

Everyone in the Shen family was also frightened. There was no conflict at all, so why was such a severe punishment imposed right away?

The face peeling she just mentioned, could it be the face peeling they were thinking of?

Thinking of this, everyone's hair stood on end.

"Lan Xi, what do you want to do?" Old Madam Shen subconsciously wanted to beg for mercy, but then she thought, this is no longer Dongchuan. She is an old lady with a title from the court. How dare Shen Lan Xi do anything to her?

"This is home, not your military camp. Besides, you are no longer a military general, so don't even think about showing off your power at home!" Old Madam Shen scolded with a stern face.

Shen Lanxi remained silent.

Zhang Zifen suddenly screamed.

Haruyuki had already slashed her face once and was preparing to slash her again.

"Stop it, tell your people to stop it. You evil creature, how dare you disobey your elders? Aren't you afraid that I will complain to the emperor?"

Shen Lanxi sat steadily: "I dare to do it, so I dare to take responsibility. The Shen family prospers together and suffers together. You can go and sue one and see."

She was never threatened!

Old Madam Shen only felt that her vision was darkening. This evil creature had such a black heart that he didn't even care about the lives and future of his family members?

How could such an evil star appear in their family!

Shen Lanxi: "It's not that I was ruthless, it's that Zhang Zifen went too far!"

Shen Conglian quickly tried to ease the situation: "Lan Xi, Zhang Zifen really didn't intend to take away your mother's housekeeping power. It was really your father's instruction."

Shen Congwen, who rushed over after hearing the scream, saw Zhang Zifen fainted on the ground with blood all over her face, and his eyes immediately turned red with anger.

"Shen Lanxi, what do you want to do?"

Shen Lanxi looked coldly at her furious father: "Since you returned to Beijing, Zhang Zifen has been taking advantage of her position as the head of the main house to amass a fortune. She has also relied on the Shen family's reputation to lend money at high interest rates and even contacted the prince. I won't tell you which prince it is, you can check it out for yourselves!"

Shen Congwen's expression changed instantly.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible, Zhang Zifen doesn't have that much ability!"

Shen Lanxi: "I don't know how capable she is, I only know that when she is liquidated, these will be the evidence!"

Old Madam Shen's expression also changed.

"Ouch, old man, my head hurts..."

Shen Congwen and others rushed forward, showing concern and calling for a doctor.

"I will be leaving the capital tomorrow for some business, and I don't know when I will be back. In the meantime, if any of you commit a crime and are caught, don't blame me for being unable to put out a nearby fire."

After saying this, she got up and left.

After she left, Old Madam Shen slowly recovered.

"Boss, quickly lock up Zhang Zifen and interrogate her thoroughly. From now on, don't leave the matters in your room to your aunt. I will do it for you!" Thinking about the things that had been added to the main room in the past few years, Old Lady Shen felt better.

Shen Congwen asked with concern: "Mother, are you too tired?"

Old Madam Shen looked at Shen Congwen lovingly and said, "Son, you have to serve as an official in the court and take care of the children at home to study. Mother is afraid that you will be tired."

After hearing this, Shen Congwen was so moved that he wanted to give the key to the storeroom in the big house to his mother right away.

As for Zhang Zifen, the old lady had always disliked her. If it weren't for the fact that she had been pregnant for the past few years and had been giving birth to children for the Shen family, she would have sent her back to her hometown long ago.

"Lock her up in the woodshed. We'll deal with her after we find out what she did. If what Lan Xi said is true, she will not be let off easily!"

One sentence determined Zhang Zifen's future destiny.

Shen Lanxi had already received the news about the martial arts examination. When she returned to the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion, she immediately called everyone to discuss what to do next.

"I will be at the Imperial Mausoleum in ten days at the slowest and three days at the fastest. The martial arts exam is coming up soon, so let's arrange for our people to go to the finals."

Wei Dongzhu: "Tomorrow, before you leave, we will draw up a list."

Shen Lanxi: "Okay."

In addition to the martial arts examination, Wei Dongzhu and others are also very concerned about Shen Lanxi's safety.

If something happened to Shen Lanxi, all of them would fall apart in an instant.

"The court will definitely send someone to accompany you when you go to the imperial mausoleum this time. To be on the safe side, I suggest that you add more people to guard in secret." Liu Yan replied.

Shen Lanxi: "Ban Si Cao will accompany me as a guard. In addition to the people who are close to me, pick 20 people from the hidden positions."

Che Mingyuan: "Will it be a little less?" There are many people in the court who are afraid of them.

Shen Lanxi: "It's not the quantity of soldiers that matters, but their quality. The imperial mausoleum is not far away, and there are many villages on the road, so nothing will go wrong."

This is the only arrangement we have now. If we mobilize too many people, it would be bad if we were discovered!

Che Mingyuan volunteered to go along, but was rejected by Shen Lanxi.

"You are in charge of the overall situation in the capital, and you should remain unchanged in the face of ever-changing circumstances."

Che Mingyuan was happy but also felt a little unworthy of being given such an important task.

He didn't make any outstanding contribution to Shen Lanxi. In terms of combat strategies, he was not as good as generals like Wei Dongzhu. But in terms of making plans, she could do it on her own.

Sometimes he even doubted whether he was dispensable.

Hearing Shen Lanxi say this, Che Mingyuan felt very relieved. Before joining Shen Lanxi, he still looked down on women in his heart. After joining Shen Lanxi, his contempt was repeatedly beaten by the strength and wisdom shown by Shen Lanxi. No matter what he had in mind when he joined Shen Lanxi before, he had no second thoughts now.

Everyone left one after another, leaving only Wei Dongzhu behind.

"Lan Xi..."

Shen Lanxi raised the corner of her mouth: "You stay and have dinner with me!"

Wei Dongzhu replied briskly: "Okay!"

……

She had already expected that Emperor Renxiao would send Zhou Ruyuan to accompany him, but she didn't expect that Zhou Ruyuan would be accompanied by people from the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Personnel, and there were many unfamiliar faces among the guards.

Zhou Ruyuan saw Shen Lanxi's eyes sweeping around behind him and explained, "They are all warriors who have been with me through thick and thin."

Regardless of the identities of these people or who appointed them, they are all people from the imperial court.

Shen Lanxi nodded: "Time is running out, let's go!"

Zhou Ruyuan: "Would you like to take a car or a horse?"

Shen Lanxi: "Riding a horse, how about you?"

Zhou Ruyuan paused and said, "Of course, I'm riding a horse!"

After running for a while, when she was resting, someone next to her came to report.

"There is a carriage following behind the Zhennan King's team."

Shen Lanxi's eyes flashed, and she said, "I know, you just keep watching!"

After a while, the latest news was delivered here.

"Although the person in the carriage did not show up, it should be a woman. The King of Zhennan brought the food into the carriage."

Shen Lanxi just found it funny. They were inseparable when they went out on business trips, and he still had the nerve to talk about friendship with her?
