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

Shen Yuantang said pitifully: "Big sister, have you not forgiven me yet?"

Shen Lanxi: "I have forgiven you."

Shen Yuantang said anxiously: "Then why don't you speak up for me?"

Shen Lanxi glanced at her left and right. Such a well-behaved maid must be from the palace!

"Instead of begging me here, why not go to the palace and beg Concubine Shu. She is the mother of the Prince of Zhennan, and her words are more effective than anyone else's!"

Shen Yuantang moved her lips and seemed to want to say something several times but stopped herself. The pride in her heart would not allow her to bow her head and beg Shen Lanxi.

She is also the daughter of a princess. Why don't the Queen Mother and His Majesty love her as much as they love her elder sister?

She and the prince have not yet consummated their marriage, and Concubine Shu has sent people to warn her several times. How can she consummate her marriage when she can't even see the prince?

The servants in the palace all said that the prince still had feelings for the eldest sister, and that the position of Princess Zhennan would still belong to the eldest sister in the future.

She and her elder sister are real sisters. Her elder sister has not even entered the palace. Does she want to monopolize the prince and not allow him to be close to her?

When the elder sister did this, did she ever think about her own situation? Did she no longer want her younger sister?

When the maid saw Shen Lanxi walking away, she walked over to Shen Yuantang with a stern face.

"Concubine, don't forget what the queen told you."

Shen Yuantang subconsciously touched his knees, and his knees seemed to start to ache again.

Today is different from the past. After Shen Lanxi successfully presided over the imperial examination and was then conferred the title of Duke of Juding, some people who were accustomed to currying favor with the powerful and changing their attitude according to the wind had already seen which direction the wind was blowing.

The Shen family is fine for the time being.

This time, there were more people attending Madam Shen’s birthday party than before.

Shen Lanxi also invited Wei Dongzhu, and the two of them stood on the left and right to help the Shen Mansion welcome guests.

The guests saw it all and knew what was going on.

Today, several unmarried princesses in the palace also came to the mansion to celebrate the birthday. Shen Lanxi glanced in the direction of her mother calmly and whispered a few words to the people around her.

It’s not that the men of the Shen family cannot marry the princess, but they cannot do it by using despicable means.

"Sir, the master is looking for you." A servant from the Shen residence came to report.

Shen Lanxi frowned: "What's the matter?"

"The master didn't say anything, he just told you to go through."

Liu: "Lan Xi, go over there. Your father is looking for you. He must have something."

Madam Shen smiled and said, "Go ahead."

Shen Lanxi stood up and left. When she went over, Shen Yuantang was grabbing Shen Congwen's hand and begging, and the latter looked annoyed.

"Lan Xi, your sister knows she was wrong. You are sisters. If you have any conflicts, you should resolve them at home. When you are outside, you still have to stand together."

Shen Yuantang wiped her tears pitifully. "Big sister, I know I was wrong. Please forgive me this time because I am young and ignorant!"

Shen Lanxi frowned and looked at her dimly.

"I've already said it before, I forgive you. What else are you looking for father for?"

Shen Congwen turned to look at Shen Yuantang: "Have you already looked for your elder sister?"

Shen Yuantang said unnaturally: "Big sister just said such cold and harsh words, I can only come to my father to ask for mercy."

Shen Congwen's face immediately turned unhappy: "Lan Xi, sisters don't hold grudges overnight. Yuan Tang is your sister. Even if there is a huge hatred, can't you, as a sister, give in to her? Besides, it's not a big deal!"

Shen Lanxi smiled coldly: "I said I have forgiven her, what else does father want me to say?" Is it possible that he wants me, who has done nothing wrong, to kneel down with someone who has done something wrong?

When Shen Congwen heard her strong tone, he subconsciously frowned and scolded her.

"She is your sister, not your enemy. Why are you so persistent and disregarding the relationship between siblings? What do you want to do?"

Shen Lanxi just felt it was ironic: "From the beginning to the end, wasn't she the one who refused to let go?"

"Father, you didn't even understand why she came to me, but you asked me to forgive her and criticized me. Father, you are so biased and targeting me. Don't you want to consider the relationship between father and daughter?"

It came again and again. Shen Congwen glared at Shen Lanxi with a dark face, and the anger in his heart rose steadily.

What kind of daughter would talk back to her father like this? What kind of girl would be as cruel and ruthless as her? What kind of girl would be as public as her?

It was a complete disgrace to Shen Congwen.

"Big sister, how can you talk to father like that?" Shen Yuantang stood beside Shen Congwen and accused him angrily.

Shen Lanxi sneered: "You were so pitiful just a moment ago, and now you are so bossy. Are you here to ask for forgiveness? Or do you just want to take the opportunity to drag your father to blame me?"

Shen Congwen pointed at Shen Lanxi angrily and scolded: "You are the elder sister, how can you speak so harshly to your sister? Do you still have a little love for her?"

Shen Lanxi looked at the father and daughter indifferently: "Since I came here, I have never been harsh to anyone. But my father and sister took turns to loudly criticize me. I just want to ask my father, why do you dislike me so much?"

Shen Congwen choked. It was difficult for him to answer this question. There was no such thing as liking it or not.

"Father just can't stand the way you are so cold and indifferent to your family."

Shen Lanxi: "Where is it ruthless? Where is it cold and indifferent? Please explain it to me, father."

Shen Congwen had a lot to say: "Is there anyone who talks back to his elders like you? You asked the Prince of Zhennan to confine Yuan Tang to the palace, which was cruel to your sister. Shen Lanxi, how can you be so cruel to your family?"

Shen Lanxi looked at the father and daughter who had similar expressions and even similar tones, and smiled coldly.

"Every month I have people send one thousand taels to the mansion for spending. Most of the tonic herbs used by my grandmother and the elders in each family are sent to the mansion by me. Every time there is a reward from the palace, I also have people send half to the mansion. The brocade my father wears, the jade pendant hanging around his waist, the jade crown in his hair, and the leather shoes on his feet are all from the Juding Mansion. If this is considered ruthless, then I admit it!"

Shen Congwen subconsciously rubbed the warm jade on his waist, and felt uncomfortable on his face.

"If I'm not mistaken, the purple jade and red hairpin in Yuantang's hair and the eight-treasure gold bracelet on her hand were all given by me. Oh, and the gorgeous brocade you're wearing today was given by the Persian envoy. After returning to Beijing, I gave it to my sister. Father, sister, am I heartless?"

Shen Yuantang's hand under his sleeve clenched the bracelet tightly.

If she had known that her elder sister was so petty, she would not have worn anything she gave her.

"Big sister, we are talking about my grounding, why are you talking about that?"

"When I returned to Beijing from Dongchuan, I also used my savings to support my family. I also put a lot of the things I brought from Dongchuan into the warehouse. This is just a little bit of filial piety from the children of the Shen family. Not only me, but also my father, mother, uncles, aunts, brothers, sisters, and sisters all used their savings to support our family. We have less things and cannot compare with my eldest sister, but we all took out the most valuable things we had."

Shen Lanxi said coldly: "Do you take it every month?"
