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

Chapter 372: Zhou Chengan, the bastard of Prince Ji’s Mansion!

"Princess, here we come!"

Shen Yuanhe and Shen Yuanrui bowed and saluted.

"This is a gift from me to my two younger sisters. Please don't despise it."

Shen Yuanhe and Shen Yuanrui's eyes flickered and they took the gifts hesitantly.

Since the princess had called the Shen family over, even if it was a gift, each of the sisters should have received one. But now she was giving it to them separately, what did that mean?

The two did not dare to show it and stepped aside holding the box.

"I will be marrying into the Shen family soon, and we will be a family from now on."

Except for Shen Lanxi, everyone else in the Shen family had a forced smile.

Shen Lanxi: "I see the princess is in a bad mood. Since we are a family in the future, there will definitely be a long time for us to grow up. We won't disturb you anymore!" She said and stood up.

Zhou Yunsui turned to look at the eldest princess. Hasn’t she finished speaking yet?

"I want to know more about the Shen Mansion!"

Zhou Yunshang stopped her loudly: "Sister Yunsui caught a cold yesterday, and she came here today despite her illness. Lan Xi is right, there is a long way to go. If you have anything to say, wait until you marry into the Shen family!"

Zhou Yunsui looked away, then immediately pretended to cough and waved her hands.

"I am not feeling well, so I won't send you more."

……

Except for Shen Lanxi, all the girls in the Shen family ran around as if they were fleeing.

"Lan Xi, this Tenth Princess doesn't seem easy to get along with!"

Hu Jinyu glanced at her mother-in-law and asked in confusion, "The tenth princess' mother is only a talented person, not favored, and usually not prominent in the harem. I really don't know why she was allowed to come to the last birthday banquet for my grandmother."

The management of the harem was strict. Even the queen was not allowed to leave the palace without the emperor's permission.

Shen Lanxi sneered and reminded: "Yun Sui's intention is obvious."

Hu Jinyu's eyes flashed, and she blurted out, "She wants to win over Yuan He and Yuan Rui, two sisters, and make them estranged from their family."

Shen Lanxi raised the corner of her mouth: "Shen Yuanxu, what a blessing!"

Hu Jinyu suddenly realized and shyly covered her face with a handkerchief.

……

The bandits in Xishan have been eliminated, and Zhou Ruyuan has requested an imperial decree to return to Beijing. The memorial has been kept in the imperial study for two days.

"Father, I, Cao's son, would like to stay for a few more days."

Emperor Renxiao frowned and began to reprimand his son: "What's the point of keeping that idiot?"

Zhou Rulin's eyes sparkled. "She completely offended Shen Lanxi at the flower viewing banquet. I thought it would be better to intensify the conflict between the two. Then I will come forward to deal with Cao, leaving Shen Lanxi with the impression that I am respectful and humble, helping the right instead of the relatives. Then I can recruit her and it will be a piece of cake."

Emperor Renxiao thought for a moment and nodded with satisfaction.

"Rulin, I'm sorry for wronging you!"

Zhou Rulin's eyes turned red, and he said firmly: "As long as the emperor thinks about his son, his son will not be wronged!"

Emperor Renxiao patted his son's shoulder and said calmly, "Go, you are still recovering from your illness, don't let anyone see you. Next time if you have any problems, just let someone close to you pass the message to me!"

Zhou Rulin was led out of the secret passage by Wang Bao.

Emperor Renxiao's eyes fell on the memorial, he stared at it for a while, then picked up his pen and began to reply to it.

~

"Sir, someone from Prince Ji's Mansion wants to see you!"

Shen Lanxi: "Who?"

Palace soldier: "The man refused to speak, and his clothes were ordinary, but he kept calling the master sister." That's why he came to report, because not everyone can see their master.

"Bring him in!"

"Yes!"

When Shen Lanxi saw the person, she recognized him immediately.

"Are you Xiaolang?" Zhou Yunxue often took the illegitimate son of Prince Ji out to play before she got married. Her relationship with him was better than that with her own brothers and sisters.

"Sister Lan Xi." Zhou Cheng'an lowered his head in embarrassment and pulled his clothes uncomfortably.

How come he was so thin that even his clothes couldn't hold on to him? If the outline of his face wasn't there, she wouldn't have recognized him.

"Come forward and raise your head. I won't eat you!" Shen Lanxi jokingly pointed to the seat next to her.

When Zhou Cheng'an saw his old friend, his eyes became red, and he felt even more ashamed of himself because of her aura.

"Sister Lan Xi, since my grandfather passed away, I was sent to a farm in the north."

Shen Lanxi recalled the timeline, that was when the drought was at its worst.

It is not easy for this child to live till now.

"When did you return to Beijing?"

Zhou Chengan: "It's been more than ten days since I heard that something happened to Sister Yunxue."

"I guessed that you came here for this matter. It's amazing that you still remember her!" Shen Lanxi sighed.

Zhou Chengan knelt down with a plop and begged, "Sister Lanxi, I came here today to ask you to seek justice for Sister Yunxue. Sister Yunxue has been engaged to the Yong'an Marquis Mansion since she was a child. Even if she fell into the water, she would not marry anyone else. Sister Yunxue was schemed against by them!"

Shen Lanxi had been looking at Zhou Chengan since he entered the room. After hearing what he said, she stopped looking at him.

"After Yunxue got into trouble, you are the only one who came to my door in Prince Ji's Mansion!" Maybe Prince Ji's Mansion had other ways, and Zhou Cheng'an had no choice but to come to her.

Hiding the deep thought in her eyes, she asked, "Xiao Lang, do you know that the Fang family in Xishan has been wiped out by bandits?"

This incident caused a lot of uproar, and Emperor Renxiao even sent Prince Zhennan to suppress it, so naturally everyone knew about it.

"I know. They all said that Sister Yunxue was killed by those bandits..." Zhou Cheng'an was so angry and hateful that he burst into tears before he could finish his sentence.

"It was obviously those bandits who harmed people, so why did they say that about my sister? Is it because the people who were hurt were not their relatives?" Zhou Cheng'an showed his edge at this moment, his eyes full of hatred.

Shen Lanxi saw this and agreed with this statement.

"You are right, young man, but the ethics today are very strict. Even if a woman is hurt, she will be considered unfaithful. Yunxue married to Xishan because of the word reputation."

Zhou Cheng'an felt helpless and sad. It was precisely because of the successive incidents in the mansion and the fact that the people who could protect him had either died or left that those people dared to attack him.

"Sister Lan Xi, I don't want those people to continue to frame my sister. I have no other choice. I finally managed to sneak out today. Please help my sister for the sake of our friendship with Sister Yun Xue!"

Shen Lanxi looked at the young man who was defending her sister with dignity and without arrogance, and her heart was not touched. He was just telling lies.

"I will give her an explanation about Yunxue's matter!"

When Zhou Chengan heard her say this, he immediately burst into tears of gratitude and kept bowing his head to express his gratitude.

"Thank you, Sister Lan Xi!"

Shen Lanxi: "Just now you said you sneaked out of the house, what happened?"

Zhou Chengan wiped his tears hastily and felt embarrassed again.

"My family arranged a marriage for me, so they sent someone to bring me back to the capital."

"Whose daughter?" She would actually marry into the Ji Wang Mansion which was already beginning to fall into disrepair?
