Rebirth: The wedding night, my whole family was exiled, I raised 500,000 soldiers
Chapter 576 The only thing that is better than Shen is his male identity!Yuan Lang: "The first thing we have to do is to win over those people and get them and the forces behind them in our hands!"
When Zhou Ruyuan heard him say this, he slowly calmed down.
"I understand what the Imperial Master means. I have already sent people to make friends with them."
Yuan Lang said solemnly: "It's not enough, just making friends is not enough!"
Zhou Ruyuan pondered for a moment and said, "Then make them kings and grant them power."
That's pretty much it.
Yuan Lang: "They were already princes before, so they don't care about the empty title of prince."
Zhou Ruyuan frowned: "Could it be that we cede our interests and give them fiefdoms?"
Yuan Lang naturally knew that Zhou Ruyuan was unwilling, and no emperor wanted his territory to be divided up. There was no difference between dividing the land and splitting it.
"Your Majesty, now is the time when we need strength. If we don't give them some sweet treats, how can they be loyal to us?"
"Especially the old fox Zhou Yanxing. He had been pretending to be indifferent to the world, hoping to reap the benefits. Unfortunately, he waited and waited, and the fisherman became someone else."
"He's so impatient to jump out now because he's too old to wait any longer. If Shen Lanxi was a little weaker, he would have rebelled a long time ago."
Zhou Ruyuan thought more about it. Now he had no choice but to use interests to tie them together. When he succeeded, he could get rid of those who had ulterior motives.
Such acts of crossing a river and destroying the bridge are not uncommon throughout the ages!
"Okay, let the Imperial Master negotiate and arrange where to assign the fiefdoms."
Yuan Lang felt relieved when he saw that Zhou Ruyuan did not act impulsively.
If Zhou Ruyuan was not a man, he would really be unwilling to assist.
Whether in terms of brains, decision-making ability, strength or luck, he cannot compare to Shen Lanxi.
The only thing that surpasses Shen Lanxi is the man’s identity.
This world is destined to be a man's world. Just based on this point, Shen Lanxi lost!
……
After Zhang Chuchu's funeral, Shen Yuanhao was supposed to leave, but Shen Lanxi, thinking of his wife's death, did not urge him.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Chuchu hadn't even used it on the seventh day, but something went wrong with Shen Yuanhao.
The Zhang family designed Zhang Chuchu's sister to climb into Shen Yuanhao's bed.
When Shen Lanxi found out about this, the third house had already started arranging for Zhang's daughter.
The Shen family turned a deaf ear to her words about observing mourning for the death of her wife!
"I feel sorry for the woman who lost her life giving birth, but they think I am kind."
The written paper was handed to her.
The Shen family has not yet informed Your Majesty.
Shen Lanxi pushed the paper back.
"How bold of them to even think of informing me at the last minute."
After a while, the paper was handed to her again.
I can't protect them for their whole life, so let's wait and see what happens.
Shen Lanxi laughed without any warmth.
Soon the letter from the Shen family arrived.
It’s not about Zhang Chuchu’s sister, but about the adoption.
The next day, she asked someone to deliver three handwritten letters to the Shen family.
"Your Majesty said that he is busy with other things and will not issue an imperial decree."
"I have three handwritten letters now. Just treat them as letters to my family. My family can read them or not. You can act according to them or not. Even if you don't act according to them, I won't blame you."
If it is not an imperial edict, there is no need to read it out.
The eunuch left a handwritten letter and left.
The Shen family immediately opened the first handwritten letter, which was concise and clear: Zhang Churan disobeyed the order and was sentenced to death!
With a thud, the letter fell to the ground.
"Why was he sentenced to death?" Miao murmured to herself with a pale face.
Hu Jinyu immediately remembered what Shen Lanxi said when Zhang Chuchu died.
"Your Majesty said that if a man from the Shen family loses his wife, he will mourn for three years!"
Miao's face turned even paler, and she forced an explanation, "Didn't Zhang Chuchu later say that we didn't need to observe mourning, and didn't His Majesty agree?"
Hu Jinyu sighed, "Aunt San, Chuchu said we should mourn for half a year, but she didn't say we don't have to."
Miao sat back in her chair in a daze, looking pale and saying nothing.
"Hurry up and read the second handwritten letter!"
The second one: Marry Zhang Churan in half a year.
"No, she can't be my son's wife. My son must never marry another girl from the Zhang family." Miao was the first to stand up and object.
Hu Jinyu's face was full of surprise. Didn't they ask them to come over to discuss welcoming the newlyweds?
Why don’t you get married again?
Could it be... taking a concubine?
His Majesty said before that men of the Shen family only marry one wife and do not take concubines. What are these people thinking?
Shen Lanxi is now the emperor, and what she said before is the imperial decree.
Are they trying to disobey the order?
Hu Jinyu pursed her lips with a bad look on her face, stepped aside and said no more.
Shen Congli frowned and said, "Zhang Chuchu died before because of the disparity in family background. My son must not marry a girl who is not of the same social status as him."
The second and fourth rooms also heard it.
"Let's take a look at the third letter!" Shen Congwen reminded.
Shen Congli hurriedly opened the third letter.
The Zhang family had evil ambitions and wanted to kill the entire clan.
With a plop, the letter from home fell to the ground again.
Shen Congli's hands were shaking. This wasn't a letter from home; it was a death warrant!
Shen Yuanhao: "It can't be because of our family, or the entire Zhang family!"
That leaves only the first two options.
One is dead, the other is alive.
One will have a bright future, while the other will be neither high nor low, and will be stuck with a group of brainless relatives who she can't get rid of.
"How to choose?"
Even a fool knows how to choose. It’s just that it involves a life, and no one wants to be the bad guy.
"Wife Yuanxu, you have the right idea. Please tell us about it." Miao asked hurriedly.
Hu Jinyu didn't want to be involved in this matter. If it failed, he would be labeled a bad guy in the end.
"You shouldn't ask me about this, you should ask Yuanhao. This concerns Yuanhao's future and the rest of his life, and none of us can make the decision for him."
No matter who makes the decision, there will be complaints in the end. Instead of letting Shen Yuanhao blame others, it is better for him to make the decision himself.
Shen Yuanhao was pushed, as if he was awakened from a dream.
There were dark circles under his eyes, his face was full of regret, and his expression was silent and sad. He was not much better than when he just returned to the capital.
"Yuan Hao, we can't accept someone's daughter like this. Have you forgotten how Zhang Chuchu died?"
"Mother is telling you the truth. I have been hiding it from you because I was afraid you would be distracted when you were away."
"Zhang Chuchu often takes things from our room to her parents' home. At that time, mother thought that we had already separated, and she was just taking things from your room, so she didn't say anything. After checking the accounts these past two days, I found that Zhang Chuchu gave most of the money and property you earned with your military exploits to her parents' home. She is a house-stealing rat, a big rat. She emptied our house and enriched her parents' home!"
Shen Yuanhao widened his eyes in anger.
"Is what mother said true?"
Miao shed tears and said, "Son, how dare I fake this? If you don't believe me, go to Zhang's house and take a look. Many of the things in your room will become hers!"
"I don't feel sorry for things..."
Liu has been her sister-in-law for many years, so how could she not know her temper?
She said this because she felt sorry for the thing.
"Sister-in-law, you are quite patient!"
I have to say that Liu is a stabber.
