Chapter 299 How quickly the Shen family changed their faces!
The Wei family's army has 400,000 heroic souls, which is enough for Wei Dongzhu to bloodbath their family regardless of going crazy.
"Lan Xi, you must believe in father!" After Shen Congwen finished speaking, he hurriedly begged Wei Dongzhu.
"General Wei, the time on this document is different from the time when I signed it. I swear, I really did not sign this document."
Wei Dong gradually prevailed. Dan Yunqing naturally believed in Shen Congwen's words.
Because she had made this document in advance and put it here for him. The seal was made by a skilled craftsman in front of him, and the handwriting was copied and signed by students from Qinglan Academy. Including the paper used for this document, she had it found in front of him.
At first, he didn’t understand the purpose of making a fake document. Could it be that it was to confirm her father’s guilt?
If true, it would be incredible.
Now this time, he finally understood. It must be said that she was prescient.
The Shen family has the power to make the decision, and now everyone is looking eagerly at Shen Lanxi, who has easily taken control of the Shen family.
Wei Dongzhu's eyes were filled with smiles.
Shen Lanxi: "Of course I believe in my father."
Old Mrs. Shen: "Quick, quick, quick, quickly move a chair for Lan Xi to sit down and talk!"
Wei Dongzhu: "..."
Shen Lanxi sat down on the chair brought by her father calmly and said calmly: "This must be an enemy who wants to assassinate our Shen family and use it to frame our Shen family."
Everyone in the Shen family nodded like garlic and listened to Shen Lanxi's words honestly.
"However, this document is important evidence in the Wei Jiajun case, and I can't make the decision."
Shen Congwen quickly asked Wei Dongzhu to sit down.
"General Wei, sit down and say it, sit down and say it quickly."
Wei Dongzhu looked at the tea cup that Father Shen put in front of him, and deliberately said coldly: "The Wei family army has 400,000 heroic souls. We can’t die in vain. I know that the Shen family is innocent, but people in the world don’t know that Mr. Shen must have had a hard time in the Ministry of Finance.”
Shen Congwen let out a long sigh: "Although I am the head of the household department in name, I am just an empty post."
Mrs. Shen also began to pour out her bitterness: "The Wei Jiajun understands the righteousness and is willing to believe in our Shen family." , but other people don’t think so, let’s just say that these juniors in the family are all of marriageable age. , no male came to our door to propose marriage. Although the girls in the family occasionally proposed marriage, they were from a low-class family. They secretly and openly asked our family for more dowries. Seeing that every one of the girls was missing their flowering period, I am a grandmother. , I am so worried that I can’t sleep well.”
The rest of the Shen family sighed together.
Shen Lanxi: "It is because I know that the Shen family has been wronged that I will pursue the investigation."
Mrs. Shen took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of her eyes: "Lan Xi, I knew you were a good person. ”
Shen Lanxi: "Wu's matter should be resolved as soon as possible. As for the marriage of the sons and daughters in the family, I will find a way."
Everyone in the Shen family opened their mouths to thank.
"Lan Xi, you are thoughtful."
"Lan Xi, thank you."
"Don't worry, Lan Xi, the Wu family will be properly handled. Don’t leave any excuses for others.”
Wei Dongzhu reminded softly: "General, there are still things to deal with in the army."
Old Mrs. Shen: "Things in the army are more important than at home. Lan Xi, hurry up and get busy!"
Shen Lanxi stood up: "Ms. Wu, I'm going to trouble grandma."
After everyone in the Shen family watched Shen Lanxi go out, they immediately surrounded Shen Congwen and asked about the signature.
The next day, an invitation was sent from the Queen's Palace, inviting the Shen family to the Hundred Flowers Banquet three days later.
This was the first flower-viewing banquet held by the royal family in six years, and also the first informal banquet held in the capital. In the past, there was turmoil in the northwest and Dongchuan, and the Great Zhou Dynasty was in turmoil. The palace was frugal on all expenses, and no banquets were held in the palace. No one among the officials and people below dared to be extravagant.
This Hundred Flowers Banquet is the first happy event for all the major shops in the capital, and they all bring out the best things.
Before, the capital was depressed and no one dared to wear bright clothes. The cloth shops accumulated a lot of bright materials. Taking advantage of this opportunity, they all moved out and sold them.
Silver House, Gold Shop, Rouge Shop, even more exhausted their strength to ride the east wind.
Mrs. Shen took the female family members out early in the morning to go shopping, pretending to be attending a banquet in the palace, and she did it with all the splendor.
The men and women in the family were even more dressed up and taken out to appear.
Shen Lanxi was sitting on the second floor of the restaurant, looking sideways at the Shen family outside the window.
"General, Your Majesty sent an imperial edict to Dongchuan to summon Zhou Ruyuan back to the capital!" After Haruyuki read the note, he destroyed it.
She had received the urgent news from Dongchuan a few days ago, and she expected that it was time for Zhou Ruyuan to return to Beijing.
"Send an urgent letter to Northwest. Zhou Ruyuan will return to Beijing. Zhou Ruan must be anxious staying in Northwest."
Chun Xue: "Yes!"
After another day, Shen Lanxi received the news , the Shen family sent Wu to a villa on the outskirts of Beijing. And Zhou Xinrou came back with her children.
Seeing her mother again, Shen Lanxi was a little afraid to recognize her.
When she was in Dongchuan, her mother had been sick and weak. After returning to Beijing, she went to the Royal Temple to recuperate. After careful calculation, she had only seen her mother a few times in the past six years.
The last time we met was in Dongchuan. My mother had been injured for a long time and she didn't see anyone else. She only saw a profile through the crack in the door.
My mother has changed significantly this time, her health is getting better, and she is dressed in a princess robe, which makes her look very majestic.
“Mother.”
Zhou Xinrou glanced at her daughter flatly and then looked away.
“Be sure to be prepared for the Hundred Flowers Banquet tomorrow!”
Shen Lanxi lowered her eyes, and no one could clearly see the emotion in her eyes.
"Yes, thank you for your concern, mother."
Zhou Xinrou turned around and entered the home.
Shen Lanxi watched her mother's back walking further and further away, and remained silent for a long time.
The night before the Hundred Flowers Banquet, Ban Sicao skillfully poured the tea from the teacup into the flowerpot in the corner.
"It's over or not, this is the first time we've had poisoned tea since we returned to Beijing. Why are we going to all the trouble when we know we can't let go?" Ban Sicao threw the teacup out of the window in disgust.
“It’s poisonous again?” Shen Lanxi asked with a smile.
Ban Sicao said angrily: "Your Zhenbeihou Mansion has let outsiders set up a sieve."
Shen Lanxi: "I cleaned up a lot when I just returned to Beijing. He died yesterday. Three died, four died today . If this spreads, others will think that my house is a den of tigers and wolves."
Ban Sicao: "It's not a den of tigers and wolves, it's also a den of rats. The number of rats killed by other people's medicines is not as high as yours. ! ”
Shen Lanxi: "Some people spent a lot of money to kill me. After giving me the medicine, those people took the poison and committed suicide, and no investigation could find it."
Ban Sicao was worried about Shen Lanxi.
"Who is it? What kind of hatred do I have against you? I can't kill you, so you're not willing to accept it, are you?"
Shen Lanxi tapped her fingers on the table.
“Although I don’t know who it is, one thing is certain, the person who wants to kill me is in the capital.”
