Chapter 640: Madam Shen pushes Shen Congyi to ascend the throne!
As soon as Mrs. Shen left, Shen Congli called the eldest and second brothers together.
"Brother, mother has brought the fourth child into the palace." He felt a little depressed. Even if someone was to succeed to the throne, it should be his grandson. His grandson was the adopted child acknowledged by Lan Xi herself.
The mother took the fourth child there without even asking him a question. This was totally against the rules.
Shen Congwen just felt a headache and had no other thoughts.
"Let mother make a fuss. No one will pay attention to her. She will be back soon."
There are so many people in the court, and every one of them is cunning and treacherous. What can my mother do if she is gone?
Shen Congli began to complain in his heart again. His eldest brother didn't look like the eldest son at all. If his eldest brother could support the family, it would have been a man from their Shen family who sat on the throne, not a woman.
They looked at Shen Lanxi's expression for such a long time, why didn't the eldest brother understand?
Shen Lanxi deserves it for not taking her elder brother seriously as a father.
"Why are you in such a hurry? I think what my eldest brother said is right. Even if Lan Xi is really dead, there is no capable person in the fourth brother's family. Whoever sits on the throne will not be someone from his room." Shen Conglian said calmly.
Among the four families, only Yuan Xu was outstanding, and then there was his grandson Cheng Feng, who was the most outstanding among the younger generation.
What does the fourth child have? None of his sons can command a large army, and none of his grandsons are capable. Even now, he is jumping around. If things really get serious, he can't even get a number.
"Let him make a fuss. Anyway, I won't move until I see Lan Xi's body for a day." Others may not know, but how could he not know?
Lan Xi is full of tricks, what if nothing happens?
They can't afford the consequences.
"Brother, aren't you anxious?" Shen Congli became anxious when he saw that he couldn't persuade the two of them.
Shen Congwen was aloof, but also somewhat moved.
He felt that what the second brother said made sense.
"Wait a little longer, Yuan Jing and the others haven't responded yet."
Shen Conglian smiled and took out a letter, and Shen Congyi's eyes widened.
"Second brother, whose letter is it?"
The reason why Shen Conglian was able to sit still was because he received a reply from his eldest son.
"It's Yuan Xu's letter. Yuan Jing and his men are a little far from the capital, so the letter will probably arrive in a few days."
"Let me see." Shen Congli quickly grabbed it.
Chen Conglian said: "Yuan Xu told us to stay at home and not do anything."
Fortunately, he did not listen to Liu before, otherwise he would not be able to explain to his son.
"Hurry up and tell the second lady." After Shen Conglian finished speaking, he glanced at the third brother.
"Tell the Third Madam too."
"Brother, do you want to tell the princess?"
Shen Congwen was not worried about the princess, he was worried about his mother entering the palace.
"Oh no, something bad is going to happen. Hurry into the palace and stop mother!" Shen Congwen's face changed drastically after he figured it out.
Chen Conglian said slowly: "What are you afraid of? Lan Xi doesn't dare to do anything to her mother." Still saying this, he stood up slowly.
"What do you know?" Shen Congwen asked impatiently.
Shen Lanxi dared to be so cruel to him as a father, so how could he show mercy to his grandmother who was separated from him by a blood relationship?
At this time, Shen Congli and Shen Congyi's faces also changed.
In recent years, Shen Lanxi has been very kind to the Shen family, so much so that they have forgotten how cruel she was to her family when she was in Tianjin.
No, she had never been very nice to her family from the beginning to the end. It was just that her mother and eldest brother stopped making trouble, so she ignored them.
But she didn't let any of the youngsters who made mistakes go.
She never showed mercy when someone's legs needed to be broken and when someone's needs to be exiled.
"It's bad, go stop mother quickly." After Shen Conglian figured it out, his face changed drastically. His leisurely look just now was gone forever, and he wanted to run away.
Shen Congwen had a limp in one leg, and as he walked, he shouted, "You go first, I'll be there soon."
It is not allowed to ride horses in the downtown area of the capital, especially after Shen Lanxi led the army in person, the management of the streets and alleys in the capital has become more strict.
Anyone who ran faster would be questioned by the Beijing guards, who were afraid that someone would take advantage of the situation.
Several groups of people who were repairing roofs and causing trouble were arrested before. The reason for arresting them was to capture foreign spies.
After the news of Shen Lanxi's serious injury came back, the number of patrolling Beijing guards and constables increased several times.
It is no exaggeration to say that when Madam Shen left, she did not dare to ride in a carriage, but instead had someone carry her slowly in a sedan chair.
It’s not that Madam Shen is not in a hurry, but no one dares to speed up even if she urges.
"Don't run so fast, be careful not to be caught as a spy!" Shen Conglian shouted at Shen Congli's back.
Shen Lanxi is not in the capital right now. If they run into some fool and arrest them, they will have nowhere to complain to.
By the time they finally arrived at the palace, their mother, Old Madam Shen, had already placed her fourth son on the throne.
They entered the palace in disbelief, as if in a dream.
This time no one stopped them and they met the people smoothly.
"Mother, no, get down quickly!" How could she sit on the dragon throne? That was for the emperor only.
Old Madam Shen didn't expect to achieve her goal so easily, and she had already forgotten everything else.
"Since you are not motivated, don't blame me for pushing your fourth brother to the top." At this moment, Old Madam Shen felt that she could finally hold her head high and no longer had to be suppressed by others.
From now on, she will be the most honorable woman in the Great Zhou. Her son will be the emperor, and she will be the most honorable empress dowager in the Great Zhou. From now on, the entire Great Zhou will belong to their Shen family.
"Mother, stop messing around and come back with us!" Shen Conglian was so frightened that he didn't even dare to look up.
Shen Congli stared straight at the fourth brother standing next to the dragon throne. If he didn't know something, he would be jealous to death at this moment.
Fortunately, he now knows that the person standing there is simply seeking death.
The more you jump around now, the faster you will die later.
Yuan Jing and Yuan Xu both hold important troops in the family, followed by Yuan Peng and Yuan Hao from the third room. There are also some younger ones looking on eagerly. He can also see that if his son wants to get to the top, he has a lot of preparations.
The ones who should be anxious are the eldest and second in command. He can just sit back and watch the fight.
I just feel a little sorry for my mother. If anything, it’s all the fault of the fourth child. My mother must have been instigated by him.
When Madam Shen heard her son's words, she immediately shouted angrily: "You are so bold, you are the ones making trouble. If you dare to stop me again, don't blame me as a mother for being rude to you."
The three brothers were all stunned. Their mother had never said such harsh words to them.
"Mother..." Shen Congwen anxiously asked for help from the person next to him.
"Master Liu, old master, Mr. Ruohua, my mother is old and confused. The three of us brothers will take her home right now."
The three old masters exchanged glances with each other, but none of them said anything, as if they were letting things take their course.
