Gu Xingcheng nodded: "Okay, I will immediately order someone to deliver the letter. Some time ago, when I first ascended the throne, Northern Jin sent ministers to Daliang. This time, Northern Jin has just appointed a crown prince, and you two are just the right people to represent Daliang to congratulate."

Li Shuangwan was surprised. A new prince?

Ling Ji was deposed?

Just as he was about to ask Emperor Jingzhang who he had appointed as the crown prince, he saw Eunuch Su come in.

Su Chaoquan whispered in Gu Xingcheng's ear: "Your Majesty, it's almost time, all the officials are here."

Gu Xingcheng stood up: "Okay, let's go."

There will always be an opportunity to ask.

Gu Xingyan nodded at her, indicating that there was no need to rush, as they would be there soon anyway.

Gu Xingcheng held a banquet in the palace to celebrate the success of officers above the rank of deputy general.

And reward according to merit.

As the glasses clinked, everyone was praising the Ninth Prince for his bravery.

But who among those present here, the rich and powerful people in the city who live in luxury, has ever seen a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood?

Who else has stuck to the enemy's blade and walked through the gates of hell again and again?

When the wine was half drunk, Su Chaoquan announced the decree.

Gu Xingyan was officially named the Ninth Prince of Daliang, commanding 150,000 Canglang troops.

Ma Jingwei was appointed as the deputy commander of the Canglang Army.

At the same time, he issued an edict to recruit another 50,000 new soldiers into the Canglang Army.

Chen Tinghua was so shocked that he wanted to stand up, but was held down by Chen Shihui, who shook his head gently at him.

At this time, the imperial edict cannot be resisted.

Softness can always overcome hardness.

Instead of going against Gu Xingcheng, it is better to place his own people in the Canglang Army and defeat them one by one.

Chen Tinghua was extremely angry, but there was nothing he could do. He could only tilt his head back and drink up all the wine in front of him.

Don't say that he had no reason to ask for new soldiers.

It was Gu Xingcheng who agreed to this.

I'm afraid no one would be willing to join his camp.

A bunch of short-sighted fools who can only see the scenery in front of them.

Everyone understood that His Majesty did not bestow a title on the Ninth Prince in order to allow him to take over the throne of Daliang a hundred years later.

After this, no one would laugh at Gu Xingyan sarcastically or call him “Farmer Prince” anymore.

Because He Si was brave and good at fighting, he burned the arsenal of the Zhao people and made great contributions. Gu Xingcheng made an exception and personally issued an order to promote him to centurion.

During a battle in the valley of Riyue Mountain, Niu Dan was stabbed in the chest by a soldier from Zhao State and was unable to return.

This also fulfilled his wish of dying on the battlefield and killing a few more Zhao soldiers before dying.

He was posthumously awarded the title of centurion.

The rest of the soldiers were rewarded.

The pensions for the sacrificed soldiers were doubled and handed over to the Ninth Prince Gu Xingyan to handle personally.

Especially for the soldiers who died in Rangcheng and Huaizhou cities, those who died will be posthumously honored, and the pension for their families will be doubled.

What made women all over the world even more excited was that the emperor personally issued an imperial decree to confer the title of Princess Ning'an on Shu Yanyan, the adopted daughter of Duke Shu, with a fief of 800 households.

He was also appointed as the commander of the Canglang Army, with a fief of 800 households.

Not only did she share a fief of 1,600 households, she was also the first female general in Daliang since its founding!

Among the five kingdoms in the world, only Daliang has a female general!

The princess' heroic figure in killing the enemy was so exciting that all the soldiers of the Canglang Army could talk about it for three days and three nights.

Especially when the Marshal and the princess cooperated to kill the enemy, it was so cool.

The Ava army was helpless.

Although those attending the banquet were all civil and military ministers of the court, none of them did not have a small reputation in their hearts.

The Ninth Prince is now twenty-one years old, and it is a good time for him to marry a wife.

As for the new favorite female general Shu Yanyan, she also looked to be in her prime.

It seems that Duke Shu brought her back to Sijiu City with the intention of finding a good marriage for her.

I don’t know if my own sons and nephews are worthy of being a match.

However, such a woman is not worthy of an ordinary young man.

Everyone had their own thoughts at the banquet.

These grown men don’t understand these things, so they have to go back and talk to their wives about it.

So, in the past few days, the Shuguo Mansion received many invitations.

Princess Ning'an was invited to attend flower-viewing parties, poetry parties, kite-paper parties, and all kinds of banquets.

At first, Wu asked Li Shuangwan whether he wanted to go.

In the city of Beijing, one must maintain good relations with the various mansions. If she is willing, she will accompany them.

However, just as she took the invitation and was about to ask, she was stopped by her own boy.

"Mother, please push all these things off for my little sister. She won't go."

"really?"

"Of course it's true. I hate these meaningless banquets the most. If you don't believe me, go ask her."

"Stepmother, brother, what are you talking about?" Li Shuangwan had just finished a round of boxing and was now dressed in tights and taking off his wrist guard.

Shu Wenbo took a large stack of invitations from Wu: "Look, they are all inviting you to various boring events of this and that. Are you going?"

"She's not going." A man's cold voice sounded from behind them.

"Xingyan, why are you here?" Li Shuangwan ran towards Gu Xingyan.

Shu Wenbo shrugged at his mother: "See? This pile of invitations is not as good as one word from Brother Nine."

Wu glared at him and said, "Yes, yes, you are the only one who understands your sister."

"Aren't we going to leave for Northern Jin in five days? I'll take you for a walk on the street and see if there's anything you need. Buy some and take it back with you."

"Okay." Li Shuangwan turned around and said, "Mom, brother, Xingyan and I are going out for a walk."

"Go ahead. Xiaojiu, take care of Yanyan on the way."

"Yes, don't worry, aunt."

Gu Xingyan took the girl's hand and went out.

"Brother Jiu, wait for me, I'll go too."

Mrs. Wu grabbed her son's hand and said, "Why are you joining in the fun? Come on, I got a lot of miniatures of girls. Go and take a look to see if there's anything you like."

Shu Wenbo was in a miserable state. After he came back, he was forced by his mother to kiss several times.

He now deeply understands the difficulties of being the Prince of Rui.

Li Shuangwan was in a good mood, thinking that if they rode at full speed, they would reach Shengjing City in less than half a month.

And this time when she returned to Shengjing, she had to find a way to persuade her father to hand over the military power.

But she also knew that this would be difficult.

Since my great-grandfather, the General's Mansion has been guarding the northwestern border of Northern Jin for four generations, firmly defending the defense line between Northern Jin and Northern Qi.

This time, my father and brother drove the Northern Qi soldiers back nearly a hundred miles to the grassland in one fell swoop, severely damaging the Northern Qi's 300,000 cavalry and forcing them to sign an armistice agreement.

Li Shuangwan remembered very clearly that in his previous life, after the signing of this alliance, Northern Qi no longer dared to invade Northern Jin.

It was not until several years later that Northern Qi and Xia Kingdom joined forces, intending to deal a heavy blow to Daliang and get a piece of the fat meat from Daliang.

Instead, Gu Xingyan took advantage of the opportunity to destroy the country.

Not only her parents and brother, she also missed Yizhu, Luoman and the others.

However, they had only been strolling for half an hour when they suddenly heard a noise in front of them.

"Go and see what happened." Gu Xingyan ordered Mo Lin.

Mo Lin is now in high spirits. It has been nearly half a month since he returned to Sijiu City, and his master has not mentioned the matter of the twenty lashes.

Well, the master must have forgotten.

It’s better to forget it.

Moments later, Mo Lin came back: "Master, Master, there is a girl outside the city. Her carriage collided with the carriage of Prince Rui. Neither of them gave way to the other, and then Prince Gu started arguing with the girl."

"My dear, Master, who do you think this girl is? How dare she quarrel with the dignified Prince Rui?"
