Besides the soldiers of Da Zhou, there were also the common people of Da Zhou around. Most of the people present knew Gu Xin. In those two years, Gu Xin often wandered around the trading area of Kuncheng. At that time, he used the name of the Third Young Master Gu. Later, everyone also found out that among the first six members of the Gu family, only the Fourth Young Master and the Sixth Young Master were the most outstanding. The rest were all girls.
Therefore, they all knew Gu Xin, the third daughter of the Gu family.
Two years had passed since I last saw her. Gu San Guniang had grown taller and her skin had darkened a bit, but her bright and lively eyes remained unchanged.
The people also knelt down to pay homage to Gu Xin, along with General Peng and others.
In the two years since Miss Gu left for the west, Kuncheng has been very peaceful. All the rumors that the west was going to attack have been proven false, and Kuncheng is getting better and better.
At the beginning of this year, people throughout the Great Zhou, especially in Kunzhou, learned from the government's notices about everything that Miss Gu had experienced in the past two years.
They were sincerely grateful to Miss Gu.
Gu Xin stepped forward to help General Peng up, choking back tears as she said, "Grandpa Peng, aren't you shortening my lifespan? How can an elder like you bow to a junior like me?"
"Imperial edict has arrived!"
At this moment, Eunuch Fu arrived on horseback, looking travel-worn.
Without time for pleasantries, he dismounted and stood directly in front of Gu Xin, bowing respectfully: "Princess Xin Xin, this servant has come to welcome Your Highness by imperial decree. Please accept the decree, Your Highness!"
Gu Xin was taken aback. Her father had already brought her the imperial decree that made her a princess. What kind of imperial decree was this?
Eunuch Fu held the imperial edict in his hand and raised it halfway into the air: "Gu Xin, the second daughter of Gu Shouxin, the prefect of Kunzhou, from the second branch of the Gu family, receive the imperial edict!"
Gu Xin knelt down.
Everyone present, except for Eunuch Fu who was announcing the imperial decree, knelt down.
Eunuch Fu began to proclaim the imperial decree.
The gist of this imperial edict is that two years ago, Gu Xin mistakenly entered the Western Lands. For the sake of harmony between East and West, she endured humiliation, worked tirelessly and braved dangers, and fought alongside several Western Lands nations against the Cloud Sea Tribe, achieving victory. At the same time, Gu Xin also promoted peace between East and West and fostered friendly relations with the various Western Lands nations...
Gu Xin was specially granted the title of First-Rank Princess Protector of the Nation, receiving the same treatment as the legitimate princesses born to the Empress, with a fiefdom, a mansion, fertile land, and gold.
In addition, the Emperor also permitted Gu Xin to train troops, regardless of gender, and allowed Gu Xin to raise a thousand-strong army.
Those present included civil and military officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty, as well as students and common people. They all witnessed Gu Xin's glory, which was no less than being officially conferred a title in the imperial court.
Gu Xin happily accepted the decree. She was now a person with a house and land, all of her own, and she could even raise an army! Hahahaha…
...
By the time I got home, it was already dark.
Aunt Zhang and Aunt Yang had already ordered several tables to be prepared, all of which contained dishes that Gu Xin loved.
Despite Zhang's unpleasant personality and preference for sons over daughters, she was quite saddened by Gu Xin's absence for the past two years. When she saw Gu Xin again, she hugged her little niece and shed a couple of tears: "It's so good that Xin Xin is back! I missed you so much."
Gu Xin chuckled and said, "Auntie, I can tell you've lost weight. It seems you still like me very much!"
Zhang has really lost weight. Over the past year, Cai Xiaolian has prepared a weight loss meal plan for her, which Cai Xiaolian herself had personally experienced in modern times. It was all about eating, and she lost dozens of kilograms. Zhang is now a completely different person.
With her good figure and the fact that the Gu family provided her with good food and clothing, Zhang Shi had no worries except for Gu Xin, who was often away from home. She seemed to have become ten years younger all of a sudden.
