Well, this letter directly put the inn that Madam Xue had set up back then to good use.
Madam Xue assumed that Gu Nian and Xue Qianyu would get married in the capital, so she set up a very large inn specifically for the guests attending the wedding. Now, it's being used to accommodate the guests attending Princess Jinghe's wedding.
At the same time, the emperor also bestowed the title of Princess Kangning upon Prince Kang and Princess Kang's adopted daughter, He San Niang, and granted her a princess's mansion. He also arranged a marriage between them with Meng Meng, who had rendered meritorious service in suppressing the small states surrounding Kunzhou.
Meng Meng is currently serving in Yunzhou and has already reached the rank of a third-grade military officer.
As for the wedding date, the emperor did not set it directly, but left the matter to his godparents, Prince Kang and Princess Kang. He would not let his brother and sister-in-law be idle. "I have not been able to have a good time, while you are living like gods in Kunzhou. How can I not find something for you to do?"
Finally, there was also an imperial edict conferring victory over Huo Junhao.
Huo Junhao and Uncle Gu were very successful in their work in Chunnan County. Now, Chunnan County produces a large amount of grain and vegetables, and continuously supplies seeds to various parts of the Great Zhou Dynasty. This is their achievement.
Therefore, the emperor promoted Huo Junhao to the position of Assistant Prefect of Kunzhou Prefecture, a fourth-rank official, making him the youngest fourth-rank local official in history. It should be noted that Huo Junhao was only eighteen years old this year and had not yet come of age.
The court officials could all see that the young master of the Huo family would definitely be transferred back to the capital along with Princess Jinghe's husband.
Three years later, the young master of the Huo family will only be twenty-one years old, and his future can be described as limitless.
Many ministers went home and told their wives to visit the Huo family more often and chat with the Prime Minister's wife about the upcoming marriage of the Huo family's young master.
The Huo family did not split up. The eldest branch was headed by Prime Minister Huo, and his wife managed the household affairs. She got along well with her sisters-in-law and was quite supportive of her nephew's marriage.
Huo Junhao, far away in Chunnan County, was unaware that he was now the most sought-after son-in-law in the eyes of the noble ladies of the capital.
At this moment, the capital is busy welcoming the princes and princesses from various countries in the west. Each family is also inquiring with Minister Chen of the Ministry of Rites, who has already been to the west, about which country in the west is more powerful, how old the princes and princesses are, and whether there is a possibility of marriage.
...
July 12th, the day the sorcerer chose for the burial.
Early in the morning, before dawn, Cheng Huaijin, Gu Xin, Gu En, and Gu Yingxue arrived at the cemetery, and everything was ready.
As Cheng Huaijin placed the urn of ashes into the tomb, dawn was breaking, and at that moment, the cries of a newborn baby echoed from the back courtyard of the Linzhou government office.
Wow~ Wow~ Wow~
One sound after another, the sound was very loud.
"Congratulations, sir! Your wife has given birth to a son!"
The midwife came out carrying the baby, and Gu Qingyuan and Gu Nian, who had been waiting all night, rushed over: "How is Madam (Auntie)?"
Neither of them checked on the child immediately; instead, they asked Peng Yizhu about it.
The midwife paused for a moment, then said, "The lady is somewhat exhausted, she..."
Suddenly, a scream came from inside the house: "Oh no! There's one more, there's one more!"
Everyone looked into the house at the same time.
"This, this, how could this be? This..."
Gu Qingyuan and Gu Nian were extremely worried and could no longer bear it, so they rushed into the delivery room.
They saw another midwife holding a tiny, very weak baby and patting it, but the baby wouldn't make a sound, which terrified the midwife.
Exhausted, Peng Yizhu looked at the baby in the midwife's arms with great concern and heartache.
