The Great Dream God

Chapter 208: The Long Road

Zhang Tianlong waved his hand gently, and the elder in white robe beside him understood and took out a crystal medal shining with mysterious purple light from the carefully decorated tray. This medal embodies supreme honor and power, and is the highest award given by the empire to outstanding contributors. The elder's fingers were gentle and steady, as if every touch was telling the story and weight behind the medal.

Zhang Tianlong took the medal, his eyes deep and firm, he looked at Meng Jin, the man who was once unknown but now dazzling. Meng Jin straightened his back, his eyes full of expectation and awe, he knew what this moment meant. Zhang Tianlong carefully put the amethyst medal on Meng Jin's chest, at that moment, the purple light of the medal seemed to blend with Meng Jin's eyes, illuminating his future.

As the medal fell to the ground, thunderous applause rang out throughout the hall. Meng Jin's name was engraved in the long river of history at this moment. He was no longer just an ordinary person, but a count - a real and respected count!

In a solemn and grand ceremony, the focus was on two high-profile figures, Edward and Lisa. Edward was honored by the court as the Huaiyang Guerrilla General. This title was not only a military position, but also a symbol that he had become an indispensable guardian and retainer of the Mengjin area. His name would be closely linked to the fate of this land, with loyalty and honor coexisting.

Lisa, on the other hand, also received due appreciation for her wisdom and charm. She was canonized as Lady Ziyang, a distinguished title specially established for outstanding women, representing her high status and far-reaching influence in the court. It is worth noting that the original Princess Ziyang, a woman of equal talent, was promoted to Princess Ziyang for her outstanding contributions and noble status.

However, at this moment, Princess Ziyang resolutely raised her head, her eyes were like torches, and she declared firmly: "I don't hope to become the so-called Princess Ziyang, that is just an empty title. What I desire is a man's title. I want to be a noble who truly possesses power and dignity, an independent existence, not someone's appendage, a lady who depends on her husband for life!"

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the whole place froze instantly. The faces of the elders in high positions all showed expressions of surprise, and the silhouette of Princess Ziyang's determination was reflected in their deep eyes. They were silent, and their silent opposition was obvious. They were worried that such an idea challenged tradition, broke the long-standing rules and order, and might bring her unpredictable storms.

Princess Ziyang, the noblewoman of a distinguished family, saw the expectant eyes of everyone in the hall. She struggled for a moment, and finally gritted her teeth firmly. She knew that this was a major decision that concerned her identity and future. So, she mustered up her courage and announced loudly: "I am willing to accept the title of earl, even if it means that I have to give up my current status as a princess. I don't care about the world's eyes, I just want to take on the title that belongs to men as a woman and become a female Countess of Ziyang!"

Zhang Tianlong, the current emperor, who was sitting on the throne, smiled and gave a look of approval to the Princess Ziyang who dared to challenge tradition. He nodded slightly and responded clearly: "Noble Princess, your determination is admirable. If you really want, then from now on, your name will be closely linked to the Earl of Ziyang. You will no longer be the Princess Ziyang, but the Earl of Ziyang, a female earl who breaks the old rules and moves forward courageously!"

Princess Ziyang's eyes sparkled with a fiery light. The corners of her mouth lifted up, revealing a vibrant smile. She nodded heavily, as if every nod was announcing her determination and gratitude to the world. "Thank you!" she said excitedly, her voice full of admiration. "You are an emperor with great talent and strategy. Your wisdom and courage illuminate our path."

Zhang Tianlong responded to her with a gentle and deep smile. His eyes fell on Princess Ziyang, and he saw not only a noble princess, but also a tenacious, independent woman. She was self-reliant and could stand up straight no matter what difficulties she faced. This spirit made him secretly admire her.

Meng Jin's eyes were fixed on Princess Ziyang. His eyes were like a calm lake, reflecting every subtle movement and expression of the other party. He knew in his heart that all this was not accidental. Princess Ziyang's every move was a carefully designed chess game. She deliberately created these eye-catching events, just to stir up ripples in the crowd, attract everyone's attention and discussion, so as to enhance her influence.

Her goal is obvious, that is, the pinnacle of power. She desires not only the honor and status in front of her, but also the higher positions with real power, or even the throne that symbolizes supreme power. Princess Ziyang's ambition is like the stars in the dark night, although it is covered, it shines with a light that cannot be ignored. Perhaps, she has already made plans in secret, waiting for the right time to attack the highest throne in one fell swoop and realize her ambitions.

Meng Jin knew that such a person was not only a dangerous existence, but also an opponent that could not be underestimated. Every move she made could affect the overall situation, and behind every smile, there might be a well-thought-out strategy. He silently thought about how to deal with this Princess Ziyang who had huge ambitions, and at the same time, he was alert to how the road ahead would be full of twists and turns.

Princess Ziyang, the extremely noble figure, proudly straightened her spine, shining like a bright pearl in the crowd. Her eyes were like torches, looking around, and fell on the elders who admired her. Their eyes were full of awe and admiration, as if her every move was worthy of their deep respect. These elders had been on the battlefield for a long time and had seen countless people, and their admiration for Princess Ziyang was undoubtedly the highest recognition of her endless talent and tenacious will.

Then he turned his gaze to the emperor in front of him, Zhang Tianlong. This powerful monarch also had a look of admiration and amazement for Princess Ziyang in his eyes. Zhang Tianlong knew that her wisdom and courage were no less than those of the elders, and even better. At this moment, her brilliance had illuminated the entire banquet, and her reputation had risen rapidly. Not only did she win praise in this nursing home, but she also left a deep impression in people's hearts.

This is just a brand new starting point, a glorious prelude. Princess Ziyang firmly believes that this is not the end, but the prologue of her legendary life. She will use this celebration banquet as a springboard and the praise of others as motivation to continue to shine on the stage of life and write her own glorious chapter.
