Mu Yunyao didn't feel anything yet, but Anle was already happy for her.

"Thank you, Brother Huang."

Then he tugged at Mu Yunyao's sleeve and said, "Yaoyao, thank His Majesty quickly."

The eldest princess had taken good care of herself these days and had gained a lot of strength. When she pulled like that, Mu Yunyao was actually moved by her.

Mu Yunyao squatted down and saluted.

"Yunxi thanks your majesty."

The emperor looked at his sister helplessly, wondering how much this girl didn't trust him that made her so anxious to settle the matter.

"Get up. Since the princess is so anxious, Wu Banban will announce the decree."

"Yes."

Wu Banban smiled and took out the imperial edict from his sleeve, then looked at Mu Yunyao and smiled.

"Princess Yunxi, please accept the order."

Mu Yunyao knew that he would definitely receive his reward today. He originally thought it would be at the palace banquet, but he did not expect it to be brought forward because of Princess Anle's words.

Fortunately, Mu Yunyao hadn't gotten up yet, so he simply didn't get up. The emperor felt helpless seeing her like this.

"Didn't you say that you don't have to bow when you see me in the future? Get up."

Mu Yunyao thought to herself, why didn’t you just say it earlier? I was already squatting down.

But he still said obediently, "Etiquette cannot be abolished."

The emperor felt that she looked much better for some reason and didn't say anything else.

He sat down directly in the main seat and also pulled Princess Anle to sit over there.

Wu Banban opened the imperial edict and began to read it out.

"The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims that Princess Yunxi is virtuous, dignified, and wise. She deserves the most merit in pacifying the southwest and bringing back the Princess. She is hereby granted the title of Princess Yunxi, with a fief of 5,000 households, a Princess's Mansion, and 3,000 soldiers. I decree this."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace. May the Great Qi live forever."

"Get up."

Mu Yunyao bowed solemnly and waited until the emperor excused her from the ceremony before she stood up.

Except for the crown prince, the other princes all opened their mouths wide when they heard the reward.

You know, even princes rarely receive the same treatment as her.

Even if they are crowned kings in the future and have their own palaces, their fiefs will only be three thousand households and their palace soldiers will be no more than five hundred.

Even the soldiers sent to the fiefdom were only 5,000. Anyone exceeding this number would be charged with treason.

She is just a woman, not even a member of the royal family, but she is treated as a prince and can lead three thousand soldiers in the capital. How much does their father trust her?

They just couldn't understand why they, the sons, were not as good as outsiders in the eyes of their father.

If they dared to ask this question, I am afraid the emperor would ask them rudely.

How can they compare to Mu Yunyao? What else can they do except fighting openly and secretly?

While enjoying the honor of a prince over the years, how many practical things have you done for the court and the people?

Why compare with others?

If we give him military power, he will not only be able to go deep into the southwest to collect evidence of the King of Southwest's rebellion, but also bring the King of Southwest back, so that the southwest political power can have a smooth transition.

Didn’t you see that it took the prince less than half a month to sort out the things over there?

When Mu Yunyao saw the prince just now, she was a little surprised.

She had never thought that the prince would return to Beijing so soon. She thought that the prince would stay there for at least a few months.

After all, the relationship between the officials there and the King of the Southwest is complicated and not so easy to sort out.

If the prince knew what she was thinking, he would definitely say that it was all your credit.

Those officials in the southwest were already frightened by you. Seeing the prince coming was like seeing a god descend to the earth. No matter what the prince asked or did, they cooperated perfectly.

He even confessed everything he had done wrong.

The emperor had already planned to take action in the southwest a few years ago, so naturally he would have made some arrangements.

This time the prince went there to bring those people over and arrange them in appropriate positions.

With the cooperation of local officials, he had nothing to do with it at all.

Besides, the local military power was already in the hands of Zhan Wuhui. There was no place for him to cooperate with the prince, so naturally he would take the criminals back to Beijing.

Even she herself almost thought that this trip to the southwest was to be a prison boss.

He finally understood what it felt like when his subordinates were too capable.

It was just that the Prince of Zhenbei seemed unhappy. After knowing that the Prince of Southwest was escorted back to the capital, he had people submit several memorials in succession, all of which were sent over at full speed.

Almost one letter every two days.

It was to urge my father to select military generals to take over the southwest.

He was afraid that his father would leave Zhan Wuhui in the southwest and no one would take over the Zhenbei Army.

He also repeatedly emphasized that Zhan Wuhui was the commander he chose for the Zhenbei Army, and told his father not to pick other people's peaches at will.

Even the emperor was so angry that he laughed.

But there is no way around it. The relationship between Zhan Wuhui and King Zhenbei does not make it suitable for him to be in charge of the military power in the southwest.

However, the court was unable to choose a suitable general to take over.

Now, Nanzhao is eyeing our Great Qi covetously. If the new commander is not capable of suppressing it, it is inevitable that they will have the intention to interfere again.

And there is indeed no more suitable general in the court than Zhan Wuhui.

The emperor had been prepared over the years, but he thought it would not be so easy to overthrow the King of Southwest. It would take at least years, and training a military general also required many tests.

But who would have thought that it would be done in just over a month. It was a bit unexpectedly fast.

Now there is no need to worry about the rebellion of the King of the Southwest. Instead, what we have to worry about is the wolfish ambition of Nanzhao. The emperor is also worried.

He was so worried that he wanted to kick these useless sons to the border.

But he was also afraid that once they got their hands on military power, their ambitions would be aggravated.

Of course, Mu Yunyao didn’t know about this. After all, it wasn’t something she could control, right?

All she had to do was wait patiently for the palace banquet to begin.

Not long after, someone came to report.

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother invites you to come over and attend the palace banquet together."

The emperor waved his hand and said, "Anle and Yunxi, come with me."

The two people who were named responded and saluted at the same time.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Thank you, Brother Huang."

Then he followed the emperor obediently.

Behind them were the crown prince and other princes who were not named by the emperor, and of course Xiao Qianmo.

The Queen Mother was accompanied by several people, all of whom Mu Yunyao knew.

The Queen, the Crown Princess, Yue Ningyin and Liuyun.

After greeting each other, they walked towards the palace where the banquet was held.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor, the Empress Dowager, the Empress, Princess Anle, and Princess Yunxi have arrived."

Following Wu Banban's shout of approval, all civil and military officials and their families stood up and saluted.

But everyone couldn't help but wonder in their hearts, who is this Princess Yunxi?

How do they remember that there is only one Princess Quxi in this dynasty? If not...

Before I could figure it out, I saw that the people around me had already started to greet me, so I could only calm down temporarily.

"Long live the emperor, long live the empress dowager, long live the queen, long live Princess Anle, long live Princess Yunxi."
