It is gratifying that the Crown Princess received spiritual rewards. The women in the Eastern Palace are all about face.

Now with the emperor's commendation and the crown princess's father being promoted to the throne, Sun Jing was very happy.

The Crown Prince also looked at the Crown Princess differently. Being able to please his father would naturally help consolidate his position as Crown Prince.

The prince was in a very good mood and stayed in the princess's bedroom for half a month.

Naturally, the Crown Princess had to write a letter to Su Yuejian to thank her for giving her the credit for the syringe, which allowed her to finally gain a foothold in the Eastern Palace.

Another imperial edict was sent to the Su Mansion.

The eunuch Chen Ming opened the imperial edict and read it respectfully, "The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims: Since ancient times, outstanding talents have emerged from youth. In our dynasty, the titles of princesses are all to reward meritorious people and encourage loyal and good people. There is no actual title.

There is a Princess Su who has made many remarkable achievements, including alcohol, anesthetics, and penicillin to save people from danger. She was very promising at a young age and has invented several things, all of which have contributed to the country.

Therefore, I, the common ruler of all the people in the world, made an exception and specially conferred the title of Princess Su Yuejian as a de facto princess to honor her merits.

From now on, Su Yuejian will be the lord of Zhongli County, governing this land and bringing peace to the four directions.

All the subjects of the territory should be loyal and do their best to assist the princess, jointly maintain the peace of the county, and carry forward the glory of our dynasty. "

Su Yue saw that the whole family was well-groomed and got up early, bathed, changed clothes and prepared for the ceremony of receiving the imperial decree. She did not expect that this time she would be conferred the title of a de facto princess.

This is of such great significance that if we tell others about it, it would be a unique honor for the whole country of Jing!

Su Yue was genuinely happy to receive the imperial edict. After all, she was now a princess with real power!

This made her a little excited, so she took out the gifts she had prepared in advance to honor Chen Ming, including a piece of agarwood incense pendant carved with the words "good luck".

The carved Ruyi and eight rhinoceros horns of agarwood overlap, with the word "Wan" engraved on it and a broken persimmon branch in the middle, which means "everything goes well".

It is strung with coral beads, pearls and green jade, and adorned with green jade flower and butterfly pendants and pink tourmaline pendants.

People in the palace have always loved to wear incense.

This pendant is made of rare agarwood and is hard to come by. Chen Ming can't let it go.

"This time, Concubine Qi has contributed a lot. In addition, please make preparations early and go to Zhongli's fiefdom within three months at the latest. The original salary and rice will be gone.

After being conferred the title of Princess, she will enjoy the treatment of a lady of the first rank, with a fief of 1,000 households, 30 hectares of land, and 60 people in the fief.

"Thank you Mr. Chen for your guidance!" Su Yue saw his sincerity and bowed to express her gratitude.

Chen Ming is no longer an ordinary eunuch, he is already a eunuch in charge of writing.

I hope that next time the little princess is promoted, he can become the top eunuch in the palace.

Last time, her life was on the line while she was trying to save someone, and he was extremely anxious.

This time he found an opportunity, went out of the palace to issue an edict, and finally saw her recovered.

Great! She is still that bright and charming girl!

After saying goodbye, Chen Ming strode away with hope.

He wanted to see what other amazing things she could do, and he wanted to work hard too.

He touched the agarwood incense pendant carved with the inscription "Everything goes well" and looked at the lark jade pendant he was wearing. This jade pendant was given to him by his mother. It was a pair, one male and one female, and he had the male one.

As this is related to an injustice in his life experience, this jade pendant cannot be shown to others easily.

So he wore the piece of agarwood given by Su Yuejian.

Before he met Su Yuejian, his life was humble, depressing and dark.

His future seemed to be doomed. If he was not killed by his master, he would be a eunuch bullied for the rest of his life and would never be treated as a normal person.

After Su Yuejian appeared, Chen Ming's life began to change. It was a ray of light that shone into his dark heart, guiding him to succeed.

One day, he will be qualified to stand in front of her and say, "From now on, I will protect your safety."

All the civil and military officials in the court knew Zhongli County, which was a barren place.

It just sounds good, the honor is higher than the reality, and people usually try to demote their political opponents to that place.

In the minds of the court officials, going there was almost like being exiled.

I heard that the people there are so poor that they have no clothes to wear and they almost have to eat dirt.

The court has been running a fiscal deficit every year and has been allocating funds for disaster relief every year. Now they don’t have to worry about it anymore, which is equivalent to the court getting rid of a mess.

After giving out the reward, Su Yu called Su Yuejian to the study.

Su Yuejian felt that her father had something to say, "Dad, what do you think about this?"

"There has never been a precedent of enfeoffment of a princess in our dynasty. This time, first, you are a woman, so you will not cause any harm to the court; second, no one wants to offend the genius doctor; third, the fiefdom is very poor and weak. It sounds good to be an actual fiefdom, but in fact it is a desolate, poor and weak place of exile. Therefore, there are not many objections.

In addition, no one can guess what my emperor is thinking now. He is old and no one dares to offend him. This is how you become a princess with a real title.

Besides, the Fifth Prince is now having fun in the court, and the Emperor intends to use him to check and balance the Crown Prince. You are my daughter, and I am half the Crown Prince's.

If Zhongli causes another disaster, if the relief work fails, the court's political enemies will take the opportunity to impeach you, so you must be careful this time."

"My daughter understands, Dad, I actually quite like this reward.

It doesn’t matter if the place is small and the output is low, at least you have your own territory.

Precisely because I am small and poor, I am not targeted by too many people and I am able to grow up in this gap.

I heard from Eunuch Chen that this reward was the Imperial Concubine's idea. Although I have no dealings with the Imperial Concubine, I have a connection with the Qi family because of alcohol, so I don't think they will harm me."

Su Yuzheng thought for a while, "I'll remember this. Now that the emperor is old, the imperial concubine has to find a way out for herself. She has no son, only a princess, so she has to find an ally for herself.

She should be waiting and watching at this time. If you have made achievements in Zhongli, she will also have the merit of recommending you and also do you a favor to the prince.

If you are caught by your political enemy, the Fifth Prince, then she is handing a knife to the Fifth Prince, and the Fifth Prince will also accept her favor.

Anyway, no matter what the result is, it will only benefit her."

"I understand, Dad. I will be careful when I go to Zhongli. Zhongli is only seven or eight days away from the capital. If I encounter any difficulties, I will write to you frequently for help and will never do anything on my own."

Su Yuzheng nodded, feeling reluctant.

"Yue'er, in three months, you will be fifteen, why don't you celebrate your coming-of-age ceremony in the capital before going to Zhongli.

I'll ask the princess to arrange it for you, do you agree?

If you go to Zhongli, your marriage may be delayed, so you might as well ask the princess to help you keep an eye on it."

"Dad, there is no rush for marriage. My daughter has not yet finished her work and has no plans to get married.

Believe me, I will consider it when the time is right. Please don't worry about it anymore."

Su Yuzheng knew that Prince Rong favored his precious daughter. Since the two of them were already in love, they just had to wait for the right time to make their move.

After Su Yuejian returned, she wrote a letter to the three aunts in charge of Zhongli's side, saying that she would be there in three months to take charge of the situation.

The sudden reward disrupted all of Su Yuejian's plans.
