The Marquise: I Earn My Own Worship

"I know you have a good relationship. If the Sixth Prince loses power, the Duanbo Mansion will also suffer. However, if a force that can restrain the new emperor emerges, then the two sides will balance each other and maintain peace in this area."

Then the issue of military power came up. At that time, a war had just broken out and Kangger had already made up his mind. With the support of the queen, he was able to go to the border without hesitation.

"Did the Queen also tell you?"

Sister Wei nodded, "Cousin, we are pawns in the Queen's hands, but who knows if we have our own thoughts."

"No matter who I marry in the future, I will inevitably be controlled by others. How can I endure all the bitterness and suffering in the inner court? Why not become the one in charge? Strive hard and make a living, so that I can live up to my life. As a woman, I also have my own ambitions. The Queen's move is exactly what I want. Everything is just going with the flow and riding the wind."

Wei Jie'er's lowered eyes were full of ambition. Holding power is a woman's ultimate dream. No love or affection can be real if it is held in one's hands.

Kang Ge'er smiled bitterly, "If I had known you would become like this, I wouldn't have looked for those storybooks for you. Grandma once said that reading too many stories would change my temperament. I think that wasn't me, it was you."

When I looked up again, Sister Wei had returned to normal.

"The storybook also talks about the normal state of the world. What's there to be ashamed of? What I said before was enough. I'm shouldering the responsibility outside, and I have to help you in the capital. We should all help each other."

"Ugh"

Kang Ge'er sighed, and looking at the little girl in front of him who was speaking so eloquently, he couldn't help but stretched out his big hand to rub her head.

"Where do you get all those profound truths at such a young age?"

Sister Wei tried to dodge but failed, and looked extremely angry.

"Brother, take your hand away."

"That's right."

A little girl should have a little girl's look.

When Kang Ge'er took his hand away, he saw that Wei Jie'er's hair was a little messy, and he couldn't help feeling a little guilty.

He even used less force on purpose, so why was it still a mess?

The women's hair buns were too loose.

Afraid of being blamed by Sister Wei, he diverted his attention.

"Since you've made up your mind, I won't try to persuade you. I'll also work hard. Just remember that Duan Bofu is standing behind you. Don't let yourself be wronged in anything."

After saying that, he smiled.

"Although Duan Bo's Mansion is not very good now, it will definitely become more and more powerful in the future."

Sister Wei stopped her hand which was about to touch the bun, feeling a little touched.

"Definitely."

If you ignore the Bo Mansion today, you will not be able to reach it tomorrow.

The enthusiasm for returning to the capital gradually faded, and the Emperor of Chu had already issued an order to reward the generals on the second day after they returned to the capital.

General Zhu was given the title of General Changwei, another General Shen was given the title of General Changyuan, and Lord Luo, who was most trusted by the Emperor of Chu, was given the title of General Zhenxi.

In addition, the title of Robert's family was raised to Marquis, and was inherited by three generations.

Now he had to be called Marquis Luo, and the sign of Luo Bo's Mansion was taken down and replaced with a plaque of Marquis' Mansion.

General Han Fei was appointed as the general and took the reorganized troops out of the capital to guard the Guanmen.

When they arrived at Duan Bo's Mansion, which was the most watched place by everyone, the Emperor of Chu issued two edicts.

One was an edict of promotion, the same as that of Robert's Mansion, but the way of inheriting the title was slightly different.

"The Emperor, by the Mandate of Heaven, proclaims: 'I believe that the key to governing the country lies in the talents of the wise; to honor meritorious service, high titles and ranks are the proper means. I hereby inform you, Lord Luo, of a dignified and prudent nature, and of both talent and strategy. Since receiving the title of Earl, you have diligently performed your duties and educated your son with wisdom. His son has made numerous achievements, and his conduct is commendable, his virtue a model.'"

I now specially promote you to the rank of Marquis, bestow upon you the title of hereditary successor, as a token of my great favor. I hope that with your new title you will cherish the ambition to serve your country, continue your ambitious plans, uphold integrity and serve the public good, and work diligently to strengthen our country and ensure the safety of our people, and once again establish an unparalleled legacy."

Duan Jingzong's eyes were red as he stood in front of the incense table. He took the imperial edict solemnly and knelt down to thank His Majesty for his grace.

Unexpectedly, the Duan family still has this day. Duan Jingzong's heart was filled with excitement.

I originally thought that since his father had passed the Bo Mansion to him, he would be unable to support it and would eventually lose the family business.

But fortunately, he has a promising son who supports the family again.

There was another imperial edict concerning Kang Ge'er.

It was a long and eloquent article, and although it did not confer any official title on him, the praise and intention to use him were clearly expressed.

Although no official title was directly conferred, every word and sentence has its meaning.

This caused everyone in the capital to speculate about His Majesty's intentions and what was going on.

But it’s not difficult to guess that the Emperor of Chu just wanted to make a big move.

Many people understand the significance of the word "little general" spoken by the Emperor of Chu.

The title of young general is only a matter of time. Once the next war breaks out, Duan Jiazi will go to the battlefield wearing the title.

Today, Duan Chengkang is no longer the son of an earl, but the son of a marquis.

The Emperor of Chu had already thought about raising the title.

This title was just a decree he made to appease the Duan family. If he directly appointed the son of the Duan family as a general, regardless of whether others would accept it or not, those military generals would have some objections in their hearts.

Now that Kang Ge'er has returned to Beijing, all the playboys in the capital are blessed.

After finally coming back, of course he needs to relax. Kang Ge'er's way of relaxing is to stroll through the streets and alleys.

Sometimes he would just become a knight who would draw his sword and help others when he saw injustice, and beat those who harassed women and bullied the weak to a pulp.

It is even more intimidating than the Fu Yi in the capital. Kang Ge'er said that this is just a casual matter.

Even if he beat up the sons of high-ranking officials and reported them to the Emperor of Chu, he would just turn a blind eye.

Even the children of wealthy families had nowhere to seek justice when they were beaten up by the ruffians, let alone them. When they saw Kang Ge'er, they could only keep their tails between their legs.

Everyone knows that he will be a general of the Great Chu in the future.

If you can't afford to offend him, why not avoid him? If you meet him, just consider yourself unlucky.

And Boying Pavilion also welcomed back its owner.

Even though Kang Ge'er has been gone for a few years, the popularity of Boying Hall is getting stronger and stronger.

In addition to martial arts competitions, literary competitions have also been established a long time ago.

The most powerful person in the martial arts competition right now, ranked first, is that kid Luo Zhen.

After all, as a descendant of a military family, Luo Zhen was trained under his father. He started practicing with him since he could just walk, and his basic skills are much more solid than Kang Ge'er's.
