Qin Chuyu had never seen such a terrifying person. He was so scared that he fell on the ground, forgetting even to scream.

Little Jing Kong was also shocked. He widened his eyes at the scene of the person and the dog in the wheelchair.

Huangfu Xian sensed the movement from the side. He slowly turned his head, revealing a pair of sinister eyes.

"Ah!"

Qin Chuyu's hair stood on end, finally letting out a scream.

A child this small couldn't withstand such a terrifying shock. Trembling, Qin Chuyu almost crawled forward in panic, shouting, "Help—help—someone is killing a puppy—"

He ran away.

Little Jing Kong didn't run.

Huangfu Xian's sinister eyes showed a faint trace of surprise. He sneered, asking, "Aren't you going to run, little thing?"

Little Jing Kong looked at him, then glanced at the little dog on his dying breath. After hesitating for a moment, he finally turned and ran away with quick steps!

"Heh."

A disdainful sneer escaped Huangfu Xian's lips.

……

As the morning court session approached, the Emperor summoned the officials of the cabinet and various military officials to the imperial study. There, he discussed the matter of rewarding the border heroes with them.

Tang Yueshan was already the army's Supreme Commander, with no room for further promotion in his official position. Thus, the Emperor intended to grant him a noble title.

Gu Changqing, as the heir to the Marquis Ding'an Estate, took on the crucial task of reorganizing the Gu Family Army, heading north to attack the enemy.

His merits were undeniable, and the Emperor planned to elevate him to the rank of Northern Defense General, a third-ranking position.

This promotion from a sixth-ranking commandant to a third-ranking general was a significant jump, making him one of the fastest-promoted military officials during the current Emperor's reign.

Gu Chengfeng displayed outstanding performance in the battle in Yuegu City, prompting the Emperor to appoint him as the Captain of Yue Cavalry.

Other military officials also received rewards and titles from the Emperor, and the officials generally had no objections.

Everything in the imperial study was harmonious until the Emperor started to reward Gu Jiao and Princess Ning'an.

Gu Jiao still hadn't acknowledged her identity as the daughter of the Marquis Ding'an Estate, so the Emperor planned to bestow rewards on her directly in the name of the owner of the Miraculous Hands Hall.

The Emperor granted her the plaque of the First Divine Physician and bestowed upon her the title of County Princess, with the specific title to be determined by the Hanlin Academy.

At this point, a cabinet official, a secondary Grand Secretary surnamed Xu spoke up, "Physician Gu is just a simple female physician. Even if she has merit in treating the soldiers, isn't the title of County Princess a bit too much for her to bear?"

Grand Secretary Xu was a follower of Grand Preceptor Zhuang.

Grand Preceptor Zhuang didn't attend today, claiming illness.

The Emperor looked displeased at Grand Secretary Xu, saying, "What's too much to bear? Do you know how many lives she saved?"

"This official does not deny Physician Gu's contributions. This official just feels that Your Majesty can offer her some other rewards. Bestowing the plaque of the First Divine Physician is already quite generous. If you also grant her the title of County Princess, it may not align well with ancestral traditions."

Grand Secretary Xu bowed and continued, "Moreover, compared to Physician Gu, this official believes there is another person who deserves recognition."

The Emperor asked in a calm tone, "Oh? Who are you referring to?"

Grand Secretary Xu spoke earnestly, "Princess Ning'an. Princess Ning'an demonstrated great righteousness by punishing her own family, helped Second Young Master Gu rescue the Old Marquis, and assisted Gu shizi in destroying the remnants of the previous dynasty's stronghold. Without Princess Ning'an's cleverness and bravery, the Gu Family Army’s commander might not have been able to escape the snowy mountains. Considering her outstanding contributions, this official proposes conferring upon Princess Ning'an the title of Grand Princess Protector!"

The title of Grand Princess wasn’t easily conferred in the State of Zhao. The Grand Princess held real power and was equivalent to a vassal lord!

Princess Ning'an had gained high praise among the common people.

The news of her righteous act to annihilate her own kin spread from the borderlands to the capital, earning admiration for her loyalty to the Emperor and love for the country among the citizens.

Given her having a son who lost both legs, the acclaim she received also included a considerable amount of sympathy.

Therefore, when the discussion in the imperial study reached the public, the response was overwhelmingly positive.

Of course, the applause was directed towards Princess Ning'an, with many acknowledging her deserving status as the Grand Princess Protector.

Tang Yueshan heard the news while at the military camp.

His injuries had healed, but he still required daily rehabilitation. Bored of the rehabilitation at home, he decided to join the soldiers for training in the camp.

The current Hushan Camp was no longer the same as before.

After the reorganization of the Gu Family Army, they had moved to the nearby Langshan Camp, and the soldiers from the Langshan Camp were now stationed here.

Tang Yueshan's archers were among them, including the five hundred who had returned from the borderlands.

They had been trapped in Ye City with the army from the imperial court, and Tang Yueshan managed to lead them out of Ye City using a diversionary tactic.

Along the way, they were pursued by the State of Chen's army. Gu Jiao single-handedly blocked the pursuit, allowing Tang Yueshan to escape with the soldiers.

Although saving lives and providing medical care fell within the duty of a physician, risking one's life for the soldiers was not something she should do.

However, she still did so without hesitation.

The soldiers remembered how she risked her life for them, treated their injuries diligently, and even gave them the last chance to enter the city.

Upon hearing that she was to be bestowed the title of County Princess, the soldiers were genuinely happy for her.

Then, after that, they heard that Princess Ning'an would be appointed as the Grand Princess Protector. The soldiers… were somewhat puzzled.

But it was still acceptable. After all, she was an imperial princess. The Emperor and Empress Dowager Zhuang favored her. Them, the soldiers, just needed to watch.
