1805 He Xi Princess


    Gu shouxin, with his years of experience in power and his undisguised aura of a superior, led the officials from the Ministry of Rites to sign the agreement in only three days. At the same time, they also divided their respective territories.


    The small tribes that didn’t participate in the war naturally didn’t have the right to divide the territory. Only goz sarin and quicksand had the right to do so.


    Gu shouxin had taken all the areas East of the territory that Cheng huaijin had massacred. Salin and Gaozi were envious, but they didn’t dare to fight for it.


    Gu shouxin made it clear to the leaders that the great Zhou would build a princess’s temple at the ce where Cheng huaijin massacred the city. At that time, as long as people passed by this ce, they would have to go in and offer incense. The owner of this Princess ‘temple would naturally be Cheng Huaiyu.


    With the emperor’s decree, he conferred the title of “Princess Xi” to Cheng Huaiyu, the adopted daughter of Gu Qingyuan, the current magistrate of Lin province, and Peng Yizhu, the youngest daughter of Duke Zhong’s mansion. She had made an indelible contribution in the battle of annihting thenge Kingdom and conquering the Western Cloud Sea, so she built a Princess temple for future generations tomemorate and remember.


    At the same time, Cheng Huaiyu’s son, Cheng Yun, was conferred the title of Hexi Junwang for five generations.


    The people in the West didn’t know Cheng Huaiyu, but they heard that a girl from the great Zhou was held hostage by the people of thengge Kingdom. She stayed calm and provided a lot of useful information to the great Zhou. In the end, she allowed the great Zhou to chase the cloud Sea general Yun na and the royal family of thengge Kingdom to Gaozi.


    In the West, there was no such thing as a man being stronger than a woman, but to be able to gather so much information so calmly and smartly in the enemy camp, it was admirable. Therefore, everyone epted what Gu shouxin said, that in the future, as long as people passed by the princess’s temple, they had to go in and offer incense.


    Cheng huaijin looked at Gu shouxin and the great Zhou’s diplomatic mission with aplicated expression. He used to hate the great Zhou for letting his sister, a weak woman, stay in thenge Kingdom, even though he knew in his heart that if he went to rescue her at that time, many of his arrangements would be exposed, and he might not be able to save her.


    After Gu yingxue had been kidnapped, great Zhou had gone to save her. He also hated it. Although his sister and Gu yingxue were adopted daughters, his sister had hurt the Peng family. When he was not in his right mind, he would think that the Peng family had deliberately not sent troops.


    He never thought that the Emperor of great Zhou would give Cheng Huaiyu such an honor. He named her as the adopted daughter of the Gu family, but didn’t erase her surname. When theter generations mentioned her, they knew that her surname was Cheng and her name was Huaiyu. She wasn’t the daughter of a Minister whose father hadmitted a crime, but a Princess who had made contributions to great Zhou.


    He even gave Cheng Huaiyu’s son, Yun GE ‘er’s son, the glory that only the son of Princess Yun GE’ er would have.


    Cheng huaijin didn’t know what to say. If it was possible, he would rather his sister live than to need this false reputation. However, things had alreadye to this. There were no ‘ifs’ in this world.


    Gu shouxin nodded at Cheng huaiyun and continued.


    This time, they had brought many craftsmen and farmers. As long as they signed the agreement, when the craftsmen built the princess’s temple in Gaozi, each country could send people to learn the art. The great Zhou’s farmers would also be sent to each country to teach them how to grow grains, vegetables, and fruits that were not avable here. This time, they had brought enough seeds, and the farmers had also brought some more experienced ones.


    A few days ago, everyone had eaten rice, potatoes, sweet potatoes, and some vegetables that couldst for a long time. These were all food that filled their stomachs and were not as greasy as meat. Moreover, they couldst for a long time, so the people in the West were very happy.
