However, thinking that the little girl is also from the Baili Family, he felt much more at ease.
"Soone, convey this decree!"
Thus, an edict appointing Qi Yunqiao as a princess reached Baili Han’s hands.
Baili Han snorted coldly; his daughter was already a princess by right.
Yang Dongxue said, "Although Yunqiao is a princess in Great Qi, when she married Chengcheng, she didn’t use her princess status. Outsiders still think she’s just a distant relative of the Yang Family. The Mu Family is a noble family, and becoming a daughter-in-law of such a family requires social interactions with various families in the Capital City. Without a proper status, she might be looked down upon. By appointing her as a princess, the Emperor has given her a noble status. In the future, when she moves around the Capital City, no one will dare to underestimate her. You should appreciate this favor."
Baili Han thought it over and agreed.
He could have restored Yunqiao’s status himself, but he feared that potential future wars might involve Yunqiao.
These past few days, he had been contemplating that Yunqiao getting married under the guise of being a distant relative of the Yang Family wasn’t very respectful. Baili Yan was indeed doing them a favor.
After so thought, he invited Ye Haoyang to enter the palace to express their gratitude.
"Long ti no see!" Baili Yan had known he was in the Capital City and expected that he would co to the palace to see him, but he had no such intention.
"It hasn’t been that long. A month ago, I ca to the palace to see you. Upon seeing you reviewing docunts, I left the palace again."
"When did you co? How co I wasn’t inford?" Baili Yan was puzzled. It was impossible; no one would dare not report it.
Baili Han glanced at him, "Could I co through the front gate alone? Of course, I took the rooftop."
Soone ventured onto his rooftop, and he didn’t know, not even his secret guards were aware. Baili Yan felt uneasy. What if a skilled assassin ca...
"You’re overthinking it. There aren’t many with skills like mine." Baili Yan didn’t need to say it, as he could already guess what he was thinking.
"Haha..." Baili Yan let out a few awkward laughs.
"Thank you for Yunqiao’s matter."
Hearing him say thank you, Baili Yan felt as if the sun had risen in the west.
"She is also my niece. Elevating her to princess isn’t much."
Baili Han nodded. The two brothers seed unaccustod to this kind of casual conversation and fell silent for a mont.
Luckily, Baili Han changed the topic, "There are small nations in the south causing trouble again. Have you received the news?"
Upon discussing official affairs, Baili Yan noticeably lightened up, "I have. I hear that the two small nations, Yuelan and Yuehan, have obtained so excellent weapons from the West and think they can dominate."
"As long as you’re aware," Baili Han said. "They’re not particularly powerful weapons. I’ve seen them in the West; they’re just firearms. Although they have great power, they are few in number. Combined, the two small nations probably don’t even have two thousand pieces."
"I’m aware of that." Baili Yan said with a smile, "A few years ago, that boy Lele brought quite a few back by ship when doing business in the West."
"Indeed!"
As Baili Han spoke, he stood up, "Alright, I’m leaving the palace. Yunqiao went out of the city to offer incense today. I’ll have her co tomorrow to kowtow and thank you, Uncle."
"Not staying for a al?"
Baili Han waved his hand, "No, I never liked the palace als."
Sigh, watching him leave, Baili Yan sighed. The palace indeed lacks the warmth of ho.
"Go and summon General Ye for ."
While the two brothers caught up, Ye Haoyang waited in the side hall.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
"Rise." As he stood up, seeing the unique tassel hanging by his waist, the Emperor smiled, "So you have indeed married."
