Chapter 2133 It Will Definitely Be Good for You

Gu Xin had heard of this King of Donglin, who was the same age as her grandfather. He rose to power through military exploits and was valued by the late emperor. Forty years ago, the late emperor was recalled from his fiefdom by the Empress Dowager. At that time, Yunzhou was in chaos.

This King of Donglin had made great contributions at that time. The Empress Dowager and the emperor needed a military general to deter them. The Peng family was far away in Kunzhou, and the Ying family was in the south. The King of Donglin gave the late emperor an idea, and finally successfully stabilized the country. The King of Donglin was crowned king.

He held the military power and helped the Empress Dowager and the late emperor to completely stabilize the country. Then he handed over the tiger talisman and retired from the court at the age of thirty, saying that he was injured on the battlefield. He moved to his fiefdom of Taizhou.

Because of his sensibility, the Empress Dowager and the late emperor gave him the fiefdom of Taizhou. Otherwise, it would be impossible to give a king of a different surname to a place so close to the capital.

Even now, the Empress Dowager still talked about the King of Donglin and the Princess of Donglin when chatting with Gu Xin and her sisters.

The King of Donglin was born in the countryside. He was a hunter in a small village in Yunzhou. After getting married, he served in the army. Because he was in Yunzhou, he could go back to the village every year to visit his wife and children.

When his fourth child was born, the situation was very tense and it took five years to stabilize.

The Queen Mother did not talk about the King of Donglin to the children. The focus was on the Princess of Donglin, an illiterate village girl who supported the Donglin Palace.

The King of Donglin listened to the Princess of Donglin for many decisions.

Their family was so sensible, so the royal family was willing to give them face and make them kings. The title was hereditary. As long as they did not rebel or do anything unfavorable to the Great Zhou, their throne could be passed down from generation to generation. Every daughter of the King of Donglin was directly made a princess from the moment she was born.

"Lord Qin, I have heard of this King of Donglin. Their son died of illness a few years ago. Did the King of Donglin not ask for the title of the son?" Gu Xin asked.

"That's right. Logically speaking, the eldest son of the Prince of Donglin has married and had children. The Prince has passed away, so the position of Prince should belong to the eldest grandson of the Prince of Donglin. However, I don't know why the Prince's Mansion has never asked for the title of Prince." Lord Qin replied.

"Okay, I'll go to the palace first. You can make arrangements here, and we can probably set off when I come out of the palace." Gu Xin nodded and said.

"Okay, Princess, I will send Xiaoqiu to bring He Gang and He Qiang with you. The princess can bring the rest of the people herself, or find someone from the government office after arriving in Taizhou Prefecture. By the way, I have also transferred Captain Gao to you." Lord Qin said.

"Thank you, then I'll leave first." Gu Xin said hello to Zheng Qiu again, and directly asked the carriage of the Dali Temple to take her to the palace.

"Sir." After sending Gu Xin away, Zheng Qiu seemed to have something to say.

"Xiaoqiu, following Princess Xinxin will definitely be good for you. Do your job well!" Lord Qin patted Zheng Qiu on the shoulder.

"Okay." Zheng Qiu didn't say it in the end.

She didn't want to go to the Donglin Palace because she had a marriage contract when she was young, which was arranged by the Donglin King and the old Marquis of Yong'an. However, she was harmed by her stepmother, so her marriage contract was naturally arranged by her stepmother to her daughter.

Her stepmother was a concubine promoted to the wife, and her stepmother's daughter was two years older than her. Now she is married to the eldest grandson of the Donglin King. She doesn't really want to meet those people now.
