The imperial envoy personally dispatched by the Emperor, carrying the posthumous honor for Wen Qiliang and the decree appointing Wen Xingzhi as the Commander of Youzhou, hurried along the journey and finally arrived in Youzhou smoothly, one day before the auspicious burial date selected for Wen Qiliang.
With the imperial decree in hand, from this day forward, Wen Xingzhi would be the grand and rightful commander of Youzhou's three hundred thousand troops.
After arranging accommodations for the imperial envoy, Wen Xingzhi had a brief sibling conversation with Wen Xirou.
Wen Xingzhi looked at Wen Xirou and said, "You don't have to marry into the Eastern Palace anymore. Are you happy about that?"
Wen Xirou didn't hide her feelings; in Wen Xingzhi's eyes, she saw no point in pretending. She nodded sincerely, "That's true, as big brother says."
