Chapter 1016: 466: Terrifying Fu Lingxi!_2

After the wedding, Zhen Yan Princess will ascend the throne as queen, and Suo Lun will become the regent prince of Rage Wave Kingdom!

...

Suo Lun, Zhen Yan Princess, and Duke Zhi Ting, the three of them

Palace eunuchs were sent to the residences of Minister of Personnel Heimu, the Yan Clan family, and the Gui Xingfu residence to issue imperial commands.

Heimu, Minister of Personnel, is appointed as the Deputy Prime Minister of the kingdom’s cabinet. In the absence of the Prime Minister and the regent duke, he will temporarily take charge of the kingdom’s internal affairs.

Gui Xingfu is appointed as the Minister of Punishments of Rage Wave Kingdom and served concurrently as a cabinet minister.

Yan Wuzhi is appointed as the Governor-General of Zhi Du, and served concurrently as a cabinet minister.

The relatives of the original Prime Minister Yan Wujie, although they barely managed to keep their lives, had to surrender most of their family wealth. Key members of the clan who previously held high positions in the kingdom were all dismissed, waiting for another call from Rage Wave Kingdom.

Moreover, the residence of Prime Minister Yan Wujie was reclaimed by Suo Lun’s decree and granted to Yan Wuzhi.

From then on, Yan Wuzhi became the head of the Yan Clan family.

After receiving the decree, he came before the ancestral tablets, knelt down, and wept uncontrollably.

For how many years?

More than thirty years now!

Every time when he visited the Yan residence, Yan Wuzhi had mixed emotions.

From an early age, in any exam, whether it was civil or military, he outperformed his older cousin, Yan Wujie.

But since the age of ten, every time he saw Yan Wujie, he had to pay his respects, and at every clan assembly, he had to stand in the back, while Yan Wujie could sit at the most central location.

Just because Yan Wujie was the legitimate heir, while he was born of a concubine.

Yan Wujie became the Prime Minister of the cabinet before he was fifty.

And Yan Wuzhi, in his forties, was still just the Chief Historian of the Governor’s Mansion of the Southeast Province, and this was already his limit. None of the governors of the eleven provinces of the kingdom were his to claim.

Because every governor of a province must be of noble birth.

And in the whole Yan Clan, there was only one person with a noble title, and that was Yan Wujie.

Now, Yan Wuzhi had finally received it all – a cabinet position, the Yan Clan family residence, and a noble title.

When Zhen Yan Princess is crowned queen, Yan Wuzhi will be officially bestowed with the title of Viscount of the kingdom.

"Father, your son has chosen the right lord and has finally achieved what you never dared to dream of in your lifetime." Yan Wuzhi once again knelt and kowtowed, tears streaming down his face.

After kneeling before the ancestral tablets for a full fifteen minutes, Yan Wuzhi rose, wiped his tears, and walked outside.

When he opened the door, hundreds of people were gathered in the courtyard, neatly kneeling down.

"Greetings to the family head!"

"Greetings to the honored teacher!"

From now on, Yan Wuzhi is the unmatched master of the Yan Clan family, the highest leader of the Yan Party.

...

"Old servant Gui Xingfu thanks the lord for his heavenly grace!"

Compared to the lavish residence of Yan Wuzhi, the residence of Gui Xingfu was a bit inferior.

At this time in the royal city, the Earl of Linhai’s mansion is still there, occupying one or two hundred acres, magnificent and splendid, with servants and maids still taking care of it.

However, this Earl’s mansion no longer belongs to Gui Xingfu; its current owners are Gui Qinshao and her unborn child.

But at this moment, Gui Xingfu feels proud and does not have any regrets.

He has officially received the decree that he will serve as the Minister of Punishments of the kingdom and concurrently as a cabinet minister.

Of course, the Black Dragon Platform Minor Minister Yin Du has also been promoted and became the Vice Minister of Punishments.

When receiving the decree, Gui Xingfu couldn’t help but cry aloud.

He has finally made a name for himself.

From being a prisoner who could have been skinned and flayed at any moment, he has become a Cabinet Minister of Rage Wave Kingdom. From hell, he has climbed to heaven.

Indeed, in some respects, the weight of a Cabinet Minister is not as significant as that of the kingdom’s nobles.

But Gui Xingfu has already been a noble. Now, serving as a Cabinet Minister, his authority and position have actually surpassed the time when he was the City Lord of Linhai.

He has carved a new path for the Gui Family Clan. At fifty-six, he can still dash through the cabinet for another ten years.

In these ten years, it will be enough for him to raise his sons, Gui Qinqu and Gui Qinzhong.

Gui Qinqu taking up a civil post, and Gui Qinzhong a military one! Brothers, one civil and one military, will build a powerful Gui Family Clan ten years later.

As for the once outstanding eldest son, Gui Qinbi, he has been abandoned.

Because Gui Qinshao detests this older brother, this shameless eldest son who dared to tarnish the mother Turing Si in private, is worse than a beast.

If Gui Qinshao detests Gui Qinbi, then Suo Lun will certainly dislike Gui Qinbi.

And if Suo Lun dislikes Gui Qinbi, Gui Xingfu must cast him into the eighteenth level of hell.

His other two sons, Gui Qinqu and Gui Qinzhong, may not be as exceptional, but they are steady and reliable.

Moreover, the two brothers have always been affectionate towards their sister, Gui Qinshao, taking on countless troubles for her since they were little.

Although Gui Qinqu and Gui Qinzhong are still in jail at this time, they will surely be released when Zhen Yan Princess ascends the throne.

By then, a few words from Gui Qinshao in Suo Lun’s ear will ensure the two brothers achieve great success.

"Hahaha, by then, my Gui Family Clan will have two nobles, one as a lord and the other in the court." Gui Xingfu said proudly in his heart: "Among all the nobles of Rage Wave Kingdom, my Gui Family Clan will rank third!"

True, Yan Wuzhi is the Prime Minister in Suo Lun’s eyes.

But this man is too upright, posing as someone loyal to the kingdom, not personally devoted to Suo Lun.

Gui Xingfu is different; from beginning to end, he will only show one attitude: I am loyal only to Suo Lun.
