Chapter 351: Is She from Tuyun Village?
Qi Yu knew that Li Tianze had already walked into the trap she had set.
She raised her eyebrows slightly at Shi Zhou, then said to Li Tianze, "Father is right, but how would the Duke know that Shi Zhou is your niece? If he forms a bad impression of her first, that would be troublesome."
Li Tianze frowned, dissatisfied, "I haven’t even picked on them yet, and they want to look down on my niece?"
With a grand wave of his hand, he summoned Zhou Fu into the hall, and in front of them all, he conferred upon Shi Zhou the title of Princess Qinghe, with all the entitlements of a Princess, and also awarded her a separate residence in the capital city, along with some gold and silver jewelry.
In an instant, Shi Zhou transformed from the daughter of a bandit to a noble Commandery Princess.
Seeing her goal achieved, Qi Yu curled her lips, drew back to one side, and faded into obscurity.
Shen Xiheng glanced at Shi Zhou, who was still stunned, and whispered in her ear, "You should thank him now."
Shi Zhou looked at the person sitting on the Dragon Chair, performed a courtesy, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Li Tianze was a bit disappointed not to hear her call him uncle, but he knew better than to rush these things, so he suppressed the sentimental feelings within him and said to her, "Rise."
In the end, he didn’t manage to keep the person in the palace for a meal; only Qi Yu and Li Mingjue kept him company.
