Chapter 56: Demoted to Concubine
"Indeed, the Green Team has achieved its success today under your excellent leadership. You are awarded the Cold Iron Dagger, and the rest of your team are promoted one rank each."
As expected, such words immediately stirred discussions among the surrounding people.
They all came from families of nobility and military merit, starting at a higher position than others. Now being promoted another rank, it was indeed an honor for themselves and their families.
Lin Guifei squinted at Lin Xingzhi, feeling a bit apprehensive.
He was originally an unranked guard of the Imperial City Department, and being promoted only made him Ninth Grade, still not even considered a court guard.
However, the second branch suppressing the first branch had long become a habit. The sudden promotion naturally made some people unhappy.
But since the imperial edict had been issued, no matter her displeasure, it was already a done deal.
Lin Wanyi heard this and was filled with joy standing at the back!
Finally! Finally!
Her brother had finally made a name for himself through his own abilities, even though now his rank was low compared to others.
But at least it was a good start.
While thinking about it, she suddenly felt something tighten around her waist, dragging her backward, pulling her away from the crowd.
