The unlucky guy was reborn as a lucky girl from a farm

Chapter 727 The ceremony is completed

The next morning, before the sun rose completely and only a hint of paleness appeared in the sky, Nie'er and the princess had already gotten up early.

After they finished washing up, they went to the east room together.

As soon as she entered the room, Nier saw many palace maids busy around a dressing table, on which were displayed a wide variety of exquisite hair accessories and cosmetics.

Nier sat in front of the dressing table somewhat stiffly, letting the palace maids dress her up.

As she listened to the noises outside gradually becoming more lively, she couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

At this time, the princess walked to Ni'er's side and comforted her: "Don't worry, just do whatever the emcee asks you to do."

"Even if you accidentally make a mistake, no one would dare to say anything to you. You've even been to the front lines, so there's nothing to be afraid of."

Nier looked at the princess gratefully and nodded.

Although the princess spoke easily, a thin layer of sweat involuntarily seeped out of her palms.

As time passed, the ceremony was finally about to begin.

Nier took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.

When the emcee began to give instructions, Nier followed what the princess had said before and obeyed the emcee's instructions completely. She did whatever the emcee asked her to do without hesitation.

Surprisingly, everything didn't seem as difficult as imagined.

Nier successfully completed one step after another, changed her hairstyle three times, put on exquisite makeup three times, and put on three sets of gorgeous clothes.

The third brother and Yan Zi looked at their graceful daughter in front of them, and a complex emotion surged in their hearts.

Every growth and change of their daughter makes them feel both sad and touched.

"My daughter has finally grown up." The third brother said with emotion, tears glistening in his eyes.

"Yes, time flies." Yan Zi echoed softly, her voice a little choked.

At this moment, the master of ceremonies for the coming-of-age ceremony loudly announced: "The ceremony is over!"

These two words brought this solemn ceremony to a perfect end.

Everyone originally thought that they could start the banquet and celebrate this important moment together.

However, amidst the jubilation, a sharp voice suddenly rang out: "The imperial edict has arrived~"

The sudden sound stunned everyone present.

Then, everyone knelt down in unison.

"The Emperor, by the Mandate of Heaven, proclaims: I have heard that commending virtue and honoring merit is a national principle; honoring relatives and righteousness is a code of conduct. I hereby inform you that your daughter, Xiaoni, of the Niu clan, possesses a chaste heart and natural wisdom. She has long been versed in military strategy and is dedicated to the well-being of the state."

"The border is in turmoil, and the transportation of food, fodder, and military equipment is difficult. You have worked together, made wise arrangements, and protected the rear, ensuring the safety of the soldiers on the front lines. This contribution to domestic peace is truly invaluable."

"I now confer upon you the title of Princess Anping, and bestow upon you the Golden Book."

"I also grant you a title, and make Qingyuan County your home. You will receive its taxes and an annual salary of 800 dan, which will be a permanent custom. I will grant you the crown and attire of a princess, along with the ceremonial guards as per the custom. I will allow you to establish your own government, and honor you. I decree this."

Most of the people kneeling could not believe their ears when they heard this imperial edict.

Only the Queen Mother and the Princess understood.

Those noble ladies had a mixture of love and hate towards Nier.

On the one hand, they are eager to establish a relationship with Nier in order to gain more benefits.

On the other hand, he looked down on Ni'er, a woman from a farming family, from the bottom of his heart.

However, Ni'er unexpectedly became a princess, not only having fiefdoms and annual salaries, but even being able to set up her own government office.

This was simply a fantasy for those noble ladies. They couldn't even imagine that such a thing would happen to them.

And Ni'er, a farmer's daughter, got all this easily. How could they feel balanced?

Originally, these noble ladies thought that Ni'er was just a farmer's daughter and must know nothing about the rules of the palace.

Maybe there will be a lot of jokes in the palace, which will be a good opportunity for them to watch the fun and use it as a topic of conversation after dinner.

But who could have expected that not only did Ni'er not make a fool of herself, but she also made them jealous.

After the thank-you ceremony, many people walked up to Nier with smiles on their faces and insincerely congratulated her.

Nier could naturally see through the hypocrisy of these people; their congratulations were not sincere.

However, Nier also understood that in such occasions, everyone was only getting along on the surface.

Nier didn't actually care too much about their venomous sincerity and honey-like words.

However, Lao San and Yan Zi only understood part of the imperial edict.

The two stood there, not moving for a long time.

After a long time, the third brother finally came back to his senses. He asked with a slightly trembling voice, "My daughter has become a princess? Is that right?" It seemed that even he himself could not believe it was true.

Yan Zi, who was standing by, couldn't help but tremble when she heard what the third brother said. Her voice also trembled with disbelief: "Yeah, it sounds like that to me, and it seems there's money to be made."

I saw many ladies surrounding Yan Zi, praising her daughter and asking her for advice on parenting.

"Congratulations! You're amazing! You raised such an amazing daughter. Share your experience with us!"

"Yes, yes, my daughter is already in her teens, but she's still naive. All she does all day is ask me for jewelry. She's completely clueless. Compared to your princess, they're worlds apart!"

"Don't hide it, tell us your secret!"

Faced with everyone's enthusiastic questioning, Yan Zi couldn't help feeling a little troubled.

Because she herself did not actually teach her daughter in a special way, and she did not really know how to teach children.

The reason why my daughter is so outstanding is, on the one hand, because she is very hardworking, and on the other hand, because she met a very good master.

However, Yan Zi couldn't just tell these people that it was all fate, it was innate, right?

If that happens, I'm afraid these people will resent her.

I quickly thought about how to say it to make it go away.

"Actually, I don't know anything about raising children."

"Our Ni'er has experienced many hardships since she was young. As the saying goes, 'Children of poor families grow up early.'"

"She saw me and her father working so hard day and night, and she couldn't bear it, so she became a disciple and decided to study medicine diligently, hoping to ease our burden."

"Nier is incredibly diligent in her medical studies. Not only does she memorize the names and properties of medicines while traveling daily, but even her sleep talk is about prescriptions."

"As a mother, I didn't really help much, and I feel a little ashamed to say that."
