Chen Mo had just dealt a crushing blow to Loulan, shattering their ambitions to march south. Taking things a step further was now a sure thing.
He was already the Commander of the Infantry Division and the Governor of Nanyang.
Moreover, he was no longer just the governor of a single prefecture—he now held sway over seven, making him no different from a true regional governor.
One step higher—what position was that?
That was the rank of Xiao Yunqi.
Granted the Nine Bestowals, permitted to enter the palace in sword and shoes, allowed not to rush when attending court, saluted without naming—he might even receive the privilege of mobilizing the Imperial Guard, something not even Xiao Yunqi enjoyed.
This was the highest honor the Emperor could bestow.
Chen Mo's investiture as a prince was as certain as could be.
At this level, even if Wu Xin'Er married him not as his main wife, it wouldn't disgrace the Wu Family.
