The Banquet 2

Gu Sheng rang the bell and several maidservant dressed in brown and white clothes and braided hair came in. Food and beverages were served.

Rong stepped forward as he carried a golden scroll. When all the eyes were on him, he opened the golden thing and read written words loudly and clearly.

"By the power given to me by the Emperor as the Lord King and second to the power of the Emperor, I The First Prince Ming Li Shen will hereby decree that Lord Gu Sheng, The Southern City Lord will have his status upgrade by one rank of the Lord Ranking giving him the title as "The Lord of Might". This is an account to his good deeds and might against the enemies and being abled to hold evidence of the enemy's spy."

On the table, Gu Sheng hurriedly stood up and moved to the front as he wear a surprise reaction. He gave his respect and received the tittle.

"This servant is truly grateful by His Highness grace. Long live to the First Prince." Gu Sheng kowtow.

The guests in the hall happily greeted their Lord while some others hid their envy.

"Doctor Fang and Miss Ye move forward." Rong Ho called and the two white figures stood up from their seats, moved to the front and gave their respect.

Rong Ho nodded and continued reading.

"Secondly, I reward Doctor Fang one thousand gold coins and one hundred gold coins to his student. Additional to these, I also declare Doctor Fang as my Personal Physician titling him as a "Royal Doctor" under the Lord King's name and access to The Lake Mansion and to the Royal Pharmacy. This is an appreciation to his great medical skills and saving the life of the Southern City Lord and the lives of Southern City Officers."

Mo Fang gasped under his mask upon hearing the next statement. Shuang was also surprised as she did not expect the purple eyes prince to be this magnanimous.

The prefecture hall was filled of gasped and surprised reaction upon hearing the second reward of the Prince.

"Rewarding a big sum of money is just right as it's the usual things to give in terms of reward but giving a title...This Doctor Fang is truly lucky to have the First Prince's favor."

One of the officer's wife commented.

"Well, I heard that this is the first time that the First Prince actually attended a banquet beside the Emperor's birthday banquet so we did not know that he was this kind of magnanimous." The officer said to his wife.

"When will the First Prince look at this side? Sighed. "If only I was allowed to get nearer and the First Prince never gave the statement of forbidding anyone to talk to him...." The daughter voiced out and the mother sighed to her daughter's statement.

The other daughters of the officers and the noble ladies also complained secretly and silently in their seats by the First Prince's statement earlier of forbidding anyone to go nearer to him within the distance of ten meters? How could they display their beauties and charms clearly if they are at this distance away from the Prince? When the Prince didn't even bother to look around and just sat up there, slightly lend back to his chair, right palm under his chin with eyes being closed?
