The Lingxiao Heaven Festival concluded with writs issued throughout the Nine States, announcing that the West Pole State had been pacified and that the Zhao Country was established. The Marquis of Wu'an was promoted to become the King of Zhao, causing a sensation all over the world.
In one breath, Great Zhou had conferred the title of Military Marquis on four people, and even made one of them a king. It was the grandest era in nearly three hundred years. Though there had been others who were made Military Marquis before, the scale of these recent promotions was indeed unparalleled. As for being crowned as a king? There hadn't been a single instance of that happening before.
After leaving Lingxiao Heaven and returning to Moonlight Heaven, Shen Zhui began to move into a larger marquis mansion. In terms of rank and status, it was a significant step up from his temporary residence.
