Situ Xie, whether satisfied or not with the outcome, could only thank Duanmu Yi for his grace and could not raise further requests on this matter, at least not tonight.
Two important matters were settled at the night banquet.
Duanmu Qianqian would marry into Liang Country and become the crown princess of Liang Country.
Gu Ling, once the most wanted fugitive in Qian Country, transformed into the new Marquis Chang Xin, with a noble title. The former Marquis Chang Xin's mansion had now become Marquis Zhong Xin's mansion, Duanmu Yi even gifted Gu Ling a new mansion.
Many things, even if the inside story was complicated, could be handled as long as there was some public explanation.
Su Liang was satisfied with the outcome.
After leaving the palace, Su Liang still went back with Xing Yusheng and Lin Xueqing, riding in their carriage.
Qi Yan drove the carriage, slowly leaving the square in front of the Imperial Palace.
