He doesn't appear once for months or even years, and doesn't bring much tangible benefits to the people, so his prestige has dropped a lot this time.
But Gu Xijiu is very popular this time. She quelled the rebellion of the fake Zuo Tianshi, saved the resentful spirits, and cured His Majesty Yung Jialuo. When the people were in trouble, she almost responded to their requests and saved them from fire and water...
The people have a stronghold in their hearts, and they naturally respect and admire Gu Xijiu more and more. In the eyes of the people, her prestige has faintly surpassed that of Zuo Tianshi. Therefore, her being named the Great Heavenly Protector of the Country is also the popular wish and the general trend.
Gu Xijiu was promoted to the Grand Protector of the Country. After hearing the news, her friends also came to congratulate her.
First came the friends she brought out from the forbidden area, then the fellow practitioners from Tianjutang, then the other Tianzhi disciples, and even the King of the Shark Tribe, Lan Yaoguang, came in person...
For three days in a row, Gu Xijiu's newly built Grand Master's Mansion was busier than ever, with guests filling the door and cars and horses filling the streets.
Gu Xietian naturally came back as well. He is a general who often hangs out in official circles, so he can handle these guests with ease and will not let the Great Heavenly Master's Mansion lose face.
Luo Xinglan actually showed up with her two sons. Although she still ignored Gu Xietian, she still took on the role of housekeeper and took care of Gu Xijiu's internal affairs.
Not only did she come, she also brought other disciples from her sect. These disciples were very loyal to Luo Xinglan, and naturally they were also very loyal to the eldest lady Gu Xijiu. Therefore, although Gu Xijiu's Great Heavenly Master's Mansion was established, It was rushed, but not chaotic at all. Everything was arranged in an orderly and orderly manner.
As for Luo Zhanyu, he also lived in Gu Xijiu's mansion for three days, and together with other people from the forbidden area, acted as a protector around Gu Xijiu.
As the host, Gu Xijiu is not that busy. She is only responsible for meeting the guests who come to congratulate them. If she doesn't want to meet them, she can also turn them down and let Gu Xietian and others entertain them.
Perhaps Rong Jialuo intended to promote Gu Xijiu. The Great Celestial Master's mansion he built for her was larger and more spectacular than the mansions of the left and right Celestial Masters.
With cornices and brackets, the palace stretches to the sky.
There are small bridges and flowing water, and the pavilions and pavilions are full of originality.
Gu Xijiu walked around the house and admired the surrounding scenery.
It must be said that Rong Jialuo really put his heart into making her mansion comparable to the Grand View Garden in Dream of Red Mansions. Every step of the way changes the scenery, and every place can be captured in the painting. It is both luxurious and elegant.
The eunuch next to her, the Great Eunuch, lost no time in saying to her with a smile: "Great Heavenly Master, your Majesty designed this place yourself. Are you satisfied?"
I didn't expect Rong Jialuo to have such a ridge in his chest!
Gu Xijiu nodded: "Satisfied! Thank you Your Majesty for me."
The little eunuch naturally responded with a smile.
There is also an artificial lake in this mansion. There are weeping willows on the lakeside. The lakeshore is paved with five-color pebbles. At the end of the lake is a bamboo forest, with bamboo leaves rustling in the wind.
Gu Xijiu walked by the lake and looked at the surrounding scenery. She suddenly felt that this style seemed familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere.
She pondered for a moment, then suddenly something moved in her heart. She turned her head and asked the eunuch Rong Jialuo next to her: "Was this mansion originally the residence of His Highness the Eighth Prince?"
The eunuch apologized and said, "The Great Heavenly Master really has a sharp gaze. This place was indeed the residence of Prince Rong. Eight years ago, His Highness the Eighth Prince committed the crime of treason, so this residence was confiscated.
