During the banquet, Xiaoyao reported to the King of Haoling that in three months' time, a grand worship ceremony to the heavens would be held in New City. At that time, Haoling Jiuyao would announce the merger of New City, Qingshui City, Rong City in the north, and Yuancheng into a single territory collectively named "Sifang City", and she would assume office as the City Lord of Sifang City. Upon hearing this report, the King of Haoling fell into a thoughtful silence. Xiaoyao blinked, bowed upward, and asked:
"Royal Father, do you find something improper with this?"
"Xiaoyao, given your current strength, the weight of a mere city lord is not enough. How about this? Tomorrow I shall issue an imperial decree conferring upon you the title of Prince Jing. How does that sound?"
