Chapter 1711: The Worlds Most Beautiful Woman
Translator: Lonelytree
He didnt dare to say this out loud.
One had to know that there was already a virtuous empress in the palace.
He also heard that the Emperor respected this Empress very much.
Therefore, it was unlikely that Empress Xiande would be deposed just like that.
It was even more impossible for the emperor to depose Empress Xiande and marry his adopted daughter, Princess Guguo. This was contrary to ethics and would be condemned by the world.
Since Princess Gu did not come back to marry the current Emperor, she must have come back to marry the Crown Prince or some other prince or grandson who would become the future Emperor?
Wait, they suddenly thought of something.
What they saw just now seemed to be the princess of Guguo and the general together, right?
If the princess of the Guguo married a prince or an imperial grandson, what would happen to the general?
Just now, they looked cold and serious. They probably heard the rumours and were in such a hurry.
But, Great General, Great General, what should he do?
Could it be that she really wanted to dump the Great General and marry into the Imperial Palace to become the Empress?
Everyone was thinking about Lin Yuelan marrying into the Imperial Palace and becoming the Empress, but they seemed to have forgotten that it was just a dream.
Although everyone was talking nonsense and they really wanted to make Princess Gu the Empress, they had forgotten about the General. Wasnt that a little wrong?
However, it was obvious that these people would not consider this problem.
Because almost everyone in the capital had been led by the nose by that rumour.
As soon as Jiang Zhennan and Lin Yuelan returned to the capital, they naturally went back to the Defender Generals Mansion.
When the housekeeper saw that the general and the princess had returned, he immediately cried tears of joy.
How long had it been since he last saw the general and the princess?
Think about it. Its been almost a year and a half, right?
After Princess Gu fell into a coma, they went back to Taoyuan Village. They only returned to the capital half a year later.
It had been a year and a half since they returned. It was really not easy for a servant like him to see his master.
The butler laughed and cried, General, Princess Guguo, youre finally back. This old servant has missed you to death.
Lin Yuelan was in a good mood when she saw the cute little old man. She smiled and said, Uncle Butler, we missed you so much too.
The butler immediately laughed and said, Young Madam, I miss you. Why didnt you come back for a year and a half?
Lin Yuelan immediately said, Hey, Uncle Butler, arent we back now?
The butler immediately reacted and nodded. Yes, its good that youre back. Its good that youre back. Young Madam, General, please enter! The butler made an inviting gesture.
When Jiang Zhennan and Lin Yuelan walked into the Defender Generals Mansion, the crowd of people who had stayed outside to watch the show was stunned.
Oh my G.o.d, is this the princess of the Guguo? Isnt she too beautiful? Shes as beautiful as a fairy, a national beauty. Theres no way to describe her beauty!
Thats right. Two years ago, the princess of Guguo had not even reached adulthood. Some parts of her body had not even matured yet, but she was already a beauty that could topple cities and countries. She had charmed countless men. Now, Princess Gu is already past the age of 16. What should be growing has already grown. You havent seen Princess Gu, that exquisite and tall figure, exquisite and perfect face. She can be said to be the worlds number one beauty.
Thats right, thats right. Princess Gu is the number one beauty in the world!
Hmph, Princess Gu has become the most beautiful woman in the world in just two years!
What do you mean? Some people didnt quite understand.
That person said, Do you still remember Princess Linglong of the Black Cloud Kingdom? Two years ago, she was known as the number one beauty of the Black Clouds Kingdom and the number one beauty of the world. However, how was she, the number one beauty in the world, compared to the beauty of tha the princess of Guguo? Hmph, you cant compare at all!
Shh! Someone beside him immediately tugged at his sleeve and reminded him, Dont let the people of the Imperial Grandprinces Nianor hear this. Shes not someone ordinary civilians like us can afford to offend. Hearing his reminder, the man immediately nodded.
Do you think the princess of Guguo will really become the empress?
Speak softly. Is this something we can discuss?
Although he said that, he was also curious and gossipy.
The current Princess of Guguo was not the same Princess of Guguo from two years ago.
Everyone in the world knew that Princess Gu was very rich.
All the provinces, counties, and cities in the country, as well as the main roads leading to the capital, were all thanks to her.
Because she was the one who paid for the repairs, more importantly, she was the one who paid for the cement. How much is a bag of cement?
Three taels!
How much cement would be needed to build so many roads?
It was said that someone had calculated that 100 meters long, o. 8 meters wide, o. A 15-thick road would require 8,000 catties of cement, which was equivalent to 320 bags. In other words, it would cost about 1,000 taels.
Therefore, the cost of these roads was at least 500,000 bags of water.
Millions of bags? What kind of concept was that? It meant that she had spent at least millions of taels to repair these roads.
Therefore, the people of Longyan Kingdom were very grateful for the kindness of the princess of Guguo.
At the very least, it was much more convenient for them to go to the big cities to buy and sell things.
After entering the hall, the servants had already served tea to the two masters.
The butler looked at their tired expressions and thought of the rumours in the capital. He asked worriedly, General, Young Madam, are you alright?
Lin Yuelan gulped down the tea as if she were a cow chewing on a peony.
Then, she said, Im so thirsty! After drinking this tea, it was really refres.h.i.+ng. Butler, where did you get the tea leaves? Its so delicious.
The butler replied, Young Mistress, this tea is tribute tea. It was later given to the General by His Majesty.
When Lin Yuelan heard that, she immediately said with great interest, Oh. It seems that I have to make a trip to the palace as soon as possible so that the old emperor can give me more of these tea leaves.
The butler was speechless..
