Chapter 190 There is new gossip
The Eighth Princess smiled delicately: "The Moon Kingdom doesn't often send goddesses to visit us. To put it nicely, they are here to visit us, but to put it bluntly, they are here to marry us.
The status of the goddess in their country is very high. Before the age of 28, she is worshipped. After the age of 28, she will be granted the mandate of heaven to marry the high priest of the Moon Kingdom, and then the next goddess will be selected.
Usually, the Yue Kingdom encountered some major problems that were difficult for them to handle on their own, and they wanted to seek long-term help from our Yong Kingdom, so they sent their most noble goddesses to come for marriage and marriage, in order to seek the protection of our Yong Kingdom.
It is said that every goddess is extremely beautiful, so beautiful that the kings of two countries would go to war for her at just one look. ”
Wen Ling thought of Gu Chenran's almost enchanting face. Since he didn't look much like the emperor, he must be more like his biological mother.
Gu Chenran is so handsome, so one can imagine that his mother must be very beautiful as well. It's a pity that she was just so beautiful but had a tragic life.
Wen Ling frowned again, not knowing what he was thinking of. "Who is the goddess of the Moon Kingdom going to marry this time? It can't be the emperor, right? The emperor is old enough to be the goddess' grandfather, right?"
"Cough cough cough..." The Eighth Princess, who was drinking tea, spat out a mouthful of tea. She didn't expect Wen Ling to speak so bluntly and wildly.
After the Eighth Princess finished coughing, she said, "Of course it can't be my father. My father married the goddess because he was in his prime. This time, he should choose a prince of the right age from among the princes for marriage. I just don't know which one he will choose."
Wen Ling was not interested in which prince the goddess would marry in the end, but she was more interested in the Moon Kingdom.
She had a vague intuition that the Moon Kingdom was not simple and might be related to the Lord of the World.
That God who rules the world certainly didn't appear out of thin air, he must have his foundation.
The capital city and even the entire Dayong Kingdom have been thoroughly investigated, and it was finally found that it was a wooden statue. The wooden statue could not have appeared out of thin air, it must have been given by someone.
But who gave it to me? It often gets disconnected in the end.
If she had the chance, she really wanted to visit the Moon Kingdom.
Seeing that Wen Ling was not interested in such gossip, the Eighth Princess stopped talking.
She just said, "Just wait and see. There will be more good shows to watch in the capital. Every time the Moon Country Goddess comes, a lot of bloody things happen."
Sure enough, the next hot search list of public opinion in the capital changed from the affairs of Duke Rong's family to the upcoming visit of the Moon Goddess.
There are a lot of gossips coming from the people in the capital.
I heard that this time the goddess was exceptionally beautiful, and she was truly the kind that could conquer a city with one smile and a country with two smiles.
In order to get her, the three Khans of the Yue Kingdom fought against each other, resulting in countless casualties.
When the goddess of the Moon Kingdom found out about this, she was very angry and sad, and felt that she was the one who committed this sin of murder.
Finally, she took the initiative to tell the high priest that she was willing to marry into the Yong Dynasty for the sake of Yue Kingdom in order to end this farce.
This is the marriage alliance that the Moon Goddess came to arrange.
It seems like they were forced to do so, and the reason sounds very plausible.
The common people talked about it with relish, but the upper class nobles just treated it as a joke.
They are all here to marry, no matter what their previous identities were, after they get married, their unified identity is that of a wife of a foreign race.
Who is nobler than who?
In particular, there is a saying that those who are not from my race must have different hearts. For women from other races who marry into my family, their life after marriage will only be more difficult.
The upper class nobles would only care about who the Moon Country Goddess would marry after she arrived. They would have to carefully consider whether or not to marry their daughters to that family.
The rest are easy to explain. Throughout the dynasties, there were many families who were slandered for treason and then the whole family quarreled and exiled after marrying foreign princesses. There were even princes who were directly excluded from the qualification of inheriting the throne because they married foreign princesses.
Those truly large and powerful families that have been passed down for hundreds of years will not allow such risks to happen, so they will avoid having their daughters marry into such families, to avoid getting themselves involved if something goes wrong.
But this also raises a very realistic problem, that is, marrying a princess or goddess from a foreign country means losing the help of the aristocratic families.
The marriage with the goddess of the Moon Kingdom has become a hot potato, and no one wants to take it.
Just when the court was in turmoil due to the arrival of the Moon Goddess, Wen Ling turned a deaf ear to the outside world and focused on her research.
The black shadow related to the Lord of the World that had escaped from the basement of Lin Qingxuan of the Imperial Observatory earlier ran into the stone wall behind the North Mountain.
Because that stone wall is like the "load-bearing wall" of the entire mountain, so even if you know there is a secret behind it, you can't just dig it. Otherwise, if the mountain collapses, several nearby villages will be affected.
After Wen Ling reported the matter to the emperor, the emperor ordered the people in the Ministry of Works to carve out the stone wall no matter what means were used.
In a blink of an eye, more than a month had passed since this incident happened. With Wen Ling's daily urging, there was finally a result.
Today, the emperor called Wen Ling into the palace and told her that the stone wall over there had been chiseled to the point where it could be opened in just one step.
However, because he didn't know what was inside, the emperor ordered not to act rashly and specially invited Bai Miaomiao to discuss how to properly handle this matter first.
When Wen Ling found out, he ran towards the stone wall without saying a word.
When the emperor heard that Wen Ling was leaving, he immediately became anxious: "No, you're leaving now? Wait for me, I asked you to come here just to ask if you can take me with you, otherwise I could just send someone to tell you, why would I specially call you into the palace?"
Wen Ling said without even turning his head: "If you are not afraid of danger, then come with us!"
The emperor wanted to follow on the spot, but when Wen Ling said there was danger, the people around the emperor stopped him, saying that he could not go if it was dangerous, and asked the emperor to think twice.
The emperor looked at Wen Ling's back as she ran faster and faster, and he was so anxious. He was too curious, and if he didn't catch up, it would be too late!
At this time, Gordon, who was beside the emperor, spoke up: "Your Majesty, if that's the case, why don't you let Gordon go in your place? When the time comes, I'll come back and tell you everything that happened over there!"
The emperor had no choice but to send Gordon.
Fortunately, Gordon has a good ability to retell stories. If we send him to watch it, he will probably be able to tell a wonderful story when he comes back!
Gordon was so happy that he finally had the chance to travel with Wen Ling!
