Chapter 199 Who is Master Ling?
The goddess knew very well that she was an abandoned child. Now the emperor of Dayong Kingdom was old and he had not held a beauty contest for his harem for a long time. Moreover, he had already married a goddess and would not marry another one.
This means that the person she will marry in the end is uncertain.
She must work hard on her own, such as building up her own momentum, to earn herself a good future and marry a truly powerful prince.
So whether she came to the capital in advance to spread the rumor that she was so beautiful, or she deliberately seduced the eldest prince to send her to the capital for marriage.
They are all trying to build momentum for themselves so that after she gets married, she will have a halo around her and won't be looked down upon by others.
Only in this way can she live a wealthy life with fine clothes and delicious food in the future.
The goddess' goal is to become the most popular, most watched, and most admired woman in the entire capital!
She built up her momentum in this way. She expected that as soon as she arrived in the capital, she would be watched and admired by thousands of people, and the officials of the Yong Dynasty would be fascinated by her.
I didn't expect that I would be given such a warning just after arriving in the capital, before I even walked into the city, but just after meeting the officials from the Ministry of Rites to receive me.
How could the goddess not care about this? She felt like it was a thorn in her throat.
She suppressed her irritation and comforted herself in her heart, thinking that it was okay, maybe it was just a few individuals like this, and her campaign in the capital would definitely be successful!
Sure enough, things turned out to be pretty much as she thought. Ever since she entered the capital, the Yue Kingdom group had been surrounded by onlookers.
Both sides of the road were crowded with people who came to watch.
The people were very excited and tiptoed to look over here, wanting to see the face of the goddess through the curtain of the carriage.
A gust of wind also blew over, lifting the curtain of the carriage, and the goddess's face was vaguely revealed.
There was a sudden gasp from the crowd, and everyone sighed: "This goddess is really as beautiful as the rumors say!"
"It's so beautiful, just like a fairy descending to earth!"
"I heard that the goddess can bring good luck, so she was worshipped as a goddess by the Yue Kingdom. I don't know which prince of our Dayong is so lucky to marry the goddess!"
“…”
Such discussions are heard everywhere.
The goddess finally raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a satisfied smile.
Yes, this is the effect she wanted.
The eldest prince, who was riding in the front of the carriage and watching his goddess being surrounded by the people of Dayong, had a proud smile on his face.
It was as if the goddess was not a human being, but an object that he could show off.
Just when the goddess' carriage was surrounded by the people and could hardly move.
Suddenly, a voice came from the crowd: "Master Ling has woken up, Master Ling has woken up, the son of my seventh aunt's eighth aunt's daughter just sent a message saying that Master Ling has just woken up!"
"What?! Master Ling is awake?" The crowd that was surrounded by people just now turned around in an instant and ran in one direction.
The Moon Goddess's carriage, which had been surrounded so tightly that it couldn't even move, was now deserted, apart from officials from the Ministry of Rites and the Imperial Guards who were doing their duty. Not even a single common person was there.
Oh no, there are also a few ordinary people.
For example, an old grandmother who walks unsteadily with the support of her grandson, but is still trying to take small steps to walk out.
The old lady's grandson was almost crying: "Grandma, if you don't hurry up, we won't be able to get a seat at the entrance of Prince Chen's mansion to kowtow!"
The old lady said nothing, but just quickened her pace with a determined expression on her face.
Finally, the grandson couldn't bear it anymore, so he carried his grandmother on his back and ran towards the Prince Chen's Palace.
There was no one around the Princess of the Moon Kingdom.
The young official from the Ministry of Rites was also very excited. He lowered his voice and said happily to the Minister of Rites: "Master Ling has woken up. Master Ling, who has been in a coma for half a month, has finally woken up. It's really God's blessing!"
The Minister of Rites also showed a relieved smile on his face: "Yes, he finally woke up!"
The eldest prince, who was riding in front, asked curiously, "Who is the spiritual master you are talking about?"
The Minister of Rites who was asked could not help but straighten his back, with an expression of pride: "Master Ling is the most powerful master in our Great Yong capital. She is proficient in astronomy and geography, has great magical powers, and is kind-hearted. There is nothing she cannot solve. We in the capital regard her as a living Bodhisattva who saves people from suffering.
Last time, when Beishan collapsed due to the evil god, it was Master Ling who controlled the collapsed mountain with his own strength, not only saving the lives of thousands of people in the villages around Beishan, but also preventing our capital from being affected.
Master Ling is the most respected master in our capital! ”
The eldest prince became interested when he heard this: "Oh? Really? Then I must find time to pay him a proper visit. I wonder if Master Ling likes to drink. The wine brewed by our Yue Kingdom is world-famous. This time, I brought a few jars of treasures!"
The Minister of Rites gave the eldest prince a strange look and said, "Looking for Master Ling to have a drink?"
"What? Master Ling doesn't like drinking? Then what does he like, weapons? Beauties?" The eldest prince asked with a frown.
The Minister of Rites then realized that the eldest prince actually regarded Master Ling as a man.
The Minister of Rites waved his hand and explained: "What? The Ling Master we are talking about is a woman, not a man."
"What? A woman?" The eldest prince frowned even more tightly, and he blurted out, "Can a woman be so powerful?"
This made the Minister of Rites unhappy. He had been able to tolerate the neglect just now, but now his face fell directly: "Prince, what you said is very offensive. Although our Master Ling is a woman, she is more powerful than a man, has a bigger vision than a man, and has a broader mind than a man!"
The eldest prince sneered and almost blurted out: "No matter how powerful a woman is, she is not as powerful as our goddess."
This made the Minister of Rites roll up his sleeves and was about to fight with the eldest prince, but the young official next to him stopped him and said, "Forget it, uncle, let's not bother with those who don't know how powerful Master Ling is! Let's finish the task quickly. Maybe we will have a chance to visit Master Ling in Prince Chen's Mansion later!"
It turned out that the Minister of Rites was the uncle of this minor official's family.
The Minister of Rites was stopped and took a deep breath to suppress his anger.
But the Minister of Rites never spoke another word to the eldest prince afterwards.
After sending the people to the post station, the Minister of Rites took them away.
