Chapter 759 - Economic and Trade Fair (1)
Three days later, the Qingqiu Empire officially announced the birth of the emperor's eldest daughter.
After the unanimous approval of several sages, the elders of the Inheritance Temple, and the courtiers, the little princess was officially established as the heir of the empire, and was given the name Lu Lanli, a name used by a great king of great fame from the ancient mythology of the Qingqiu civilization.
The Empress then announced that the whole country would celebrate three days, and issued a general amnesty, and rewarded the officers and soldiers of the Imperial Legion stationed all over the country and the Darkfeather Nebula Line! A grand celebration is held in the national capital, a banquet is held in the court for several days, and all the nobles and celebrities of the government and the opposition are entertained!
At nightfall, a grand fireworks display is held in the inner garden of the Forbidden Palace.
“…… Speaking of which, this style of party is still transmitted from the human world! Empress Deliwei, who had recovered, took a sip of fragrant juice and said to Xiao Junling beside her with a smile:
"It is said that the imperial grandmother studied in the imperial capital of China when she was young, and she liked this kind of fireworks celebration very much, so after returning to China and ascending the throne, she ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to prepare for it, and it will be no exception in the following years, and it will gradually form a custom!"
"Very good indeed!" Seeing the huge fireworks of different shapes and colors blooming in the night sky one after another, Xiao Junling exclaimed softly.
The little princess snuggled in his arms, and her big black eyes looked curiously at the changing scenery in the night sky, as if she couldn't get enough of it!
"By the way, what are you going to do with the requests of those great nobles?" The Empress asked, looking at him with her eyes wandering.
"There's no need to rush this matter, right? She was only three days old! Those people are really ...... Too passionate! Xiao Junling said helplessly.
What he is talking about is that some big people with high enough status have successively submitted requests to the empress to marry the royal family, and the object is naturally this little princess who was only three days old!
These bigwigs have more than one excellent male descendant in their families, and the little princess can choose among them at will in the future, and there is no limit to the number! After all, according to the tradition of the Qingqiu Empire, the future empress is entitled to have multiple imperial husbands!
Empress Delivia was noncommittal. All the replies were one sentence: "Go and ask His Royal Highness the Regent!" ”
Although the Qingqiu Empire is a women-respecting society, as the princess's biological father, of course has a say in this matter!
So these big people came to visit him with heavy gifts, promising all kinds of benefits, hoping that Xiao Junling could carefully consider their request!
Among them, there are members of the royal family from afar, great nobles who have been passed down from generation to generation, descendants of super strong, stars of generals, big chaebols who are famous in the sea of stars, and many feudal officials! There are even a lot of celebrities from outside the empire!
"According to the tradition of the empire, whenever a new princess is born, the empress will choose one or several marriage partners for her according to different considerations, of course, this is only a predetermined object of inspection. Whether it counts or not, the final decision will not be made until the princess and the boys of those families reach adulthood! ”
"Then you can do it! Anyway, we can't let our children suffer! Xiao Junling said.
If it had been according to his own wishes, he would have rejected them all! As long as there is a choice, he will never want his daughter to be used as a tool for interest marriage! It's just that he swept the faces of those big guys. It would be somewhat difficult for Her Majesty to do so, not to mention that they were not motivated by malice. It's just following the conventions of the upper circles. That's why he didn't turn his face on the spot.
Dai Liwei said softly: "Don't take it too seriously! The princess will take over the throne in the future, and she can't do it without the support of enough forces behind her, even if she is capable! But people can promise you that when the princess grows up, she can decide who she likes and who she doesn't like. No one can force her! ”
Xiao Junling's face suddenly softened, such a result was acceptable.
At another table in the distance, several important ministers of the empire sat together, discussing something in a low voice. From time to time, he glanced over to the Empress's seat.
“…… The princess's inheritance to the empire has been confirmed, which is a good thing! It's just ......," said the Prime Minister, Duchess Ronya, softly:
"His Royal Highness the Regent has not said anything more about his first daughter, who is currently the only bloodline! I don't know what you guys think? ”
Duchess Xingniye said in surprise: "His Royal Highness the Prince Regent has announced that he has given the little princess the permanent ownership of fifty super-grade resource star domains, as well as his fiefdom in the fifty-star domain of the Qingqiu Empire, and all rights and interests will be transferred to her name!" Isn't that enough? ”
Duchess Roulan Lisi said lightly: "Of course it's not enough!" Since the princess is the eldest daughter of His Royal Highness the Prince Regent, she should have an indisputable priority over all the wealth territories under his name! Whether it is in Huaxia or our Qingqiu Empire, such a practice has a legal basis! ”
"So he should also make a statement confirming the rights that Her Royal Highness deserves! It's the right thing to do! ”
Regarding the huge wealth and territorial resources in Xiao Junling's hands, these Qingqiu ministers all knew in their hearts that it was an amazing benefit that none of the three major empires could afford to ignore!
Although they didn't have the idea of snatching and encroaching on the interests in Xiao Junling's hands, they didn't want to let these riches fall into the hands of outsiders in the future! As long as there is the slightest possibility, they still hope that the princess can become the heir to these riches. Only in this way can the interests of the Qingqiu Empire be maximized!
And from the standpoint of these big men who believe in women's rights, as a man who is an empress, the queen of the empire, no matter how much property he has, he must leave it to his daughter in the future! Only in this way can we fulfill our obligations and duties!
Princess Sakurasugi said indifferently: "I once had a secret conversation with His Royal Highness the Prince Regent, and I vaguely probed his tone!" He just said that he would consider it, but I think Your Highness must have guessed our intentions! ”
"So he's not very willing?" Feather Yarn Kite, who has been promoted to marshal, said:
"Actually, this is also understandable, after all, His Highness is from the human world, and many ideas and concepts cannot be the same as us! Besides, we also know that he still has women over there, so ......"
Duke Luoya frowned and said, "From his standpoint, there may be nothing wrong with this!" But this is not in the interests of our Qingqiu Empire! So we have to find a way to make sure that the wealth that is indispensable to the empire is not controlled by outsiders! ”
Xing Niye's face sank: "Madame Prime Minister, what are you going to do?" Do you still want to come hard? Her Majesty didn't say anything! Doesn't it seem redundant for us to worry about such a problem? ”
Rou Lan Lisi glanced at her and said, "Of course, too drastic means are not feasible, but as courtiers of the Qingqiu Empire, we have the obligation to plan for the benefit of the empire!" So we shouldn't sit idly by! ”
The fifth prince Ye Shayun hesitated and said: "His Royal Highness the Prince Regent is not an easy person to fool, if he is not careful, it arouses his disgust, I am afraid that Her Majesty the Empress will not be able to explain it at all!" ”
Princess Sakurasugi smiled, "Is this...... Hongu already has a way! Anyway, as long as it is handled well, neither he nor Her Majesty the Empress will say anything! ”
Xingniye looked at her suspiciously, and didn't say anything more.
A few days later, when Empress Dai Liwei had fully recovered, Xiao Junling set off again to return to the imperial capital of China.
Before leaving, he had a separate conversation with Master Nightmare and Master Akismona, gave them the Sacred Fruit of Sora, and explained the situation of Beludindy.
"You can just watch and deal with this matter yourself, and we won't ask more!" Dream Tan Ye said with a big grin:
"Don't feel that you are at a loss, when she grows up in the future, her strength should recover soon, and it should be a big boost to your career, so you can say that you have made a lot of money!"
"Only by believing in you can you have a ghost!" Xiao Junling snorted.
Maybe Beludandi will really recover, but that can only be achieved with a sufficiently rich cultivation resource and a long period of time! It is impossible to return to the cultivation of the Sage level without any reason! In other words, if you want her to become strong, you still have to pay for it yourself and resources to cultivate it!
Akismona laughed, "Okay! Don't mention this! I heard that you plan to hold a special economic and trade fair in the imperial capital of China this time, why don't you leave some exhibition halls for us? When the time comes, we will transfer some supplies to help you build up! What do you think? ”
"Very well, then that's it!" Xiao Junling said with satisfaction.
Meng Yu Tan Ye hesitated for a while, and finally took out a palm-sized cyan jade figure and handed it to him with some pain:
"That damn Doomsday Emperor is likely to find you, so you'll have to be careful when you get back, don't let it take chance! Well, this is a doppelganger projection of others, you take it and put it away, in case of emergency, after activation, it can at least win you a chance to escape! ”
Xiao Junling couldn't help but be moved, the sage's doppelganger projection is not as good as energy war puppets, mirror warriors and the like, not only is it time-consuming and laborious to make, but it also consumes a part of the spiritual origin, and it is also more troublesome to recover afterwards! So this thing appears very rarely! You can't buy it on the market at all, unless it's a close relative or a disciple who is extremely valued by the sage, it's possible to get such a secret hole card!
"Thank you! I've made a note of this favor! He replied solemnly.
Meng Yu pinched him a few times hatefully: "Only now do you know that people are good to you, right?" Remember to live well, don't die by accident! ”
…………
It only took more than a day for the "Shadow Star Boat" to return to the imperial capital of China, and Xiao Junling immediately made an appointment to meet everyone at the Silent Star Temple to discuss the matter of the economic and trade fair.
Wei Qinghao has already arranged the venue, the relevant documents for the record, various administrative procedures and approval processes have all been completed, and the high-level supernatural team responsible for the security work of the Silent Star Temple has been put in place! In addition, the major friendly giants will also dispatch some forces to ensure the safety of the fair!
As for all the exhibited goods and resources, they have been sorted out by Empress Resli and Qi Yanmei and other women, and there are not many things left for Xiao Junling to deal with! (To be continued......)
