Chapter 133 No limelight 2
Lin Xiangxiang knelt on the ground, stunned!
county lord?
Heaven and earth!
She had thought that Li Chenghe would reward her with some gold, silver, jewelry, calligraphy and paintings, but she had never thought of giving her such a big gift!
She has no family background or connections... No, she has a background!
So, a big part of the reason why she became a princess was because of Xie Beiheng, right?
I didn’t expect that I couldn’t pass the exam to get a job in modern times, but I did get one in ancient times.
This time she became a princess, eating the government's food and having housing allocated to her. Suddenly, she seemed to have a sense of responsibility towards Dayue!
Seeing Lin Xiangxiang standing there in a daze, hesitating to accept the order, Eunuch Liu smiled and reminded her, "Princess Minhui, please accept the order quickly. Congratulations to you, Princess!"
Lin Xiangxiang reacted and quickly stretched out her hands to take it, "Lin Xiangxiang accepts the order and thanks you!"
Xie Beiheng looked at the imperial edict in Lin Xiangxiang's hand, with a lot of thoughts in his mind, remembering what Li Chenghe had said to him.
"When I was young, I swore that when I grew up, I would take up arms and mount a horse to slay all the bandits, so that the people of Dayue could live in peace and contentment."
It seems that what Li Chenghe said that day was not false. He also knew that only when Dayue completely repelled the foreign enemies could the people live a peaceful and prosperous life.
Therefore, he knew better what the gunpowder invented by Xiangxiang meant to Dayue.
Xiangxiang's contribution will be remembered for generations to come. Xie Beiheng does not think that Li Chenghe made Xiangxiang a princess because of him.
Bai Shi had a smile on her face ever since Eunuch Liu announced the decree. She quickly asked Liu Lan to take out some silver to reward the people coming from the palace, and also ordered everyone in the mansion to be rewarded with half a month's salary.
Great joy, this is great joy!
She turned around and saluted Lin Xiangxiang, "Your Highness, I pay my respects to you, Princess!"
Ah this...
Lin Xiangxiang hurriedly supported her and said, "Madam, what are you doing? You are embarrassing Xiangxiang. Don't do this again in the future."
Bai Rushuang was her future mother-in-law, and she really couldn't bear to be asked to bow to her.
However, this also made her shudder. Oh my god, is her status now higher than Xie Beiheng?
If she had married him before, she would have been the Crown Prince's wife, but if she married him now, he would be the Duke of the County?
hahaha~
If selling antiques for 100 million yuan back then was considered a sudden wealth, then being rich and powerful now can only be described as a sudden rise in wealth and success, haha.
……
The news that the emperor had appointed a merchant's daughter as a princess quickly spread throughout the capital.
Everyone was shocked when they heard the news!
Meritorious in inventing and developing weapons?
What kind of weapon was invented that could transform a common woman into an extremely noble princess?
Upon some inquiries, I found out that this merchant's daughter was actually the unmarried wife of Xie Beiheng, the son of the Marquis of Zhenbei!
It was also at this time that everyone in the capital knew that the son of the Marquis of Zhenbei was actually engaged?
I have never heard of or seen the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion hiring a matchmaker and sending betrothal gifts before!
In an instant, countless noble ladies in the capital burst into tears.
At that time, half of the people in the capital were wondering what kind of weapon the princess had invented to receive such an honor; the other half were wondering how beautiful this merchant's daughter must be to win the heart of the brilliant and brave general, the God of War.
Anyway, for a while, this new princess was the talk of the town, and the three words "Lin Xiangxiang" were well-known.
Even Li Jingsheng rushed to the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion excitedly upon hearing the news, and whispered, "What kind of weapon is this?"
Xie Beiheng glanced at him and said, "It's confidential, you can't tell me!" Then he sent the man away angrily.
When the news reached Lin Xiangxiang's ears, she exclaimed, "Wow, it's on the hot search, and it's on the top 50!"
If gunpowder wasn't invented by her, she would have shamelessly said, "No need to guess, I am both smart and beautiful!"
After thinking about it, although it was not invented by her, it was indeed created with her knowledge and talent. Hehe, it doesn’t seem to be an exaggeration to say so!
Lin Xiangxiang and Xie Beiheng visited the Princess's Mansion once.
It is also so big that a pair of eyes cannot contain it.
But... she actually didn't really want the Princess Mansion. It was fine as long as it was still under renovation, but if it was completed in the future, what reason would she have to live in the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion?
The key point is that she spends most of her time in China. She has someone to cover her in the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion, so it doesn't matter if she moves around. If she lives in the Princess's Mansion, she will definitely be spotted in minutes.
The most important thing was that the portal to travel through time was in Xie Beiheng's study. She couldn't just leave the Zhenbei Marquis' Mansion and go to the Princess' Mansion, wander around, and then travel back to the Zhenbei Marquis' Mansion. Even a dog would find that too cumbersome!
Xie Beiheng curled his lips and said, "I still want the Princess's Mansion, but we won't live there. We talked about developing weapons before we got married, and after we got married, it's only natural!"
He was wondering before, if Xiangxiang wanted to marry him, where would she get married from? Now she has it, right?
Lin Xiangxiang nodded, thinking to herself, well, it is indeed necessary. If the couple quarrels in the future and it is not time for her to travel through time, she will go back to the Princess's Mansion!
(Sorry, this is all I can say for this chapter. I tried my best, but my baby has diarrhea and I can't write anymore. Sorry!)
