Arad's crooked savior

Chapter 2812 Mother-in-law’s wisdom

The picture scroll slowly unfolded on the desk suddenly opened a magnificent map of mountains and rivers, with mountains, rivers, oceans... hundreds of thousands of miles of world all contained in one piece of paper.

Even Empress Josephine, who is the most powerful empire in the Arad continent, held her breath slightly when facing this map of mountains and rivers, and stared at it the whole time, for fear of disturbing the solemn and solemn atmosphere.

She had already heard the news that broke the common sense of geography. The morning after the "Everything for Sale" ship returned to port, Northmar's newspaper was already on her desk.

Queen Skadi of the principality was wise and tolerant and said that the great geographical discovery should belong to the whole world, so she selflessly disclosed the nautical chart.

That same day, a copy of the nautical chart also appeared on Queen Josephine's desk.

However, the navigation chart was not as detailed as the one Ye Lin gave now. Queen Skadi probably made it blurry on purpose.

Sixty to seventy percent of the fine navigation charts will be made public to the world to earn a reputation, and ten percent of the perfect navigation charts will be kept in the name of the principality. The first few major voyages will definitely be led by the principality.

As for why the news spread so quickly, it was because there were people from Dros in all major cities.

They are not considered to be internal spies placed by Queen Josephine in Belmare, but some very normal intelligence workers who are responsible for transmitting news and events within the principality that are worthy of the empire's attention, and can be sent to the empire as soon as possible after they occur. .

Although Queen Josephine understood that the queens of various countries had some unclear and ambiguous relationship with Ye Lin, Skadi also gave birth to a daughter for him.

He can coordinate and mediate many conflicts between countries, greatly reducing the possibility of war.

But a "country" is a country after all, a huge social collective composed of tens of millions or hundreds of millions of individuals with different consciousnesses. When it intersects with other social collectives, it is impossible for no problems to arise, large or small. Count on Ye Lin to mediate everything.

At the same time, Josephine is also convinced that within the Dros Empire, in the golden capital of Vetalun, there must be intelligence workers from Bellemare, Vanes, and Xu Zu. The situation of inserting intelligence workers between countries is very special. normal.

As the monarch of a country, she must have independent thoughts and actions, as well as the ability to make decisions.

If all issues and conflicts are left to Ye Lin to reconcile, can she still be called a queen?

And even Ye Lin may not have the solution to all problems from the social collective!

Josephine believed that the other queens had the same idea. Friends should be friends, and the country should be country.

So there is also a strange situation in Yelin. They can often eat super-class flower rice bowls, and occasionally freely mix it with God's spokesperson, the dance of elves and dragons... but they still can't let it go. Two queens in the same room.

Even if the queen needs bed partners to share the physical pressure, they are all masters, apprentices or sisters like Nuoyu, Aska, Youyu and Meiya who have deep feelings for each other.

Queen Josephine accepted Ye Lin's navigation chart with a smile, had a cup of tea, and chatted with her son-in-law about some insignificant things.

Ye Lin wisely did not mention the Bantu territory in the north, as well as a series of relatively sensitive topics such as how Emperor Lyon would view things in the New World if he were in power.

In addition to the nautical chart of the Eternal Continent, Ye Lin also gave Queen Josephine a very excellent skin care product, which is a precious substance extracted from spiritual fruits and petals.

For attractive and mature women, beauty care will never go out of style.

But there is one exception, that is, Josephine is a queen, and ordinary things are not looked down upon.

Time flies when you chat with smart, interesting people.

At noon, Ye Lin was invited to accompany Queen Josephine to a Delos-style lunch. The dishes were rich and varied, and they were all made by famous palace chefs. If you are used to the sugar cane made by the eldest lady, you can't fault it. .

After the meal, it was Queen Josephine's customary lunch break. Ye Lin thanked the reception and respectfully left. It would have been inappropriate to stay any longer.

Queen Josephine touched the nautical chart with her fingers, her eyes complicated, and she did not fall asleep.

…………

"Celia?"

On his way out of the palace, Ye Lin suddenly stopped by a familiar figure in front of him. The first princess had a slender figure, her hair was tied up, and her face was beautiful. Her dress today was particularly eye-catching.

Abandoning the solemn and calm black dress of the past, she changed to a set of white jodhpurs paired with a ladylike slim white vest. As a result, her whole person's temperament became much brighter and more youthful, like a female knight who had just returned from the horse training field.

Celia slowed down a bit but didn't stop completely, giving Ye Lin time to take a few quick steps to catch up.

"Celia, why didn't I see you in the palace courtyard?" Ye Lin asked.

The eldest prince Fan En has basically lost the possibility of inheriting the throne because he was infected with the blood curse and launched a "father's kindness and son's filial piety". He is currently the city lord of a city on the border of the empire.

The euphemistic name is to cultivate and practice his ability to handle political affairs, but in fact he is already a marginal figure in the imperial power.

The third princess, Isabella, is talented and has excellent conditions, but she still seems to be acting badly...

The second princess, Nosadia, was gentle, kind and talented, but she once said that she had little talent and little knowledge and had no intention of competing for the throne.

Whether this was really the case or not, no one knew what she was thinking.

Therefore, the candidates for the future emperor of the Dros Empire are basically locked in the eldest princess Celia and the third princess Isabella. If the three princesses continue to show off, then the candidate for the future monarch... there is no doubt.

Of course, there is also an extremely slim possibility, which I only dare to discuss secretly in private. Queen Josephine is in good health and looks great. If she has another child, she still has time to raise her.

Therefore, Ye Lin thought that Celia entered the inner courtyard of the palace to report to Queen Josephine and handle political affairs, but he had been there for most of the day and did not see her shadow.

"I was having dinner with my mother, not in the main palace." Celia didn't look away, keeping a polite distance from Ye Lin to avoid gossip after being seen by others.

In the view of the nobles of Weitalun, Ye Lin was still the fiancé of his sister Isabella, and he did not have a deep friendship with the eldest princess Celia. At most, they were just acquaintances because of their sisterly relationship.

Of course, it is indeed "nodding to make glue."

"I see, the food in the palace is very good and sumptuous."

"The food is sumptuous..." Celia raised her eyebrows slightly. This word seemed to arouse her thoughts. She pursed her lips slightly and said lightly: "Empress Josephine, who was born in the Gray Desert, was originally a kind and thrifty person. Lady.”

Ye Lin heard the third princess mention some old things about her mother-in-law. In fact, Queen Josephine's life was not extravagant and wasteful, but she advocated frugality. Her jewelry and fine clothes were all due to her noble status.

If the queen of a country is naked and dressed in coarse linen, she will be considered to be too "showy" and disgraceful to the empire.

The Dros Empire is a country with a strong class atmosphere.

Celia's face looked a little desolate, and she sighed and said: "The reason why she has rich food and drinks at every meal is purely because she takes care of my mother and some other concubines."

Emperor Lyon was dragged into the underworld by countless resentful souls, but his original concubines were still alive and well. Lyon wanted to dominate and was not greedy for beauty, but he also had more than ten concubines, some of whom he liked, and some of whom had political needs.

Queen Josephine did not kill them and let them be buried together, but it was impossible for them to leave the palace and return to their hometown.

If some messy scandal breaks out, it will undoubtedly discredit and humiliate the royal family. Lyon's ending will be disastrous to everyone, but no matter what, he was once the emperor of the empire and had the face of Delos.

Ye Lin thought thoughtfully and understood, saying: "If Queen Josephine eats lightly and dresses simply, those people will not dare to exceed her standards. That's why Josephine seems to be luxurious, with delicious food, pearls and jade." Everyone enjoys the beauty."
