Richest Man: Divine-Grade Reconstruct System Chapter 1220 - 1121: Leng Yu’s Tears (Part 2)
Previously on Richest Man: Divine-Grade Reconstruct System...
In Xiao Zihan’s eyes, these young palace maids were no different from the nannies of later generations. Precisely because of this, Xiao Zihan’s attitude towards these palace maids was very kind, and it could be said that she treated them with equality.
This kindness made all the palace maids tearfully grateful, and they looked at the Empress with eyes full of closeness.
After all, an Empress like this was truly rare. They had all heard about the previous Empress.
She was definitely considered arrogant and domineering, treating servants with nothing but beating and scolding.
Due to this, when they were first selected to serve the Empress, they were somewhat anxious and afraid of encountering such a master.
But they never expected that this Empress was not only beautiful but also spoke pleasantly.
The most important point was that even towards these servants, she would show a kind smile.
Of course, these are all trivial matters that need not be described. Focusing on Xiao Zihan at this moment, she was organizing the computers and other items with the help of these young palace maids, soon filling the room with things not belonging to this era.
The large sandalwood dressing table no longer held rouge and powder, but a brand-new Nuclear Technology laptop.
The greatest advantage of this laptop was that it was made by the Nuclear Group, thus using the energy developed by them.
So, even though the laptop was an average size, its astonishingly long standby time could reach up to six months.
Moreover, it came with a portable power device, providing enough power for the laptop to last three years.
Because of this, there was absolutely no worry about the laptop’s power supply upon its arrival here.
It’s worth mentioning that there were no candles in this room, but instead, a high-powered electric light hung from the ceiling.
One end of this light was connected to the unique power source from Nuclear Technology, making it an unbeatable presence, enough to power a lamp for several years.
Just thinking about it was terrifying.
Moreover, with its existence, Lin Yi had fewer concerns to worry about.
It must be said that the research achievements of the Nuclear Group project indirectly accelerated everything here.
Not only that, Lin Yi discovered something—that even here, in this ancient society, the system could still be used, continuing to function with its decomposition and reconstruction capabilities.
This naturally provided great convenience and help for Lin Yi.
Many tasks could be completely accomplished using the system without the need to travel back and forth to the modern society.
Of course, because the storage capacity within System Space was vast, it had not yet required Lin Yi to use the decomposition and reconstruction system for anything, nor had such an opportunity arisen.
As Lin Yi wrote, he quickly finished drafting an imperial decree and sent it out immediately.
The content of this decree was to announce to the world that he was to marry the Empress.
However, as this decree was issued, Xiao Zihan didn’t notice the situation on this side.
Because at that moment, Xiao Zihan was fully immersed in her work.
She was working hard to assist Lin Yi, unaware of the content Lin Yi was writing.
As the decree was disseminated, it quickly spread across the entire Dayou Kingdom through newspapers.
Not just Dayou, but after annexing Yan Country, it received these newspapers as well.
It’s worth mentioning that when one person saw the decree, their entire body involuntarily trembled.
Yes, this person was none other than Leng Yu.
The commoners, upon seeing this decree, naturally ignored it as they believed it normal for the Emperor to marry the Empress.
The officials, however, were full of curiosity, trying to discern the identity and family background of the new Empress.
Leng Yu alone was petrified upon seeing the decree, subsequently experiencing a wave of heartbreak that swept through her entire body.
Never would Leng Yu have imagined that at this time, Lin Yi would issue such a decree, with contents she didn’t dare to believe.
Now, Leng Yu’s heart was consumed with one thought: "The Emperor is getting married, but the bride is not me."
As a result, she immediately became haggard.
Nonetheless, when faced with her responsibilities, she didn’t dare delay and maintained a facade of composure, though her smile was more pained than if she were crying.
The immense sense of loss left her feeling nearly suffocated.
Lin Yi had already anticipated this possibility when bringing Xiao Zihan over.
But he still had to proceed with this action.
His attitude towards Leng Yu had always been clear, never giving her any hope.
Leng Yu’s affection had always been one-sided.
However, Lin Yi knew that time could heal everything, and in the future, he would minimize his interactions with Leng Yu.
Entrusting an entire nation to Leng Yu’s governance was adequate.
Lin Yi believed that with time, Leng Yu would gradually extinguish her feelings for him.
Of course, these are distractions. Focusing back on the present, in Capital City...
With the issuance of Lin Yi’s decree, all the regional lords and officials sprang into action, investigating the true identity of the Empress.
They all held one thought: Which family’s daughter had caught the Emperor’s eye?
This family was destined to ascend rapidly!
They had to establish a connection before that happened.
The officials had initially assumed that the Empress’ position would undoubtedly belong to Leng Yu.
But now they realized they were mistaken.
There was a subtle change in their attitude towards Leng Yu as well.
One must admit, Xiao Zihan’s methods were indeed skillful; in less than a week, she had crafted numerous plans, meticulously organized, with each step leading to the next in a perfectly interlocking manner.
That day, Xiao Zihan placed a plan in front of Lin Yi.
"This is all I have thought of for now. Following these steps, I believe it will take less than three years to formally bring Dayou into the Industrial Revolution."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yi was taken aback. He hadn’t expected such swift progress, nor Xiao Zihan’s confidence.
He then reached out to take the proposal she handed over.
After a brief glance, he couldn’t help but gasp in surprise.
The content was incredibly comprehensive, covering several broad directions in an organized manner.
After a moment’s affirmation, Lin Yi confirmed the feasibility of the plan.
"Alright, let’s proceed according to your plan. Tomorrow, attend the morning court with me."
