Online Game: I Am The God Of Wealth, What's Wrong With My Pet Having Hundreds Of Millions Of Po
#479 - Chapter 468 "Don't worry, we are upright and honest"
“Buzz!”
Before long, a white light flashed from the teleportation array connecting Wind Leaf City to the Imperial Capital, and two figures disappeared.
Imperial Capital.
“Greetings, Your Highness.”
“Greetings, Grand Duke Yehan.”
The guards responsible for guarding the passage respectfully saluted the two figures, a hint of surprise flashing in their eyes.
After all, Sophia had not been away from the Imperial Capital for long, and suddenly she rushed back quickly, and with the legendary Lord Yehan, it was hard not to let people's imagination run wild.
“What a talented man and beautiful woman, this temperament, no wonder it is rumored that the two adults are a match made in heaven, now it seems that it is well-deserved.”
“Indeed, with Princess Sophia's appearance and background, only Lord Yehan is the most suitable.”
After the two walked away, several guards gossiped, discussing in low voices.
The fact that Yehan was named Grand Duke was known throughout the entire Dragon Phoenix Empire, but the ones who understood the true value of it were the residents who were born and raised in the Imperial Capital.
Even with such great achievements, jumping so many ranks in such a short period of time, what exactly does it mean?
This broke the tradition and rules that had existed since the establishment of the empire.
Especially after the rebellion of a Grand Duke a few years ago, the awarding of Grand Duke titles became almost impossible.
Although it was not explicitly stated, everyone had a consensus.
First, unparalleled contributions or military achievements.
There is no doubt about this, a Grand Duke cannot be granted to someone who has made no contribution.
Second, possessing considerable prestige.
Similarly, as a Grand Duke, one naturally needs to be trusted by the whole country, and Yehan also meets this requirement.
As for the third point, it is not as absolute as the previous two.
For some people, this is very simple, for some people, it is impossible to achieve in a lifetime.
That is, one must be one of their own.
Who is one of their own?
That of course refers to members of the royal family.
You know, since ancient times, the title of Grand Duke has been very special, unlike other titles, which also have the concept of a nominal position.
The authority of each Grand Duke is terrifyingly high, and even under permitted circumstances, they can form a considerable army.
It can be said that in the fiefdom, the Grand Duke is the undisputed king.
With such immense power, the royal family, out of consideration for maintaining its own stability, almost never grants it to an outsider.
So, the matter of Yehan becoming a Grand Duke is quite intriguing.
The first two conditions are fine, collapsing the Boundary Battlefield, dispelling the Gray Mist to save Water Moon City, overwhelming a group of God-level experts to reach the top of the Reincarnation Rankings...
Picking any one of them is an unprecedented feat.
But this third condition...
Logically speaking, Yehan could never have royal blood.
If it were someone else, one could suspect whether they were a member of the royal family who had been lost, which is not uncommon.
But how could this happen to Yehan, a visitor from another world?
The only person he is related to is Princess Sophia.
Then, based on this, a reasonable explanation is:
There must be some close connection between these two!
Thinking about how Princess Sophia has been busy these days discussing Yehan's award, no one would believe that there is nothing fishy going on.
So, these days, a saying has been circulating in the Imperial Capital.
Yehan is very likely...
No, he will definitely be a future member of the royal family!
And the way will definitely be marriage!
Most people are happy to talk about it, after all, a hero matches a beautiful woman, a perfect match.
“These people really have rich imaginations.”
However, no matter how careful the guards were, with Jiang Han's current mental strength, these discussions easily reached his ears.
“The world is never short of discussions, just get used to it.”
Although Sophia didn't hear what the guards were discussing, she was smart enough to guess.
“Indeed.” Jiang Han nodded.
“So what do you think?” Sophia turned her head, a hint of imperceptible expectation flashing in her curious eyes.
Jiang Han smiled slightly, righteous and awe-inspiring: “We act upright and sit straight!”
Sophia: “……”
Sophia's smile gradually faded, although she had expected it, this way of answering still caught her off guard.
What does “act upright and sit straight” mean?
What am I expecting???
Such a straight man!
Seeing Sophia not speaking, Jiang Han was a little puzzled.
But after thinking about it, he was relieved.
After all, she is a woman, and she will be affected by these rumors to some extent.
So he thoughtfully comforted her: “You don't have to care, they are all groundless things, just clarify it when you have time.”
“Oh.”
Sophia nodded, then stopped talking, just burying her head and walking forward.
So tired, I really want to cry.
Jiang Han silently followed behind Sophia, thinking that these widely spread things really had a big impact on the latter, so it's better not to say anything.
Just explain it when you have some free time.
“By the way.”
After a moment of silence, Sophia suddenly stopped and looked back at Jiang Han, “These things are indeed insignificant, you don't have to bother to clarify them.”
“Okay.” Jiang Han was stunned, then nodded.
“That's right, don't let these things affect your original plan.” Sophia's red lips slightly curved, and she returned to her dignified and elegant appearance.
The two continued to move forward.
Soon, they arrived at a magnificent palace.
This is the absolute center of the entire Dragon Phoenix Empire, and every decision inside will affect the future direction of the entire empire.
Unlike other important buildings in the Imperial Capital, there are no guards outside the palace gate.
Because being able to reach here means that the outer defense line has been completely breached, and setting up three or two guards is meaningless.
Sophia reached out and gently pressed on the gate.
Buzz!
Instantly, the gate lit up with strange patterns, and a blue magic circle suddenly appeared, quickly rotating, and then the heavy gate slowly opened.
Light shone through the crack in the door into the palace, bringing some light to the originally dim environment.
In the shadows on both sides, an ancient conference table carved with dragon patterns emerged in the light, and sitting on both sides were elderly people with white hair and luxurious clothes.
And at the head of the conference table, at the end of the palace, was the ruler of the current Dragon Phoenix Empire.
Charles XXI.
He wears a gem-studded crown on his head, and holds a royal scepter, although a bit old, he is still energetic and full of pressure.
Charles XXI spoke, his voice spreading throughout the palace:
“Welcome, Grand Duke Yehan.”
