Chapter 1693: Venue
Translator: Lonelytree
Ever since the two old men ordered them not to meet, the two of them had to rely on secret dates. As for many marriage matters, the two young people did not know much about them. Naturally, there were many questions that they did not have time to ask or discuss.
Seeing Lin Yuelan’s hesitant expression, Lin Deshan was instantly displeased.
His unhappy expression changed as he asked,” Girl, you haven’t discussed this yet, have you?”
It had been some time since the date of her proposal was set, but they had not even discussed the most basic questions.
At the thought of this, Lin Deshan’s face was filled with anger. He said to Lin Yuelan,” Call him over!”
Lin Yuelan had no choice but to reply weakly when she saw her angry grandfather,” Yes, grandfather!”
In the palace, Yuwen Longyan burst into laughter after receiving Lin Yuelan’s letter.
Eunuch Zhang asked with a smile,” Your Majesty, why are you so happy?
Yuwen Longyan smiled and said,” The girl wrote that since Minister Jiang is the bride, she must pay the betrothal gift. “Eunuch Zhang, guess what kind of betrothal gift this girl gave?”
Eunuch Zhang thought for a moment and shook his head. He smiled and said,” Princess Gu is smart and mischievous. If she wants to give a betrothal gift, it will definitely be unexpected and extraordinary.”
Eunuch Zhang wanted to guess that since Lin Yuelan had mentioned the betrothal gift, it must have been extraordinary and expensive. Perhaps it was those priceless treasures, or perhaps it was those commercial shops that earned a lot of money every day. However, there was one thing that he was sure of. It would definitely shock people.
He even had some guesses. Could it be Lin’s Hospital or one of the inns?
However, he was smart enough not to voice out his guesses.
When Yuwen Longyan heard this, he laughed and nodded.” Eunuch Zhang, it seems like you understand that girl.”
At this point, he looked at the letter inside again. His eyes narrowed into a line, and he said with a very happy expression,” This girl’s betrothal gift is indeed unexpected and extraordinary.”
Eunuch Zhang smiled and asked,” Your Majesty, what is the princess’ betrothal gift?”
Yuwen Longyan said,” It’s the zoo!”
“Ah?” Eunuch Zhang was shocked.” A zoo?”
However, he immediately came to his senses and asked in confusion,” Your
Majesty, this old servant does not know what a zoo is.”
Then, he thought for a moment and said,” Your Majesty, could it be that the zoo means an enclosure of animals? If that’s the case, then…” That was too terrifying.
If it were just those cats and dogs, it would be fine. However, with the princess’s personality and ability, there would not be just any cats and dogs in the enclosure.
Moreover, he had heard that the princess of Guguo had an affinity with animals. No matter how ferocious the wild animals were, they would obediently submit in front of the princess.
As far as he knew, there was a very ferocious animal by the side of the princess of Guguo. It was the king of all beasts in the forest, the big tiger.
Princess even gave it a cute name, Little White.
If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, no one would believe that such a ferocious animal could be a weak and cute animal.
Hearing Eunuch Zhangs doubts, Yuwen Longyan put down the letter and said,” Speaking of the zoo, I remember the girl mentioning it to me.”
“Ah?” Eunuch Zhang was slightly surprised.
He didn’t know about this.
However, as an old servant by the Emperor’s side, there were many things that he did not know.
“l heard from the girl that this zoo is indeed like an enclosure with a garden. But it’s not what you think it is.” Yuwen Longyan glanced at him and said,” It’s not a normal garden. Instead, one keeps these animals in the garden like those flowers and plants, and it becomes a zoo.”
When Eunuch Zhang heard this, he immediately understood the meaning behind it.
However, after understanding it, he was even more shocked.
He asked nervously,” So, Your Majesty, is the princess going to keep those fierce animals together and turn the place into a zoo?” That was terrifying.
Yuwen Longyan said,” Indeed!”
” But Your Majesty,” Eunuch Zhang swallowed nervously and said,” When the princess said to give the zoo to the general as a betrothal gift, what did she mean?”
Yuwen Longyan looked at Eunuch Zhangs nervous expression and smiled.” Look at you. What are you afraid of? This zoo will be open to the whole world..
