Chapter 125 Funeral

The news of Lin Xulian's assassination spread throughout the whole empire and all the citizens mourn for her. In her almost five years as the empress, the empire changed a lot. The palace became peaceful after the second prince and previous Empress Dowager Li was dethroned and imprisoned. Because of this, the emperor was able to focus on the needs of the people. Lin Xulian's hospital also helped a lot since she would treat both the nobles and normal citizens.

But if they would only consider the current wives of the emperor, the princess from the Zhixiang country is the most suitable one. And this is the least favorable outcome for them.
