Young Master, Don't Show Off - Chapter 369

[Chapter 369 Queen’s Plan]

Lin Xiu and Sophia shook hands gently, and he always felt that there was something behind her words.

This made him feel a little unsure.

The third princess of Dayu, what did she come to Daxia for no reason?

Could it be that she recognized him?

Lin Xiu really couldn’t be sure. Even though he was usually careful enough and would disguise himself most of the time, that time, his Yuanli suddenly became uncontrollable and all his abilities failed, including disguise. He was not sure whether Princess Sophia saw his face clearly.

After Otto handed the box to Lin Xiu, he said, “There are ten Yuan crystals in it. I don’t owe you anymore.”

Lin Xiu actually admired Otto very much. Although he was very concerned about his face, he was really honest. Sending Yuan crystals thousands of miles away was not something that ordinary people could do.

After paying off the debt, Otto felt relieved.

Although eight of the Yuan crystals were borrowed from his sister, he could pay back the money he owed to his sister slowly, but the money he owed to others must be paid off within the specified time. This is honesty.

He exhaled lightly, and said to Sophia, “Let’s go.”

Sophia said, “Wait a minute, Lin and I have something to say.”

Otto was stunned when he heard this.

Sophia looked at Lin Xiu and asked, “Can I talk to you for a moment?”

Lin Xiu glanced at Sophia. She not only spoke standard Daxia language, but also used precise words and even had some special usages. He took her into a palace and asked, “This is the first time Princess Sophia and I have met. What can we talk about?”

Sophia looked at him and said, “Don’t worry, I won’t reveal your identity or tell your secrets. I just want to see you. It turns out that in the distant Daxia, there are people like us…”

At this time, Lin Xiu certainly knew that his identity had been exposed.

Fortunately, the person who knew this secret was a fellow traveler.

Fellow countrymen may not be trustworthy, but comrades must be trustworthy.

Lin Xiu looked at Sophia and said, “Ideals know no national boundaries. Whether in Daxia, Dayou, Daying, Dalu, Fusang, Basha, or in big or small countries, there will be people pursuing freedom and equality…”

Sophia said, “But there are still too few such people. Even if they unite, they can’t change anything.”

Lin Xiu shook his head and said, “That’s because there is no absolute power. If Princess Sophia is a heavenly upper realm, the chief elder of the Senate, and the queen of Dayou, then even if you want to rescue all the slaves of Dayou and create a truly free and equal country, who will oppose you? Who can oppose you?”

Sophia was slightly stunned. She had never thought about this. Lin

Xiu looked at her and continued, “One person or one organization alone can’t change anything, but a country can change a lot of things…”

Sophia was thoughtful, and light gradually emerged in her amber pupils.

Lin Xiu’s few short words opened a window for her. For the first time, she realized that it could be like this?

She alone, with the help of the “Xinhuo” organization, could not really change Dayu, but if she were the chief elder and the queen of Dayu, everything would be different.

She only needed to issue a decree to abolish Dayu’s slavery system. It

also only needed a decree to change the aristocracy’s bad habit of hunting people.

Since she couldn’t persuade the Senate, she would take charge of the Senate.

The Yuan force in her body surged, and she held Lin Xiu’s hand tightly, saying, “Thank you, Lin…”

This was a very meaningful handshake, a collision and fusion of internationalist ideas. If it weren’t for Lingyin, Qin Wan, and Ning’er, who were peeking at her from the top of the wall not far away, Lin Xiu would even be willing to give Sophia a big hug.

After a long time, the two walked out of the palace.

Otto was puzzled. He didn’t know what Sister Sophia and Lin Xiu had to say, and they didn’t know each other before.

Sophia walked up to Otto and said, “You go back first, I’m going to stay here for a while.”

When these words came out, Otto was stunned, and Lin Xiu was also stunned.

Sophia looked at Lin Xiu and said, “I want to learn more about Daxia. I may disturb you for a while. Lin, you shouldn’t mind, right?”

She said so. Can Lin Xiu say he minds?

He could only say, “Of course not. There are many rooms here. One more Princess Sophia can live…”

Otto came with two people, but left alone.

He couldn’t leave Sophia and go back to Dayu alone, so he had to live in the embassy temporarily and wait for her to go back together.

After arranging a place for Sophia to live, Lin Xiu left her residence and came outside. He happened to meet the sight of the girls. Looking at the subtle expressions of Qin Wan and the others, Lin Xiu was speechless.

Unlike Minghe before, the friendship between him and Sophia transcended gender and nationality, and was as strong and simple as steel.

He once had such a friendship with A Ke.

Until he saw A Ke’s moon.

As princesses of the five dynasties, Sophia’s purpose of staying here was different from that of Natasha.

Natasha stayed with the other girls every day to find out the secrets of the Lin family. Sophia rarely stayed at the Lin family. She left the Lin mansion at dawn and came back very late.

She spent the whole day outside doing research. In addition to observing the lives of the people in the capital and the habits of the rich and powerful, she even visited villages outside the capital.

These days, you can often see a young woman with exotic looks squatting in the fields, asking the people of Daxia whether they have enough to eat, whether they are warm, whether they have firewood in winter, and whether they will be bullied by the rich and powerful…

If you don’t know, you might think she is an imperial envoy from the court to understand the people’s sentiments.

When it comes to these things, the people’s chatterboxes are opened and can never be closed again.

Over the past two years, Daxia has changed almost every once in a while. In the past, the people were almost terrified by the rich and powerful, and could only swallow their anger when they were oppressed. Later, because of the appearance of a person, everything changed…

From him parading the biggest playboy in the capital, to punishing corrupt officials and bullies in Jiangnan, to cleaning up the Zhenhai Army in the East China Sea, including the son of the Duke of the upper earth level, hundreds of heads fell to the ground, which completely shocked the rich and powerful, and also set off a vigorous rectification trend…

Today in Daxia, the bullies who oppressed the people have disappeared, and the rich and powerful have all acted low-key. All of this is thanks to the Lin family.

After half a month of visits to the Lin Mansion, Sophia’s fair skin has been tanned, but her eyes have become brighter.

These days, she has seen a lot and learned a lot.

Of course, the most important thing is that Lin Xiu taught her a lot. It is not feasible and unrealistic to change the entire Dayou in one fell swoop. She can start with a county and take the route of surrounding the capital from the county.

Of course, the most important thing is to practice hard.

Strength is the foundation of everything. When she has absolute strength, she also has absolute say.

On the way back to Dayu, Otto looked at Sophia beside him. In addition to being a little tanned in Daxia, he always felt that there were other changes in her.

At a certain moment, Sophia suddenly looked at Otto and asked, “Otto, how is my sister treating you?”

Otto thought for a moment and said, “Very good. It would be even better if I didn’t have to return the eight Yuan Crystals…”

Sophia smiled and said, “You are my biological brother. A few Yuan Crystals are nothing. As long as you listen to me in the future, you don’t have to return those Yuan Crystals to me…”

Otto looked at her smile and suddenly felt a bad premonition. After thinking for a moment, he said, “I think people should be honest. Although you are my sister, I should return the things I borrowed from you…”

Sophia said, “You mean you won’t listen to me?”

Otto said firmly, “I won’t sell my soul for a few Yuan Crystals…”

Sophia said lightly, “If Doug and Colin knew that you betrayed them in the last competition…”

Otto said righteously, “You are my dearest sister. Even without those Yuan Crystals, I am willing to listen to you…”
