152, Elizabeth's ambition
"You're Lin Ao, aren't you?"
Lin Ao was mentally prepared for the women's clothes to be recognized, but he never thought that he would be called out by the princess of HER. Where, where did she find out who she was?
"No, I, my name is Kim Sang-yu."
"You don't need to pretend in front of me, my cousin, Zhuge Daozi has already told me."
"Huh?"
Lin Ao thought that the Red Knight had never been Zhuge Daozi also participated in the assassination plan, so how did he know, and why did he tell Princess Elizabeth again?
Seeing Lin Ao blushing and pulling the hem of her skirt in front of her, Elizabeth sighed:
"It's not convenient here, come and talk to my room, I've prepared men's clothes, you don't have to cater to the strange fetish of the red knight. Of course, if you want to keep wearing it, I don't mind. β
"No, no, I don't have that fetish..."
β¦
"Zhenyue Palace" is so luxurious and beautiful that it makes people look tired, almost every corridor is the same, and Lin Ao feels that the people who live here seem to be able to remember only through the different decorations in the corridors. If these statues and paintings were removed, they would be confused.
"Here we are."
After walking through several similar corridors, the maid opened the door to Elizabeth's room, and although Lin Ao's eyes had adjusted to the luxury of the palace, the shock of Elizabeth's room still made Lin Ao's jaw drop. The whole room is covered in goose down, and the walls and tables are covered in unknown artwork.
"Can you sleep in this room?" asked Lin Ao uncontrollably.
Elizabeth seemed to misunderstand what Lin Ao meant, explaining: "The artworks here are all looted from the earth by the Imperial Army, and I have asked for them from my father to protect them. If the war ends, I will return them all to their rightful owners, so I sleep soundly. β
"You're after the war?" Lin Ao asked.
Elizabeth did not answer immediately, but asked, "Do you drink Ceylon black tea?" Earth-born. β
"No, thank you. You..."
"Is this dress okay?"
The maid still brought black tea and a set of deacon's clothes, Lin Ao nodded and said that he could wear it, and continued to ask, "What are you looking for me for?" You know I'm the opposite of you, right? β
"The opposite of what?" Elizabeth seemed to ask knowingly.
"I am the enemy of your country! Aren't you afraid that I will kidnap you and run away? Lin Ao deliberately frightened, he wanted to test Elizabeth.
But Elizabeth's expression did not fluctuate at all, she picked up the black tea and tasted it: "I suggest you think about what you said just now, if you can't touch me, I will be dismantled by my maid." I know you're my father's enemy, but you're not mine. β
"What do you mean?"
Elizabeth's gaze looked at a female painting in the room, which Lin Ao thought was very familiar.
"I don't agree with my father's war, although at first he was under the banner of liberating the human race in the universe, but now it has gone too far. The flames of war are burning innocent lives and destroying human civilization and art... I can't sit idly by. β
"Are you going to fight your father?"
Lin Ao was surprised that Elizabeth was very sincere, not like she was lying to herself. He looked at the girl in front of him again, and thought that Elizabeth, like Princess Mary, was a beautiful woman who chose to support the war of aggression because of her vested interests, and was an enemy of herself, but Elizabeth had compassion and forgiveness.
"What's wrong?"
"No, nothing." Lin Ao realized that it was rude for him to stare straight at the other party.
"You can't sit idly by, mean? Are you going to persuade your dad to stop the war? β
Elizabeth lowered her head and said sadly: "Can't do it, he can't stop." In the future, he will definitely be a sinner in history, but I can't let my sister follow in his footsteps, and I have to save the people of this country. β
"What do you want to do?"
"In a few months, all forces except the empire will secretly hold anti-imperial talks at the Potala Palace on the territory of the Chang'an Cooperation Organization, and after the meeting, a military alliance against the empire may be born."
"All forces... Including your allies? (Republic of New Gran Colombia)"
"That's right, my father doesn't know about it yet. If he knew, I would have lost my chance to end the war. β
"Opportunity?"
"As the successor of the Holy Roman Empire of the Universe, I will participate in this meeting and call on the people of the empire to restrain themselves from the precipice."
"Thisβ" Lin Ao did not expect the princess's plan to be so risky, and he reminded, "Do you really think that if you appeal to the people and soldiers of the Empire, you will stop fighting?" At most, I think it will lead to the division of your country, and it will not end the war. β
Elizabeth said: "It's better than my father pushing the whole country off the cliff, which is also a signal to the outside world that not all the people of the empire are invaders, my father is bound to lose, and after the war, the forces will definitely divide my country." But if I can stand against him, even if I build a new empire, I can protect my sister and as many people as possible from the victorious forces. β
"Yesβ" Lin Ao felt that he had heard too many exaggerated plans to this day, first the assassination of the Red Knight, and then Elizabeth's plan to divide his country.
"So what are you looking for me for?" Lin Ao asked.
"I've been following the Earth for a long time, and I've seen reports about the Osiris, and I admire you knowing that you've gone around supporting people in distress. In fact, it was my cousin who recommended you to me, and he is a respectable adversary, so I hope you can take me to the Osiris and let the Osiris take me to the Potala Palace for talks. β
βοΌοΌοΌ I'll take a look at it later... Zhuge Daozi, the captain of the Wuhou class recommended it to you? Guys who've fought us so many times? β
"That's right, he recommended it, and he supported my plan." Elizabeth.
"Butβ" Lin Ao asked, puzzled, "but the Osiris is full of people who hate HER!" Do you feel safe on it? β
Elizabeth got up and bowed slightly to Lin Ao: "That's why I asked you to be my bodyguard, first, to leave New Rome with me, and second, to keep me safe on the Osiris." β
"Yours is too easy, let's not talk about how to get out of New Rome. I don't even have a gun on me now, and I can't fight even more, how can I protect you? β
Elizabeth operated on her personal terminal and showed Lin Ao a VR projection picture, which was actually Unit 2.
"Unit 2..."
"I have a way to give you back your body, which is a reward for being your bodyguard. Of course, you can also choose to stay with the Red Knight and see if his assassination plan succeeds. β
"You know about it..."
"It's also my cousin who is speeding me, and to be honest, I don't object to the Red Knight's plan."
"But it's your father who he's going to assassinate..."
"Compared to the people of the Empire, my father's life is too light."
"Ha..."Lin Ao touched his neck and sighed: "My dad is right, the children of the emperor's family have ruthless characters..."
Elizabeth turned off the projection, raised her head and said with a queenly attitude: "I don't care what others will say Well, my ideals are noble." How about it, would you like to join me? If I succeed, this war will end sooner and cause more damage. And what did you join the war for, fame? Wealth? Or is it for peace? Answer me. β
"I'll join, as long as I don't wear women's clothes, I'll join."
Lin Ao suddenly felt that as long as he could stay by such a beautiful and extraordinary woman, it would be worth dying. As for those messy plans, let's take it one step at a time.
