93. Utopia and reality

In the lounge in the Bird Garden of Scarlet.

This used to be the embassy of the Kingdom of Scarlet, and Nancy lived in this building during her negotiations in Scarlet.

Today, the building's conference room has become a place for the Celestial Empire and the Shuen Zhelai Kingdom to discuss the direction of future cooperation.

Nancy, as the princess, did not attend this level of meeting, she stayed in the lounge and waited quietly for news of her father, and with her... Road City.

"Lu Cheng, you don't have to participate in this time... Diplomatic Conference? ”

Nancy said some of the wording in Chinese in her own words, which sounded very strange in Lucheng.

"I'm not a diplomat, so I can participate if I want to, but all I can do is observe."

Lu Cheng holds a knife and sharpens a fruit called the 'Red Mist Fruit', which is a fruit that is unique to this world.

The exterior is a bit like an apple, but the flesh inside is scarlet, and the taste is a little sweet and sour, and the texture is soft, okay... Lu Cheng felt that this thing tasted like a peach.

"Can't you make a decision?" Nancy seemed a little surprised to hear Lu Cheng's answer, because after living in the camp for so long, Lu Cheng's decision affected almost every aspect of the camp.

To Nancy, Lucheng seemed to be the supreme commander of the entire camp.

"It's not me, cooperating with other countries is not something that anyone in our country can decide, diplomats are just responsible for passing on the word, and it is a group of people who really discuss and make decisions."

Lu Cheng had already peeled a red mist fruit, cut it into small pieces and put it on a plate, and then pushed the plate in front of Nancy.

"Thank you." Nancy looked at the flesh on the plate and didn't eat it, but continued to look up at the man who was about to peel off a piece of fruit, "Lu Cheng, are you establishing a relationship with me like this also for diplomacy?" ”

“……”

Nancy's words made Lu Cheng's hand holding the knife a little unstable, but Lu Cheng still controlled his emotions and raised his eyes to look at the blonde girl with blue eyes sitting opposite him.

"Why do you think so?" Lu Cheng asked.

"It's just a feeling." Nancy knew she shouldn't ask this kind of question at such a diplomatic juncture: "You were very nice to me, you gave me a special course, and you gave me some gifts. ”

"If you really say that, Elena, Noi, and a groundhog are treated better than you, but get closer to you... A large part of the reason is indeed for diplomatic purposes as well. Lu Cheng did not deny Nancy's claim, and part of the reason why Nancy was able to learn so much in the camp was that she was the daughter of the four kings of the kingdom of Xiuen Zhelai.

"Are we friends, then?" Nancy asked a new question carefully.

"Count, why not? If it's not a friend, will I peel fruit for you? It's just that we're kind of the kind of people who can say hello when we meet friends on the street. Lu Cheng's words should be regarded as the truth.

"And what's next?" Nancy loved the wonderful metaphor of Lucheng.

"The next level is when you meet on the street and have to go to a meal together, and your world is probably pulling you to a tavern and having a drink together."

The level that Lu Cheng said already belongs to the category of best friends, and there are many friends in this category, Lu Cheng, on the earth, but this world is estimated that only Noi can do it.

Because Lu Cheng met the girl on the street of Scarre, she must have been lost, and Lu Cheng would take her straight home.

Elena is half a half, her way of thinking is a bit Schrödinger's tendency, and if she meets, she may come up with a phrase 'Let's go to dinner together!' ’

"That's right." Nancy muttered quietly, looking down at the fruit on the plate as if thinking about something.

"Are you asking this just to inquire about my relationships?"

Lu Cheng stopped the knife in his hand, lest Nancy say something shocking next.

"No... No! I'm just scared of my father—" Nancy said and didn't dare to continue, her fingertips running around the hair around her ears.

According to Lu Cheng's observations in the past few days, Nancy will subconsciously make this action when she enters deep thinking.

"I'm afraid that your father will marry you off with additional conditions for politics and governance, which is a politics and governance marriage?" Lu Cheng guessed from Nancy's flustered tone what she might be thinking.

"It's... Will this diplomacy also talk about such conditions? ”

Nancy seemed to be even more flustered when she was brought up, especially if Lu Cheng was not involved in the diplomatic negotiations.

"Of course not, there are many reasons why it won't, the most important thing is that our country has long been free of this bad habit, and secondly, this kind of political bargaining chip may be useful in a country like a monarchy, but it has no meaning for the Celestial Empire." Lu Cheng said.

"Monarchy."

When Nancy learns that she won't be sold to her own country, as some stories portray, her attention turns to the focus of cooperation between the two countries.

"The country ruled by the monarch, I remember that Mr. Lin mentioned this matter, our country is considered a monarchy, and it still retains the slave system." Nancy thought of this, and suddenly realized something: "Scalley is now abolishing slavery because of your agreement?" ”

"It has nothing to do with us, it's just that there are people among the people of Scalare who have awakened under the influence of our thoughts, and the same thing should happen in your country." Lu Cheng said with certainty.

"It's not just the golems that change lives, it's also the mind..."

Thinking of this, Nancy looked up at the door of the conference room in the distance, and by this time the door of the conference room had been pushed open, and Maurice III and a diplomat in a tunic walked out.

The outcome of the negotiations seemed to be satisfactory to both sides, and Maurice III shook hands with the diplomat again, and Lu Cheng received some documents from the diplomat.

Lu Cheng glanced at some of the contents of the documents, some of which already had the autograph of Maurice III, Maurice III had reached an agreement with the rabbits in some way, but the deeper cooperation needed to wait until the rabbits figured out the specific situation of the kingdom of Xiuen Zhelai before signing.

"That's right! Your Excellency Lu Cheng, I have one more thing I would like to ask you. Maurice III had wanted to walk out of the Bird Court with the diplomat, but suddenly remembered to turn around and ask about Lucheng.

"What's the matter?"

Lucheng guessed that it was the core of the leyline, and the diplomat was currently talking to Maurice III about some regulations on industrial and commercial cooperation.

"Does your country have the power to resurrect the dead?" Maurice III asked this one with anticipation... Let Lu Cheng not know how to answer the question for a while.

"Father!"

The moment Nancy heard Maurice III ask this question, she immediately wanted him to stop asking any more.

"Unfortunately, we can't do that." Lucheng gave Maurice III a truthful answer.

Nancy was looking at her father with a very worried look, but Maurice III was very indifferent, muttering something like 'pity' and leaving the Bird Court alone.

Lu Cheng looked at the back of the king with a sense of loss of soul.

"What are you still waiting here?"

Lu Cheng gently patted Nancy on the back, she staggered forward, but quickly understood what Lu Cheng meant, and she quickly caught up with her own father.

"Father." Nancy followed Maurice III in small steps.

"Your mother, after giving birth to you, contracted a severe chill." Maurice III said suddenly.

Nancy had never known the cause of her mother's death, and even when she asked her three brothers, they chose to avoid the question.

"It was winter like this as well." Maurice III walked out of the Bird Garden and looked at the snowflakes falling in the sky, "At that time, we had nothing to do with your mother's wind and cold, if now... Those people will surely heal her. ”

Nancy didn't know what to say, so she had to follow her father for a while.

"Nancy, I should apologize to you, your past thoughts have become reality." Maurice III turned to look at Lu Cheng, who had also walked out of the Bird Court, and at the diplomat.

In the course of the negotiations, Maurice III probably figured out what was meant by the benefits of replacing human production with industrial production, and the diplomat put forward various conditions that had existed only in Nancy's fantasy in the past.

"No... This is necessary. ”

Nancy's voice also sounded a little lost, she did have a lot of fantasies when she was studying in the Emansis Secret Order, and letting the golem replace human production was just one of her fantasies, although this fantasy has now come true, but what makes Nancy uncomfortable is that the resurrection of her mother is still... It's a pipe dream.
