Chapter 478: Apology

Regardless, Lomin thinks it's best to talk openly and honestly to Charlotte.

At the same time, it was also through her mouth that she indirectly passed on her thoughts to the princess Victoria.

If she was only asked to help carry a letter to the princess, she would definitely be suspicious of what it said, whether Luo Ming told the truth or falsehood.

But if Charlotte's best friend is allowed to relay it, even if it is the same information, it will make the princess have a different opinion.

Just as it is difficult to gain trust for a criminal suspect to defend himself, it is different if there is a trusted person who vouches for him. To the princess, Charlotte was that person.

In other words - this is how to make the princess "believe in the message she wants to convey to her".

There is basically no deception in it, almost all of it is true, at most there is a little concealment and wordplay, but if the princess lacks trust, even this truth will be blind, and she can only see the illusion she wants to see.

To be honest, Luo Ming even has to think about this, and it's really hard enough for him.

Time flies, it has entered September, the harvest of the fields has been completed, and even the sale of surplus grain has come to an end - Luo Ming, in the spirit of being prepared, directly purchased all the surplus grain in Charlotte's territory.

Although this made him pay a lot of money, he can still support it. Not to mention anything else, just by his actions and achievements in the past year or so, many people are willing to lend him money, and the businesses he does are gradually thriving.

Later, he would appreciate his purchase of grain, but that was for another time......

In about three days, Charlotte was about to leave Miana and embark on her journey to the royal capital of Brandon.

Luo Ming set the farewell banquet for todayβ€”after that, she had to leave time to pack up and hand over Miyana's affairs to him.

It was not a very large banquet, and apart from the acquaintances of the two, only a few nearby nobles were invited here.

After most of the banquet, Lockin took Charlotte to a conversation room with a cloth on the wall.

Physical soundproofing is one aspect, but in addition to this, there are also psychological considerations.

In such an atmosphere of "isolation", it is very suitable to confess some "truths" and "secrets", which is completely different from the small talk at the dinner table, and the listener will subconsciously become serious, remember the other party's words more firmly, and will also subconsciously take these words seriously.

"I wondered, I was a little scared of you some time ago...... I'm really sorry. Luo Ming scratched his head with a wry smile.

Hearing such words, Charlotte's eyes widened and her face was full of doubt.

"Scare me?" she was a little confused when she heard this.

β€œ...... Well, it's something like this, uh......"

Luo Ming pretended to be a little unorganized, hesitated a little, and then continued: "You see, I have expanded my territory so much in more than a year, some people say that I colluded with monsters, and some people say that I will not save other nobles from death, and I will 'recover' the lost territory after their territory is occupied by monsters......

I think you were a little rusty with me in the first few days after you came back, maybe I thought too much, but I think you must have been scared by those rumors. ”

Luo Ming patted her on the shoulder: "I don't blame you, anyone who hears those rumors, combined with the actual situation, may have such associations...... I'm sorry that I didn't explain it to you properly and scared you. ”
