Chapter 177: Chapter 177: Offering Study Material for the Birth of the New King_1
This time, Lu Xiang did not want to be disrupted by anyone. He wanted to decipher the United Government and the world beyond it by following his own will.
Was the Rebel Army the instigator of war, or an alliance formed to resist the tyranny of the United Government?
This was a question that could only be answered after personally visiting the "outside world".
The most direct way to understand this, was to meet with Princess Lieyang.
In fact, when contacting Lieyang, Lu Xiang was a bit nervous.
After all, they were not really acquainted with one another. They had merely interacted briefly in Zone 17. After he returned to his home country, he took over his father’s role, becoming the true leader of the Twelfth Nation.
To Lieyang, the law enforcers of Zone 17 were probably insignificant.
Unexpectedly, she immediately replied and arranged to meet with them the next morning in their hotel room. She was even going to visit them!
This made Lu Xiang unusually anxious. In a way, it was as if the head of a country was paying them a private visit, a treatment not even the heads of large clans in the Core Region could enjoy.
He remembered some of his seniors who had carried out the duties of being a bodyguard for diplomats. They informed him that aside from meetings, private contacts between both sides were almost non-existent.
This arrangement didn’t seem to follow typical diplomatic procedures.
"Don’t be nervous."
Song Lan comforted Lu Xiang, who, even in the early hours of the morning, was sitting straight on a chair in the room. "This is not a diplomatic event, just think of it as a private meeting between friends."
Lu Xiang had clearly entered work mode.
"Alright."
This was not the first time Song Lan had reminded Lu Xiang. But each time after being reassured, she would continue to twist his words and sit in the most noticeable spot in the room, causing the atmosphere to feel tense.
Song Lan had no choice but to move a chair next to Lu Xiang and start his temporary job as a mental health counselor.
In such a situation, he ought to help her distract herself.
"Think about it; Princess Lieyang is not that scary. You once had her arrested for arson."
This time, his guidance seemed to backfire.
Lu Xiang was not only more nervous, but her eyes widened. "Do you think...she has been holding a grudge, and she’ll lock us up for revenge?"
The capital of the Twelfth Nation was Lieyang’s domain.
"Impossible! Although Princess Lieyang appears childish and unreliable, she is definitely not vengeful. If she were, she would not have invested in us before leaving."
"Knock, knock, knock-"
The sudden knocking sounds startled Song Lan. The voice from the outside made him join the ranks of the nervous. "Hello, is anyone there? Your childish and unreliable Lieyang is here to play."
In that moment, Song Lan realized he had made a huge mistake.
In order to guide Lu Xiang, he unthinkingly violated his own principle and spoke negatively about Princess Lieyang. Worse still, he was caught red-handed.
Indeed, talking behind people’s backs should be eliminated completely and entirely.
Song Lan deeply criticized himself in his heart, managed to squeeze out a smile, and opened the door. "We are delighted to welcome Queen Lieyang to our humble abode!"
Who was the one who just said not to be too tense?
You’re even more formal than a diplomatic etiquette!
Lu Xiang was speechless. She didn’t think the day would come when she would want to make sarcastic remarks.
Looking at Song Lan standing straight, she felt less tense.
Fortunately, Lieyang did not seem angry. She pretended to make a scary face at Song Lan, sat down on the sofa, and leisurely crossed her legs.
She came alone, with no bodyguards outside the door.
But Lu Xiang reasoned that in the present Twelfth Nation, she was probably the person least in need of bodyguard protection. If there were enemies that even Lieyang could not deal with, any additional bodyguards would simply be walking into the jaws of death.
"Thanks to you guys, I got half a day off!"
Lieyang’s eyes sparkled. "Why didn’t you contact me sooner? I could have picked you up personally."
As she began to speak, Song Lan understood at once.
No wonder Lieyang proposed to visit them at their place. For a child of her age, government work was too burdensome. Initially, she was in charge of military missions. A brave and good general may not necessarily make a good national leader.
The people’s call had propelled her into a leadership role. However, to truly lead the nation towards a brighter future, there was so much she needed to learn.
"We can’t let that happen. If word got out, it could damage your image."
As Song Lan spoke, he thought of Lyu Feng.
If Lieyang really had picked them up and this guy got a picture with the new queen of the Twelfth Nation, he would probably be so excited that he would turn the photo into a graffiti, putting it on both his truck and off-road vehicle.
"Besides, we are here this time to experience the difficulties and dangers of the border trade route. In the past few years, the Twelfth Nation and Zone 17 have been each other’s main trading partners."
"Tra- trade...?!"
These two words seemed to stir up horrific memories for Lieyang. She covered her head with her hands, her eyes wide open. As if under a spell, she began to mumble, "According to last year’s statistics, the trade volume between the Twelfth Nation and the United Government was 347.1 billion watts, making it the United Government’s largest trading partner. Trade revenue accounts for the majority of the economy..."
What on earth did you do to this child?!
She’s having a reaction against it!
"S-sorry."
Lieyang, who had regained her senses, shook her head vigorously. "I have done too much learning recently, with too much information entered into the operative system, it just surfaces without warning."
She looked traumatized. Ever since she returned to the capital city, she mysteriously took over her father’s position. Under the supervision of the ministers, she was cramming all kinds of knowledge day and night.
Although the built-in operative system drastically saved the amount of time spent on rote learning, understanding it was still a major challenge. In the past few days, her brain had been crammed with countless pieces of data and materials. Lieyang didn’t even know how to categorize all this information.
All she wanted was to go out and play and not study.
She missed the old days when she could do nothing all day with her subordinates in the capital city but eat, drink and be merry.
A voice deep within her kept calling her. When she received Lu Xiang’s message, she finally found an opportunity.
Family!
She remembered that the day before she left, Lu Xiang had told her that Zone 17 would always be her home.
And now, her family had come to rescue her from a dire situation!
