In the bright room, Meili, with her staff in her arms and white hair hanging down her shoulders, was staring at Lin Yi fiercely with her ruby-like eyes.
She wanted to use her wisdom to convince this ignorant human boy in front of her!
Altria and Kai were looking forward to the wonderful debate between Meili and Lin Yi.
"As a king, you should be a role model for your people! Become a beacon in the hearts of your people! Lead the country to peace and prosperity! This is exactly what I think is the path of an ideal king!"
Meli took the lead in attacking. After stating her own ideas, she looked at Lin Yi: "You said that my thoughts have no connotation, but I want to hear what you have to say!"
"Heh."
Lin Yi chuckled and raised his eyes slightly.
He did not have any emotional fluctuations due to Meili’s provocation. Just like an adult looking at a child, he tolerated her childishness.
"Since you are still thinking about this problem, let me say a few words. Your theory is good and sounds like it makes sense. But the problem is……"
After a pause, Lin Yi threw the question back to Meili.
"How should the king guide his people? What policies should he use to guide his people? What should you do if his people are disobedient?"
"That means the king is not doing well enough! If she is perfect enough, why would her people be disobedient?"
With her hands folded across her chest, Meili showed a mysterious and confident smile on her face.
It made Lin Yi a little uncomfortable.
No?
Is this the political level of the great wizard?
It’s really funny.
I thought Meili came back aggressively and must have a good idea.
But I didn’t expect that she would say such vulgar words!
Lin Yi really wanted to ask a question.
——Master Meili, are you awake?
"That’s why I said your thoughts are meaningless."
He sighed silently, facing Meili’s obviously dissatisfied eyes.
Lin Yi waved at her and said without thinking: "I have no money, give me all your money."
"Huh?! Boy, are you looking for trouble? What does it have to do with me if you have no money! I won’t give you a penny!"
Facing Meili’s defensive miserly attitude, Lin Yi did not comment.
He just looked at Altria and repeated the words just now.
"Lily, I have no money, give me all your money." The girl did not hesitate, and immediately took out the purse and handed it to him.
At the same time, he explained a little embarrassedly: "It’s okay to give it to you, but these are all I have left. Is it enough for you, Zoe?"
"Too little, not enough. Lily, can you ask Meili to give me all her money?"
"This………………"
Altria hesitated for a moment, looking atTo Meili: "Teacher, can you lend the money to Zoe first? When I return to the king…ah, when I return home, I will double the money back to you…"
"Of course not! Why should I lend my money to this guy!"
Before the girl finished her words, Meili screamed like an old hen protecting her cubs.
I will never lend my money to anyone, but to this guy who laughs at me!
Wait!
The next second, she seemed to have thought of something and stopped talking.
When she looked at Lin Yi again, she found that the boy was weighing the purse in his hand and looking at herself with a playful look.
He didn’t say anything, but it seemed that he said everything.
Using a simple little experiment, he responded to Meili’s doubts directly.
–Your king has set an example, why are you unwilling to obey her orders, learn her noble character, and give all your money to me?
Realizing this, Meli’s face began to change.
Her arrogant temperament, which had always been calm and thought everything was under control, also began to waver.
To put it bluntly, she was just a low-profile version of Athena.
She thought she had walked the earth for thousands of years and had seen the joys and sorrows of human beings, so she naturally thought she had understood human nature.
Little did she know that in Lin Yi’s opinion, her theory was a mess!
There were loopholes everywhere!
It is no exaggeration to say that in China in the 21st century, any college student who has read Mao Zedong Thought on the street would be more politically wise than Meli!
Seeing Meli’s face change, Altria and Kai looked at each other and understood why Lin Yi had borrowed money just now.
The girl seemed to have grasped something vaguely.
But it seemed that she had grasped nothing.
She was like a traveler groping forward in the fog, and suddenly found a towering lighthouse in the distance.
She wanted to chase it eagerly, but she couldn’t catch the faint light.
There was a silence.
The boy asked: "How is it? Master Meili, do you still think your theory is correct until now?"
Ahhhh!
Why does such a guy exist!
Returning to her residence, Meili had a dark face and cursed Lin Yi in her heart.
Why only curse in her heart?
Because she couldn’t say it, and couldn’t refute it…………….
The reality is already in front of her. Lin Yi proved with facts that no matter how noble the character of a king is, people will not easily obey her orders.
Meli is an example.
Altolia has set an example and is even willing to double Meili’s losses, but isn’t she still unwilling to lend money to Lin Yi?
If Meili, who proposed the theory, is like this, what right does she have to ask others to do so?Others can do what she can’t do?
"Damn it! This is just my momentary oversight. Wait until I find a reason to refute it, and see how you can quibble!"
Reluctant to accept it, Mei Li attributed everything to "quibble", thinking that Lin Yi was just being clever.
She didn’t notice at all that Altria, who was supposed to be taking a night education class, had a trace of confusion on her face.
Today’s little experiment has dealt a serious blow to the beliefs she has always held.
Altria even began to doubt whether the so-called "Ideal King" exists?
If it does exist, shouldn’t Mei Li learn from herself?
Her behavior just shows that the "Ideal King" may be just a beautiful wish.
It can’t be realized at all!
This makes Altria, who has been taught to become the "Ideal King" since she was a child, feel confused and even hesitant.
She began to think about whether she has done something wrong.
Am I not suitable to be the king…
It was late at night.
Kai was snoring in another room, and the sound was so loud that the wall could not block it.
Meili, who was not a human, had no need to sleep. I don’t know whose dream she ran into.
Only Altria, who was tossing and turning in the room, was left.
She was still thinking about the debate between Lin Yi and Meili during the day, but she could not get the right answer.
The girl who had no intention of sleeping simply put on her clothes and went for a walk in the yard.
It happened that Altria found that the oil lamp in Lin Yi’s room was still on.
After a moment of hesitation, she went forward and knocked on the door.
"Zoe, are you asleep?"
"I’m Lily, I can’t sleep…Excuse me, can I bother you for a moment?"
Creaky——
The old wooden door was pushed open, and the boy’s eyes, black and white, as deep as the ocean, came into view.
These are eyes that you will never forget after seeing them once.
Even Altria, who has always been educated as a man, couldn’t help but speed up her heartbeat.
An unprecedented idea appeared in her mind.
——He is so beautiful.
Like the stars in the sky!
Altria, who realized what she was thinking, blushed immediately and blamed herself secretly.
She believed that the ideal king should not have too many personal ideas.
Nor should he have too many preferences.
If not, how can he be fair and just and convince people?
But………………
I am not the king yet, so it should be okay, right?
Like a good kid who did something bad for the first time, Altria was secretly delighted by the "loophole" she found.
She glanced at him quickly a few more times.Lin Yi’s extremely handsome face.
The latter was a little confused.
I don’t know what this knight lady is doing.
So, Lin Yi took the initiative to speak.
"It’s so late, do you have something to talk to me about, Lily?" (To read the exciting novel, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
"Ah? Oh! It’s okay, it’s okay………….."
After answering subconsciously, Altria, who came back to her senses, immediately waved her hand and changed her words: "No! There is something! I have something to ask Zoe for your opinion."
"Is that so."
Lin Yi turned his head and glanced at Ikaros, who was in a "dormant state" because he wanted to understand human emotions and actively learn about human life.
Then, he nodded and gently closed the door.
"Ikaros is asleep, let’s go a little further to talk."
——He is so gentle!
Altria was stunned, and couldn’t help comparing herself with Ikaros.
They were both women, but she had never been treated so gently by anyone………………
No!
Altria, how could you think so?
You are the king, how can you desire such a thing?
Do you still want to save the Kingdom of Camelot?
After repeatedly hypnotizing herself in her heart, Altria successfully suppressed all the distracting thoughts that popped up in her mind.
Adolescent girls are always like this. []
Fear of gain and loss, thinking too much.
Altria is no exception.
Following the boy, the two walked to the river.
Merry was autistic here for a long time during the day.
Thinking back now, Altria couldn’t help but chuckle.
When she came to her senses and wanted to explain why she laughed, she saw that the boy was looking at her with the same gentle eyes.
At this moment, Altria suddenly understood something.
——In Lin Yi’s eyes, the girl named Altria was no different from other girls of the same age.
She was not the savior who saved the Kingdom of Camelot.
She was not an ideal king.
She was not a red dragon.
She was just her, a young knight as pure and beautiful as a lily, kind to everyone, and willing to lend a helping hand to the weak.
That’s all.
Her fair face began to heat up slightly.
Altria looked away in panic, not daring to look at the boy again.
She knew that her heart was beating fast now, but she didn’t know why it was like this.
She didn’t know why she didn’t dare to look at Lin Yi again.
Without time to think, the panicked Altria instinctively concealed her embarrassment.
"It’s actually about the debate between you and Teacher Meili during the day, Zoe."
Take a deep breath,Altria asked in a low voice with some pain: "I want to ask, Zoe, do you think there is really an ideal king in this world?"
Zoe will definitely say that there is no such thing as an ideal king, right?
The girl thought so in her heart.
I just felt that my efforts over the past decade seemed to be useless.
The source is a wrong theory, how can I teach a true "ideal king"?
After all, it’s just my fantasy.
However.
The boy gave an unexpected answer.
He said.
——"Of course it exists."
"What?"
Altria suspected that she had heard it wrong.
"I said, of course it exists. Why do you think the ideal king does not exist, Lily?"
Facing the girl’s suspicious eyes, the boy looked at the starry sky and said with a smile: "If I were a farmer, I would think that the king who filled my stomach is the ideal king. If I were a businessman, I would think that the king who made me a lot of money is the ideal king. If I were a noble, I would think that the king who could give me a larger fiefdom is the ideal king."
Speaking of this, the boy suddenly turned his head.
The pair of eyes as bright as the stars in the sky looked at Altria with a gentle smile.
Asked: "Lily, if you were the king, whose ideal king would you want to be?"700
Become whose………………..
Ideal king?
The girl couldn’t answer for a while, and her brain crashed on the spot.
This was a question she had never heard of before.
In the past, whether it was Merry or Sir Hector, they only told her that "only by becoming an ideal king can Camelot be saved."
But she never thought about who she would become the ideal king.
Just like a puppet, she strictly followed the lessons given by Merry to continuously improve her abilities.
Practicing swordsmanship during the day, and taking classes in dreams at night to learn the principles of governing a country and being a king.
Altria only sleeps for less than two hours a day.
And she has lived this life for a full ten years.
Since she was four years old, she has been working towards the goal of "ideal king".
But now, such a person has appeared.
He asked, who do you want to be the ideal king?
"Can’t you be the ideal king of everyone?"
The girl asked with a little greed.
"Sure."
Lin Yi pointed to the distance and said, "Beyond the British Isles, there are many countries that own vast tracts of land, occupy fertile farmland, and enjoy countless wealth and splendor……………..As long as you, Lily, can conquer all those countries, you can become everyone’s ideal king."
"Zoe."
WenThe girl suddenly became serious.
Her pair of holy blue eyes stared at Lin Yi.
She looked very cute when she was serious.
She looked like an angry kitten, lovable.
The kind-hearted Altria shook her head. Her words were childish. If modern people heard them, they would immediately laugh at her for not understanding war.
But she still said it with her kindness and the most simple values.
"War is wrong. Many people will die. Whether they are people from other countries or the people of Camelot."
"I don’t want them to die, even if…"
"They are not my people!"
Under the starry sky.
The girl said so.
She is very stupid.
She is so stupid that she doesn’t know how to adapt and foolishly does things that others can’t understand.
She sticks to the so-called "ideals and morals".
Show your kindness to strangers without expecting anything in return.
But ah.
There is such a group of people who struggle in the mud and advance in blood.
In the East, the most beautiful country in the world was established.
It is not perfect, but it makes the wanderers abroad dream about it.
Lin Yi, who was born in that country, does not hate Altria’s "stupidity" and "stubbornness".
If the world is full of "smart people".
Then, human history is too monotonous.
Isn’t it?
