"The three people's laughter was interrupted, and they all turned to look at the person talking behind them." He was in his twenties, very delicate-looking, and well-dressed.

"I wonder what this lady wants to see me about?"

"Lin, this is Princess Lydia!" Anna and the others were helpless about Lin Xingchen's failure to recognize people.

"Please don't be offended. I didn't know you were a princess." She said while touching her chest.

"You are too polite, Lord Xingchen. I have something to discuss with you. I wonder if we can talk alone." Lydia didn't care about it.

"They are my wives. You don't need to avoid them if you have something to say."

"Lin, Her Highness the Princess is looking for you for something important. You should talk to her. What if it's really a big deal?"

"Your Highness the Princess followed me all the way from the Chamber of Commerce to here. There must be something very important!" Lin Xingchen has always known that someone is following him. Alert magic has always been his passive skill.

"Mr. Xingchen, I have something I want to discuss with you."

"Just call me Lin. What do you want to discuss or is there anything worth discussing?" After setting up a soundproof magic barrier, the two sat on chairs by the roadside and started talking.

Watching Lydia checking around, Lin Xingchen smiled and added, "Don't worry, I cast a magic barrier, and outsiders can't hear our conversation."

"Mr. Lin is truly a genius. I never thought that magic could be used in this way. I came to you to discuss a business deal with you."

"You've heard it in the Chamber of Commerce. I've handed over the business to my wife and my subordinates. I'm basically not involved."

"You have to make the decision on this business. I wonder if Mr. Lin wants to hear it."

"It's so mysterious. I'll give you a favor and tell you about it." Seeing the person on the other side showing off like this, Lin Xingchen was very tactful.

"I wonder if you're interested in investing in a queen!"

"Tsk tsk tsk..." After looking Lydia up and down, Lin Xingchen admired her sincerely.

"I am impressed by your bold suggestion. Tell me about it."

"My father, Al Farak II, only has my sister and I as the official heirs. As for the illegitimate child, he is not eligible to inherit the throne. The current situation is that my sister and I both want the throne, but she is older than me and has the advantage, so I would like to ask for your help."

"Tell me your bet! Maple Leaf Territory never gets involved in issues concerning the throne. We are only loyal to the throne. Since you've come to me, you naturally have preparations. Just tell me directly!" Touching his nose, Lin Xingchen was very patient and prepared to listen to her plan.

“My sister is not fit for the throne. She is too dependent on the Leicester and Hill families. Once she ascends the throne, it will not be of any benefit to your Maple Leaf Territory.

Secondly, I know some news. That is, in order to win the support of those great nobles, my sister made a promise to all the nobles who supported her to become queen.

As soon as she ascends the throne of queen, she will dismantle your Maple Leaf Territory to repay those who helped her.

My sister not only thinks so but also does so. On the surface, she is a couple with Ivan, the second son of the Hill family, but privately she is having an affair with Lucas from the Lester family.

She plans to use the power of these two dukes to force the George and Griffin families. If they also give in, then these four families will be the ones to divide your Maple Leaf Territory.

There were frequent bandits in your territory in the past few years. In fact, it was my sister who used the Hill family to do this. As for why she did this, you should understand it yourself. My father's control over the Lester family is not as great as he imagined. "

"To be frank, if my sister hadn't wanted to avoid any problems in the future, her current power would be enough to overthrow my father and establish herself as queen."

"Thank you Princess Lydia for the information, but you don't think that I will cooperate with you after hearing what you said!" Regardless of whether some things are true or false, they still make Lin Xingchen very concerned.

"Of course not, the reason I said this is actually to tell you that you are being targeted.

And I want to cooperate with you. These are just some tricks to win your trust. If you are willing to help me become the queen, I can give you the rights of regent prime minister.

We can also allocate land near your territory to you, with an area as large as your Maple Leaf Territory.

And as long as you don't overthrow my rule, I can continue to support your reforms. I know you are a wise man. A mere Maple Leaf Territory has trapped your body. With the entire Kulma Kingdom as your stage, I think it should be enough for you to perform!"

"The conditions are generous, but I'm afraid that the first thing you'll do after you ascend the throne is to regret it!" To be honest, Lin Xingchen was a little tempted. With the entire kingdom as his backing, it was enough for him to accomplish many things.

"I know that you won't trust me with this statement, but what if I add a soul blood oath? I can swear with my royal blood and family name that as long as your Star Clan doesn't take any action to overthrow the kingdom, we will always live in peace."

"Is it worth paying such a huge price?" Even Lin Xingchen was shocked by her cruelty.

“Of course it’s worth it. My sister only cares about the immediate benefits and cannot see your value. Even the other four dukes combined are not as important as you.

As long as we give you enough support, our Kurma Kingdom will be able to move to a higher level, and even becoming an empire will not be impossible.

The Kurma Kingdom has been established for more than 800 years, and it has always been a kingdom of average national strength. As for the imperial dream that the ancestors wanted, it is even more out of reach.

But I see hope in you. Back then, the ancestors of the Stephens family and the ancestors of the five dukes founded the Kingdom of Kurma together. All we paid was a piece of territory, but what we gained was a country.

Now I don't mind using the same method, paying a piece of territory and gaining an empire. I think even the previous kings would agree with my decision for such a deal. "Speaking of this, the princess became a little crazy.

"Is there such a big difference between the queen and the empress for you?"

"I really was right, Mr. Lin. You must have thought about how to govern the country! The difference between a queen and an empress is that no matter how well I do, I am only the same as my predecessors. But if I become an empress, I will surpass my predecessors. I can accept the worship of everyone except you in the name of the empress."

"You are the woman with the biggest heart and the biggest ambition that I have ever met. You are also the one who is most obsessed with power. If you can really fulfill your promise, I don't mind going crazy with you."

"You agree to my suggestion?"

"There is no reason for me to miss such a good opportunity, and there is nothing to lose for me."

"As you wish." As she said this, she took out a finger-sized knife from her waist and stabbed the palm of her right hand.

"I swear on my soul and my inherited blood that I will reach an agreement with Lin of the Star Clan. As long as he helps me become the queen, I will fulfill my promise to him. I will give him a plain territory of the same size as the Maple Leaf Territory, and the two families will live in peace for generations. If he breaks his promise, the bloodline of the Stephens family will be cut off."

This was the second time he saw such a scene. Looking at the other half of the blood oath ball condensed with blood and magic power in Lydia's hand, Lin Xingchen picked it up and crushed it.

A blood-red mark floated directly to his forehead and drilled into it. Princess Lydia on the opposite side also completed the same action.

"Lin, I look forward to your follow-up. If you need anything from me, please let me know. Nothing is a problem." The phrase "any problem" was particularly important.

"Yes, if I need your help I will definitely ask, but some things should be forgotten. My three wives are giving me a headache."

Seeing this young man return to his cautious demeanor, Lin Xingchen felt a little impressed. After all, not everyone could dress up as a poor little thing after being extremely crazy.

"What are you looking at? They've all gone far away." Avril felt a little jealous.

"You are enough for me. It will be uncomfortable if there are more. If you have anything to say, go back and tell me!"

After dinner, Lin Xingchen was fiddling with his things in the study. His three wives also arrived one after another. Looking at their posture, it looked like a three-judge trial.

"I have nothing to do with her. I just did a business with her."

"I will help her become queen, and she will give us a territory as large as Maple Leaf Territory as a gift, and will also let me become prime minister to complete the things I cannot do now."

"I remember that our family never got involved in the change of the throne!" Evelyn was a little puzzled.

"Both not participating and participating have their advantages. I think participating this time is a benefit for us. If I can do it in the end, then the Kingdom of Kurma will have the final say."

"Lin, don't take things too slowly. We have plenty of time." Anna also consoled softly.

"Don't worry, I know what to do. Actually, you are the main people in this matter. Didn't I tell you that I plan to go on a long journey in half a year? I will leave a plan, and you can just follow the plan when the time comes."

"What plan do you have to make a princess who is not favored by anyone become a queen?" Although Avril was used to Lin Xingchen's methods, she still did not believe it this time.

"Do you remember what I told you when I came back? It was about the scam. As long as Princess Elsa uses this scam, Lydia will have a chance to become queen."

"You also said it was a scam. No one could see through it for a while, but over time I'm afraid someone will see through it. Wouldn't that mean it's a failure?"

"It's bound to fail. If Aisha has the ability to keep it running, you must make her have problems. It's like when we play snowballs. If no one stops the snowball from rolling in the early stages, it will be a huge event once it explodes."
