Chapter 646: You Become the Queen
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Country F was different from other countries. The countries with royal families in the world were originally different. Most of them were retained as national symbols and did not have any real power. They only existed as mascots.
Therefore, their succession to the throne was very stable. It made no difference who became the king. The others could continue their current rich life. It made no difference if everyone had to attend official affairs. It could only be said that the king would be more tired.
However, the king of Country F was the true ruler of a country. Although there was a president politically, the army was firmly in the hands of the royal family.
Therefore, it also caused the classes of Country F to solidify. From top to bottom, there was still a difference in status in their minds. The people also respected the royal family.
This was something Sophie realized as an adult. She could not help but feel sad when she attended official functions alone and faced the humble people. She felt that this should not be the case.
Those people did not lower their heads for a moment. Instead, they felt that they were lowly from the bottom of their hearts and did not have any intention of advancing. They did not even let their children go to university. As long as they could recognize a few words, they would drop out of school and go home to work. Resources would always be in the hands of the upper-class society.
In this way, the rich would always be rich, and the poor would be poor for generations. The entire society would be like a pool of stagnant water.
But there was nothing Sophie could do to change them. These thoughts were so deeply ingrained in their minds that they could not be changed by one person.
Sophie had chosen to flee at the time, resolutely giving up her royal allowance to come to China so that she would never have to face such a thing again, but now she realized that she had fled for too long.
“How can they do this? If they ask other countries for help, they will be controlled by these countries. At that time, Country F will really be finished.” Sophie could not accept it.
If they lost their national autonomy, this country would definitely fall into deep trouble. As members of the royal family who had enjoyed the support of the people, they should do their best to protect this country.
Jiang An poured her a glass of water and didn’t say anything. Zou Bai said, “Because they want power. As for what the people will lose because of this, they don’t care.”
Sophie couldn’t accept it. “Grandfather said that the king has to take on the responsibility of a country. The power in his hands can’t be used at will. The entire life of the people has to be the most important. If the people of a country can’t survive, the country won’t be far from extinction. They’ve forgotten what grandfather said.”
“Since Mom wants the throne, she shouldn’t do this. Even if she really gets the throne, what kind of queen will she be? She’s just a puppet of another country. Is the title of a queen so important?”
No one present could answer this question. No one could completely understand a person’s thoughts, let alone this person who they were very unfamiliar with.
Sophie didn’t have time to grieve for her grandfather. She was focused on the people, wanting them to live through this period in peace.
Jiang An looked at her worried face and fell into deep thought. After a while, she raised her head and looked at Zou Bai. His gaze was firm and he exuded an aura that could not be rejected.
Zou Bai understood something and shook his head, “I really can’t help you with this. The Zou family can’t interfere.”
Ignoring what he said, Jiang An walked up to Sophie and said, “Sophie, if that’s what you think, why don’t you be the queen?”
Sophie’s eyes widened in disbelief. “I’ll be queen?” she stammered.
“That’s right.” Jiang An’s tone was firm. “Only if you become the queen can you protect this country. Only then will the people have a good life.”
“I can’t. I’m not educated in this at all.” Sophie shook her head.
Jiang An held her hand. “If you haven’t learned it, then start learning now. Those tricks aren’t important. The most important thing is to think for the people.”
Sophie still shook her head and sighed. “An’an, you don’t know, but I’ve always felt that the royal family shouldn’t exist in this era. If I were the queen, I’m afraid I would dissolve the royal family immediately and the country would be in a mess.”
“If you want to do this, you have to become a queen first,” Jiang An said. “Of course, Country F can’t dissolve the royal family instantly. The people can’t adapt to such a life, and society will become unstable, but as long as you take it slow, everything will succeed..”
