C129 It's Better to Keep Silent than to Say Anything

"If the archduke agrees to give you the command of these two divisions, how will you use them?" Lindman sighed again. To be honest, if he did not think that the Lower Race forming an army was an irresistible trend, he would definitely not recommend Lee Xiang. But now he suddenly felt that this wasn't necessarily a bad thing. Of course, the prerequisite was that Lee Xiang had to take out something.

Lee Xiang let out a long sigh of relief. No matter what, Lindman's tone seemed to have loosened a little. This was a good start.

"This old man's question is a little interesting. . . It's not how I should use them. Rather, it's how to make them serve Silo Province. This is the most important thing!" Lee Xiang shook his head. "Just like the imminent riot. I think they will be of great use. . . "

"What will you do if I hand this matter over to you now?" Lindman was slightly moved and asked.

"The problem is that you haven't handed it over to me yet?" Lee Xiang smiled and replied with a question. "And as far as I know, my grandfather never planned to give it to me. "

"I mean if. . . " Lindman repeated.

"Sir, you seem to have forgotten one thing. If I did not receive an appointment, I would not have given you an evaluation. I'm afraid my grandfather and his aides will have a lot of speculation regarding this. . . Just like some of my previous suggestions, it also attracted some criticism. Please do not deny this point, because I truly felt this change. Thus, I understand the principle of saying a word rather than a word!"

Lindman was slightly stunned. To be honest, there had always been a specific plan for the rebellion between Duke Ronton and the empire. Especially after Shaun's arrival, this matter had basically been put on the agenda. He had even come up with a thorough plan, but he hadn't made up his mind yet. Whether it was Ronton or the empire, they were both hesitating whether they should do it or not. They still needed time to evaluate the risk of doing so. In other words, they needed to make sure that the outcome of doing so would be greater than losing.

At this moment, it was obvious that Lee Xiang already had a good solution in his heart, but the problem was that he refused to say it out loud. However, he couldn't be picky about this reason, because it was indeed because of some of his suggestions. This caused some people, including Ronton, to have doubts about him. Lee Xiang's frank words also shocked him.

"What do you think of Archbishop Lyman, my lord?" Lindman changed the topic.

"Although I am not a believer of the goddess, all the bishops in the church are the same to me. I do not have a good impression of them. To be honest, archbishop Lyman treats me quite well. " Lee Xiang smiled and expressed his opinion without batting an eyelid.

"Your grandfather does not like this person. Do you want to know the reason?" Lindman did not care about Lee Xiang's expression.

"Oh, why?"

"Because the archduke always thinks that this person is too scheming, too utilitarian, and is against the goddess' purpose! If he was just a believer of the Goddess, it would be fine, but the key was that he was the archbishop of the Church. It's precisely because of his identity that he shouldn't reveal too much of his desire for profit. "

"Whether it's for profit or personal gain, it's actually all for his own benefit. This point can't be denied!" Lee Xiang smiled faintly and said noncommittally.

"So. . . " Lindman waved his hand. "So if you want the trust of the archduke, it is best to stay away from him. This person is not suitable for you! "

Lee Xiang was slightly moved. From Lindman's tone, it could be seen that. . . In fact, Ronton had become vigilant when he and Lyman were too close to each other. It was just that he had never expressed it. Of course, the most important thing was that Lindman seemed to show some signs of loosening up. This proved that Lindman seemed to have agreed to recommend him as the commander of the Lower Race army in front of Ronton. This was definitely the best news he had heard today.

"Why did the old man suddenly change his mind?" Lee Xiang asked in a flat tone. Based on what he knew, the reason why he was being idle at the moment seemed to have something to do with him.

Lindman did not deny it and shrugged his shoulders. He looked at Lee Xiang and said seriously, "To be honest, I am still wary of you until now, but just like what Prince Shaun said, This may not be a bad thing for Silo Province and the empire, so I have decided to help you in the end. However, I can't guarantee it. Whether it will succeed or not isn't up to me to decide. The true owner of this place is always an archduke. . . Lindman stood up and slowly walked to Lee Xiang's side. He took a careful look. . . . "Alright. I'm a little tired today. Also, I need to tell you very seriously. Sophie is my favorite student, and her grandfather was also my best friend when I was alive. So, I don't want you to just use her a little. If you really have feelings for her, it would be best not to let her be perfunctory to Smith. This way, whether it was to Smith or Sophie, it would be very unfair. Moreover, many of your actions are also very repulsive. Although you did it very covertly, it did not mean that you could hide from people with ulterior motives. Do you understand what I mean?"

After a slight sigh, Linde shook his head. He ignored Lee Xiang's surprised look and walked out of the hall without looking at him.

Obviously, this Lindman knew about the relationship between Lee Xiang and Sophie. Maybe he knew something else? What made Lee Xiang the most curious was why he had clearly guessed that his series of events, including the hypocritical relationship with the Church, had a purpose. Why did he still help him? Was it only because of the relationship between Shaun and Sophie? This reason was rather far-fetched and could not convince him. Thinking about what he said about being good friends with Sophie's grandfather, Lee Xiang muttered in his heart. It seemed that this riddle needed Sophie to give him an explanation.

Thinking of this, Lee Xiang stood up and walked outside. He needed a good silence now. He needed to carefully sort out what he had said earlier and find a way to remedy it in time. It had to be known that even if there was a problem at the top at this time, there might still be an irreparable problem.
