After hesitating for a long time, Noah nodded to Elena.
"It's alright, I'll just follow your Majesty."
After that, she walked to Luo'er, pinched her little face and warned: "Luo'er, you must take good care of Letitia, otherwise Fritz will be unhappy."
"Do not worry!"
Lol patted her chest and promised confidently, and after hearing Noah mention Lin Shangzhou, Letitia realized that her hesitation just now was not only because she was worried about herself, but also because she was worried that she would be alone with Lin Shangzhou during this time.
Despite this, Noah's choice was to follow Alexandrine to Flanders Wallonia instead of staying in the Palace of Souci to prevent herself from running away. Thinking of this, Letitia felt a little complicated.
Seeing that Noah agreed to go with them, Elena said to Luo Er, "Then Luo Er, you stay here to take care of Letitia. I will take Noah to find His Majesty."
"it is good--"
Lol answered Elena with a long tail tone, and Noa pinched her little face again and followed Elena out of the room.
After she left, Lol chatted incessantly with Letitia about this and that to entertain her, and Letitia gradually got used to having such a little girl who chirped like a bird around her.
Naturally, Lin Yangyu also told Lin Shangzhou that Alexandrine was going out. He wanted to go to Wuyou Palace to say goodbye to Alexandrine. After all, this was her first time going away from home. However, he was busy with work that day and finished it very late.
After get off work, Lin Shangzhou looked at the time and went straight home. It was not until the morning of the 4th that he went to the Worshipful Palace to meet Alexandrine. They didn't say much to each other. After a few simple greetings, Alexandrine, Cecilia and two maids got on the car to the train station.
Lin Shangzhou stood on the steps in front of the palace, watching the car going away, thinking back to the look Noah had given him just now. That look seemed like a warning as well as a complaint. Thinking of his own thorny emotional issues, he sighed, then turned around and walked into Wuyou Palace with the lunch box in his hand.
He went straight to the room where Letitia was, knocked on the door, and after hearing Lol's "Come in" from inside, Lin Shangzhou pushed the door open and walked in.
In the room, Luo Er was sitting on the bed, chatting and laughing with Letitia. When Luo Er saw Lin Shangzhou coming in, she walked towards him enthusiastically and took the lunch box from his hand.
Lin Shangzhou walked to the bedside, moved a stool and sat on it. He looked at Letitia who was sitting on the bed leaning against the pillow and asked with concern: "Letitia, are you feeling better? You shouldn't have a fever anymore, right?"
Letitia shook her head slightly and replied, "The fever is gone. I'll be fine after a few days of rest."
Hearing that Letitia's nasal tone was not as strong as the previous two days, Lin Shangzhou's worries disappeared a lot.
"It's okay."
At this time, Luo Er took out the bowl of health porridge cooked by Lin Yangyu from the lunch box. After putting the bowl and spoon on the bedside table, she hurriedly turned to Lin Shangzhou and Letitia and said that she was going to the toilet. Letitia nodded indifferently. Luo Er hurriedly ran to the door. After she came out, she closed the door tightly as if it was her fault.
However, after leaving the room, the little girl did not go to the toilet, but leaned against the wall with a smile of success on her face. After grinning for a while, Luo Er walked to the side of the corridor whistling.
Lin Shangzhou and Letitia were chatting in the room, but they ran out of topics to talk about and the atmosphere in the room gradually became awkward.
"Fritts, can you bring me the porridge? I'm a little hungry."
"it is good."
Letitia was the first to break the awkwardness. After hearing this, Lin Shangzhou stood up and picked up the bowl, but he did not hand it to Letitia. Instead, he sat on the chair and stirred the porridge with a spoon.
"How about I feed you?"
Lin Shangzhou blurted out such a sentence, which confused Letitia.
"Eh?"
She also reacted quickly and waved her hands to reject Lin Shangzhou's request.
"No... that's not necessary. I can drink it myself."
Lin Shangzhou made this request not on a whim, but because he wanted to do it. However, since Letitia disagreed, he did not force her. After stirring the spoon a few more times, he handed the bowl to Letitia.
"Thank you."
Letitia thanked him quietly, then picked up a spoon, scooped a bowl of porridge, blew on it gently to cool it down, and put it into her mouth. After the health-preserving porridge entered her mouth, the warm porridge and the faint sweetness instantly filled Letitia's mouth. After swallowing a spoonful of hot porridge, Letitia's body also felt much warmer.
She drank the porridge spoonful by spoonful. Lin Shangzhou sat by the bed and watched the girl drinking porridge on the bed. When there was half of the porridge left in the bowl, he asked, "How does it taste?"
Letitia nodded vigorously to show her approval, and after swallowing the porridge in her mouth, she praised: "Uncle For's cooking skills are really great!"
Lin Shangzhou showed a faint smile on his face. He smiled and said, "Today's porridge was not made by my uncle, but by me."
Today, because Lin Yangyu was busy sending Alexandrine to the train station, he got up early and drove to Wuyou Palace, so today's health porridge was made by Lin Shangzhou.
Letitia, who was drinking porridge, was almost choked by this sentence. After drinking a spoonful of porridge, she hurriedly said: "You are also very good, as good as Uncle Fule."
"As long as you think it tastes good, drink it slowly."
Lin Shangzhou said softly, and then he leaned back in his chair and looked intently at Letitia on the bed. Being stared at like this by Lin Shangzhou, Letitia couldn't help feeling a little shy, and because of her shyness, she quickly finished the bowl of porridge.
Lin Shangzhou took the bowl and put it in his lunch box, then turned to Letitia and said, "Have a good rest. I still have work to do, so I'll leave first."
"Ah."
Letitia nodded and watched Lin Shangzhou leave the room.
After Lin Shangzhou walked out of the door and closed the room, Letitia licked her lips with satisfaction. A faint sweetness came from the tip of her tongue. This sweetness also entered Letitia's heart, making her heart feel sweet.
Not long after Lin Shangzhou left, Luoer slowly returned to the room. When she saw that Lin Shangzhou was not in the room, she couldn't wait to ask Leticia what happened during her absence. Leticia knew that Luoer deliberately left her and Lin Shangzhou alone, so she tapped Luoer's head gently with her hand and told her what happened in a lighthearted manner.

Chapter 164 Headlines
The news that Alexandrine had accepted the invitation of King Adalbert of Wallonia of Flanders to visit his country spread throughout Germany after she boarded the train. The media and commentators reported the matter and put forward their own speculations. Among these people's ideas, there was one unexpected consensus: they all believed that Alexandrine's invitation to visit was another step for her to regain power.
But no matter how they speculate, it is always just speculation, and these media cannot affect Alexandrine who is on the train to the German-French (Flanders Wallonia) border.
While reporting this incident, the media also released reporters, hoping to go to the Wuyou Palace for interviews. After all, the reporter from the "Forward" newspaper had previously come to the Wuyou Palace to conduct a brief interview with His Majesty.
They thought that since reporters from the tabloid Vorwarts could enter the Souci Palace for interviews, they could too.
Unfortunately, before entering the gate of Wuyou Palace, they were stopped by four guards guarding the gate. The guards would not let them in, and the reporters had no choice because they could not force their way into Wuyou Palace. If they did, it would be a matter of bother and no trouble.
But there was a stubborn person who thought that if the reporter from the Vorwarts could get in, then why couldn't they? This person asked Hans this question loudly and was laughed at by Hans.
"Don't you see who you are? The editor-in-chief of the Forward has a good relationship with His Majesty. Of course he can bring people in. Does anyone among you know His Majesty? Does anyone know anyone in the Worship Palace?"
Hans mercilessly mocked the group of reporters, leaving them speechless. Only then did they realize that the reporter from the Vorwarts newspaper had relied on connections to enter the Palace of Souci to interview His Majesty...
The reporters were keenly aware that Hans' words contained information that could become the headlines of the next issue, so they asked Hans who the editor-in-chief of "Forward" was and what kind of relationship he had with His Majesty.
Hans then realized that he seemed to have said something wrong, so he shut his mouth and remained silent.
When the reporters saw that Hans was unwilling to speak, they turned their attention to the other three people. Naturally, these three people also chose to remain silent. After getting tired of being asked questions, they drove all the reporters away.
After leaving the Palace of Souci, the reporters tried every means to find out who the editor-in-chief of the Vorwart was. One of them came up with a quick and direct approach: to ask someone from the Vorwart.
He was the first to think so, the first to do so, and the first reporter to learn the identity of the editor-in-chief from the employees of the Qianjin newspaper.
When the reporter learned that the editor-in-chief of Vorwarts, Fritz Hippel, was a Chinese, he exclaimed that this was bombshell news and hurried back to his newspaper to make amends.
After him, other reporters also learned the news from various channels. On the next day, February 2, Lin Shangzhou was reported by various media.
Of course, what they reported was not Lin Shangzhou, but the name "Firitz Hipper". In addition, they did not have a photo, so some citizens of Berlin expressed confusion after seeing such a news, and Lin Shangzhou was very troubled after seeing the news in the newspaper.
His headache was not that he was exposed, but that his mother's newspaper wrote that he had a very good relationship with the German Emperor. It was inevitable that a young man like him maintaining a good relationship with the 16-year-old German Emperor would arouse people's imagination, especially when Alexandrine hardly had any contact with other men of the same age.
However, Lin Shangzhou was quite thankful that no newspaper wrote this, and they did not dare to write this. After all, this was gossip news. It was okay for him as an ordinary person, but the other party was the emperor of Germany. People might like to read this kind of news, but no reporter would dare to gossip about such things.
The media focused on his Chinese identity and expressed surprise that His Majesty would maintain friendly relations with a Chinese. At the same time, some articles pointed out that Lin Shangzhou's Chinese identity just explained why the "Forward" criticized the prime minister's policies in January and why it fought a small public opinion war with the media led by the "JoongAng Ilbo".
The Qianjin Daily did this because its editor-in-chief is Chinese.
Lin Shangzhou didn't want to get involved in this matter, but the newspaper staff told him that there were many reporters waiting to interview him outside the newspaper office. Lin Shangzhou had no choice but to come forward and accept the interview from the reporters, but he only said a few brief words to let them know that he was indeed Chinese and then returned to the newspaper office.
Lin Shangzhou felt inexplicably uneasy when he returned to his office. His identity was almost exposed now. Everyone in Berlin and even Germany knew that the emperor had a good relationship with a Chinese.
Just as he thought, such news radiated from Berlin to other parts of Germany within a day, and even had an impact on neighboring countries.
Two days later, on February 2, such interesting and surprising news was published in newspapers in other countries.
From Paris to Moscow, from London to Vienna, the countries within the Imperial Pact and the surrounding countries all knew about this news. Even in the United States, which was in the midst of an economic crisis on the other side of the ocean, some people paid attention to this matter.
After a while, this news also spread to China, German East Asia, Japan and other Asian countries in the east. People who paid attention to this matter began to discuss who this Chinese with a German name was. However, this incident did not cause much waves. Although it was surprising, there was nothing worth noting after the surprise.
Lin Shangzhou, sitting in his office chair at a Berlin newspaper office, had no idea that he had become the world's headline news. He was worrying about how to deal with the reporters who might follow him at any time. He didn't want his home to be targeted by reporters.
What he didn't know was that some people in Berlin had already started to act.

Chapter 165 Emergency Situation
On the morning of February 2, Klein came to the German Club, where he used to like to go. He hadn't been here for more than a month since Albert asked him to stop associating with the people there. This place was dispensable to him, but he liked the like-minded people there.
Klein can say whatever he wants to say without any scruples around them, and the people in the club all follow him to curry favor with him. He likes this feeling.
After entering the club, he was warmly welcomed by the club members. After the welcome, Klein found that there was a strange atmosphere in the whole club, which seemed to be anger and sadness.
After some questioning, he learned from a member that everyone in the club was unhappy because of the news from the previous two days. Then the club members told him that they planned to go to the Chinese man's home late at night one day in the future to teach them a lesson.
Upon hearing this plan, Klein hurriedly stopped them and told them that a member of the Storm Commandos had gone to the Chinese man's home. More importantly, that member was not under his jurisdiction and he had no way to transfer him away. Only Cecilia could transfer him away.
After learning about this, the club members asked Klein to think of a solution, because the news made them very angry. They could not accept that the German emperor actually maintained a good relationship with a Chinese. More importantly, His Majesty actually favored those two Chinese.
This group of racists could not accept such a thing. In their view, it was a great honor for a Chinese to live in Germany and serve His Majesty. Yet he dared to make friends with His Majesty as an equal.
The members of the club were eager to do something, but they did not act because of the police patrolling near the house and the warning of the club director. Now that the two men were protected by members of the Storm Commandos, it was even more impossible for them to take action.
As the club member next to Klein spoke, more and more people gathered around the two of them, and they excitedly asked Klein to help them transfer the player away.
Faced with such excited club members, Klein felt that this group of people were a little crazy. He considered himself a guy who hated Chinese people, but he was not so angry about these things.
Klein wanted to help in this matter but he couldn't. He didn't have Bode's authority, which made the club members deeply disappointed. At this time, the club's minister squeezed through the crowd and came to Klein.
He told Klein about his original plan: he would use his connections to divert the patrol police from the area around the Palace of Souci, and then the people from the club could go and teach the two Chinese a lesson.
Now it is clear that this plan cannot be realized, but he said it is not difficult to solve this problem.
Because Klein did not have the power to mobilize Bode, but his uncle, Chancellor Albert, did.
After he reminded him, Klein also thought of this. His uncle Albert was the captain of the Storm Commando during the war, and he has held this position until now. Although he has delegated power to the deputy captain and other capable people in recent years, his status as captain has not changed.
If it was his uncle who gave the order, then Bode could indeed be transferred away, and Bode would not disobey the captain's order.
Then they thought about it and came up with a good idea. They asked Klein to persuade Albert to give the order for the confrontation exercise on the grounds that "the Storm Troopers have not conducted an exercise for some time."
Klein agreed with this. The Stormtroopers had not conducted a confrontation exercise for some time. Such a request was not abrupt and Albert would not have any doubts about it.
However, Klein did not agree to do so immediately. He was worried that these angry club members would do something too extreme. In about ten days, His Majesty would return from Flanders and Wallonia. If they did something too extreme, they would be in trouble, and he would be in trouble too.
In response to this, the club's minister said there was no need to worry at all, they would just teach the two Chinese a lesson as they had done in the past and would not do anything too extreme.
After much hesitation, Klein agreed to help them.
After he agreed, the club members praised his decision, and Klein's worries disappeared without a trace amid their flattery, which was not sure whether it was sincere or false.
At 11 o'clock in the morning, he left the club and returned home. He made this suggestion to the Prime Minister during lunch. As he had other things to do, Albert did not think too much about it. After briefly thinking about the feasibility and when the last exercise confrontation was, he accepted Klein's suggestion.
After lunch he wrote a document, stamped it and asked Klein to take it to gather the Stormtroopers for training.
The Storm Troopers were stationed at a military base in the suburbs of Berlin, but Klein's first stop was not there but Lin Shangzhou's home.
When Lin Yangyu saw that the person who appeared at his door was Klein, he was very confused. After being woken up, Bode was angry and wanted to drive Klein away, but he remained silent after seeing the documents in Klein's hand.
Bode didn't want to leave, but the document in Klein's hand was signed by the captain himself, ordering him to gather at the base. His mission to protect Lin Yangyu and the other two was assigned to him by Cecilia, but now a higher-level captain has assigned him a new task.
It was clear who should be executed first from the identity of the person who assigned the task. In addition, Lin Yangyu persuaded him that the captain's task was more important, so Bode had no choice but to pack up and follow Klein out of Lin Yangyu's house.
When Lin Shangzhou got home in the evening and learned about this, the first thing he thought of was to call Cecilia. However, after he took out his communicator, he remembered that Cecilia was out of the effective communication distance.
Unable to ask Cecilia for help, Lin Shangzhou tried his best to persuade Lin Yangyu to move out. However, Lin Yangyu was determined not to move away, just like last time. His reason was that although Bode had left, the police were still there, so there was nothing to worry about.
After that, Lin Shangzhou persuaded Lin Yangyu for two days, until February 2th when he finally wavered and agreed to temporarily move to another place.
It was only at this time that Lin Shangzhou finally let go of his worries.

Chapter 166 The Last Time Together
At nine o'clock in the morning on the 11th, Lin Shangzhou was packing his luggage at home with his uncle. He had contacted Louis yesterday and found a temporary house in the city of Berlin. He would send someone to help them with the luggage in the afternoon.
There were many things to take away, so in Uncle Lin Shangzhou's room, he took out everything in the cabinet and prepared to put them in the suitcase according to his uncle's request. After putting those items into the suitcase one by one, Lin Shangzhou found that there was only a notebook left, so he took the notebook out of the cabinet.
Out of curiosity, Lin Shangzhou opened the notebook directly from the middle. Inside were color photos of him and his uncle. He sat on the bed while looking at the photos.
Looking at the boy standing next to Lin Yangyu in the photo, Lin Shangzhou felt strange. Due to memory loss, he had no idea what happened when most of the photos were taken, and the boy in the photo was both him and not him.
He touched the people in the photos with his hands and imagined what happened at that time.
