LOL: I am a bad prince in Demacia.

"What are you two boys talking about? You are thinking about this and that."

At this time, another voice came from outside, accompanied by a burst of footsteps.

Immediately, Tiana opened the door and walked in.

When Lu Qi saw her, he immediately greeted her with a smile: "Hello, aunt."

"Auntie is not good."

Tiana glanced at him and asked, "What are you two talking about?"

Lu Qi said: "Talk about some sensitive topics."

Tiana raised her eyebrows: "How sensitive is it that I can't listen to it anymore?"

"Of course Auntie can listen. There is no one better than you."

Lu Qi kept a smile on his face and said, "I just happened to be looking for you later, but I didn't expect you to come here first."

Tiana chuckled: "That's because my left eyelid suddenly kept twitching just now. I guess it's some unlucky guy here."

Lu Qi was thick-skinned and immediately said after hearing this: "Doesn't that mean there is a connection between my aunt and me?"

Tiana finally smiled angrily, then glanced at him again and said, "Stop joking and get down to business. What were you talking about just now?"

Speaking of this, Lu Qi's face also regained its normal expression, becoming rarely serious.

To be honest, Tiana rarely saw this kid show this kind of expression, but in her impression, once he had this kind of expression, it meant that he really had something big to do.

Lu Qi said: "Since the last time I came back from the Gate of Sorrow, I have been thinking, are we, Demacia, weak?"

Tiana heard this and replied: "Of course it is not weak. Demacia has been a country for more than 670 years. It is one of the few countries in Rune Land with a long history. At the same time, its military strength has not been weak since ancient times. Known as the country of steel, it is impregnable. Large-scale war defeats are rare and have nothing to do with weakness."

As a marshal of a country, she was very confident to say this.

This is not to be blindly arrogant, but this is the fact on Runeterra.

You know, Demacia is located in the west of the Valoran continent. This land is mostly pastoral and mountainous. It has mountains, water, and rich mineral resources. Crops and food are also easy to grow. It can be said to be a very good treasure land.

Occupying such a place, if Demacia didn't have the strength, it would have been licked away by the surroundings at an unknown time.

Lu Qi asked again: "If he is not weak, then why do people always come to provoke him in a few years?"

Tiana thought for a while and said: "As times advance with the times, naturally the strengths and weaknesses of other parties are constantly changing, and there will always be people who feel that they are stronger."

"No." Lu Qi slowly shook his head and said: "In my opinion, we are not strong enough, so everyone can regard us as weak persimmons who are strong on the outside but weak on the inside."

"Noxus invades all the time, starting a war at will, coming and leaving at will. Even the tribes in the Freljord come back at every turn. We are their vegetable garden. Son, come and pick two vegetables when you are hungry."

Tiana listened to Lu Qi's words quietly, frowning slightly not because she thought there was something wrong with Lu Qi's words, but because she was also thinking about it.

In fact, it was not that she had not considered the issues Lu Qi mentioned.

Speaking of which, she actually guessed what Lu Qi was going to do.

"Advocating justice, honor and responsibility is something that every Demacian is proud of. This is also the foundation of Demacia. However, blind obedience will corrode our heels bit by bit, and then forever. No one will dare to take that step again.”

"I know what you are worried about. You are afraid that no one can shoulder this responsibility and shoulder this mission. Because Demacia has never done this since ancient times. The reason is that their noble justice does not allow them to do this. Do it. Is this really justice? I don’t think so, it’s just a kind of perversity!”

Lu Qi's words would probably arouse public outrage if he put them out there.

However, there were only one of them in this huge office at this time, and Jarvan IV and Tiana both listened in silence.

"So, I will do what no one else does."

"What no one dares to carry, I will carry it."

"Let Runeterra truly know Demacia, and let Demacia's name resound in every corner of Runeterra."

"I feel like this is my calling."

In order to say these two lines, Lu Qi had said a lot of words before. Now he was speaking in a rather coquettish posture, raising his head at a 45-degree angle.

I was quite satisfied.

If I were to write a history book in the future and be engraved in a Demacia textbook, I would think he would be extremely handsome.

"Second brother! That's great. If nothing else, eldest brother supports you!"

Jarvan IV's face turned red as if he had been given chicken blood, and he stood up slapping the table.

When he was young, his thoughts were similar to Lu Qi's.

It's just that in comparison, he is caught in the middle, having to think about both the front and the end.

But there is no doubt that the one he supports the most at the moment is Lu Qi.

Tiana raised her eyes to look at Jarvan IV, then lowered her eyes. She naturally had more questions to think about.

Have you considered?

She actually wanted to ask this just now.

But he didn’t ask about the exit.

She naturally understood very well that Lu Qi had never been the kind of young man who was passionate, hot-headed, and decided what he wanted to do as soon as he slapped his head.

Now that he is standing here and saying these words, it is obvious that he has thought deeply about it.

Tiana looked at Lu Qi at this moment and said, "Even so, I still want to ask about your true intention."

Lu Qi also looked at her and said bluntly: "My intention is simple and clear, that is to conquer Noxus!"

Tiana was not surprised. She looked leisurely and said slowly: "Since ancient times, Demacia has never advocated war. There are three reasons. One is our bottom line. We never actively invade other countries."

"The second is that launching a war often requires a lot of manpower, material resources, and financial resources. It is much more than defense. Once it fails, it will cause irreparable losses."

"Third, in a war, the people and soldiers who are under the greatest pressure are the common people and soldiers. A sacrifice will only result in the blood and tears of a family. We can start a war with just one word, but it is they who bear the pressure."

"I have had your thoughts before. When I was at my most energetic, or in other words, many people like you and me have had such thoughts."

"Why do we always have to wait for the enemy to attack before we fight back? Why can't we take the initiative? Because once we do that, there is no turning back."

When she said these words, her eyes were very serious, and the light in her eyes flickered slightly, as if she had not made up her mind back then.

She hoped that her words would make Lu Qi change his mind.

But I don't know why, but I hope that he can persist.

To put it bluntly, this young man is about to take that step that she once did not have the courage to take.

Before her steps landed, she felt very complicated.

After hearing these words, Lu Qi did not waver. He said slowly: "In my opinion, this is a step that Demacia must take. Now, we seem to be trapped by ourselves. The ban on demons has been lifted. Everything seems to be moving in a good direction, I can wait, I can wait. After all, my own ambition is to lie in the yard, eat, drink and have fun."
