Chapter 572
Not only would a large area of land face the threat of the Carthaginian army, but even the capital of Rome was in danger. Seeing her country in such a crisis, Sophie naturally felt very uncomfortable.
In addition, the relationship between Da Qin and Rome also gave Sophie a headache.
With the current economic and military strength of Great Qin, even if you look around the world, you will definitely not be able to find another country that can rival it.
Although the territory of the Qin Dynasty has expanded many times compared to before, whether it is the First Emperor or the Crown Prince Ying Yu, they are all heroes with great ambitions and the courage to annex mountains and rivers.
They will definitely not be satisfied with the current territory of Qin, but will continue to expand their territory and establish a great dynasty that will be Qin's in the world.
This means that Da Qin will definitely unify the Western Regions and even the entire world in the future.
The Qin Dynasty wanted to unify the Western Regions, and with Rome's important position in the Western Regions, Rome was a point that the Qin Dynasty could not avoid no matter what.
In other words, if Qin wanted to unify the Western Regions, it had to annex Rome.
Now that Sophie has married Ying Yu, she will be considered half a Qin citizen from now on.
However, after all, Rome is Sophie's motherland. Sophie was born and grew up here. This place contains many memories for Sophie, which she never wants to let go of.
In addition, Sophie also knew the reason why Scipio married Da Qin and married her to Ying Yu.
One is to strengthen the relationship with Qin and strive for a few more years of peace and stability for Rome.
The other is to use the powerful reputation of the Qin Dynasty to intimidate the great nobles in Rome, so that they can implement the long-awaited New Deal, make Rome prosperous again, and even restore Rome's past glory.
In Scipio's beautiful vision, by that time, even the Qin Dynasty might not be able to defeat Rome so easily.
Before coming to Great Qin, Sophie had had this idea, but since coming to Great Qin and seeing with her own eyes the prosperous agricultural and industrial industries in Great Qin, as well as the science and technology comparable to miracles, this idea has been in Sophie's mind.
disappeared without a trace in my heart.
Because Da Qin was so powerful, it was so prosperous that it surpassed Rome by dozens of streets in almost every aspect.
Not to mention anything else, it is just a steam engine. If it does not receive any assistance from Da Qin, it may not be possible to develop it just by relying on Rome's own scientific researchers, even after hundreds of years of research.
Therefore, the gap between Rome and the Qin Dynasty is as big as the sky. This is not something that Rome can catch up with in just a few years.
What's even more despairing is that, not to mention the dizzying situation inside and outside Rome, whether it can survive the past few years.
Even if Rome was really given several years to develop, in these few years, Rome's productivity and technology had been improved.
But will Great Qin stop moving forward?
With the current rapid development rate of Great Qin, after a few years, Rome will certainly improve, but Great Qin will only improve faster than Rome!
Faced with such an opponent, Rome was simply unable to resist.
Sophie could almost foresee that a few years later, Rome would be unable to resist the powerful Qin. In the end, Rome could only declare surrender and be helplessly annexed by the Qin.
Thinking of this, as a Roman citizen who married into Da Qin, Sophie's heart suddenly became complicated and confused.
The only one who could give her warmth and comfort was Ying Yu.
In the past few days, Ying Yu often came to the VIP Guest House to chat with her.
Logically speaking, Ying Yu is the crown prince of the Qin Dynasty, while Sophie is just a princess of a country that is about to fall, and the survival of Rome completely depends on the attitude of the Qin Dynasty. Therefore, although there is an engagement between the two, there is a status gap.
Great disparity.
If it were any other person, he would have been able to boss Sophie around at will, but Ying Yu had no airs in front of her and communicated with her completely on an equal footing.
And whenever Sophie mentioned things that bothered her, Ying Yu would go out of his way to comfort her and encourage her, and would not show any resentment or avoid suspicion because she was a Roman. This made Sophie feel
Unprecedented sincerity and warmth.
In the past, Sophie thought that the reason why Yu Shu, Yu Ji and other peerless beauties followed Ying Yu so wholeheartedly was because of Fusu's amazing talents and his nobility as the crown prince of the Qin Dynasty, the most powerful country in the world.
identity.
Only now did Sophie realize that these things were just the qualities that attracted them to get close to Ying Yu. What really made Xiao Mei, Yu Ji and others devoted themselves to Ying Yu was Ying Yu's kindness, generosity, warmth and tolerance.
Thinking of this, Sophie felt more and more that Ying Yu was so perfect. Being lucky enough to be his wife in this life was a blessing that took countless lifetimes to cultivate.
Sophie immediately stopped thinking and began to look forward to her wedding night.
For women, the wedding night is undoubtedly the scene they have dreamed about the most since childhood, and now that day has finally arrived, their husband is still the one they have always been attracted to.
This made Sophie full of expectations, and at the same time, the deer in her heart began to rush faster, as if it was about to jump out of her chest at any time.
Sophie continued to think wildly, but after some time, there was finally a patter of footsteps outside the wedding room.
Then there was the sound of the door being pushed open.
I saw Ying Yu walking in with a smile on his face.
When she heard Ying Yu's voice coming in, Sophie's mood was one of joy and more of nervousness. She held the gorgeous wedding dress so tightly that it wrinkled a little.
Seeing her nervous look, a rich smile appeared on Ying Yu's face.
"There are only you and me in the room, why are you so nervous."
Ying Yu lifted Sophie's red hijab with Yu Ruyi, and a soft smile appeared on her lips.
At this moment, under the bridal makeup, Sophie has bright eyes and white teeth, red lips and white teeth. She is less agile than usual, but more dignified and demure, making people unable to help but feel pity for her.
"Husband."
Sophie Zhen lowered her head slightly, her voice still shy.
Ying Yu smiled, put his hands on the back of Sophie's folded hands, and held them gently.
"Sophie, you look so beautiful today."
As the words slowly fell, clusters of bright and gorgeous fireworks rose outside the window, dyeing the air with color.
