Chapter 1316: extinct noble

Although the Gwana Empire allowed polygamy and had various restrictions on women; on the other hand, it also gave women considerable compensation, especially in terms of power. For example, if you want to marry a new wife, you need the consent of all the original wives. As long as one of the wives doesn't nod, I'm sorry, but the new sister has no rightful place.

Sometimes it's just that men just want to try something new and have fun, and they don't think about giving the other party a name seriously, but they accidentally kill them. Moreover, most of these women who are on the disadvantaged side are civilians or people from outside the empire.

It is even more difficult for such a person to enter the circle of imperial nobles. Because with the conservative style of the noble women of the Gwana Empire, it is unlikely that such a thing will happen. As for some broken and dirty things, I won't mention them much.

In short, in the aristocratic circle, those who are not born by official wives are classified as illegitimate children.

Even if an illegitimate child is related by blood, he cannot be placed in the line of succession unless the emperor approves it. And this franchise cannot be granted indiscriminately.

In the real situation, all the children with a clear blood relationship are dead, and there is really no one who can come forward to inherit it. As a last resort, we will consider letting illegitimate children come out to continue the inheritance of a noble. This also reflects the exclusivity of the imperial nobility.

Looking back at the situation of the Lisa family, the Grand Duke of Lisa is clearly dead. Even if you don't see the corpse, you can get the same result if you use divination magic.

Although it is not ruled out that Mr. Lisa faked his death and hid in the dark. However, strategically speaking, doing so will only make the situation of the Lisa family collapse faster and more completely. A sane leader would not make such a choice unless there is a strategy to turn things around.

And now it seems that the Lisa family has no trick to turn the tables, but really collapsed. If the Kawei family took the opportunity to send troops, even the gods would be hard to save.

Under such circumstances, those who have the right to inherit have long since jumped out, begging the emperor to confer, and take over the power of the Lisa family. If there are too many people jumping out, then compare everyone's order to see who is in the front and who is in the back.

However, some time has passed since the explosion of the Lisa family, and no one clamored to inherit the title of Grand Duke of Lisa. Some time ago, the old emperor took out the succession list of the Lisa family and named them one by one. As a result, those who were ranked on it were either confirmed dead a long time ago, or they were missing.

It is certainly possible that these missing persons died together in the explosion, but it has not been confirmed. But it's not impossible that they just hid to avoid being targeted by Duke Kavi.

After all, the old man's army is fully prepared and is just waiting for the order to attack. At this time, whoever came forward to inherit the title of Grand Duke of Rissa would be like a groundhog getting out of a hole. The old man of the Kawei family smashed all the red and white out without hammering down.

However, this is not without room for maneuver. The main branch that was targeted by Duke Kavi was undoubtedly Angie Rissa. So will the Kawi family be sure to exterminate the Lisa family? Or is it just one kill and one kill in the main branch?

In the history of the empire, because of the blood flag revenge, it was dragged into the quagmire of war, and there were many situations where both sides suffered losses. In the end, the emperor came forward to clean up the mess. Both sides played 50 big boards each, and then stopped and went back to their respective houses. In the end, no one was able to destroy the other.

Such a situation is what both parties want to avoid in Blood Banner Revenge. It is also the reason why Lord Kawei didn't send troops in the first place, trying to solve the war with a fast break. Because of doing so, it is easy to lose control and let the power of the whole family slide into the abyss of war.

If Duke Kavi can get rid of the anger by eliminating the main branch of the Lisa family, then for the successor of the Lisa family, the strike is nothing more than a matter of more or less cost. For the close bloodlines with the right to inherit, there was no chance at first, but it has become a chance to pick up the title of a great nobleman for nothing, and it is not too much to pay for it.

Even so, no one came forward to speculate for a while, which shows something. There is a great possibility that it is true that all the people who ranked first in the main branch of the Lisa family and the nearest branch have died. The other offshoots and in-laws who were not in line of succession were watching.

If this is the case, then whether the Lisa family can continue is a matter between the emperor nodding or shaking his head. That's why Ricardo Carvey made such a request.

Is the Grand Duke important? The families that guard the frontiers of the empire are of course very important.

Whenever the territory of the empire expands, the territories of the sixteen grand duke families will be changed, giving up the hinterland of the empire and moving to the newly occupied frontiers, and so on for hundreds of years. Maybe they haven't done this in the past two hundred years, allowing them to operate well in their respective territories, but the importance of the Grand Duke's family has not diminished.

"Apocalypse"

However... when forums and transportation methods such as cars and trucks appeared, it seemed that the situation was a little different.

Is the Grand Duke still necessary? It seems... as if it is not so necessary.

So is this a good time?

With this thought, the beating sound of the old emperor's heart echoed in his ear drums. Almin was moved by the suggestion made by this old buddy who had followed him all his life.

I have spent my whole life improving the majesty of the royal family and winning the hearts of the nobles, all for the power in their hands. The original idea was to slowly weaken the nobles, but as he was getting older, Emperor Almin was not at all sure whether his successors would appreciate his painstaking efforts and continue this route.

However, the dispute between the two grand dukes undoubtedly put an excellent opportunity in front of him, allowing the emperor to take a big step forward in his ambition. However, the result of the war was beyond everyone's expectations, but...the chance seemed to be better!

While thinking eagerly about how this matter should work, the old emperor saw the insignificant young man standing three steps behind his father.

In fact, Marquis Falshid was not considered young. But after all, it was Emperor Almin who saw the older children, no matter whether they had a beard or not, or whether their hair was white or not, they were still young in the eyes of their generation.

And this young man represents another generation. Emperor Almin didn't know if he had discussed with his children when his old man made these requests and suggestions.

Although the two appeared together, Ricardo Carvey was notoriously arbitrary. He will ask for advice on everything, but because he doesn't care about those things. And what he really wants to do is usually done before others know. The old emperor didn't know how many times he met in his life.

So Emperor Almin couldn't help wondering what this young man with no sense of existence was thinking. Because of this, he joked: "Son, your father ruined the inheritance left by his ancestors like this, so you don't have anything to say to him?"

It is a good thing for the Marquis of Falshid to attack the prince early. It is a small matter to give away or sell the cars and trucks allocated by the two legions, but the ten manors are a major event that shakes the foundation. It is the old man's own business that the old man is willing to sacrifice the interests of his family and be loyal to himself. But does his family think the same?

In all fairness, Noonan Farshid had no idea. That doesn't mean he's a follower, but he agrees with what his father said.

Under the premise of forums and cars, it is a trend for power to be greatly concentrated in the center. Because the locality does not need much power, the empire can still manage the locality well. And doing so is good for the Gwana Empire.

But local power is now held in the hands of local lords. In other words, this trend will bring about two developments, one is peaceful transition, the power of the nobles is weakened, and the power of the emperor is strengthened; two, civil war. Even if it is not fought during the reign of the current emperor, there is a high probability that this conflict will erupt at any time.

From the standpoint of the family, it seems that he should oppose his father's conspiracy with the emperor and maintain the interests of the family. But in the long run, if you show loyalty and tie your family and the royal family tightly, the benefits you can get may not be inferior to the one-third of an acre of land on the frontier.

However, the latter's interests depend on whether the successor emperor can continue his investment, which is invisible and unpredictable. Choose a land manor, because it is a visible thing, as long as it is occupied, it can continue to produce benefits, which is easier to understand.

But between difficulty and simplicity, Noonan Falcid has the confidence to handle any situation. So he really has no idea how to choose between the two.

But the emperor's question still needs to be answered, so Marquis Falshid bowed his head respectfully, and said a beautiful sentence: "It is my lifelong ambition to serve His Majesty. Life can be lost, but what is outside the body is nothing."

"Good! Good, good." Emperor Almin stepped forward with satisfaction, and patted the young man of his nephew's generation heavily on the shoulder. With the strong support of the father and son, even at his age, some past taboos are not impossible to touch. So the emperor was even more proud.

In the end, the blood flag revenge battle that was not really fought, the emperor's handling shocked countless people.

The first thing to mention is that these dispositions were issued by the emperor himself without the consent of the prime minister of the empire, that is, the crown prince. It means that the parties involved are the best of the old emperor's generation~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Even if the crown prince wants to intervene, even if he reveals his identity, it will not help. So the old emperor handled it by himself, and there was nothing wrong with it.

First of all, the old emperor explicitly ordered the end of the war and ordered all the legions in the Lisa Territory to disband on the spot. The leftover armaments and materials are kept by the local lords.

However, there was no heir to the Lisa family's territory, and the old emperor directly sent an administrator to 'temporarily manage' it. This is also the standard way of dealing with those extinct families. As for the management, taxation and military service of the territory, of course they are directly responsible to the emperor. Originally, the management of the affairs of the vassals of the Rissa family was also entrusted to this administrator.

Such behavior is very unusual in the eyes of other nobles.

To be able to have hereditary vassals, it must be a great noble. However, there are precedents for managing extinct aristocratic territories in the mode of administrators, but in the past it was only for minor nobles.

The so-called 'big' among the great nobles not only refers to their status, but also refers to the size of their family. Even if the main branch dies, is it true that no suitable heir can be found from bloodlines such as close branches, side branches, in-laws, etc.?
