Chapter 439: War of Roses

The wife from the Constantine family won because she gave birth to a son first.

According to imperial law, the legitimate son inherits the title.

But she also lost because a few months later, the wife from the Rulan family gave birth to a healthy baby boy.

To be precise, they were twins.

Of course, when the children were young, cerebral palsy was definitely not visible.

But as the children grew up, all the truth would eventually come to light.

When the Duke of Saint Rose knew that his legitimate son had cerebral palsy, and it was man-made, his anger can be imagined.

Therefore, the wife from the Constantine family fell out of favor, and even the legitimate son would be deprived of the right of inheritance.

Just when the Duke was about to change the order of succession, he suddenly died on his mistress's belly.

According to unofficial history, the Duke was so angry when he knew that his legitimate son had cerebral palsy that he found thirty women in one breath to vent.

Those women ranged from young girls of twelve or thirteen to charming young women of thirty. They took turns to fight the Duke for seven days and seven nights, and finally the Duke died of exhaustion in his own holiday estate.

The official history says that the Duke died because he was overworked in handling official duties.

From this, it can be seen that neither the official history nor the unofficial history mentioned that the Duke's death was related to any conspiracy.

But the timing of his death was so coincidental, just when he was about to modify the order of succession.

If it is said that there is no conspiracy in this, Ethan does not believe it.

However, no one knows what the facts are.

The only thing we know is that since he did not modify the order of succession in time, there were big problems with the succession of the Duke's position after his death.

According to imperial law, the Duke's position will be inherited by the legitimate son.

But how can a cerebral palsy become a Duke?

No matter who it is, it is impossible to accept such a ruler?

So the wife from the Rulan family proposed that the second heir, that is, her son, should inherit the title.

Her proposal was supported not only by her mother's family, but also by all the Kusher people.

It even got the support of the Holy Light Church.

The reason why the Holy Light Church supported it was definitely not because the legitimate son was mentally handicapped, nor was it for the sake of the public, but because the Kushir people were basically all Holy Light believers.

But their proposal was strongly opposed by the wife of the Constantine family, who believed that the law should be followed as written.

And she also received support from her mother's family and the Ansas people.

Of course, there must be support from the Temple Church and even the Emperor.

With such a complex religious, humanistic, and various forces intervening, it is conceivable how fierce the competition for the position of the Duke of the Holy Rose is.

So, the conflict broke out and the two sides fought.

Since both sides came from the Holy Rose family, in order to distinguish each other, they added color to the original golden rose family emblem.

The heirs from the Constantine family added white to the family emblem because they believed that they were the pure heirs granted by the law, and white represented purity.

The heirs from the Rulan family have red added to their family emblems, because red is the color of blood, implying that they have the pure blood of the Holy Rose family flowing in their bodies, and they are the purest heirs.

Both sides claim to be the purest descendants of the Holy Rose family.

In the end, the Constantine family won again. The cerebral palsy heir, with the support of the emperor of the empire, entered the Dawn City and became the new duke.

But the heirs of the Rulan family were not convinced and did not accept this fact, so they moved their family to the area controlled by the Kusher people and established the Dawn City.

Since then, the Holy Rose family has been completely divided into two families.

And due to irreconcilable contradictions, the first battle for the title broke out a year later, known as the "Rose War"!

This war lasted for two hundred years.

Even now, there is still no winner.

And in these two hundred years, the two sides fought and stopped, and I don’t know how many wars they have experienced, but no one can do anything to each other.

At the beginning, the war between them was just a pure fight for the title.

However, as the Holy Light Church and the Temple Church became more and more involved, the purpose of their war gradually changed.

Nowadays, the Rose War has become a wrestling field between two giants.

Whenever there is an irreconcilable conflict between the two churches, Dawn City and Dawn Break City will have a fight.

This sounds a bit ridiculous. The conflict between the two churches did not kill their own people, but the innocent Holy Rose Family.

Although it is indeed ridiculous, this is the fact.

This is the case with people and countries. When you are weak, you may just be someone else's plaything. And even if you know this, you can't resist.

Nowadays, because of the ownership of the Customs Department, the two churches are once again ready to fight on the territory of the Holy Rose Family.

Both sides have gathered tens of thousands of troops and confronted each other at the border. The situation is so tense that it is possible to accidentally fire at any time.

Ethan actually got the news a long time ago, but he didn't know whether it would really fight.

In fact, he even felt that it was very likely that there would be no fight.

After all, the louder the thunder, the smaller the raindrops, or even no rain at all.

However, he guessed wrong this time.

On January 24, Red Rose took action.

They had a 2,000-man army that took advantage of the night, braved the cold, bypassed the enemy's defense line, quietly crossed the Seine River, and raided Starlight Town, an important town belonging to Dawn City.

Starlight Town is located at the branch of the Seine River.

From here, the Seine River splits into two, one goes south to the city of Ekasia in the Dukedom of Torres and enters the sea, and the other goes east to the city of Maro and enters the sea.

Starlight Town is located in the triangle formed by the two branches, where it can control the river on both sides at the same time, and its strategic location is extremely important.

There is also a shipyard here, and with the rise of shipping, its value has also risen infinitely.

Therefore, for both sides, Starlight Town is a must-fight place.

This important town has been controlled by Dawn City before, and now it has been raided, which proves that the two sides are really likely to go to war this time.

Ethan was extremely excited after learning the news.

Because this war is crucial to Maro City, he pays close attention to the information there.

He didn't wait long. After learning that Starlight Town had been raided, Dawn City immediately sent troops to recapture it.

At the same time, the troops facing each other began to advance to contain the enemy.

Nearly 100,000 soldiers from both sides officially exchanged fire on a front line that stretched for hundreds of miles.

After learning that the war had officially started, Ethan immediately found Sophia and asked her opinion.

As a result, Sophia didn't say what she thought, but dragged Ethan to fight a big battle.

Since giving birth to the child, Sophia has been like this. Whenever there is something, she must fight with Ethan first.

This is in sharp contrast with Angelina.

Before giving birth to the child, Angelina wanted it every night, but since giving birth to the child, Angelina has put all her thoughts on raising the child and almost lost her sexual desire.

Ethan knew that the reason why Angelina was so promiscuous before was mainly because she lacked a sense of security, not because she really liked sex.

Now that she has a child, she also feels safe, so she has lost interest in sex.

But Ethan didn't understand how Sophia became like this. In the past, if Ethan didn't take the initiative to touch her, she would never take the initiative, but now it's the other way around.

Fortunately, these are all trivial matters. As long as Sophia is served well, everything can be solved.

After a big battle, Sophia said breathlessly: "You asked me what I think, but you want to ask how to make them keep fighting?"

Ethan smiled: "The one who knows me is Sophia!"

"That's simple. Whoever is weaker, help him!"
