[British and American Entertainment] The Road to True Love
Chapter 40 The Dusty Past
"Master, we are here." After the driver stopped the car, he turned his head and said to the silent middle-aged gentleman sitting in the back seat. Full of sharpness.
The gentleman gave a "hmm", and the black-clothed bodyguard on the passenger seat quickly got out of the car, opened the door for him, and carefully helped the man get out of the car.After getting out of the car, the middle-aged gentleman quickly stood still. He leaned on his cane in one hand, put on his hat in the other hand, and looked around, looking at this place.
This is Greenwich [Note 1] in southeast London, on the south bank of the Thames.Here is the Prime Meridian [Note 2], and it is also the starting point for the calculation of time and geographic longitude in the world. It is also here that the whole world is divided into two hemispheres, the East and the West; here the world’s first chart [Note 3] was born, and here we witness It covers the history of British astronomy and navigation throughout the 17th and 18th centuries.
At this moment, a group of middle-aged gentlemen are outside a single-family two-story building in Greenwich. The overall color of the building is brick red. Undergrowth and bushes, everything looks so vibrant.
The middle-aged gentleman let out a breath without a trace, and walked towards the small building step by step, and the bodyguards in black followed quickly.The door of the small building is double-layered, the outer layer is a screen door, and the inner layer is an iron-gray door. After the gentleman rang the doorbell, a female voice came from the room asking them to wait a moment.
After a while, the iron-gray door opened, and a woman appeared behind the screen door. She was wearing floral home clothes and an apron, and while wiping her hands with the hem of the apron, she said, "Please find..."
Before she finished speaking, she saw clearly the person outside the door, her movements froze, and she froze on the spot, not knowing how to react.The middle-aged gentleman took off his fedora hat and said in a low voice, "Kay, long time no see, don't you invite me in for a sit down?"
The woman who was called Kay smiled restrainedly, opened the screen door, and invited the middle-aged gentleman and the man in black behind him to come in and sit down. The middle-aged gentleman sat down in the living room, and the man in black stood one step behind him. From afar, pay attention to everything around you.
Kay poured a cup of hot black tea for the middle-aged gentleman. The man gracefully picked up the cup, took a sip, put down the cup gently, looked around the furnishings in the room, and said, "It's a very cozy house."
Kai said dryly, "Thank you, Elias." The middle-aged gentleman, that is, Elias in Kai's mouth, calmly looked at Kai, who was obviously a little restless, and said lightly: "You It doesn't seem like I'm very welcome."
Kay's hands on her knees tightened suddenly, she stabilized her emotions, and then said: "It's not that you are not welcome, I was just a little surprised, because when we separated, we agreed not to disturb you again. each other's life."
Elias frowned and said, "Indeed, but that's because you insisted on it. Also, Kay, don't you think you have something else that you should tell me?"
Kai's face was pale, with a look of rejection on his face, and he retorted in a slightly raised voice: "No, we don't have anything to say!" Elias narrowed his sharp eyes slightly.
He patted the coffee table in front of him with little force, but the emerald ring on his index finger made a crisp sound when it touched the surface of the glass coffee table, and Kay's nerves jumped.
Elias' voice gradually became angry, and he said, "Really? Let me remind you! June 1992, 6, do you remember?"
Kay finally couldn't resist the pressure. He covered his face in a collapsed state, trembling all over, and said in a mournful voice, "Elias, please stop, please stop..."
How could she not remember?How could she not remember?That was the pain in her heart that could never heal, it was the greatest sin of her life, it was the torment of her whole life!She is guilty, she is a sinner!
When Kay and Elias met for the first time, they were both in their youth. That year, Kay was only 18 years old, and Elias was only 22 years old. They met at Neuschwanstein Castle. Kay was traveling during the holidays, and Elias was the host at that time, bringing two guests here to play.
Because he grew up in Bavaria since he was a child, Neuschwanstein Castle already existed like a back garden for Elias. After finishing his tour guide and sending a bodyguard to follow him, he simply went to the open-air garden in the middle of Swan Castle, where he was going to wait for the two guests to finish their tour.
It was here that Elias met a girl, wearing a white shirt and denim shorts, sitting at the bottom of the long stone steps, lowering her head and rubbing her ankles, muttering something, as if she was Complaining about his luck.
Hearing her indignant tone, Elias smiled for some reason.He, who was strict since he was a child, actually walked up to the girl and sat on the stone steps, asking her what was wrong.
The girl raised her head and looked at Elias with some surprise and curiosity, and then he was attracted by her beautiful blue eyes, and the girl was also attracted by Elias' beautiful blond hair.
The two young people also had nothing to do, so they simply sat together and started talking, although the girl could only speak a few words of German, and sometimes her grammar was messy, although Elias's English, how to say He also had a lingering German accent, but the two had a pleasant conversation, so she knew his name was Elias, and he knew her name was Kay.
There is a vitality in Kay, which is exactly what Elias lacks. This vitality makes Elias yearn for and envy, so that that day, after the guests finished their tour, Elias insisted on sending him Kay, who had twisted her foot, went back to the hotel where she stayed and made an appointment with her to take her on a tour in Bavaria the next day.
In the following days, Elias took Kay to play all the fun places in Bavaria. When he was with Kay, he was always very happy, and the smile on his face was more than usual a lot of.
When he was with Kay, no one asked him to eat or sleep, he could laugh, drink, make faces or curse.
In such a wanton and joyful interaction, a month passed like this. On this day, Kay told him that she was leaving Bavaria and Germany.
Elias was in a daze at the time, and the panic and reluctance in his heart almost overwhelmed him, so he was impulsive for himself for the first and last time in his life.
He knelt down on one knee in front of her and said to her: "Kay, I love you, please stay and marry me." Kay cried with joy, tears flowed out all at once, and the whole person stopped crying Couldn't stop, then nodded violently, wiping away tears.
He jumped up from the ground in ecstasy, took Kay to the nearest jewelry store and bought a wedding ring, and immediately put it on for her, holding her hand and never wanting to let go.
If this is a fairy tale, then here is the most perfect ending, but unfortunately, this is not a fairy tale, or, this is actually the hidden ending of every fairy tale, no one will tell you, in gray After the girl and the prince got married, you will never know what their life is like. Maybe the ending of this story is not happy.
Dazzled by love, the two married impulsively. After marriage, they gradually discovered that their married life was actually different from what they had imagined.
The Kay family is just an ordinary middle-class family in England, but Elias has a very different identity from Kay.During the more than a month of their acquaintance, Kay only knew his name was Elias, and never asked him what his last name was.
It wasn't until the time of the notarized marriage that Kay knew that his full name was: Elias von Richthofen [Note 4], and his ancestors were of the same clan as the famous "Red Baron" in history. Note 5], that is to say, Elias is a veritable noble queen.
Different from the aristocracy in countries such as Britain and France, which became weaker and weaker after entering modern society, even though Germany abolished the privileges of the aristocracy after World War I, for various reasons, the aristocracy in Germany still controlled the state power for a long time and occupied administrative power. , key positions in the diplomatic and military spheres. 【Note 6】
Although the Elias family is no longer an aristocrat with a title, their family is still prominent, and those family inheritances have not been lost because of this. The strength of character that originated from the bones is still engraved in the blood of the family.
After getting married, the couple went back to London together and lived with Kay's parents for a few days. Then Kay followed Elias back to Bavaria and lived in the place where Elias lived since he was a child, the old castle .
The castle at that time had not yet been renovated, and most of it retained the style of the last century. In other words, for Kay, who was accustomed to modern urban life, she seemed to have returned to the past few decades overnight. forward.
After marriage, Elias began to slowly take over the family business under his father's instructions, and he spent less time with Kay all day, and Kay spent more time with Elias' mother, Edra together.
Edra is a dignified woman, she will not insult Kay recklessly, even though she is not satisfied with this daughter-in-law from England in her heart, she still gets along with Kay in harmony and harmony.
Although Edra is not harsh, Kay is still uncomfortable and stressed when staying with her. For example, when mother-in-law and daughter-in-law drink tea together, every time Kay sees Edra’s graceful movements, Kay will feel I even forgot how to hold the teacup.
Finally, less than a year into their marriage, Kay finally couldn't bear this kind of life anymore, and she began to complain more and more to Elias, and they argued endlessly over trivial matters.
Elias didn't know why Kay, who was so energetic and smiling so brightly before marriage, became so sharp and restless, and Kay also couldn't understand why Elias, who was originally gentle and tolerant towards him, became more and more uneasy. The more busy and unfamiliar.
After a fierce quarrel, they fell into a cold war. Because the German marriage law stipulates that a couple cannot apply for divorce if they have been separated for less than one year [Note 7], so Kay proposed that he should return to the UK, and they would go for a divorce one year later.
Because Kay's attitude is too firm, so Elias can only agree, and put some money enough for Kay's life into Kay's bank account every month, so that she can live comfortably even if she doesn't work, And he also felt that maybe after the separation, if everyone calmed down, they would regain their old friendship and heal the rift in their marriage.
It's a pity that he underestimated Kay's resistance and fear of their married life after all. A year later, Kay still insisted on divorce, and Elias reluctantly went through the divorce procedures with her. To ask Elias for a penny, the only request is that everyone will stop disturbing each other's lives in the future.
Two years after divorcing Kay, under the arrangement of his parents, Elias married Frieda, a daughter of an aristocratic family. In other words, Kay's departure has already taken Elias' love away, so it doesn't matter to him who he marries now.
Frieda was a good choice for a wife, and Elias could safely leave the family affairs to her. They also had a child, a lovely blond boy.
It's a pity that this child was never destined for the couple after all. He was taken away by an illness before his second birthday. Since then, Elias and Frieda have never had children.
In the bottom of Elias' heart, Kay still didn't leave, so every year when the day they met, Elias would go to Neuschwanstein Castle once and stay there for most of the day.
If Elias hadn't been moved by a girl's words at Neuschwanstein Castle that time, and had moved his mind to investigate Kai, he would never have known until today that he had a daughter, and at that time, they even She hasn't divorced yet, but Kay cruelly abandoned that child.
In a blink of an eye, almost 21 years have passed. His daughter is already a big girl now. What will she look like?Will he also have blond hair like himself?Will he inherit Kay's dimples?How is she?
Ever since he read the survey data, every time he thought about it, Elias felt his heart ache. He looked at the embarrassed Kai who was crying in front of him at this moment, and said in a hoarse voice : "Why? Kay? Even if you hate me, you don't need to implicate the child! The child is innocent!"
Kay cried and said: "I have no choice, I really can't stand it, I really couldn't stand it at that time..." She finally told Elias intermittently about the dusty past.
They had just separated at that time. After Kay returned to the UK, she did not return to her parents' house. She rented an apartment and lived in it. During that time, she lived in a muddle, the days and the moon turned upside down, and sometimes she cried to sleep Then, woke up crying again in sleep.
More than two months later, she began to vomit frequently. Only then did she realize that her menstrual period seemed to have been delayed for a long time. Feeling anxious, she went to the hospital for an examination. The doctor confirmed her guess that she was indeed pregnant. .
She went back to the apartment in a daze, sat in the empty room, clutched her belly and cried loudly. This child came too suddenly and at the wrong time.
Kay is a Christian, she couldn't have an abortion, she had to give birth to this child, she hired a nurse for herself who was specialized in taking care of pregnant women, and waited for the birth of the child in her belly with complicated emotions in the rented apartment.
At last, after a long pregnancy and a painful birth, her child came into the world, a girl whose tiny hand couldn't even hold her thumb, and she saw herself in the hospital nursery At this time, she and Elias have been separated for a full year.
As soon as Kay saw her daughter, one thought swirled in her mind: She must not let Elias know of the existence of this child.Based on what Kay knew about Elias, she was very sure that if Elias knew, he would definitely not agree to the divorce [Note 8].
And she was only 20 years old, she didn't want to spend the rest of her life in that gloomy old castle!She didn't want to worry about whether her movements would be too big even when she was eating, and she didn't want to face Edra, who didn't say anything, but whose eyes were full of negation and contempt all day long.
She doesn't want this, she is still so young, her life shouldn't be like this!She shouldn't have been so depressed and miserable!The deep resistance and aversion to the life in the castle drove Kay, who was no longer rational, to make a crazy decision.
Shortly after she was discharged from the hospital, the caregiver who took care of her during her pregnancy also left. Kay got up before dawn that day. She wrapped her daughter in thick clothes and drove her away from home. The house of that family is the largest in the entire block, Kay thought, this family must be able to shoulder the life of their daughter.
She had been hiding in a nearby alley until she saw the door of the house opened, and a woman with a soft face came out, found her daughter, and carried her into the house. Kay finally relaxed.
With tears in her eyes, she took one last look at the family, got into the car, and left there.Within a few days, she returned to Germany, divorced Elias, and made Elias promise not to bother her, and then returned to England.
She moved out of central London to Greenwich, where she started a new life.
When talking about this, Kay's voice was hoarse from crying, and Elias' hand holding the cane was already bruised, and he said angrily: "Kay, how can you be so selfish?! Then It's your daughter! It's our daughter! How can you abandon her?!"
Kay just cried and couldn't say anything, because she was speechless, Elias said angrily, "Well, you don't want a daughter as a mother, but I want a daughter! Tell me you left her in the Where is it? I want to find her, I must find my daughter! Kay, you are not worthy of being a mother! Your God will not forgive you!"
The author has something to say: Some relatives and friends of readers reminded me that there are already pirated articles on the Internet, and they are concerned about what anti-theft method I plan to adopt.To be honest, I have been in *Bei for so many years, and I have never done anything about anti-theft.
On the one hand, it’s because I’m usually busy and don’t have much energy, and occasionally I’m a little lazy and afraid of trouble. On the other hand, I have also been a reader myself, and I know that the anti-theft chapter is sometimes a trouble for readers, because I can’t read it first. It takes a while to see the text, and sometimes it is fooled by the anti-theft badge.The only thing I can do is to attach the welfare map and data map for everyone, so as to give those who support the original version a better reading experience.
To be honest, the intellectual property supervision mechanism of the Celestial Dynasty has always been so deformed and weak. Writing articles under such circumstances requires a good attitude. I can only tell myself that those who really support me and respect me, He would be willing to support the original version, and those who ran after the pirated texts, Mou Bei could only smile.
Of course, passing by with a smile does not mean connivance. Out of respect and protection for the support of genuine parents, I still want to solemnly declare here that this article is exclusively published on *, and other websites are reproduced without permission. Please withdraw it automatically. Go on, don't take other people's silence as acquiescence.Eight Zero Bookstore, Wangyou Novel Network, and Nine-headed Bird Bookstore, please consciously click to withdraw the article, show a little respect to others, and save some face for yourself.
OK, this is over, let's talk about this chapter.Regarding Kay's move to abandon Leia, I can only say that she is absolutely wrong from an ethical point of view, but it is not unreasonable to explain it from a psychological and logical point of view.
Of course, I have no intention of defending her, just stating a certain fact.In fact, such similar examples are not uncommon in many countries. Not all mothers are selfless, and not all mothers are strong because they are mothers.This chapter is a bit realistic and a bit heavy, but it has to be written, and it is very important for the content of this article.
Next update, old rules, before 9:[-] tomorrow night.
After talking about so many serious things, let’s take it a little easier. Attached is a handsome photo of Mr. Dou Sen, looking at the long legs that occupy a lot of pictures ╮(╯▽╰)╭:
[Note 1]: Greenwich (Greenwich) is located in a town in the southeast of London, which belongs to the Greater London area.This is the starting point of the Earth's longitude.Attach a picture, this large area is the Greater London area, and the place circled in red is Greenwich:
【Note 2】: The prime meridian is the zero degree meridian.It is not formed naturally, but artificially assumed. On June 1884, 6, at the International Conference on Longitude held in Washington, DC, it was officially determined that the meridian passing through the Greenwich Observatory in London, England, was the global zero-degree meridian, which was recognized as the starting line for calculating longitude in the world.Do you feel that June 26th is very familiar? There is nothing wrong with it. This is Leia’s birthday, so do you understand why I chose Greenwich? ╮(╯▽╰)╭.
[Note 3]: In 1767 AD, after decades of research, the Royal Astronomers in Greenwich found out the exact position and movement laws of the main celestial bodies, and made the world's first chart.
[Note 4]: Elias Von Richthofen (Elias Von Richthofen), among them, Elias means "prophet" in Hebrew, which is equivalent to Elijah (Elijah).The latter appeared in the Bible and was a prophet in the Bible.In the ancient Middle Ages, German nobles usually added "von" (von) or "chu" (zu) to their names to distinguish them from the general class, and their surnames were often the names of their castles or estates.Of course, there are also some non-noble family names with "Feng", and the "Feng" in their names is to indicate their earliest ancestral origin.
[Note 5]: The Red Baron, Manfred von Richthofen, is a well-known pilot in German history, known as the ace of trumps, and one of the most famous air heroes in the history of human air combat one.He was the commander of the fighter wing and the fighter ace who shot down the most enemy planes in World War I, shooting down as many as 80 enemy planes.He was born in a Prussian noble family with an older sister and two younger brothers.He was only 25 years old when he died.Attached is a photo of the Red Baron:
[Note 6]: The fact that German nobles still hold important positions is not a fiction, it is a real situation.I remember that I once read a paper devoted to the German nobility, which elaborated and analyzed this issue.I have limited free time recently, and I can’t find this paper for a while. After I finish my busy days, I will find time to find this paper for everyone, and I will attach a link to you when the time comes.
[Note 7]: According to the researched information, the German Divorce Law does not recognize divorce by agreement, and the law stipulates that "divorce can only be obtained after the application of one or both parties to the marriage and the judgment of the court. The marriage will be dissolved when the judgment becomes legally effective." German divorce law pursues "fractureism", that is, the only ground for requesting divorce is the breakdown of marriage.In order to prevent the divorce petitioner from abusing the fracturing doctrine and harming the interests of minor children or the other spouse, the law makes three exceptions to the "fracturing doctrine" divorce system:
First, divorce is not allowed in principle if the parties to the marriage have been separated for less than one year.
Second, although the marriage has broken down, but for special reasons, it is necessary to maintain the marriage in order to protect the interests of the minor children arising from the marriage, the divorce shall not be allowed.
Third, although the marriage has broken down, but due to special circumstances, the divorce is too harsh on the spouse who opposes the divorce, and if it is necessary to maintain the marriage due to the interests of the divorce requester, the divorce shall not be allowed.
[Note 8]: As mentioned in Note 7, for the protection of the interests of the minor children, if Elias knows the existence of Leia, he can use his power to make Kay divorce , and this is absolutely unacceptable to Kay, who has difficulty adapting to life in the castle, so she cannot let Elias know of Leia's existence.
The gentleman gave a "hmm", and the black-clothed bodyguard on the passenger seat quickly got out of the car, opened the door for him, and carefully helped the man get out of the car.After getting out of the car, the middle-aged gentleman quickly stood still. He leaned on his cane in one hand, put on his hat in the other hand, and looked around, looking at this place.
This is Greenwich [Note 1] in southeast London, on the south bank of the Thames.Here is the Prime Meridian [Note 2], and it is also the starting point for the calculation of time and geographic longitude in the world.

How could she not remember?How could she not remember?That was the pain in her heart that could never heal, it was the greatest sin of her life, it was the torment of her whole life!She is guilty, she is a sinner!

In the bottom of Elias' heart, Kay still didn't leave, so every year when the day they met, Elias would go to Neuschwanstein Castle once and stay there for most of the day.
If Elias hadn't been moved by a girl's words at Neuschwanstein Castle that time, and had moved his mind to investigate Kai, he would never have known until today that he had a daughter, and at that time, they even She hasn't divorced yet, but Kay cruelly abandoned that child.
In a blink of an eye, almost 21 years have passed. His daughter is already a big girl now. What will she look like?Will he also have blond hair like himself?Will he inherit Kay's dimples?How is she?
Ever since he read the survey data, every time he thought about it, Elias felt his heart ache. He looked at the embarrassed Kai who was crying in front of him at this moment, and said in a hoarse voice : "Why? Kay? Even if you hate me, you don't need to implicate the child! The child is innocent!"
Kay cried and said: "I have no choice, I really can't stand it, I really couldn't stand it at that time..." She finally told Elias intermittently about the dusty past.
They had just separated at that time. After Kay returned to the UK, she did not return to her parents' house. She rented an apartment and lived in it. During that time, she lived in a muddle, the days and the moon turned upside down, and sometimes she cried to sleep Then, woke up crying again in sleep.
More than two months later, she began to vomit frequently. Only then did she realize that her menstrual period seemed to have been delayed for a long time. Feeling anxious, she went to the hospital for an examination. The doctor confirmed her guess that she was indeed pregnant. .
She went back to the apartment in a daze, sat in the empty room, clutched her belly and cried loudly. This child came too suddenly and at the wrong time.
Kay is a Christian, she couldn't have an abortion, she had to give birth to this child, she hired a nurse for herself who was specialized in taking care of pregnant women, and waited for the birth of the child in her belly with complicated emotions in the rented apartment.
At last, after a long pregnancy and a painful birth, her child came into the world, a girl whose tiny hand couldn't even hold her thumb, and she saw herself in the hospital nursery At this time, she and Elias have been separated for a full year.
As soon as Kay saw her daughter, one thought swirled in her mind: She must not let Elias know of the existence of this child.Based on what Kay knew about Elias, she was very sure that if Elias knew, he would definitely not agree to the divorce [Note 8].
And she was only 20 years old, she didn't want to spend the rest of her life in that gloomy old castle!She didn't want to worry about whether her movements would be too big even when she was eating, and she didn't want to face Edra, who didn't say anything, but whose eyes were full of negation and contempt all day long.
She doesn't want this, she is still so young, her life shouldn't be like this!She shouldn't have been so depressed and miserable!The deep resistance and aversion to the life in the castle drove Kay, who was no longer rational, to make a crazy decision.
Shortly after she was discharged from the hospital, the caregiver who took care of her during her pregnancy also left. Kay got up before dawn that day. She wrapped her daughter in thick clothes and drove her away from home. The house of that family is the largest in the entire block, Kay thought, this family must be able to shoulder the life of their daughter.
She had been hiding in a nearby alley until she saw the door of the house opened, and a woman with a soft face came out, found her daughter, and carried her into the house. Kay finally relaxed.
With tears in her eyes, she took one last look at the family, got into the car, and left there.Within a few days, she returned to Germany, divorced Elias, and made Elias promise not to bother her, and then returned to England.
She moved out of central London to Greenwich, where she started a new life.
When talking about this, Kay's voice was hoarse from crying, and Elias' hand holding the cane was already bruised, and he said angrily: "Kay, how can you be so selfish?! Then It's your daughter! It's our daughter! How can you abandon her?!"
Kay just cried and couldn't say anything, because she was speechless, Elias said angrily, "Well, you don't want a daughter as a mother, but I want a daughter! Tell me you left her in the Where is it? I want to find her, I must find my daughter! Kay, you are not worthy of being a mother! Your God will not forgive you!"
The author has something to say: Some relatives and friends of readers reminded me that there are already pirated articles on the Internet, and they are concerned about what anti-theft method I plan to adopt.To be honest, I have been in *Bei for so many years, and I have never done anything about anti-theft.
On the one hand, it’s because I’m usually busy and don’t have much energy, and occasionally I’m a little lazy and afraid of trouble. On the other hand, I have also been a reader myself, and I know that the anti-theft chapter is sometimes a trouble for readers, because I can’t read it first. It takes a while to see the text, and sometimes it is fooled by the anti-theft badge.The only thing I can do is to attach the welfare map and data map for everyone, so as to give those who support the original version a better reading experience.
To be honest, the intellectual property supervision mechanism of the Celestial Dynasty has always been so deformed and weak. Writing articles under such circumstances requires a good attitude. I can only tell myself that those who really support me and respect me, He would be willing to support the original version, and those who ran after the pirated texts, Mou Bei could only smile.
Of course, passing by with a smile does not mean connivance. Out of respect and protection for the support of genuine parents, I still want to solemnly declare here that this article is exclusively published on *, and other websites are reproduced without permission. Please withdraw it automatically. Go on, don't take other people's silence as acquiescence.Eight Zero Bookstore, Wangyou Novel Network, and Nine-headed Bird Bookstore, please consciously click to withdraw the article, show a little respect to others, and save some face for yourself.
OK, this is over, let's talk about this chapter.Regarding Kay's move to abandon Leia, I can only say that she is absolutely wrong from an ethical point of view, but it is not unreasonable to explain it from a psychological and logical point of view.
Of course, I have no intention of defending her, just stating a certain fact.In fact, such similar examples are not uncommon in many countries. Not all mothers are selfless, and not all mothers are strong because they are mothers.This chapter is a bit realistic and a bit heavy, but it has to be written, and it is very important for the content of this article.
Next update, old rules, before 9:[-] tomorrow night.
After talking about so many serious things, let’s take it a little easier. Attached is a handsome photo of Mr. Dou Sen, looking at the long legs that occupy a lot of pictures ╮(╯▽╰)╭:
[Note 1]: Greenwich (Greenwich) is located in a town in the southeast of London, which belongs to the Greater London area.This is the starting point of the Earth's longitude.Attach a picture, this large area is the Greater London area, and the place circled in red is Greenwich:
【Note 2】: The prime meridian is the zero degree meridian.It is not formed naturally, but artificially assumed. On June 1884, 6, at the International Conference on Longitude held in Washington, DC, it was officially determined that the meridian passing through the Greenwich Observatory in London, England, was the global zero-degree meridian, which was recognized as the starting line for calculating longitude in the world.Do you feel that June 26th is very familiar? There is nothing wrong with it. This is Leia’s birthday, so do you understand why I chose Greenwich? ╮(╯▽╰)╭.
[Note 3]: In 1767 AD, after decades of research, the Royal Astronomers in Greenwich found out the exact position and movement laws of the main celestial bodies, and made the world's first chart.
[Note 4]: Elias Von Richthofen (Elias Von Richthofen), among them, Elias means "prophet" in Hebrew, which is equivalent to Elijah (Elijah).The latter appeared in the Bible and was a prophet in the Bible.In the ancient Middle Ages, German nobles usually added "von" (von) or "chu" (zu) to their names to distinguish them from the general class, and their surnames were often the names of their castles or estates.Of course, there are also some non-noble family names with "Feng", and the "Feng" in their names is to indicate their earliest ancestral origin.
[Note 5]: The Red Baron, Manfred von Richthofen, is a well-known pilot in German history, known as the ace of trumps, and one of the most famous air heroes in the history of human air combat one.He was the commander of the fighter wing and the fighter ace who shot down the most enemy planes in World War I, shooting down as many as 80 enemy planes.He was born in a Prussian noble family with an older sister and two younger brothers.He was only 25 years old when he died.Attached is a photo of the Red Baron:
[Note 6]: The fact that German nobles still hold important positions is not a fiction, it is a real situation.I remember that I once read a paper devoted to the German nobility, which elaborated and analyzed this issue.I have limited free time recently, and I can’t find this paper for a while. After I finish my busy days, I will find time to find this paper for everyone, and I will attach a link to you when the time comes.
[Note 7]: According to the researched information, the German Divorce Law does not recognize divorce by agreement, and the law stipulates that "divorce can only be obtained after the application of one or both parties to the marriage and the judgment of the court. The marriage will be dissolved when the judgment becomes legally effective." German divorce law pursues "fractureism", that is, the only ground for requesting divorce is the breakdown of marriage.In order to prevent the divorce petitioner from abusing the fracturing doctrine and harming the interests of minor children or the other spouse, the law makes three exceptions to the "fracturing doctrine" divorce system:
First, divorce is not allowed in principle if the parties to the marriage have been separated for less than one year.
Second, although the marriage has broken down, but for special reasons, it is necessary to maintain the marriage in order to protect the interests of the minor children arising from the marriage, the divorce shall not be allowed.
Third, although the marriage has broken down, but due to special circumstances, the divorce is too harsh on the spouse who opposes the divorce, and if it is necessary to maintain the marriage due to the interests of the divorce requester, the divorce shall not be allowed.
[Note 8]: As mentioned in Note 7, for the protection of the interests of the minor children, if Elias knows the existence of Leia, he can use his power to make Kay divorce , and this is absolutely unacceptable to Kay, who has difficulty adapting to life in the castle, so she cannot let Elias know of Leia's existence.
