Principality of Aiken, Grand Duke's Mansion

"Your Majesty, it's not that I don't want to. But your proposal is to allow the church to intervene in the country's education."

"Is it possible that you are willing that none of your people know our language, but are very familiar with the language of the dark elves in the northeast? At least the noble academy I proposed is good for everyone."

As time has passed for a hundred years, the current emperor of the Kahn Empire has been using Kahn recently this year. It is a rare occasion for him to bring thousands of troops to visit the Principality of Aiken in person for the first time, which his fathers and ancestors did not like very much.

However, just as he expected, the Principality of Aiken, which has the most craftsmen and knows how to forge thousands of steel knives in batches within a month, has the best development of handicraft industry among the thirteen countries that were split from the Kahn Empire. .

For this reason, the little emperor, Tony van Kahn, hopes that the Principality of Aikern will not become independent. Especially his current queen, the orphan of Archduke Sidney Ayken.

Although she is not a biological daughter but a niece, Sidney inherited the title of her eldest brother who unfortunately suffered an accident. Therefore, in fact, the little emperor Tony married the daughter of the Grand Duke. In terms of the weight of his words, the little emperor still had certain advantages.

"The problem is that your aristocratic college is located in the city of Gualeguechu, and requires the aristocratic children of our principality to go there to study. I'm not sure whether the church will take this opportunity to teach some inappropriate things to the aristocratic children of the principality."

"Well……"

"Is it okay for civilians?"

"well?"

"Your Majesty, you heard that right, a son of commoner origin."

Obviously, compared to his easy-to-talk eldest brother, the current Duke of Arcane, Sidney Arcane, is someone who clearly dislikes the Empire and the Ascetic Church. Emperor Tony also had a headache for this. After all, this Grand Duke was a maverick among the Thirteen Kingdoms.

Just for an army to be fully equipped with crossbows, the armies of the other twelve countries are completely inferior.

The reason is that the church that banned crossbows a hundred years ago offended Archduke Aiken, who had already ordered the army to equip the army with crossbows. So much so that Archduke Aeken was so angry that he was trembling with anger and determined to continue learning the knowledge from the dark elves.

As a result, to this day, the entire army of the Principality of Aiken is equipped with the most advanced 30-grade steel weapons among the thirteen countries. Moreover, in terms of food, the Principality of Aiken began to use chopsticks and spoons to eat. This is completely contrary to the ascetic church's teaching that eating with hands is the noblest behavior.

As for the civilians Sidney said, what he meant was simple. That is, he simply does not want the nobles in his country to be influenced too much by the church. To a certain extent, this archduke, like his fathers and ancestors, wishes to destroy the ascetic church.

However, he also knew that attacking the Ascetic Church was equivalent to going to war with the Twelve Kingdoms. The Principality of Aiken only has an army of 160,000 people until now, and various types of monsters in its country are insurmountable. Unable to declare war, and knowing that the combined military strength of the other twelve countries was six times its own, the Principality of Aiken married a princess from the Duke's Palace into the palace many years ago to ease the relationship between the parties.

And in order to prevent the principality of Aiken from establishing a church privately, he completely fell into the arms of the dark elves with ulterior motives. The Ascetic Church and the Kahn royal family also began to open up a right to the Principality of Aiken eighty years ago, which was to allow private schools in the country. But there is also a condition here, that is, Aiken must use Castellano, the only official language of the Kahn Empire, as its only official language to maintain consistency with the other twelve countries.

"Civilian? You..."

"What does it matter? Nobles... Huh! I know that the nobles of the other twelve countries are more reluctant to stay with the common people, but their minds can't think about how their enjoyment will come from without the common people working for them. Come? Just like myself, my wife is from a civilian background. Of course, I will not embarrass Your Majesty. At least the civilian children I sent have received rewards at home. "

Compared with the immovable aristocratic families of the other twelve countries, due to the usurpation of power by the Aiken family more than a hundred years ago, the aristocratic inheritance in the Principality of Aiken is obviously inferior to that of other countries. But precisely because of this, most of the current nobles in the Principality of Aiken are qualified to be named nobles through the accumulation of military merit.

Even different from the outside world, the laws of the Principality of Aiken are relatively strict, and it is very easy for a noble's status to be directly deprived of his status due to crime.

In this way, Emperor Tony could also imagine that the separation tendency of the Principality of Aiken, whose national power had obviously increased, was beginning to emerge. Therefore, he had to use his own diplomatic means to suppress a principality that had always wanted to establish another imperial dynasty.

"Then...ok! I agree."

After finally persuading the Grand Duke Sidney Arcane, Emperor Tony returned to his room and couldn't help complaining to his queen.

"Your Majesty, there is no way around this. You also know the history of the Aiken family, and you are even more aware of the conflict between the Aiken family and the Ascetic Church."

As his queen said, the Akern family was not originally a noble family, but a kind of powerful official. A hundred years ago, the empire was in civil strife, and the Akern family took the opportunity to rise. First, they slaughtered the original duke's family, and then they put the title of duke on their heads by forcing the branch of the Ascetic Church, which was under siege by zombies at the time.

As a result, the Principality of Akern completed the change of dynasty without the consent of anyone in the central empire, and the repentant imperial family had no choice. After all, the Kahn Empire had been divided into nine countries at that time, and the sovereign Emperor Luqman was facing the military invasion of eight countries in the north where the imperial city of Gualegu Echu was located.

Anyway, in the end, Emperor Luqman, who repelled these enemies, was unwilling at the age of 46, and died of anger (dying of anger), and the reality of the empire being divided into thirteen countries could no longer be changed.

The reason is that the strength of the heroes is really not weak. The lords or leaders who can establish a country are not ordinary characters.

"Why can't the Aken family be like the others..."

"Your Majesty, compared to the Principality of Aken, our six northern kingdoms are more deadly."

"Don't mention it. If it weren't for these guys who used to be bandits, mountain bandits and river pirates, how could the empire become so miserable now?"
