The Amber Sword: Act 319 Departing from the past
Brando absentmindedly came over, he stared at the natural orbs of soft light and Xia scattered in his hands, turned his head, and now Delphine eyes already fell on his face.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing, Lord Thane." Delphine shook her head slightly, and then she turned her eyes away, but her loneliness was still clearly visible between her eyebrows.
Brando can't help but sigh. Although this prime minister's daughter's idea is extreme, she is not a victim herself. Moreover, although she has planned many things behind her, but there are not many people who are really injured as a result. Compared with the coldness of The Silver Queen, which has caused countless people to fall into war and disaster, it is better to say that it is just a wayward Just paranoid.
Seriously speaking, it's only Romaine who really blame her. But what happened to Miss merchant is not necessarily inevitable. In fact, Brando knows very well. How can Dragon of Twilight's plans since several times be changed by a mere mortal?
In fact, he knew all of this in his heart, but when Delphine brought it up again in a contemptuous tone, he still involuntarily developed an angry mood.
"Really okay?" Brando asked, "Should you take a break?"
"No need," Delphine hesitated for a moment: "Just a dream."
"A dream?"
"Eun Meng has learned something when she was a child." She smiled reluctantly, and her eyes were full of remembrance: "Lord Thane, I have lived in Loinburg until the age of five, where I am near the south of Vanquer, is My father ’s territory. When I was young, I was a child. I had a group of friends. Most of them were orphans adopted by the Silver Lily Orphanage. Did you know that Silver Lily would? "
Brando is slightly surprised: "commoner?"
Delphine nodded.
"Surprised? I think the damsel of a noble family, like me, will be handed over and mixed with commoner?"
"It's a bit unseen." Brando replied, of course he knew that Kirrlutz Empire level was strict, and nobles rarely even dealt with commoner. Not to mention making friends.
noble's descendants are more strict in family education. They are often taught by an excellent woman before they reach adulthood, let alone commoner's children, not to mention commoner. That is, ordinary small nobles rarely enter their "Fairy Eyes".
In fact, just look at the first time he dealt with Fina, you will know how proud and arrogant the Little Princess is.
If it is someone else, Brando may still be able to believe a little bit, but when he looked at Delphine, how could he not see that this prime minister's daughter who did everything with the strict noble etiquette would be such a traitor.
"Oh. If my father and grandfather knew about this, I'm afraid they would be thunderous."
"I'm afraid it's not as simple as the Great Thunder." Brando thought, what kind of family is the Nederhoven family in the empire? What is the status of the old prime minister Nederhoven in the empire? To let him know that the one's own's granddaughter, the eldest daughter of the family, and a group of dirty poor boys all day long, I'm afraid that the Nederhoven family will have an earthquake.
He asked, "So you dreamed about what happened at that time?"
Brando never expected that the words he asked casually made Delphine absentmindedly cry, and he watched two lines of crystal tears roll down from prime minister's daughter's face.
Brando stunned immediately.
No matter how much damage and blows he has suffered since he saw this prime minister's daughter, even when she was almost disfigured by Long Yan that day, although she was hysterical, she never showed such an emotional runaway scene.
"German, Delphine Young Lady?"
"Lord Thane. Do you think someone who betrayed his beliefs and vows is really worth redemption?" Delphine asked suddenly.
"?"
"After my fifth birthday, I had to go to Mehotolfin. Before I left, I met my friends for the last time. I remember it was in a barn, and I swore to them everyone, one day I must Will come to see them and never forget the promise of one's own and the companions of one's own because of the change of one's own status.
"Like any tomboy, I punched with Rowan. Demi also gave me her favorite grass terrier doll," Delphine raised her fist tightly, Brando saw her 攥It must be white, and the nails are almost in the meat. I bleed: "However, I forgot everything, this shameful, femme fatale woman, forgot all the one's own vows, and forgot the one's own companions"
"Wait until she gets to Luo Yin again, there"
"The plague of Mantle Bay." Brando sighed slightly and understood everything.
That was a riot born in First Era yuan in 358. Thirty-seven years after the end of the second Holy War in Year of Gathering Star, and eighteen years after the major cleansing in the East Metz area, droughts and locust plagues continued to occur in the Mantle Bay and surrounding areas. However, the idea of the empire intensified according to the newly issued law For taxes in the area. In the spring of the following year, under the encouragement of dissatisfied pagans remaining after the Great Purge, large-scale homeless riots broke out in Lowin, Bangalore, and Karas.
However, the riot quickly attracted the double suppression of the empire and Holy Cathedral of Fire. According to historical records, after the suppression, blood flowed into these areas after the suppression, and the countryside has since become a wilderness and uninhabited, and it was gradually restored before and after the column. **** off.
But whose fault is it?
Brando thought.
A child is naturally easy to leave things behind, and when one day she remembers one's own's promise once again, by the time she was born as a child, she was already beyond recognition.
"Are you dreaming about the scenes of the past?" Brando asked.
Delphine gently breathed in, suddenly silent.
She wiped her tears silently, and finally managed to regain control of the one's own mood. She replied lightly: "First Era 279, the year of Sanho, the Empire promulgated a law Helostoyo law, according to the law The tax reform reform was stipulated in the law, eliminating religious taxes and 13 other miscellaneous taxes for farmers in the empire's provinces.
"That is the follow-up to the reform of Jin Yaozhi's year," Brando looked at the girl and replied softly: "It was the reform presided over by your grandfather. In this reform, Holy Cathedral of Fire mainly deprived the farmers of their control and reduced their For the exploitation of farmers. Shortly after that, the empire entered a so-called twenty-year prosperous period, which was also the beginning of the glorious era. "
prime minister's daughter glanced at him raises head silently, and there was a little surprise in the purple eyes.
"First Era Yuan 331 years, my grandfather left the empire, because of the rebound of Holy Cathedral and the old noble forces, the Holosto method was abolished, but in the new French that was subsequently inherited, most of the provisions of the law were inherited . "
"That's because Her Majesty's foothold is not stable, and she doesn't want to see Holy Cathedral regain its strength. As far as I know, the new French is actually the product of the two parties' struggle and compromise." Brando groaned for a moment, with a little confusion in her heart, not understanding Why does Delphine suddenly say this.
"But the good times are not long. Her Majesty soon showed a strong side. With the support of Colossal Dragon and Buga people, she soon became plump and Holy Cathedral was no longer her opponent. At this time, she wanted to The noble political forces that are intertwined with the Empire have started. "
Delphine coldly replied: "She first supported the Palut family, and then promulgated the Tenipani French. This French was actually born to suppress the influence of my grandfather in the empire politics and suppress the Nederhoven family. "
Hearing this, Brando suddenly understood what she was going to say.
prime minister's daughter eye circles are reddish: "The following year, according to this French, the Empire imposed heavy taxes on Lowin, Bangalore, and Karas areas. This tax was nominally to supplement the expenses of the Imperial Navy ’s new docking ships, but the fact The above is His Majesty's suppression of the Nederhoven family and a sweet move to the Cecil family with a view to supporting his opinion in His Majesty's motion on the Palut family closure. "
"That year, the continuous drought and locust plague in the north of Mantle Bay should have reduced taxes in the region according to the tradition of the Empire. But Her Majesty ’s struggle with the old noble political forces is reaching a feverish stage, so she will never be here Compromised, after April, taxes in Louin, Bangalore, and Karas really increased "
Speaking quietly, Delphine was silent.
"In the spring of 359, I received a letter in Lazier. After that, I quietly went to Callas, but I didn't have time to see Rowan's last side. Their army was shot in the hills north of Mantle Bay. Liang Shu, when I arrived, they were surrounded by already by General Mangrove.
It was only after a long silence that the girl's voice sounded slightly calmly:
"After that, I vowed that one day, I would have to revive the reforms of the year of cash, so that I could repay the wish of my grandfather; I would re-implement the revoked Hlostoyo method of my grandfather, but to By doing so, I understand that I must reproduce the influence of the Nederhoven family on the empire during its heyday. "
Brando looks at her, but heavily sighs in her heart.
He never expected that the paranoid Young Lady would have such a lofty ideal. However, she chose a wrong path. The Nederhoven family was able to reach such a position in history, purely because of the game of royal power and religious power, he realized the supreme aspirations of monarchy for Grantotto Great Emperor. It became an indispensable important part of the three-legged empire of that era. Therefore, his life was a superhuman and prominent, and the Nederhoven family was also an empire.
