Chapter 0587 Landis*Ye
Miao Xu looked at Elizabeth, who was lying in her arms like a little woman in surprise. Her ultimate goal was to become the second queen in the history of the British Empire?
Although Miao Xu saw at first sight that Elizabeth was a woman with a strong desire for power, and she also knew that even if the third prince ascended the throne, she would rule the country behind the scenes. However, Miao Xu never expected that she wanted to become the queen, and her ambition was too great, right?
You know, there is actually not much difference in power between the queen and the empress and the curtain. With her control ability, Irving may be just a puppet emperor after becoming emperor. Of course, this is not helpful to her.
Elizabeth only controls everything behind the scenes, which is actually very simple. She just kills the eldest prince. However, she wants to be the queen, but she stands directly from the rear of the stage. It seems like a step away, but it is actually a world of difference. In the history of the British Empire, after the death of the first emperor, the new emperor ascended the throne, and the young new emperor was unable to handle the government affairs. There is a precedent for the new emperor's mother or elder to handle the government affairs. Many elders take this opportunity to control the government affairs and be an emperor behind the scenes. This is not a big deal at all. After all, the bloodline of the throne has not changed after all, and it is just a transition period. For those great nobles, this is not a big deal.
But the queen is different. This is equivalent to the entire peak tradition. Even if the status of women in the British Empire is not low, the man who has always held great power is still a man. How difficult it is for a woman to ascend to the throne and subdue all the heroes. Not to mention anything else, her father, Duke Lantis, would probably not agree.
The queen in the history of the British Empire was also the one who was in chaos at that time. All the men with royal blood flowing through the blood of the royal family died. She inherited the throne, and her children also followed Charlie's surname. After all, they were also from the Charlie family, but what about you? Are you just the wife of the Charlie family?
If you really become the queen, then is the royal family's surname Charlie or Landis?
"Do you think I'm crazy?" Elizabeth smiled slightly when she saw Miao Xu's shocked look.
Miao Xu nodded honestly, nonsense, except for the lunatic, who would have brought up such a crazy thing?
"Puchi..." Seeing Miao Xu really nodded honestly, Elizabeth actually burst out with a laugh: "How come you bad guy, why are you so honest? Yes, this idea is indeed crazy, but life is only so many years, how can you be worthy of yourself if you don't go crazy?" Elizabeth smiled sweetly, and this smile was extremely free and easy, and even Miao Xu's heart couldn't help but beat rapidly for a few times.
It is said that men who focus on something are charming, but when a woman gets crazy and wants to do something big, at least Elizabeth is charming at this moment.
What a woman thinks is not about taking care of her husband and children, not about luxury cars in villas, or about clothes, but about not just being so confused and wanting to do something that seems extremely crazy to the world. Not to mention anything else, this idea alone is enough to be admirable.
Compared with a grand ideal like Elizabeth, Miao Xu suddenly felt that his ideal was so small. A woman wanted to make achievements and be famous throughout the ages, and become a queen? But she just wanted to find a beautiful place, marry a few wives, sell a group of beautiful maids, and then take a group of dog legs to show off. How big is this gap?
No matter how much I admire her, Miao Xu could not really make her the queen of the British Empire. At that time, I would not be able to control her like Irving. No one knows that Miao Xu could not afford such a risk.
"Actually, you should understand that walking to the front and staying behind the stage seems simple, but it is actually more than a thousand times more difficult. Why is it difficult for you to do this?" Miao Xu sighed softly. For the sake of her serving him, he decided to persuade her.
"Haha, isn't life just seeking happiness in suffering? Besides, if you don't experience some pain, how can you understand the sweetness of success?" Elizabeth smiled sweetly.
"But this is not an ordinary pain, not just the British Empire, but even other empires, which country would allow a woman to sit on the throne? At that time, not only the civilians below, but also the nobles, even your sons and your father, will oppose it..." Miao Xu had a headache. Elizabeth was really beautiful at this moment, but this beauty was like a lychee that had been peeled off, and it would be broken with one stab.
"But aren't you not objecting?" Elizabeth smiled slightly, and looked at Miao Xu with grey eyes affectionately.
Miao Xu was speechless. He wanted to say that I was very opposed, but looking at Elizabeth's translucent gray eyes, he couldn't say this sentence.
"Do you know? Thousands of years ago, before the Age of Great Destruction, this land was always dominated by women..." Looking at Miao Xu's speechless look, Elizabeth smiled slightly.
"Huh?" Miao Xu was stunned. To be honest, the old man taught him martial arts and witchcraft, but he had never taught him much history. He really didn't know much about world history. As for the era of great destruction, he had heard of it, and he vaguely knew that the current world layout was established after a great destruction ten thousand years ago.
"Before the Age of Great Destruction, there was also a British kingdom in this land in the West. Their supreme ruler was the Queen. Why could women before the Age of Great Destruction become queens? I can't?" Elizabeth said softly, but her words were full of firmness.
"Before the Age of Great Destruction? How do you know?" Miao Xu was stunned. To be honest, since the Age of Great Destruction is called the Age of Great Destruction, then most of the things before the Age of Destruction must have been destroyed. What kind of civilization was it before the Age of Great Destruction? Few scholars today can thoroughly study it.
"Did you forget it? My name is Elizabeth Lantis. My family, but the ancient family that has continued from the Age of Great Destruction. It is no exaggeration to say that the Landis family is the oldest family in the entire West. Back then, my ancestors not only helped the Charles family establish the British Empire, but even the Roman Empire, the French Empire, and the German Empire, all of my Landis family predecessors. It is no exaggeration to say that the Landis family is the real first family in the West..." Elizabeth said proudly, and Miao Xu was shocked by such information.
The Landis family is so powerful? Then why doesn’t the Landis family build an empire on its own? It can even unify the entire Western continent?
"Do you think I'm talking big?" Elizabeth smiled slightly when she saw Miao Xu's shocked look.
"No, you don't need to lie to me, but I don't understand. Since that's the case, why don't your family create an empire by themselves?" Miao Xu asked his question honestly.
"Haha, according to the family's ancestral teachings, there are two reasons. One is that naturally I don't want to show up. The forces hidden in the dark are safer than the open. I think many big families in the Dragon Court do this, right?" Elizabeth said lightly.
Miao Xu nodded, isn't it? Although the supreme ruler of the Dragon Ting Republic is the head of state, the big families, even the Dragon Sect, Zen Sect, Taoist Sect, and other major forces also have shadows in it.
The real big forces have never been disdainful to put themselves in front.
"The second reason, haha, Su, if the various Western empires are really unified, who will have the greatest harm?"
"Longting..." Miao Xu had almost no need to think and blurted out that neither the Longting Republic nor the Longting Empire had suffered too much war. The most important reason was that the various empires in the West had been fighting endlessly, and the war rarely spread to the East.
But if the various Western empires are really unified, it will inevitably pose a huge threat to the Dragon Ting Republic. But what does this have to do with the Landis family? Why do they protect the Dragon Ting Republic?
"Yes, the ancestral teachings of our family say that human beings can survive that dark era of great destruction, relying entirely on the people in the East. It is precisely because of their great sacrifice that they have saved the seeds of humanity. It is said that before the great destruction, yellow people occupied more than one-third of the world's population. But now, besides the very few countries such as Dragon Court and Japan, where are there any yellow people? It is no exaggeration to say that the reason why Dragon Court has been able to proliferate and grow in the past few thousand years is that our Landis family has also paid a lot in it... Otherwise, relying on the ambitions of those guys, haha..." Elizabeth laughed.
Miao Xu chose to remain silent. Indeed, not to mention these Western empires, but to the Tsarist Russian Empire, thousands of years ago, the national strength was above the Dragon Court. If some Western empires at that time had not attacked Tsarist Russia from time to time, Tsarist Russia might have attacked Long Court long ago. With the national strength of Long Court at that time, it would have been difficult for the Tsarist Russian attack at that time, and it is very likely that the yellow race would have been exterminated.
"The ancestors say that we should repay kindness, but I don't think that's the case..." Seeing Miao Xu's deep thought, Elizabeth looked sarcastic.
"Why?" Miao Xu showed curiosity.
