The Rise of the European Emperor

In fact, Marin asked Gan Fushuizi to come to Aurich, not just for his own petty little thoughts. In addition, Marin also plans to have another son with Gan Fushuizi as a backup.

In this day and age, the child mortality rate is very high. It is not safe for a single liver to pay the letter chief. If Nobunaga died unfortunately and Marin couldn't get a spare tire, it would be a lot of fun. It is impossible for him to take a son who does not even have Japanese blood to be the shogun of Japan, and he will not be willing to support outsiders. Therefore, it is the safest way to have another son with Gan Fushuizi as a spare tire.

What's more, he even thought of the name of his son as a spare - Gan Fu Jiakang...

As for why it's not called Hideyoshi, it's because Marin doesn't like Toyotomi Hideyoshi. Moreover, Tokugawa Ieyasu is very similar to Sima Yi, he is the most able to fight, and belongs to the real winner.

In addition, in the Palace of Aurich, Gan Fu Nobunaga did not really come to play. When he gets older, he also needs to be taught by Marin. Of course, the education of Nobunaga, Marin will certainly not be like the education of Caesar.

Caesar is the main heir, and Marin's education to him is the overlord education that controls the overall situation. Including Robert and Ma Yun, as well as William and Nobunaga, Marin's education for them is the education of auxiliary princes. In the key part, Marin will deliberately keep a hand so that the younger brothers can become dependent on Caesar. In this way, it is conducive to the unity of brothers. Otherwise, if everyone wants to be the overlord, it will be a mess, and brothers will definitely fight each other in the future.

Now, in order to establish Caesar's absolute authority among the brothers, Marin directed Caesar to influence a group of brothers when he was free. For example, arrange for brothers to sit in rows and eat fruit. Don't look at this game as childish, but Caesar often plays with his brothers like this, which will make the younger brothers form a habit of listening to Caesar's arrangements.

Sometimes the power of habit can be terrifying. The strength of an army is inseparable from the habit of hard training at all times in peace. When the younger brothers get used to listening to the boss, Caesar, there will be fewer disputes in the future.

Of course, in this very naive game of "sit in a row and eat fruit and fruit", Caesar needs to be absolutely fair and act like he takes care of his younger brother, which is actually not easy.

Moreover, Marin also asked Caesar to tell stories to his younger brothers and sisters after distributing the fruits, mainly the stories in "Grimm's Fairy Tales" and "Andersen's Fairy Tales" that Marin told him before, as well as some of the stories in "A Thousand Zeros". The Fairy Tale of One Night.

The reason for this is not without purpose. Marin needs Caesar to practice his eloquence so that he can speak to his fiancée, Princess Margaret of England in the future. For this reason, Marin asked Caesar to tell stories in Frisian (English) with a London accent, in fact, to rehearse for the future to make the English princess happy.

Telling too many stories is also a kind of training for oral expression ability. Moreover, it helps to build a good relationship with younger siblings.

When the younger brothers and sisters are used to listening to the seat arranged by the eldest brother, and often listening to the good stories told by the elder brother, then they will have a kind of admiration and trust in Caesar. This kind of admiration and trust is very good for Caesar to unite them in the future.

Therefore, Marin only told Caesar the contents of the later "Grimm's Fairy Tales" and "Andersen's Fairy Tales", and then Caesar told his younger brothers and sisters. In this way, other children can also form a habit of relying on Caesar...

However, in this way, Caesar had to work harder. Every day, in addition to studying German, Latin, English and Chinese, as well as mathematics and other heavy courses (physical chemistry has not yet started), he also spends two or three hours coaxing his younger siblings, which is very tiring.

But fortunately, Caesar had suffered a serious mental blow from "losing his father" before, and his thinking was different from that of ordinary children. Therefore, he did not reject the tasks Marin arranged for him, but was very attentive.

Of course, in order to reduce the burden on Caesar, Marin did not let Caesar continue to study at 3 pm every day, but let Caesar take his younger brothers and sisters. However, unlike ordinary children, Kaiser does not have winter and summer vacations, and only one day off is Sunday every week. Generally, children who go to school not only have winter and summer vacations, but also have one and a half days of rest every week, which is similar to that of Marin when he was a child in his previous life.

In addition, Marin also significantly cut off the time of Caesar's court etiquette class. Originally, the children of the great nobles had to have several court etiquette classes every week, and to be strict, they even had to take etiquette classes every day.

But Marin didn't care much about this, and thought it would be enough to arrange one class a week. Is it interesting to emphasize this every day? Also a waste of time. Therefore, Marin cut off most of Caesar's court etiquette classes to reduce his burden. In fact, that's all court etiquette, one class a week is enough. It's a bit too much to emphasize every day, but it's not that I can't remember.

Except, of course, for one child, Mary, or Maria. She is Marin's only daughter, and Marin dotes on her very much. However, not too used to it. At least, in terms of court etiquette, Marin had much higher demands on little Mary than boys.

For boys, etiquette is not the most important thing, ability and knowledge are the most important. But for girls, even modern girls, ability and knowledge are not the most important, but etiquette and self-cultivation are more important. Unless, this girl was born in a poor family and needs to work hard for her livelihood, so she will give priority to learning skills...

For girls, an elegant lady who understands etiquette is far more attractive than a dull female schoolmaster...

Therefore, when the boys of the Hoffman family were working hard to learn knowledge and skills, little Mary, in addition to learning some basic knowledge, either learned etiquette or art. In short, girls should be more elegant, and it is always right to put a few halos on their bodies...

...

At the beginning of December 1514, Felice gave birth again... a boy was born...

In the spring, Felice realized that she was pregnant, and asked Marin for the title of "Count of Uruguay" for the child. Unexpectedly, she really gave birth to a boy.

Although a large area of ​​territory has to be divided, Marin is still very happy. Anyway, Uruguay has not been developed yet, which is equivalent to an unowned wasteland (the local Indians protested strongly - am I not a human?). Moreover, it is still far away from the mainland, so it is not a pity to give it to Felice's newly born son.

As for the name of the newborn son, Marin originally wanted to choose one of the bad street names such as John, Charlie, Edward, and Henry.

But Felice believes that since her son plans to recruit Italians to develop Uruguay in the future, it is better to choose an Italianized name, which will be easier for those Italian immigrants to accept. Then Felice suggested the name Augustus...

Marin's face suddenly changed - this is the title of the first emperor of the Roman Empire, an illegitimate child, can it be used?

Therefore, Marin resolutely denied the name. It's okay to use an Italian name, but don't use a fancy name. After all, he was just a colonial prince. Moreover, it is too arrogant for an illegitimate child to use the name of the Roman emperor, and it is also the name of the first emperor of the Roman Empire.

In the end, Felice made a compromise, but still took a very hanging name - Giuliano...

In fact, Giuliano is the name of the current Pope Julius II, and he has a great background. Although not the name of a Roman emperor, it is also the name of the Pope. Moreover, the current Pope Julius II can be regarded as the grandfather of little Giuliano...

In this way, the youngest child of Marin took the same name as the current Pope, a very Italian name-Giuliano!
