The Rise of the European Emperor

Regarding Albert's matter, the Hoffman family soon held a family meeting www. Кan ShUge. La In addition to old Hoffman and Mrs. Mary, all of Marin's brothers and sisters are here.

Adler came back to attend Anne's birthday party before, and he also returned to Aurich, and he didn't have time to leave. So, Adler also attended the family meeting. Even Annie came to participate. After all, Anne is an adult, and it's time for her to be exposed to politics. As for Angela and Liv, there is no promising meeting.

When Albert explained the reason and confessed that he had given up marrying a foreign princess, the old Hoffman was angry. He yelled at Marin:

"Bastard, do you have such a big brother? What does Albert want to go to the Wilderness Continent and whether he marry a foreign princess or not?"

"The relationship is too big, Dad, the foreign princess is in danger of leaking secrets!" Marin didn't give Old Hoffman face this time, but repeated the leaking risks he told Albert before.

"Can't both Simon and Albert marry a foreign princess?" Old Hoffman was unhappy. His five children, the eldest and the second, all went to the daughter of a knight, and the grades were not high. Therefore, he very much hoped that his two younger sons would marry a princess, and Annie would also marry a foreign prince. So, how good is it to speak out?

"That's not the case. If Albert doesn't go to the Wilderness Continent, there is no such restriction. He can marry any princess he likes."

"Then... Albert, let's not go to the Wilderness Continent, okay?" Old Hoffman advised. In his opinion, it doesn't matter whether or not to go to the wild continent. However, whether or not to marry a princess is a big deal.

However, Albert was firm:

"No, father, I still decided to go to the wild continent to be the governor."

"You can also be governor on the mainland. Marin controls East Friesland, Oldenburg, Schleswig, and Münster. Anywhere can make a governor position. Marin, Am I right?"

Marin nodded and agreed:

"Yes, Albert, you don't need to go to the wild continent, you can get a good position in the country." Marin is the boss of several vassal states, and it is easy to arrange a position for Albert. .

"No, I'm going to be the governor. I like the feeling of pioneering. Besides, it's not that difficult to deal with the Indians. I know very well that Brother Marin's expansion in Germany, the opponents are all powerful enemies. If it weren't for the horses Brother Lin has the wisdom taught by Daxian, and he can't resist it at all. Therefore, I like to explore, it is more suitable for me to go to the wild continent to fight the Indians..."

Marin nodded. He found that his little brother was still very smart. He knew that his ability was not enough to fight against people in Germany, so he chose to bully the Indians. This is not bullying, but reason. If you obviously don't have enough talent, but go head to head with all the tyrants, you'll be an idiot.

Even Marin himself, if it weren't for the fact that he had too much knowledge in his previous life, and he was also very knowledgeable. It is also impossible to fight against the tyrants of the same era with one's own talent. It's just that he has crushed the ancient natives with knowledge beyond the times, which is enough to allow himself to occupy a place in the feudal hegemony.

Albert is not a traveler, and his talent is not very high. Naturally, he has no ability to compete with the heroes of this era. Therefore, he chose to bully the Indians, which was a wise choice.

After thinking for a while, Marin said:

"Since you have made up your mind,

Well then, I'll let Tara go to Havana to be the governor. And you, go to Amerigo Island to be the governor. The climate on Amerigo Island is not hot, there is no tropical disease, and it is relatively safe. "

"But, isn't that too unchallenging? It is said that there are no Indians on those two islands." Albert was a little unhappy. He felt that he had lost the opportunity to pick up bargains.

"It's not, Albert, these two islands are the springboard for me to conquer the wild continent. The richness of the wild continent is comparable to that of Europe. These two islands are the bridgehead and logistics base for me to conquer the wild continent. Therefore, there are Location is important. After a while, I plan to send a force over there to test it out to see if it can expand on land."

"That's great!" Albert was very happy.

At this time, Simon on the side suddenly interjected:

"That...Brother Marin, can I lead troops to fight the Indians?"

Marin looked at Simon and said with a smile:

"Yes, the conditions are the same as Albert, not to marry a foreign princess... In addition, not to marry the daughter or sister of a domestic military general..."

Suddenly, old Hoffman couldn't help but burst out, and he shouted at Marin:

"Marin, what do you mean? You are not allowed to marry foreign princesses, but you are not allowed to marry the daughters or sisters of domestic generals. Don't you know that most of the nobles in the country are generals who command the army? Without military exploits, where are you? Become a nobleman?"

What Old Hoffman said was true. In East Frisian counties, most of the nobles were generals. For example, Schwartz, such as Kahn, were knighted because of military exploits.

"You're talking about East Friesland, but Oldenburg and Schleswig have old nobles..."

"Then why are they not allowed to marry the daughters or sisters of the generals?" Old Hoffman said dissatisfiedly.

"Because I'm afraid that one day they will become Richard III..." Marin stood up, looked at old Hoffman, and said word by word seriously.

Suddenly, the atmosphere in the room cooled down, and the air seemed to freeze. Mrs. Mary, Albert and Anne all changed their faces...

Adler was puzzled at first, but he seemed to have thought of something, and his face changed...

Only old Hoffman, a scumbag, did not understand what Richard III was. After Mrs. Mary whispered to her, old Hoffman jumped up in shock:

"You...you...you...Marin, you actually look at your brother like this?" Old Hoffman stuttered a little when he said this. He didn't expect Marin to be so cold.

"Not my own brother, but, as an emperor, all dangers must be strangled in the cradle!" Marin said decisively.

"Emperor..." Everyone present was shocked.

"Yes, Emperor! Don't you think that I will not be the past? I have taken control of the five vassal states of East Friesland, Oldenburg, Schleswig, Münster and Osnabrück. My country is already the size of a small kingdom. So, it is very likely to become a king in the future. So, don't be surprised. And, an emperor, he must be cold and ruthless. Edward IV is too much He believed in his brother, so his son Edward V was killed..."

"Who said that Edward V was dead? It is said that Edward V and his younger brother Richard, Duke of York escaped..." Anne reluctantly defended.

"Escape? If you do, will it be Henry VII's turn to be king? Tell you, Edward V and the Duke of York were both killed by Richard III, in the Tower of London. Their bodies were built into London. In the walls of the tower, no one found..." Marin said grimly.

Everyone shuddered, and Old Hoffman said strangely:

"How did you know?"

"My teacher Einstein told me that he was in London at the time. According to divination, he learned that two poor children were killed in the Garden Tower of the Tower of London, and their bodies were built into the wall beside the stairs. Hehe, Richard III is their uncle..."

At this moment, Albert suddenly stood up and said:

"Brother Malin, don't worry, I will never become someone like Richard III. Moreover, I will never engage in military power or make friends with generals!"

Marin nodded approvingly:

"Albert, I believe in you. I did this to take precautions, not against you and Simon."

"I understand..." Albert said softly.

When Albert said this, Adler and Simon couldn't sit still, and old Hoffman's face became ugly.

Adler stammered:

"Marin...or, I...I surrender command of Oldenburg's army and come back..."

"No, Adler, don't worry, the troops under your command are only militias, and they are stationed outside the mainland. As long as the number does not exceed 5,000, I will have no other ideas. Moreover, you give me the right of inheritance. , I will not treat you and your heirs badly."

Only then did Adler sit back at ease, while Simon didn't know what to say, he said:

"Brother Malin, I..."

"It's alright, Simon. As long as you don't control the local army, there's no problem. Going to attack the natives of the wild continent, I don't mind..."

"Brother Marin, what about me..." Annie was also frightened by Marin's performance just now, and asked a little scared.

"Anne... Hehe, what are you worried about? You are going to marry a prince and become a happy girl... However, you can't tell your future husband the rich secrets of the Wilderness Continent... Otherwise, if he has ambitions Fight with me, I might kill him..." Marin smiled and said something that made everyone shudder.

"Woooooooo...Brother Marin, please don't kill him, otherwise, I will become a widow..." Annie was obviously frightened.

"Don't worry, Annie, as long as you don't reveal this secret, isn't there no danger?" Marin said gently.

Although Annie stopped crying, she was still frightened...

On the side, old Hoffman looked annoyed. Mrs. Mary, on the other hand, looked at Marin with a complicated expression. That look was both unhappy and comforting... She knew that her son, Marin, was already a qualified and ruthless monarch...

Seeing that everyone seemed to be stunned, Marin also wanted to ease the atmosphere, so he said:

"Okay, my brothers and sisters, don't worry. As long as you don't take the initiative to hurt me, I will not hurt you. After all, we are brothers and sisters of the same mother. I am rich and rich, and I will not forget it. Yours. The more successful I am, the more benefits you will have. Today, I say these words to remind everyone. This also shows that I don’t want to go to the point of confrontation with my brothers…”

Everyone nodded, agreeing with Marin's statement. However, the warm atmosphere could never be restored. For the first time, Marin's brothers and sisters realized that their most promising brother was not only their relative, but also a ruthless monarch...
