Georges' Ambition - The Battle of the British Succession

Georges of the Principality of Tyumen is a proud child. Of course, if your father, the Duke of Tyumen, is the younger brother of the Byzantine Emperor and was born in a purple nobleman, and your mother, the Duchess, is the beloved daughter of the Emperor Britannia, a genius who is loved by all people Princess, you can too, and have every reason to be proud; if not, hehe.

"What is a purple-clothed nobleman?" One afternoon, when the tutor was teaching the four young masters of the Duke's family, and the three elder brothers had already gathered together to carefully look through the genealogy table of the paternal family, little Georges pointed to the family tree. The symbol of the nobleman in purple, asked the teacher.

"Ah, purple-clothed nobleman, is a term exclusive to the Byzantine royal family." The tutor replied, "Originally referring to the emperor's children born in the purple palace of the Byzantine palace, or the emperor's children in the porphyry palace. The children born can be called purple-clothed nobles, and have priority over the inheritance rights of children born before the emperor ascended the throne."

"Oh." Little Georges passed it after hearing this, but his third brother, Teudmond, raised his head from the patrilineal genealogy, "In this case, it is very unfair to the children born before the emperor came to the throne, the empire It’s also easy to mess up.”

"Why?" The brothers all raised their heads.

"First of all, the emperor's own accession time is not predictable. In this way, he is likely to have many children before he ascends the throne. Once the emperor dies, the children born to the purple-clothed nobles are young, the master is less suspicious, and the elder brother is an adult, which is prone to chaos; Secondly, the emperor must have many other territories, but the succession law of those territories will not give priority to purple nobles, so every change of the throne means the reduction of the emperor's own direct territories, especially if the territories are older Inheritance law, it is very easy for the oldest person in the family to take the territory to become someone else's vassal, and it is easy to cause disputes between countries."

"Oh——" the brothers understood, and the knowledgeable teacher looked at him in surprise. Among the four young masters, the young master who ranked third showed a talent that was close to that of a child prodigy, and he learned everything better than other brothers. faster.At such a young age, being able to express one's point of view in such an orderly manner, no matter whether it is correct or not, such a clear mind is already impressive.

"Our father was born after our grandfather ascended the throne," added the second child Albricht, "so he has a strong claim to Byzantium."

"Yes." The kind scholar nodded.

"So, do our brothers have the right to claim Byzantium?" Georges Jr. asked impatiently.

"Yes, but it is a weak claim and can only be used in war."

"That's it, why not start a war?" Georges said casually, disapprovingly.

"How can I do that?" Albricht knocked his little brother on the head and blamed, "How can you start a war for your own selfish desires, and do you have the ability to govern the country? Just occupy for the sake of occupation, and don't manage well If it is true, it is as easy to gain as it is to lose it.”

"And don't forget, I'm the eldest in the family. Even if I want to claim the title, I'll come first, and it's never your turn." Big brother Brian Joelf sneered dismissively.

"You will definitely have the Principality of Qiumen in the future! Why don't you let me try? I don't care so much." Little Georges jumped up from his seat and walked in front of Brian Jolf, but was shocked by the other's eyes Stopped, "I, I, I'm going to learn Greek, brothers bye." He ran out in a hurry.

"Georges, wait for me." Teudmond also stood up and saluted the teacher, "I haven't finished my Greek, so I went to the Greek teacher."

"Huh, proud and timid little guy, I don't know who his temper is like in the family, and he will suffer in the future." Brian Joelf ignored it.

"I think it's probably his Greek teacher who said all day that he is like a grandfather, and that he will definitely be able to build a big business in the future." Albrick said dissatisfied, "He didn't even think about it, we are all Jiang's family, rooted in Britannia, how could you go to Byzantium? There are pagans all around you."

"The two young masters are right." The tutor said, "I will send the two young masters off, and the genealogy class will continue after I return."

In the corridor, the teacher looked at Teudmond seriously.

"Master Teudmond, you are a very smart child. In fact, you are the smartest child I have ever seen. It is estimated that only your grandmother, Her Majesty Queen Alexandra, and your mother, Her Royal Highness Princess Karin was so smart when she was a child. However, you are only the third son in the family, and you will depend on your elder brother to live in the future. Therefore, I hope that you will not show your edge when you get along with your brothers, even with your brother. Keep your parents together so that they don't feel bad about your talent being out of proportion to your status, your older brothers don't feel threatened by your talent, and you don't feel unbalanced by it " The teacher said it in one breath, although it was a bit straightforward and cruel, but it was Teudmond's golden and jade words.

"Thank you teacher, I understand." Smart people naturally know what is beneficial to them, Teudmond saluted the teacher politely.

On the way to the Greek teacher, Teudmond couldn't help thinking that if the Greek teacher thought so, Georges wouldn't impulsively declare Byzantium.

"Master Georges, of course, will make great achievements in the future, become Augustus, revive Greece, and rebuild Rome." The Greek teacher who came from Byzantium with Duke Hectorios of Tyumen really comforted him at this moment. Weeping Georges.

"But brother Brian Joelf said that I am the youngest son and have no right to claim the territory in front of him."

"Hey—the young master will inherit the Principality of Qiumen in the future, so what? Qiumen has nothing to do with Byzantine jurisprudence. If he didn't claim Byzantium, wouldn't other brothers be allowed to claim it? You have four brothers, and he inherited everything. Think about the way out for the younger brothers, you can't pack it up and send it to the female lords to be the door-to-door son-in-law."

"Mr. Hammersburg," Teudmond said with a headache as soon as he opened the door of the classroom, "Why are you instilling these nonsense things to Georges again, he almost quarreled with his elder brother today."

"Oh, Master Teudmund, you came just in time." The teacher pulled Teudmund in, pressed him to sit beside Georges, and looked at the two brothers sitting side by side, "Let me say, In this family, only you two are eligible to inherit."

"What?" Teudmond was shocked and Georges was delighted.

"Because you two young masters were born after Lord Hectorios became the duke, according to the rules of the nobles in purple, you two have the priority of succession."

"Tyumen is the territory of Britannia, not Byzantium, and there are no purple palaces here." Teudmond couldn't take it anymore.

"But the Duke has a strong claim from Byzantium. As long as the Duke becomes Augustus in his lifetime, your brothers will be the heirs."

"Yes, yes." Georges said fearing that the world would be chaotic, "Father also said that among the four of us, only two of us look like Greeks, and I especially resemble my grandfather. If you don't want to be emperor in the future, you can be me." , you just stay in Qiumen and wait for Brian Joelf to give you alms." He was so excited that he didn't even add the word "big brother", and directly called the heir of the Principality by his first name.

"Tch, if you can stay in Tyumen for the rest of your life and live in peace and stability, it's fine to look at your brother's face." The teacher sighed. Surname, at that time, who will remember how noble your background is."

"Well, teacher... Are you dissatisfied with my father being the son-in-law?" Teudmond said with a black line.

"Ah? Ah, no, no, I don't have any objections to His Majesty Bag and His Highness Karin, really." The teacher waved his hands repeatedly.

"I've decided that I will work hard on my own in the future, and I must not look at the faces of my brothers to live!" Georges clenched his small fists smugly.
