Compared with the attention caused by S.H.I.E.L.D., Li Zitao's mind has been more focused on Europe in the past half a month.

Juliana did not disappoint, successfully stirring up a family dispute, and plunging a knife into the back of the heart when Baller was deliberately ready to make a big move.

"The bloodline is impure, contrary to the centuries-old tradition of the family, the presbyterian council will re-screen the family heirs, and Balrett's inheritance will be invalid. ”

Because of this news from the Presbyterian Church, the Rothschilds fell into chaos, and the Belgian, Swiss, and Spanish branches successively expressed their desire for independence.

Immediately afterwards, the British branch said that it would re-elect a new heir, and it also had the support of the Sassoon family.

This is not the worst of all, what is even worse is that there are also riots within the French lord's house.

Overnight, Barrett became an enemy except for a few loyal doglegs.

"Does it feel familiar to the world overnight?" said casually as Li Zitao lay lazily in the garden at Beverly 18 Manor.

"Are you talking about yourself?" said Mary, lying beside him, her sunny face shining with a motherly light, and the tranquil atmosphere matched the surroundings, making the whole garden a pleasant leisure.

Barrett is now in a situation just like when Li Zitao was taken away at the dock, the situation is changing rapidly, and people have no time to react.

Fortunately, Li Zitao had a group of loyal subordinates, and Mary also came to his side at that time.

The scene she appeared on that day is still hard to remember today.

If it weren't for Mary's appearance, everything he had now would have gone up in smoke, and he himself would have left a legacy in the United States.

"Honey, lean in. Sensing that Li Zitao was caught in a memory, Mary reached out to hold him, waited until he was close to her, raised her head, and said emotionally: "I love you." ”

"I love you too, you are the best gift from God. Li Zitao hugged his wife, stroked her lower abdomen and smiled: "And our little baby." ”

The lips kissed lightly, and the warm current flowed through the heart, making the spirit more tired.

"Albert is also involved in this, what do you think will be the end result?" said Mary, a little worried.

Mary and Albert have a good relationship, and the prince, who is a bit introverted, stammering, and not expressive, is now very kind and kind.

There was not the slightest news about the Rothschilds' family, and it seemed as if everything was going even.

Mary was also on the phone with her godmother yesterday when she learned that Albert had recently become close to the Sassoon family in England.

"There is no hope for Barrett unless he can regain the support of the Presbyterian Church, but how can those old fellows beat themselves up,

In the end, no matter who sits on the position of patriarch, he will not let go of him as a loser, whether it is to establish power or eliminate the threat, the best result is exile!"

Throwing it into a place where birds don't poop and staying for the rest of their lives without worrying about eating and drinking is the best ending for Barrett.

There is also a possibility that he will find someone who can help him turn over, and as soon as possible.

Because as time goes on, more and more people are on the opposite side of him, and the power is growing.

Now the person who can help him turn over, Li Zitao can think of no more than a first-hand index.

And most of them have to use up the love left by their ancestors in order to make it possible for him to regain the position of head of the family.

For the sake of an outsider, the family's heritage is consumed, no matter how you think about it, the gains outweigh the losses, and Barrett is dead.

Don't underestimate the elders of these ancient families, the people who can serve as elders are all in the family with great power, and their branches have even given birth to patriarchs.

It's just that the descendants are not angry, and the position of the head of the family is sidelined, and then it becomes a branch from the main family, which is not uncommon.

This mechanism is to ensure that the family can always be in the hands of those who can do it, and it is the most fundamental reason why the other branches are disgruntled and dare to rebel.

If it weren't for the halfway kill of Balret, the selection of the patriarch this time should have been selected in the branch.

The sons of the old patriarch are useless waste, and the daughters have no inheritance, and the young talents of the branch family are all gearing up, waiting for the day when they will be in power.

Then, boom

A thunder fell from the sky, and the old patriarch suddenly had an illegitimate child, still born to a non-Jew.

Later, he violated the family tradition and directly put this 'mixed-race' heir to the position of patriarch.

"So he's really hopeless?" said Mary, still a little skeptical.

It is not an exaggeration to compare Rothschild to a financial dynasty, how does it sound a bit childish to be able to overturn the status of the new king so easily?

"Unless his dad can jump out of the coffin. He smiled at Mary in return, and he just thought about it in his heart.

If he had to say anything, Mary would have said that he had no reverence for the dead.

Thinking of death, Li Zitao found that he really lacked awe.

"Maybe it's because I've already died once?" Li Zitao said in his heart.

He soon forgot all about these problems, because Mary wanted to swim, and he had to go into the water to make sure she was safe.

During her pregnancy, Mary did not exercise in the slightest.

In addition to work, every morning jog becomes a quiet walk, pruning branches in the garden, swimming... Meditate.

In her words, it should be called meditation.

This method was taught to her by an Indian monk whom Mary met in Geneva, and it simply means being calm, facing the sun and shielding out the outside world.

It didn't sound special, so Li Zitao didn't object, but studied with her.

It is really difficult to do it without distractions and block out external sounds, people have seven emotions and six desires, and when the brain nerves are active, how can they not think about things.

Especially for adults, and Li Zitao himself doesn't believe in these.

However, Mary said that she really did it, and Li Zitao continued to insist on it with half a doubt.

After a dozen attempts in a row, he finally found his senses gradually.

The whole body is crisp and numb, the brain has a feeling of drowsiness, but the mind is extraordinarily spiritual.

When I opened my eyes again, thirty or forty minutes passed before I knew it.

It's a magical feeling, a bit like falling into a deep sleep, every time you wake up, you are refreshed and your body is full of strength.

But not every meditation is successful, at least for Li Zitao.

Mary is becoming more and more proficient, and in just a few minutes, she is able to enter a meditative state, keeping her energetic and no longer sleepy during the day.

I have to say that there are always things in this world that cannot be explained by science, but fortunately, neither of them is superstitious and can look at this matter rationally.

Otherwise, with this meditation technique, the two of them would have gone to India to burn incense and worship the Buddha and seek the scriptures.
