Ruan took a sip of the tea on the table, "Do you know Queen Victoria of England?"

As soon as the words fell, Lu Manwen couldn't wait to show off his knowledge.

Alexandrina Victoria is the second-longest reigning monarch in British history, after the current Queen Elizabeth II, with a reign of 64 years.

She was also the first Queen of England to be addressed as "Queen of Great Britain and Ireland and Empress of India". Her reign was the period when Britain was the strongest "empire on which the sun never sets", known in British history as the "Victorian era", when Britain increased its colonial expansion and occupied many colonies.

During her reign, Britain's economy and culture prospered unprecedentedly, and the constitutional monarchy was fully developed, making Queen Victoria a symbol of peace and prosperity in Britain. ”

Lu An smiled with relief, and looked at her daughter playfully, "Then do you know that Queen Victoria died that day?"

Luman groaned, "It seems like the beginning of the twentieth century, right?"

"The book is written on January 22, 1901. Ji Tianci replied affirmatively.

Lu An looked at Ji Tianci with appreciation, "Yes, Queen Victoria was born on May 24, 1819. She was crowned king at the age of 18, and during her 64-year reign, Britain was arguably the world's 'boss'. Did you also know that Queen Victoria had hemophilia?"

Ji Tianci nodded, "Hemophilia is a 'royal disease', a hereditary disease, the book records that Queen Victoria did suffer from this disease, and three of her nine children were also inherited from this disease, and the result of their marriage with the European royal family was that this terrible disease spread among the European royal family, which led to terrible consequences, and many royal family members died one after another. ”

"Oh, it seems that you know a lot! Yes, have you ever wondered why Queen Victoria could live so long with hemophilia?"

"Hemophilia is not a terminal disease, it is a group of bleeding disorders with hereditary coagulation dysfunction, and its common characteristics are impaired production of active thromboplastin, prolonged coagulation time, lifelong bleeding tendency after mild trauma, and spontaneous bleeding in severe patients without obvious trauma. To put it simply, it is not easy to heal after the wound bleeds, and the bleeding does not stop. ”

"Haha, you're very professional!"

"Dad, God's gift is a miracle doctor!" Lu Manwen said proudly beside him.

"Well, I've heard the story of this miracle doctor, too. Let's move on to Queen Victoria, who you don't know is actually a seriously ill haemophilia. ”

Ji Tianci was a little surprised, "Then how did she live for so long, medical treatment was not developed at that time, and the blood transfusion technology was only discovered in 1900, could it be that she was ......"

After speaking, Ji Tianci pondered.

Lu An smiled knowingly, "What did you think of?"

"She's not going to be a vampire, is she?"

Ji Tianci wanted to find the answer on Lu An's face, but Lu An always had an unfathomable smile.

"You're right, but in the beginning, she wasn't a Blood.

The European Middle Ages (476~1453) was an era of transcendent power, and Europe during this period did not have a strong political power. Feudal secession brought frequent wars, Catholicism imprisoned the people's thoughts, caused the development of science and technology and productive forces to stagnate, and the people lived in hopeless suffering, so the Middle Ages or the early Middle Ages in Europe and the United States are generally called the "Dark Ages", which is traditionally considered to be a relatively slow period in the history of European civilization.

During this period, the Holy Cult was so powerful that the Bloods could only hide everywhere, and Anne Cain sealed herself in a coffin and buried herself in a ruined castle in England to escape the Cult's pursuit.

Anne Cain was transformed by Cain, the King of Blood. In the Bloodline, this process of transforming a person into a vampire is called 'First Embrace'. When Cain ascended, he told Anne that there was a great man in the East who needed the Bloodclan to rescue, and that this great man was trapped in the hands of the powerful men of the East, and that he was kind to the Bloods and the Wolves, and that if he came to Europe, the Bloods would rise.

Anne always remembered Cain's entrustment, but the "light" in Europe was strong, and the dark forces were scattered, she was hunted down by the Holy Religion, so she had to 'sleep' first, and when everyone forgot about her, she waited for an opportunity to move.

Before she fell asleep, she also transformed into a Bloodline, a member of the Bloodline, who was a well-known vampire in Europe, Count Dracula.

As you should know from his title, Dracula is just a D-class transcendent, and he has been following Anne's instructions to live as a mortal, observing the movements of the transcendent, and looking for the 'great man' before waking Anne when the time is right.

Queen Victoria has always been a very ambitious queen, and the United Kingdom during her reign was the most powerful Britain, but she barely survived the age of 18.

From an early age, Victoria believed that royal power should take precedence over religious beliefs. The decline of medieval Europe has brought the transcendent into the background, and most of them control the mortal in the form of religion. When Victoria is seriously ill, no 'god' wants to save her, and Dracula finds her, believing her to be a 'strange thing'.

Dracula didn't convert her to the Bloodline, because if he converted Victoria, Victoria would inevitably become the lowest vampire and would not see the light of day. The Holy Cult will easily find out that she is a vampire, and will inevitably get rid of her later.

Dracula used his own blood to keep Victoria alive, and he did not forget Anne's instructions and encouraged Victoria to wage war against the Nine Shadows. ”

Lu An sighed, "In 1840, the Opium War began, and after the war, Jiuyou was reduced to a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society. Dracula himself travels to the Nine Shadows to find the great man of the Bloodline's legends. But back then, Cain only vaguely felt that the teacher was in trouble, and he didn't know that Yuwen Zhi was locked in a coffin. Anne asked Deculla to look for him, but Dracula felt that after all these years, the man might be long gone.

After searching for the Nine Shadows for several years, Dracula discovered that the Nine Shadows did not have any information that could be related to the Bloodline, and in desperation, he had no choice but to return to Europe.

Until 1900, the British Empire, the United States of America, the French Third Republic, the German Empire, the Russian Empire, the Japanese Empire, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and the Kingdom of Italy invaded Jiuyou.

When Dracula got the news, he also intervened in the treasure carving up, and when he saw the coffin, he felt that it meant a lot to the Bloodline. The Eight-Nation Alliance, led by the British Empire, coincidentally brought back to Britain the coffin with Yu Wenzhi sealed.

At that time, Queen Victoria was in her twilight years, and if she did not convert to the Blood, she would die, but Dracula told her that if the Princely Bloodline converted her, she would be able to walk in the sun just like herself.

It just so happened that the coffin also made Dracula feel that the matter was important, and he felt the need to wake up Prince Anne. ”

Ji Tianci hurriedly asked at this time, "Anne saw Yuwenzhi?"

"No, but Yuwen Zhi said a few words to Anne. ”
