Chapter 55: Half-Elf (1)
Saga rolled over from his horse, his hands behind his back, looking southwest, his height of one meter nine, showing oppression, and his momentum was extremely heavy.
The young monarch had already dismounted, and Jiashi naturally did not dare to continue riding on the horse, so he also dismounted, reached out to take the horse that Saga had thrown down, and walked to Sagar's side to stand still.
"Jiashi, this is the Elven Kingdom, right?" asked Saga suddenly.
Jiashi is also very tall, only slightly lower than Sachar, estimated to be 1.85 meters. The two of them are completely two giants in the province of Blago. Because of the standard of living, most of the people of the Blago tribe, even if they are sturdy men, are only about 1.7 meters tall.
The men among the citizens of the empire are all one meter seven or eight in height, and they are all extremely strong, in terms of physical fitness, they can completely destroy the major human races around them, even if they are against the orc race, they are not inferior at all.
"Yes, Shaojun. Jiashi said: "From the city of Brago, over the mountains, about a few hundred kilometers in a straight line from Vienna, Chen's uncle is now the ambassador of the empire to the elven kingdom. It's in Vienna. ”
"I remember, the Nuchels family is of elven blood?" asked Saga knowingly.
"Yes, by chance, the family acquired the blood of the elves. ”
Jiashi is not talking nonsense.
In this world, if you want to say that the race with the most stubborn bloodline, there is no room for discussion, and there is absolutely no doubt about the elf race.
It was very easy for the rest of the races to have children if they intermarried. Especially for similar races, such as humans and orcs, for various reasons, these two races have left a large number of heirs, almost all of whom are concentrated in the north of the empire.
Over the years, a kingdom has been formed.
Those descendants of humans and orcs in general feel a little discriminated against.
Humans call them half-orcs, and orcs call them half-humans, neither of whom identifies as their own people.
The empire can even accept the surrender of the orcs, but there are always some concerns about this group of people.
Comparatively speaking, the bloodline of the elves is extremely stubborn.
Their own fertility is not strong enough, and the continuation of their own race is very difficult, almost every family has only one pair of children, if they can give birth to a third child, it will be thanks to the gift of the goddess of life.
This is also the reason why the elven kingdom almost never goes to war with other kingdoms, and even if it is forced to go to war, it is always with other troops, because there are too few people to die.
If it weren't for the fact that the elves had some other ways to increase the birth rate a little, I'm afraid the elves would have been finished long ago.
In this case, it is even more unlikely that elves and foreigners will have children. The difficulty increases almost exponentially, and each child born is considered a gift from the gods.
In fact, this is the so-called scarcity is expensive.
It is precisely because of the difficulty of birth that these half-elves have received completely different treatment from half-orcs.
Elves and humans alike have shown kindness to them.
"I heard that it is still the blood of a royal daughter?" Sachar continued.
The so-called princess, this title is too broad.
This title can be used by the princesses of Versailles, as well as the daughters and granddaughters of other princesses.
Hearing Sagar's question, Jiashi couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, how could Sagar Shaojun know so clearly about this kind of thing countless years ago.
However, he still quickly replied: "Yes, Shaojun, that distant ancestor was once the daughter of the third eldest princess, a real princess. ”
After speaking, he also explained in detail.
"But that was many years ago, over the years, a few ancestors have been appreciated by the elven queen and allowed to marry other princesses, and the bloodline of the princess has long been thin. ”
Saga nodded, indicating that he understood, the so-called princess is a woman with relatively thin royal blood, and she does not have the status of a royal daughter, but she is still a nobleman after all.
Saga had long discovered that the bloodline of the Nuchels family could never have been just a distant ancestor of the elven clan countless years ago, and now it is clear.
Thinking of this, Saga couldn't help but turn his head to look at Jiashi, a little clear in his heart, but there were more doubts.
"Nuchels' house is indeed a bit unusual in the Elven Kingdom. But why didn't he return to the imperial capital with this power?If I hadn't come to Blago and didn't even know about it, why did the Nuchers family hide it so deeply?"
Jiashi has been fighting for power and profit all these years, and he doesn't dare to say anything else, but he is definitely a good hand at observing words and feelings.
As soon as he saw Zachar's eyes, he understood Zachar's general thoughts.
"Young Monarch, the Elven Kingdom will never get involved in the family strife in the empire. ”
Now that he knew what Saga was thinking, Jiashi certainly couldn't let Saga have these bad opinions about himself and his family.
"Huh?"
Saga let out a nasal voice, and with a questioning tone, motioned for Kashi to continue.
Signaled by Zachar, he took a soft breath and began to speak slowly but clearly and methodically.
"The Elven Kingdom has always been very cautious and will never participate in any struggle for power within the empire. ”
This is also clear to Zag, the Elven Kingdom has always communicated with the Emerald Empire at the national level.
The Elven Queen once explicitly ordered the major princes and nobles in the Static Elven Kingdom to form alliances with the famous families of the Jade Empire, and they must not be involved in the power struggle in the Jade Empire.
"When I helped the empire mediate provincial affairs, it was also because of the power of attorney from His Majesty the Emperor. ”
"Therefore, although the family has some support in the elven kingdom, it does not get any help in this regard. ”
"If the family is known by the enemy about the relationship with the elven kingdom, I am afraid that it will only be more guarded, which will be more unfavorable to the family. ”
"Besides, not everyone in the imperial capital likes the elves. ”
Hearing this, Sachar's pupils shrank.
There is indeed a group of people in the imperial capital who have some obsessions with pure-blooded imperial citizens. They considered everyone but the citizens of the empire to be inferior.
For such people, the mainstream of the empire still scoffs.
The Brandon family is half of this kind of family, and in addition to recognizing the citizens of the empire, they all treat the obvious excellent human race and the golden race of the elven race equally.
Although those forces can't make it to the big scene, and it is even more impossible to become emperors, they still have some forces, and there are some forces in the military department and the senate, and it is very simple to put some stumbling blocks on the Brandon family.
