Chapter Eighty-Five: Making the Best of People

"Have you ever heard of the name Lance Keitel Lebodin Norio du Schernašak?" Le Vima had no idea that the other party would ask such a question.

It's true that Aoheng decided to kill Levima, but his goal is not just to kill Levima - he has to kill him anyway, why don't he play his value well before killing?

Beyond the garrison of the Mai Fei Lang military camp and further east, even if it is an occupied area of the Empire, Ao Zongheng has never forgotten for a moment what he was going to do in the Empire.

However, he only knew that his target was within the empire, but the vastness of the empire was not comparable to the two ancestral kingdoms, and he had no idea where to find it. And an Imperial Legion General should be a very good object to inquire about.

What kind of class will the Legion be in the Grand Bogar Empire? To put it simply, there are about forty to fifty permanent generals of the same rank and rank as Levima today. They were the backbone of the Imperial Army, and the legion was nominally under the command of the Ministry of Military Affairs, and although the legions would not be promoted at the discretion of the Ministry of Military Affairs, the general orders were indeed under the command of the Ministry of Military Affairs. The boss of the Ministry of Military Affairs is the Secretary of Military Affairs, and from the general of the corps to the secretary of military affairs, there is a difference of two levels in his position, but the actual gap between the two levels is that most of the regimental generals have never had a chance to step forward in their lives.

However, even if he sits in the position of the secretary of military affairs, he can be regarded as a royal court, but if he really reaches the front of the palace, there are still many people in front of him. Therefore, in the entire imperial ruling system, although the regimental generals are in control of violence, in terms of status, they are still quite far from the real human and ministerial positions, and there are only about two hundred positions at the same level as the regimental generals in the empire, not counting those nobles who have rank and no position.

However, status and knowledge are not directly related, in the world of Pleoz, sitting at home behind closed doors to know the world is almost non-existent, and although most of the legion generals do not have and will not receive advanced education, they go south and north with the transfer, and in terms of the breadth of knowledge, they may not be inferior to those ministers and ministers who sit in the imperial capital.

According to the previous clues, what Ao Zongheng is looking for is this god named Lance with Keitel as his ancestral surname, Shernarshak as his family name, and even if he can't find this guy directly, he must find this Shernashak family from which he was born, and then find clues from there.

Not surprisingly, Levima had never heard of the name, but he knew that there were more than one noble family with the surname of Shernashak.

In the two western kingdoms, such aristocratic families with the same surname and different relatives were rare, because they adopted the feudal vassal system. One of the characteristics of the vassal aristocracy is that the family name of the nobles is often the name of the fief, such as the family name of the Senubes, and his sons, in addition to the future heirs will inherit the family name of the Senubes, the other sons will take the Senubes as their family name if they have a fief, and take the name of the fief as the family name. Therefore, the nobles of these kingdoms, the change of surnames is particularly frequent and complicated.

The empire is different, the vast majority of the nobles of the empire do not have fiefs under actual control, so they will increase or change their family names after being named nobles, needless to say, the increase is the regular practice of changing the original family name to a surname. The change is rare, that is, directly throw away the original family name or even the ancestral surname, which is equivalent to opening a new family separately, and no one will do this in general, because in the eyes of many traditional people, this is "betraying the ancestors and forgetting the ancestors", the only exception is that the Emperor is the supreme person in the world, and the surname given by the Supreme is of course qualified to list the ancestors separately and be separated from the previous ancestral surname.

There are at least six Shernashak families known to Leweima alone, and they are distributed from all over the world. But fortunately, he can also do elimination.

Among these six families with the same surname, one can be excluded first, because his family's surname is not Du.

Although many countries use Du as a surname rank, the meaning of "Du" in each country is not exactly the same, and Le Weima intended to talk about the surname hierarchy of the empire, but how can Ao Zongheng have time to listen to him talk about these irrelevant things.

Among the remaining five Shernashak families, there is one Levima who is more familiar, and he knows that their family's ancestral surname is not Keitel, don't be surprised, because the surname of the nobles is too complicated, counting from the ancestral surname to the family name, except for the people in your own family, outsiders can remember your ancestral surname, that is, it is a very good personal relationship.

The other Levima is not familiar with it, but that one is very popular - the nobles of Xinzha last year, but because of Xinzha, there is at most one surname in the future, so it can also be excluded.

There are three left, one in the imperial capital, one in the southeast of the empire, and one in the northern part of the empire.

Three different families, but they represent the mainstream classification of the imperial aristocracy.

The imperial legal system is strict, and a noble family can buy houses and fields elsewhere, but where the family's own foundation is, it is designated by the imperial court, and it is relatively fixed, and it is not allowed to move without permission, nor is it allowed to leave only a few old, weak, sick and disabled people to support the façade of the family, and everyone else is running to settle elsewhere. The imperial patriarchal law stipulates that if the family moves privately, it can be discussed as a major crime.

Which family seals what place, what is the particularity?

The empire did not have an express code to stipulate these issues, not that no one considered this, but that these things were not easy to write into the clear grammar law, and the imperial courts of all dynasties dealt with them according to ancestral rules and various unspoken rules.

For example, only a very small number of nobles can be sealed in the imperial capital, and there are more in the imperial capital, while most of the remaining nobles can only be divided one by one according to the ancestral example of separation.

The so-called separation of administrations means that the fiefdoms of the nobles must not be sealed within his jurisdiction, for example, the family fiefdoms of Sakai must be in other Sakai. The fief of the Legion Commander cannot be in his garrison either. In addition, there are rules such as avoidance of origin, avoidance of blood, etc., which are very complex and detailed. At the end of the day, these rules are meant to maintain the stability of the Empire's rule.

If you combine these rules and analyze them backwards, the family in the imperial capital must either be favored or have power, which can be regarded as the more proud of the nobles of the empire today. The one in the southeast of the empire is much worse, unless it is the emperor's relatives, the official is definitely not big, because the southeast of the empire is the most underdeveloped area of the empire.

On the contrary, it is the one in the northern part of the empire, which is the most difficult to speculate, because the northern part of the empire is a place of special significance in the vast territory of the empire - it is the ancestral land of the empire.

The history of the Grand Bogar Empire is very long, and it has been established for almost 500 years. But at the beginning, the empire actually controlled the territory, almost only about 10% of today, in fact, this seems not small, but it should be noted that it is a barbaric frontier in the eyes of other countries, and it is difficult to develop, so Rong Bo will be the king of the land there. Of course, at that time the empire was not called an empire.

In this way, on the wasteland that others looked down on, the ancestors of the empire quietly engaged in production and development behind closed doors, and lived a peaceful life of three hundred years in a low-key manner.

In the next two hundred years, the land reform was completed, and the predecessor of the empire, which had enough population, began to launch waves of expansion wars. Although the territory is getting bigger and bigger, the descendants dare not forget the years of their ancestors in that wasteland. Even if the imperial capital was set in the south, which was located in various advantageous places, the original territory in the northern part of the empire was divided into ancestral realms, and at the same time the northern capital was built, and it was stipulated that future generations would visit the emperor once every three years to worship their ancestors in the northern capital.

In the vast territory of the empire's more than 40 Sakai, at least in terms of political status, the northern three Sakai were second only to the imperial capital Sakai. The family that can be sealed here may not have as much power as the nobles of the imperial capital, but when it comes to family status, it is really difficult to judge.

All three of these families may be the families of Lance Keitel Lebodin Norio du Schernašak, and Le Vima's suggestion is that if you go to the home of these families, the nobles are the most important, and as long as it is the bloodline recognized by the family, even if it dies, it will be recorded in the register. As for bastards, it is impossible for bastards to have such a long name, okay...... can use such a name, even if it is illegal, it must have recognized his ancestors and returned to his ancestors.

Le Vima felt like he hadn't said so much at once in years, and it was more tiring than half a day of planning and directing.

Perhaps, this is not the only reason.

From the time the assassin appeared in front of him to the present, about a time, in a military camp of 20,000 people, and during the day, it was almost impossible for no one to come in and report all kinds of problems.

But this assassin did not keep the man out, nor did he see any action from him, and as soon as the man who came in entered the tent fell on the body of the man who had fallen down in front of him, he did not know whether he was alive or dead. And the Assassin didn't even look at them. This arrogant indifference, this strange and desperate scene happened again and again, how could it not make Le Weima tired.

Le Weima regretted a little, it was okay to have two chances just now, but he felt that it was not enough to be sure, so he decided to wait. The result......

For the first time in her life, for the first time in her life, Le Vima was remorseful of her caution.

"I know you're not willing to be killed, but you really don't have any chance, so it's actually wise that you didn't do it just now. Le Weima was deeply "reflecting" in his heart, but he suddenly spoke.

Le Weima sat on the chair of his regimental general, in fact, he knew it in his heart, but he was not very willing to face this reality - even if Ao Zongheng couldn't kill him, the matter of destroying the embankment by the arson army could not be concealed no matter what, and he could not escape death at all. Even with his knowledge of the Imperial Court, even if he died at the hands of the Assassins, in order to preserve the reputation of the Empire, the public cause of his death must have been executed by the Emperor Chalin.

He decided that he was going to give up the struggle, and dying at the hands of the Assassins should be better than a public execution, right?

"You do it. Levima straightened his clothes, sat on the big chair, his eyes blazing, and reorganized his majesty as a general of the Mephilang Legion of the Western Military District of the Great Bogar Empire.

"Yes, I can afford to take it, I can put it down, I am a man. "Arrogant and upright.

"Since it is already certain to die, why is there anything that is not willing, but my subordinates here have no knowledge of this, please don't hurt their lives. ”

Ao Zongheng nodded slightly in agreement, "Do you have anything else to say?"
