Chapter 222: Bloodline

For the nobility of this world, the family is a very wonderful thing. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

As early as thousands of years ago, the royal family that ruled the continent of Oro had decreed that only direct descendants could inherit the family domain and the title of nobility.

To use the original Tuke family as an example, Matthew Tuke is the lord of the entire Tuke Basin, also known as the Great Lord. But his real territory was only one part of the Red Keep, and the rest was divided into seven parts and ruled by his children.

But before he died, a certain child must be appointed to inherit his position as great lord. When this child inherits the lordship, he has the right to take back the lands of the other siblings and then hand them over to his children.

This is the aristocracy of the current Oro Continent.

The advantage of this is that a certain piece of land will always be ruled by a simple direct family, and the disadvantage is that after the new lord succeeds to the throne, the recovery of the territory often needs to rely on the deterrence of force.

However, this is not the case for the Franklins.

In Renault's brain library, the Franklin family tree is as simple as a straight line.

From the first name on the first page of the genealogy, it is almost passed down from generation to generation, and all generations are males.

It was almost impossible, but the Franklins did it.

This surprised Renault, who has the common sense of modern medicine.

I don't know if his ancestors were not interested in having children, or if the Franklin family is of special blood.

He hadn't thought much about it before, and Renault was only 22 years old now, just reaching the legal age for marriage.

According to his own plan, it is not too late to wait another two or three years to talk about marriage.

It's just that today, all of a sudden, everyone began to care about his life's events, and even Yuxi, a little girl who is usually as indifferent as water, joined this camp, which made him feel a little strange and inexplicable.

"Why?"

He asked puzzledly, originally thinking that without parents and elders in this world, he would not have to endure the pain of being forced to marry again.

But he didn't expect that these guys under his command would "attack" him together as if they had colluded.

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, obviously there are very necessary reasons, but no one wants to say it first.

In the end, it was Hawkeye Hank who tapped him on the shoulder and called him to the side.

"Continuation of the pedigree. ā€

Hank succinctly said, "It may be that your father didn't tell you that the Franklin family has a special lineage. ā€

Renault had heard of this, but he didn't know what was so special, and Hawkeye Hank didn't know either, he only vaguely knew that it was a secret, but he didn't get into it that deeply.

"All I know is that your family lineage is very important to many people, such as the royal family. But it has also been hated by many people because of this, such as the deer family, the black sheep family or the wolf family in the north. ā€

Renault said in his heart, no wonder he clashed with these families as soon as he came, it turned out that there was this reason.

"Just ......"

"Just what?" Seeing that he was about to stop talking, Renault couldn't help but ask a little eagerly.

"First of all, please forgive me for being disrespectful. ā€

"Hank, we're friends, just say anything. ā€

"Okay. I would say that maybe it's just because of your father, maybe because you were a bit 'silly' since you were a kid, so he was rather desperate and didn't intend to tell you about the importance and secrets of the bloodline. And he also self-exiled for a time and lost all of Black Iron Town, which is likely to be a tired mentality. ā€

"Since I'm tired of it, why don't you just lose all your family property and let me be a homeless person completely, what does it mean to leave a mine?"

Hank smiled helplessly, a question he couldn't answer.

Renault's father's unexpected actions back then, no one can say what he was for.

"Do you think that's not what he thinks?"

Mia joined their conversation at this time, as a member of the royal family, she still heard about those things back then, "If it weren't for the royal family's secret interference, with the strength of the Lu family and the Black Sheep family, even if your father wanted to have reservations, it would be impossible." Have you ever wondered why after your father's death, the Lu family was able to allow you, a thorn in the eye, to live peacefully in the mine for so many years?"

"That's what the royal family means, too?"

"The royal family must preserve a vestige of the Franklin family's bloodline. ā€

Bloodline, bloodline again.

Renaud felt a little annoyed, he was here to create a hegemony, not to sell blood.

Since the bloodline of the Franklin family is so important, it would be good for the royal family to persuade his grandfather and father to have more children, why did he have to wait until he was the only Franklin family in the whole world to value his so-called bloodline?

And he seems to understand a little why everyone is suddenly so concerned about his marriage.

In Mia's words, his family's bloodline is very noble, and he is an awakened person, and his body is very good, as long as he doesn't die by himself, he can still live for decades.

So in the past, it didn't matter if you got married early or later.

But he never thought that he changed his ancestors' legacy of living and working in peace and contentment in Black Iron Town, and became particularly capable of tossing, not to mention occupying the Tuke Basin and Little Wolf Castle, and now he is on the bar with the Black Sheep family, so that the early winter war is unavoidable.

There are so many families in the world watching, and this time the royal family wants to intervene There is a limit.

Therefore, in the eyes of everyone, the victory or defeat of Renault in this battle is unpredictable.

If he wins, it's naturally easy to say.

But if the Black Sheep family wins, he is destined to die in the chaos of the army.

In this case, the Franklin family would be "extinct".

He was persuaded to plant a seed for Franklin before the war, just in case.

It's just that in his opinion, it is really a ridiculous reason to get married and have children for the continuation of the bloodline.

But even if everyone is salty and eats turnips and doesn't worry about it, then what about Yuxi? She is not the kind of nosy girl, could it be that she suddenly changed her sex and thought it was fun to force marriage with everyone, so let's tease him together?

Or is there a reason why she's different?

I have to find a chance to ask about this, but I don't know if she will say it.

Under the expectant gaze of everyone, Renaud waved his hand in disappointment and announced that no one should mention this matter again, and he was in charge of his marriage.

has become a big lord, and if you change to the previous world, at least at the level of a provincial governor, can't you still have a few relationships freely and comfortably?

Besides, he didn't want to let his marriage carry the mission of inheriting the family before he started to fall in love. This is absolutely unfair to him and his future wife.

"Isn't it really that hard to just have a baby?"

Looking at his departing back, Mia thought with some regret. As long as this world is not particularly poor, everyone starts to be a father at the age of seventeen or eighteen.

Doesn't he know that he is now an older young man, and in a few years he will be an "old man"? )
