Chapter 891: Divorce
Now it's interesting.
Looking at the departing Yargaard, Duanmu Huai fell into deep thought. Theoretically, the Inquisition Chamber is not suitable for meddle in political affairs, but this time, ......... Well, it's no exception.
The reason is very simple, the reason why Duanmu Huai agreed to Prince Yargard's request was naturally because he also had a condition.
That is, elven magic must be cut off.
If at the beginning, Duanmu Huai was not sure what elf magic was, then after staying with Euphelia for so long, Duanmu Huai had already determined that ——— so-called magic elf was actually a subspace creature.
To be honest, Duanmu Huai is no exception to this, there are really a lot of similar things, not to mention anything else, let's just say that the psionic shaman subordinate to the space wolf in the original body legion, at that time, they were entangled with a thing called the storm wolf soul on the space wolf home planet, thinking that they were the guides of nature and other balabala.
Well, in the end, it turned out that it was still a bunch of subspace demons.
In fact, anything that doesn't live in the real world can basically be classified as a subspace demon.
This includes but is not limited to elves, ghosts, evil spirits, etc.........
So strictly speaking, those indigenous gods are also subspace demons, but they belong to the kind that can be fought for relatively speaking.
To put it bluntly, the local gang leaders still have some strength, at least when the foreign gangs come to attack, they will not directly raise their hands and surrender.
Although these magical elves don't seem to be a bad thing for now, when it comes to subspace creations, the Inquisition has always preferred to kill mistakes.
So Duanmu Huai made an agreement with Prince Algard that he could assist ——— Prince Algard, but in exchange, Prince Yargard had to completely cut off the heresy of elven magic.
This didn't hurt Prince Algard, after all, elven magic was the chasm that separated the nobles from the commoners, so he also wanted to completely destroy the existence of elven magic. So the two sides eventually hit it off and reached an agreement.
It's funny.
Duanmu Huai took a sip of tea and fell into thought. His opinion of Algaard is very subtle, and it must be said that Algard is indeed not very strong in most matters, but at least he is indeed a bold prince. Algard also told Duanmu Huai about the next part of his plan.
By sending these noble heirs and noble private armies to death, it is only the first step of Algard, and the second step is naturally to seek the living force that stands by his side. Algard has also made preparations for this, and he is ready to reward and promote those who have performed well in the battles of the Northland Fortress——— and after clearing the heirs of those nobles, there will definitely be many vacancies.
To put it bluntly, Algard is actually a redo of what his grandfather did back then.
Promote commoners to nobility.
The difference was that those nobles at that time could unite and unite against the royal family, or even start a civil war. But this time, the nobles' forces were almost completely wiped out, and Prince Yargard will completely control the entire army by bestowing titles on these civilian soldiers and warriors!
As long as he can reclaim the glory of recovering the Northlands, then Prince Algard can strike at the nobles and sweep them away completely.
If these nobles dared to learn from their ancestors back then——— it would be even better!
In fact, Duanmu Huai can understand Algard's thoughts, he is a prince, a prince destined to inherit the throne, and everyone expects him to become a king.
But the problem is that what they expect is ——— completely different from what Algard expected.
Algard was very sad to explain what he saw, the gap between the nobles and the commoners, and the contradictions between the two sides, to be honest, Duanmu Huai still has some appreciation for His Royal Highness the prince, after all, he can keenly perceive that the relationship between the nobles and the commoners is not as simple as a simple good guy and a bad guy, but a class struggle ——— the contradiction between the aristocratic class and the commoner class.
Algard's idea was to ——— completely destroy the roots of the aristocratic class, that is, their bloodline and elven magic.
I have to say that Yargaard caught it very accurately.
There is no distinction between good and bad in class struggle, only between life and death. Because of this, in fact, Algard didn't have a good impression of Euphelia's fiancée from the beginning. The other party is the daughter of a nobleman, and she is also a perfect and powerful daughter of a nobleman, and Yargard also knows that although he is a king, he is actually just a pawn. Because if you marry him, then Euphelia, as the queen, will naturally be able to influence the country as a matter of course.
Of course, it would be fine if Euphelia was a person with similar ideas to Algaard, but unfortunately, after coming into contact with Euphelia, Algaard was very disappointed to find that Euphelia was indeed a perfect aristocratic daughter——— as a beneficiary of the current system, she never wanted to overthrow all this, on the contrary, Euphelia also wanted to maintain the current state of the country as much as possible with her own efforts.
The most terrifying thing is that due to Euffhelia's powerful magical powers, she is really able to do it.
It can be said that this is completely contrary to Algard's idea, so instead of treating Euphelia as his fiancée, Algaard has in fact been looking for an opportunity to try to abolish this fiancée.
It has to be said that for Yalgaard, this is really a very difficult thing. After all, the Duke of Grandz's family, where Euphelia is located, is currently one of the most powerful aristocratic forces in the country, and has a good relationship with his father. As for their father and mother, they didn't expect Algard to become a famous king through the ages, they just hoped that Algaard could spend his time as a king with the assistance of Euffhelia.
But Yargaard didn't think so.
He wanted to change all that and put an end to the farce once and for all, but Yargaard also knew that no one wanted to support him. The aristocrats around him were all beneficiaries of the precursor system.
Originally, Algard also hoped that his sister would be on his side, after all, her invention of magic completely shook the foundation of elven magic. To Algard's disappointment, even Anicefia seems to be simply more focused on her own inventions, turning a blind eye to the dark side of the country.
Or, she's just afraid, afraid of change.
The reason why Algard made up his mind to win over Duanmu Huai was precisely because the other party mercilessly killed a noble heir who dared to find fault in public on the conference hall. This made Algard know a little more about Duanmu Huai, and it was obvious that the man in front of him should not be the kind of person who would be deceived by the rhetoric of nobles, and it seemed that he didn't seem to like nobles either.
Therefore, Algaard set his sights on Duanmu Huai, but all along, he did not have a good excuse to meet Duanmu Huai, fortunately, the children of the idiot nobles under his command gave Algard such a chance.
In addition to the position of the Inquisition, Duanmu Huai personally admires this prince, the civilization of this world is not too developed, but Algard is keenly aware of the danger brought by class contradictions, as well as the changes in the world after the spread of the human magic system, which is very powerful.
As Algard thought, the original legitimacy of the nobles was because only the nobles could use elven magic to protect the country and destroy the demons, so they were able to stand above everyone. But now, the emergence of the human magic system has brought a very big threat to the elven magic that can only rely on bloodline, which means that not only nobles, but ordinary people can also destroy the demons and protect the country.
Moreover, because the human magic system is more convenient, there will definitely be more and more users of human magic in the future. There will be fewer and fewer users of elven magic, and if human magic does not allow them to receive rewards and status commensurate with their merits, they will be oppressed by the nobility......... Well, that's where the real catastrophe comes.
Of course, there's another thing, which is at least a thing.
It's like a female frequency who likes to fall in love with the prince's brother, who looks.
The real men are going to rebel and overthrow the feudal rule.
Algaard also told Duanmu Huai that he himself would never marry Euphelia, and in the future, Algaard would probably find a woman from the civilian class to marry. After all, as a king, his marriage has a strong political significance, and if Algaard marries Euphelia, then in the final analysis, it is still the same old way to maintain the rule of the nobility, so if he wants to completely change all this, he will inevitably find a woman with a lower status and outstanding contributions. Instead of choosing Euphelia, who has a high status.
So what worries Algard is Anicefia and Euphelia.
Although Anice Fia doesn't know magic, I have to admit that she can really fight.
Euphelia is even more capable of fighting.
On the contrary, the ——— of Algard is actually not that capable of fighting.
Therefore, this is also the part he hopes Duanmu Huai can help, after all, Algaard also knows that once his plan is exposed, Aenisfia and Euphelia will definitely not agree with his idea, and the two sides will definitely fight each other, and by that time, it will be ten Algaard, and it is estimated that they will not be the opponent of the two of them.
But Duanmu locust is different, isn't it?
This is the biggest reason why Algard asked Duanmu Huai to help, he can do the rest by himself, and if he can't do it, he can do it as long as he masters the army, but only in the face of Aenisfia and Euphelia——— to be honest, he doesn't think he has that ability.
In this regard, Duanmu Huai responded very happily, if the two little girls know the current affairs by then, if they are stupid enough to resist, then don't blame the hammer in their hands for being polite.
Shortly after Algard left, Anicefia hurried in.
Behind her, there was a dejected Euphelia.
"What did you say to Yar?"
"It's a small thing, it's not a big deal."
Duanmu Huai waved his hand and looked at Euphelia.
"What's the matter with her?"
"Hey......... It's all my .........."
Speaking of this, Anice Fia couldn't help but sigh.
"Just now, Yar went out in front of everyone, claiming that Euphelia didn't know what to do, so he and Euphelia broke off their engagement..............."
"Oh..............."
Duanmu Huai is not surprised by this, it seems that Algaard has also been prepared, after all, he has complained to Duanmu Huai before, although Euphelia is smart, but he is not a person at all with himself, he has long wanted to find an opportunity to dissolve the marriage contract with Euphelia.
Now it seems that he has really caught the opportunity.
"Although I have explained to Yarl that we just stayed here and nothing happened............... Hey........."
Anicefia sighed helplessly, while Duanmu Huai glanced at her and withdrew her gaze.
At the same time, Euphelia also whispered.
"It's not His Highness Yargaard's problem, it's my responsibility, I know I'm His Highness Yargaard's fiancée, but I do this........."
"But with me and Tirti as your guarantor, Yar really doesn't give face."
Anice Fia grumbled dissatisfiedly, and Duanmu Locust shrugged her shoulders.
"So, what are you going to do next?"
"I don't know yet......... Well......... But you don't mind letting us stay for a little longer. ”
"That's all that?"
"Of course, since Yar has already dissolved Miss Euphelia's engagement, wouldn't it be a loss for us to move out again?"
"Hey..............."
Looking at Anice Fia, who puffed out her chest, Duanmu Huai shook her head.
He had nothing more to say.
