Chapter 51: Marriage...... Yes
Although in fact, it was still a little difficult to accept in her heart, but Victoria still cheered up and still replied very reluctantly: "Yes, you are right, mother. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
"Well, I'm glad you think so. Looking at Victoria's expression, Lady Mary frowned slightly.
She knew her daughter very well, and she naturally understood that Victoria was not as acceptable as she said.
Still, she pretended not to know, nodded, and said something like this.
"Yes, Mother, then ......"
"Then then I should tell you something. Lady Mary interrupted Victoria and said so.
“...... A few...... Things?" Victoria was a little strange, and a little surprised. Especially after her mother went on to say: "Yes, something about our family, confidential".
She thought that as the head of the Normandy family, she should already know all the secrets of the family. But now Madame Mary said directly that there were secrets to tell her.
This surprised Victoria and was somewhat dissatisfied.
If her mother has something to hide from herself, then she can naturally hide more things from herself. So how much did his mother hide from herself?
Thinking about it this way, is it really so important to my mother?
If she is really important to her mother, then why would she hide something from herself?
Thinking about it this way, Victoria is almost completely bad. I'm even starting to doubt the feeling of my life a little.
But of course, Madame Maria wouldn't let her do it.
Lady Mary was quick to give Victoria a convincing reason: "For it has to do with your private life—no, it should be said, with the life of our family, it is a slightly unspeakable matter." ”
Hearing Lady Mary say this, Victoria felt even more strange.
"What the hell, Mother, what do you want to say?"
Speaking of "private life", Victoria blushed slightly.
As a very well-educated, very strict, and self-contained woman, Victoria has never had an affair with a guy or anything - of course, William is an exception.
Yes, there have been more than once, all kinds of people, all kinds of hopes, all kinds of reasons to spread the scandal between Victoria and William. And the identities of the two of them are relatively close, and the two sides are often together, and they have a lot of contact time. Both sides are also handsome men and beautiful women.
With the current habits of the Old World, it is natural that it would be strange if there was no relationship between William and Victoria.
It's only right that there is an affair between the two of them.
However, there is one more thing that goes of course, and there should be another reason for this. That is, Victoria's own acquiescence.
Although there were times when she was worried about her future, for her own future, and for the legacy of the de Normandy family.
From the age of sixteen to the present, for such a long time, she has made quite achievements in economic, political, military, and various fields. For herself, for her family, and for the Kingdom of Briton to prosper, Victoria worked very hard - but, if it was for "personal matters", then Victoria really didn't......
Get married, have the next generation or something.
Originally, Victoria was a little worried at the beginning.
As I said before, Victoria was a very proud, even very arrogant person. There are very few people she has a crush on, and there are not many people who think she can compare to herself.
If her mother wants to force her to marry someone she doesn't like and thinks is bad for the sake of profit, then Victoria begins to hesitate and doesn't know what to do.
Is it for the sake of the family, obey the mother's arrangement, endure the humiliation and wronged yourself, or argue with reason, protest against the mother's arrangement, and control your own destiny or something.
For a while, even Victoria, who thinks very highly of herself and thinks that she is almost omnipotent, doesn't know what to do.
Of course, from another point of view, to change the topic, that is, if your mother admits that she can choose her own partner, then what should she do?
Think about it a little, think about it a little, and then think hard, think hard. After thinking about it like this, Victoria wanted to come up with a marriage candidate who could be comparable to herself and could make her feel satisfied.
It turned out that it couldn't be chosen anyway.
Yes, the world, though very vast, could not produce a husband who could satisfy Victoria......
No, there is actually one of them, that is, the man who can make her tolerate the scandal that can produce an affair with him.
However, the man had already started a family before that. Even before he really had the idea that he was really good, if he was him, maybe he would ......, Wilhelm von Hereford had already started a family and married two wives.
For Victoria, a proud man like her, she naturally had no way to share her husband with other women. So, the hazy affection for William soon disappeared under more, more important, more important feelings.
Then, as the dispute with the Russian Gothic Empire increased, Victoria regarded William more and more as his most important rival, and even said that he had to defeat him, and even that he had to surpass him.
Compared with these, the love between men and women, love and so on are secondary.
All this disappeared completely after she learned that she had a relationship with William, that is, a blood relationship, and that she was William's sister.
Of course, just like Victoria thought, she couldn't marry her brother, could she?
And then, my mother, and then Mrs. Mary's words.
What Lady Mary said changed Victoria's three views again, and made her understand a lot again.
"Ah, I didn't expect it to be like this. ”
It all shook Victoria, making her barely able to even think.
First of all, what shocked Victoria was their classical Gothic bloodline.
In other words, in the past few years, Lady Maria has not paid attention to her marriage, not actually not that she does not care about Victoria's marriage, but that the matter itself is of no avail.
After hearing about this, Victoria was very surprised, and at the same time, she had some thoughts about the same as William after hearing about it.
Other words.
"So, we can only continue to intermarry with the Herefords, and if we can't agree with the Herefords, then the de Normandy family will disappear as well?!"
"Although I don't want to ...... However, that's just the way it is. ”
Madame Maria, in a somewhat helpless tone, said, "If there were no House of Hereford, then the House of de Normandy would have disappeared." There is another thing you should know, that there is only one man in the House of de Normandy who is suitable for marriage. That is, Wilhelm von Hereford. ”
"- Does Mother mean that she wants me to marry William?!"
After understanding this matter, the fact of "marrying William" made Victoria even more surprised, and at the same time her heart was even more entangled. This kind of surprise, entanglement, and even panic even exceeded what his mother said before, and his family was a matter of the classical Gothic race.
"Yes, that's it. At this, Lady Mary looked a little fanatical, "It is in our favor, and even that our family has little choice—and of course, the Hereford family has not much choice. Hum Hum - Victoria, my daughter, you should know that, apart from the Hereford and de Normandy families, there were actually a handful of classical Gothic families in the Old World who adhered to their own traditions.
These classical Gothic families are as thin-populated as our two families, as a matter of course.
More importantly, these families are of no use to us, but to the emperor of the Russian Gothic Empire, because the heirs of their generation are all women. Hmph, hum, hum. ”
"If, if that's the case, then—"
If so, then the Hereford family naturally has a much larger choice. In this way, the possibility of our Normandy family surviving and reproducing is reduced! Of course, I will never let this happen!
So, of course, I killed them all. Speaking of this, Lady Maria's fanatical expression increased a lot: "That is to say, you should understand this truth, Victoria, my daughter, that is to say, now, in this world, there are only two classical Gothic families left who can marry and produce normal offspring." That is, the Hereford family of Russian Gothic, and the Normandy family of Briton!
Or, our two families huddle together and barely survive. Or maybe the two of us die together. It is simply impossible to beat who you want, and then live on your own. We only had these two options!"
After uttering the words that stunned Victoria, Lady Mary stared at her with eyes that almost made Victoria creepy, and then asked the question: "So, Victoria, my dear daughter, what choice do you have to make?"
