Transmigration of the bastard lord

Old Alfred was woken up by the roar of the machine, lying on the bed and calling the butler's name several times, only to realize that the butler had been away for many days when he didn't get a response.

He struggled to get up from the bed, and the wooden bed made an overwhelmed squeezing sound.He got out of bed and walked two steps on the wooden floor to reach the window. The old viscount was bored for a while by the small room; he was even more bored when he opened the wooden window and looked at the ripped-down inner city wall not far away.

The two sons were employed in the castle system, and both became followers of the lord, allowing old Alfred to escape the public trial and become one of the very few survivors of the aristocratic class.But it was inevitable that his family's property was seized, and the servants were dismissed; he, his wife and children were driven out of the luxurious mansion, and lived in the outer city with the support of his son Willie Alfred. in a residential house.

As the management of the Alex Mining Company, Willie got his brothers into the mining company nearby. The life of the miners is miserable, but it is better than being starved on the street; it is just the treatment of the Alfred family Although it is good, the standard of living is still very different from before.Some of the young concubines left and never came back. The bastard named Jim even took his mother away and threatened that he had nothing to do with the Alfred family. Alfred was very angry.

Now old Alfred and his wife live in a worse place than the servants used to live in their family, and there are no servants to serve them; there is no hot water for washing in April, which is warm and cold, and the food they eat every day is even worse. Nothing in the past can compare.His wife and the lingering concubine were treating him with increasing disrespect, and he hadn't dared to lose his temper.

The hundreds of heads on the execution platform completely terrified this old noble who used to pay special attention to status and privileges.

Old Alfred looked sadly at the inner city wall being gradually dismantled, as if watching his sealed-up mansion and property being brutally destroyed in front of his eyes.Luckily, he survived the purge for the rest of his life. Instead, he felt unspeakably sad; his brother-in-law Kim Roger was arrested and sent to the mining area to serve hard labor, and Gordon Saul, who had visited Hein Farm with him, By relying on Frandy, he got along like a fish in water; if he didn't care so much about the privileges of the nobility and didn't offend Vivienne and Frandy, then with his son Willie Alfred's status in the castle, He should never have fallen to where he is today.

After a moment of sentimentality, old Alfred struggled through the corridor and down the narrow stairs.The small wooden building on the second floor has only four rooms, and the living room on the first floor is so small that it cannot be compared with the previous concierge.The house is empty, and the wife and the remaining concubines are absent; the son's savings are only enough to buy this small wooden building. Except for his master, the rest of the family are working for daily food.There were two steamed buns and a plate of pickles left on the dinner table. The empty old Alfred felt thirsty after eating these foods, but he didn’t know how to use a coal stove to boil water; after taking a sip of cold water sadly, The sad old noble walked out of the house with shambling steps.

The location of this small wooden building is very good, and you can reach the Civic Square through a [-]-meter-long street.In the past, many idlers would gather here, gathering leisurely or being attracted by jugglers, staying for most of the day.But now, the public square is empty, and those who have labor force are recruited away by various companies. Those who can't bear the hardship or refuse to obey the discipline are either sent to the engineering team or the mining area for forced labor, or kicked out to suffer from the eyes of their families and neighbors. Contempt, hang out in bars all day long to get drunk.Old Alfred walked half a circle along the central garden of the Civic Square, only to see some women in twos and threes sitting on the stone pier, knitting sweaters and chatting, and two cleaners in blue overalls hurried with brooms. Passed by; and none of the gentlemen who wasted their time was seen.

Old Alfred didn't want to get together with those citizens. He still felt that the title of Viscount that hadn't been removed from his head was shining golden and superior; The man who was wandering around made him feel extremely tight in his chest.

Sitting awkwardly by the fountain closer to the women, old Alfred, who had been neglected for many days, still wanted to get closer to the crowd.The women glanced at him a few times, such a fat person is quite rare among ordinary citizens; but obviously an obese gentleman can't attract much attention from the women, they continued chatting after a few glances, The chirping sound entered old Alfred's ears word for word.

"Have you heard? The matter in that tavern has been handed over to the magistrate. There must be another head on the execution platform. Ms. Nina may stand up for a public trial." A said the woman.

Ms. Nina's four words made old Alfred startled. Is that killing god going to kill again?It's terrible, all the women of Freddy's guy are like female Shuras.

"The lady of that family is so pitiful, she is such a nice person. Her knitting skills are the best in our area, and I have also learned several stitches from her." Another woman stopped and pressed her chest Said, "I hope Ms. Nina can punish him severely. If you won't be blamed for killing your own wife, can our life be better?"

"Men are so hateful, women don't make money, they say we are incompetent; let's make money, they blame us for making them lose face. The one in my family went to the briquette factory a while ago, and thought the work was too dirty; After transferring to the transportation company, I felt that it was too embarrassing to drive a car to deliver coal. Now that he has gone to the farm in the west, I hope he will not be driven back again. The uncles are doing a good job, but he is the only one who is not good enough... ’ one woman complained angrily.

"Isn't your son going to take part in the apprenticeship test? If the son is successful, the father will be almost there." The woman who spoke at the beginning comforted him.

Old Alfred's face was burning with anger; the ignorant woman spoke as if it were aimed at him.

"Yeah, I'm glad he was captured by Captain Renn on the dark day last year... That little bastard used to only know how to fool around with a group of people. After being disciplined by the lord, he is now obedient and polite." A few seconds A woman who had previously been outraged by her husband's incompetence mentioned her son's immediate emotion.

Old Alfred has mixed tastes, doesn't he, that bastard Willy is now even a stranger to himself as his father...

"By the way, when my son came home yesterday, he mentioned to me that Captain Rennes is going to set up some kind of women's protection association and write our rights into the law." A woman with a mature son patted her thigh Said, the other two women immediately became curious and asked repeatedly, which made her very satisfied, "He brought back a document and read a few to me; first of all, our personal property is protected by the lord and Captain Wren, No one shall infringe. That is to say, the money we make is our own..."

For ordinary people, policies that are closely related to their vital interests are the most popular. The woman who has internal information channels only focuses on property. As for equal rights in politics, economy, and family life, she can’t listen to it. I understood too well so I didn't pay attention to it; but anyway, as the lord of Hydesai, it is extremely strange for the aborigines of this world to actually introduce such a law to protect women's rights, even if they don't understand the meaning. enough to get their attention.

The woman showed off happily for a long time, and suddenly thought of something and slapped her thigh: "By the way, there is a very new rule! The right to divorce!"

This word is very new, and the other two women looked at each other for a long time, and asked uncertainly: "Divorce right? Let's divorce? Wouldn't it be messed up?"

She herself is also a woman who doesn't even count half a bottle of water. She just thought it was fresh so she wrote it down. She really couldn't say anything.

Old Alfred, who was eavesdropping and impetuous, struggled to stand up and walk home, what a mess, let the family divorce properly, Freddy must have eaten too much.

The old Alfred who returned home thought something was wrong. After all, he was born in a noble family and had received an elite education, so his knowledge was much higher than those superficial women.No matter how you look at it, this so-called women's protection law smacks of conspiracy - the nobles no longer charge marriage tax, and they don't care how the common people choose their lifestyle.It seems that Frandy, who interferes in the life of ordinary families, seems to be a bit full, but it is definitely not that simple.If women can freely choose to divorce, wouldn't it be more troublesome for nobles who rely on mutual marriages to organize alliances?That guy Frandy seems to be defending women's rights, but the wolfish ambition inside should not be underestimated!

It has to be said that elite-educated nobles are always very sensitive to safeguarding their own rights and interests.On the other side, Baron Gordon Saul, who also enjoyed internal information channels, was dumbfounded holding a copy of the "Hydsay Women's Protection Act" that was only distributed internally.

This "Hydsey Women's Protection Act" Fu Youguang directly copied the "Women and Children Protection Act" in the modern world. The various regulations in it may only be new to ordinary people, but they have different meanings for the rentier class. .First of all, giving women the right to marry freely and allowing daughters of each family to have the same inheritance rights and political and economic power as men has greatly discouraged the habit of the aristocracy to use marriage to strengthen alliances; All the wives and concubines of the head of the family have equal inheritance rights, which is even more vicious; the existing big families are trying their best to cultivate their sons, let the sons as the main branches consolidate their status, and ensure that the heirs of the sons will expand their ruling power from generation to generation. Family business; if there is no distinction between the concubine and the concubine, the more wives and concubines, the more children, the thinner the family business will be. After several generations, how can there be a so-called big family?In the land of Hydesey, how could there be any so-called aristocratic class that could pose a powerful threat to Frandy's ruling power?

Take the Sol family as an example. If the old traditions are followed, his three concubine sons will be a powerful help for the legitimate son Olliton Sol to develop the family business. Only two or three generations will go on, and the Sol family will become the city of Amp City. The new powerful family.But Frandy played such a trick, allowing the three sons born to his concubine to have the same inheritance rights as the legitimate son Ollieton, so the family business he worked so hard to accumulate will eventually be divided into four; when the sons are born Grandson, the family business must be further divided.Even if there are business geniuses against the sky among the descendants, they will not be able to accumulate enough wealth to dominate one side...

After the existing powerful nobles were strangled, Gordon Saul was very excited and ambitious to develop the Saul family into a new powerful faction.But now, Frandy's new policy has suppressed his ambition, so how could he not be dumbfounded.

Gordon Saul saw more deeply into the pitfalls of this protection law, but his vision still limited his understanding.The protection law stipulates women's political, economic rights, and freedom of marriage one by one, and also expressly prohibits all kinds of discrimination against women. The protection of women's property and freedom of life is also very detailed.Who would want to be one of the wives and concubines of a certain man who is paid the same as men for equal work and whose legal rights are not infringed?I am afraid that when this protection law comes into being, the first thing that will set off is the upsurge of divorce!Don't forget that in the marriage regulations, women can divide their property and get alimony in proportion to divorce!

Our party deals with the so-called big families. On the one hand, it promotes the status of women and enforces monogamy;Fu Youguang, the big killer that restricts family power within the system like the family planning system, hasn't come out yet!

In the conference room on the second floor of the city hall building, Captain Wren, the figure at the center of the whirlpool of the "Hydsay Women's Protection Act", was sitting on a high-backed chair that was a little bit too much for his size, and was listening to the lord with a dazed expression. His Excellency's explanation of his upcoming president of the so-called "Women's Rights Protection Association".

All the ladies in the audience laughed. Even the steady Vivienne and Mrs. Lilith lowered their heads and covered their mouths with their hands and twitched their shoulders. Ryan's sister, Ms. Xie Mier, laughed so hard that she shrank under the conference table.

"...In short, there are at least 40 women in Hydesey's population of one million, and you are their patron saint! Do you understand Ren?" He spoke dryly and ended up facing a big blank face Fu Youguang is extremely painful, just how did this IQ become a Tier [-] warrior!

Rennes with a demented face was also very painful, his pupils almost shrank into mung beans: "My lord, do you really think it's appropriate for me to do this? I mean, you mean if any guy beats his wife, I will Should I rush to his house and beat him up?"

Fu Youguang didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Of course you are not the only one in the so-called association, and you will not be required to do everything yourself, but you are the president of the association, and you are a benchmark and a deterrent to those who discriminate against women. Of course, you also You have to show that you respect the attitude of ladies, and treat all the women in Hyderside as your sisters. Well, that is Shemir."

Ren has always loved his sister very much, but Fu Youguang's statement still made him unable to understand: "...My lord Earl, I only have one younger sister."

"Hahahaha..." Ximil began to roll on the ground.

"Okay! You come with me." Fu Youguang slapped the table and stood up. It's better to educate this kind of guy who only has muscles in his head with facts.

Fu Youguang took Renn away, and the ladies in the conference room who came here to join in the fun were also preparing to leave.Nina pulled Xie Mier, who was rolling with laughter, with a disgusted look on her face: "They are all in their 20s, so be more cautious, Xie Mier."

"Haha...I hate Nina, it's not like you to say such words! My brother's appearance is too funny, the Earl can really do it, haha..." Xie Mier's flowery branches trembled, and he was about to shrink to the ground again. , Nancy behind had no choice but to run over and hug her.

"But this women's protection law is very good... Well, maybe Captain Renn is unexpectedly suitable? What the Earl does is justified!" Shirley, who was flipping through the internal documents, said seriously.

"It's because the rules of the human world are too bad! We snow werewolves believe in a lifelong partner, and a man only has one wife in his life." Nancy, who was holding Xie Mier, said disdainfully.

"Yes, but you are still married to a human being. Or are you planning to divorce, Nancy? Captain Rennes will support you!" the silly elder sister Sally said without any scruples.

"..." The other ladies looked at Sally with sweat on their foreheads.

Nancy also thought about it seriously for a while, and said rather entangledly: "If it was the old Earl, I would do it like this. But the current Earl is not annoying. But the previous Earl did not introduce such a rule. , the current Lord Earl will not make people want to leave him..."

"...Okay, don't really talk about this kind of topic seriously." Mrs. Lilith had to stand up, "Everyone has something to do, right? Go get busy. Although the current Earl is tolerant and kind, please don't Forgot, he was Sig Frandi."

Before Fu Youguang came through, the concubines were indeed taken care of by Lilith, and it was too unrealistic to expect that guy Sieg to know what it means to be gentle and considerate.Now that Lilith had spoken, the ladies stopped laughing and said yes and left.

Fu Youguang took Renn directly to the basement of the city hall, where the bodies of the victims of the two injury cases were parked.Lifting the white cloth and pointing to the housewife with bruises on her face and overturned eye sockets, Fu Youguang introduced to Ren: "Her name is Joan, she is 22 years old. In four months, she took over [-] sweaters from the textile factory. outsourced work to earn silver coins to improve family life. Her husband worked in the mining area and engineering team successively, but was transferred away due to exhaustion... relying on his wife for food made him feel ashamed, and beat his wife more than a dozen times in a month and a half. This time, the last time, he actually smashed the wine can into his wife's face..."

Ren, who is also a man, became more and more annoyed as he listened, his fists rattling; Fu Youguang introduced the three sisters who committed suicide like him. The youngest girl's immature cold face made Captain Ren's eyes bloodshot, and his nostrils sprayed blood. Gritting their teeth, they wished they could crush their parents to death.

"See, Ren. In places where you and I can't see, the weak women who should be taken care of are bearing the burden that their lives cannot bear. You and I, all the people in our castle, should be their protection But what have we done? None of us can protect." With a heavy heart, Fu Youguang pulled up the white cloth and covered the faces of the three sisters who had lost their most beautiful youth.

Turning around to face the furious Ren, Fu Youguang looked directly at his team leader, and asked earnestly and word for word: "You are a powerful third-tier fighter, Ren. You have many people You are a powerful warrior with strength in people's eyes. But you tell me, if strength cannot be used to protect the weak, then what is the meaning of strength?"

Captain Ren was taken aback, and stared blankly at his lord earl; the lord earl's gaze was frank and direct, although it did not have the kind of sharpness that could make people fearful, it still had the power to pierce people's hearts, making people have to mention All the energy to think about his question; the sloppy Ryan realized for the first time a problem: when did the always awe-inspiring Sieg Frandi, who is in the clouds and cannot be profaned, become so ...Frank and sincere?

"I won't force you to take a position you don't want, Ryan. You just need to answer me, are you willing to take on the burden of providing protection to the people of Hydesai? Your sword, willing to serve those who are weak and need you Are you fighting for the people you protect?"

"Yes." Ren, whose brain reaction is always a beat slower than the reflex nerves, blurted out the answer before he could understand Fu Youguang's words; he was stunned by his own voice. Compared with doubts, being valued, The expected enthusiasm made his blood boil faster, and he immediately added, "I am willing, Lord Earl, I am willing to protect them."

Fu Youguang was happy from body to heart, and patted Ren's thick arm (which couldn't reach the shoulder), and said happily: "You didn't disappoint me, Ren. The reason why the strong are called the strong , because he can protect the weak! A person who is strong but only fights for himself, no matter how strong he is, has no contribution to human society. What is the point of being strong? The most basic standard of a civilized society is not to abandon, not to Abandon the weak and provide every people with the protection they deserve; only those who can promote the progress of social civilization can be called true heroes.”

"Yes, my lord." Ren, who didn't understand, but was excited and excited, nodded solemnly.

Fu Youguang let out a long breath, took Ren's hand and walked out: "Then let's talk about the specific work and social responsibilities of this association..."

Davis, who attended the meeting and followed him all the way to the basement, squatted in the corridor resentfully.

Ren and the ball of light walked farther and farther away, and Davis, who was deeply lonely, scratched the wall: "Social responsibility, promoting the progress of social civilization... just listening to it is very interesting! Did that bastard from another world completely forget me?" It exists? It's hateful... No matter how I look at it, it's more useful than that muscular idiot..."

Lonely and lost Davis, before worrying about not being able to assign important tasks, it would be better to improve your conceited impression...

The author has something to say: Little Theater

Daniel: ... [Davis, who has always been afraid of trouble and conceited, actually showed his desire to be valued... Well, who would help him tell the Earl.
