Chapter 559 Private Conversation at Night
Adila put her hand on her husband's chest and felt the beating heart. When she first got married, she was a little uncomfortable with the too strong heartbeat. As time went by, , gradually gained a sense of security.
In the lack of light in the bedroom, she put her head on her husband's shoulder and whispered,
"What's wrong? Are you worried about Masnow and the others again?"
Imrik did not move and allowed his wife to come over and hug him. Sighing silently,
"Not only the current things, but also the future things..."
"The kingdom needs to change. This is an inevitable thing. If we continue to follow the previous autonomy policy and let the nobles rule their subordinate territories, it will be difficult for us to make further progress. Action." Adira knew very well what her husband wanted to do. In a centralized kingdom, there are now 30,000 elven soldiers under the palace. These are supported by the kingdom's finances, but more militiamen rely on The local nobles came to convene.
Even though the rule of the Dragon Tamer family has made people somewhat forget the politics of co-governance by nobles, this influence still exists, and the prince's orders are often not directly conveyed to the ears of the common people.
Accompanying this are various policy issues. The palace has issued a large amount of funds to subsidize people's livelihood, but many of them are still chosen by the Dragon Prince to invest in militia training. This matter is indeed in line with tradition, but it is not in line with Imri. Ke currently wants to work hard to increase the national policy of fertility.
"The number of newborns last year was far from what was expected. There were less than 2,000. Compared with Qingyan Port's fertility rate of nearly 10%, I feel worried." Imrik rubbed his brows, although he tried his best to promote fertility. , but the effect is minimal.
The number of newborns is not even as high as the number of people who died naturally or in battle. In addition, Asur will feel the call of Asuryan when he is old and think that life has become numb and abnormal, and choose to commit suicide. The population of the kingdom It is actually showing a slow decline.
The situation in Caledor is in sharp contrast to other kingdoms. The era of maritime trade gave the people money, and they became pregnant while pursuing enjoyment. Even though raising children is a troublesome matter, the palaces of all kingdoms have Complete subsidy policy.
But when it was Caledor's turn, a group of warriors only wanted to gain fame on the battlefield, which really embarrassed Imrik as the prince.
"The proposal for women to join the army has always been on the desk. We must change the domestic public opinion situation and shift the focus to people's livelihood. Otherwise, both the marriage rate and the number of newborns will decline further." A headache, this is
Im Rick's current thinking is that the reason why Avalon was able to return to normal soon after the war was because of Elsa's unrelenting blessing, which forcibly increased the fertility rate.
None of the gods worshiped by the mainstream in Caledor control fertility, and now that Sotek has been introduced, they just want to fight and kill all the Chaos scum and rats every day.
Imric turned around, and even in the darkness, he could still see his wife's gentle, watery eyes,
"Introducing Elsa's faith, do you think this is a feasible thing?"
Adila knew very well. , this is the husband asking his own thoughts. If Elsa's influence in Caledor is expanded, then the Eternal Queen will have more reason to interfere in some matters.
Emotion is emotion, and identity is identity. The identity difference between Imrik and Alarielle determines that this emotion must be mixed with many other factors.
"I don't object to this matter. It just allows Dracnir to have a companion. I also want to meet Alissara."
Imrik felt a little guilty, not only for his wife, but also for Alissara. I only met her once when my daughter was born.
This was a last resort, as Drachnir was able to deprive Sotek of the concept of Son of Sotek by relying on the ceremony he and Minasnir performed in Chakua.
But Alisara cannot. As the future eternal queen, the phenomenon of dragon transformation must be restrained. The ceremony only replaces Sotek with the side of the dragon father, rather than completely eliminating it. If he was too close to her when he was young, the efforts of the priests of Avalon would be in vain. Compared with the vague divine power of Elsa, the power in the blood is undoubtedly more obvious.
"Well, I will discuss this matter with Alarielle and build Aisha's large temples across Caledor."
Adira nodded, suddenly remembering a person in Lothern, and changed the subject, "You and We get along quite happily with Phyllis."
"It's not bad, but she still refuses to go back to the palace with me. She just wants to catch spies to prove her ability."
This made Adira smile. I have known about the existence of Phyllis a long time ago. After all, she is the maid who has accompanied the Dragon Prince for more than two hundred years.
Perhaps it is this long waiting that proves the firmness of her heart. A girl who hides love deeply in her heart can only silently look at the back of the person she loves, but dare not express the slightest love.
It's really a shame and sad.
"She is a big shot, and people have asked me about my family background a few times before." "
So you said she was my mother's adopted daughter, which made people afraid that they would meet me in the future, so you gave up the idea? "Imric slapped Adira's butt angrily, causing her to roll her eyes.
"In a sense, this is indeed a true thing. Don't think I don't know. There is a room in the palace that has been prepared for Phyllis. Miranda will clean it every once in a while." "Then
. The room is almost moldy, and there is nothing that a girl should have. It is all about maps and military intelligence analysis." Adira snorted coldly. She was a bit too
stupid to think of the former Dragon Prince as an innocent man. He I'm just more interested in dragons than women, but that doesn't mean I'm not interested.
"By the way, if you really plan to go to Kislev, Masno and the others should be enough." Adira who asked the question felt puzzled. Imric had already sent out enough With the power of Masnow, Davian, Iron Wolf, Creon, and the invitation of Belannar and Eltharion, plus the Sun Army led by Ku Ga, this army is enough to fight a large-scale battle. battle.
"I don't worry about some things, mainly because..." Imrik thought about it for a while, but decided not to speak out about it. If this fate were to befall him, he would only sneer and say that everything would change.
But when the matter concerned his wife and daughter, his confidence was slightly shaken.
"It's best that you don't know. It's not a good thing anyway." "
Then I won't ask." Adira pouted, feeling a little dissatisfied, "Then who are you going to take? Minas Nil is the only one who can do it." Wake up, only Ingersos can cooperate with you in fighting now."
"Kukulza, Tehenhoin has made a new toy. I took a look before, and it's quite powerful." Seeing Adira With a slightly worried look, Imrik squeezed his tight waist and abdomen in annoyance, "There is nothing to worry about. I will never fight against the undead champion this time. I will only serve as a pendant for Kukulza."
