Common Sense of a Duke’s Daughter

Well, I feel uncomfortable with him and his words from earlier.

"... wait. That's not all you ever said, is it?

To my question, but he doesn't show any upset.

"What the hell is this about? I was asked about my sister's engagement by Leticia and only answered."

I just calmly returned the word.

Such a reaction is funny and laughs.

... that if it changes, it will change.

Once he...... extra because I watched him from afar when he was turning into Yuri's surrounding.

"I'm sad, aren't I? Bern. Haven't we spoken before with a broken stomach? Does that mean I haven't been recognized as my husband yet?

Me and Bern stare at each other.

Like reading the sincerity behind those eyes.

... Eventually, it was Bern who broke it.

"This is just my personal view. As bullshit, listen to me."

In the foreground, I nod.

After seeing his reaction, Bern opened his mouth again.

"Your Highness. I told you before." I've seen hell, "he said."

"Oh, you did"

"It was nobles like no other who created that sight. Your Highness. The former nobility gained enough 'nobility' because it brought the people together, and protected them, and fulfilled their full responsibilities. That is the result of being forgotten with the passage of time, and how long has it only served as an arrogant heavy stone that abuses the people? Your Highness."

"I know that. Is that why you decided to impose harsh penalties on those nobles in this case? After that, he said not to leave the same aristocracy."

On that question, Bern smiled weakly.

"... I said earlier. The nobility was forgotten with the passage of time. Isn't this the same thing?

"... right. You're right, Bern. That is why there is an urgent need to put in place a new system. Remember this wound, with further reform."

"It's the left. … but, Your Highness. And I think," If you don't change your consciousness, nothing will change in the end. "

"... what do you mean?

"Before you answer, Your Highness. May I ask you one thing?

"What?"

"What is the difference between nobility and people?

"That's a long and vague question.... Speaking of superficial, did you just say financial power? And the underlying differences in life and the differences in values that come with it?

"I agree, too.... and here's what I think too. If you think about it, that's all you've got."

"... what do you mean?

"It's only a difference due to where you were born and the environment. It has nothing to do with his temperament or talent. About men and women, that's the same. gender is just different and is not related to those of the person"

Bern was speaking pale.

It's as if you're facing yourself and summing up your thoughts again.

"Rails are struck at birth due to differences in identity and gender… at first glance, this is efficient. Whatever, because the future is decided at birth. The only thing we need to do is refine ourselves for that future. But by no means is talent given by birth. The son of a lord does not necessarily have qualities as a lord. The merchant's son is not necessarily blessed with business talent. Still, I wish I could bury that talent with the power of effort...... how many of us would do that before the promised future? Of course, there is no one at all who makes an effort..."

I open my eyes to Bern's words.

Understand the sincerity of his words.

That was a terrible outrage.

But you can never ignore it.

"Even if the future is set from the beginning, there is little room for growth, and I think there is nothing more to it than knowing and retrieving talented and competent talent that might have been gained. No matter what kind of system of government you build, in a closed and limited environment, you will eventually get stuck."

"... you mean you even have doubts about the identity system... especially the existence of nobility?

"It was nobility that created that hell. I think it happened because there were more people who were horseradished in the future."

His words like denying the existing identity system.

It's like overshadowing the country from the ground up, it's a rambling argument.

"But Bern. Assuming you say, 'Define the future by the temperament and talent of the person, regardless of birth or gender' … succinctly, it has become a meritocratic society…, will this time the pulling of the legs between those who aspire to the same path begin?

"Yeah, you're right.... Before that, I'm not denying all of the aristocracy. There are some good sides to things and some bad sides. It is true that, if successors are fixed in advance, there is no useless dispute or a good side to a smooth inheritance."

"... then what are you trying to say?

"'If people's consciousness doesn't change, nothing will change in the end'. Your Highness, what I said earlier would be outrageous.... not even arguing. That's the problem."

"What do you mean?"

"It's not even possible, it's not in today's environment. You stick to the idea that 'it should be' and you don't even have a choice. Why can't the people be involved in national politics at all? Why is it that women are prevented from entering society? My sister, the same. If she were a man, the country would never let go. A woman... what she's capable of is what you can already tell by looking at the Duke of Almeria. The benefits of marriage to a country that separates the sea are immeasurable... but even compared to that, I personally believe that the loss of mourning my sister from this country is greater. But the common sense of the people of this country will not allow it. Women 'should' protect their homes, women 'would' be better off getting married and raising their children, 'anyway' they are good opponents if they are to marry someone...... nobody disagrees because that idea presupposes it. We've decided not to see any loss to the country, trapped in the shackles of common sense."

"... your ear hurts. Trapped in the shackles of common sense, or..."

"I missed the point, Master Leticia. The answer to your earlier question about whether you will not regret it is precisely that. Even the sentiment of regret makes me uncomfortable. It is true that my sister is my eldest son and has excellent abilities. I feel remorse for the status quo, which is less capable than my sister's, but I don't have the sentiment right now about how this is because my sister is a woman. I want my sister to remain Lord Duke of Almeria in the country, beyond what I think she is."

Leticia had a full grin on Bern's words.

"Brother. What I want to tell you is exactly what Bern said earlier."

"... what?

"Well, brother. Forgot? I'm here to tell you that I want to be king."

To the words, he opened his eyes round as Bern was stunned.

"... half of this country is a woman. But all those involved in national politics are men... and this will only bias policy towards a one-sided perspective. Even when your grandmother was in Queen, it seemed like she was treated like a connection until after all your father inherited it. That's why I want to be the first king of women to incorporate policies from a new perspective. And let us create opportunities for the people of this country to gain potential and create new values."

Letty tells Dean in a clear tone.

"As I told you earlier, your brother has rarely slaughtered the country's governing mechanisms with an already big one. Once, it's broken. Creating and nurturing before this. I'll do it. As for the practice already, we are not only replacing your brother's work on the shoulders, but also turning our hands everywhere. I have no other practical abilities, you know my brother?

I laughed as much as I could at the words I had said.

"Hahahaha......! I didn't know that was what you wanted. I didn't even notice."

"Hehe... did it work, is that it?"

The two of us, laughing at each other.

"I see, I see. I have more practical experience than I already had with a frightened minister, and I have no problems with my abilities. I have a grandmother as a backshield and advisor. It's not a dream story at all. And then if anything happens to Prince Alfred and Prince Edward, the nobles can say it anyway."

"Right. So it's a coup. Brother."

Bern gives me and Letty a bewildered look again, unfortunately to be here.

"Exactly, right. But, Letty. It's in your head right now. It's a dream story, isn't it? Eventually you face reality, you're denied it, and you still want to create and nurture that thought in the real world?

"Brother. The absence of an ideal means that it is the same without a destination and wandering. If I could have been king, I, no matter how much I am denied, no matter how much I don't think, let's just keep dreaming. Let's keep looking ahead. We are very prepared for the journey."

Its eyes, seriously itself. It was a place of readiness.

"... if you say so much, Letty. You know the last thing I ever did to him?

"Yeah, sure."

Letty muttered in my ear.

Besides, I snort and respond.

"So don't worry, your brother has gone to war. I'll take care of it later."

"... to my sister, I don't want that much. Well... if that's all you know, I'm sure you can safely go north."

"Yeah. If you need anything, I'll take care of it right away. Your brother should concentrate on the war. I wish you the best of luck from Wang Du."

The bell rang. majestic and heavy, its tone.

When I heard that, I got up.

"I'm coming."

"There you go"

"Best of luck,"

And while I felt Leticia and Bern gaze, I left the room behind.
