Okitara 20nen Nandesukedo! Akuyaku Reijo no Sono Ato no Sono Ato

A month after the rebellion of the Earls of Signature was suppressed,

The abandoned territorial province was finally implemented on May 25, 1997, the history of the Kingdom.

From the kingdom of Tristan on this day as a border, the "noble territories" disappeared, and all the lands were made king's.

Originally there were a hundred or so aristocratic territories in the Kingdom of Tristan, but integration and reorganization were to take place, with 72 "provinces" to be placed in total.

"I've put together a small area of baroness and Viscount territory, but I'd like to reduce the number of prefectures. Shall we proceed in stages?"

As for Fioria, around fifty provinces were the first target.

This is because it refers to the home of the previous life - Japan.

"There will be a lot of problems at first, but if you have to, I'll go around following you."

If Fioria cares about it, she can traverse it in less than an hour from the edge to the edge of the Kingdom of Tristan.

I usually did my job as a prime minister's deputy in court, while I was going to rush as soon as there was trouble in each province.

... but contrary to Fioria's expectations, there was not a single incident that seemed to fly out of court.

"That's kind of a clap.... Lex, I'd like a cup of tea."

Fioria sighed somewhere bored as she cleaned up her paperwork for the day in the court's Chancellor's office.

To such a look of the Lord, the long-time youth butler - Rex leaned on the teapot, smiling bitterly.

"Shame, ma'am"

"No way. Nothing's decided best, right? I just wanted to say... I miss doing too much. I wonder if this is what it feels like to have a child nest."

Currently, most of the provinces of the Kingdom of Tristan are governed by personnel seconded by the court.

When it comes to where the talent comes from, everyone can be Duke of Florence.

Twenty-one years ago

At that time Fioria had also invested heavily in educational reform in the territory as a lord's agent, setting up a number of colleges to develop human resources, in addition to enriching compulsory education free of charge.

One of them is also a bureaucratic training agency, where educated people are now at the heart of the administration in all provinces.

"Ma'am, may I ask you one thing?"

Fu.

With the same quiet expression as usual, Rex called out calmly.

"Abandoned Territory Prefecture...... Let the bureaucrats sent from the centre rule the place, not the nobility. I think it's the best way to bring the country together with the king as the top. Since when did the lady think about this system?

"Well, when is it?

With a deep smile on his face, Fioria put her mouth on a cup of tea.

"Guess what. Is there an answer in you, Rex?

"Before that, let me confirm that 21 years ago, you placed a bureaucratic training agency in the Duke of Florence in anticipation of an abandoned territorial province."

"Yeah, it's not a mistake. If I may add, in the first place, all my educational reforms look to the future of the entire Tristan kingdom. Politics, Economics, Culture, Technology… In all aspects of the future, the results will come."

Fioria's story is never about exaggerated advertising.

As the saying goes, in later history, human beings from the Duke of Florence will develop the Kingdom of Tristan to a great extent in various fields.

They will be called the "Golden Sons” by the alias of Fioria, the "Goddess of Gold”.

"When I said the answer, I thought about the abandoned prefecture after enrolling in the aristocratic school… maybe six months have passed since I started living in the Wang capital."

Fioria speaks.

It was definitely the autumn of the 15-year-old, he said.

At the time Fioria exited the dormitories of the aristocratic school and interacted with people of different identities.

You think you're an up-and-coming young trader?

You think you're a bard traveling around the place?

You think he's a mercenary captain of a hundred wars.

In dealing with such people, Fioria was grasping exactly what the world was like.

In other words...

In the time to come, the most important thing is economic power.

Nobility can no longer remain in its place merely as nobility.

If they were sweet to their natural identities, they would be ducked by the clever merchants who shifted them, until they wore them out.

This can be said not only for the aristocrats, but also for the whole country.

Even if we entrust territorial management to a human being who is merely born into a nobleman, we cannot hope for efficient development.

Rather, it just makes them food for merchants and other countries.

If we are to think about the future of the Kingdom of Tristan, we should train and leave to them the experts in territorial management.

And the result of that is the abandoned prefecture.

The reform of education in the Duke of Florence was in its preparatory phase.
