European Financial Emperor - European Financial Emperor chapter 216
216 Heirs of England(1)
The flight I enjoyed while relaxing for a day was quite impressive.
However, he broke up with the Egyptian girls in England.
Now it was to focus on marriage in England.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
The midnight bell rang.
Ophelia I took Yi Hwan after the wedding to a villa outside London, where there was an alarm clock that rang once every 15 minutes.
“The sound of the bell is impressive.”
“They said it was made by a Swiss engineer. Every single part is handmade.”
Other than that, Ophelia is a person with a very strict conception of time.
He did not tolerate wasting every minute and second, and he was a thorough human being who even worked sparingly with sleeping and chores.
For such Ophelia, an alarm clock was a must-have item wherever she went.
He even announced his intention to build bell towers in 12 places in downtown London so that citizens can hear the sound and work hard.
Ophelia went into the bedroom with Lee Hwan as soon as the 15-minute bell rang.
“The time has come. Now, let’s produce the heirs.”
“… … Do you really need to be on time like this?”
“This is the best timing the doctor said. I said no, not now.”
She didn’t have a bed with Yi Hwan adoring her, but she acted like this to get children out of necessity.
So far, Lee Hwan has married many women and slept without emotions.
Nevertheless, there were cases where a little emotion budded, and there were even women who wiped away tears when Lee Hwan left.
That means that the power of this dragonfly is great, but Ophelia couldn’t find such a feeling at all.
‘In a sense, she’s a great woman.’
Lee Hwan went into the bedroom as Ophelia wanted.
But the best thing here is that you don’t have to have a relationship in front of experts for self-proclaimed heirs.
In the midst of a change of dynasty, Ophelia swept away unnecessary royal customs at once.
The first thing that changed was the process of making this heir.
Fortunately, there was no stress because there was no expert observation (?).
About fifteen minutes passed again, and Ophelia released Yi Hwan, who had just done the job.
“Would you like to take a break and go back in?”
“… … Wanna take a break? You’ll have to rest for a few hours though. I also have the time needed for production.”
“Hmm, is that so? Would you like me to bring you some medicine?”
If they dated and got married, Ophelia would have run out of arrogance.
However, this is a purely arranged marriage.
Lee Hwan just shook his head.
“… … no.”
“Don’t think that I am too much. I, too, was having a very difficult day due to the stress on my posterity.”
People who were anxious because they could not eat Lee Hwan had at least one circumstance.
Because he knew it well, Lee Hwan said so and did his duty.
“Actually, I know how painful it is to sleep without romance. There’s no way I can’t do something like this just because I’m me, right?”
“Hmm… … .”
“But, after today, I will do my best because I don’t have to see the ministers trembling so much to see their successors anymore.”
“Then think about bringing in a concubine.”
“No, that is impossible. What they want is a son from you and me. Not a daughter, not a son. I need a son of blood to you unconditionally.”
Everyone had a very sweet body to have Lee Hwan’s son.
Lee Hwan had one question.
“Just because my son is born in another country, it will be difficult for me to give any special privileges to that country. However, relations between the two countries could be much smoother than they are now. Of course, some division of the property is possible.”
“I know. Some of the property may be inheritable, but that doesn’t mean a son born in a foreign country should ascend to the throne. However, it will be possible to unify the national theory in a symbolic meaning.”
“Integrate national opinion?”
“Think. So far, there has been no division of national opinion in any other country.”
As she said, no matter what country or region she went to, the factional fight was an unavoidable fate.
Of course, partisan fighting is not necessarily a bad thing.
Politics that are too biased to one side can ruin the country, so it can have a good effect on politics if both parties maintain their own opinions while maintaining a proper balance.
However, escalating partisan fights rarely have a positive effect because they are usually focused on satisfying self-interest, even for political reasons.
Britain was also in such a situation, so Ophelia wanted to draw out a card that unifies the public opinion somehow.
“If we, the UK, have come this far, retaining their former glory, they are no longer in a position to play a leading role in Europe. If that is the case, there is only one way we can rise to the ranks of great powers again.”
“Integrating national opinions and concentrating the nation’s capabilities on development, that’s it.”
“Right. That’s why you and your son are essential. Of course, there is also a sense of reluctance and guilt about using you as a tool. But it’s for the country. It is also for peace. I believe you will understand.”
Lee Hwan nodded at her words.
No matter how hard her body was, it wasn’t that she couldn’t understand her position.
However… … .
Ding! Ding! Ding!
The bell rang announcing it was time to go back to bed.
“Anyway, shall we go back in now?”
“… … ok.”

After circling the Federation once, Lee Hwan now crossed over to the Soviet Union.
This time, after two days of rest, he recovered his energy and was fully prepared.
Lee Gak was happy just that Lee Hwan had visited, and held a feast throughout the country.
Whoops! Whoops!
Firecrackers were heard everywhere, and the citizens drank together to commemorate the arrival of the head of the Federation.
Lee Hwan and Lee Gak sat in Gyeonghoeru Pavilion, drank a glass of wine and chatted.
“It seems like it’s been a long time since I’ve seen fireworks explode. Did your uncle tell you to make it?”
“no. It’s popping up to sell when merchants hold a festival. If the government gives permission and the government dispatches people, they advertise under control.”
“Oh, is your marketing strategy okay?”
Fireworks are absolutely necessary at festivals, so advertising like this wasn’t a bad choice.
Lee Gak, who was tilting his drink, asked Lee Hwan with a smile.
“By the way, have you decided which family you want to make a hundred-year pact with in the Soviet Union?”
“Hmm… … I do not know. To be honest, I don’t care which family it is. However, I like my ex-wife’s family.”
Lee Hwan was obviously wearing a top hat.
However, because of Lee Gak, who insisted on forgetting about that cliché whenever he had time, it was being forgotten from some day.
Lee Gak knew Lee Hwan’s heart well, so he said something.
“I’ll be honest. When His Majesty changed the routine, our family was on the verge of extinction. Fortunately, there was a family that sent a daughter to him because he was a distant relative, but he ran away with the daughter saying that he was of catholic blood. Originally, I had planned to go to Europe with my Majesty, but they told me that there was no marriage there.”
“Um, so the marriage was annulled?”
“It’s like that. But at that time, His Majesty was at an important crossroads, and I thought that if we knew all the background of our family, we would not be able to focus. That’s why I didn’t tell you.”
It was only then that Lee Hwan seemed to know what Lee Gak’s sincerity was.
He couldn’t help but smile bitterly.
“Your uncle must have suffered a lot.”
“To be honest, I don’t care because I have developed a lot of tolerance, but your Highness must have been very shocked.”
“Haha, I am an adult now. I understand all of that. That’s why he shot himself when he was carrying out the purge.”
Lee Hwan directly fired the signal to end Joseon’s dominant politics.
I don’t think about the appearance of aliens anymore, and if they seem to raise their heads, I will fire a cannon to put an end to them.
“I honestly don’t think powerful families are needed. I just want her to be a wise, benevolent, thoughtful and well-educated woman.”
“Are you planning on leaving your own heir now?”
“I can’t help it. Queen Elizabeth urges them to do so.”
“Haha, our Queen of Holland is also a heroine. I wonder if there will ever be a lead woman who will follow him.”
“It would be great to have such a woman.”
Lee Gak smiled softly.
“It’s not that beautiful, but there are wise women.”
“… … Oh, right?”
“Originally, we were going to get a key the next day and let them see each other, but I’ll bring it up right now. It seems like they want to see the good in that area too.”
“What is your family doing?”
“We are from a family of international students. One of Toegye Lee Hwang’s pupils was an adult in the family, and he has little wealth because he has sacrificed his family for the sake of the people around him. It is said that it is difficult to maintain the house that they own, so daughter-in-law in the immediate family has been managing the house without slaves. It is the men who do the sacrifices and cook the food.”
“It is a rare family in Joseon.”
“They said: It is said that there is no choice but to suffer because there is no family. But even in this way, he said he would be happy if there was something he could give to the people.”
If everything Lee Gak said was true, then Lee Hwan thought that she deserved to become the national mother.

Moreover, I felt that such a family could raise a proper patriot king.
“Uncle, may I know a little bit about the family in my own way?”
“You don’t. Wouldn’t it be better to be good if possible? It’s nothing else, it’s something that determines the successor.”
In order to find out if all the information about her is true, Lee Hwan ordered an internal investigation to the Central Intelligence Agency.
However, it was a light investigation to determine whether all information about her was true or not, rather than an intense introspection.
A few days later, Lee Hwan was able to receive a report from the Central Intelligence Agency.
The content of the report was as follows.
“Kang Hee-won, turning 29 this year, is famous for not getting married until quite late. However, it is said that the reason she couldn’t get married was because she was taking up and feeding the orphans in the neighborhood.”
“Have you raised orphans?”
“Are you saying that you were raising local orphans while you were growing old as an old virgin?”
“There is nothing I haven’t done before raising orphans. It is said that he did not even come down from the mountain at all in the fall because he went up to the mountain behind the town every day to pick chestnuts and hoard them.”
It means she was doing what the country was supposed to do.
The gossip about her continued.
“Not only the orphans, but also the poor people in the village, they are famous for helping at any cost. Even if you starve yourself, you will never pass the poor person.”
“You have a good temper.”
“He is famous for his kind heart, but he is also well versed in art and calligraphy, and recently he has accepted Easterfield’s studies and is learning medicine and even pharmacy.”
She couldn’t have been a great woman.
It was not difficult for Lee Hwan to know that the rumors about her were true.
He decided to marry.
“Kang Hee-won, I will marry her.”
