"Levi has been born, and we have to hurry up and get married.
Otherwise, he will be an illegitimate child."
According to imperial laws, illegitimate children have no inheritance rights.
Anna's child was born without being married to Lorne.
Legally, he was an illegitimate child.
However, Anna obviously didn't want to hear what Lorne said about her child, and the little girl also handed over the matter of re-identification to Levi to Lorne.
"My child is not an illegitimate child.
His name is Levi Habbs, the legal heir of the Habbs family.
I don't want to hear anyone say that he is an illegitimate child.
You have to resolve this matter as soon as possible."
Because of this, Lorne had originally suggested that Anna just get pregnant and marry him and inherit the title of Grand Duke.
It's a pity that the girl's face does not allow her to appear in front of the northern nobles in such a state.
Now if she has any problems, she will blame them all on Lorne.
Knowing that Anna had such a personality and became a mother before she was twenty, he didn't expect the girl to mature all of a sudden.
Anyway, he was just testing Anna's attitude.
As long as she valued Levi and wanted that child to inherit the entire northern territory in the future, then all subsequent problems would be easily solved.
"This matter is relatively easy to handle.
After you became the Grand Duke of the North, you asked me to handle the affairs of the North on your behalf.
With my method, our son will be the new Sir Habbs before he is one month old. " At the beginning, Anna had said that she would only temporarily take over the position of the Grand Duke.
In the future, when her brother comes back or there is another suitable candidate, the girl will take the initiative to abdicate.
But now that she heard that Lorne wanted Levi to become the new Sir Habs, the girl chose to acquiesce.
Sure enough, people are actually selfish creatures.
Even Anna, who had always said she was unwilling to be a Grand Duke, chose to allow Lorn to steal things that belonged to his brother because she wanted to fight for status for her child.
If Anna was told that Otto was not dead yet, Lorn wanted to know what the girl would do.
No choice.
Should she abdicate voluntarily as she promised before, or should she close her eyes and let Lorne continue to help Levi become the new Sir Habs?
The ending was actually very obvious.
Lorne still remembered Anna saying that if her brother's death was confirmed and a suitable heir could not be found, she would make Otto's child the new Sir Habsburg.
But looking at Anna's expression now, the nephew has just completed the arduous process of giving birth to the son he gave birth to.
The beast has chosen a good time to convince Anna.
"The problems here in the north are relatively easy to solve, but the empire has been in too much chaos recently.
I'm worried that in the near future, when those heretics take over the entire empire, they will set their sights on our northern border."
He has not made it clear to Anna that Lorne is planning to join forces with Keira.
The reason is of course that pregnant women are particularly prone to temper fluctuations.
Once Anna is angered, who knows what the girl will do.
And after giving birth to a child, a girl whose thinking has changed will definitely not be as persistent as before.
"Is the threat of heretics so great?
As for Keira and old Stuart, I will kill them myself."
Due to Anna's dissatisfaction with the Sea Duke, Lorne did not even tell her about Athena.
But paper can't cover the fire.
Now that Anna has regained her freedom, sooner or later she will find out that Tiaris' biological mother is Athena.
Therefore, Lorne was prepared to explain some things slowly, so as not to cause trouble if a fire broke out in the backyard and hurt his good daughter.
"The heretics have occupied most of the empire, and they have also canceled the inheritance system of our nobles."
Exaggerating the threat of the heretics, Lorne said, "The Stuart family had already been wiped out when they landed.
The Duke was also history.

There are only a few small fish left in the entire Stuart family, and your wish to do it yourself cannot be realized.
Moreover, Keira's side is almost unable to hold on, and it is believed that the heretics will take over the entire empire in less than two years.
At that time, we will have only two options left in the north, either surrender."
"We northerners will not surrender.
Even if we fight to the last soldier, we must protect our land."
As Lorne expected, Anna, who was born in the north, would never take the road of surrender.
Without surrender, the only thing left is to fight to the death.
"But heretics are not easy to deal with.
When fighting them, I don't have much confidence in victory."
This is the truth.
Give Lorn enough time and he won't worry about the Li family.
But if it were a one-on-one challenge now, he wouldn't have the confidence to use the remaining reformers to defeat the Li family, which has guns and cannons.
But Anna doesn't think so.
She thinks that the number one army in the northern border is a bad habit of arrogant northerners like them.
"Didn't you defeat the orcs?
I heard that there is another monster.
How could we lose with the strength of our troops in the north?"
Not understanding the difference in the technology trees of the two sides, Anna's thoughts actually represent the aspirations of most people in the North.
Ordinary soldiers, Lorne doesn't need to explain to them.
On the contrary, making them feel certain to win is also a way to boost morale.
But Anna couldn't think so, and carefully explained to the girl what muskets and cannons were.
He even exaggerated their role, and it wasn't until the pastor took the child back that Lorne stopped talking.
After taking the child and looking at it for a long time, Anna answered Lorne: "Then what are you going to do and surrender to the heresy?"
"If those heretics give us a good condition, surrendering is actually not a shameful thing."
After speaking against his will, Lorne saw Anna's unhappy expression and continued, "But our surrender can only protect our generation.
It was safe and sound, and by the time Levi grew up, the heresy had already established a foothold in the empire.
They will definitely not allow the existence of the Northern Territory by then, so if possible, I still plan to fight them decisively. " Just now, Lorne said that he was not sure, but now he wanted to fight the heretics.
Anna, who heard the hint in the man's words, asked the man directly: "Tell me, how can we defeat those heretics."
The Habs family's foundation must not be destroyed in his own hands, let alone let his son inherit a mess.
Anna's idea is very simple, that is, to solve all the troubles in their generation.
Feeling the girl's determination, Lorne finally revealed his plan.
Join forces with Keira and use the power of the Pope to fight against heresy.
After kicking Keira away afterwards, Lorne also agreed to Anna's desire to kill her enemy personally.
"As long as the heretics are driven away, I will execute Keira in the name of Emperor Guilt.
If you want, you can do it yourself
