Mmm, I had thought of Asumu being a secret wife for Kinzo but I changed my mind when I thought about her spending so much time with Rudolf. But if she just bore Kinzo's child, that could make some sense. Also, I'm not sure about this but doesn't Battler initially have a very different impression of Kinzo than the other cousins? If he had preferential treatment from Kinzo, it would support that idea, which I'll research a little later. It would ALSO explain why in the magic scenes Kinzo is always so upset with Battler: he should be the one true heir and yet he abandoned the family.
edit: mmm interesting thought: maybe Asumu bearing Kinzo's child would make it why Battler HAD to be switched and both wives would be kept in the dark about Battler's true origins. What if Kinzo's child dies as a still birth and so Rudolph keeps up appearances by switching in Battler, all this confusion about stillbirth/miscarriages aside.
