Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

Vol 7 Chapter 210: Sophia: Moment of ambition

At the mouth of the Demwica River, a small but well-dressed team waited patiently.

The messenger sent by the Grand Duke two days ago had already returned to Bucharest in advance.

The news brought back by the messenger is exciting.

Wallachia chose to act on the side of Naples in this Sicilian kingship change and received an unexpected return

It is said that only the money to bribe the Ottomans when passing through the Strait of Poloprus caused the Bucharest people to be distressed.

However, compared with the wealth brought back by the granddaughter, those are just small amounts of money.

Just thinking about these is enough to make people excited, and it is said that the agreement with the Kingdom of Sicily has also obtained enough benefits for Wallachia.

But what made many Wallachia nobles more concerned was the strange signs vaguely revealed by this expedition.

The movement of the Wallachia army through the Bolpulus Strait has made many people feel unbelievable. Those who previously opposed the expedition were stunned because of this unexpected unexpectedness.

This could not help many Wallachians appearing in succession, and some wondered whether this meant that there might be signs of a change in relations with the Ottoman Empire.

After all, as relations with Northern Bosnia become more and more subtle, Wallachia has already prepared for a possible war with this neighbor, so if you can temporarily relax relations with the Ottomans at this time, then for all-out It is much easier to invest in Bosnia.

Because of all these considerations, the nobles in Bucharest are even more eager to know the truth from the Grand Duke.

The gradual emergence of boat shadows on the river in the distance caused a commotion among the people waiting on the shore. Although they knew that the ships would take a long time to arrive because of the upstream, they still crowded to the shore and anxiously waited for the return of the expeditionary army.

On the largest ship in the fleet, Sophia stood on the deck and looked forward eagerly.

Although she knew it was easier to take a boat than by land, she was already in a hurry at this time.

She has been separated from the children for too long. Since the children were born, she has not been with them for such a long time.

Before the excitement of returning to Sicily and the subsequent battle took up too much energy for her, so although I missed the child, it did not seem so strong, but now as I get closer to home, that kind of miss is getting more and more difficult. inhibition.

Sophia feels that her children should be happy. Whether it is status or love from her parents, she feels that her children have the right to get the best in the world.

It was for these reasons that she accepted Ruosha's terms and sent her troops to Sicily.

When it was almost noon, the fleet finally docked at the pier on the banks of the Demwica, watching the fleet of soldiers coming down the same boat, the nobles of Bucharest secretly speculated whether the rewards and pay for this expedition Match the price.

When they saw the large and small boxes that began to move down along with the female concubine's entourage, looking at the salute that gradually piled up on the shore, the eyes of the nobles became hot.

Speaking of the female Grand Duke's shortcomings that are not good for words is indeed a big trouble. This undoubtedly makes the status of the followers around her more important.

Because these people almost controlled Sophia's relationship with the noble ministers, they became the hottest upstart in the court.

This once worried the Wallachian nobles, they were afraid that some of them would become minions who played trickery, and even more worried that there might be confidants of the Duke of Rome Theseia, so that Wallachia eventually became the duke Vassal.

But now looking at the Grand Duke, not many people think so again.

Sophia's unusual toughness, or simply being willful, began to make it difficult for the Wallachia to accept.

But gradually they found that the waywardness of this Archduke not only did not cause trouble to Wallachia, but on the contrary, it was precisely because of her toughness that who saw him, which made Wallachia not only rise after the battle of Bucharest Even now there is a posture to fight for the Balkan hegemony with Bosnia.

The ministers were anxious to know that the mood of the expedition did not affect Sophia. She didn't even care about being with those people, so she hurriedly hurried to Bucharest.

When she finally entered Bucharest when the sun was slightly westward, she was unexpectedly informed that in addition to her lovely children, there was an unexpected guest waiting for her in the palace.

The queen of Bohemia, Maria Astamara, looked at Sophia in front of her, with a complex expression.

She still remembers how the girl looked wild and untamed when she was brought to her in the first place. In order to train her into a qualified court lady, the queen had spent a lot of effort.

It was just that the queen had no choice but to give up her plan to change her. She also said to Nashan without worries that it might be difficult for her to find a suitable husband for her in the future.

These words still remember the Queen, but now it seems to be a joke.

This girl, who she thought might not marry, not only had a pair of children, but more importantly, she became a prince of a grand duchy.

Even the queen herself had to suffer from the turbulence of long-distance travel because of her close relationship with her. Of course, Nashan's company made her feel less annoying along the way.

The queen negotiated in Bucharest according to the arrangement of Ladislas II.

Although it is known that Sophia is not in Bucharest, the proposal brought by Nashan previously surprised Ladislas II, but he did not dare to make a hasty decision.

Regaining the Hungarian territory occupied by Austria is a long-cherished wish for the Bohemian kings of recent generations.

In particular, Maximian's cannibalization of Hungary, Ladisdas II was almost unbearable.

It's just that it wasn't very long since the last time I was taught to be a man in Austria. Although Ladislas II was excited about this suggestion, he was afraid to respond easily because of various concerns.

He feared that this might be just a means for the Duke of Rome Thesia to ease the pressure for the Italian war that is said to break out at any time, or that it was purely for Bohemian firepower to attract Austrians.

So he needs to know how much war determination there is in the Principality of Romagna-Tuscany or Wallachia once the war breaks out.

This is obviously not understandable by the messenger's account.

So the king of Bohemia simply asked his queen to rush to Bucharest personally to determine whether Bohemia could benefit from the war that was looming over Europe.

The Queen's presence surprised Sophia. Although she was anxious to see her children, she still respectfully met the Queen.

Regarding the queen, Sophia was somewhat affectionate. She even felt that the queen was close to her mother who was completely unimpressed.

Although the heavy classes at the Prague court almost drove her crazy, at that time she was very troubled by being forced to leave Alexandria.

The Queen's promise that she could become a noble court lady once caused Sophia to have the illusion of "maybe you can return to Alexander".

Only later did she discover that it was not the cumbersome court etiquette and dress that brought her back to Alexander, but her armor and sword.

Of course, she also likes dressing up now, at least she can obviously feel that Alexander likes her interest in wearing those luxury groups.

"I really can't imagine you risking passing the Ottomans," the queen looked at Sophia with incredible eyes, even though she knew she was standing in front of herself so calmly, but when she thought that she had passed the Ottomans, the queen would Can't help but feel terrified "Do you really think it's worth it?"

Sophia made a very simple "um" voice, and she was embraced by the queen.

"You are willing to do so much for the Duke of Rome Theseia, and still have children for him, but what can you get my poor child."

To the queen's complaint, Sophia showed a smiling expression. She kept making cheerful syllables and kept making gestures, chatteringly trying to let the queen know how happy she was.

And these happiness come from the man questioned by the queen.

"Your Majesty, in fact, the expedition brought by His Royal Highness is more abundant than anyone imagined," Bodped, who stood behind Sophia, also joined in. "We not only brought back a lot of loot, according to the With the agreement of the Queen of Sicily, Wallachia can have the right to use all the ports of the Kingdom of Sicily in the Mediterranean that can be affected."

"Oh?"

The queen's look changed slightly.

Although Bohemia is deep in continental Europe, this does not hinder their understanding of the ocean, and Queen Maria Astamara, who was born in the royal family of Naples, is even more aware of what this right means.

It was only when she heard the name "Queen of Sicily" that the Queen's heart felt somewhat strange.

As the Queen of Bohemia from the Astamara family, Queen Maria knew that the royal family of Naples had already died with Alfred's death.

The current queen is destined to be the beginning of the new royal family in Naples in the future.

This can't help but touch her, but it's only these emotions.

"Then you think war is inevitable?" The queen's expression gradually became serious.

The original warm atmosphere in the room seemed dignified, which made Sophia, who was thinking about her child, even more impatient.

Bodped looked carefully at His Royal Highness, and saw that Sophia did not mean anything, and could only say: "Your Majesty, as you might expect, the war in Rome should have been inevitable. It can be seen by sending Sicily without hesitation."

"Of course, but I still want to know how much that Queen Russa Kosenza Astamala is determined to fight this war. I mean, is she ready to fight the emperor?"

Bodped was about to answer, but was suddenly interrupted by Sophia who stood up.

Standing in front of the queen, Sophia gestured to her with excitement, the expression on her face was very excited, and also carried the kind of pride that made the queen feel that only when Alexander was mentioned before.

Sure enough, the female officer on the side respectfully explained what the Duke meant to the queen.

"Are you saying that this war was more about the will of the Duke of Rome Thesia?" Although the fact was true, the queen asked, "But you have to know that Maximilian had a very strong army in Lombardy, and He can send more troops there at any time."

Sophia nodded, she frowned like she was thinking about what to answer, and then made a few gestures to the female officer beside her.

Soon a map was placed in front of several people, looking at Hungary on the opened map, Sophia slammed it hard.

"Dear Sophia, I treat you as my own child, so I don’t want you to deceive me," the queen looked dignified. "We all know that the war between Wallachia and Bosnia is on the verge. At this time, I doubt if you can still send troops to Hungary. ."

"Your Majesty, we do have wars with Bosnia at any time, but this does not mean that we do not have the power to send troops to Hungary at the same time, so if you and His Majesty do not have to worry about Bohemia facing Austria alone."

Bodped looked at Sophia, and only after she nodded her permission, went on to say: "According to the arrangement of the Duke of Rome Theseia, we have signed an agreement with Archduke Carniola, We promise that once the war against Bosnia breaks out, both of us will attack Bosnia from east to west."

The queen's face gradually showed a strange look. She looked at Bodped and then looked at Sophia, who seemed to be absent-minded, and then whispered, "I didn't expect this."

"In fact more than that," Bodped continued. "As far as we know, Ottomans are likely to have a civil war, and by then they will not be able to continue their offensive against Poland, or even be unable to invade Europe for a long time. Your Majesty, this is a good opportunity to completely solve the Hungarian problem."

Bodepede's words made the queen breathe secretly, and saw Sophia staring at her, then nodded directly. The queen couldn't help suppressing the faintly excited excitement in her heart, and asked cautiously: "Osman will If civil strife occurs, can you be sure?"

"Ah~"

Sophia immediately uttered a triumphant monotone. She gestured her heart with gestures that even the queen could understand at this time, and then showed that peculiar look of pride.

"Is this the Duke of Rome Thesia telling you?"

This time, the queen could guess her meaning from Sophia's expression without anyone's explanation.

Seeing Sophia immediately nodded with a smile, the queen couldn't help but sink into contemplation.

She knows that, as Bodped said, www.wuxiaspot.com~ This is indeed a good time to completely solve the Hungarian problem that has plagued Bohemia for a long time.

This made the queen a bit worried that once he heard the news, perhaps no one could stop Ladisdas II from being eager to join the battle that spread throughout Europe.

A heavy muffled thunder sounded outside, and the sky gradually darkened, just like the clouds over Europa, the clouds before the rain enveloped Bucharest.

But Sophia was smiling and holding her twins and kept kissing.

After a long time, she pulled out two beautifully crafted ornaments from the luggage that the servants carried into the room. After careful identification, she put the ornaments with different characters on the delicate necks of her children.

In addition to the emblem of the Valleolo family, the ornaments are engraved on the back with "Auguste Alexandru Wallachia" and "Catherine Alexandra Bosnia".
