Conquer the Dawn of Heaven
Vol 7 Chapter 256: Uliu's highlight moment (middle)
General Victor de Condé stood in front of a slightly blurred, yellowish glass window looking at the garden in the courtyard outside.
This is the royal palace of Pamplona, the capital of the Kingdom of Navarre. For this place, General Conde’s only impression is dirty and chaotic.
It’s no wonder he thinks this way. The palace here does not have the luxury and pomp that a country’s monarch’s residence should have. Of course, Paris is not as good as it is. In comparison, Conde believes that Pamplona’s palace is not even comparable Where is the lavish castle in my hometown?
The Condé family is still rich, and their status is not low, especially since they have a family named Bourbon that gives them a long face. Victor de Condé has even listened to the elders more than once. I've been talking about it, maybe there will be a French king from the Bourbons.
It's just that these are too far away, Victor de Conde has always felt that this has nothing to do with him.
But perhaps it was suddenly turning around. After the Third Romagna War, although Louis de Bourbon was coldly treated by the king because of his bad appearance in the war, he still thought of his relatives very much, so he asked Louis Twelve recommended young people in the family of Victor de Conde.
Obviously, Louis XII did not want to refute the face of the Bourbons completely without mercy, and the performance of the young Condé in the war was indeed impressive. Therefore, after careful consideration, Louis XII let De Conde, as Charlene's deputy, travels with him to Navarre.
Louis XII's calculations were very good. He knew that this time Navarre was different from conquering other countries in the past, and he relied more on the smooth diplomatic methods of Charlene.
As for De Condé, he is obviously a little tenderer, but it doesn't matter. With Charlene, the "professional household of the occupation army", the two should be able to cooperate very well.
The return of Charlene to the French mainland was somewhat sudden, because the news from Seville was so surprising.
On the day he heard that Gonzalo had defeated Seville, Charlene rushed to see Queen Akarina and bid her farewell.
Queen of Navarre has of course also heard about this amazing thing. Like Charlene, she also knows the importance of this news, so she promised to continue with Victor de Conde in front of Charlene. After the cooperation, Charlene was also commissioned to convey her concerns to Louis XII.
Although it’s not that the French are also eyeing Navarre, Castile and Aragon are even more worrying. Now that such a big thing has happened in Iberia, Queen Acarina thinks it is necessary to know as soon as possible. What kind of reaction the Karmapa will have.
Now the young Kongdai has become the supreme commander of the French army in Navarre.
This made Victor de Conde, who suddenly took the lead after Charlene left, was both excited and apprehensive. Although he was a good general on the battlefield, he had never had experience alone in the past.
For a period of time afterwards, Victor de Condé carefully organized the French and Navarra army according to the previous arrangements of Charlene, and at the same time, together with the Portuguese, kept facing Castile. Harassment in northern Asia.
Victor de Conde knows how important the opportunity is to him and his family. Whether he can gain the trust and favor of the king depends on whether he can do his errands satisfactorily in the following days.
It's just that he didn't expect that, just 2 days ago, Ferdinand suddenly sent an envoy.
Although there is no official statement about the true purpose of the Castilian coming to Pamplona, Victor de Conde has heard some reliable rumors.
Ferdinand actually wanted to marry his daughter Maria to Queen Akarana's just-born son. When he heard the news, the young General Conde was taken aback for a while.
De Condé was surprised not because the age difference between the two parties in this family was really touching, but he did not expect that Ferdinand would still remember Navarre at this time.
In Victor de Conde’s opinion, Ferdinand’s dealing with the Queen of Sicily at this time was enough for him to have a headache. After all, the French had just learned how powerful the queen was. As for the Duke of Rome Thesia, the young General of Conde On the contrary, the impression is not deep.
But even so, a prince of Castillaria who suddenly appeared should be enough to keep Ferdinand busy for a while, but now he will suddenly send someone to Pamplona, Victor de Conde How much was overwhelmed by this unexpected change.
Obviously, although the young nobles of the Kong Dai family have made great achievements on the battlefield, they have not yet had enough experience to deal with these turbulent situations in the court. Now he is racking his brains on how to deal with this incident.
De Conde is very worried that the Navarre will be shaken.
It's no wonder he thinks this way. The Upper Navarre region has always been under the influence of its two strong neighbors, and several kings even came from the Aragonese royal family.
Although the Queen Acarina and his wife took the opportunity to suppress the pro-Aragonese forces after the French sent troops this time, with the arrival of Ferdinand’s messenger, the situation is bound to change greatly.
Victor de Condé sighed secretly in irritation. He didn't expect that this would happen after Charlene left, and for a while he became uncertain about what to do.
A servant came over, and he said a few words in Victor de Conde’s ear, and immediately caught Conde’s attention.
"Wait, you mean a Moor who claims to be the messenger of the Duke of Rome Thesia?"
"Yes, my lord, the Moor has been taken to the master."
"Really," Conde asked as he took out two gold coins and stuffed them into the servant's hand. "Go and find out what the Moor is here for."
Seeing the servant leave, Victor de Conde immediately began to circle around the place.
The people of Ferdinand came, and the people of the Duke of Rome Thesia also came. If you add your own Frenchman, a small palace of Pamplona suddenly gathered the envoys of three European powers.
This made De Conde excited and at the same time more nervous.
"A Moor?" Conde muttered a little strangely. He was curious how the Duke of Rometesia sent a Moor as a messenger, although he was not as hostile to the Moors as the Iberians. But they don't think they will hold any important positions in the European courts.
Obviously, the young nobles of the Conde family did not know the situation of the Roman Thea as much as Charlene, so they would not know what the Moorish was like many who were already familiar with Alexander and his men. effect.
Like Victor de Conde, who is not clear about the importance of Uliu, is the palace director of the Palace of Pamplona.
So when I heard that a Moor was going to see the queen, he just took a look at it and put the guy who didn't know the heights of the earth into prison.
Uliu didn't panic. He knew that although his situation seemed a little dangerous now, he wouldn't be cut off casually.
The key to this is the gifts he brought.
He was not soft when stealing from those merchants, so although there were not many things, the prices were not cheap.
And he deliberately let many people know his identity, and then he was brought to the manager, so he didn't worry that someone would embezzle those gifts.
And most importantly, he left a letter in the gift.
This letter is now in the hands of Queen Akarina of Navarre, and the one who makes the queen hesitate in the face of this letter is someone who can write such a letter. In her opinion, it should not be just like this. As the palace chief said, he was just a "daring Moorish liar."
This letter briefly mentioned Ferdinand and the Frenchman, although it was only a few sentences, but it made Akarina feel that the other party clearly knew her current situation.
At least the sentence "For my master, the existence of the Kingdom of Navarre should be more in his interest", it seemed that Queen Akalina suddenly found a reason to distinguish herself.
"Where is this Moor now, maybe I should meet him," she said, and she looked at the gifts on the table. "Even if he is really a liar, for such a generous amount, I I also want to know what his purpose is."
The queen said quietly and put away the letter.
She doesn't believe so much about the people around her now, because she doesn't know who will be the spy of the French or the Aragonese. Even when she is with her husband, she tries to keep her mouth tight.
The general manager was a little puzzled. The reason why he would report this to the queen, as Uliu guessed, was only because the arrival of the Moor was already well known, so he could not deal with this person privately.
But even so, he still found it strange, why did the queen decide to see this man after reading the letter?
At the same time, the news that the Duke of Rometesia sent an envoy has also been heard by the French and Castilians.
For a while, the atmosphere in the palace of Pamplona, which was already faintly drawn, became even more weird.
At this time, Uliu was resting.
He was so tired that he rushed from the Loire Valley to Italy, and then turned back on the way to the south over the Pyrenees. In a short period of half a month, he traversed a lot more roads than others. Although young, he also felt extremely tired.
After being thrown into prison, he immediately found a comfortable and cool place, lay down and slept beautifully.
So when Mr. General arrived in the prison, what he saw was not a prisoner who was nervously waiting for his death, but boy Moore who was sleeping soundly.
Uliu was awakened by a scoop of cold water. He was violently pulled up and out of the cell, and then, while still dazed by two soldiers, walked into a large room.
This room is obviously much larger than the vault, and there are many people in it.
When Uliu was dragged in by the soldiers, he was already sober.
So he immediately recognized a person who looked beautiful and behaved properly.
When he saw the man, Uliu was slightly surprised.
He didn't expect that the messenger sent by Ferdinand was actually this person, which made him feel that his somewhat impulsive adventure was obviously worthwhile.
This person is a close friend of Ferdinand, the clown who has been following him.
Andres Rogge didn't know that he had been recognized by the Moor who made people frame him. In fact, even in Zaragoza, there were not many people who met him in person.
Most people know that there is a very favored clown around Ferdinand, but not many people have seen his appearance, and even fewer know his name.
"Come in front of me," Queen Akarina waved to the guards holding Uliu and asked them to let go of the Moorish youth, and then she deliberately glanced at the envoys of the two countries who stood on both sides and were hostile to each other from the beginning. "You said that you were an envoy sent by the Duke of Rome Thesia, but I saw no other evidence besides the gift you sent, so how can you prove that you are the envoy of the Duke?"
"Your Majesty, I think this messenger of King Ferdinand can prove to me that even though he is only a clown," Uliu told Andres Rogge, and then he ignored the clown's surprised look. Looking at Victor de Condé on the other side, "Although the respected Lord Charlene is not there, I think there are still some of the nobles from France who can prove my identity."
"Shut up Moors, I don't know where you came from, but I can guarantee that you will die because of this sentence."
Andres Rogge's face turned gloomy, he could accept the provocation of the French, or ignore the irony of the Castilian, but he could not tolerate the contempt of a Moor.
"My life belongs to my master, the noble Duke of Rome Thesia and Prince of Castilla. As for who your life belongs to, I don’t know. After all, for someone who always covers his face with a clown mask , This shouldn't be a big deal."
Uliu unceremoniously refuted Andres Rogge, and then he ignored the Aragonese who was already holding the hilt of the sword, but suddenly turned his head and said to Victor de Conde: "If I That's right, Lord Charlton should have seen King Louis by this time."
"How do you know where Charlene is?" De Condé asked in surprise.
"Because not long ago, I just ran into Master Charlene on the way to the Loire Valley~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and we had a good chat."
Uliu said, grinning at the young Conde, showing a row of neat white teeth.
Following Uliu's words, Queen Akarina, who had been watching this scene, finally showed an unexpected look on her face.
She didn't care too much about the identity of this Moor. Although she felt that maybe he really had some mission, her real purpose was only to relieve the pressure brought by the envoys of the two countries through the appearance of this person.
But now looking at this boastful Moor, the queen suddenly discovered that perhaps the appearance of this person would bring her some unexpected surprises.
Sure enough, what Uliwu said next surprised everyone.
"Please forgive your Majesty," the Moor bowed deeply to Queen Akarina. "I lied to you. Although I am indeed the servant of the Lord Duke of Rome Thesia, the one who sent me was not the Lord Duke, but the Lord Duke. Her Royal Highness the Grand Duchess of Laguia. I have come to propose marriage for her and His Royal Highness's son, His Royal Highness August Alexandru Valleola."
