Conquer the Dawn of Heaven
Vol 3 Chapter 42: Dark eye
By the time Alexander returned to Marino Palace, Sofia's condition had improved.
It was just a common cold, and I drank a large bowl of hot **** soup. After sweating several times in a row, although Sofia drenched her body, her body became a lot easier.
Seeing Alexander, Sofia would jump off the bed when she lifted the quilt, but Alexander, who had long been guessed, quickly pressed it back to the bed.
Gently brushing the hair on Sophia's forehead, Alexander sat by the bed and wrapped her in her arms.
"Let me see if you are obedient."
Listening to Alexander's words, Sophia stretched her arm from under the quilt and pointed to an empty silver cup on the table next to it, then a painful expression appeared on her face.
Alexander smiled softly. In fact, he had already asked the maid before entering the room. Sophia was indeed very obedient to drink the whole cup of hot **** juice. However, in order to reduce the bitterness in her mouth, she was full. Eat a plate of various candied dried berries.
"It seems to have a good appetite," Alexander smiled comfortably. He didn't care whether Sophia would get fat because she ate too much sweets, but she was happy because she could eat. "But she can't eat too much, otherwise the teeth will painful."
Alexander commanded this, but he was a little depressed. Sophia was his wife, and according to the current customs, even if he immediately made her a child's mother, he didn't have to worry about punishment.
But thinking about whether she was worried about whether she ate too much sweets would make her teeth, Alexander felt that she was not a wife, but a daughter.
"Sophia, I might be away for a while ..."
Alexander said as carefully as possible.
But without waiting for his words to finish, Sophia, who was originally in his arms, stiffened, and then looked up at him with a look that made him startle.
The meaning in her eyes is very clear, it is clear that you dare to leave me and try.
"It's too cold and you still have a cold. I can't wait for you to be ill. You have to leave tomorrow," Alexander said in one breath. "So Nashan will take care of you during this time. . "
Despite the unhappiness, Sophia also knew that Alexander really couldn't take herself away this time, only to hear that Nashan would stay, she first smiled happily, but then looked at Alexander with a trace of worry.
Aware of Sophia ’s concerns, Alexander hugged her hard.
"Relax, I'm just going to open the way to Rome and other places this time, and nothing will happen." Alexander deliberately comforted Sophia with a relaxed tone.
Of course, he would not tell Sophia that he decided to leave Nashan. The first reason was to let Nashan find a chance to warm up with Joanna, and more importantly, to prevent that masked person.
Alexander would not forget the kind of look that the person had thrown at Sophia when he left. The hatred in that look even made him often startled at night, and then came outside Sophia's room to listen until he heard the girl breathing Before letting go.
Nothing can make people more persistent or crazy than hatred. Alexander has a hunch that the mask man will not give up this hatred. He must be waiting patiently for opportunities somewhere, watching closely with himself and Sophia.
Alexander believed that he would avenge the woman!
The snow is still down, and there is a white cloud everywhere. The whole world seems to be covered with a clean white veil. The reflection of the snow reflects the street at night extremely bright, just in the attic of a house across the street A pair of eyes were staring at each window of the Palace of Marino by this light.
On several occasions, that glance passed through the closed window in Sophia's room, and then turned to other places.
On the face without a mask is a very ordinary appearance, such a person will often not attract the attention of others if it is not the last moment, but in this place without others, the unhindered hatred in his eyes makes him 'S face is no longer so mediocre, but somewhat distorted.
"Where, where are you all," the man spit out a vague mutter in his mouth, his eyes fixed on each window, as if to see through the closed window, "Don't hide, let I see you. "He whispered incessantly, looking alertly for every opportunity he might find.
Suddenly, he narrowed his eyes narrowly and fixed on a window.
The curtain behind the window was originally very tightly covered, but I don't know why. It seemed that the light was lit behind the curtain at this already deep night. As the figure flashed, the curtain lifted from the inside.
In the light of the window, the man saw a familiar figure.
His breath immediately became rapid, and as the curtain fell again, everything behind the window was blocked, but he knew he had found the target.
Alexander's so-called preparation was to order Uliu to reorganize the Agri who were stationed outside the city.
Since Alexandria entered the city of Rome, Uliu took those Agri camps outside the city of Rome.
Even though there was a sudden wave of Bohemian orders to enter the city during the period, according to Alexander's order, the Agri remained outside the city.
Uliu had some complaints about this. He did n’t understand why Carlo could follow his master, but he could only wait outside the city. In addition, from the letter sent by Alexander, except for Dingwu Liu wants to urge the strengthening of training at any time. He seems to have no intention of letting the Agris enter the city in a short time.
Then even worse news came, and Alexander ordered the Agris to prepare to follow him.
And what makes Uliou unbearable is that this time Alexander still did not plan to take him.
The Moors finally panicked.
It is difficult for Uliu to imagine what would happen if he lost the trust of his master. Although he was not a contracted slave servant, the Moors still could not imagine what it would be like without the master.
Eventually he summoned up the courage to ask Alexander to travel with him, but this request was rejected by Alexander.
"You have to stay with Sophia, she needs a smart person to serve her, and of course watching her," Alexander said casually. "And I think you are doing well."
Alexander's words scared Ulliu's little black face into a little white face. He looked at Alexander secretly and terrified, not knowing whether the master's words were suggesting that he was coveting the hostess's beauty.
Recalling that he had confessed to Alexander the love of the former hostess before, the Moorish face was almost bloodless.
"I want you to protect Sophia," Alexander's expression suddenly became serious. "This time Nashan will stay with Sophia, but he cannot stay with her at any time, so I want you to protect her."
Uliu looked at Alexander with some surprise. He rarely saw Alexander's expression so serious. This and the Moors immediately lost their cranky thoughts. He gave a very serious salute and said: "Please rest assured, I The hostess will be protected. "
Alexander nodded slightly, despite his worries, because Sophia's body was just right, he could not take Sophia who had just recovered to travel in this weather.
So she can only strengthen her guards while she is in Rome.
Because he wanted to travel in this weather, Caesar generously gave Alexander a sum of money in the name of an order meeting for him to purchase enough winter travel equipment.
Alexander immediately bought a large amount of horse material and a lot of thick horse clothes. In order to prevent slippage, he also made a lot of wooden horseshoes specially prepared.
The day before leaving, Alexander stayed in Sophia's room for a long time.
He hugged Sophia and talked to her all the time. When Sophia finally listened to his promise that she would never let her down again, and finally fell asleep with satisfaction, Alexander quietly walked through the middle door and came Own room.
To his surprise, Nashan was waiting for him.
It's just that Nashan just looked around and looked at the door again this time, but said nothing more.
But before leaving, he said to Alexander: "I don't like this room."
Despite being in a bad mood, Uliu did his best to reorganize the Agri following the order of Alexander.
The Aggris in winter clothes seemed stupid. When they gathered together in groups of three or five, they looked like a group of bears who broke out of hibernation and came out to forage.
But the weapons in these people's hands made them much more dangerous. The blades with their radiant luster seemed daunting, especially after the battle in the Bruini Valley, these would only work in the ground. The farmer changed unconsciously.
Standing in the icy snow, matched with this gloomy and cold weather, is the kind of killing breath that only these soldiers who have seen blood show through these soldiers.
It was Cardinal Monteiro, the cardinal priest who made the temporary blessing for Alexandria, this cardinal with the sole purpose of satisfying the Pope's family, at the request of Caesar to do this blessing prayer.
Caesar apparently didn't want too many people to know the purpose of Alexander's trip, or that he didn't want too many Romans to know the dilemma they were facing, so the Blessed Mass was held in Monteiro's church.
When the Mass was over, Alexander did not return to the Marino Palace. Instead, he took Carlo and one hundred Bohemians to leave the city of Rome quietly and meet the Agrigians who remained outside the city.
Uliu stood on the steps of the Palace of Marino with a frown on his face. He was wrapped in a thick robe with a long hem, because it still had a woolen collar on it that looked bulging, but even then he still felt It's cold.
"It must be a chore." The Moors murmured and looked at their feet deep in the snow. Uliu could already imagine how bad the trip was.
By this time, he was a bit lucky to not be able to follow Alexander.
The Moors are obviously not comfortable with this kind of cold. In fact, such cold weather is rare even further north. As for the Romans, people have begun to suffer from the severe cold that they may face in addition to the children who do not know the worry. Endless.
A few days of heavy snow finally stopped in the early morning of the fifth day, but the sky was always gloomy. I couldn't feel a little warm sun exuding cold light. Many streets saw everything except a white snow scene It wasn't there, and even some houses in relatively low-lying places had been mostly submerged in snow because people had to jump out of the windows because the door was blocked.
The two priests struggled to walk in the snow, and each step had to jump up like a dance. After so long, they began to sweat and pant.
"May God bless."
A priest wanted to amplify his voice, but he was obviously exhausted, so when he shouted this prayer slightly hoarsely, Uliu standing on the steps did not react for a while.
"Where is your master, pagan!" Another pastor asked irritably. He used to want to raise his hand to slap the silly-looking Moor in front of him, and then it seemed that he found a donation box in his hands Call your master, tell him that he needs to donate to the poor in Rome in the name of the pope, and tell him that he can get a redemption sign issued by the authority given by the pope. "
It was actually two people who asked for money. At this time, Uliu, who fully understood the intention of the two men, stared angrily at the two pastors in front of him.
Because of Mahimo ’s reasons, Uliu did n’t have any respect for those who opened their mouths and cheated in the name of the pope. Even if it ’s not Rome, he might take a good look at these two things. Serious priest guy.
"My master is not here, but I can recommend you," Uliu paused deliberately. Seeing the excitement in the eyes of the two priests, he was more certain that the two men and Mahimo were walking together. "It's just me You need to know the origins of your two, maybe my master still knows your bishop, you must know that Cardinal Monteiro just blessed him. "
The two priests' faces were suddenly frozen with excitement ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ They looked at the Marino Palace behind Uliu with some fear, and after a little look, the two turned around at the same time, and one remained Shouting "May God bless", and the other holding tightly the donation box that looks like it was temporarily nailed with wood, like the two rabbits who can't stop jumping, stepping on the thick snow, one foot deep Shallow foot disappeared at the corner of the street.
Uliu looked at their backs with a smile, the hand hidden in the sleeve moved, and finally resisted picking up the snow on the ground and smashing it over.
Only when he raised his head to see the unwarm sun above his head, the Moorish face collapsed again.
"Fortunately, I didn't go to the north with my master, otherwise I might not see next spring." Uliu murmured again, and then carefully stepped on the slippery steps through the seam of the side door where the heat was leaking. Went in.
Uliu didn't see the shadow under the corner porch at the far corner, the two scammers he had seen through were watching his every move.
When his figure disappeared in the door, the grumpy 'priest' who was speaking to his companion whispered, "Go tell Dark Falcon that the Gombre is indeed gone, and now only his woman remains in the house . "
