Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

Vol 3 Chapter 117: Marriage March theme

Nashan sat on the swing that couldn't stop swinging in the garden, and looked at Joanna, who was squinting with a satisfied face next to her. The queen's previous injury was not serious because of the assassination, or it should be very light. However, she was so frightened that she could not even participate in the New Year Mass.

Compared with Lucrezia ’s assassination, there are not many people who care about Joanna. Even Jeffrey ’s wife, Xia Sang, just sent someone to inquire about it and there was no news.

Although not necessarily concerned about whether the eldest aunt is concerned, Joanna's mood is obviously not very good.

Ferdinand has been dead for more than half a year. Joanna, who gradually got rid of her grief for her husband ’s death, is more concerned about her situation, but now it seems that her situation is really not too good. The former Queen of Naples seemed to have a dispensable attitude. This contempt made Joanna really unbearable. Without Nashan, she really did not know how to spend every day.

Nashan is an excellent lover, although he is a Bohemian, but maybe it is this kind of strange feeling with a little alien taste that makes Joanna deeply fascinated by it, not to mention when she repeatedly feels this After the physical joy brought to her by the strong man, she almost completely forgot her husband who could not make her enjoy being a woman because she was so sick.

Joanna is now a happy widow. As for the identity of the queen, it will only add trouble to her once she thinks about it.

Because of Nashan and because she accidentally saved her life, Joanna had a lot more affection for Sophia than before. She sometimes also invited Sophia to her room to talk to her, of course almost all She was talking, and Sophia was listening, but because of this, Joanna sometimes felt that Sophia was really a very qualified listener, at least not being impatient with her complaints.

Joanna now only has to complain about past memories and the status quo.

Monteiro's death hit her even more severely than she was assassinated. When she heard that the key opportunity was assassinated, Joanna was depressed and abandon herself.

For her, Monteiro is her only hope in Rome. Although the cardinal has been somewhat cold to her since coming to Rome, at least the cardinal can say a few words for her in front of the pope. Man, Joanna has long stopped counting on them.

Now that Monteiro is suddenly dead, Joanna feels she is in a daze in Rome, without any dependence.

If it were not Nashan, she even wanted to leave Rome altogether and hide in a monastery where no one could find her.

With her eyes closed, Joanna heard faintly a footstep. She did not open her eyes. She was not worried when Nashan was beside her. She had seen Nashan playing with a saber in front of her. The dazzling look made Joanna completely fascinated at the time, so that when Nashan entered her room that night, the queen fell down like a conquered alien slave in front of the Gypsies, letting him go again and again Once conquered her body.

The coming person seemed to stop a short distance away, and then the swing moved Nashan away. Joanna couldn't help opening her eyes gently and saw Nashan walking towards the garden gate, where Joanna vaguely saw Alexander's figure.

"What's the matter?" Nashan asked Alexander looking at him. His face was not good-looking. It was easy to think of an annoyed old man who was looking at the insincere son-in-law with his nose raised.

"Something to report to the queen."

Alexander said very cleverly before he glanced at Joanna in the garden. He did n’t know what the two men had just done in the garden, but thinking about the ice and snow, he really wanted to remind these two to be careful not to Chilling, after all, this is an era in which a cold or fever can kill you.

But he didn't dare to open the mouth in the end. Speaking of the trouble caused by Barrendi's sudden visit last time, and Sofia was so violent at the time, Nashan didn't show up at all, which made Alexander feel really strange. So, thinking about this, he thought it was better not to disturb this pair.

Joanna was a little surprised by Alexander's arrival. She sat up slightly on the swing and wrapped herself tightly with a thick coat, because she didn't want Alexander to see that her clothes buttons were almost completely unbuttoned.

"Your Majesty, there is something to report to you," Alexander gave a little salute and then looked up at the queen. "King Frederick just gave an order not long ago, he will hold a coronation ceremony in the Naples Episcopal Cathedral, although this is just what he just got News, but I want to invite you to attend the ceremony, the messenger will arrive soon. "

Joanna looked at Alexandria unexpectedly, then looked at Nashan next to him, and then seemed to come out with an angry "ah" shout!

"Does he want to be crowned and invite me? Is he insulting me?"

Joanna roared angrily. She couldn't even take care of the shoulders exposed in the gap of the jacket pulled by the excitement. When Nashan walked over to comfort her, she had stood up angrily from the swing, her eyes angry. Staring at Alexander.

"I will never attend his coronation ceremony, I cannot forget that he actually drove me out of the palace, and then he drove me out of Naples again," Joanna pulled back angrily because she was completely angry in the past Forgetting the embarrassing queen in her clothes, when she arrived, she simply wrapped her coat tightly around her chest, leaving her smooth shoulders exposed to the cold air and Alexander ’s gaze. "I know why he did this. He was worried. After all, Sang Xia is still there. She is married to the Pope ’s son. He is worried that his son will not succeed in the throne in the future, but I do n’t think his stupid son has this blessing. "

Alexander pouted slightly, and he somewhat admired the queen's foresight, although she said it purely because of hatred, but Frederick's son finally failed to touch the throne of Naples.

And he can't help but admit that Joanna's comments on Frederick's son Alfred are still very pertinent.

"I'm not going to participate in his coronation ceremony," the queen finally repeated with a more accented tone. "If he has any dissatisfaction, you can send someone to tell me, or simply cut off my poor annuity every year, anyway. It ’s not enough anymore. I ’ve become a poor widow in Rome who no one wants to take care of. No one wants me! "

Because excited Joanna eventually turned into tears and cried, she kept crying and complaining, venting all the grievances of the recent period at this moment, when Nashan reached out and hugged her smooth When she was comforted by her shoulder, she cried and said she didn't stop using her fist to pat his shoulder, complaining that he only wanted to enjoy the joy of conquering the woman from himself, but never thought of helping her out of the predicament.

Alexander was slightly embarrassed to withdraw from the garden. He wondered whether the next Nashan would use his body to comfort the sad queen in the garden, but what Joanna said when she was angry made him I think it makes a lot of sense.

Although the succession to the throne from his nephew was not controversial, Frederick was obviously not very confident.

It's no wonder that he thinks so. After all, the marriage between Sangxia and Jeffrey is too threatening for him. No one can guarantee that in the future Alexander VI or other people in the Pogia family will not Sang Xia's children also threatened his son in the name of inheritance rights.

Because of this, Frederick demanded a formal coronation ceremony recognized by the Pope, at least with the participation of the Pope's messengers, and only then would he and his descendants have the legal right to be recognized.

In exchange, Frederick asked the Bishops of Naples to publicly support Caesar Borgia as the new cardinal.

This news was mentioned in the letter from Count Modillo to him, and it was also the reason why the Count explained to him why he was asked to find a marriage.

"We must make sure that we have a friend who is strong enough, reliable, and able to help us in many places. There is no doubt that Della Rovere meets all these conditions. The most important thing is that he also needs our help. I believe The interest of the Archbishop of Genoa in the cardinal position will make him seriously consider our proposal, and whether it is the talent you show yourself or the influence of the Modillo family, it is enough for him to consider this marriage more seriously. The role needed is by no means a trivial person, which means that I am personally satisfied with his daughter Valentina Della Rovere as a candidate for your engagement. The reason for this is that this lady is not only the archbishop ’s favorite 'S daughter, and because he inherited a territory early, he has an influence in Loveley's family that other children have not. "

The count ’s very thick letter wrote a lot of letters, but it was a general statement, so that Alexander should "take down" Valentina de la Rovere no matter what.

And Alexander finally knew why a marriage had suddenly hit his head.

Rovere hopes that someone will support him as a cardinal, while Modillo does not want Frederick ’s power to over-inflate and threaten his position. The Rovere family and the Modillo family have some kind of relative relationship, which is enough to become The combination of natural allies seems to be the only thing that needs to be considered is who should marry to complete this alliance.

Unfortunately, it seems that Alexander appeared specifically for such a marriage. After all, the illegitimate son of the countess and the illegitimate daughter of the archbishop are a natural match.

"You must contribute to this matter, which is very important to the Modillo family, and more importantly, it is even more important to you. If you really want to realize your dream in the future, then don't give up this opportunity easily. , "The Earl did not hesitate to use a large amount of pen and ink in his letter." The benefits of a wife with a strong background do not need me to talk more. To be honest, if it is not my wife who is still alive, I prefer to be Come by yourself but be the protagonist of the alliance, so do n’t waste this opportunity I gave you. "

The words in the Earl's letter made Alexander look at it for a long time, but he really wanted to write back immediately suggesting that the Earl kill the aunt who was younger than him, and then he could propose to Barondi instead of him. It ’s a famous name from Aragon, Alexander knew that this trick probably did n’t work.

Engaged with Barendi Della Rovere?

Thinking about it made Alexander feel a little headache.

Since that day, Sophia hasn't changed much. She still has nothing to do with her long sword, which is very difficult for men to use. Perhaps because she listened to Alexander's suggestion, she began to learn to use firearms.

This caused the San Marino Palace to become lively all at once. Deafening gunshots were heard all day long, and people on the street thought there was a riot.

All this looks normal, but Alexander knows that behind this seemingly "calm", there is disturbing restlessness.

He really couldn't understand what Sophia wanted to do, but the only thing that made him feel a little comfort was that Sophia seemed to become more sticky to him.

No matter day or night, Sophia always sticks to him as much as possible, and sometimes she reluctantly returns to her room until very late, which makes Alexander believe that maybe with a little nod, she will stay overnight.

These thoughts that made people feel annoyed but felt warm, made Alexander a little helpless but enjoyed the entanglement, but only when a letter brought by Luo Weilei's merchant ship arrived in his hands, some things The taste has changed somewhat.

When Alexander read the letter, Constantine, the messenger, looked at Sophia curiously. He had heard of the jaw-dropping things the Bohemian girl had done, especially when he heard Sophia from his servant. After throwing a sword to Barendi, and then dueling with her, Constantine would like to see this Sofia who made such a big noise.

Now looking at Sophia snuggling next to Alexander, just constantly stuffing her mouth with snacks, Constantine thought she was a lot more cute than she had seen before, but he didn't think the girl would be Barron Di's threat.

Especially after sending this letter.

"Dear brother, I hope you are not too surprised when you see this letter," beautiful handwriting appeared in front of Alexander. "Remember that you and I were talking about your ideas in Uncle Modillo's villa. At the time, I still think that your ideas are too naive to succeed, but now I ca n’t help but admit that I am wrong. Although our plan so far has only just started, I seem to have seen incredible prospects. Relying on the influence of Uncle Modillo, many chambers of commerce in Naples have agreed to join our plan. Although I have encountered some troubles in Taranto, I believe that if their businessmen are not stupid, they will eventually join, and because you are smart Expecting the Venetian trends ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ So their navy has become a big help for us. Because they need to build huge supply routes along the Mediterranean coast, they even need to provide them with cheap and affordable goods. Friends, so in this matter we are almost traveling with the fleet of Venice ... "

Seeing this, Alexander smiled slightly, and he knew what Zuosha said was to travel with the Venetian Fleet, which meant that a long route that almost captured the entire west coast of the Mediterranean Sea was slowly spreading out, although this route may even be in its prototype form. Not yet, but as Rosa said, this is a future with incredible prospects.

"Although it looks very optimistic now, not everything is going well." Suddenly, the changing tone of the topic in Russa's letter drew Alexander's attention. "Many places are saying that trade seems to be declining in recent years. Although there is no danger, but if it continues in the past, it will inevitably be worrying. In addition, there are still too few big ports supporting us. At least we have not stood in other influential ports except Naples, so Genoa, which has done business with you before, becomes It ’s a very important partner. If we can get their approval in the end, it will be very important to us, so my brother, if you can, I hope you can play a bigger role in this matter. "

Looking at the letter, and then looking at Sophia next to him and Constantine opposite, Alexander's face sank slightly.
