Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

Chapter 52: Alexander's promise

Many years ago, on the coast of the Tyrrhenian Sea at the northern tip of the Mediterranean Sea, a cape penetrated into the sea. Despite the erosion of the ebb and flow of the tide for many years, this cape has been submerged on the seabed and no traces have been seen, but this area has formed Many beautiful islands and harbors have become important trade hubs for the north-south routes on the Mediterranean.

Among these islands, the largest and most beautiful one is called Sicily.

The Kingdom of Sicily is composed of Sicily and the surrounding islands, as well as a city far away on the road.

Because it is important, he is rich, and because he is rich, he is watched. For many years, Sicily was like a child walking in the downtown area holding gold and was watched by countless people.

After changing hands several times, the kingdom was finally divided into two different countries more than two centuries ago. Although the dynasty changed and personnel changed, the two countries that were divided also once reunited into one. But in the end it was still separated again.

Two Sicilies, one south and one north.

Two Sicilies, one on land and one on the ocean.

Two Sicily, divided in half by a lighthouse originally built on the shore of the Tyrrhenian Reef.

Earlier, the pain that had to be forced to separate had caused many Sicilians to revolt and resist. They hoped to reunite, but this obviously did not serve the interests of those kings, so such efforts failed again and again until the original The people of one family and two countries gradually become rusty. Although they still claim to be Sicilians, they are used to using a lighthouse to distinguish between North and South, or to call the former brothers in more other ways.

Even people gradually regard the idea of ​​still attaching to the unity of Sicily as a joke, thinking that those who always think so are ridiculous dreamers, even lunatics.

Alexander did not know whether Duca Modillo, the Earl of Naples, was a lunatic, but he knew that this person should be considered one of the most ambitious people of his time.

Although he has never seen it, as long as he thinks about what he has experienced so far, Alexander is surprised to find that he has been planning by Modillo since he has been with the unlucky fat Modillo. A huge plan circled around.

And this plan, even before he came to this world, has already begun to prepare for preparation.

Such a person is enough for people to look at him cautiously, even if the person is "just tortured by the two demons of disease and poverty in the escape he has experienced" as written in his own letter, but such a person still remains It is unsettling to think about it.

"Want you to go to Naples?" Osborne looked at Alexandria with his mouth open, and because of the accident, he forgot the habit of the tape measure around his neck "or the invitation of Count Modillo?"

"Not invite me, but I happen to be the so-called lighthouse guardian," Alexander corrected the tailor's words. "I can be sure that my" uncle "hasn't known that I am me."

"Oh," Osborne nodded, then frowned and asked, "But are you leaving now, this time?"

Looking at Osborne's faint worries, Alexander can understand his thoughts.

Gomez ’s death caused Osborne to lose his backing. Although the relationship with Mrs. Gong Xiang was eased because of their own needs, the tailor knew that this was temporary. With Mrs. Gong Xiang ’s person, she is unlikely to deal with this. The tailor has blue eyes. If it is not Alfonso ’s ambition, it will make many people feel dangerous. Maybe the tailor has been cut off his head at this time.

Alexander's departure at this time is the worst thing for the tailor, especially as Bochum, the captain of the city defense, seems to be getting closer to Mrs. Miyazaki, which makes Osborne feel a greater threat. , If Alexandria leaves again at this time, the tailor is almost alone

What's more, Osborne took a huge risk and did not reveal another identity of Alexander to Gomez, this is a strange mind, now Alexander is leaving Sicily, and is to see Count Modillo, Austria Spence naturally felt as if he had been completely abandoned.

This is just like a matchmaker who specializes in matchmaking in the business field. Finally, when he made a big business, when he saw that he could make a lot of money by relying on the needle in the middle, he suddenly found that the two people had hooked up and took him. Leaving aside to negotiate the price, this broker must be both lost and angry.

Osborne is such a broker, but what he wants to do is a big business with great prospects, but the bigger the business, the greater the disappointment and anger once it is abandoned.

Looking at the tailor's gloomy face, Alexander decided to reveal his thoughts.

In addition to worrying about what Osbourne will do to hinder or destroy things, what is more important is that he still needs this tailor.

"Why do you want me to leave Sicily?" Alexander looked at Osborne. "Don't you think that all this has been decided long ago?"

"Oh?" Osborne didn't seem to be relieved from his loss before he nodded. "Yes, letters from the North should have arrived long ago, and now it's not quite flat everywhere. If this letter is written too Late, maybe it has n’t been delivered yet, and this was addressed to Master Miyazaki. Obviously, the Naples did n’t know that Master Miyazaki had been killed. Perhaps it was after receiving this letter that the parliament thought about it. I can use this to pass you away. "

"So my identity as the guardian of the lighthouse was decided after receiving this letter," Alexander looked at Gomez, and then scratched his dark red hair hard. "It seems that some people don't like me, They want me to get out early. "

"It's for all of us to get out early," Osborne narrowed his eyes slightly, and he began to habitually tap the tape measure around his neck. "If a dress is too beautiful, it will make other dresses lose color, and so do people, we all beautiful."

Alexander nodded in agreement, he knew what Osborne meant.

The tailor grabbed a piece of cloth on the workbench and shook it vigorously, then threw it down angrily: "We did so much for them, but the result is like this. Without us, those noble lords are still Why is it that adulthood is sorrowful? "

"Now they are stifling you," Alexander smiled. "You didn't actually lose anything."

"That's different!" Osborne retorted angrily, and then said sorrowfully. "That's not the same. Those nobles have always looked down on me. I know they cursed me in the back while pleasing me. If possible, they always Want me to accompany Master Gongxiang. "

Said he glanced at Alexander: "So when will you leave?"

"As soon as possible," Alexander smiled. "I have to set off as soon as possible. For the sake of Sicily's honor, I hope I can complete the mission entrusted to me by this Legislative Council.

"Is that so impatient, hum!" The tailor snorted sarcastically, which was rare for him. In Alexander's memory, Osborne never showed dissatisfaction with anyone in front of him. Not to mention any disrespectful words to the nobles. "What about you, you really have to do what the old man said, just leave Sicily?"

Alexander shook his head gently, but he couldn't make up his mind for a moment.

From leaving San Sebaron to now, what has been done just to gain the reputation of a lighthouse guardian?

Or some worthless thanks?

Alexander knew this was not what he wanted.

But what happens if you do not follow the orders of the Sicilian Parliament?

Alexander quickly thought about it, and then he found that it was impossible and would not be allowed.

The parliamentary committee can acquiesce Bochum to do something that is contrary to honor, then they cannot care about their so-called lighthouse guardian.

Alexander even felt that Camille might not even notice that they were arresting Krian, but in fact he was targeting Alfonso.

Think carefully, none of these people are fuel-efficient lamps, and all of them are cunning cunning drops.

The Sicilians cannot tolerate Alfonso, the Aragonese, pointing fingers at them. Could he tolerate his so-called lighthouse guardian from a foreign country who has the opportunity to stand up and claim their rights?

During this time, Alexander deeply felt the conservativeness of the Sicilian people and the strong local concept. It can be said that anywhere in Sicily, people will always look at any foreigner with curiosity, and then they will be proud. Tell the other party "This is Sicily."

It sounds like nothing special, but as long as you memorize it carefully, you will find a strong exclusion and recognition of your hometown.

This emotion has been going on for too long, and it will continue to continue, so that in the memory of Alexander, the famous Sicilian mafia in the later generations were gradually formed by this family as a group.

Such a place, if there is not much change, how can a stranger be allowed to compete with them for power.

And what about Naples?

There was a city that had just been recovered from the French not long ago. There was a large group of people who had just ended their escape. Some were even poor and noble. There was also a place where the rules were almost completely broken because of the previous war.

Such a place is really suitable for people like himself, Alexander pondered.

And the most important of them, there is not only an extremely large ambition, but also because of the yin and yang, the Count of Naples Modillo, who had a delicate relationship with him from the beginning.

What should I do? Alexander already had a plan in mind.

"I have to leave Sicily." Alexander finally said, he saw the disappointment in Osborn's face, but he did not intend to comfort the tailor.

No matter what they do, there must always be setbacks or failures. Some people flinch from adversity. For such people, Alexander will not reach out to him, because flinching is his choice.

Even if such people have made achievements in other areas in the future, they will often choose to retreat in the face of suffering, and then go back and forth until they are in the crowd.

Isn't Osborne like that? I can't see it now, but Alexander thinks it is a good opportunity. If he can still stand with himself, then Alexander will continue to take him with him.

Otherwise, the tailor's path ends in this Sicily.

"Are you going to find Count Molodi?" Osborne asked dejectedly. He felt that he had really made a loss transaction. "Maybe I should go to Alfonso. If the new bishop is willing to forgive me, I can Continue to be his tailor. "

Alexander looked at Osborne silently. His appearance made the tailor's face flushed first, and finally he could not bear to take off the tape measure hanging on his neck ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Okay, you tell me what to do What to do, I recognized, I recognized Camuri, and I also recognized Alfonso, as long as you do n’t make me like a clown, try to please them and try to please them. Accepted the sentence "You know that is useless. "

Alexander laughed, and he saw that Osbourne was so deliberately just to make him feel hard, but although the tailor played some small wrists, it was clear that he had already made a heavy bet.

This bet is on Alexander.

"Continue to find Krian," Alexander told. Only one Osborne has really participated in the things around him. Whether they are Mrs. Bochum or Mrs. Gong, they only cooperate with him, but Alexander does not Do n’t underestimate Osbourne, because he knows exactly what the now-depressed tailor will be like in the future. "This person is the key to everything, as long as you find him, everything is easy to handle."

"It doesn't matter if you can't find it," Osborne muttered, revealing a sly smile. "As long as we keep looking, Lord priest will have a headache for this person."

Alexander nodded, he knew what Osborne meant.

For Alfonso, Crian is undoubtedly his weakness. As long as he grasps this tightly, Alfonso will always feel that he is staring at him and not dare to act rashly.

The door rang softly, and Sophia appeared at the door. She was wearing a travel suit, carrying a large baggage, and it seemed like she was going out.

"We are leaving Sicily and Sophia," Alexander reached out and stroked Sophia's head. "But we will come back soon. I promise you that by then, there will be a crown that will match you. People will praise your reputation and praise you. Beautiful, because you are my Sophia. "
