Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

Zepes walked down the street in a gloomy manner. He listened to the people around him enthusiastically discussing the matter of sending troops, some of which were still "his people."

This made Zeppes very annoyed. He did not expect the king to make such a decision suddenly, which made him unprepared at all, and it was clear from the situation that the king had already taken the initiative again through this proposal, and even some of them were originally The contradiction between them does not indicate the attitude of the nobility, at least because of this proposal now on the side of the king.

Zeppes didn't want to see Ladiras II, it was too naive for them.

He just wanted to keep his Wallachia. From his father Vlad III to the present, their family ’s **** of Wallachia is not strong, especially after the mystery of his father ’s death. Pace even felt that no one was reliable.

If it were not for the Ottoman invasion, he would not come to Bucharest, a city that killed his father. Although he was the Grand Duke of Wallachia, the place where he really ruled was in Transylvania. It is always a rainy, yet beautiful mountain area.

But now he can't get rid of it. Whether it is to fight against the Ottomans or to deal with the bad-hearted king, he must persevere.

"Your Highness, are we going to attack the Ottomans?"

There was another voice that made Zepes dissatisfied. He looked up annoyedly and saw the Zagreb man named Moorko standing in front of him with a hopeful expression on his face.

"Are you so eager to go to the battlefield or die?"

Zeppes did not conceal his dislike of the king ’s suggestion. He had previously expressed public opposition at the meeting of nobility, but Ladislas II clearly grasped people ’s minds, and apparently long-term anger and fear for the Ottomans The sentiment has made people fall into an irresistible excitement once it breaks out, and the battle of the Montina army in the Danube Delta makes people look restless while seeing hope.

This can be seen from the face of the man in front of him. The eager expression makes Zepes no doubt that he might jump on the horse and rush out of the city at the moment of receiving the order.

This is not right. The King must be planning something. He cannot possibly know the situation in Bucharest today. The best way should be to stick instead of taking the initiative. What is the problem?

Zeppes couldn't help pondering, not paying attention to what the opposite Morco said.

Until he suddenly heard the name "Count of Montina".

"What are you talking about, Count Montina, what do you know about him?" Zeppes' spirit immediately gathered, and he had a feeling that all the changes seemed to have happened since the Count came, even the Ottomans Now the Garrison is still on the other side of the Arge River without attacking, and it has such a relationship with the count.

"I just listened to a businessman who was drinking in a tavern," Seeing the Grand Duke finally noticed himself, Moorco hurriedly said, "I heard that the count and the emperor, I mean that the emperor Maximian is very familiar, maybe Vienna will send troops Come to help us, maybe even the German nobles, their knights are said to be brave. "

Zepes moved his mouth slightly, and Moore's words made him a little surprised. He didn't know the Earl of Montina, or only heard what had been circulated among people, although there was a clear ambiguity between Alexander and Sophia. His relationship attracted his attention, but it was not enough for him to deliberately dig that thing.

Although he once worried that the impact on Sophia would be reduced, it is superfluous to see him now, because Ladislas said that it was obviously impossible for II to tolerate him always affecting Sophia, which was publicly announced by the king. Sophia's identity as a Greek princess and her tireless support for her can be seen.

Zepez ’s ambition was not big. He just wanted to keep his Wallachia. Since Sofia not only helped him get rid of his embarrassing situation, but even formed a big influence in Bucharest, so he was eager for the king. He was not so strongly opposed to regaining control of Sophia's mind.

But now the king ’s sudden action makes Zepes worry again. He always feels that Ladislas II is hiding something. Now he hears that Moore mentioned that Count Montina seems to have some relationship with the emperor of the Holy Roman Empire. He couldn't help thinking in his heart.

"Are you listening to a businessman about this?" Zepes asked suspiciously.

"It was the businessman named Prato. The king always summoned him recently," Moorco said affirmatively. "He came from Rome and knew a lot about the Vatican and about the count."

Mentioned that Alexander Moore was indignant. He felt that his luck was really bad, and he seemed to be unable to get rid of that abominable foreign nobleman everywhere he went.

"Prato? The rich merchant who collects bronzes everywhere? I've heard of him, but where is he now?"

"I don't know. The king has looked for him before, but no one knows where he is now." Moore shook his head.

"Oh okay, you did a good job," Zeppes nodded to Moorco, and he was quite impressed with the Zagreb messenger who was almost in trouble on the first day of entering the city. "You are now in the city guard Is it served here? "

"Yes," looking at the coat embroidered with the Bucharest emblem, Moorco straightened his waist. "As I was when I was under the command of Lord Hurva, I am now a captain in the City Guard."

"That's good, and I wish you a promising future." Zepes sternly walked forward.

At this time his mind was repeatedly echoing the new news that Moore had just told him.

The king obviously also knew that Count Montina and Emperor Maximian seemed to have some relationship, so did Ladislas II really want to give the power of commanding the noble coalition to that Gongbre?

If not, what did the king want to do?

What Zedis had to do with Ladislas II could not be guessed, but what Alexander Sophia had to do was almost impossible to know.

Looking at Sophia, who was standing opposite and holding a two-handed sword to his side, he suddenly felt that it was like 2 years ago, and they never separated. ,

This is Sophia's boudoir in the castle, or her own little kingdom. This little house is separated by a very strong but not strong retaining wall. Behind the house is a large stone platform, which is outside the castle. The steep slopes stand vertically, looking far away, you can vaguely see the Danube river spreading over the rugged waters, and the wide and surging waves of the Dembuwica River passing through the city nearby make Bucharest like a crystal clear scarf. In general, every evening you can see the golden river water reflecting the intoxicating scenery of rose red dyeing the city.

It ’s just that Alexander does n’t have the intention to appreciate this intoxicating beauty. The “broad mind” in front of him that is undulating because of his anger is enough to attract all his attention, not to mention the other person ’s hands ca n’t help shaking. Sword, judging by the dazzling blade of the sword, he can be sure that this sword is definitely not used to decorate the facade, but a real guy with a blade to meet the blood.

"It's a bit complicated, you should listen to me explain." Alexander tried to make her voice as calm as possible, although the influence in the Prague court seemed to have caused Sophia to converge a lot of wildness, but when she heard about Count Montina After the origin of the title, Sophia, who had a fierce personality and always likes to use a knife and a gun, seemed to come back all of a sudden.

"Ah ~"

"No, no, it's not what you think, in fact, the one between me and Barenti is the one you know ..."

"what!"

"Oh, why are you so stubborn? Things are not as bad as you think. I mean that since you left, Barenti and I did not get engaged immediately. We are not even married!"

"what……"

"Yes, it's much better. You listen to me quietly. This Count of Montina is inherited by me. I have explained this before. Finally, why the relationship is a bit complicated. You also know that we and The Luo Weilei family has business dealings. I remember visiting the bishop with you. Of course, he is now a cardinal, because the relationship between us has become a little more complicated, not to mention that you know it. And my uncle Count Modillo ... "

"what!!"

"Don't impulse Sophia, I know you don't like my uncle or Ruosha, but what's going on here ... Why don't you, girl, listen to the explanation!"

At last, Alexander, who was impatient, tried to disarm the enemy by hard means, but Sophia immediately counterattacked her. The long sword in her hand was first hacked with a swift move. The slashed wrist suddenly flipped over the long sword and cut across Alexander's waist by inertia.

Alexander was greatly taken aback. In his impression, Sophia was more fond of dashing with the strength of her day, so it was not difficult to deal with her. As long as the timing was right, fighting would make her lose her strength advantage. This flexible technique is that even Nashan failed to teach her, which once regretted Nashan, thinking that Sophia did not become a good swordsman's spirituality.

Looking at the long sword coming across now, Alexander wanted to say to Nashan: "You wish your daughter's wish to be a good swordsman finally came true, but it was exchanged for your son-in-law's life."

With a "slap", the sword spine hit Alexander's waist hard, and the heavy impact made him sway to the side.

Sophia panted slightly with her sword handle in her hands, and even with the strength to surprise others, the constant waving of a two-handed sword made her feel suffocated and breathless.

Alexander painfully pressed his sore waist. Although Sophia still had some strength at the last moment, the feeling of the heavy two-handed sword hitting him still made him feel like he had just been hit by a donkey.

"You should be obedient!" Alexander shouted angrily to Sophia, but when he saw that anger gradually disappeared, but a face of aggrieved expression appeared, how could he say the following words?

Alexander sat on the ground helplessly and waved to Sophia.

"Come here and let me tell you what happened, and you have to tell me why you left me."

Sophia hesitated, looked at the sword in her hand, and then looked at the big bad wolf who tempted Little Red Riding Hood across the street. After thinking about it, she walked over with the sword.

Alexander looked a little nervous and looked at Sophia with his sword back to him and sat in his arms, hugging the girl's already grown body, and Alexander's heart slowly calmed down.

The silky chestnut skin shivered slightly in the caress of Alexander's fingers, and the heart of the sprouting young girl was burning at the starting point.

Perhaps because of precocious maturity, Sophia ’s original plump figure did not change much, except for the cheeks and jaws with some baby fat cheeks that became slightly sharpened. In Alexander ’s view, the only change was her waist It seems a little slimmer than before, but what this slenderness exchanges is the "beauty" on the chest.

Alexander looped Sophia's waist from behind and put her chin lightly on her shoulders, her cheek against the cold sword body whispering, "Do you know what I'm feeling when I know you are gone, what I saw on that day was When Balendi was not you, at that moment I felt that the whole world betrayed me ... "

"Betrayal is like a poison. Once you eat it, you can never forget the taste again, or someone does not want you to forget it." Sitting in a tavern not far from the castle, Busaco bowed his head while drinking He murmured, "I betrayed her at first, no, it should be said that all of us betrayed her, me, Uliu, Queen Joanna, and even Nashan, we all took Sophia from the adults. Without her encouragement, she ca n’t even leave the Marino Palace. "

"That princess, isn't she a descendant of the Roman emperor?"

Busako smiled at the puzzled Gompatti sitting opposite: "Yes, she is now a noble Greek princess, but at that time she was just a little girl named Sophia. She couldn't speak, but always Stubbornly telling others that she is the wife of an adult. She is angry with all the women who are close to the adult, as if they are all her enemies. This is not a good thing for all of us. At that time, the uncle Count Modillo had found a good family for the adult. Yes, it was Miss Barendi, whether it was from the door or it could bring it to the adult. Help, everyone thinks that Miss Barendi is more suitable to be the wife of an adult, and this is also a good thing for all of us. "

"So you drove her away from the adults?" Compatiti asked tentatively.

"It was not decided by one person or several people. Everyone thought it was the best way. Even Nashan participated."

"Nashan? Is it the bohemian who raised Princess Sophia in the city, her adoptive father?"

"Maybe it's the adoptive father, who knows now," Busako shook his head with a smile, looked in the direction of the castle outside the door, and shook his head quietly, "Sometimes you make a decision, whether it is right or wrong As a result, we all have seen everything now, and as for the future, I do n’t know what will happen. "

Listening to Busako's words, Compatti blew his lower lip and lifted his head to drink a bit of Balkan liquorice with a bit of weird bitterness.

At this time, after some hard work, Alexander had understood one thing, that is, a person's words and manners may change with the environment, and even the appearance characteristics will change with the passage of time, but the desire to change his personality is It can't be more difficult. If the person's character has unshakable stubbornness, then trying to change is really delusional.

Sophia is very irritable, and even the most stubborn and stubborn that most girls of this age are unmatched. This is her natural character as a Bohemian.

When she is angry, she often disregards everything, and when she falls in love with someone, she will treat everything about that person as belonging to herself and not to others.

So now she was grumpy, using her sword handle to hold Alexander ’s forehead backwards, trying to stop his lips from staying on her earlobe, because that made her feel uncomfortable, maybe when Alexander did this before She didn't think so, but now she suddenly felt that this made her very uncomfortable, as if the whole person was thrown into the stove and tormented, her whole body was hot.

This made her even more annoyed, especially when she thought that Alexander must have been so close to Barendi or other women in this way, she was very angry.

Sophia stared angrily at Alexander and suddenly gestured at him quickly.

Although not very clear, Alexander finally understood what she meant by an action.

A finger crossed Sofia's neck fiercely, staring at Alexander with fierce eyes, which made Alexander feel cold for a while.

"You wouldn't want me to kill Barendi," Alexander asked with a grin, and saw Sophia nodded seriously, and Alexander couldn't help but smile bitterly. "Sophia, you have to listen to me, it happened since you left There are a lot of things. Yes, some of them are related to Barrendi, some are not related to her, but I came to Bucharest to take you away. "

Speaking of this, Alexander whispered in Sophia ’s ear and said, “Listen carefully to Sophia, you are not safe here, the nobles here have their own plans, and even kings and queens who are good to you are not reliable. , So you have to leave here with me, I will take you away whenever I have the opportunity, but before that I want you to stop losing your temper, we have to find a way to deal with the troubles in front of us. "

Sophia, who was originally struggling, stopped and looked at Alexander in confusion.

"It's dangerous for us here. Those outside are no more kind or even more terrible than the Ottomans," Alexander whispered around Sophia's waist. "So I need you to help me Sophia. I know this is not a thing. It ’s easy, but we have to get past this level. "

Sophia listened in confusion. Although she still felt that Alexander was deliberately distracting the topic, she could not help worrying about the worry on his face.

She made a gesture, seeing that Alexander seemed to understand it and continued to "speak".

"You mean Nashan, I was about to tell him about it. I had sent someone to send him a letter to come as soon as possible. At this time, we can only trust your father," Alexander agreed. The head, but then frowned, "Which person, who do you say can be trusted? Is that Cepes? Sophia, I want to remind you that you can't believe anyone but me, especially that Cepes."

Seeing the reprimands of Alexander's righteous words, Sophia's original excited face collapsed. She tilted her head and stared at Alexander's face for a while, until she saw that Alexander was a little uncomfortable, she turned her head slightly in the middle. Then he raised his hand and stretched out his index finger. With a pointed fingertip, he gently stroked the neck, and a "hum" sound made Alexander's liver tremble in his nose.

"Why haven't you forgotten this?" Looking at Sophia's murderous look, think about it. If you let her know that she and Lucrezia even had their daughters born, Alexander felt that she wouldn't know when it would happen. What happened?

With this in mind, Alexander was wondering for the first time that perhaps it was not a good idea to bring Sophia back to Italy.

It's just that Alexander didn't think about it. His worry soon became a reality.

But it was not anyone else who betrayed him. It was Prato, an artist master and international master who was very optimistic about him.

Speaking of Prato, this time is really good, from a poor light egg that is almost poor because of speculative copper prices to becoming a king's guest, although Prato ’s life is not perfect, but he had no dream when he left his hometown. I thought about it.

Moreover, his business has gradually become bigger. With frequent visits to the side of Ladislas II, the number of dignitaries that he knows is more expensive, and the more people he knows, the better the business is. .

However, Prato remembered the instructions given to him by Alexander, so although he knew a lot of people, he was very carefully purchasing copper wares locally during this time, and then sent them in batches through the Danube The shipping was delivered to the port ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ and then returned to Alexander's territory in Naples, Agrig.

As for the safety of European merchant ships in the Mediterranean, this does not require him to care, but from these months, this worry is obviously superfluous.

Prato did n’t know what role Ashurk played in Rome. He only knew that the result of being so cautious was that when he wandered in the countryside of Bangan, Someone in Rome had already deposited a very generous sum for him in a Jewish bank, and the amount of this money allowed Prato to venture into the Ottoman-controlled area at all costs.

Then he rammed into a snare net of the Ottoman security forces that was quelling the rebellion of Balkan farmers everywhere.

This day is April 11.

Also on this day, in the magnificent Lange Castle in the Loire Valley of France, the new king of France and Louis of Orleans promulgated the decree of the succession of France under the witness of the Pope ’s representative. As the king of the entire French kingdom, Louis X The second was officially on the throne of France.
