Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

Vol 6 Chapter 36: Subversion (Part 1)

Napoli's most famous tailor Oriole died in a stinky ditch in front of the back door of a third-rate brothel, and this incident caught some people's attention in Naples.

Although the tailor used to make tailor-made clothes for those ladies, he used to go to the room frequently from top to bottom, and from the outside to the inside, he tailored for the ladies, but he heard that he was not only hiding in his shoes when he died. One of the gold coins in it was snatched, and was polished, and many ladies still regarded this as an anecdote everywhere.

As for many husbands, they are even more happy. If it weren't because this guy was a court tailor, someone would have wanted to teach him a good lesson.

The killing of the tailor did not attract much attention. After all, there were too many things happening during this time, and the death of a tailor will naturally not attract too much attention.

The only thing that people are paying attention to besides the unpleasant French is the sudden news about the marriage between Prince Alfred and Countess Cosenza.

This happened so suddenly that many people have not fully understood that the official news has been spread.

The prince will formally marry the count, and according to more reliable rumors, the exchange condition for this wedding is that Count Modillo is willing to bear all royal debts.

Many people couldn't help but wonder what was the reason why this marriage was held so urgently, or simply it was more urgent to be more appropriate. Since thinking about it, all kinds of speculations were immediately in the streets of Naples It spread, and compared to the rumors that made the people like it, the death of a tailor was not noticed much.

When Alexandria returned to the Duyran Palace, Zuosha was accompanied by Alfred to see a painting, which was a portrait of Zuosha, if he walked down the street to find a local who looked lavish and asked for a gold coin , You can see that the portrait carved above is very similar to this painting. In fact, this kind of gold coin called Ladia, which has been popular in the entire south, is based on this painting.

Alfred is somewhat uncomfortable with the somewhat subversive style and scenes in this painting. Especially when he saw that Ruo Sha was actually holding a musket in his hand, he felt that there was always a weird sense.

Regarding the fact that Ruosha once attacked the Ottomans in Bucharest, the prince already knew it. When he first heard about it, Alfred was excited, then nervous, and then had a little inferiority.

He believed he was brave, but knew in his heart that if it were him, he might have been frightened by the heathen.

This even made Alfred a little hesitant to continue pursuing the Countess who was so maverick, but whether it was because of the appearance that Russa made him obsessed with, or because of the intentional and unintentional disclosure of his father Frederick to Modi Alfred knew that the Luo family's wealth was coveted.

The arrival of Alexander made the atmosphere a little embarrassing. It seemed to know that the two people were not very compatible. Ruosha kindly found a reason for the prince, and then sent him away from the two.

"You seem to enjoy being pursued," Alexander looked at Rusha, not far from Rusha. "Aren't you angry at this marriage at all?"

"Isn't this what you arranged for me, dear brother," Ruo Sha walked to the portrait and stood up straight, as if to compare herself with the portrait, and also deliberately put on the same posture, but now she There is neither a shield nor a musket in my hand. "I would love to know what you are going to do next. Perhaps I am married to Alfred and it is indeed in your interest."

Rosa's words reminded Alexander of Count Modillo. Although no one had mentioned the name of King Enrique so far, Alexander knew that Count Modillo had actually hinted to him more than once by Madame George Anne His so-called "noble lineage".

The Earl did very secretly, and he never even mentioned the unlucky and incompetent Castilla from beginning to end. After all, this is a big thing that may lose his head, so it is no wonder that Earl is so careful.

But as Ruosha said, if everything was arranged by the earl, it was indeed Alexander himself who ultimately benefited, which is why the earl believed he could still convince him in the end.

But Alexander obviously didn't think so, and he had his own plan, so although he agreed with the count's proposal, he had other plans.

Just looking at Zuosha and Alfred standing together to see her portrait, he still felt uncomfortable.

"I think you probably need a gorgeous dress that really deserves you when you get married," Alexander said, looking up and down at Ruosha, then suddenly frowning. "Is there something wrong with my eyes, dear sister, How do I think you are a little fatter than before? "

"Qiao Ling, you really hate ~"

As Rusha's angry shouts came out of the room, a burst of fighting sounded like tinkering, and the count who was accompanying Alfred passing by nearby watched the prince look slightly surprised. , And then listen to Ruosha from the distant room, who seems to be shrugging helplessly because of the rapid gasping of the chase: "Please forgive Your Highness, but you know that their brother and sister's feelings are not generally good, that is quite Okay. Hahaha ... "

Prince Alfred looked at the count, and then it seemed a little weird in the room, but he could not tell what was wrong, and finally nodded with his fiance's uncle and nodded seriously.

Joseph Buccini was walking down the street, just like the foreign merchants who were planning to take advantage of the threat of war in Naples and were prepared to take advantage of this opportunity. They walked around because the threat of war was a bit depressed. Prosperity, if people who are not familiar with it may not want to stay longer, but Joseph Buccini is very interested in it.

After coming to Naples for some days, from the initial doubts to the later knowledge, and now looking at the closed shops and feeling that there is another taste, Joseph Buccini has exerted a lot of energy.

The natural business acumen of the Jews made him discover the extraordinary relationship between Naples and the Free Trade Union, and he solved many ununderstood problems. This led Buccini to believe that the current depression in Naples is completely superficial or even false. This kind of falsehood not only deceived the king, but even many of the merchants involved were blinded blindly. Buccini firmly believed that Naples had great wealth, and these wealth have been somehow undetected today. The way quietly became a huge capital supporting that free trade union.

The money may not be visible to the eyes, but it is definitely a force that is daunting. To what extent this force is so big, Buccini even dare not imagine it.

A small number of funeral processions came across the street, and Joseph Buccini stepped aside. As a Jew, he knew the rules of keeping his body well, and he held a thick textbook with the logo of the University of Venice on his thick cover. Buccini bowed his head slightly to avoid the look of people passing by.

A woman ’s cry attracted Buccini ’s attention. He raised his head slightly to see the fat widow in a mourning dress, and the whispered comments of those who followed: “It ’s a pity that I did n’t see a lady This unlucky guy was buried. "

"What else do you want to see, I really think a tailor can win the favor of the ladies, they just want to try something new, but it is said that Mrs. George Anne of Cosenza really appreciates this guy, but it is a pity Not in Naples. "

"Don't you think it's weird when it comes to this, the lady's son just returned, and the tailor she frequented recently died inexplicably."

"Shut up, what are you suggesting, don't trouble me, the Earl of Montina is not a nuisance, but he is the one who dares to offend even the Sultan of Ottoman!" ...

Listening to the voices of the funeral procession that was drifting away, Buccini looked at the back of the team a little puzzled.

Frederick's unexpected request to Ruosha was also quite unexpected, so he even thought of some weird reasons to go up, but as long as he thought about the matter of '140,000 Florin', the king immediately took those The strange thought was thrown out of his mind. For Frederick now, do n’t say that the son may just like to be a dad, even if Ruosha stood in front of him with a group of illegitimate children of unknown origin, he would not hesitate to use a knife Forced Alfred to marry her.

Hurry up for the wedding, so that all the debts will be taken over. In addition, Kosenza ’s current strength cannot be underestimated, although Russa personally led the Kosenza to defeat a team commanded by an Ottoman general in Bucharest. The rumors of the enemy of the force are really unbelievable, but Cosenza is still aware of Frederick's influence in Naples today.

This has also caused the king's vigilance.

Therefore, getting married soon is the key, all things can be solved in the sacred marriage bed. The king thought so.

On July 7, the day was hot from the morning. The sun hung like a huge fireball in the sky. Even in the early morning, the hot light had shone everything on the ground as bright and bright as if at any time Will be ignited.

Mrs. George Anne was sitting in a chair. Although it was very hot, she was wearing a very formal and extravagant dress. The exquisite appearance and body that did not match her youth, so many people who saw her could not help but secretly use her and Her daughter, who was about to marry, made a comparison, and came to the conclusion that although the Countess was young and beautiful, the Countess obviously had the maturity of the ladies of her age.

The wedding was held at the Bishop ’s Cathedral in Naples. This French-built church once ushered in the baptism, coronation and wedding of more than a dozen kings. Of course, the corresponding number of funerals was once held in this cathedral. This makes the bishop's cathedral an exceptionally sacred place.

When wearing a beautiful and gorgeous wedding dress, every gem inlaid on the placket glittered and shimmered, everyone couldn't help but hold their breath and looked towards Miss Count Cosenza.

After the wedding, she will become the Princess of Naples and the future Queen, the Modillo family will usher in a new glory, and Cosenza will no longer be in danger of being separated from Naples, and the King can finally get rid of He suffocated him with high debts.

Everything looks perfect, and everyone seems to have benefited from it.

Alexander stood in the crowd and looked at the pair of newcomers walking side by side. As they passed him, Alfred nodded slightly to him, but Ruosha walked over without looking at him.

Her face was calm, or simply said that she was indifferent and more appropriate. She was like this throughout the ceremony. She was calm and serene and expressionless. It seemed that she was not married to her, and everything around her had nothing to do with her.

It was not until Prince Alfred put a crown on her head that was exquisite in workmanship, but still slightly heavy, and Ruosha looked up as if she was awake, her gaze paused on Alfred's face. After a moment, then a smile suddenly appeared, and when the prince saw her smile, she couldn't help but stunned, Ruosha took Alfred's hands to crown her, lowered her head and kissed the back of his hand slightly.

A soft low cry came from around him, and Alexander looked at Madame George Anne next to him, looking at the Countess ’s tears, whether it was happy or sad, but Alexander was thinking that perhaps the Countess was actually tailoring her lover for her. The death is sad.

"This dress is so beautiful," suddenly a whisper of envy from a lady was heard not far away. "But I heard that this dress is not cheap. It was made by a very famous Sicilian tailor. You should know that this errand should not be It will fall in the hands of others, but it ’s a pity that Auriol is dead, and he is so infamous. "

I don't know if it was intentional. Alexander thought that the woman's voice behind was intentionally louder, which just happened to be heard by Mrs. George Anne in front, so he slowly turned around and looked back.

A pale-faced woman and Alexandria looked at each other, and the man next to her was also panicked, but she still managed to squeeze out a smile to please, but when she saw Alexander slowly raise her hand and did a throat cut , The pair of men and women were suddenly cold and crumbling.

Alexander could feel that the surroundings were quiet all at once, and the people were quietly hiding away, and for a time only he and Mrs. George Anne stood there abruptly.

"Joe ..." Mrs. George Anne wanted to say, but then she closed her mouth after seeing Alexander shaking her head slightly.

Throughout her life, she kept following orders, listening to her brother, listening to her husband, listening to her daughter, and now listening to her son. So in Mrs. George Anne ’s mind, she had no intention of refuting and opposing others. She only You just need to live according to other people's arrangements, and the rest is just to have fun.

The wedding is still going on, but Alexander ’s mind is no longer here.

Things were so prepared, his eyes swept across the crowd, and he saw that several people met him with deep eyes, and he nodded slightly.

The court official O'Freide was the ceremonial officer of the wedding. When the princes and couples came out of the bishop's cathedral in a magnificent carriage, O'Freide immediately drove the wedding car as the leading official.

The journey from the cathedral to the palace was very lively, and even now it is panic everywhere, but Naples has gathered on both sides of the road to bless the prince and the Countess of Cosenza.

I just do n’t know if it ’s an illusion. Frederick riding a horse seems to always feel that the voice of “Long live the princess” is much higher than that of “Long live the prince”.

Alexandria also rode on the horse, and Pagasos was obviously very excited to participate in such a grand occasion, so it would suddenly make a snorting from time to time, or make a rush to the woman who had thrown a bouquet on the side of the road. True and false screams came one after another.

The pressure mountain has been somewhat helpless to the madness of Pagasos. If it is not to see that it has no credit and hard work, it has already been sold.

It was Burley ’s interest in Pagasos, but Alexander did not plan to sell the horse to him, because he thought that perhaps Ruza, the half-brother, might use Pagasos as his substitute. The fate of her is miserable.

Although the time is short, it may be that there is money to do things well. After Count Modillo generously funded a fee, the entire wedding still showed a satisfactory side.

Especially when the nobles returned to the palace with the newlyweds' carriage, and saw the rich food on the long list of tables arranged from the hall to the palace yard, many people could not help but cheered.

Under the guidance of the palm seal officer, the princes and the kings sat together behind the horizontal table in the hall, and on both sides, leading to the outside table, the nobles who had already stood up raised their glasses together.

"Honorable King of Sicily, long live!"

"Honorable Prince, Long live!"

"Honorable Princess, Long live! ~"

Listening to the cheers, Frederick frowned slightly, somehow he always felt that the last cheer was a bit too long.

Drinking, eating meat, bouncing clowns and the yelling and yelling of the outside courtyard, all of which make people feel messy. As the atmosphere became more and more heated, Alexander saw that the hall was still somewhat reserved. The nobles of the country have begun to become arrogant. Some people are taking the opportunity to wipe the oil from the maid, and some just left the chase and chased the women.

Frederick raised his glass and poured it into his mouth. The beautiful aroma made him feel that it was not wine but money.

It was finally possible to get rid of those **** debts, Frederick wanted to greet the Jew in the hall, and then let all the drunk people take pleasure in him, but the last reason prevented him from doing such stupid things, after all You have to deal with the Jews.

The king took another sip of wine, perhaps a little too much. He saw the shadows of his son and daughter-in-law dangling before he realized that they had stood up.

"Father, let's say goodbye first. You know today is a good day for me." Prince Alfred whispered to Frederick with some excitement.

"Come on, son, do it well!" Frederick yelled loudly, and the sound was loud enough to be heard from outside, which immediately caused a laugh.

Alfred nodded excitedly, he was indeed unable to suppress the flames of his heart, so when he hurriedly left Luosha, he did not notice the slightly strange look of his wife's back toward his father when passing by the king ~ www .wuxiaspot.com ~ Alexander took a glass and took a silent sip. He glanced at the Count Modillo sitting behind the opposite table, and the Count also looked at him.

Alexander slowly put the cup down, his eyes staring at the count, and then his right hand tapped the table slowly.

A waiter removed the empty glass from the king again, and brought a new glass of wine.

Yin Hong's wine looked like blood, and Frederick froze a little. He didn't know how he suddenly had such an ominous thought. Then he smiled and picked up the wine glass and stood up.

For a time, from the hall to the courtyard, a mess of standing voices followed.

"For my son, for Naples, for the ever-present honor of Sicily, cheers!"

"Cheers! Long live the King of Sicily!"

The cry rang through the palace, and Frederick looked at the scene, listening to the deafening cheers, and finally drank with satisfaction the red wine in the glass.
