Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

Vol 6 Chapter 58: Midsummer changes

Traveling on a midsummer night is a very pleasant thing. The Mediterranean climate is cool and comfortable at night. When the horse is galloping, the slightly warm breeze oncoming even makes people sleepy.

Except for the horseshoes hitting the ground, almost no one else in the team made any other noises. The cavalry galloping in the wilderness was pulled out by the bright moonlight on the ground.

When Alexander looked up, looking at the silver moon like a silver plate above his head, he suddenly missed his family in the future.

I ca n’t go back any more. Although it ’s been several years, and in this era, I not only have a considerable land, castle, army and wealth, but also have my favorite and like my partner and children, but every time Recalling his loved ones in another era, centuries away, he still has a kind of unspeakable melancholy.

Perhaps this is why when fighting for power, I still ca n’t forget the entanglement with many beloved women. In fact, what Alexandria desires is just a warm family, but the development of things forces him to go step by step. On a road that cannot be turned back.

Can't go back, can only keep moving forward.

Just like treating Alfred, it was difficult for him to imagine that he would encourage a wife to murder her husband with poison, but now he not only did it, but also became the mastermind of supplying poison.

Can't go back, Alexander sighed secretly.

He could not tolerate Zuosha to become Alfred's wife. Even on the wedding night he had secretly ordered that if Zuosha could not get rid of Alfred smoothly, once the maid next to Zuosha sent a distress He would simply take the soldiers directly into the palace, and then use the most direct and brutal way to completely solve Alfred's "enemy".

Perhaps this was unfair to Alfred. After all, he was only a simple love for Mozhao Sha. He even helped them because of this love, but Alexander did not care about it.

He will not give his beloved sister to anyone, even if she will become Queen of Naples in the future.

Alexander did not know whether the dream that Alfred said was suggesting that he had been aware of the conspiracy that happened around him, but at this time everything was okay.

The situation has reached this irreversible time, everyone knows that it can't go back!

Seemingly feeling a little agitated in Alexander's emotions, Ruosha glanced at him sideways, looking at Alexander's tight face, and Ruosha's mouth twirled and smiled.

Her brother is now riding beside her in the wilderness with her, which reminds her of the scene when they attacked Agry at night. At that time she just doubted his identity, but now she already knows him Not his half-brother, but lost his brother's status, but he became her lover.

Under the moonlight, the shadow of the team stretched for a long time, and the sound of thunderous hoofs echoed in the open field. A dark shadow appeared in the distance, and Alexander exhaled gently.

After crossing the mountain, he entered Billy Shelley.

Alfonso walked back and forth anxiously, and sometimes someone came to report something to him, but it was all news that upset him, such as if any of his nobles went to those trade district chamber representatives to drink, and those The businessmen got together again and whispered a little plot that made him uneasy.

In fact, most of these are Alfonso ’s own delusions, and the business people do come together, but most of them are talking about how to make money in the future, and the nobles visiting the representatives of the chamber of commerce also just want to take the opportunity to make some money. Because it is said that many nobles in Rome have a good relationship with the chamber of commerce in the free trade zone. Most of them like to enter and exit in a place called an exchange established by the chamber of commerce, just as often as the nobles often hold banquets. Get together, and then those Roman nobles heard that they made a lot of money.

In short, the Billy Shellies were somewhat crazy from top to bottom. The excitement of joining the FTA Alliance gave them the illusion of joining today and being able to get rich tomorrow, and the agitation caused by this illusion seems to Alfonso, It's a typical "some people always want to harm me".

Alfonso sent a lot of people to find out the news, but none of them brought back the letter to make him happy, which made him feel like he was surrounded by conspiracy and conspirators, so when Buccini was ordered to enter the palace, he saw The heavily armed Alfonso couldn't help but be surprised.

"I suspect someone is plotting against me, and you are the mastermind," although Buccini, who was guessing himself, was a bit disappointed when he heard the wrong guess that summoned him to abscond, but Alfonso decided to ignore this and he was aggressive. Stared at this Jew who was about his age "Tell me what kind of conspiracy you have, otherwise don't blame me."

The Jewish man looked at Alfonso calmly, although he did not make a mistake, and indeed there was a conspiracy against him, but Buccini could be sure that Alfonso said it was purely bluff but no evidence, because this conspiracy is the biggest The advantage is that there is no conspiracy.

The Jews are legally and reasonably collecting debts. The agreement between the Free Trade Zone and Billy Shelley is also fair. Even the guards of the Chamber of Commerce who entered Billy Shelley were actively requested by the locals themselves. Where is the conspiracy?

"Your Highness, do you mean to let the representatives of the free trade zone and their guards get out of business?" Buccini used words that he would not normally use for the nobles. Seeing Alfonso's cheek twitched, the Jews continued. Say "Or if you want to amend the agreement with them, then what conditions do you intend to put forward, if you can dispel these doubts, I think I can serve you in this matter, after all, your interests are actually for us That is our interest. If you feel that you have been violated, we are willing and should recover the share you deserve. "

Alfonso looked at Buccini in a daze, and he suddenly found out that he didn't know what to say.

He has read the agreement several times, and it ’s not just him. A few people with some knowledge around him have read those terms, although some of the terms do let people see at a glance that they are maintaining the free trade zone. Benefits, but this is something that people ca n’t say. After all, everyone ’s purpose is to make money, and it is natural to put forward conditions that are beneficial to oneself.

The point is that there is nothing blameworthy or seemingly intriguing in the entire agreement, which has been reported to him by people around Alfonso more than once.

"His Royal Highness, you must summon me late at night to have other more important things," the Jews felt that it was time to give the young Duke a face, so he took the initiative to change the topic. "So you think that for the benefit of Billy Shelley, you should Which aspect needs to put forward conditions to the free trade zone? "

Alfred sat down a little frustrated, the armor on his body making a rubbing sound, which sounded a little irritating.

"Do you think they can really make money for me?" Alfonso still exhaled, seeing that the Jews seemed to be seriously thinking about his question, Alfonso could not help waiting for his answer.

"Your Highness, your Billy Shelley has no proud property."

In the first sentence of the Jews, Alfonso was not light, but there was no way to do it. Billy Shelley did seem to many people to be similar to the backcountry, which is why he wanted to leave this place as soon as possible, but if it is not the Gombre He may have been Lucrezia ’s husband by now, and became a hot nobleman in Rome.

"But this does not prevent you from making money, of course, this is after you have paid all your debts," the Jewish man did his due diligence to remind his debtors of their obligations. "Billy Shelley is the hub to the south, you I know that although many places in the south are very poor, but because of this, their local industry is very cheap, your level is just poor management and high tariffs have scared away too many people. If it is managed by real experts, the benefits are considerable. . "

"What do you think?" Alfonso felt that his throat was a bit dry, maybe it was hot, or maybe the prospect described by the Jews made him unable to settle down once again.

"I am His Highness the Merchant," Buccini said softly. "For us, it is our duty to make money. Please allow me to make an analogy. This is just like the nobles seeing honor as more valuable than anything. So Billy Shelley ’s prosperity is only good for us. Do you think I will deliberately damage my interests? "

Buccini's words made Alfonso's originally stretched face slowly relax. Although he always felt that some things in the Jewish words sounded unsustainable, Alfonso was still fascinated by the prospects described by Buccini.

It was just the matter in front of him that made him worry.

"But those in the free trade zone seem to stretch their hands too long, as if the entire Billie Shelley is full of them all at once," Alfonso complained of picking up a glass of wine and taking the opportunity to cover up a little before The aggressive posture "This is not enough, this is my territory, but now people are more willing to discuss things with representatives of those free trade zones."

Listening to the Duke's apparently childish stubbornness, Buccini secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that he was temporarily out of danger. At least now Alfonso should not pull out his sword to pierce him right. .

"All this is actually your right. You can negotiate with the people in the free trade zone yourself, or send a trustworthy person, instead of making everyone think that you can replace the lord and deal with those people casually. . "

Buccini casually dealt with this somewhat ill-tempered prince. He was not worried that Alfonso would really regain all the power to negotiate with the free trade zone after listening to his suggestion. This is because according to Buccini's observations , That free trade zone is like a stream of flowing water. Unless they are firmly rejected from the beginning of a levee called trade protection from the beginning, even if only a small gate is opened, this stream of water will be When they come in, they will permeate into every gap without holes, until they become a huge irresistible torrent, completely destroying the embankment.

This is the case in Naples, this is also the case in Florence, and even the seemingly indestructible behemoth Fugger family is not spared. Can a Billy Shelley be an exception?

In addition, although there is no accurate news, but with the efforts of the Jews for many years, Buccini has already known in advance that Alfonso has not yet thought of the news, the Naples court, ‘moved capital’.

This is news that makes Buccini secretly excited!

Everything he does and adventures are for this day.

Buccini was convinced of his vision and judgment. He believed that he saw a future monarch, a peculiar person who could completely change the situation of the princes in this land.

But Buccini's judgment on this man was not because he had an army that is now famous in Europe, nor because he skillfully used the power of gold to successfully penetrate into almost every palace on this continent, but he felt This person has a forward-looking vision that is difficult for others to understand.

If it is not ridiculous, Buccini will even think that this person seems to be able to predict the future!

Isn't such a person worth investing in? If he can be a part of this person's ambitions, what kind of rewards will he get in the future?

It was precisely because of this firm belief that Buccini had persuaded the elders to agree to his request, and used all the power he could at all costs.

Now, his efforts seem to be gradually showing influence, and Buccini believes that this is just the beginning.

The night was very dark. Several farmers who could not sleep because of the hotness came to the field. Several people teased each other and found a place to sit down. They talked about the two women whom they met during the day. They seemed to follow those who came from Naples Came from a businessman, but it is said that these women are actually traveling wanderers.

But this did not affect the interest of the men. On the contrary, they talked more vigorously about the clothes exposed by these women, the exaggerated makeup, and even the circles they exposed on the skin of the clothes looked like a rash pink. The traces were used by these Billy Shelley country bachelors as talks.

A faint sound of horseshoes came from a dark distance. Several people didn't pay attention, and then began to panic. They immediately hid behind a bush and watched carefully until they saw a small team of cavalry along the field path. Walk in their direction.

Some of those cavalrymen held torches in their hands, and when they approached, they could clearly see that their armor shone in the light of fire and moonlight.

"That's the Montina," a farmer whispered. "The cavalry I've seen them, their clothes are so beautiful, just like the old knights."

"Maybe they are knights." A younger villager whispered enviously at the armor.

"No, it's not a knight. I heard people call them hunting guards and said that they were specifically to protect his guards around the earl of Montina." The former farmer named himself showed that he was knowledgeable and quickly corrected, and then he was a little confused Looking at the backs of the hunting guards who passed by not far away, "But what are they doing here so late?"

The warm night breeze blew, and a hunting guard holding a torch led the road carefully. Although the mountainous terrain was not so steep, the night brought too much inconvenience.

Following the orders of O'Freuil, these hunting guards were assigned to different locations to wait for the news. Their only task was to return to the report immediately after seeing the striker of the Qiandu team who might be ahead.

The squad of furthest guards sent out was ordered to station on a hill outside the city. Although the team was calculated according to the itinerary, they would not arrive until at least tomorrow afternoon, but O'Lei knew that Alexander should not let them Wait until then.

So this team of hunting guards has been ordered to pay attention to the strikers that may appear.

A sentinel soldier squinted slightly under the tree sleepily. Was his head tilted to the side, and then reluctantly opened his eyes and looked down the mountain.

"When will the old man come," his companions are not far away chatting around the campfire "maybe wait until dawn."

"It shouldn't be. The captain said that the master will send someone to fight the front station first." The leader of the team leader said with certainty.

The soldiers shut up as soon as they heard that they were marching officers.

Speaking of the Montina army, it is not Gompati, or even Alexander, that makes the soldiers most afraid, but Ofrei.

Perhaps it was because he had been in charge of the daily activities of the army, so Alfred knew the habits of these soldiers, which made it easy for him to see through some tricks, so sometimes Montina soldiers would rather be punished by Alexander, Reluctant to fall into the hands of the marshal.

"It seems to be still!" The sentries suddenly screamed, and the guards immediately grabbed their weapons and jumped onto the horses, and then looked out of the wilderness in the direction of the guard's fingers.

"What is it?"

"It seems to be a cavalry."

"Is the Lord Earl coming?"

"How is it possible ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Adults can only come after dawn as soon as possible."

"Go and see for yourself." The captain commanded, waving his back at the same time, and immediately a cavalry ran away from the team and ran towards the dark.

At that time, the cavalry team that appeared suddenly had arrived very close.

A hunting guard came out of the line to urge the horse forward. He stopped on the side of the road and raised the torch in his hand: "Who is! State your identity!"

"Who are you again?" Someone in the dark silhouette shook back.

"We are the guards of the Chamber of Commerce of Billy Shelley." The hunting guard announced loudly with the identity that had been specifically commanded by Ofrei.

"Oh, God bless you, we are looking for you."

There was a happy response from the opposite side, followed by a few flashes of fire in the darkness.

Just when the hunting guard saw this scene, it was too late to shout a "Caution!" Warning to the companions behind him, and a burst of gunfire had suddenly sounded!
