Conquer the Dawn of Heaven
Vol 2 Chapter 30: 1 in Cosenza (Part 2)
Alexander was somewhat surprised when he saw Russa's father, Count Cosenza.
The count was much older than he had imagined. His blond hair, which was the same as Ruo Sha, had now turned grey and white, and his face was covered with deep wrinkles, which seemed a little shrivelled.
But it didn't matter. Alexander was surprised that the earl's arms were almost elbow amputated. When he saw his daughter standing up, the two dangling empty sleeves swung back and forth.
"My father once fought against pagans," Keizer whispered. "His two arms were lost in the battle against the Ottomans."
Alexander nodded silently. Although he was not really an Eastern Roman who fled from Crete or anywhere to Europe, he also knew that since the capture of Constantinople, the Ottomans have tried to threaten more than once The power to eliminate the Millennium Empire crossed the sea and invaded Europe, but after a few attempts, they soon discovered that the terror of the rise of the Crescent Empire caused the Europeans to break out of a rare fighting spirit, and even though they still won several victories, But if you want to succeed in one fell swoop, it is not so easy.
The Count of Cosenza wanted to be wounded in those battles.
"Zuo Sha rarely invites guests to come back," said the count to Alexander who saluted him. "In fact, she doesn't have many friends. I sometimes wonder if she is too proud. After all, girls like her should be positive. I was addicted to pleasure. "
"The Countess is very clever," Alexander said a little unanswered. Looking at the father who showed his daughter a spoiled look, he thought of George Anne, thinking about the lady who might still be addicted to young men, Alexander. I feel that this count is a little sad, and what makes him even more crying and laughing is that in the future he has to call this woman ’s mother, "Adult, it is my pleasure to be able to come to your territory."
"No no, there is nothing to be honored here, Cosenza is a very poor place," the Earl didn't care about shaking his empty sleeves, like waving his hand. "You won't find anything other than a lot of stones here. Interesting things, so if you are not pursuing my daughter, you will get nothing here. "
Alexander opened his mouth and looked at the Kaiser next to him. When he saw the brother ’s ridiculous smile, he could only try to say: "Master, you may have misunderstood. There are other things I came this time. In fact, I I am very interested in the hunting grounds here. As far as I know, Cosenza has the largest hunting ground in the whole south. "
"There are also flocks of mountain antelopes. You must look at the way they run, especially when climbing hills. That's a spectacle." The Earl, who was a little tired, seemed to have a spirit, he said that he was still Keeping his son to testify for him "Tell him Kaiser, what the mountain antelopes have done."
"They climbed the steep **** above," Keizer pointed to the top of his head, indicating that the steep mountain wall behind the castle was integrated "and there are more than one, although there is some bad luck, but you are indeed It ’s time to see how many mountain antelopes jump uphill together. "
"Yes, he will go and see tomorrow, yes young man, who are you from?"
Looking at the enthusiasm of the specialty that introduced his territory before, he suddenly looked at himself in confusion, and Alexander found helplessly that if the Count had not hurt his brain before the war, he had Alzheimer's.
"Don't mind, my father is a little confused now," Keizer whispered. "Let me take you to rest first. Ruosha will accompany him."
Seeing Ruosha who had walked behind the earl gently rubbing his shoulders for him, Alexander knew that it was a bit inconvenient to stay, and he followed Keizer out of the hall and went deep into the castle.
Because one side of the entire castle is almost integrated with the mountain, from time to time you can see the completely exposed mountain walls, especially when walking on a suspended corridor, because most of the corridors are embedded in the mountain, it looks very dark, only The sunlight from the arched window on the other chest wall reflected the patterns on the ground.
Keizer's footsteps slowly slowed down, and he looked back at Alexander, seeming to be a little curious, and then he suddenly asked, "Are you a lover of George Anne?"
Alexander looked at Keizer unexpectedly. Although he knew that the earlst eldest son did not seem to have a good relationship with George Anne, his so-called unscrupulous discussion of his stepmother still made Alexander feel a little weird.
"You don't have to be so surprised, we all know what the woman is doing outside, except for my father," Keizer smiled unintentionally. "When she married my father, he was not too bad. So he can make The woman quickly added a sister to me, but soon after Ruosha was born, he started to be confused from time to time. Now he often forgets who some unfamiliar people are, and sometimes even needs to think carefully to recognize his side. "Said, Keizer gestured to Alexander to follow along with her." Then she started looking for a lover, and the days she left were getting longer and longer, even staying with her brother. "
"I think you misunderstood me. I am not familiar with Mrs. George Anne, and I am a friend of Miss Russa," Alexander could only explain, thinking that he would be treated as her lover by George Anne's step-son. A mother. "I'm just interested in the hunting grounds here."
"Love to hunt?" Keizer walked to a door and stopped, then opened the door while asking. "Then take a good rest. In the evening we will hold a banquet for your arrival. I will take you to see you tomorrow. Cosenza ’s hunting ground. "
Looking at Kesel, who walked away, Alexander slowly walked to the window. The castle built for the defense of the Saracens was so strong and thoughtful that the window sill was caused by people who tried to climb from outside. A lot of troublesome big slopes.
In the empty space below, Uliu was busy packing up things. In fact, they had no luggage at all, but the Moors felt that this would not show that his servant was doing his due diligence.
Before excuses to do some other things, now Mahimo who is following is chatting hot with a maid, looking at the maid's smile when she smiles, it is estimated that Mahimo put her to bed only sooner or later.
Alexander turned back and sat down in front of the chair, and began to think about his current situation.
In fact, there was a big reason for deciding to leave Naples, because Alexander did not know that when he knew his "nephew" status, Modillo would send someone to San Sebalon to prove his identity. · Modillo was still imprisoned underground in the monastery, and Alexander felt that the man was really dangerous.
And there is still a doubt that haunts his heart.
He didn't know who killed Kunto.
Although Alfonso's suspicion was the most suspected, Kokunto's urge to go to the priest before he died made pressure Shanda think that the priest was the main messenger behind him and the possibility of it became very small.
This made him afraid to expose his identity hastily.
So, if we start with the countess first.
When he knew that George Anne lived in Modillo's house, Alexander decided to meet his "mother". Although the scene he saw later surprised him somewhat, the idea of approaching the countess first did not change.
Although Mrs. George Anne did not return to Cosenza with her daughter this time, he has now successfully entered the earl's house.
From the day he decided to use Modillo's identity, Alexander knew that sooner or later he would face various crises. At that time, it was to understand the plight faced by saving himself and Sophia. Now why?
Perhaps the present situation was doomed from the moment when he decided to walk out of San Sebalon. The agitation in his heart made Alexander know that he could not accept the fate of his life in the monastery, and why not take risks.
As soon as the door rang twice, Mahimo immediately pushed the door away. Today, he looked very excited. Seeing Alexander's questioning expression, he immediately walked up a few steps to the chair.
"Sir, I heard a lot of interesting news." Mahimo whispered. "You may not imagine that the whole castle seems to know the affair of the countess, and even the groom can say two paragraphs."
"Muff," Alexander smiled helplessly, and he had no illusions about the reputation of this 'mother'. "Maybe only the count himself is not clear."
"It's interesting here. The earl thought his wife was a loyal man. It is said that he had to fight for his wife's reputation and other nobles in his early years, only because he didn't have both hands." Mahimo said. Ridicule "But although the mother's real reputation is very bad, people like Miss Countess, many people think that she is not only generous and kind but also very smart, although the count's ex-wife left him a total of seven children, but people like it the most It ’s Miss Rusha. "
"It seems that you haven't wasted time," Alexander smiled, and he felt that Mahimo was really a wonderful person. For example, although he hasn't told him from beginning to end, the monk already knows what to do. Uliu looked like another. "Tell me what other news you have heard. I can see that you have more important news and have not told me."
"It is indeed such an adult," Mahimo sat next to Alexander, leaning forward and lowering his voice. "I heard that Miss Keisha's brother Keizer was very opposed to her dealings with Prince Alfred, son of the Duke. It seemed that she wanted to marry a count of Taranto. "
"Oh?" Alexander was a little surprised. The closeness between Keizer and Ruosha made him think that the pair of brothers and sisters should have a deep relationship, but now listening to the monk's words, Alexander feels that things may not necessarily be as simple as they saw. Perhaps Keizer really liked this sister, but it was hard to say which was more important to him than the benefits he could get from the marriage.
"There is one more thing," Mahimo was like an actor who likes to sway his burden. He smiled every time he saw the audience showing an accident. He saw Alexander showing interest, and he moved forward. The nose almost touched Alexander ’s ear and whispered: “There is a man named Bereri who is said to be an abandoned baby. He has been a servant in the castle since childhood. Now he is the head of the stable of the earl ’s house, and almost all the horses in the earl ’s territory , I think this person might see you. "
Seeing Mahimo's meaningful expression, Alexander thought and asked, "Well, who is he?"
"It is said that he is the illegitimate child of the countess and the servants in a castle," Mahimo said with a smile. "At least the countess has been very kind to this man since she was a child, and the countess has been kind to him."
"Really." Alexander wanted to rub his head. At this time, he was already a little numb to such a mother, and he even began to wonder how she might have been living like a Countess for a sloppy life. What was the affection of an illegitimate child born as a child, and if she did n’t care about having such a child, then Alexander tried to gain the trust and support of the countess before approaching Modillo ’s plan, then It may be completely lost.
"Is the Countess good with this Bereri?" Alexander asked casually, and he was not sure if he even would be closer to Rusha if he knew that he was her "brother", after all, she There are at least six legal siblings, and now I know there is another one, so even if there is one more now, probably she will not feel so special.
"It is said that she is very close to that person," Mahimo originally wanted to imply a certain kind of "you know" look, but seeing Alexander's face was not very good, so he quickly said "she should treat him as a brother." of."
"Who else?"
"What are you talking about?"
"I asked who else is the illegitimate child of this family, let me know."
"It seems to be gone."
"So this is the earl family?" Alexander whispered.
"It seems, is it ..."
Seeing that Alexander seemed to be in a low mood, there were some frowning monks who carefully greeted and left quietly.
"This is really a special family," Alexander walked back to the window and looked outside. Uliu was no longer underneath, looking at the people coming and going in the castle. Alexander thought about this trip to Cosenza.
Although he had just arrived, it can be seen that Keizer did n’t seem to like him. Probably this is related to the news that Mahimo had heard. If Keizer really hoped that Rosa would marry a certain Earl of Taranto, then He certainly didn't want to see young men suddenly appear beside his sister.
As for the affair of the countess, although this may affect George Anne's so-called feelings for him, after a little pondering, Alexander felt that things were not very bad.
Although the countess was unruly, Alexander could see that she really loved Ruosha.
She can fall and let go with many men herself, but she protects her daughter so tightly, even if a man shows a little attention to Rusha ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ She will drive him away mercilessly. .
"It still seems to start with the Countess." Alexander thought to himself.
Judging from the current situation, even if you disclose your so-called identity, in order to get the full support of the countess, you must first get the favor of the countess.
The door rang softly again, and Uliu appeared at the door, holding a neatly folded dress in his hand.
"Master, which coat are you going to wear for the dinner tonight?" Uliou asked humbly.
Alexander looked at the Moors interestingly because they all knew that he actually only had a decent coat.
"Don't worry about the clothes first," Alexander waved. "Go and prepare something for me, the sooner the better."
"Please tell the master." The Moors bowed their chests again.
"Some gadgets, but they can't be sloppy, I will use them soon." Then, Alexander looked towards the tower where Russa was said to have lived.
