Vol 7 Chapter 31: Portugal's "rise"
Earl Don Luvigo hurriedly walked in the labyrinthine hallway of São Jorge Castle. If there was no servant as a guide, he had already lost his way. In fact, there had indeed been foreign envoys in São Jorge Castle because of not Be careful to get lost and get stuck in this awkward situation where you can't get out of this labyrinth, but more often it is that some people disappear inexplicably after coming in, and have never fallen.
Earl Don Luvigo is a Castilian diplomat in Portugal. This nobleman, called "loyal minister and reliable friend" by Queen Isabella, is also the messenger of Aragon and shoulders two kingdoms. His diplomatic mission made this count the most noticeable foreign aristocrat in Lisbon, and his sudden appearance in the Castle of São Jorge also made many people think about it.
Queen Maria has been under house arrest for a few days. From the beginning to avoid as much as possible to have to take the initiative to ask about the queen, Count Don Luvigo's life is not easy.
He was very worried about the safety of Maria, but at the same time he was even more worried about some changes in Portugal.
Regarding the sudden increase in the interest of the Portuguese in the new colony, Earl Don Luvigo was keenly aware of the possible impact on Castile, as Isabella regarded as the most suitable diplomat, Earl Don Luvigo noticed the importance of this change very early, and then Maria ’s encounter made him realize that maybe things were going in a bad direction.
The conflicts and cracks between the two countries caused by the Portuguese intervention in Castile ’s throne war have not been repaired because Manuel married two Aragon princesses in a row. On the contrary, Castilla has been closely Pay attention to this neighbor, of course, this is also because if one day the Portuguese royal family is heirless because there are no offspring, then they have enough reasons to annex their relative.
Earl Don Luvigo offered to meet Maria, it was a decision that had to be made in the face of more and more rumours about her, although he knew it might make him fall in, maybe even Aroused more conspiracy theories, but he could not care so much at this time.
The only thing that made the count count as a consolation is that Prince Miguel is the son of Mary ’s sister, so it is more or less a "housework". It is conceivable that if the prince ’s mother was not also from Aragon, and What kind of princess is in another country? Then the situation may be terrible.
Maria, who originally lived in the New Royal Palace, has arrived at Saint-Jorge Castle. Although she doesn't like this place, she obviously can't decide now.
Although Manuel did not directly give orders, she was still placed in a relatively remote main building in the castle. This kind of almost semi-open house arrest made Maria finally understand how bad her situation was, so When seeing Earl Don Luvigo, Maria was particularly excited about the arrival of the loyal minister.
"They are framing me, I don't know who wants to pull me off the queen's throne, but I can't let those people's conspiracy succeed." Maria was very tough in front of Count Don Luvigo, She mimicked her mother's back and straightened her spine, holding her hands on the lower abdomen, which looked very imposing.
It's just that Earl Don Luvigo still heard a faint unease from her slightly exaggerated tone.
"Your Majesty, your present situation is not very good," Count Don Lugo tried to comfort Maria, but after thinking about it, he decided to tell her the truth. "The Portuguese think you murdered ... Prince Miguel."
Said that when the earl paused slightly, he could not help flashing a trace of doubt in Mary's eyes.
After all, the temptation of the throne is too great, even for the children of the sisters, after all, it is better to let their children wear the crown, and the count of Don Luvigo ca n’t help but think of Issa when she looks at Maria Queen Bella, he knows that Mary has been deliberately imitating her mother, so in the fight for the throne, is she also like Queen Isabella against her brother Enrique?
When he thought of this, the count, who was confused, looked at Maria with some embarrassment. He knew that if Maria really did this, she would not be able to confess to him, so this made things worse. Too.
Sure enough, the count's expression immediately made Maria aware of something, and she looked at him angrily: "What are you suggesting, count, do you think I killed my sister's child?"
"Your Majesty, this is not the time to distinguish this," Count Don Lugogo reminded Maria helplessly. "You must be forgiven by the king. I mean that no matter what method you use, you must let the king change his mind. Otherwise, this matter may be Will become a disaster between nations. "
Maria stared at Earl Don Luvigo, and after a while she asked with a bit of doubt: "Count, this is the advice you gave me. Let me beg and even use only a slutty woman. In order to obtain the forgiveness of my husband? Is n’t it that you should see the king immediately and tell him to treat his wife like this, a princess from Aragon, should you know what it will cost? "
Listening to Mary's near questioning, Count Don Lugogo couldn't help but a wave of helplessness, he knew that of all the Queen's children, Mary may not be the most like her, but she must be the one who wants to be her most. Now, looking at Mary who is trying to defend her position in a tough way, Count Don Lugogo ca n’t help but worry about what might happen next.
Earl Don Luvigo didn't see the queen for long. Although he was allowed, he decided to leave the land as soon as possible.
Prince Miguel's funeral has decided the time, but no one dared to make any suggestions on whether the queen participated in the matter.
When Earl Don Luvigo saw Manuel, he saw a father with a haggard face. The prince ’s death was obviously deeply hit by Manuel, so that he had been working except for office hours. Lock yourself in the prince's room for a few hours.
Seeing such a king, Count Don Lugo felt his throat seemed to be tightly blocked by something, and he couldn't say anything if he pleaded for the queen.
But he also knows that no matter how hard it is, he must open the mouth, otherwise the situation may really seem to be unable to clean up and develop.
"Your Majesty begs you," Count Don Lugo gave up all dignity and said to Manuel in an almost begging tone. "Please be sure to let the Queen attend Prince Miguel's funeral, otherwise you know what it means, then It ’s not fair to the queen, it will ruin her completely. "
"Then it will be fair to Miguel. Is it fair to let a murderer appear at my son's funeral?" Manuel asked angrily.
"Your Majesty, your accusations are too harsh!" Count Don Lugogo's face changed dramatically. "Please don't forget that Prince Miguel is not only the step-son of Queen Mary but also her nephew, her sister's only Child, and she is an Aragonese princess, do n’t you think it ’s inappropriate to say that? ”
"Count, I think you forgot, she is my wife, I think I have the power to say so."
Manuel's unprecedented toughness made Earl Don Luvigo stupefied for a while. He looked at Manuel in disbelief, not knowing how to answer for a while.
"Please go back, Count, you should know that it is very inappropriate to make such a request at this time," Manuel looked at Count Don Lugo indifferently, and then continued without waiting for him to speak. Before the matter ends, I hope you do n’t do anything that will cause misunderstandings. After all, Lisbon is a bit chaotic after all. "
The unabashed threat of Manuel made Count Don Lugogo dumbfounded. He never expected that things would become like this. Watching Manuel look completely unmoved, Don Lu Count Vigo couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart.
Manuel is right, Maria is his wife, and what is even more embarrassing is that even if he lifts the identity of Princess Aragon from Maria here, it seems completely useless here, Queen Isabella is in This matter is definitely a dilemma, after all, it was her grandson who was killed.
Count Don Luvigo disappointedly left Manuel. He wanted to visit the nobles of Lisbon, but walked all the way from the king's room, he soon discovered that everyone seemed to avoid him as much as possible.
Some of them even made speechless demonstrations directly with hostile eyes, which made Count Don Luvigo feel that he was completely isolated in the Lisbon court.
Several people came to meet in the distance. Earl Don Luvigo saw the figure of Don Antonio. As he was about to walk over, he noticed a young man whose face was a bit strange, but he was not unknown.
Looked at Earl Don Luvigo who was approaching, and Alexander stopped to look at him until the earl came to him.
"Duke." Earl Don Luvigo bowed slightly, seeing Alexander nodded, and he tentatively asked, "Master, can I chat with you alone."
"Of course, Earl."
Alexander smiled slightly, he said hello to Don Antonio and walked towards the courtyard with Count Don Lugogo.
Earl Don Luvigo was a little nervous at this time. He knew that the Duke from Rome was the son-in-law of Pope Alexander VI, which made everyone, like others, wonder whether Manuel would want to get help from the Vatican. This thought made him very uneasy. For a time, his mind was just thinking how to persuade Alexander to stand on his side.
"Count, I do n’t think I will help you," Alexander said to the Castilian nobleman. "I think you already know that I have just returned from Evora. The king has decided to bury Prince Miguel. In the royal cemetery of Evora, this is a very painful thing for the king. "
Earl Don Luvigo can only nodded silently. He knew that Alexander was right. Now Manuel is like a lion that has been completely irritated. Think about it. He has n’t done anything to Maria because of his anger. This is actually very rare.
Count Don Lugogo finally had to leave in disappointment, but he did not get nothing, what surprised him was that he knew something from Alexander, and he will soon go to Castilla.
This made the earl wonder in his heart whether he should send the news back to Valladolid immediately. After all, the special relationship between the duke and the pope cannot be underestimated, and for Isabella's ambition to try to rebuild a new holy place, As her confidant, Count Don Lugogo is very clear.
As for Maria, Earl Don Luvigo felt that besides Queen Isabella, there was probably only God at this time.
The return of Alexandria made Manuel feel a little better. He did n’t even let Alexandria summon him in his room. Although this made a lot of people feel strange, the thought of this duke was according to the king. People were ordered to prepare for the burial of Prince Miguel, and people thought it was all right.
But no one thought that after seeing Alexandria, Manuel immediately couldn't wait to ask: "Duke, have you seen the person you want to see?"
Looking at the anticipating Manuel, Alexander shook his head secretly in his heart. He knew that Manuel ’s desire to get rid of the shadow of the couple of two kings must be very strong. This can be seen from his fierce attitude towards Maria. Come out, and Spain in history has always coveted Portugal, and even launched several annexation wars, either successful or failed.
It's just that Manuel wouldn't think of who he saw, nor would he know who stood in front of him ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ is now also an "accomplice" in the murder of his son.
"Your Majesty, I have sent someone to send letters to King Louis. You know this is very important. After all, for King Louis, once you agree to your request for help, it means that he may have to fight Castile, or even more. We had to fight Aragon earlier, after all, Gonzalo is now in Venice. "
Manuel's expression was slightly tight, although he had made up his mind, but when he heard that he really wanted to be the enemy of the couple, the inexplicable tension made him feel a little suffocated.
He went to the corner and took a full glass of wine from the table and took a sip, then looked at Don Antonio standing aside: "We all know that Prince Enrique has made outstanding contributions to the Kingdom of Portugal. I have been able to get rid of the road that has always been bound, and now I am betting on everything, my crown, throne and the destiny of this country, what I want to see next is that you can be in this conquest related to the destiny of the kingdom win."
"Long live the King." Don Antonio whispered excitedly and repressed.
Looking at the pair of passionate princes, Alexander felt an inexplicable admiration for Count Modillo.
The situation on the Iberian Peninsula has changed because of the fate of several people.
14 years earlier, Portugal joined the battle for the new world.
