The Eagle of Eastern Europe
Chapter 550: Escape
Peter still had to discuss this plan with the army commander, so he went to meet his future in-laws first.
The Duke of Bourbon was a little nervous because he was about to face the most powerful man in Europe. I have never been so nervous when facing the Queen before.
"Your Majesty has arrived!"
Following the eunuch's cry, the Duke saw a noble man with a majestic face and purple robes. This must be the emperor.
"I have met the emperor of the Roman Empire. May your empire always be strong."
The Duke saluted Peter, who was also satisfied with his relative.

"Okay, we will be a family from now on, so we don't need to be so alienated."
Hearing what the emperor said, the Duke knew about his daughter's marriage and the emperor agreed. Being able to catch up with the Bartland family would allow them to take off directly, and even the Duke of Burgundy would have to consider it.
"This is also thanks to His Majesty for the importance he places on us. It is my daughter's luck to marry His Majesty's son."
"Your daughter, oh, is called Elizabeth. I think it's great. Set the wedding date now and tell other countries."
Seeing the emperor's permission, Rang felt that he had really won the jackpot, and he had to prepare everything quickly. There is also a dowry for the daughter, even if it is borrowed money, it must be prepared.
The royal announcement has come out. Alexander, the prince of the Roman Empire, will be engaged to Elizabeth, the daughter of the French Duke of Bourbon. The envoys who originally thought they were wavering now completely understood, and at the same time they envied the Duke of Bourbon's good luck.
Yes, they all believed that the Duke of Bourbon was lucky enough to be favored by Rome. If Stuart had not refused, he would not have had this incredible wealth.
But now that things have come to this, they still have to congratulate them. At least the other party's status is really going to rise. They quickly went to curry favor.
Peter prepared a grand banquet to welcome the envoys from afar, and gave away all kinds of precious ingredients for free. At the same time, envoys from various countries also attended the banquet.
Peter announced his son's marriage to everyone, and the ambassadors also sent their blessings to the newlyweds. After these few days of getting along, Alexander gradually accepted Elizabeth, and Elizabeth also remembered her mother's teachings. It was impossible for her to resist. The only way was to make her future husband fall in love with her.
Although Elizabeth is only 10 years old, she has already begun to train herself. After all, this is her future residence. How to survive became her next lesson.
"The Duke of Bourbon is really lucky. He has such a powerful family. No one can despise him."
"That's not all. The Duke of Orleans and the Duke of Burgundy will have to worry about him. Romania will use him to attack France at any time."
The ambassadors of Genoa and Milan discussed this engagement of the century. Bourbon had strong foreign aid, and Rome had an excuse to attack France, achieving a win-win situation.
"Also, I heard that Brandenburg has reached an agreement with the Teutons. The treaty will be signed in the next few days, and the whole world will be at peace."
"Yeah, the whole world. But the price to pay is too high."
The Catholic world paid for an elector, a king of England, several republics and hundreds of thousands of square kilometers of land in exchange for a fragile peace with the Orthodox Church.
At the same time, the trade situation that had just been reversed suddenly reversed again. They had to trade with Rome again with real money and silver, and their wealth shrank again.
"Anyway, peace has come, although I don't know how many years it will last."
At this time, they can only keep an eye on Rome at all times to prevent the other party from making new war moves, otherwise they will suffer another disaster.

Hus, who had been walking for many days on the country road, was exhausted. In order to avoid those troops, he could only stay in hiding during the day and go out at night. Ask for food from farmers' homes and avoid large villages and towns.
He knew that Sigismund would portray himself as a wanted criminal and that going directly to Prague would be asking for trouble. So he decided to take a detour to Brno, the center of Orthodox Christianity, and then into Prague.
Hus held a torch and carried the package through the woods. He begged these things from the farmers, and if they were gone, he would be doomed.
"Come on Huss, there's still a ways to go to the chapel. You'll be safe once you get there."
Relying on cheering himself up, Hus kept walking. But not far away, he heard some sounds, and then a ball of fire.
It sounded like there were a lot of people, and horses. Hus quickly extinguished the torch, squatted down to check, and found a group of robbers resting.
"Ah, that's really unlucky. Those people only have so much money?"
"Don't worry, as long as we can catch Hus, they will give us 100,000 gold coins."
Hus was startled when he heard about his reward, but he held it back. At this time, he was not far away from the other party. If he let the other party know that he was Hus, he would be in trouble.
"What on earth did this man commit? Why did the king personally offer a reward? It's still so much money."
"Who knows? We are only responsible for getting money to do things, and don't mention anything else."
"The boss is right, catch him and we will make a fortune."
These people drank and ate meat around the campfire, and bragged from time to time. Seeing that their attention was focused on this, Hus decided to take a risk.
Although it would be safer to wait until they were asleep, it was too dangerous now and he had to get to Brno as soon as possible. Having made up his mind, he watched the bandits as he moved north around them.
Hus looked at the other person every step he took, for fear that the other party would notice him. At the same time, be careful where you step and don't make any noise. And the other party obviously didn't pay attention and only focused on drinking.
"God bless me and keep me going."
Hus thought silently in his heart, and soon gradually moved away from the other party. After reaching a certain distance, he started to let go and run.
He didn't even use a torch, just running in the dark. He fell many times along the way, but he got up immediately and continued running. Even if his hands were bruised and he lost one of his shoes, he didn't care. He finally saw an empty space and escaped from the forest.
At this time, Hus could finally take a breath. Things here were too risky. Fortunately, he was able to escape without any danger.
After resting against the trees for a while, Hus continued on the road, walking along the country dirt road, and finally saw a small church at dawn. Looking at the dome above, he knew that his destination had arrived.
Huss hurried forward and knocked on the door with his last strength. After knocking a few times, maybe he was too tired and passed out. At this time, the priest of the church also opened the door. Seeing the unconscious Hus, he quickly had him carried in.
