The Rise of the European Emperor
Chapter 1077 Looking for a substitute
Seeing that Mbappe was nervous, Julius II also guessed that there was a problem. Anyway, he was on Marin's side. So he commanded:
"In that case, let's send someone to France first to see if Margaret, the former Queen of Scotland, is really pregnant! By the way, as for Queen Margaret's oil painting..."
Marin glanced at Saqqara, and Saqqara hurriedly stood up and assured:
"I'll send someone to London to get it right away!"
In the end, Julius II made a decision-first sent a team including three nuns to Paris to see if Queen Margaret was really pregnant. Then, make other plans.
Marin smiled, feeling that he was winning. The French ambassador, Mbappe, was full of frustration. However, he did not admit that it was a lie on the spot, but sent people back to China to report the situation non-stop the next day. In his thinking, he hoped that France would pay a lot of money to buy off the members of the Holy See's representative team, thus convincing the lie.
After receiving the secret letter from Mbappe, Louis XII's nose was crooked:
"Bastard, you bastard! Why expose it so early? Can't it be a few more months later?"
John Stewart had only been dead for four months. Even if he was pregnant just after marriage, Queen Margaret should have been pregnant for about half a year at this time, which is still far from the expected date of delivery. And after Pope Julius II and Louis XII chose to form an alliance with Alexander VI, he was no longer with France. The person who can be dispatched by him must be his cronies, how can he possibly be bought off? So, Mbappe is a pig...
However, if Mbappe did not speak out at that time, Edward was judged to be the rightful king of Scotland. Speaking of which, he had to do it at the time...
"What to do...what to do..." Louis XII also had a headache.
"Perhaps, we can discuss with her..." Louis XII, who couldn't think of an idea, simply found Queen Margaret.
After telling the story, Louis XII looked at Queen Margaret anxiously and said:
"Look, what's the solution? If it doesn't work out, that bastard Edward will be crowned King of Scotland!"
After listening to Louis XII's words, Queen Margaret was silent for a long time, and suddenly said:
"Your Majesty, I heard that there is a condition called premature birth..."
Louis XII was taken aback and said:
"I know,
However, the chances of premature babies surviving are very low..."
In this era, European medicine is extremely backward, adults are easy to die from a cold, not to mention premature babies who are naturally sick? Even in the Ming Dynasty with the most advanced medical sciences, the chances of premature babies surviving in the end are not very high. Even if he survives, he will still be a sick child when he grows up. And in Europe, where doctors popularized bloodletting and prescribing tinctures, the chances of premature babies surviving were slim.
Margaret said coldly:
"It's not that no premature babies survived, although the odds are indeed very small. However, we have the final say on whether we survive or not, don't we?"
Louis XII suddenly realized:
"What do you mean, you pretended to be premature and gave birth to a premature baby?"
Margaret nodded and said:
"Yes, I can pretend to be premature. Generally speaking, there is a possibility of premature birth after 7 months. Your Majesty, you can send someone to trouble the delegation of the Holy See and delay their progress. As long as it is delayed for more than a month, I will Premature birth can be faked. Then, you go to the folk to find a boy who was born very thin to pretend to be a premature baby..."
"Good idea, but I have a question. It seems that every woman who has given birth to a child should have the ability to breastfeed. At that time... if the nuns of the Holy See delegation see if you can breastfeed..." Louis XII reminded road.
Margaret blushed suddenly, but she has not given birth to a child yet, how can she know what breastfeeding is... Besides, she has not given birth to a child, and she really can't express milk...
After thinking about it, Queen Margaret said:
"It's not that there are no women who don't produce milk after giving birth..."
Louis XII shook his head and said:
"Premature birth and lack of milk, one situation can be considered accidental, and two situations together, it's strange that they don't doubt it..."
...
Queen Margaret fell silent...
Louis XII was right, the people in the Holy See delegation might not doubt it. However, it is too coincidental that the two are put together, and it cannot help but make people suspicious.
Thinking of Louis XII's previous introduction, Margaret suddenly thought of another way:
"Your Majesty, you said just now that they sent someone to London to pick up the oil paintings for comparison, instead of sending someone here, right?"
Louis XII nodded:
"Yes what's the matter?"
Margaret smiled:
"I have a solution!"
"How?" Louis XII asked happily. As long as Edward could not be king of Scotland, he was happy.
Margaret cleared her throat and said:
"Since the other party is comparing with oil paintings, then why don't we find a woman who looks like me to deal with them? I happened to have a pair of my oil paintings collected in London with me. Your Majesty, you just need to find a long They have to deal with pregnant women like me. Anyway, they will not confront people who are familiar with me, but only look for oil paintings for comparison. As long as His Majesty can find a pregnant young woman similar to the oil painting in France , can handle this inspection..."
Louis XII thought about it and raised concerns:
"No, what if you find a commoner woman who doesn't understand Latin? The Holy See investigation team will definitely ask questions in Latin." In this era of Europe, there is no princess who can't speak Latin.
Margaret thought about it for a while, and found that this was really incomprehensible, so she could only sigh:
"That can't be helped. Otherwise, let the refresher pretend to be sick and pretend that it is difficult to speak. It is normal for people who are seriously ill to have difficulty speaking."
"No matter how ill you are, you won't say a word."
"Then give that woman emergency training so that she can speak a few simple words in Latin. It's hard to speak with pretending to be sick, and a few simple words are enough!"
"Well, that's the only way!" Louis XII sighed, and began to instruct his men to search across the country to find a pregnant woman who looked like her in the oil painting provided by Queen Margaret to play the pregnant Margaret. special.
At the same time, Louis XII also sent a number of teams to the French-Italian border, trying every means to delay the trip of the Holy See delegation. Because it takes time to find a substitute for Queen Margaret and train to speak Latin. So, the sooner the Holy See team arrives in Paris, the better...
...
As for the city of Rome, at this time, Felice also brought little Robert, escorted by the cavalry of the North Sea Kingdom, and quietly arrived in the city of Rome.
After arriving in Rome, Felice quietly checked into the expensive hotel where Marin was staying. Robert Jr. was taken to the private house of Julius II and handed over to the fake "parents" from the Rovere family who lived in seclusion in the mountains prepared by Julius II for him. Led by the Second World, he made a public appearance and was introduced to the public.
And in this public appearance, Robert Jr.'s fluent Italian with a Roman accent didn't arouse anyone's suspicion. It's no wonder that Robert's mother Felice and aunt Angela both grew up in Rome and speak fluent Italian with a Roman accent. In normal times, in order to cultivate Robert Jr.'s ability to adapt to life in Rome in the future, he also deliberately asked Angela and Ferris to speak Italian to Robert. Even, in order to cooperate with Robert in speaking Italian well, little Caesar is now fluent in Italian.
Julius II told everyone that this descendant of the family named "Robert Rovere" would be under his shadow and become a cardinal. Once you turn 18, you can serve in the Holy See…
In order to prevent himself from surviving Robert's adulthood, Julius II directly signed the appointment letter in advance and handed it over to Robert Jr. However, this appointment will not take effect until Robert turns 18.
After the cutscene, Julius II found fake "parents" for Robert to cover, and took little Robert and returned to the mountains to continue seclusion as agreed.
In fact, Robert Jr. quietly returned to Rome that night and joined Marin.
At this point, Marin had nothing to do in Italy. So, he simply took Felice and Robert and followed the army all the way north to return to the mainland of Beihai...
