The Rise of the European Emperor

After completing the negotiation, Malin North returned to the country, and the emperor also rode north with him to discuss matters with his son and grandson in the Netherlands. This kind of thing is too secret, and the emperor dare not explain in the letter, once it is leaked, it will be a disaster. So, regardless of his 57-year-old age, the emperor rode north to the Netherlands to talk secretly with his son.

"What? Let Charlie marry Princess Anna?" Prince Philip was surprised when he heard the old emperor's plan.

But after listening to that vicious trick, unlike the emperor who felt guilty, Prince Philip, who had a cold nature, made up his mind almost without hesitation:

"Okay, let Charlie marry Princess Anna. But we must take the opportunity to ask His Majesty Vladislas II-Prince Lajosh must marry our Mary!"

Maximilian I also nodded:

"Of course, Prince Lajos marrying Mary is the premise for all of this to happen."

In the face of huge and incomparable interests, the father and son, who had never been at odds, stood on the same position for the first time in a tacit understanding. When the 16-year-old Prince Charles couldn't marry his beautiful and rich cousin, but could only marry the mediocre bohemian princess Anna, he was so angry that he didn't want to eat for two days.

His younger brother Ferdinand was the opposite. He was overjoyed to learn that he could marry a beautiful cousin of the same age and get a lot of money. Before, because of his own conditions, he knew that he had no possibility of competing with his brother, and he felt sad. Today, the wise grandfather actually asked his elder brother to marry the mediocre Princess Anna, and asked himself to marry the "goddess" Princess Isabella, which made him overjoyed.

Seeing that his good grandson refused to eat for two days, Maximilian I was extremely helpless. However, Charlie was still young, and those conspiracies could not be told to him. If they leaked out, it would be a big trouble.

Therefore, Maximilian I can only find Charles, implying that if he marry Princess Anna, he may get two very large and powerful kingdoms of Hungary and Bohemia, and their two crowns...

Prince Charles was, after all, the one who was often taught by Maximilian I and spent a few months in Austria every year. Unlike in the original history, although it was not taught by the smart aunt Margaret, but because his father did not die as early as in the original history, the Netherlands does not need him, and Spain does not need him. sit down.

Therefore, every winter, Prince Charles goes south to Austria to escape the cold, and by the way, accepts the teachings of his grandfather. Maximilian I was a higher-ranking politician than his daughter Margaret. Under his teaching, Prince Charles is no worse than the historical Charles V.

so,

After two days of starvation and his grandfather's sincere persuasion, he had no choice but to accept this "cruel" fate.

However, no matter how he asked, Maximilian I never told him why marrying Princess Anna would get the Kingdom of Hungary and Bohemia.

Of course he knew of the agreement that Maximilian I signed with Vladislas II to inherit each other's territory if the other party died out. But Prince Lajos, the heir of Bohemia and Hungary, is alive and well. Did his grandfather plan to assassinate Prince Lajos? With all kinds of brain-filling ideas, Prince Charles resumed eating.

At dinner, his romantic father also came to visit him. I saw the romantic Prince Philip patted Prince Charles on the shoulder and said:

"Don't be discouraged, son. Isn't it just marrying an unbeautiful princess? Don't be afraid, father will find you ten or eight beautiful mistresses, and make sure that none of them are worse than Princess Isabella..."

Prince Philip, relying on his handsome appearance and high status, has harmed many girls in the Netherlands. There are more than a dozen mistresses alone, and his wife Juana is so angry that he often fights with him. But Prince Philip, as a classic scumbag, naturally has a lotus tongue and can speak well. Often Juana quarreled with him, and he could always coax Juana in the end. Then, continue slag...

Prince Charles is also a little dissatisfied with his father's behavior, but this kind of thing is common among the big nobles. Even the seemingly decent grandfather Maximilian I had two or three mistresses outside. In this era, the monarch has no mistresses, and is embarrassed to say hello to people when he goes out... Even the dignified Pope, the last Pope Alexander VI, has several mistresses. This Pope Julius II also had a mistress...

After thinking about it, Prince Charles said while eating:

"Okay, I'll give my cousin to my brother. But, Dad, you have to help me find some girls who look like my cousin..."

"No problem, find a few little lovers who look like Princess Isabella, right? It's on me!" Prince Philip snapped his fingers, and quickly called for the scumbags who usually help him find women. This issue. In order to do things well, Prince Philip sent that subordinate to go to Lisbon under the pretext of giving gifts among relatives, and saw the appearance of Princess Isabella herself. Then, go to the Dutch folk to find a girl who looks like...

Later, Prince Charles had several lovers who looked like cousins. Moreover, every time he is with these lovers, Prince Charles will automatically bring them into the scene and call them "cousin".

Then, after the younger brother married the genuine Princess Isabella, he also tried to secretly hook up with the cousin who had become a younger brother. Fortunately, Princess Isabella ignored him, and Ferdinand moved because of this, reducing his contacts with his brother...

...

After all the arrangements were made, in the end, only Prince Charles was left unhappy. Of course, there is also an ignorant and ignorant Princess Mary who was tricked without knowing it...

Afterwards, Maximilian I and Prince Philip sent representatives to contact Vladislas II and put forward a proposal to change relatives. Vladislas II did not know that he was trapped, and was satisfied with his son marrying the noble Princess Mary, and then signed a marriage contract. However, because Maximilian I wanted to cooperate with Marin in acting, he suggested to secretly sign a marriage contract and make an official announcement after three years. Vladislas II did not know why, but agreed.

Then, it's time for the acting...

The Habsburg family continued to contact the Portuguese royal family and ambiguously agreed to the marriage, without specifying whether it was Prince Charles or Prince Ferdinand and Princess Isabella.

Then, according to the plan negotiated by the father and son, Prince Philip publicly expressed his strong interest in the marriage of his second son Ferdinand with the Princess Margaret of England.

But soon after, Emperor Maximilian I also stated that he did not support the marriage plan. But Prince Philip seems to have a very tough attitude, saying that he will marry England...

This drama of the father-son rivalry within the Habsburg family was astonished by the crowd of melon eaters...

Later, Marin's statement made the people who eat melon even more excited - Marin publicly stated that what is mine is mine, don't just grab it!

Obviously, the relationship between the once close Habsburg family and the North Sea country has created a huge rift because of this...

Then the anti-Habsburg princes of Germany got excited...
