Vol 7 Chapter 127: Queen's Puzzle

Uliu held a large handful of wildflowers and walked briskly through the muddy and dirt-laden street. Although there were shallow trenches along the roadside, and the street was built slightly higher in the middle and lower on both sides so that it could drain as quickly as possible. But the bumpy pavement was still full of muddy water after the rain the night before and smelly manure everywhere.
Barriado is not a very suitable city for a large population, and the Isabella couple apparently already knew this, so they have already planned to choose another capital, but it is still difficult to achieve this step, at least In the eyes of many people, it was unlikely in the era of Isabella's husband and wife.
Uliu carefully walked through those dirty places, he didn't care if he got feces under his feet, but thinking about the people he wanted to see, he thought it was better to clean himself and decent.
The conqueror square in Barialido is well-known. It was specially built to commemorate the Castilian General Basten who drove the Moors away from the city. The conqueror square is wide and narrow in the south and looks like A long sword built by a pie, the Castile Treasury Officer Don Macrosbine lives in a house on the north side of the square.
This building, obviously in the early Gothic style, looks majestic and slightly eerie, with a few pointed spires pointing directly at the sky, giving the illusion that there might be something ghostly flying out of it at any time.
Don Mark Rothbane is over 50 years old. He was the treasurer next to Isabella in his early years. As a princess's financial manager, the manager was still loyal and was persecuted by Enrique in Isabella for evasion. When marrying Portugal's fate and having to live in exile, Don Macrosbine played an important role in her most embarrassing encounter.
The treasurer tried every possible means to solve her urgent needs for the princess, and in order to catch the people who might leave at any time because of Isabella's embarrassment, he racked his brains and guaranteed Isabella with limited money The exile team can live a decent life.
The donation of Don Marklos Byrne did indeed pay off later. After Isabelle, the first person she rewarded and promoted was her former treasurer, and she became Tang, the treasurer of the kingdom. · Mark Rothbane did not fail the Queen ’s trust.
When Ferdinand refused to fund Columbus because of the end of the domestic financial tensions to recover the landless war, Isabella still insisted on paying a large sum of money for the adventurer to explore possible new routes, and Don Markrosby En then raised a large amount of money for the Queen's "willful" move, which ensured that Columbus can successfully achieve the feat of exploring the Atlantic.
What Uliu wants to visit is the home of the kingdom treasury officer, but he is not to see Don Makrosbane himself, but the kitchen lady of his family.
The light car passed through the small door dedicated to the servants on the side of the house. Uliu stopped a little at the corner of the garden and looked at it. When he saw the gardener and the groom saw him waving his hand, Uliu pulled out one from his arms. The packet was thrown over, and there were a few pieces of honey in it, which was enough to bribe the person to let him go, so Uliu kept walking through the garden at his feet, and then followed the two maids who smiled when he saw him. Mixed into the kitchen.
The kitchen lady of the Treasury ’s family looks pretty good. She is a young woman of Moorish origin. A few years ago, her husband was declared invalid after paying another sum of money in accordance with the arrangements of the home church, and then the husband She was happy to marry the daughter of the landlord's family, and she and her children were not only expelled from the house, but also had to flee from their hometown to Bariari Dodd.
Fortunately, this woman has good cooking skills. After many setbacks, she became the kitchen lady of the treasury official's family. Now she is in charge of the dining table of the treasury official's family, and because of her exquisite craftsmanship, she likes it.
Uliu met her
unintentionally
in the market. He helped her to recapture the money stolen by the thief. It was money for buying food for the owners of the treasury officials. If it was stolen like this It's troublesome to walk a young cook.
The "good-hearted Moors" became friends of the young cook lady, and his cheerful and pleasant personality also made the cook lady have a good impression on him. In fact, not only the cook lady, but other servants in the treasury official's house also I really like this guy. He often brings them a variety of fresh gadgets, sometimes they are small jewelry with unique shapes, and sometimes they are eccentric eating, which makes Uliu quickly In the treasury official's house like no one.
Seeing Uliu holding the flower strenuously walked towards her from the two servants who were in front of her, the kitchen lady laughed.
She is still young, although he is younger, not even much bigger than her children, but the cook lady thinks this is okay, he at least does not seem to dislike their family, if she can become his wife, the cook lady believes that Uliu must Is a very good stepfather.
"You look beautiful today."
Wuliu put the flowers in a clay pot next to beans, and then he started to help the kitchen lady with his hands and feet. This is why the servants of the treasury officials like him, although he I came here to find the cook, but the young man did not mean his energy at all. He was willing to help everyone work, and he always chatted with everyone while working.
And Uliu is not only talkative, but also flattering. For such a clever and smart guy, it is difficult for someone to hate him.
After a long time, even the host thought that there was a young Moor who worked part-time.
"It's a little late to cook today," Uliu glanced casually at the case and said, "And today's dishes are the same as yesterday?"
"Yesterday I did n’t go home. I arrived at the house this morning. After I came back, I was said to be sleepy and sleepy. Then, at this time, I started to call for lunch." The internal organs of the pigeon with open stomach seemed to show off. She also deliberately played a knife in front of Uliu and then looked at Uliu with a look of praise.
"Then you are really hard work," Uliu obviously didn't understand the chef's mind very quickly this time. While he washes the vegetables under his hands, he then asked, "It seems that the masters these days It ’s been outside, oh, would n’t it be a lover? "
"How is it possible," the next servant heard and immediately came over and said excitedly, "The old man is a very careful person, and the groom knows where the old man is. He did not say where the old man went to meet the woman."
"But the groom may have taken the master's reward, but he is a wealth fan."
Another servant leaned in. The secret stories of the host family were naturally talked about by the servants, so in a happy atmosphere, people began to guess how the treasurer ’s lover grows, whether it is tall or short, Is it fat or thin, or simply a Moorish woman?
Uliu sits and listens with a smile. Of course, there are other people in Barriadod for him to use. Tiego has done very well in the past two years, but he will take care of himself. The Treasury ’s official business
is because Don Macrosbine is one of Isabella ’s most loyal ministers.
If Isabella had any problems, she would always think of Don Mark Lose Byrne. Similarly, if she really fell ill and Ferdinand was secret for various reasons, then Don Mark Lose Byne would also be sure It is one of the few people who knows the truth.
"I can swear that the lord is doing serious things these days," a servant bickered with others, arguing with other people's sarcasm, and he said stiffly, "I saw the Moorish and He is together. "
The kitchen immediately calmed down, and the servants looked at each other and they didn't seem to want to talk about this topic anymore.
Uliu, who was washing vegetables next to her, narrowed her eyes slightly.
If it is in Rome Thesia or even the city of Rome, if someone mentions "that Moorish" in a rather unique tone, then people will know that they are talking about the imperial official of the Principality of Rome Thesia and the court chief of Pisa And in Castile, when people refer to "the Moor" in this way, everyone knows that the other person is talking about the Moorish bodyguard beside Isabella.
About the relationship between the Moorish and Isabella, this has always been a topic of private talk in the Castilians, even though there is an extraordinary respect for the Queen, but people still It is difficult to resist inner curiosity.
It's just that no one has dared to talk about the Queen publicly in the past year or two. The religious court of Thomas Tongomada has become an invisible noose hanging above everyone's head. To be honest, Thomas Tongomadda used this terrible mentality of self-defeating to almost cast the entire Castilla in his hands.
But for Uliu these news are enough.
Obviously Don Marklos Byrne was out early and late at this time, or even stayed at night. It was not to meet a little lover, but to stay close to the Queen ’s Moore, and think about Isabella who has not appeared in public for some days. , Uliu is more certain that the queen may be really ill.
Of course, there is an easier way to prove this speculation, that is, to find Thomas Tangomadama who claims to be accompanying the queen to make a silent wish, but think about this person's whereabouts, and because of his more around It was priests who weren't close, Uliu thought it was better to be careful.
Perhaps it is because there are too many people hurt. Thomas Tongomada is always suspicious of people around him, so that he becomes difficult to get along with, and it is not easy to get trust. Uliu even thinks that it is precisely because of his Guri The eccentric character makes him one of the most difficult enemies to deal with, because he can't imagine what he will do next.
Uliu also strongly opposed Alexander ’s direct contact with Thomas Tongomada. He thought it was too dangerous, because even if there were no flaws, but in the face of such a paranoid and crazy person, he could not guess what he was thinking. I don't know what he will do, which makes him extremely dangerous.
"The queen should be ill," Uliu, dressed as a salesman at Alexander's residence, reported, "Don Marklos Byrne has been staying in the palace for a few days, and he has not returned overnight yesterday. And his groom saw that he was with the Moorish attendant beside the queen. "
Alexander nodded silently as he listened. He also heard of the Moorish servant. Speaking of that, the relationship between the man and Isabella was a very sensitive topic in Bariaridot.
At first, many people secretly thought that Ferdinand might one day kill the Moor, because whenever he appeared, it was actually a silent satire on Ferdinand.
But in the end the Moor was alive and well, but the rumors about the Queen and her Moorish servants disappeared as the Tribunal's business flourished.
"sick?"
Although this possibility has been thought of before, when it really happened, Alexander discovered that it seemed that many things were not ready.
In other words, he did not have much confidence in facing Ferdinand directly.
In the history of Ferdinand, after Isabella died, he could withstand the obstruction and destruction of the old forces from the two countries, and he could turn the tide and solidify the two countries that seem to be completely divided. He won valuable time for the establishment of a unified Spanish kingdom by Charles V many years later. This shows that this man has a strong wrist that has not lost any wise monarch, which is why Alexander is deeply taboo against Ferdinand. .
It can even be said that in the long run, Ferdinand is more dangerous than Isabella.
"If Isabella really fell ill," Alexander's eyes flashed, his eyes glancing at Uliu "who is the most important at this time?"
"Princess Juana," Uliu's black face brightened instantly, and he scratched his curly short hair hard, and his eyes showed excitement. "Princess and Philip are now in the highland castle across the Tallois If we master Princess Juana, things may become more interesting. "
"Maybe it will get worse." Alexander murmured to himself, he knew exactly what fate would be for Juana after Isabella's death.
Speaking of this, Isabella was very strict with Juana, but at least when she was alive, she was kind and tolerant to this daughter, but with Isabella ’s death, Juana ’s tragic fate came. .
"Go and find out more about Juana," Alexander told Uliou. "Now she is a key figure. If Isabella is really sick, she may be regent at any time."
"Master, why didn't Ferdinand rule Castilla instead of the queen?" Uliou asked a little puzzled. "We all know that the princess has some ..." Uliu thought about pushing her with one finger. Turned her forehead twice. "In short, she doesn't look normal."
"Have you already seen Juana?" Alexander asked the Moors with a smile.
"Not yet, but I have heard too many things about her, lord, this princess has a problem here." Uliu pointed his head again and said, "The Castilians will let such a woman be their Queen? "
"But they don't want to see Ferdinand sitting on the throne. Compared with an Aragonese, the Castilians would rather let a lunatic take the crown."
Alexander knew that Uliu probably thought his words were alarmist, but he knew that it might not be accurate enough.
In fact, it is the extent that many Castilians hate the Aragonese even more than the Portuguese.
"I believe that Ferdinand will not be stupid enough to carry the crown of Castile on his head. If he waits for him like that, it will be a civil war."
Uliu thought about it and shrugged immediately. He didn't plan to think about things that should not be bothered by him. Now he had to think about how to approach Juana.
But before that, he needed to know what kind of plan Alexander had.
"Master, if we can see alone or simply get the princess out of the castle, what should we do next?"
"It depends on how far Isabella's condition has gone," Alexander said, standing up and pacing slowly, his eyebrows slightly condensed, and there was a hint of anxiety vaguely in his expression. Anna is in your hands, how sure are you that you can take her out of Bariaridaud without being discovered? "
Uliu was suddenly taken aback. Although he had already thought about this possibility, Alexander actually asked him that he was still a little nervous.
But more is excitement.
Hijacking a princess of a country, and being an heir to the throne, the risks and the terrible consequences may be chilling when you think about it. Even if you just think about it, you will be trembling with excitement.
"We, no, it should be said that Tiego has been preparing here for a long time," Uliou replied very seriously. He knew that this time he must let the master understand everything clearly, and only then Alexander would not do it because of unknown circumstances. Make wrong judgments and decisions. "According to my opinion in Bariari Dode during this time, I think we are sure to do it, but the princess is always crazy, and I do n’t know if she will do stupid things by then. Come, know that a normal person may be afraid of a knife, but a lunatic ... "
Uliu shrugged helplessly.
In order to inquire about Juana's news, Uliu had thought about it before, but the more he heard, the more he felt that maybe the master's intention to start with that woman might not be a good idea.
"Isabella," Alexander clenched his fists hard, and his eyebrows were tighter. "It would be nice if she knew what she was doing now, if Isabella's condition had not reached the point where Juana needed regency. It ’s possible that Ferdinand will be vigilant in advance, and it ’s not easy to master Lord Juana at that time. "
"So I still need to understand the situation of the queen as soon as possible."
Uliu whispered to himself, seeing Alexander nod slowly, the Moors silently packed up the boxes on the table.
"Be careful, Uliu," Alexander said to the Moors who were about to go out. "I really want to know Isabella's situation, but I don't want you to be surprised by this."
Uliu grinned and smiled, his white teeth under his thick lips looked conspicuous.
"Please rest assured, lord, I know what to do," he said with a smile, lowering his voice and said, "I want to see you sitting on the throne wearing a crown, I think it must be very powerful, maybe only Only Leonardo da Vinci or the master Raphael can draw such a portrait for you. "
"If there is a day, you must stand on my left," Alexander was amused by Uliu's words, and then he said with a look, "Remember Uliu's words today, just to be able to stay in my portrait. You have to be careful about this trace. "
Uliu bowed to Alexandria and walked out of the room carrying the cargo box. After seeing Sher in the corridor outside, he bowed again like a normal merchant, and then quickly and carefully. Step away.
When Schell entered the room and saw Alexander looking out of the window, he walked past lightly, standing not far from Alexander and waiting.
After a long time, Alexander seemed to recover, and he turned to look at Shell and asked, "Tell me, Shell, why are you following me?"
The Balkans looked at Alexander unexpectedly, and they didn't seem to know where to start. After thinking about it, he asked, "Are you going to listen to the truth, sir?"
"Of course." Alexander encouraged him. "Tell me what you think?"
"It started because I could make more money. You know that I fought many noble lords. They are not as generous as you," Schell said, embarrassed, and then he moved his eyebrows. "But then it was not just I ’ve made enough money. I could have returned home to live a prosperous life, but then I ’m just a landlord, but it ’s not the same as you. I still want to earn a knighthood for my children in the future. "
Looking at Hill's expression, his expression became warmer, and Alexander smiled.
He knew that Sher was really telling the truth, not just him, Compati, Thiego, Nomelo and Skop, and the Kurash brothers from the Balkans, these people, they all because of this and that Will follow him.
What is Uliu for?
Compared with others, Uliu seems to be more purely loyal, but Alexander does not believe that loyalty is the only reason he is willing to follow himself.
However, he knew that now he had reached this point, so no matter how difficult the future was, he had to go on.
This is no longer a matter for him alone, in addition to those who follow him, and his women are waiting for him to pluck a noble crown for them.
Uliu is very useful ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Two days later, when Alexander was walking in the palace, a maid suddenly came to him in a hurry, and then it seemed a bit busy but not as afraid Put a note in his hand.
Alexander looked around immediately, and when he saw nobody paying attention, he found a corner and opened the note.
A little poem with rhythm and not very smooth appeared on it.
It was the first love poem, and the content above seemed to be the feeling of admiration that a lady told him.
But Alexander saw the secret memory of Uliu in an obscure place in this love letter.
He didn't care about which Moorish urged the Castilian lady to attack herself, the key was that Uliu finally heard the exact news about Isabella.
"Sick, bleeding, priest, pray."
Alexander saw this news, and his heart tightened for a moment.
