Vol 7 Chapter 128: Shear wings

A maid came to the bed with a bowl of pungent, coloring herbs that looked even more terrifying. She first looked at Isabella, who was sleeping in bed, and after beckoning another servant to help Pick up the wooden spoon in the bowl, and pick up a spoonful of sticky herbs that are still steaming.
Isabella opened her eyes vaguely. She felt that the whole body was soft with dizziness. The previous bloodletting had made her body weaker and weaker. The doctor no longer cut his wrist with a knife. Instead, she used big leeches to take her blood in turn, so every time she saw those fat leeches that were n’t creeping, Isabella felt sick and afraid from the bottom of her heart.
But whether it was Ferdinand or a doctor, or those trusted ministers who knew she was sick, these people all agreed that bloodletting was a good way. At least her fever seemed to be receding. Now, touching her hand not only No longer scalding and still chilling, these people are showing signs of getting better.
This made those Castilians very happy, some even changed their attitude towards Ferdinand, but somehow, Isabella felt like she was getting weaker, especially in the last two days, She always went to sleep unconsciously, and once she fell asleep, she couldn't wake up, which made her feel very scared.
The queen had to tell the doctor about her situation, and the doctor's answer was that she needed to use more fumigation to drive off the disease in her body.
Smoked medicine is not used for eating. This kind of thick ointment made from materials that do not know where to come from needs to be applied to the patient's body when it is hot, and then the medicine in the ointment will penetrate the body. , Drive out the terrible disease.
According to the doctor, there is actually a more effective way to achieve immediate results, but that method is too violent, and it seems a little rude to deal with a queen.
"It's also a good idea to use the red hot iron to roll on the feet repeatedly," the doctor said to Ferdinand and several other ministers at that time. Seeing their embarrassing appearance, the doctor also offered another relative The "gentle" prescription, but that prescription is obviously more difficult for people to accept. "Apply those medicines to the queen's lower body, and then the medicine gas can be drilled into the body from underneath."
Hearing this method, Ferdinand immediately rejected the doctor's "good intentions", although he did not expect Isabella to give him another child, but even the doctor himself had to admit it, so toss it down, Issa Bella may be even more difficult in the future.
This method is too dangerous. After denying this treatment plan again, the doctor had to grievously choose the most unreliable method for him.
"Smudge non-stop, as much as possible, don't let the medicine cool down, and put a small stove next to it to warm it up at any time." The doctor standing next to him kept instructing the maids, he could occasionally get through the gap Seeing the skin of the queen who was stripped of clothes made him more excited, so he shouted more cheerfully. "Apply all the potions to your majesty, but leave a piece not to apply, only this way. In order to drive the disease to that specific place, then let me do the next thing. "
Although surrounded by a group of servants, Ferdinand, who was standing by, could still hear Isabella's intermittent painful moans, especially when a bowl of hot potion passed by. The shout is louder.
Ferdinand was anxious, and he was really worried that Isabella might not be able to afford it or even be surprised.
If so, he is bound to face a bad mess, and the huge pressure from all sides will be concentrated on him all at once, he is not ready, at least now he ca n’t bear to lose Isabella. Huge losses.
He hopes that his wife can continue to shoulder this important task with him. This is the dream and hope of the two of them. He does not want to see Isabella leave him so early and throw all the burden to him alone.
Ferdinand walked back and forth anxiously, and the sound from the side of the bed groaned in pain and disturbed him. The day came so suddenly that he was too late to send someone to tell the news to Juana in the Highland Castle .
Although it was just across the Taluwa River, Juana refused to come out because she was locked in the castle, which made things a bit worse.
Ferdinand fears that sending a big fan to bring Juana back to the palace may lead to more speculation. After all, Isabella has not appeared in public for several days. At this time, suddenly bringing Juana back to the palace is easy to guess. What happened to the queen.
And he was not sure that he could bring Juana back to the palace without disturbing too many people. After all, she once threatened those who tried to approach her by jumping off the wall of the castle. If that was the case, Ferdinand Worried that once Juana is fooling around, the entire city of Barrialdod may be clear in a moment.
"Go tell the pope's entourage, I hope to have dinner with the pope." Ferdinand told the people around him after he walked out of the room, he felt that it was no longer possible to delay it and hide it at this time, which was already in Zaragoza. Those things that were revealed to Alexander VI should be fully explained at this time. After all, Isabella's sudden illness has completely disrupted his plan. "And if you want, you can let the Duke of Thesia of Rome accompany."
When referring to the duke, Ferdinand was a bit hesitant. Somehow, he did n’t like the young Roman aristocrat. He always felt that the young duke seemed to have some unspeakable secrets, perhaps because of his previous The reason why I have been to Portugal and contacted those Andalusian nobles, but what Ferdinand really cared about was the Duke's actions in Sicily and Naples.
Ferdinand always felt that it was not so simple for him to destroy Gonzalo in Naples in Sicily. Although he should probably not know that he had the idea of ​​annexing Naples, Ferdinand had a feeling that it seemed that the young man had insight into his calculations , So it was necessary to do everything possible to influence Gonzalo to change the destination of the march.
This made Ferdinand irritated by Gonzalo. He thought that if it were not for the arrogant and arrogant soldier to make the call without permission, then Naples was already in his pocket, but it is meaningless to care about these now. On the contrary, if Ferdinand wants to get help and support from Alexander VI, then he must also be recognized by another Alexander, at least not to let him destroy his good deeds.
Ferdinand ’s invitation made Alexander a little surprised. He originally thought that Ferdinand should be at a loss for Isabella ’s condition, but suddenly such a formal invitation to the pope to dinner, if it was not sent by Uliu people The news proves that Isabella's condition has not improved. He can't help but think that Ferdinand is because the queen is already sick and celebrating.
But after seeing Alexander VI in the Rose Corner Palace where the Pope was standing, Alexander gradually knew Ferdinand's purpose.
"He needs me to support him," Alexander VI was a little excited. This was the first time after he was cast out of Rome that he truly tasted the glory of being the supreme leader of the Christ world again. This made Alexander think that he might regain his old ways. .
But Huang was obviously more sensible than he thought. After showing off for a while, the Pope motioned to Alexander to sit opposite him, then looked at him with interest and asked, "I know why Ferdinand wants to invite me again. Do you have dinner? "
"I think it's because of Isabella."
Alexander did not want to hide the Pope. Now their purpose is clearly the same. More importantly, their interests are also the same. He hopes to get the crown of Castile, and Alexander VI hopes that his descendants will one day have Opportunity touches the kingdom he will stay.
For Alexander VI, he lacked nothing, but his family lacked a crown. Even when his sons were still alive, he always regretted it, but now there is an opportunity to be able to Let the descendants of the Pogia family realize his dream, which is the cornerstone of his cooperation with Alexander.
"Yes, Isabella may be ill, and not too sick," the Pope looked at Alexander with a look of excitement. Seeing that he was not surprised by the news, the Pope revealed a deep meaning. Smile "So who do you think will be the regent of Castile next?"
Alexander was silent, and he and the pope thought of a possibility at the same time, that is, Ferdinand himself may exercise the regency of Castile.
But it is clear that there is an insurmountable obstacle between him and the regency, that is, Juana, who has legal regency and inheritance rights.
"Does he want you to prove that Juana is unable to perform her duties for physical or mental reasons?"
Alexander thought about this possibility seriously, although in Zaragoza, Ferdinand ’s messenger had reached an agreement with the pope, asking him to exchange Ferdinand ’s sermons about depravity and the devil ’s temptation in exchange for Ferdinand in Barialido. His courtesy, but now he has to stand up publicly in support of his opposition to Juana's regency, which requires careful consideration of the possible exchange chips.
"Obviously it is so, I think he will soon propose to me that I must publicly announce that Juana's soul is not pure enough to fulfill its responsibilities as a regent of a Christian nation." The pope said, picking up one of the dishes on the table Shui Lingling's grapes were chewed in his mouth, and he even looked a bit naughty, as if he was guessing someone's mind for himself, and it was unusually elated.
Alexander knew that this was actually a disguise, or that he was really happy that something else should have happened, which made Alexander unable to be careful. He had never underestimated the pope, although he did dig it more than once. An old man, but that was under the premise that Alexander VI always thought he had no reason to do so, and now that the Pope already knew his purpose, he should naturally be more careful.
"What do you want to do?" Alexander decided to put it aside. If the Pope had any excessive demands, he might consider it.
"Estrese is almost 3 years old this year," Alexander VI looked at his son-in-law with great eyes. "Oh, I still remember my lovely granddaughter's smile that day, she was really a cute little one. Girl, I want to wait for her to grow up to be a beauty that reverses all beings. "
Listening to the Pope ’s praise, Alexander ’s face sank slightly, saying that the church is interested in children. This is a tradition with a long history. In his impression, many bishops in France later because of this disgusting tradition During the revolution, they were sent to the guillotine, but even this infamous tradition continues in the church, and even after more than two centuries, a big news broke.
Of course he knew that Alexander VI should have other ideas, but Alexander didn't want to involve Estrez.
"My daughter is only 3 years old," Alexander, who wanted to be gentle, refused to see the Pope still looking forward, and he had to helplessly ask, "So what do you want to say?"
"Let Estelles and Juan get engaged," the pope suddenly said enthusiastically, seeing Alexander a little puzzled, and he immediately explained, "I mean Giovanni's son Juan, he is now Gandy. Duke Noir, I want him to marry his cousin should not insult Estrel. "
Looking at the pope's slightly excited face, Alexander wanted to spit up.
Obviously, this cunning old man has already started to run his wishful thinking, let Juan marry Estrez, so if Estrez does not have the opportunity to inherit the Castile throne in the future, then the Borgia family There is an opportunity to inherit Pizza, and if Barendi, who is his wife, has no children, this is not impossible. After all, accidents in this era of dystocia and premature death or even adulthood threaten the noble royal family at any time, so assume Barendi has no children, so as the first child of Alexandria, while having a prominent position and strong enough strength, Estelles is likely to become his heir to the throne.
This seems a bit far away, but Alexander believes that the Pope might think more. Perhaps he has now started coveting Naples and Sicily, and even Aragon. After all, if God really shows spirit, and Ruosha has no offspring, As the children of Alexandria, they may not have the opportunity to inherit their aunt ’s throne.
These assumptions, which now seem to be too unreliable, may not become reality in the future. This can be known as long as Maximian tries to build a powerful empire through marriage. There is still evidence.
"Your Majesty, it is too early to say that," some students kneeled slowly in front of the pope on one knee. He took the pope's lean hands on his chest and whispered to him in a voice that only two people could hear. "If one day I can really wear a crown, I will definitely give Estrez the best gift because she is my beloved daughter and my angel, and by that time if Juan can give her happiness I do n’t Would object. "
Alexander VI was slightly disappointed. Although it was not a rejection, it was obviously not a pleasant delay, but he immediately thought that Alexander ’s love for Estrez was indeed as strong as he said, and the Pope paid attention. It was Alexander who didn't seem to want Estrez to be his bargaining chip. Although he didn't know how to think this way, the Pope could clearly feel that he did think so.
"It's still a bit early, but who knows the future, doesn't it?" The pope ended the topic sensibly, and at the same time, his eyes saw through the window that he had walked across the stone bridge and walked towards the Rose Corner Palace Ferdinand "Let ’s go see the king, maybe everything will be clear soon."
Alexander accompanied the Pope outwards, looking at Pope Ricket ’s back, he suddenly felt that he might have underestimated Alexander VI ’s ambition for ambition, even at this time, even if it was only a vague possibility in the future, he all Immediately reach out and grab my hand, can such a Alexander VI really be willing to cooperate with himself?
Perhaps some more reliable preparations should be made, Alexander secretly told himself.
The entire dinner process was boring, and even a messenger who was with him was unable to enliven the atmosphere of the dinner, and the people around Ferdinand later simply found excuses to say goodbye.
When there were only three people left in the hall, Ferdinand simply used a toast to imply that the dinner was over. He hurriedly drank a sip of wine as the final gift, and then he could not wait to invite the pope to the next room to chat alone. .
Although seeing Alexander inadvertently smile, Ferdinand did not mean to invite him. In Ferdinand's view, perhaps Alexander had a reason to break the agreement between him and the Pope, but Alexander VI should not be so easy He was persuaded that after all, the Pope's situation is very bad, which gave Ferdinand enough confidence to persuade the now-dead Pope.
But what surprised Ferdinand was that when he finally expressed his intentions, Alexander VI was very stubborn to request that his son-in-law must be involved. For this reason, he even threatened that if he could not promise his condition, then he It is about to leave Barialido, or even Castilla.
"There are many places to go, Portugal or France, I think they would still like to see me visit them," even though he clearly saw Ferdinand's face with contempt because of his words, Alexander VI was still stubborn Adhering to his own conditions, as an excellent and qualified diplomat, he is very sure that his conditions will eventually be accepted "or go to Andalusia."
Ferdinand's expression finally changed. He knew that the pope's threat was not impossible. Maybe Portugal and France did not necessarily welcome the exiled pope, but the Andalusian rebels would never let go of such a good opportunity. .
And even in Portugal or France in today's situation, it would probably be very happy to see the pope leaning towards them, at least this is an unexpected joy for Manuel.
Alexander was invited into the room, looking at Ferdinand's slightly gloomy face. He didn't hide the smile like a pope's conspiracy.
Everything is already obvious, and by this time any excuse for concealment is no longer necessary, so the first sentence after Alexander sat down was: "Your Majesty, you should not worry about the princess's mental condition or Prince Philip's opposition, We all know what he is doing today, and it can even be said that the power to obstruct you is not in Bariaridode, but in Andalusia. "
Ferdinand's originally gloomy face slowly changed. His two hands held their thumbs together and circumvented dexterously. Then, after gazing at the pope sitting on the side, he slowly asked: "Duke, who are you talking about?"
"You know, Gonzalo Cordova."
Alexander said the name cleanly, and he saw Ferdinand's face change, which surprised him slightly. Alexander did not expect that Gonzalo's threat in Ferdinand would be greater than he thought. Now think about Gonzalo's ending after Isabella's death, he admired the person in front.
At least even Gonzalo was deeply distraught, but Ferdinand did not use too fierce means against him. In addition to using various methods to force him to retire from home, Gonzalo still had a horrible end. Compared to the threat he might pose, Ferdinand can already be considered generous.
It's just that this time Alexander didn't want this pair of princes to have a justifiable result, because that didn't meet his needs.
"Don't you think that Gonzalo has been procrastinating in the south for too long," Alexander noticed that Ferdinand looked at him with puzzled eyes. Obviously his direct provocation aroused the suspicion of the other party, so He just came up with a very good reason. "Gonzalo invaded my large sugar cane plantation in Crete while fighting in Crete. This is intolerable for me. I think you know that sugar can How much wealth it brings, there are too many things he can do with the money. This is a loss of money for me and a huge threat to you. "
Ferdinand's two thumbs, which have been turning, stopped ~ EbookFREE.me ~ He had to admit that Alexander was indeed right, one with great reputation, commanding a powerful army, and a huge source of money He knows exactly what the Castilian nobility means, and even nowadays Don Bavi and Gonzalo in Andalusia are insignificant compared.
More importantly, he is Isabella's favorite.
This gives him an unparalleled appeal in the Kingdom of Castile. Even if he really changes, he will soon be regarded as the will of the Queen, which is more threatening to Ferdinand than Philip, who is now like a dead man, is much bigger.
"So what do you think should be done?" Ferdinand finally asked, although he felt that Alexander might not have any solution.
"This is your business, isn't it, but I think I can help you."
Alexander smiled, and he had been waiting for this opportunity.
Now, this opportunity is in sight, he told himself that he must seize it firmly.
