The Queen ’s silent prayer finally ended after a long day, which was a very worthy celebration for the Bariaridod.
A lot of things happened during this time. The arrival of the Pope, all the bad news of the Huanna and his wife, and the uneasiness caused by the Queen ’s inability to attend politics.
Now everything seems to be alright, the Castilians can see their noble and majestic queen again, which makes many people happy and unavoidable.
Ferdinand did not live well in these days, he could feel the obvious hostility from all directions, the Castilians had an instinctive resistance to Ferdinand sitting alone on the throne, even though he was the queen ’s husband , But also the father of the future queen, but this conflict is still so strong and obvious.
Among them, of course, there are the grudges between Castile and Aragon for many years, but more is still the people's instinctive distrust of an outsider.
Alexander also felt this distrust deeply, which gave him a new understanding of the challenges and dilemmas he might face in the future.
Uliu has left Barrialdod, he will first join Valencia and join Thiego, and then take a boat to the French port of Agde in the Mediterranean.
When Alexander planned this route for him, he thought of passing him through Portugal, so that he could see the current situation in Lisbon, but the news sent by Tiego made him dispel this idea.
Because there was a little accident in Montpellier in France, Alexander would feel that Ulliu might be better to go directly to France.
Argod is very close to Montpellier, and it takes only three to five days to survive from Valencia to land in France, and then reach its destination as soon as possible.
Sending Uliu to France was not a whim for Alexandria. During this time, he gradually realized that although the intelligence network established by Thiego had indeed obtained a lot of useful information, but because of Iberia ’s special Environment, at least Uliu can only play a spy here, which is obviously overkill for Uliu.
But the various changes that have occurred in France over the past few months require someone to preside over the big picture for him.
Although France does not yet have a good reputation as a "filial son of God", it is still not comparable to Iberia, so Uliu is more able to show his strength there, instead of only asking about the hue to the cook or maid. News.
The failure in Italy has caused a lot of turmoil in France. France, which has been worsened by the Ladia gold coin run, is now in a panic and chaos, and in Montpellier there has been a lot of people. The stunned thing, even when Alexander heard the news, he was not only a bit dumbfounded, but it was even harder to accept Louis XII when he wanted to come.
The Montpelliers announced that they had left the French king.
When he heard the news, Alexander quickly flashed the tricolor flag, the guillotine, the revolutionary slogan and more shadows that made him almost mistaken for the disorder of time.
Although these messy things just flashed by, Alexander didn't think it was thinking wildly, after all, it was France, after all, they were French, so it is not uncommon for anything to happen.
This made Alexander feel that France is a good place for Uliou to show his strength. As long as you think about it, France and Ottoman will be able to get close to each other in a few years. Now that a Moorish life in France is no worse, it will not be worse than Iberia is even worse.
Isabella ’s observance ceremony was held on the first day of August. The queen sat far from the throne. All the ministers bowed to the queen, and Ferdinand stood beside Isabella on her side. It was in such a hot season that the Queen and his wife wore gorgeous and thick dresses to show their grandness, and Ferdinand held a huge scepter almost the same height as him.
This picture seems to fully reflect the majesty of the Queen ’s husband and wife, but also highlights Ferdinand ’s love for his wife. Enlightened ".
Isabella silently looked at the ministers in front of her. Her eyes sometimes slightly set aside her husband who stood aside. Although the whole ceremony was quite grand, it was also very concise, but even so, she still could not bear the body. 'S weak and sharp gasps.
Her appearance fell into the eyes of many people and shocked them secretly. Although there are not many people who know the truth about the Queen ’s silent prayer, this does not mean that there is no guesswork. In addition to the ordinary people, some of the nobles are already secretly Discussing what happened in the court, but no one dared to stand up and question.
Now looking at the Queen's unoptimistic appearance, the previous speculations seem to have been proved, which made the ministers feel a little nervous. They do not know how the Queen's physical condition is now, which makes them even more uneasy.
So when Isabella signaled to leave a few close ministers, although the nobles were desperately retreating, but when they went outside, people could not bear to start whispering again.
"It seems that they are all worried about my body," Isabella didn't stand up, although this is not her daily office, but after the servants were deported, there were only a few people in the huge palace. "I don't Know how many of those people want to see me ca n’t afford to be sick. "
"Your Majesty, everyone loves you and is loyal to you," a minister said respectfully. "What you have done for Castile is enough for the most iron-hearted people to show their loyalty, otherwise Be punished by God. "
"You are too talkative. I haven't been arrogant enough to think that I can get pious allegiance like His Majesty the Pope," Isabella said, looking at her husband as if she wanted to get approval from him. Nan nodded slightly, and she continued, "So how do you arrange my meeting with the Pope?"
"Your Majesty, you can go directly to the Rose Horn Palace, which is large enough and more convenient," said Don Marquesbaine. As one of the people who knows the Queen ’s health best, the treasurer is worried about being too heavy. The ritual may be unbearable for the queen. Although the doctor has repeatedly assured him that the queen has recovered after bleeding and fumigation, just look at her face that is still difficult to hide even after makeup, you can know that things are not so Optimistic "You can rest in the palace in advance, and only need to come out to meet with the pope. Before or after this, we will do it entirely. I believe the pope cares more about seeing it."
"What about Juana?"
Isabella's sudden inquiries made everyone stunned, and some even looked at Ferdinand involuntarily, and saw the expressionless expression of the king. People didn't realize that until then, the queen met with the pope This matter is so concerned, there may be other intentions.
"Is she crazy ?!"
When he finally returned to his living room, even though the thick door had been closed, the roar from the inside could still be heard faintly. If it was n’t for the guards standing far away, the king did n’t know who The complaint may have spread throughout the court.
"Your Majesty, you have to control your emotions," while the secretary of the servant and helped Ferdinand take off his cumbersome dress while quietly dissuading him, "Sing if you want to be angry, and it is better to use Catalan In Ronian, that way someone hears and does n’t necessarily know what you ’re talking about. "
"Your sleek tongue will one day kill you," Ferdinand glared fiercely at his followers. Although he knew he was admonishing himself, this kind of cynicism still made him unhappy. "But don't you think she is really Is she crazy, does n’t she know what Juana looks like now, but she actually wants Juana to see the pope. "
"Isn't this what you want to see," the entourage asked a little puzzled, "Please forgive my bluntness, if the princess behaves abnormally in front of the pope, it's only good for you, isn't it why you object What about the Queen ’s decision? "
"Yes, this does seem to be good for me, but have you thought about it? If Juana really lost her gaze in front of the Pope, wouldn't she ask the Pope to hold an exorcism ceremony for Juana?"
Ferdinand circled angrily in the room. He stopped and pointed to his followers: "If you were Alexander VI, what would you do, wouldn't you say that as an agent of Christ in the world, you can't complete such a ceremony, Or is it a failure after exorcism? "
Someone thought for a moment from a stunned voice, and finally pouted: "Of course not, that would make me very embarrassing, I can only say that I succeeded, and then ..."
"Then Juana can execute the regency rightfully. At that time, I can't control her, at least I have no reason to directly affect her."
After Ferdinand finished walking back and forth, he felt Isabella's strong distrust of him, which made him irritated but helpless. Their relationship has long been no longer close, or even They gave birth to many children, but in fact they are more allies than couples, and now Isabella is clearly thinking more about the future of her Castilian, which also makes Ferdinand more Worried that she might make more decisions against him in order to curb his ambitions.
"Your Majesty's body," he stopped after seeing the sentence, seeing Ferdinand's face was gloomy, but he continued without saying "to prevent her Majesty's illness this time, but her body is obviously not as good In the past, this was not a good sign, so if you want to do something, you must do it as soon as possible. "
"Of course I know," Ferdinand glanced at his followers in exasperation. He sometimes felt that this person was really annoying, and always said something that would cause him to be unhappy. Gonzalo, if you see the letter he wrote to me, you should know to what extent that person is arrogant. "
Who hasn't succeeded this time, he knows clearly when he can freely tease the stupid things the king has done, but when he should shut his mouth and pretend to be deaf.
Gonzalo Cordova is such a taboo that cannot be touched. The arrogance and rudeness of that man in front of Ferdinand made the king hate the most, but helpless, relying on Isabella ’s favor, Gonzalo Not only in the letter, he even confronted Ferdinand many times in the face, which has already become a heart disease in the king's heart for a long time.
What made Ferdinand more concerned was that Gonzalo was the leader of the stubborn Castilians. He sometimes guessed that this person might become a stumbling block to the unification of the two countries in the future.
"All the letters from the Governor of Sicily have been sorted out for you," the entourage suddenly changed the subject, and when he saw the king ’s eyes, he smiled. "There is something in it that you might want to see, I mean Some of them are about that Gonzalo. "
Ferdinand responded thoughtfully. He knew that the entourage should have discovered something, or that he could make something if needed, but even if there was evidence to deal with that Gonzalo, it should be. How can it be used?
"Maybe that the Duke of Rome Theseia can help us." The entourage suggested, seeing the king's contemplative look, the entourage retreated to the side and waited patiently.
Ferdinand pondered. Although Alexander had previously revealed his intention to help him, Ferdinand also had his own concerns.
As a husband and wife, Ferdinand is more familiar with Isabella than others. He knows that Isabella ’s favor of Gonzalo is not only because of his loyalty, but also that Isabella needs someone to contain him. .
Isabella handed her army to Gonzalo and also gave him the responsibility to defend her heir.
Isabella didn't want to see Castile's crown fall under the hands of an outsider. She could tolerate that her descendants had Austrian origin, because then the kingdom of Castilla still exists.
But she would not allow a descendant of the Portuguese or English royal family to wear her crown.
She also can't tolerate Ferdinand's control of Juana, which is why she really supports Gonzalo.
Gonzalo, this has become Ferdinand's biggest obstacle to eradicate him and Castella's supreme power.
"Go send a letter to the Duke and tell him that I am not interested in collecting taxes from the sugar cane plantation in Crete, but I can help him recapture what belongs to him."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The attendant immediately bowed and left, looking at his back, Ferdinand pondered slightly, picked up the bell on the table and shook it a few times.
A maid came out of a secret door.
"Go and ask the Queen's servants. When your majesty has time, I hope to visit her."
The maid nodded silently and left.
When there was only Ferdinand in the room, he sat down on the chair, his fingers slowly tapping on the tabletop, and he got angry.
In the Rosary Palace, Alexander VI listened quietly to his new secretary's report about Queen Isabella's upcoming visit to the Pope.
Nomelo ’s departure was a great loss for Alexander VI, although when he heard that he decided to stay in Rome, he knew that Nomelo had decided to leave himself, but Alexander VI still felt that Nomelo was the best His satisfied men.
When it was heard that Isabella would come to the Rosary Palace, Alexander VI raised his hand to stop the entourage.
"Is the queen coming here?"
"Your Majesty of course," the secretary said with some excitement. Since leaving the Vatican, they have not enjoyed this glory for a long time. Even the honorable status in Rome seems to have been a distant dream. Now they seem to have finally returned. The previous glory "Her Majesty will meet with Princess Juana, and at the same time Your Majesty asks you to be able to preside over her confession."
The secretary was still nagging excitedly about the next steps. He didn't notice Alexander VI's frowning at all until he finally realized that something seemed strange, his voice became smaller and smaller and finally stopped.
"It would be nice if Nomelo was there," Alexander VI's words instantly made the secretary blush. He didn't know which point he dissatisfied with the Pope, which made him even more uneasy, but Alexander VI didn't seem to notice his emotions. The Pope first waved his hand at random to ask the secretary to retreat, and then called him "Go and invite the Duke and tell him that I have something important to discuss with him."
When the Pope lamented that there was no worthy person around him, Alexander was also worried about facing the same trouble.
Uliu ’s departure caused him much more trouble than he thought. Although the Balkans were brave, he obviously did n’t need them to fight and kill. For a time, Alexander felt a little helpless.
It was at this time that a visit by an uninvited guest made Alexander seem to see a glimmer of light.
This is not the first time Thomas Tongomada has been a guest. The Queen ’s private priest is now in power. At the same time that the religious tribunal ’s business is booming, the priest brandishing the butcher ’s knife for Isabella has also become a card. One of the most terrible characters in Styria ~ EbookFREE.me ~ So when Thomas Tongomad appeared outside of Alexander ’s residence, many people were trembling because they recognized him, they looked at this in horror The terrible priest walked off the carriage and stood in front of the house.
This made everyone sigh secretly for the sad fate of this family.
"Duke, I hope my visit does not make you inconvenient," said Thomas Tongomad, smiling while looking at Alexander, who was wiping his forehead with a towel and a sword, and no one would think of such a terrible smile. It seemed exceptionally affable, but no one would believe that there was even a little compassion and tolerance behind his kind smile. "But I was introduced by a friend here."
"Who is this friend you said?" Alexander asked quietly.
Thomas Tongomad looked at Alexander with a chuckle, but his smile seemed so weird and uncomfortable: "It is a distinguished adult we all know, Earl Modillo of Naples."
