Alexander stood in front of Sophia, who was leaning against the bed, maybe doing a good dream of eating something good. Sophia's mouth twitched slightly, and a slight "grunt" sounded in her throat, as if it were a guard Cat eating.
The sleeping girl had very little sleep, and the whole body was spread on the bed casually. Two arms were placed loosely on both sides of the body. Because it was too majestic, even the slightly sunken chest because of lying down still looked bulging. .
Sophia's waist was covered with a blanket, and her two beautiful long legs were hidden under the blanket, but from the bulging shape, Alexander could still guess the kind of irritating scene.
Looking at the girl with her head tilted to the side and her head and face buried in the thick lacquered black hair curls, Alexander smiled and bent slightly and pecked gently on her face.
Seemingly feeling something, Sophia's head swayed, and at the same time, she crossed her arm and pressed it against her chest. The little waves that brought up her pajamas made Alexander almost unreasonable.
"When will you grow up, my little wife." Alexander shook his head helplessly, then straightened to look at the short crossbow on the table beside the bed.
Alexander had always paid attention to the origin of the short crossbow, but he was disappointed that except Kunto, he had never seen anyone use such a weapon, even if Krian did not see him use it.
Alexander took the short crossbow and watched it carefully. A long time ago, he knew that this short crossbow was not only well-made, but even fine in this era. In addition to being extremely strong, a small skein on the crossbow also played an important role. Allows users to wind quickly in a way that is much less laborious than usual. At the same time, a small buckle sticking out on the crossbow can even buckle several crossbow arrows directly on it without considering concealment. This will not only save a lot of time, but also allow a skilled archer to be short. The great power of the short crossbow can be exerted within a time, even in close combat.
Alexander had known the power of this short crossbow for a long time, and had relied on it more than once to get rid of danger. Even if it was given to Sophia, this short crossbow still helped them through many difficulties.
But it is not the power that it shows that makes Alexander really pay attention to this weapon, but the secret behind it.
The experiences since leaving Sicily made Alexander seem to forget those things, but in fact he did n’t forget one day, especially after he found a portrait of him wearing a monk robe from the inexplicable attacker on the way to San Niro. , He knew that the monastery of Saint Seballon might eventually be dug out.
Qiao Modi Luo, this name sounds so unfamiliar, and not many people know it, but Alexander has to admit that he can have everything now because of this name.
Qiao Modi Luo has been locked in the dungeon by the monastery because of his madness, and Alexander had been thinking about what happened that night when Kunto went to San Sebaron to meet Qiao Ling.
Obviously Kunto and the Abbey decided to let him replace Qiao Ling. It was very risky to deceive everyone. Once they were discovered, it would be unimaginable what kind of back fruit they would bring, but they still did it, so this shows that they are very It's clear that if you let others know that Qiao Modillo has become a lunatic, it may be more troublesome, so they would rather find someone to impersonate and cover up this matter.
Because of this, Alexander didn't worry about his identity being revealed, because there must be someone more afraid of this being revealed.
What really made Alexander care about was who secretly calculated Kunto.
Even at the last moment, Kunto still let him go to Alfonso, who was the priest of Palermo at the time, which shows that Kunto trusted him, and the sentence that Alexander did not bring for him, obviously it was this The key to everything.
Perhaps because he didn't tell Alfonso the sentence containing a major secret, things did not change in the future, but continued to develop as some people imagined.
Qiao Modi is the illegitimate child of George Di Anne, the sister of the Earl of Modillo, and the former King Enrique of Castile. This alone is enough to make many people lose their heads!
The ambition of Count Modillo makes Alexander sometimes feel that this life is a bit pity in this era, but think about it and think that only this era will produce such ambitions.
The final unification of Spain, Ottoman ’s aggression against Europe for nearly two centuries, the emergence of the upcoming Habsburg dynasty of the Holy Roman Empire, and the rise of the Principality of Moscow in the far east of Europe, the first The Tsar will be born in a few decades.
And on the other side of the more distant ocean, a brand new, mysterious veil of the new world that has just been vaguely peeped out has lifted that soft corner.
All this was conceived before this era, and then emerged in this era. With such a thought, Alexander suddenly felt that Modillo's ambitions were not only absurd, but even became possible.
Only now, Alexander vaguely felt that when Modillo tried to realize his ambitions step by step, there seemed to be some people staring at him closely, and from the beginning, the secret about Joel Modillo seemed to have been People found.
And what Alexander cares about is that in addition to who discovered the secret, there is one more worry about whether his true identity has been discovered.
Sophia gurgled in her throat unconsciously again, looking at the girl who had twisted her body a few times to make herself more comfortable lying. Alexander gently bent over and kissed her warm and soft lips before reaching for the blanket Pulled upwards to cover her small belly that had been exposed by twisting, and then quietly exited the room.
In the shadow of a depression in the corridor, a guard heard the sound and leaned out slightly, and after seeing Alexander, he quietly retracted himself again.
Seeing the shadow that almost merged with the surrounding darkness, Alexander nodded in satisfaction. Since the assassination of Joanna, Nashan ordered the man to search the entire Palace of Marino. In the Bohemian After almost tossing and tearing down the entire palace, they were surprised to find two secret passages in the Marino Palace.
The suspicion that the priest and mask person of Cardinal Monteiro appeared in the secret road in the past has become meaningless. With the appearance of these secret passages, it becomes meaningless. Although the appearance of the priest is too coincidental, it is obvious that Marino The unreliable hole in the palace gave the priest a good excuse.
So when Alexander knew all of this, the only thing he could do was to re-examine the whole palace, especially in some places that were often overlooked, and to confirm whether the secret passage was still hidden. He changed it. The patrol method of the palace guard.
In addition to the normal patrol, Alexander specially arranged several whistle. This kind of alert method that no one has thought of so far surprised Nashan. However, after several attempts to invade the Palace of Marino, he was continuously hidden. After discovering that the sirens were issued quickly, Nashan also had to admit that this method was indeed much safer.
It's just that Alexander knew that today's whistle is only a little prototype, and there is still a big gap away from the kind that can really find the enemy to play a role at a critical moment.
"take it easy."
Alexander thought about it in his heart, but he knew that some things could take their time, and some were obviously not.
A figure appeared in front, seeing Nashan coming out of Joanna's room, Alexander slowly walked over.
Nashan touched his cocked beard. He first looked at Sophia's room behind him, and then shook the bottle in his hand: "Come and have a drink with me."
Alexander said nothing but followed the stairs behind Nashan.
Standing in the hall, Nashan lifted the bottle and poured it directly into his mouth, looking up to look around.
"Do you know how many underpasses were found," Nashan asked, but he obviously didn't want to hear the answer, so he went on with his own words. "A total of four, only four underpasses were found in this house. Exit, and there is one that is too old for anyone to guess when it was built, maybe older than this house. Do you think this place is suitable for Sophia to continue? "
Alexander listened silently. He knew that Nashan had never stopped thinking of taking his daughter away, even if he had been trying to help him as much as possible, but this did not mean that the gypsy would be willing to leave Sophia beside him.
"This is really an unpleasant city, and we have stayed here for too long, know that I haven't been in a place for so long, even in the Bohemian palace, Whenever possible, I always leave for a while, and if I stay in a place for too long, I feel like I am going to be moldy. "
Nashan's complaint made Alexander a little helpless, but he could understand the meaning of the gypsy words.
Since ancient times, the Gypsies have spent their lives in non-stop migration, and even migration has become a way to prove their lives, even after centuries, this custom will not change, they are like their mystery Like the ancient ancestors, they never migrated to the future where they did n’t know until they disappeared out of sight.
Will Sophia be a traveler in her life? Alexander's thought flashed through his mind, and he was immediately suppressed by this unpleasant idea.
"I need your help." Alexander said softly.
"What are you going to do?" Nashan asked first, and then he started to curl up the tip of his lips with his fingers. "Why don't we make a deal, I'll help you do something, and you promise me to let I took Sophia away. "
"Don't think!" Without any hesitation, Alexander directly rejected Nashan's temptation. "Sophia is my wife."
"If I leave you all the Bohemian cavalry," Nashan suddenly asked, "I have left long enough to go back to the queen, and I think the queen upstairs no longer needs me." ,
Nashan said, glancing upstairs.
The woman was terrified this time. She does n’t believe anyone now. It seems that love is not as important as life after all, so you do n’t have to worry about anyone thinking about her anymore. , Maybe the woman did n’t even want to see her for a long time. "
Nashan's words made Alexander frown. He didn't care about the Bohemians proposed by Nashan. In fact, although the Bohemian cavalry did bring him enough help time and time again, he was very It is clear that with his current ability it is impossible to support so many Bohemians.
In addition to those Bohemians who have acquired land in Agri, the Bohemian cavalry recruited by Nashan is actually a group of mercenaries, and these mercenaries will not only waste a lot of employers ’money, but more importantly They are always just "employees".
Never expect "employees" to treat the employer's business as their own. This is why Alexander decided from the outset that he would rather distribute the land to those Bohemians who had originally obtained it, rather than spend money on hiring them.
The Aggris were his soldiers, the original Bohemians were his soldiers, and the cavalry brought by Nashan, even if they were brave and proficient, did not belong to him.
"Work for me, I will pay you," Alexander said. "But Sophia can't be in these conditions."
Nashan silently watched Alexander ponder for a while, then sipped his drink indifferently: "Well, look at the money and talk about what you want to do."
"Help me kill someone." Alexander slightly lowered his voice, a firm flash in his eyes, watching Nashan waiting for his answer.
"Oh, you're going to kill someone," the Gypsies looked at Alexander with a little curiosity. Although he had killed people before because of Alexander ~ EbookFREE.me ~, he had killed himself by himself, but somehow, the Gypsies I felt that when I said this, Alexander's look seemed very different from before. "Tell me who is so unlucky, and rest assured that I will not refuse you for Sophia."
Before looking at it, I said that it was for the sake of money, and then I said that for the daughter's gypsy, Alexander felt a little speechless.
"Accurately speaking, I don't want this person to die," Alexander said slowly. "And I don't think you can kill this person. All I want is that everyone thinks this person is in danger, and I I do n’t want you to be in any danger. After all, the other party is too important to kill casually. I do n’t want Sophia to lose her father. "
"Oh, I really want to thank you for your concern." Nashan said angrily, and then turned his head to drink. "Tell me who he is."
Alexander leaned forward slightly, and when Nashan frowned, almost trying to push him away, he gently said a name in the gypsy ear.
"What ?!" Nashan's eyes suddenly burst out in surprise, and then he quickly reached out and covered his mouth. His head dangled to see if there was really no one around, then he put his hand down and grumbled inconceivably. That's right? Definitely that person? "
