Vol 3 Chapter 117: Sophia ...

There are two letters in succession, although the letter of the person is different at different times, but they are talking about the same thing, and it seems to be a good negotiation. Although all the differences are worded, the attitude of the two people is the same. Both hope that Alexander can Engage with Valentina Della Rovere.
Alexander did not believe that this was just a coincidence. Although he discovered that Luo Sha seemed to have a great influence on him at home so quickly, it was quite unexpected, but as long as he thought about the establishment of a "free trade zone", he was quite surprised. It was left to Ruosha to do it, and the slightly smarter people could also see the role that Ruosha's attitude played in front of him.
Obviously, the Rovere family has great hopes for this family matter, but from the letter, no matter whether it is Earl or Russa, the attention of this family matter is no less than that of the Rovere family.
In order to have an ally to contain Frederick, the earl just needed this family matter, but Alexander never thought that things were going around. In the end, it was himself who actually needed this family matter.
As Rusha said, in order to build strong confidence in the free trade zone in the minds of many regional powers, it is necessary to have several influential entrants, and what else is there like Venice in Genoa Joining the place can better explain everything.
Venice may not have a chance for now, and the Genoese have done business with themselves from the beginning. The large amount of food is enough for both parties to establish a foundation of mutual trust, not to mention that there is a family matter that can be used for this trust. Bonus, but if even Genoa, who can talk about marriage, does not join this "free trade zone", how can it convince others to believe in themselves?
And if you want to bring in this giant beast of Genoa, you must first consider the marriage with Barendi!
So the result is that it is Alexander himself who is the most opposed to this marriage in the end.
Alexander felt a bit ironic. He was like a fisherman who carefully woven a large net that he couldn't get rid of, but the fish that was finally caught in it was himself.
Constantine left contentedly, although he did not get any reply, or Alexander didn't even bother him after reading the letter, but Constantine could feel that he was under great pressure from Alexander's unhappy expression.
Regarding the free trade zone, even Constantine, who did n’t take it from the beginning and did n’t even understand it, gradually realized that it was not simple, and it was precisely because of the discovery of the wonders that it was, so the Luo Weilei family ’s Attitudes have also begun to change.
Even if he does not want to admit it, Constantine is actually very proud of having such a sister as Barenti.
Except for Lucrezia, who is almost like the darling of the whole Rome, Barendi has not attracted the attention of all the noble ladies in Rome, and even some people in the family say that if they cannot rely on the archbishop ’s Pampered with a large dowry, Balendi's final result is to spend a lifetime in the monastery.
But Constantine knew how stupid this kind of statement was. Whenever he saw Barenti sitting behind the table and carefully looked at the running accounts and the contracts, Constantine was proud of having such a smart sister. Although Uncle Lafour never admits that Barenti is clever, even when he thought that even the cousin who was his father ’s right-hand man could n’t consider Barondi ’s advice on family business from time to time, Constantine admired himself. Ordinary, but has a sister who is smarter than a man.
So in Constantine's mind, he and his father thought that Alexander was not worthy of Barendi.
What makes their father and son feel strange is that it is precisely Barendi himself who is the party to this marriage, but it seems that he does not care about this matter at all, or that he is not only completely left to their father to decide, even to take the initiative Come forward and want to make this marriage happen smoothly.
This made Constantine a little unhappy. How could an upstart worthy of his smart sister, if not related to the archbishop's competition for the cardinal throne, he even wanted to say a few words of opposition in front of his father.
But now it seems that this Gumbre is not so useless, at least he looks less like an upstart than when he first saw him.
No one knows what the free trade zone will look like in the future. Constantine is not so concerned, but since Uncle Lafour began to tirelessly search for the previous transaction accounts with Barenti, and even sent someone to turn from Genoa. As a comparison, various account books of previous years that came out for many years can be seen. They attach great importance to this Gombré from the trade area, which makes Constantine also start to value this person.
Ruosha's letter can be guessed in the letter from Ruosha. Obviously, since the Modillo family attaches great importance to the free trade zone they proposed, then this marriage seems not to be a problem.
Balendi should be satisfied, Constantine flashed the thought in his heart, and then immediately shook his head disapprovingly.
How could she think that Barendi was willing to accept this marriage because she was satisfied with the marriage partner? Isn't it just because she hopes to help her father as much as possible?
Constantine thought so and left San Marino Palace.
He did n’t really care if the Bohemian girl would have a big quarrel with Alexander because of this. Although he had heard of the girl ’s fierce style long ago, it had nothing to do with him. He just had to go home and report to his father. Everything will be fine.
Sophia didn't jump like thunder as Constantin conjectured. She always ate snacks intently beside Alexander, as if she would run away if she was not careful.
Sophia ’s quietness made Alexander a little bit hairy. According to previous experience, she should wait for the guests to walk away and do everything she can to know what the letter is written, especially if you think about the letter, it must be Regardless of whether she can understand it, she has to read the letter by herself to be relieved.
But now Sophia was quiet and strange, which suddenly made Alexander miss the "good days" that she wore with her jingling armor and waved her sword in a hurry.
Alexander opened her mouth just to say something, and Sophia, who was eating snacks, suddenly stopped. She touched her and kissed on Alexander's cheek very softly. After leaving a slightly greasy lip mark on his face, She smiled silently, and then walked upstairs to her room with the remaining snacks.
This is really abnormal!
Alexander finally determined his thoughts, but when he was about to stand up and catch up, he saw Nashan walking slowly.
"Boy, let's talk like two men." Na Shan's smile was rare, and then he stretched out his powerful arm and grabbed Alexander's shoulder. "Come, let's go to the garden to have a good chat, There are fewer people there. "
The number of people is small and convenient. Alexander later only remembered these two sentences. As for the rest of the words, as Nashan flew at him in the garden with a series of dazzling heavy punches, he burst into pain. I was forgotten.
Lying on the ground, Alexander applied a piece of glacial stone that Nashan gave him to his eyes. He felt his eyes were hot. In fact, except for the eyes and faces, they were hot and hot, so he did n’t. Reject the goodwill of the gypsies.
"Your boy is quite capable of being beaten," Nashan also sat next to him with a little gasp, which was mainly tired. "Listen, Sophia is very upset, you have to coax her."
"I know, but I don't know how to coax her," Alexander said, his head tilted up, and the tickle in his nose was still bleeding. "I didn't expect this to happen, and no one should disturb our lives."
"You should have thought of this result a long time ago," Nashan pushed Alexander a bit angrily. "Listen to me, you are not feeling well like this, so just obey me and let me take Sophia away, Then you just get married to the old lady of the Rowley family. Is n’t it good for everyone to be satisfied? "
"What about Sophia, will she be satisfied?" Alexander glanced sideways at Nashan, seeing the gypsy's complexion, and he continued, "And do you think I will be satisfied, I said to Sophia No one can separate us, neither the Earl, the Archbishop, nor you. "
Nashan tilted his head and looked at Alexander. He had a urge to teach the again, but when he saw the flash of the glass window in a room on the second floor, he let go of it again. Raised hands.
"Don't be too greedy, I can't let Sophia follow you in such a confused way," Nashan said fiercely. "She can be a princess for everyone when she arrives at the Bohemian palace, and if she can, the queen can even Finding a good marriage for her, but what results can you follow, or do you want to learn from your old man? Do n’t think I do n’t know what Rovere is. "
"He's not my father-in-law," Alexander's neck was sour when he lifted his head, so he tried to sit up slightly, and then he put the stone on another face and continued to apply it to his eyes. "I admit that I really need the help of the Rovere family. This is not the same thing as marriage. "
Nashan glanced at Alexandria with contempt, then stood up and shook his injured hand: "Whatever you say, but your time is running out, I want to wait for you to get engaged to that Miss Rovere, we Almost going back to Prague ’s court. "
Alexander looked at Nashan coldly. He suddenly felt quite disgusted with the gypsy.
If you think about who the Gypsy who said you would n’t hate you, he would n’t stab him in the back, and he felt that the person who said it must not know Nashan.
However, Ruosha's letter reminded him. After calming down, he returned to the room to open the map and looked at some of the places marked on it. Alexander's eyebrows slightly wrinkled, and then it was sent out because it pulled the pain Whisper.
A cold handkerchief was handed over from the side. Alexander turned his head and saw Sophia, whose fingers were red with cold water, was standing beside her with a wet handkerchief.
Alexander let Sophia press her scarf on his battered eyes, and then her lips touched her cold skin, and she could not help but kiss gently.
Sophia pressed her body against Alexander's back, cheeks side by side with him, looking at the map on the table.
Taranto, Naples, and Palermo and Messina in Sicily, an area that has gradually become a triangle is beginning to take shape. Although this has only been the beginning so far, as Rusha said, as long as those businessmen Not too stupid, they should understand that in the face of the decline of the Mediterranean, any single force can no longer compete.
Just to take advantage of this time to quickly build a trustworthy trade union, the support from Genoa is indeed indispensable.
Sophia held out her finger and could n’t hold it on the map. Alexander saw that she had knocked on a place in the south of Sicily. He knew that it was Alzentara they met, and then her finger stopped to the north. It was Palermo, and when her hand crossed the strait, Alexander thought of the time when they separated, and then Naples, who was unexpectedly reunited, passed the road north of the battle together, and when her hand stayed in Rome, Sophia side His ear gently clasped his earlobe, and then the other hand gently pulled his head and he looked at the map.
Sophia's hand finally stayed in Genoa!
"Sophia."
Alexander gently called out her name and saw a flash of tears seem to flash in Sophia's eyes. Alexander suddenly shook her head!
He swept the map off the table and strode toward the corner, where there was a large cabinet with a few sacks of money and two muskets with fine workmanship.
Alexander hurriedly took out his money bag and musket, and said to Sophia while packing up: "Fortunately, we are always prepared. The money is enough for us. I said I won't make you hungry. Let's go and take advantage No one knows to leave Rome quickly. The city will soon be in chaos for a while. It is still too late to go. If you want to tell Nashan, hurry up. If he wants to, he can go with us. "
"Ah ?!" Sophia asked in amazement.
"Yes, we left here, but I don't want to go to the Royal Palace of Prague. We will go to a place where no one knows us. Believe me I will let you live a good life." Alexander hurried to pack things, not forgetting to comfort Sophia "Waiting for Nashan when we have a lot of children, he will definitely be happy to see his grandson."
Seeing that Alexander was busy in the room, Sophia stood there blankly, seeming not to know what to do for a while.
"Are you worried that you can't eat snacks?" Alexander chuckled. He squeezed the wrapped buckle and put it on the bed. "Trust your husband, as long as we find a place to settle down, I will let you eat The best dim sum in the world, now you need to prepare something as soon as possible, we will leave tonight. "
Sophia tilted her head to look at Alexander, and after a while she suddenly smiled happily.
She couldn't help nodding, then kissed Alexander and turned and ran out the door.
Alexander, who was left alone, slowly sat down ~ EbookFREE.me ~ He stooped to pick up the map on the ground and looked at it, then slowly rolled it up and placed it on the table.
Alexander began to write letters. He knew that his decision would not only surprise many people, but also make many people confused, so he hoped to leave a few letters to let them know his decision.
It was slightly dark and Sophia hadn't come yet, but Alexander was not in a hurry. It was still a little early. He didn't want his escape to be discovered, so he had to wait until later to call Sophia.
The sky outside was completely dark, and several letters had been written. Just when he began to write to Ruosha, he just had a beginning. At this time, there were faint footsteps outside the door.
The footsteps weren't Sophia's always cheerful rhythm. Somehow, Alexander's heart trembled slightly, and he slowly looked up at the door.
The door opened, and a slim figure appeared outside the slightly dim door.
Looking at the blurry face of Valentina de la Rovere, Alexander suddenly felt inexplicably cold for a while.
