Vol 6 Chapter 38: Naples, the end of a royal family

Alfred was anxiously walking around in the room, and sometimes a little sound outside would make his heart beat faster.
The Kosenza army has entered the city. Although he has not seen the Kosenzas known as grenadiers, he has heard too much about the legends that Zuosha beat the Ottoman pagans in the Balkans.
Alfred remembers that as soon as he heard someone talking about it, he walked over and listened to it from beginning to end. People have known for a long time that the prince likes to listen to stories about Miss Cosenza. In order to please the prince or seek money, some servants often deliberately wait where the prince may pass, and then start talking non-stop.
Alfred actually knew the little tricks of those people, but he still rewarded those servants every time, because he really liked listening to all the stories about Lao Sha.
Now that person has always been enamoured by him, and even some people who feel that she is not worthy of her have become his wife, which makes Alfred feel a great happiness, and sometimes even a little afraid, because he I always feel that this is coming too fast, and I wonder if there will be any accidents next.
Now it seems that his hunch is still very strong. He spent his wedding night in the midst of helplessness. When I heard that someone tried to question his regency, and the supporters behind those people were actually his mother, Suddenly Alfred wanted to find Ruo Sha, and then held her tightly in her arms to tell her that now in the world he could only trust and trust her.
"Where are the people in Cosenza?" Alfred asked impatiently. The people who could be left by him were his most trusted people. The key is that these people are now close to him. Tied together, such as his several servants, these people will be his left and right arms in the court in the future, and there are a few who are not high in status, but because they have always listened to his dispatch, now they have only the city defense on his side. Army officers, these people have even been regarded by the rebels as the prince remnants that must be eradicated from the beginning, so Alfred believes that they have completely lost their way outside of following themselves.
"Your Highness, please don't be careful, the Princess has already greeted them personally." A servant whispered, seeing Alfred's sunken eyes, the servant handed over a glass of wine Hard times. "
Alfred sighed softly. He knew that the servant said the difficulty was to face the queen and her rebellious companions.
Knowing the queen ’s conspiracy, Alfred immediately withdrew his men to the palace on the side of the coast near the coast, and according to the order of Rosa, his people temporarily constructed a rudimentary road on the way to the main hall of the palace. Fortifications, but looking at the messy obstacles piled up with furniture and overturned statues, Alfred wondered what these things could do.
After hearing that the Kosenza army entered the city, Zuosha offered to go out to meet her grenadier. Although he was very reluctant, Alfred finally failed to block his wife and watched a group of guard soldiers holding a musket. Alfred was really worried and moved to protect the back of Ruosha that was disappearing under the protection.
But Alfred didn't know that Zosha, who had left the palace, did not directly greet her army, but got on a carriage that had already been waiting, and ran towards the Lookout Tavern.
In "Lookout Whistle," Alexander looked at the torch on the street in the distance like a flaming snake, and smiled with satisfaction. Although there were some accidents in some places, the plan was still going smoothly. All of the things that will happen next become so natural, it can even be said to be seamless.
Barr's voice came from below, and then the footsteps of the wooden staircase. Aufrei silently gestured to the several guards standing in the corner, and several short rifles were immediately pointed to the room. Wooden door in the attic.
The wooden door opened gently, and Ruosha walked up to the roof, and the night breeze blew forward, blowing Ruosha's hair and Alexander's heart.
Alexander, who strode up completely without saying a word, robbed Rosa's body away from the ground like a robber. When the gauze used by Rosa to cover his head and face fell on the ground, Aufrei couldn't help waving Started to drive the hunting guards off the roof.
"My lord is good, this is the problem, hey ..." O'Leary shook his head with emotion and walked down the attic along the ladder, saw several officers waiting for him underneath, O'Ley Waved your hand casually, "Okay everyone, you all know what you should do, and occupy the palace according to the order!"
"You are jealous."
"I do not have."
"You are jealous, I can tell."
Ruosha and Alexander sat side by side on the roof. When she talked, she glanced at Alexander from time to time, as if she was sure that her guess was right, and then she laughed with satisfaction.
"What will happen to Frederick?" Suosha asked suddenly, she deliberately did not pay attention to Alexander's expression, although he knew what he must ask.
"Tietolos is not a poison, at least not the kind of poison that people think," Alexander smiled. "Frederick will not die, he will be unbearable because of the pain that caused the heartbeat to increase due to the consumption of Tietolos. , But for a while he will not have any major problems, but his spirit will become trance and hysterical because of stimulation, this will be considered hysteria or Zhongxie, you know if this situation occurs in civilians What does it mean? "
"Or is it considered to be the possession of the devil?" Ruosha's face was slightly stiffened. Although she knew that it was only the result of drugs, she couldn't help thinking of the madness that seemed to be occupied by something evil. Feeling a little creepy.
"Of course, a king will not be punished by the church for this symptom, but his crown cannot be worn, but it is said that his brother Alfonso did not take the throne to his son to escape from the French. Monastery, why Frederick ca n’t do that.

Alexander said, looking at Ruosha, and seeing that she still deliberately looked into the distance and refused to take a look at him, he finally couldn't bear to say fiercely: "Maybe I should order the Balkans to let them rescue Alver Reid moved his hands and feet a little bit. "
"Pomp," Ruo Sha finally laughed. She turned to look at Alexandria, and then took the bottle of green sticky juice that had been used half out of her clothes pocket and shook it in front of him. "You think against Alfred." How much does Germany need to use? What makes me wonder is that you are not so confident in me, in addition to this bottle of potion, it actually made people sew a short knife into my wedding dress, do you want me to be on the wedding night Kill my husband directly? "
"If you can, I think I'll kill your husband now," Alexander sniffed after taking the potion from Ruo Sha's hand, and then asked, "You didn't give him too much."
"I do n’t know how much to put, but I just poured it into his wine glass as you said. In addition, I found that you must have deliberately made it so much that someone nailed that wedding dress so many buttons. As a result, Alfred I haven't had time to untie half of my sleep like a pig. "
"Relax, the other half of him will have no chance to undo." Alexander looked at the shaking figures in the street below, the Kosenza and Montina troops that had already entered the city were quickly blocking the intersection. .
Taking over the city, occupying the royal palace, and quickly isolating the areas where the nobility gathered, all of this is proceeding in an orderly manner, and the Naples City Defence Force that has received the order has to either take the initiative or be forced to accept the command of the troops entering the city. Some people who try to resist the unwillingness to take orders are suppressed on the spot even when they only show a little intent to resist, and some are directly sentenced to capital punishment!
Since ancient times, coups have been and cruel, and countless coups have been repeatedly proved. Any childish coup attempted in a benevolent manner often ends in fiasco.
As Modillo said, if they fail, their only way out is to go into exile, and of course Alexandria does n’t want to flee back to Montina or Pisa, so he can only use cruel blood for himself, or for His own child opened a path to Napoli ’s supreme power.
"You said that if I make you pregnant now ..."
"My brother, are you going to perform my husband's duty instead of Alfred last night?" Zuo Sha stood up from the wall and beat the dust on her clothes. She looked at Alexander who was still sitting by the wall. , And then slowly rounded to his back, bent down, his hands clasped his neck from behind, and whispered in his ear, "Dear brother, I said it ’s all yours and only yours, so do n’t worry, we have a lot of time of."
Alexander smiled slightly, he felt that Ruosha sometimes intentionally used the sibling relationship to stimulate him, but just as he was about to speak, a fierce gunshot suddenly came!
The two couldn't help looking in the direction of the gunshots, watching the bright lights that flashed from time to time in the dark shadows in the distance and the faint gunshots that came afterwards, and the two people spoke in unison: "Royal Palace!"
In the palace, Alfred, who was staring at the door in his chair, felt that his chest was a little stuffy. He held the saber on his side tightly, and looked at the several attendants beside him who were also holding arms and looked nervous, Alfred Suddenly relieved.
"Fortunately, Ruosha is not here," the prince said to Count Modillo, who was sitting calmly on the other side. "I used to worry about her going to meet the Kosenza, and now it seems that she does not need to be a captive with us at least. "
Looking at the heartfelt comfort on the prince's face, the count gave him a complex look.
No one thought that the rebels would directly attack Alfred's guard.
Or that it was not an attack but only persecution. After the queen stood up and ordered the soldiers to lay down their arms, Alfred ’s poor guard in the palace immediately collapsed, except for a few people who fled Outside the Alfred's coastal palace, everyone else followed the queen, or stood obediently as the rebels approached the palace.
But it was precisely because of this chaos that the Count Modillo and the Archbishop of Naples who had received the news were able to escape to the prince with a few men, and the palm seal officer was obviously not so lucky. He grabbed a head, so he was taken over.
The sound outside the palace is very noisy, but you can still vaguely hear a few familiar tones, which are some of the important officials in the court of Naples. These people are obviously not optimistic about Alfred, or they do n’t want to see Count Modillo Powerful, so after a turbulent and clear-cut quarrel, these people decided to launch the king and later confront Count Modillo.
"Maybe we can talk to Her Majesty the Queen," the Archbishop of Naples said a little restlessly, listening to the messy noise outside. He had never expected that there would be so many things to attend a wedding. First, the king suddenly fell ill, then early After receiving the suggestion from Count Modillo, he had to rush to declare Alfred's regency, and then the queen suddenly objected to this decision. Now that they have been surrounded by the house, "we can agree that the queen and your highness will be regent together. There is precedent. "
"My mother will not agree, she wants to become Queen of Naples herself!" Alfred said angrily, staring at the door, imagining that the queen was surrounded by a group of rebels outside the door ready to rush in He took away the power he had just received.
"We can't negotiate with those outside, or even say a word with them," said Count Modillo calmly. "Archbishop, I can't help but remind you that the leader of the rebels outside is the queen. If we talk to them at this time, Regardless of the final result, His Royal Highness may be said to be competing with the Queen for the regency, but in fact never competed for such a thing, at least His Highness did not, because as the first heir of adulthood, the King cannot take care of it At that time, His Highness had undoubtedly complete regency. "
The archbishop opened his mouth, and he did n’t know if he should denounce Count Modillo, who was suddenly maddeningly pedantic, listening to the noise outside, the archbishop even kind of rushed up and pulled the collar of the earl He shouted: "Say these words to those outside, and go to the thugs who cut off your head as long as you hesitate, and see how they will answer your question without a doubt!"
But the Archbishop did not dare, because he saw the sword that was obviously much heavier than the ordinary long sword at the ear of the count, and he did not dare to rush out of the palace because he did not know the nobles who had gone crazy Will he give him away without giving him the opportunity to speak at all.
Alfred hesitated, but he stood up and walked to the archbishop.
"Archbishop, please bless and crown me, I will face those traitors as the regent of Naples."
The Archbishop looked at Alfred unexpectedly, but he did not expect the prince to behave so bravely at this time. After glancing at the count and getting Modillo nodding and acquiescence, the Archbishop started in a hurry. Xia had to directly delete a large part of the etiquette award ceremony.
There was a loud noise, and the people in the palace looked at the door with fear and fear. They knew that it should be the rebel nobles who cleared the obstacles that blocked the road. That was also the last barrier they used from Bao. With the heavy footsteps that could already be heard, the rebels had arrived outside the door.
"I appoint you with the power entrusted to me by the Regent of Naples, and the Count of Naples as my Chief Minister." Alfred hurriedly issued the order, which was his first official order after he became the regent.
"Follow the orders, the temple ..."
The loud noise of "Boom!" Interrupted Count Modillo's words. He could not help but clenched his epee and suddenly looked up, and everyone in the temple looked at the gate in horror.
The door was not broken as imagined, but the roaring kept rising and falling outside the door, and it became more and more dense.
"What's going on?" Alfred asked somehow.
Earl Modillo frowned and listened to the sound outside. When the sound of more and more regular shooting came, the earl slowly smiled: "It is the Kosenza, this is Kosenza's first throw Shell company. "
After finishing the talk, the count did not wait for the Archbishop to block it, and already carried the sword to the gate with a few men.
The guards opened the door cautiously first, but even the fierce gunfire, shouts, and screams of the wounded people slammed in, which made the people in the room nervous.
"Open the door." The count pushed the guard in front of him, kicking the door firmly, and with a loud bang the door slammed outward, and the count stepped out.
There were smoke in the yard. Some people kept running back and forth in a panic, and some people rushed towards an empty area full of smoke not far away, but with a series of gunfire, those people immediately fell to the ground.
"Sir, this is too dangerous!" An attendant tried to stop Count Modillo, but he was pushed away by him when he saw the panicked dangling palm seal officer being held by two guards in a panicked crowd , Modillo walked directly to him through the crowd.
Someone recognized the count on the road, some were stunned, and some screamed and rushed up to try to stop him.
At this time, the count showed his terrible swordsmanship, and the epee became extremely flexible in his hands. As the sword turned over, the stab weapon was easily swayed. As the wrist was pushed upward, the hand guard was ruthless. He slammed his opponent's throat, and when the opponent screamed before falling, the count had continued to cut down the next enemy.
When they came to the palm seal officer, the two guards looked at each other. They were afraid of the count's terrible swordsmanship and his indecent identity. After looking at each other, the two guards turned and ran away without looking back.
"Count, I thought I was going to die." Leoford, who was about to collapse, rushed to Count Modillo. He looked at the panicking people running around and tried to lower his voice as quickly as possible. "Let's find a quick one Hide somewhere first. "
"No, we have to find someone."
The count said that he continued to move forward. The palm seal officer looked at his back just to be blocked. Suddenly, with a burst of gunshots, there were bursts of roaring and screaming around him, which made the palm seal officer startled immediately. Chased up.
The earl searched through the crowd, and finally let him see the queen who was protected by several guards and was hiding behind a corner.
Modillo walked towards the queen. He even cut over the guards who tried to stop him without looking. When standing in front of the king, the count nodded politely.
"Your Majesty, I think it ’s better for you to protect me now. You should see that your rebellion has failed. ~ Www.EbookFREE.me ~ The queen stood up slowly, and she was stained with ashes on her face from time to time. Change, just when she saw several fellows who ran not far away ready to ask for help, a voice that made her now fearful came from the other side of the garden: "I am Prince Alfred, Napoli ’s regent ’s wife, Russa of Cosenza, your rebellion has failed, and I order you to stop your resistance, otherwise you will not be killed! "
The queen saw that the same party who had to escape had stopped. They were not awake because they heard Ruosha's words, but because they found themselves surrounded by the regiment.
The sound of the guns finally stopped, and from the slowly dispersing smoke, the entire team of Kosenza grenadiers drove towards the rebel nobles with their muskets.
Looking at the nobles and their men who had thrown away their weapons, the queen looked to Ruosha who was walking slowly in the distance.
"I failed, but this is not my failure, but the failure of the Royal Family of Naples." The queen stared at Earl Modillo "My husband will die with the crown, and my son may not have this opportunity." "
In the early morning of July 6, marked by the occupation of the royal palace, Cosenza and Montina took over Naples.
