Vol 2 Chapter 31: "brothers"

The dinner was held by Keizer instead of his father. As the earliest son of the count, Keizer was the legal heir. After the Earl of Cosenza became more and more old, he had begun to replace the count to manage the territory.
Although there is only one guest like Alexander, the recipe is still very rich. Although Cosenza looks like a country, it is incomparable to a big city such as Naples with a prosperous harbour, but the table is filled with fragrance. , The sapless game, Alexander was a little strange how Ruosha could keep her figure in such a rich sea of ​​Roshan wine.
"I don't like to eat too much meat," Ruosha seemed to understand the doubts in Alexander's eyes. She inserted a piece of roasted wild deer meat with a fork and put it in her mouth to take a bite and put it down. The wooden spoon bears the crushed lettuce mixed with butter and honey. "My father is too greedy. I have watched him eat all kinds of food from a very young age. His hands are gone, but this It doesn't prevent him from eating meat, but the more he looks like this, the worse. "
Russa's words surprised Alexander a little. He certainly knew that it would be bad for a body like the Earl to consume too much fat, but he did not expect Russa to know the truth.
"Meat is more than delicious," Keizer, sitting on the throne, disapproved. "This is still an authority. We don't know that hunting is for fun, but to show our rights to these beasts. God created All things, but talent is God's most beloved creation in this world, so God gives this world to people so that we can get what we want. "
A person who views power as everything and pursues it by all means. This is the definition of these words given to Kessel by Alexander. Although he knew him soon, he was almost sure of who the future count would be.
"Tomorrow we can go to the hunting grounds to see," Zuo Sha said to Alexander. "Cosenza's hunting grounds have a long history. Even the earliest Kosenza was a hunting officer."
"Roman hunting officer," Keizer took a sip of wine and added, "It is said that more than one Roman emperor had been here, but the Romans always came and went until they could never come again." "
Alexander knew that Kaiser was actually talking about the emperors of the Eastern Roman Empire. In the millenniums after the fall of Western Rome, the emperors of the Eastern Roman Empire tried to retake their belongings more than once, so they launched many wars to recover the lost ground. In these wars, sometimes they can successfully recover a large area of ​​land, and sometimes they are almost persecuted by new and old enemies.
So, as Keizer said, Cosenza and many places along the Mediterranean Sea have been conquered or abandoned by the Romans for many centuries, until the fall of Constantinople, and the empire completely dies.
Alexander did n’t know how he was inexplicably sentimental because of such a topic. Think about it. Perhaps the escape that this body has experienced resonated. Alexander suppressed the unreasonable loss in his heart and said with a tone that remembered: "Speaking This, I also promised the countess to show her some interesting things, if tomorrow is convenient for us to go and see. "
"What is interesting?" Keizer asked with a smile, his eyes patrolling the faces of his sister and Alexander, as if to find something between the two's expressions.
"Some gadgets," Alexander didn't want to say too much, so he mentioned this, just to make an excuse for Zuo Tian and Zuosha to go out. "You know there is no such big hunting ground in Sicily, so I want to express my invitation to the count Thank you. "
Kaiser nodded. In his opinion, this young man from Sicily should have attempted his sister, but he didn't care much. After all, even if the two really happened, they shouldn't be too much. It doesn't matter.
What he was really worried about was Frederick's son Alfred.
"I heard that the king's body is getting worse and worse?" Keizer asked while cutting the meat on the plate. "I saw him a few years ago. At that time, I only thought that he was a child who likes to lose his temper. Now look Maybe he was already sick by then. "
"The Naples are very worried, but I think the situation should not be bad."
Alexander responded with care, as a messenger, he was actually not suitable to talk about this topic, but he had heard on the way that even during the occupation by the French, Cosenza did not suffer too much intrusion. Apart from paying a considerable amount of taxes to Sencha, there was hardly any violation of Kosencha.
Perhaps the French felt that it was enough to occupy Naples, perhaps they were unable to do so at the time, but no matter how they were with Modillo, the relationship between Cosenza and the French was very delicate.
Because of this, now Keizer will talk so casually with a new acquaintance about the king's physical condition.
"If the king cannot bear his responsibilities," Keizer glanced at Alexander, "Do you think that Duke Frederick will assume this responsibility, especially now that this king has no descendants?"
"I don't think I'm suitable to discuss this topic." Alexander realized that he couldn't go on like this, he even felt that Keizer was deliberately leading him into the pit.
"It really doesn't fit," Keizer smiled. "So where are you going tomorrow? The hunting grounds are huge."
"I'll let Burelli lead us," Ruo Sha seemed to be interested in mentioning hunting. "He knows everything everywhere."
"Berelli, of course."
Keizer no longer spoke after talking, but started to put his hand down on a big wild boar in front of him.
When Alexander saw the Burleigh, the first impression was whether the monk had made a mistake.
If the owner of Lookout Whistle Tavern is a big man, then Burleigh is an enlarged pub owner.
With thick shoulders, a wide spine, and arms and fists that can be frightened by a glance, Alexander felt that with George Anne ’s good body, it was difficult to imagine such a big Samson.
This Burelli was indeed a big man. Even if he was standing far away, he could see his figure taller than others. When he waved away the horses behind him, Alexander noticed that the strong horses seemed a little afraid. He made a commotion.
"Berelli!" Luo Sha shouted from afar, still raising her smooth arms, and shaking, Alexander noticed that when she saw Luo Sha, a big smile appeared on the big man's face.
This is a horse farm located some distance away from the castle. To Alexander's surprise, although Cosenza is located in a remote place, many places are not worse than Naples. For example, this looks like a small horse farm. He believes that it is in Naples is also rare.
"Miss, it's nice that you're back." Burelli also shouted far away, his voice not quite commensurate with his rugged appearance, it sounded not only dull, but also somewhat delicate.
This made Alexander think that this person may not be as thick as his appearance.
"This is my friend, Alexander from Sicily," Russa's somewhat irregular introduction made Alexander a little strange. He could see that she seemed to be very good with this Burley, or if she and Keizer looked Like a brother and sister with deep feelings, then it is more like a pair of friends with this Burleigh.
However, what Ruzah said next was a little more than Alexander expected. She turned back and said to him with a very serious tone: "This is my brother, his name is Burelli."
Alexander looked at Ruza in amazement. Although he had already seen the things about Mrs. George Anne in person, Ruza's words still made him feel weird.
"I'm just your servant, miss." The big guy next to me seemed to feel that Rusha had lost her by saying so, and some bowed slightly to Alexander. "Adult, please don't care. The lady is kidding, although I have been in science since childhood. The Sencha parents are big, but I dare not forget who I am. "
"Then remember that you are my brother," said Ruosha very seriously. She saw Alexandria's unexpected appearance but showed no other expression. She nodded and continued, "Today we are going to the hunting ground, Berri, you lead the way."
"Good lady," perhaps Russa's words made him a little nervous, and Burelli shouted to several people not far away, asking them to help bring a few horses that looked quite strong. "These horses are from They arrived from Bohemia and the Taranto did business with them, and they exchanged horses. "
Berri's words reminded Alexander of the news that Mahimo had heard before that Keizer wanted Martha to marry a count of Taranto.
"The horses are very strong, but I am more interested in the little things you said." Ruosha looked at Alexandria. Before she came, she had seen that the Moorish servant of Alexandria seemed to bring some seemingly fragmented ones. Things, although it is not clear what they are, have caused her great curiosity.
"In fact, it's just a small change," Alexander said as carelessly as possible. He looked at Uliu, who was busy putting something on the horse's back, and saw that he was hanging two bulky arson guns on the saddle. "I said earlier that it can make the matchlock gun less difficult to use with a little modification, and now we can use it to give it a try."
Luo Sha nodded with interest and nodded to the big man next to him: "Boley, how are we going today?"
"Miss, we don't walk the North Slope today," Berri led the docile horse. He bent down and stretched out his hands to let Ruo Sha step on the horse with his arm before he continued. "There was a lot of rain a few days ago, and the road on the north was not easy to walk. Today we walked directly along the top of the mountain, although it is a bit far away and the road is more convenient."
Ruosha obviously trusted the Burleigh, and agreed without saying anything, and her interest seemed to have always been on the gadgets that Alexander said, so she just started leaving the horse farm and asked: "Now let me see What are those gadgets you said? "
The slightly eager look of Ruosha made Alexander very interesting. Obviously, this "sister" seemed to have a stronger curiosity than most other people, and this intensity was even more obvious than many men.
"Please wait patiently, and soon you will know what it is all about," looking at Zuo Sha ’s golden eyebrows and raising her, Alexander said with a smile. "Miss Count, I must say, if you were born in Bologna, maybe There will be achievements. "
Ruosha's face sank slightly, and she kicked the mount down hard. As the horse speeded up, Ruosha's horse hurried forward to walk side by side with Berari.
The big man looked back at Alexander, and after a few words with Ruosha, he suddenly turned his horse head and came to Alexander.
"What did you say to the lady?" Although the voice is not high, and if you look closely, you will find that although he is huge, he has not completely got rid of the kind of youthfulness of a face, but because he is too big, so Blocked in front of him, Alexander still had a feeling of depression.
Alexander was also a little curious about this "suspicious brother". He didn't know who his father was, but he could also imagine it when he saw Berri, as long as he thought that George Anne would be so overwhelming with such a strong man, he I think the life of the countess is really a mess.
"I'm just saying that if she was born in Bologna, she might have done something," looking at the big face with a blank face, Alexander had to explain, "Many schools in Bologna encourage women to go in to learn knowledge, which is not allowed in other places. "
"Miss doesn't need anyone to teach her, she's naturally smart." Burelli said with a proud tone, but then his broad shoulders collapsed. "But even if the lady wants to learn, it's useless, she will marry soon. . "
"Marry someone?"
"Yeah, Earl Hawson of Taranto," Bereri lowered his voice, seeming to be afraid of the previous Lao Sha hearing, "Master Kessel insisted that the young lady marry the earl, and he had quarreled with his wife for this matter. Secondary shelf. "
"Countess?"
"Yes," Burelli nodded helplessly. "Although my wife is against it, Master Keizer is the heir to the earl, and he will be the earl one day in the future, so the young lady will always marry the earl Husson."
"Can the count be better than Prince Alfred, maybe the prince will become king in the future."
Alexander is actually very strange, he does not understand if Keizer wants to use his sister's marriage for profit ~ EbookFREE.me ~ there is nothing more beneficial than marrying Frederick's son
After all, in today ’s era where a cold can be killed, King Ferdinand of Naples is a very dangerous sign that there are no offspring. Once he has three long and two short, the closest to the throne is his uncle Frederick.
And Alfred, as Frederick's eldest son, can't such a big advantage make Keizer heart moved?
"Are you talking about the Duke's son?" Burelli asked in a surprised tone, and then shook his head in a big way. "That man can't do it, the young master can't choose him."
"Why?" Alexander was really curious this time.
"Because, because ..." Burelli's face suddenly turned red, and then he suddenly turned his head and ran forward.
"What's going on?" Alexander looked at the pair of "siblings" inexplicably.
Suddenly, Burrell in front lived on the mount.
Then, a low roar came from the depths of the woods!
