Vol 2 Chapter 32: True brother

Before waiting to return to the castle, the news of the hunting attack was passed back. When there was still a short distance from the castle, Alexander saw Keizer who was riding on the horse to meet them.
Just a moment later, Keizer jumped out of the horse with his hands and feet. He rushed over and stretched out his hands to embrace Rusha's waist, and dragged her straight away.
"Let me see how you are," Keizer completely ignored Ruosha and said he was okay. He pressed her shoulders firmly, and turned around with her hands around her waist a few times. When she was sure After he was indeed not injured, his face suddenly sank. "Where is Burelli, I have to teach him well. It surprised you. I heard that the bear almost hurt you."
"I'm okay, Kaiser," Zuosha kept shaking her head. "It's not to blame Burelli, and he was injured in order to save me. You should not punish him. Instead, you should reward him."
"Let me reward the person who nearly injured you, and I have heard that it was someone else who actually saved you," Keizer categorically refused, before looking back at Alexander, "I heard that you saved me Sister, it makes me wonder how to thank you. "
Alexander jumped off the horse and bowed back to Keizer who was bowing slightly to him: "Please don't be polite, and the Countess is right, the real rescuer is Burleigh, I haven't seen such a brave person yet , He actually faced a bear with his bare hands. "
"That's what he is doing to remedy his mistakes. If something happens to Ruo Sha, I will bury him and live alive." Keizer glanced angrily at the Berliry behind the team, which was carried by several people. Then he smiled and said to Alexander, "But now that everyone is okay, then we can celebrate tonight, after all, you are fully loaded this time."
Looking at the seemingly excited Keizer, Zuo Sha was going to say something, but in the end he still didn't speak.
After arbitrarily ordering people to return Burelli to the castle, Keizer smiled and grabbed Russa's arm, the other hand made an invitation to Alexander: "Let's have fun tonight, know me There are not many such good days to enjoy. "
"Why are you going to leave, Kaiser?" Luo Sha asked unexpectedly.
"It's time to leave," Kaiser slapped on the top of Ruosha's head "but it will come back soon, and I will bring you a gift that will surprise you."
It seemed that there was no wrinkle of frowning frowning in Kezale's promise, and she was somewhat dissatisfied and asked, "Do you have to leave, I just came back."
"Must go," Keizer walked slowly along the road in the direction of the castle with Ruosha. "Know that we are in trouble with several boats in Taranto. If we can't find a solution, we may soon be hungry. Belly. "
"How is this possible," Russa asked unexpectedly. "Isn't Count Taranto's Hawson a good friend of you and your father?"
Hearing the name Earl Hossen, Alexander couldn't help thinking of what Burelli had said to him before, and Keizer seemed to be planning to let Russa marry the Earl of Taranto.
"The problem is that the Earl himself is in great trouble," Kesel said with a little helplessness when it comes to this topic. "Now the entire Mediterranean is not very flat. The Ottoman fleet may appear anywhere at any time, even the Venetians. I dare not go to sea easily. "
Said Keizer turned back to Alexander slightly: "I think you must be very clear about this, after all, are you from Sicily, don't you come and tell us what the Sicilian people think of the terrible Eastern pagans?"
Kaiser ’s problems reminded Alexander of the farce that happened when he drifted to Kalibo. Speaking of it, if it was not because of a misunderstanding that the Ottoman invasion was inexplicably frightened, Qiao Modi will not suddenly Committed a stroke.
So now he will not stand here.
After secretly discarding these thoughts in his mind, Alexander nodded and said: "Yes, the Sicilians are very afraid of the Ottomans, and some people are even scared and abnormal because they heard the news that the Ottomans are about to attack."
"It's nothing to be ashamed of," Keizer didn't laugh, but his voice became deeper. "In fact, we are all scared, even across the Mediterranean, but everyone is still afraid. Especially today At that time, Rome was no longer able to stand up to unite the entire world of Christ as centuries ago, and the pagans were stronger than ever before. "
Alexander nodded, he knew that Keizer was right, now this is the time when the new moon of the Ottoman Empire is rising, the whole of Europe is trembling under the watch of the Eastern Sudan, and no one dares to be arrogant anymore. Confessed to take back Constantinople, which belonged to the Europeans, not to mention the desire to regain Jerusalem, which had been regarded as a holy place centuries ago.
Just over two hundred years ago, Pope Innocent IV also once occupied Jerusalem peacefully because of the agreement between the Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II and the Saracens. The punishment for expelling the disciples.
At the time, the Pope regarded this agreement as a betrayal of the church and the entire Christian world. He disregarded many oppositions and mercilessly cut off the membership of the Holy Roman Emperor, and even thought that the punishment was not enough. Curse, he cursed that Frederick II would sink to after his death, and never get a chance to be saved.
At that time, only two hundred years later, the punishment of Innocent IV was regarded as fault-finding. For the current Europeans, no matter whether it is a noble king or a cardinal or even a pope, do n’t say that the restoration of Jerusalem, even if it can block any time Possible Ottomans will be regarded by them as the savior of the entire Christian world.
"The Venetians have to reorganize a fleet, which is actually not a good thing. The Ottomans are too powerful, but this is also a last resort for Venice. After all, if the Ottomans are the masters of the Mediterranean, then Venice He is going to die completely. "Kezel, who had returned to the castle, explained to Alexander sitting opposite." If you see Count Modillo, I hope you can tell him, and I hope the Count can persuade the king not to send to the Mediterranean. No matter what power, the terrible Ottomans may not yet be truly understood by now. If they act rashly, they may become the first victim. "
Alexander was not surprised by Kesel's caution, even slightly cringing, and did not feel timid.
In fact, in this era, no one knows better than him the terrible power that the Ottoman Empire has shown in the near future. If the Europeans' alert to the East is always just an inexplicable fear of unknown enemies, then they know more about that huge empire. Alexander of Power knew very well that the real crisis that the Europeans were about to face had not yet come.
However, these words of Keizer made Alexander more or less understand why he wanted Rosa to marry the Earl of Horan in Taranto, which seemed to involve Venice.
Perhaps in the entire Mediterranean world, there is no other country like Venice that is so obsessed with this sea and its own destiny is closely related to it. It can be said that when the city of Venice was established, its rise and fall was linked to the Mediterranean hegemony Together.
Since the first Crusade, as the most splendid city-state in the Mediterranean, each time Venice has played an important role that no one can ignore.
Whether it was generous to provide large sums of money for the troops of the first Eastern Expedition, or later became the gold master behind the famous three Wang Dongzheng, until one hand planned the most infamous in the history of the Eastern Expedition to the East Rome, which is also a Christian country. In the siege of Constantinople, the imperial capital, the merchants of Venice always appeared in every corner of the Mediterranean Sea.
Because of this, for the floating city of Venice, losing control of the Mediterranean is not only unbearable than any other country, but as Keizer said, losing the Mediterranean means that Venice is about to face death.
Taranto, as a coastal city, seems to have a deep relationship with Venice.
Just don't know why, Keizer doesn't seem to be optimistic about Naples, which is also an important city on the north coast of the Mediterranean Sea, as can be seen from his marriage to Rusha.
Ruosha quickly found an excuse to leave after returning to the castle. Alexander knew that she should be taking care of Burelli, which made him somewhat jealous.
They are all older brothers. Although his elder brother can't say anything, and is simply a counterfeit, he is not too happy to watch "sister" care more about others.
But Alexander still asked Uliu to ask about Berri ’s residence in the castle, and then took Mahimo to the Berri ’s hut.
"The Countess may marry Prince Alfred. After all, she may become the queen," Mahimo said as she walked. "But if her brother firmly objected, then she might also marry the Taranto. Earl of. "
The monk glanced at Alexandria as he spoke. When he saw Alexandria, he did n’t seem to feel much, but his expression became serious.
Do n’t you think this is a terrible thing? Miss Count will marry them. Anyone?"
"Why is it bad?" Alexander asked casually.
"Don't you want her to be your wife?" Mahimo seemed a little surprised to ask, "If you can marry the Countess, then you can not only inherit a lot of property, but also become Count Modillo's Nephew-in-law, know that the Earl has no sons or daughters, which means you may inherit the Earl's title. "
Alexandria froze for a moment, but he didn't think about this. Speaking of Modillo, he was not prosperous, but it was said that he had two sons but died early. The nearest heir to the blood line of the Modillo family.
If you can marry Ruosha in the capacity of Alexander, this is indeed a good result, and thinking carefully about the identity of Joel Modillo is not only dangerous for him, but also too slim.
After all, the Queen of Castile and her husband are not a fuel-efficient lamp. If you have the opportunity to marry a Countess and have the opportunity to inherit the title and territory of another Count, this should be enough for him No longer take the risk of seemingly hopeless to succeed.
The thought flashed quickly in Alexander's mind, and for a while he even nodded his head in agreement.
However, in the end he just looked at the monk deeply and asked, "Tell me that you will really see a doctor, or is it just a lie like all your other things?"
Mahimo touched his nose with a little disappointment, shaking his head and unable to explain: "You know, there are some things that can't be determined by whether they are really true. Know that I have been to many places and I have seen many famous ones. Doctor, so although I have not seen anyone myself, but ... "
"You won't," Alexander interrupted Mahimo directly, but he then said to the slightly embarrassing monk, "But that's okay, I will tell others that you have learned very high medical skills, and let the rest let Let me take a look. "
Mahimo looked at Alexander in front somewhat unexpectedly. If he still did not believe that he was indeed a messenger from Sicily, the monk was a little suspicious that he might be his own colleague.
Burley's hut was in a corner below the castle. Compared with his huge size, the house was too narrow, so that Alexander had to let the monk stay outside.
The room was filled with a pungent smell of herbs, and looking at Burelli who was still sleeping in bed, Alexander gently asked Rusha who was standing beside him, "How is he now?"
"Sleeping," Ruo Sha said, shaking her head. "He was sweating a lot, and he looked very painful. Maybe I should go to my father, even though he doesn't even remember Burleigh."
Seeing Alexandria's unexpected appearance, Zuo Sha gave a slightly ironic smile: "Why did you hear any rumors, saying that Burley and I are half-sisters?"
Alexander wanted to explain, but he didn't know where to start for a while. From Rusha's expression, he estimated that the monk was probably completely wrong. Just thinking that Burelli was the illegitimate son of Count Cosenza, he couldn't help but feel a little strange. Then, where did the rumors that Burleigh was the illegitimate son of the countess come from?
"Berelli is my father's son, and his mother is my mother's maid," Zuosha said softly. "There are some things you don't need to know too much, but if you can cure him, I will appreciate you, even if I Father will not admit this kindness, but I will never forget it. "
"I'm just ..., my accompanying pastor, and his medical skills can help."
Alexander said hello to Mahimo, who was waiting outside, and looked at the monk's pretending to look up. Alexander simply walked up to look at Bereri's injury.
"Adult, his wounds are no longer bleeding, but they don't look very good," Mahimo whispered. "Maybe I should wake him up. It's bad enough to sleep like this."
The monk said he didn't know where to take out a sharp knife, and when he saw him swinging the knife, he would make a gesture on Burelli's arm. Alexander grabbed Mahimo's wrist.
"Are you going to give him blood?"
"Yes, lord, I don't think he has a fever. It's not a good thing. A little more blood may cool him down."
Seeing what Mahimo took for granted, Alexander had to whisper and warn him not to start indiscriminately, while taking the knife from him.
"Go find something cool, let his temperature drop first, and open the window, add some salt after the water he drinks," Alexander ordered to look down at the sleeping Berri.
Although there was a terrible wound on his face, the sleeping Burelli looked calm, and maybe even painful during sleepiness, his mouth groaned from time to time with a "humming" whisper. Some naive.
Speaking of which, he still has some good feelings for this big man, not only unusually ferocious, but also because of his loyalty to Ruo Sha made Alexander quite admired.
The character of loyalty is always scarce and admirable, even if it is an enemy.
Ruosha sat down slowly leaning against the wall, watching Alexander live alive with the monk until he stopped and wiped his hands before standing up and walking beside him.
"I'm half a year older than Burelli," Zuo Sha suddenly said, "When my mother was pregnant, my father was drunk once. He first called my mother a prostitute and even beat her, and then no matter whether she was pregnant with me or not, She threw the bed, my mother was terrified at that time, she knew that if he was allowed to let him come, she might have a miscarriage, so she wanted to escape, but she could n’t escape at all. It was Burley ’s mother who saved her and she took the initiative Dedicated myself to my father until he vented completely ~ EbookFREE.me ~ What about later? "Alexander asked in a low voice.
"At that time my father's spirit was already very bad and he drank, so he didn't remember what happened, maybe he didn't care even if he remembered it," Ruosha shook her head. When I arrived outside the castle, I thought that this matter had passed, but later I knew she was pregnant. "
Luo Sha tilted her head and looked at Alexander: "What do you think my mother should do?"
"I don't know," Alexander laughed bitterly. "I think she would be willing to let her back, even though she thanked the woman."
"Yes, she didn't want her to come back, but when Burelli was born, his mother had a hard time giving birth." Ruosha looked back at Burleigh. "My mother was guilty. She knew that it was all for her, so she Bring Berari back, even if there are various rumors still raising him. "
"Berelli is very loyal to you." Alexander whispered. "He is the most loyal person I have ever seen."
"Also my best brother, I won't let anyone hurt, so I will always protect him!"
