Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

Vol 6 Chapter 129: Princess

In the early autumn of 1496, a young girl left her hometown with 17 years of uneasiness and longing for romance. Although she was still a ignorant little girl, she was born in the royal family of Castilla and had a noble birth. The lineage of the parents of the Double Kings made her one of the small groups of people who had noble status in Europe at the time.

17 years old is the age of innocence and likes to dream. If there is another shadow that keeps her buried in her heart, longing for and longing for her, then she will easily fall into her own dream of weaving.

The girl is called Juana, a very beautiful name, just like her people.

Fair skin, long blond hair, beautiful blue eyes, and a young but graceful figure, which was a little bit young, this girl is proud of herself, and she was All he has to do is to show such a beautiful self in front of a strange young man who is 2 years older than her after a long journey.

But although they are unfamiliar, the relationship is very intimate, because according to the procedure of a proxy wedding in his hometown strictly in accordance with the canon, the young man named Philip is already her husband, and she is just going to see her husband.

Many people said to the girl that her husband was young and handsome, and he was a rare and handsome man, and his identity was even more distinguished. As the eldest son of Maximian, the Grand Duke of Austria, the emperor of the Holy Empire, Philip not only inherited Seen as the heir to the Duke of Vienna, he was also appointed the governor of the Lowlands by his father.

For such a husband, Juana has extremely curious and all kinds of conjectures that sometimes make people laugh. In her still naive mind, Philip is imagined as a brave knight who protects the princess from fighting the dragon. His father is like a dignified yet romantic monarch, a man who trusts her in her future life.

It ’s just that these are just imaginations after all, so the young Princess Castilla is both excited and upset along the way,

Juana would never have thought that when she first saw the husband whom everyone praised, she fell into an inextricable relationship.

The Duke of Vienna, Philip the Lowland Governor, has a beautiful Philipp nickname. This young man is as dazzling as a sun that is radiating a hot light when he walks there. His smart, witty, and courageous challenge to face makes many follow. His people firmly believe that this is a true monarch, and his handsome appearance makes countless women deeply fascinated by the noble duke.

When she first saw Philip, Juana knew she was in love, not because this man was her husband, but because she fell in love with the man who made her obsessed.

In the night, Juana knelt piously in front of the cross in the bedroom that the emperor ordered her to arrange carefully. Thank God for giving her such an excellent husband, and thank you fate for arranging her to meet the beloved at this most beautiful age .

In October 1496, a formal wedding was held in the city of Lear in the lowlands. The couple was married to the second daughter of the kings of Castilla and Aragon. Princess Juana and the Holy Roman Emperor, Grand Duke Maximilian of Austria Philip, Duke of Vienna, son of Ann I.

This is a typical political marriage, and is a testament to the alliance of two powerful nations. This is a key part of Maximian ’s series of strategies to use marriage bonds to build a strong Habsburg dynasty, because His daughter just recently married the eldest son of the two-king couple, * An, according to Maximian I's calculations, whether his son-in-law inherited the crowns of the two kingdoms in the future, or the couple gave the country Half of the children are in the order of succession, and their family will not suffer.

Just to surprise many people, Juana fell in love with Philip at first sight.

So everyone knows that this is a marriage that does not involve personal affection. That is to say, like other noble marriages in this era, no one expects this couple to be in love with each other, and no one can even expect them to live in harmony as long as they can maintain A minimum marriage contract is even if everyone has fulfilled their expectations.

But Juana could n’t help but fell in love with Philip, she was completely fascinated by him, and that kind of obsession would feel uneasy even if he could n’t see him for a minute, and if any woman approached Philip, no matter what identity, Regardless of her appearance and age, she would immediately be jealous and unsustainable.

The stormy love brought Juana a stubborn possessiveness towards Philip. She insisted on being with her husband. Except for some occasions that were not suitable for her to attend, Huanna was almost staying beside her husband, seeming to be afraid. If you don't pay attention, you will be snatched away by some woman.

The result of this love was that, two years later, she gave birth to her first child, a girl, and Maximian I named the granddaughter Leonardo.

The birth of her daughter did not affect Juana ’s love for her husband. She was still so passionate and still so obsessed with Philip that she was so close to her life.

It's just that this overly obsessive love makes some people around her start to feel a little uneasy, especially the waitresses around her, they can't stand the nervous suspicion of Juana because she suspects all the things she sees appear in The women around Philip were coveting her husband, which made her try to expel all the waitresses, but this idea was finally stopped by Maximian.

During this time, Juana and Philip sat in Flanders, which was her happiest day, although it seemed that Philip ’s responsibility in the lowlands was getting heavier, and he was also caught in an attempt to reform the lowlands. The trouble encountered by the noble council, but this time is indeed the most free time for this young couple.

But the bad news from Castile suddenly disrupted Juana's life. Her brother Ann suddenly fell ill, and then the treatment was ineffective. In the anxiety of the whole country, the crown prince was finally called.

The fate of Juana has changed dramatically.

The crown prince had no children before his death, and as the eldest daughter of the twin kings, Juana ’s sister Isabella of Aragon has married the king of Portugal, although this was the decision made by the twin kings to win over Portugal, but The couple's monarchs never wanted to see their country annexed by the Portuguese in the future.

So when the eldest daughter was undoubtedly excluded from consideration by the heirs, Juana as the second daughter became the first choice of heirs.

This is of course a good thing for Maximian I. When I decided to marry the couple, I thought that I would always get some advantage regardless of the result, and now the result is even better than he thought.

In Iberia, as the death of Ann continues to grow longer and longer, the call for the king to select a new heir as soon as possible becomes higher and higher. In the end, because there is no son and the sister is not considered, Juana takes the first Heir to succession became the crown prince of Castile.

According to the decision at the time, Juana should have returned to Castilla with her husband Prince Flanders in 1498, but in the winter of this year, something happened Unexpectedly unexpected.

The largest Amsterdam port in the lowland area encountered an unexpected Cypriot port incident in the winter that year. The port transportation was paralyzed due to the blockage of the port terminal by countless ships, which directly caused the cargo from the North Sea to the Atlantic coast to be unblocked through the Amsterdam port This kind of congestion has even continued until the port was closed in winter, which caused the whole Amsterdam to be closed until the spring of March of the following year.

It was in this year that in the inland wetland area not far from Amsterdam, the emergence of a port called Rotterdam replaced the status of Amsterdam, which had been trapped in winter at that time, and the entire lowland area and inland trade were completely blocked That Rotterdam took control.

At the time, Philip was reforming the lowland area. The blockage of the port and the emergence of the new port disrupted his plan for a time. The young duke was keenly aware that there seemed to be some unknown conspiracy, but When he finally found the clues to prepare to take action against the Hanse merchant named Grogening from the north, he found that the man not only got the news early, but he soon realized that it seemed that the entire lowland area was trapped by You An invisible huge force is secretly manipulated.

First, the local chamber of commerce will confront his orders in secret, and then the parliamentary reform, which has already achieved initial results, seems to have encountered great potential. It has decided to temporarily refrain from proposing various autonomy clauses, and the parliament in exchange for tax relief has unexpectedly proposed With the slogan "Gold coins exchanged for nothing," Philip's efforts to exchange interests for peace fell short.

This made Philip have to postpone the time of returning to Castilla with Juana repeatedly. Although he has been urged by his parents more than once, Huanna is still stubbornly unwilling to return alone.

The time was postponed back, and the Swabian War broke out in June 1499, which made Philip, who was already a bit burned, had to postpone the trip again to help his father raise supplies and military expenses.

Castile spent a full two years without a crown prince while waiting. Until the end of 1499, he received news from the lowland area that Juana would return to her hometown with her husband and daughter. And become the crown prince of the kingdom of Castile.

When reporting to the two kings, the messenger also casually told them that they would be grandma and grandma again, because "Her Royal Highness is pregnant again."

When they heard the news, the two kings just showed their joy in a routine manner, and then they considered that with Juana becoming the crown prince, Castile and Aragon should be with their savvy What kind of new relationship does your relatives form?

Neither the grandparents nor the young couples who are future parents will know that this unborn child will unify Castile and Aragon in the future and establish the Kingdom of Spain.

In mid-December 1499, the French army that occupied Genoa took the initiative to attack the Austrian army again after a short break.

The reason why Louis XII would break the usual routine in such a season is because something happened that even he did not expect,

In addition to the end of the century in 1499, the most special thing is that compared with the past, the winter of this year not only came exceptionally early, but also the weather was surprisingly cold. It has slowly emerged, but this year it is not only colder earlier, but also colder. There are heavy snowfalls in many places, and there are even snow disasters in some places.

For France, this year is more troublesome.

As early as the beginning of the year, a large earthquake caused considerable damage to the Loire Valley. Not only was it affected in many places, even the Blois castle where the king was crowned was destroyed, and then Louis XII announced its The use of military orders is not pleasant news for the French. The consequence of turning the French war machine is that people's lives are getting worse.

After entering the winter, the French feel incredible that many places in the north even started to snow in October, and after the end of November, even Paris became a snow-white city.

Heavy snow has brought more and more bad news to "Paris Island", where the heavy snow has already frozen a large number of sheep, and where there has been a famine because of the freeze of the river and the food cannot be delivered, and it is farther away from Paris In places where the news is blocked and the traffic is cut off, the attitudes of some nobles who were quite dissatisfied with the royal family have become blurred.

For reasons of inconvenience of transportation, their messengers sent to Paris were significantly less, and some of these territories even simply temporarily cut off the tax on the rose that should arrive.

However, Louis XII still ordered the recruitment of nobles in the country, preparing to organize an army of about 20,000 people to support Italy, so that the French army can reach an unprecedented 60,000 people. Louis XII believes that this will not only allow him to defeat Maximilian in one fell swoop. Ann I can send an army to Naples again, and even if necessary, he can also compete with Ferdinand, who may compete with him for Naples.

But this time the French were very indifferent to the king's order. When he saw that the army from the homeland was actually less than a quarter of what he requested, and his food supply was far from meeting the requirements, Louis XII Realized the seriousness of the matter.

The purpose of occupying Genoa is to use the port for support, but now he can get so little help, and the combined Austrian army only took the opportunity to occupy Alexandria, which the French have abandoned, but the Austrian army is undoubtedly occupied Active.

Because they controlled most of the granaries and fields in Lombardy, and the French were surrounded with the Genoese in the city.

The nearly 4,000 French army and the entire city's population consumes a huge amount of people every day, which is daunting, and the long-term homesickness outside the country is torturing the Austrian army and is gradually spreading in the French army.

Continue to wait is equivalent to consuming life, and this year's unexpected cold is completely shattered Louis XII was originally prepared to drag the war with the Austrian army into the winter truce, and then forced the Austrians to withdraw from the Italian dream.

In this unfavorable situation, Louis XII finally issued an order. He broke the practice of the winter truce that has been formed for centuries, and launched the first battle of the 1499 winter attack against the Austrian army.

Just as the French launched the winter offensive against the Austrians, in Naples, Alexander was explaining to the puzzling Rosa.

"This year is too cold, so it is impossible for the French to get the supplies they need. At this time, apart from taking the initiative to attack, there is no way for them ..."

"As for the future ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ I believe that such weather will be more and more, and then they can only break those traditional traditions in order to make quick decisions, they will fight in the winter, and they will even fly in the snow. When it comes time to fight, they have no choice, because this long winter will become very long, "Alexander said, looking out, and then murmured in a voice that only he could hear" because this is the Little Ice Age. "

Talking to Alexander, he glanced at a letter that had already been called on the table.

The letter was sent from Castile and it contained information about Juana's upcoming return to Castile.

At the end of the letter, Juana was mentioned to be pregnant again.

"Charlie V of Spain?"

Alexander thought to himself and smiled lightly.
