Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

Vol 7 Chapter 21: Pretty Philip

The Duke of Vienna, Philip, was the beloved son of Emperor Maximian. If all goes well, it may one day become the emperor of the Holy Roman Empire.

In addition to this distinguished identity, Philip's nickname made many people misunderstand him somewhat.

"Pretty Philip" is what people call him. It is because of this nickname that, in the heart of many people, Philip is actually regarded as a young boy with a distinguished background, even in Castile, he was accompanied by Juana When I saw this young and handsome duke when I was on this land, many people directly stamped him with the princess who had charmed their princess purely by a face and had nothing to do with it.

Only Alexander did not forget that the prince was obviously not so easy to deal with.

Philip was appointed Governor of the Lowlands in Flanders by his father Maximian a few years ago.

Speaking of the lowlands, that place had very unpleasant memories for Maximian. He had been there for a while to solve some tax payment problems of local businessmen. Some of his words and deeds were dissatisfied by the locals. In order to escape the embarrassment, he had to hide in a businessman ’s house to take refuge until his father was sent to the army to rescue him.

Even so, he had to promise the local people a series of conditions that seemed completely decent and unrecognizable to him before he temporarily quelled the trouble that was not a riot, but absolutely shameful enough.

So for the lowland area, although always coveting the market driven by the strong business atmosphere there, Maximian directly reached those lowland people who were not so good to deal with.

Philip, after arriving in the lowland area, unexpectedly made quite a difference. He carried out a series of reforms in the local area that may not be liked by the nobles of Vienna, but were very popular in the local area, even under the auspices of Philip, Fran Des passed the first expressly prescribed commercial law.

This series of actions is enough to allow Alexander to attach great importance to this beautiful Philip, not to mention that he is the husband of Juana, the father of the future Holy Roman Emperor Charles V, just these identities are enough to make Alexander treat him. Very valued.

Therefore, before coming, Alexander told Normezi more than once that he should not despise the young prince with a beautiful face, nor be deceived by his beautiful angel-like appearance, thinking that he was just eating by the face And the dude who confuses the woman.

This duke is not simple.

But Normezi did not expect to be asked such a difficult question when he first saw Philip.

Normezi had never seen Grogening, and he did n’t even know what kind of deal there was between Grogening and Alexander, but he knew this person, and he knew where he was now, because he had been riding by Grogening. Siberian merchant ship arrived in Iberia.

Although it is not clear how deep the relationship between Grogning and Alexandria, Normezi knew that the lowland businessman was a partner of Alexander, because now Grogning has completely replaced Alexander after leaving Sicily with Sicily. The co-operation of the governor Camille.

During this time, with Sicily as a transit point, Grogening carefully managed his business on the east coast of the Mediterranean, including those that had been established between the Egyptian Mamluks and eventually led to Persia. Long traffic line.

It looks like this man is a lucky businessman from the north, but Normezi knows that he has something to do with Alexandria, because on the way to Castile, he has already met with one of Grogening's men on the ship, The man was a sailor. In the secret letter that the man brought to him, he saw some secrets that only he and Alexander knew. This made him know that Normezi, at least the relationship between the lowland businessman and the Duke .

Suddenly I heard Philip ask Grogning. He did n’t know what to answer, and he recalled that Normezi suddenly remembered the vaguely heard about the fact that there is indeed some kind of connection between Alexander and the lowlands. , It is even more appropriate that he does not know how to respond to Philip.

"Which Grognine are you talking about? You know that this surname is common in some places, such as Flanders. I do n’t know if you are talking to someone who is known by the Duke of Rome Tesia, or They may just belong to a huge family, "Normezi replied casually, seeing Philip keep staring at him, just as he was about to say a few words to try to fool around, but Juana sitting beside Isabella Suddenly exclaimed!

The shout suddenly attracted everyone's attention. Queen Isabella couldn't help looking at her and stood on the throne, and Philip, who had been waiting for Normezi to answer, turned his head and looked at his wife in surprise.

Juana seemed to stand up in a panic. She first ran two steps forward, and then remembered what she turned and bowed to her mother in a hurry: "I'm sorry, my mother, I suddenly remembered that I hadn't breastfeeded Charlie. I had to take care of me. Son now. "

After she finished, she trot all the way through the small door and ran towards a corridor under the astonishment of all the courtiers around her.

Normezi was stunned by Juana ’s unexpected behavior. He stood there embarrassed because he did n’t know what happened, but his heart was indifferent to Juana ’s interruption of Philip ’s questioning of him at this time. Took a breath.

"What can I say about it? Maybe I can only express her gratification for her love for the child, after all, it may be the future emperor." Queen Isabella extricated her daughter with some self-deprecating tone, and then she looked again Philip standing aside "I think you must have spoiled her in the court of Flanders. You must know that I have always given her the strictest education."

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I think this is indeed my responsibility, but because I love my wife so much, I can't bear to restrain her."

Philip found a step for the mother-in-law very interesting, but then his inquiry to Normezi was naturally interrupted and could not continue. Although he still had some doubts in Normezi's eyes, he was immediately followed by Other things attracted attention.

Normez ’s admiration ended in advance due to an unexpected move by Juana. When he retired, he stood on the open space outside the court. Normez looked back at this renewed, apparently after a lot of riots not long ago. The repaired palace couldn't help but fall into contemplation.

He touched the golden mask on his face, and Queen Isabella also cared about what happened to his face when he met him. His answer was in the previous battle against the Regent Queen Lao Sha. The gun was shot.

But the kind of deep-seated pain that can be felt by touching the mask reminds him of what his ruined face is for.

"Sir, you're here." Alonso Bellugut hurried over from a distance. He wore a small servant costume that Normezi made him sew, and it looked like a very Lively waitress "Are you going back?"

"Yes, today's task is completed." Normezi glanced toward the court again, and whispered in his mouth, he had already seen the person he wanted to see in Valladolid this time, but some To his surprise, that person didn't seem to deal so well.

Normezi ’s residence in Valladolid was the second floor of Alonso Berruget ’s house. Alonso ’s parents packed up the house and asked the count to live in.

Normezi ’s reason for coming to Castile this time was diplomacy, but before meeting with some nobles in the court, he had already hinted to those people about his embarrassing situation in Naples, although he was pardoned by the regent queen , And it got used soon, but the queen obviously did not trust him, so it was not long before he found an excuse to send him to Montina, and the Roman Duke of Tethys obviously had a lot of him. Be wary, so simply let him go to Lombardy to deal with the French.

Afterwards, when the errand in Lombardy was also completed, perhaps because he was doing quite well, he finally gained a little bit of love from the Duke, so after the Duke left him for some time, he finally seemed to be kind and kind. He was released as if to send Castilian.

This is Normezi's own experience to others. These sounds are obviously not lies. The important thing is that his experiences are indeed true.

In the eyes of the Castilians, Normezi is obviously a bad luck, because he was ostracized by the cold in the palace, and he was actually cast out in the court of Castilla. They think Normezi is lucky. At least in Castilla, if any minister becomes the king of the two kings, there will not necessarily be the luck of Normezi.

Alonso Bellugut originally lived and stayed, and now his room is next to Normezi, in order to listen to the Count Lord ’s greetings at any time.

The Belugat husband and wife care about whether they are satisfied with the count's services. The woman hopes to get more money, and the man hopes that the count will bring his son to Rome.

Alonso ’s room was very small, just beside the staircase. Apart from a small bed, there were a lot of messes. When Normezi passed by and wanted to return to his house, he saw the room with the door open When there were a lot of bits and pieces on the ground, he suddenly moved his heart.

"Alonso, did you sculpt these things?" Normezi picked up a large piece of wood that had been carved and looked at it. Although the knife skills might be a little rusty, he could still see that it was a horse. , And a knight on the horse seems to have begun to take shape.

There was a trace of panic on Alonso Bellugut's face. He stood sideways and whispered apologetically: "Yes, please forgive me for not carving this kind of thing again."

"No, it looks interesting." Normezi smiled. He noticed that the pile of wood on the ground was actually a pile of knights and soldiers, but some of these wood dolls were already carved, but some were still fuzzy. profile.

"You are a very smart child, but can you sculpt something that younger children like, I mean wood toys that only a few years old girls like?" Normezi asked.

"I don't know, but some of my brother's toys were made by me when I was little, but now they are bigger." Alonso replied in a daze.

"That's fine. Listen, you don't have to do anything from now on. Just find a way to sculpt some gadgets that children will like. It's best," Normezi thought and continued. "I can do it in me Carved before the next visit. "

Alonso Bellugut nodded somewhat blankly. Although he didn't know what Lord Earl wanted to do with such a child's toy, it made him very happy.

Alonso really likes painting, but he also likes to sculpt things. Now I heard that the Earl actually supported him to do these things he likes, which made Alonso unable to express his joy for a while.

Just when Normez instructed Alonso Berrugte to carve those small toys, in the palace, Philip, Duke of Vienna, was listening to the report of his men.

"That's it. The Count Normezi now lives in a miller's house, and it is said that he hasn't interacted with anyone else other than visiting some nobles these days." A man reported to Philip respectfully, and he said a little Strangely asked, "But why are you interested in the count?"

"Because he came from the Duke of Rome Tesia," Philip said helplessly. "You know what happened in Flanders made my father very upset. He disapproved of my move from the beginning, and then I The troubles and failures in Amsterdam have also become evidence that the nobles of the Vienna court slander me in front of him, so I need something to prove myself, that Groningen is the culprit of all this, I must find he."

"Your Highness, you do n’t have to worry, and you do n’t have to worry. You know that you are the Duke of Vienna, which means that you are destined to become the Grand Duke of Austria, or even the emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, and then no one can doubt you have done Things that happened ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ You just need to be patient now. "

Listening to the entourage, Philip, who was short of breath because of some emotion, slowly calmed down. He took the cup on the table and poured a sip of wine into his mouth.

"But I still want to know where that Grogning is. He wants me to lose a lot of people. This despicable lowland merchant not only robbed me enough gold coins, but also caused me A lot of trouble, what I want to see is that he was hanged on the dock in Amsterdam. "

"But you know, Your Highness, even if you catch him, you have no right to execute him in accordance with the laws of the Lowlands. You can only give him to the court," the follower shook his head helplessly. Their people, you are really kind to them.

"It's different this time," Philip said angrily. "I must punish him, and as long as I catch him, I can get enough evidence, and then those lowland judges will not want to protect him again."

Philip said to the entourage: "So stare at the count of Julipe, after all, that Groningen and Naples seem to have a close relationship. He is our chance and hope to find that person."
