Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

Vol 4 Chapter 108: Lowland past

Mrs. Olgala smiled lightly at a lady across from her, while her eyes lightly flicked the two people not far away.

Grogning stood calmly in front of Alexander, even though he was not calm at all.

When he first saw this young man in Naples, he felt like he looked down at this man like an Eastern monarch.

He is young, looks very ambitious, but has no backing to rely on. Although there is a relative who is hot in Naples, in the eyes of many people, he is just an illegitimate child with no future.

The bohemian girl is very beautiful. Although she can't speak, she has a fascinating wild beauty. This once fascinated Groningen. He even thought about keeping that girl beside him.

But the Lowlanders obviously have a more ambitious ideal. In his eyes, the girl can be a useful tool for making bigger people in the future, and when he discovered the relationship between the young man who suddenly emerged in Naples and the girl, Grogen was more than anything They did not hesitate to fulfill them.

But even so, Grogening always just regarded the young man in front of him as a **** in the future.

But now, the Lowlanders cannot help but admit that he was mistaken before. This young man is no longer a **** he thinks is still useful, but a character who not only surprised him, but also had some awe.

"Count, I have received your invitation through Mrs. Olgala." Grogening supported the body with a cane. One of his shoulders could only be leaned on as much as possible because of the inability to use force. The cane that is always inseparable from him Knocked on the stone floor and made a bang.

"Yes, I also remember that you once wanted to meet me through Mrs. Olgala, but at that time I rejected you," seeing Grogening was not annoyed by his words, Alexander was somewhat admired by this person. Temper, but he knew that the attitude of the Lowlanders would be so good, it should be entirely because he is now in need of help. "I didn't respond to you at that time, because the timing was not right."

Hearing the meaning in Alexander's words, Grognin's face showed a little interest: "Count, do you mean that it is the right time?"

Alexander nodded slightly, and since he decided to meet this person, he had nothing to hide.

"I have a guest here that you might be interested in. I think you can meet and have a good talk."

Alexander finished leading Grogening to the outside of the hall. When they entered the small living room through the short corridor, he heard Grogning's cane in his hand and gave a slight pause on the ground.

"This is the esteemed empire of the empire, Kottschacher of Harzburg, I think you must know," Alexander looked at the arrogant standing in the hall and looked at the appearance of Groningen. "And this Bit ... "

"Hubert Van Groningen, a humble and ordinary businessman, is willing to serve you adults." Grogening bowed to Kotzach.

"Count, are you just going to let me see this person?" Kotszach looked at Grogening with his eyes shining brightly. "Grogning, I have heard of this surname, a low-lying merchant family with a lot of money, but also rich. It ’s very dangerous. People in your family have participated in riots against the emperor. "

"Sir, it was just a protest and an invitation," Grogning said quietly. "We elected a group of representatives to ask the emperor to listen to our request, but Your Majesty rejected our little request."

"So you besieged the emperor and even blocked him in a small hotel until the Duke of Austria sent someone to rescue the emperor," Kotzach interrupted Grogening. "You are a group of robbers and gangsters, if not in Rome, this is not Palazzo Marino, I will order people to arrest you immediately. "

Kotschahe waved to Alexander while saying: "Count, I think I have to leave. I can't tolerate myself in the same room with such a person."

Miyazaki said while pushing away Grogning in front of him, and walked out the door.

"Waiting here."

Alexander whispered and walked quickly behind the palace, facing the door, leaving Grognin standing still in the middle of the living room, holding his cane firmly.

Walked out of the living room and did not leave far away. Hearing the sound of Alexander behind him slowed down, and turned to look at him.

"I do n’t know what you ’re going to do, count, but is it really necessary to get a lowlander into our business, do you think that one person can do anything for our plan," Kotzchah waved his hand Stop Alexander, who is going to speak, and continue to say, "I know that the lowlanders are very smart, and some of them are good businessmen, especially because they have the effect of making many people jealous in the Hanseatic League, but don't forget them It was just a group of businessmen who started to oppose the emperor, but once the emperor's son became their governor, they immediately obeyed like a flock. "

Alexander listened to Kotzach, and he noticed that when he talked about the emperor's son, although the cover was good, he still vaguely heard the difference.

Alexander knew that the son of the emperor mentioned by Miyazaki was the husband of Juana, the daughter of Isabela, the queen of Castilla, who was quite famous and beautiful.

Compared with many current monarchs, the Emperor Emperor Maximian has unusually strong fertility. The Holy Roman Emperor from the Austrian court has carefully crafted a huge network of in-laws with his children. Children are assigned to their respective territories.

This is how beautiful Philip was pushed to the throne of the Duke of Burgundy and the Netherlands by his father.

Lowland merchants opposed Maximian, but they welcomed Philip, the ruler of the Netherlands, which was nothing new for the well-informed Romans.

Now looking at Kotzach seems a little bit excited, Alexander is a bit strange why this palace phase responded so much.

"Those Netherlands are very cunning counts, you have to be careful with them," Kotzach seems to have searched for some wording before saying, "Can you imagine them even trying to stir up the relationship between the emperor's father and son, but they are In doing so, they even encouraged the son of the emperor to tamper with the decree of the Empire against the Netherlands. Do you think such a person can be our partner? "

Alexander was slightly taken aback. Gong Xiang's words reminded him vaguely of the news that Philip had carried out certain reforms in the Netherlands. Although the news may not sound so reliable, but because this Philip is Issa Queen Bella's son-in-law, Alexander, has never forgotten.

Now listening to Kotzach, he can't help but feel a little strange.

He knew that Kottschacher should have sought some help in Naples, or that he was looking for an ally for their lowlands, but since they can all affect Philip, who was the regent of the Netherlands, why should he bother It's a waste of time.

But there was obviously no time for him to think about it at this time. He sent Kotzach to the door and watched the carriage disappear in the distance. Alexander just turned around and saw Mrs. Olgala standing not far behind.

"Ma'am, you may be disappointed," Alexander walked over and saw the obvious sadness in Mrs. Olgala's eyes. He shook his head gently. "It seems that the palace is not completely fascinated by your charm. You should see that he is very unhappy."

"He's an arrogant idiot." Mrs. Olgala showed a rare look of anger, but Alexander couldn't help but admit that even the angry lady still exuded a seductive atmosphere, which made him feel It was wrong to say that she was not attractive enough.

"Or it is because there was nothing that could make him change his mind," Alexander whispered. Although he was unclear why Kotzach was overly emotional, he knew that Miyazaki's plan for him was obviously very emotional. Even when he was scolding Groningen just now, he did not throw away the plan, but took it away.

Perhaps, Gong was right about the lowland merchants involved, or something else?

Alexander was too late to think about it. He accompanied Mrs. Olgala back to the hall. After seeing Grogning still standing alone in the hall, Mrs. Olgala walked over and gently supported Grogening's arm Go to the chair.

"I don't think I came at the right time," Grogening grinned reluctantly at Alexander. "Beard. I should use another identity. Maybe it's better to be a businessman of the Hanseatic League than the Dutch." Are better. "

"What the **** is going on," Alexander's face sank slightly. He felt that the good mood at the beginning of the day had destroyed these consecutive guests. Although he needs the help of these people, if these people like to give If he is in trouble, he will not be too kind to them. "Tell me why you were going to Naples. Who are you looking for or what do you need? You have to know that no matter what you try, you have to let me know if it is worth it."

"Count, you are Sicilian, I mean Sicily."

Alexander nodded, he knew that Groningen should have known it from Sophia.

"Then I want to know if you are loyal to your king, I am talking about Ferdinand of Aragon."

Alexander looked at Grogning. He felt that this answer seemed to be very important to Grogning. After thinking about it, Alexander said: "I am now Earl of Montina. I do n’t know if this answer will satisfy you. . "

Grogenning froze for a moment. He didn't seem to expect that Alexander had said such a plausible thing, but if he thought about it carefully, he seemed to have answered his answer.

But despite this, Grogning felt that he had already received the answer he needed.

"Count, in fact the palace is understandably hostile to me or to the Dutch."

Grogening carefully said that he had always been so careful, because he knew that a little carelessness might be a terrible disaster.

"As a very important part of the Hanseatic League, the Dutch have not only created countless wealth for the alliance, but also made extraordinary contributions and sacrifices for the rise and fall of the alliance at some critical moments. There are not many people asking, we only hope to get everything that belongs to us. "

Grogning said while paying attention to the look on Alexander ’s face, and found that he did not show anything strange, the Lowlanders continued to say: "We have begged, and we asked Maximian, who was then the Grand Duke of Austria, to ask them to be able to Recognizing our rights, but what we got was rough rejection and subsequent brutal suppression. The lowlander was severely punished. The Grand Duke imposed heavy taxes on the Netherlands and even sent troops to expel all areas of the Netherlands. Senator, this is the most serious humiliation. We tried to protest, but we were suppressed by the mob. At that time, you could not imagine that many people had even lost hope until the emperor sent his son. As the governor of the Netherlands. "

Hearing this, Alexander, who always plays a qualified listener, finally moved. He first raised his hand slightly to stop Grogning, and then he was a little uncertain and asked, "Wait a minute, do you want to tell me that the beautiful you are trying to incite Philip against his father? "

Looked at Alexander, Grogning paused, then nodded.

"It's really like this," even guessing that Alexander was a little surprised and looked at the opposite Dutchman curiously. "You actually want to provoke that Philip against his father, what promise do you give him, Grand Duke of Netherlands?"

"Is the King of Germany."

Grogening said slowly, and then with his satisfaction, he saw Alexander's stunned expression.

For a while, Alexander had to admit that although he knew what the lowlanders were doing, he did not know enough about the great ambitions of these Dutch people,

Or should be said, he underestimated the ambition of the entire Hanseatic League.

Apparently, the Hanseatic League intends to put a lot of money on the Dutch regent, and then push him to the throne of the German princes.

"But what made you change your mind," Alexander recalled. He first appeared in Naples from Grogening, then sent Olgala to Rome, and then heard that he had gone to the East and saw these signs. " I heard that Philippe is still very respected in the Netherlands. Although this may lead to conflicts with his father, it is only good for you. Tell me what makes you think he is unreliable? "

Alexander's inquiry made the atmosphere in the room suddenly tighten, and Mrs. Olgala secretly tightened the lining of the decorative sleeve cage ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ Her gray eyes looked at Grogning nervously, as if it were Persuaded him not to say it, but her suggestion was obviously useless. She noticed Grogning's collapsed shoulder and picked it up.

Just when Mrs. Olgala could n’t help but stop, Grogening said: “In fact, we found that not only did we not get the support of Philip, on the contrary, we may soon have a worse group of rulers Now. "

Looking at Grogening's expression of frustration and disappointment, Alexander pondered a little and realized.

Just over a year ago, Maximian ’s beautiful son Philip married Juana.

And this is really not good news for the Dutch.

Whether Philip ’s father Maximian or Juana ’s parents Ferdinand and Isabella are just brutal and merciless terms for the Lowlanders.

Even if compared, maybe Maximian is better than those two.

For the Dutch, there is such a group of rulers, and may even be descendants of these people as rulers in the future. How can they bear it?

Thinking of this, Alexander's eyes changed slightly, looking at the depressed businessman in the Netherlands before him, he suddenly wanted to say to the lowland people: "You are lucky, because you met me." ...
