Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

Obelisk Castle, here is the earliest symbol of Bucharest city.

Since the beginning of the 9th century, different towns and fortresses have been built on this land one after another. As the Orthodox Church gradually established a dominant position on this land, in the southeast of the Balkans, Bucharest-based politics and religion The center also gradually formed.

But in spite of this, Bucharest has not always been a real city. It was the forefront of the Eastern Romans in Europe. They used it as a post to guard against enemies from the interior of Europe. When Bulgaria was separated from the Eastern Roman Empire, Here again became a bridgehead for Hungarians against Slavs.

Even a few decades ago, Bucharest was always a military fortress and heavier than the city, even if the size of the entire city is already comparable to Belgrade or Budapest, but here It still has a military rather than a political and economic significance.

It wasn't until the conqueror Mohammed II came down in the city that Bucharest conquered the world with its enviable great achievements.

Between Bucharest and the Danube, there is a series of shallow wetlands forming beautiful lakes of various sizes and pearls on this plain. Among these lakes, Lake Nionella is the largest and most beautiful.

Whenever spring comes, there will be a large number of shorebirds migrating from afar, whether it is cold northern migratory birds or the vast expanse of Slavic land, large numbers of birds will cross a long way to Bucharest Plain in the Danube Delta, Then build love nests on these lakes and prosper.

So looking out from the Obelisk Castle, you can see the huge flock of birds flying in the sky, and the bird droppings falling from the sky from time to time.

Ladislas II was sitting in the main hall of the castle. Not far away, there were several waterbirds standing on the window sill, making a constant groaning sound, while the pan drifted in from the outside. The air with a weird smell is not good.

Several figures appeared outside the main hall door, and the entourage bowed and saluted one after another, watching the people walk in, and the originally sitting king slowly stood up.

Seeing Patriarch Bucharest, Ladislas II nodded gently as a hello, and then his eyes fell on Cepes's face following the patriarch.

No one can say clearly what the expression on the king's face means at this time, but he still looks calm, and he can't see how angry he is at this time from his face, although as long as he has a little understanding of the inside Everyone knows that the contradiction between the king and Zeppes has reached a point where it is difficult to reconcile.

This is because Zepez not only violated the king ’s order, but also because of his support, Sophia made the Greek nobles in Bucharest completely stand on their side, and with the dispatch of troops to assist Alexander, Zepez has become like this. The second aristocratic leader in the city after Ladislas II.

This is certainly not what Ladislas II hopes to see, but the situation now makes him have to endure this person temporarily.

"Your Majesty, I brought you a guest." Zeppes bowed to the king and then gave way to Alexander to make way.

Looking at the young man with armor in front of him, Ladislas II knew who he was without introduction, but why did Sophia seem to be familiar with him?

The spies that Ladislas II sent to the Cepes army apparently did not get too close, or that those people were more concerned about the movement of the Wallachia and Montina troops on the battlefield, so they did n’t even know What happened after Sophia and Alexander met, naturally no one reported to Ladislas II this scene that surprised the king.

But Ladislas II calmed down quickly. He glanced at the queen next to him, and then took two steps forward with a majestic smile: "Count Montina, the liberation that the Vatican sent us. The savior of the people and the people, let me use a hug to welcome you. "

Speaking of Ladislas II two more steps forward, he almost hurriedly embraced Alexander with open arms before Alexander bowed.

Excited cheers instantly sounded in the hall, and the somewhat suppressed cold atmosphere instantly became hot.

People cheered excitedly, some people were already raising their hands to the Montina officers, and some young maids looked at the soldiers from the west with curious eyes.

For the Balkans, whether from Prague or Budapest courts, or from more distant Rome or Paris, those men have charming charms that are difficult to resist. It is said that because of this, the queen even banned local women from being too close to La Disraise II, because the king who has noble status in the eyes of those women is obviously the incarnation of elegance and charm of the nobility nobles.

But after seeing these soldiers from Rome, the women had to admit that their previous vision seemed a little superficial.

Regardless of clothing or manners, these distant guests all look so glamorous and charming, even if they have just experienced a battle not long ago and then ran nearly dozens of miles, but even these servants People also permeate the exoticism that fascinates them.

Just as the king hugged and loudly applauded everything Montina ’s army had done for Bucharest, the queen had approached Sophia. She reached out and gently grabbed Sophia ’s arm. Although the hard armor made her a little uncomfortable, the queen was still slightly Firmly insist that Sophia follow her side.

In front of the queen, Sophia was very clever. Although she did not want to leave Alexander, she followed the queen a little further.

"Are you worried about you?" The queen whispered. "When Nashan left, let me take care of you, but what you did hurt my heart. You know when I heard that you left the city without permission. How worried? "

Sophia gestured gently, a trace of guilt appeared on her stubborn face, and seemed to be saddened by the Queen's rebuke.

"Your behavior also makes the king very angry, and you don't look like a princess at all now."

Speaking of the Queen's helplessness here, no one can tell how the rumours about the Greek princess spread. Although there have been too many legends about the "Greece Princess" over the years, and there will be Different women either took the initiative or were used to stand up and claim to be the last descendants of the Baleola family, but the ending is often that it will not be long before it will be exposed as a complete fake.

But this time is different from the past. The descendants of Valleora, the forgotten princess from Greece, and the magical experience of drifting from the Crete to avoid war, all of which make Sofia the closest to the real. Greek princess.

And the queen knows that of course there is a shadow of Ladislas II behind it. Out of ambitions in the Balkans, Ladislas II needs to have such a noble identity, and he is more obedient to him. "Greece Princess".

Only now, things seem to have changed.

Although Ladislas II was always talking to Alexander, his eyes never left Sophia. When he saw the queen and Sophia whispering, he hugged Alexander again and then pulled him to his throne. .

"Today you should sit in that chair with me, because your bravery gave us hope." Ladislas II said to the throne. "Count, you proved one thing to all of us. That is, just like when we faced Muhammad the Conqueror, God still did not abandon us. "

The king's words made the nobles in the hall whisper. They already knew that the king had ordered the most solemn etiquette to welcome the roman aristocrat from afar, but they still did not expect the king to evaluate the Earl of Montina. It's so high.

And Ladislas II continued without even waiting for Alexander to say: "Count, your bravery even made our princess show extraordinary courage. This is a miracle witnessed by all of us. Let us Cheers for Princess Sophia Alexandra Valleola! "

The king's last sentence suddenly raised his voice. His voice was high, and his hands raised high appeared extremely striking among the crowd.

Everyone cheered again, and this time people's eyes on Sophia became full of meaning.

In this hall, no one did not know that Sophia had openly disobeyed the king ’s orders, and it was precisely because of this that when the Greek nobles decided to support Sophia, Bucharest made a lot of waves.

Many people worry that there may be a disturbance in the city, and may even cause a civil war. If this is the case, the Bucharest people will really face the disaster.

Now the king actively expressed public appreciation and support for Sophia's behavior in the face of so many people, which made people secretly wonder why the king suddenly changed his attitude at the same time, he could not help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

In particular, the Patriarch of Bucharest seemed to be a little difficult to hold himself because of the excitement. He looked at Sophia who was holding her hand in front of him, and stretched out her hand to gently appease and whispered on the forehead where Sophia had taken off her helmet. Together with the queen, accompanied Sophia to Ladislas II.

"My boy, I always wanted to see you now, but when you really made a decision, I was taken aback," Ladislas II kissed Sophia's forehead like the queen. Then I looked back at my throne. "I was wrong. I was sitting here with three people. This includes you, Sophia, the princess of Greece, and the last descendant of the Eastern Roman Empire."

The king's words again caused a soft whisper in the hall. People looked at Ladislas II in surprise. Many people could not help but secretly speculate what the intention of the king's words was.

Since coming in, Alexander, who has been performing by Ladislas II and has no chance to speak, also accidentally glanced at the King of Bohemia. What is this for?

Obviously, the king ’s position is like publicly recognizing Sophia ’s inheritance of Greece and the Balkans that were once affiliated with the Eastern Roman Empire. Although this inheritance is so cheap in front of artillery and sabers, its far-reaching significance still remains It cannot be ignored.

Zepes has been standing beside him looking coldly. He knows that no matter how magnanimous he is, the rift between Koradis II and him has been irreparable, so his only way is to try to The Earl of Montina formed a favorable alliance.

It ’s just that the goodwill that the king suddenly showed to Alexander made Zepes a little uneasy. He did n’t know what to do about the Alexander Conference. Although it seemed that the special relationship with Sophia made it convenient for them to become natural allies, Zepes did not think This person will not hesitate to choose to be on his side just because of this.

So while watching the king's intimacy with Alexander, Zeppes wondered what he should do to envelop this powerful reinforcement, and then he heard what Ladislas II said to Sophia.

Zepez's expression instantly turned pale, his cheeks trembled slightly, and his upturned beard jumped gently because of the trembling of his lips.

Ladislas II noticed the change in Zepez ’s look, but he ignored it, but loudly ordered the two chairs that had been prepared long ago to move, and in the hall, the nobles issued a rhythmic "huhayo" "In the cheers, he pulled Alexander and Sophia with both hands, and slowly walked to the three foot chairs placed side by side.

Looking at the three people sitting in the chairs, Zepes sullenly.

He didn't expect that Ladislas II would break the advantage he had worked so hard for so easily.

If it is said that showing favor to Alexandria may just be a simple draw, but with regard to Sophia's attitude, Zepes is truly aware of the power of Ladislas II.

No matter how many people believe, the title of "Greece Princess" has become an indelible aura on Sophia ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ It can even be said that the Ottoman expedition was triggered by the appearance of Sophia.

It's just that even though the legend of the Greek princess has spread throughout the Balkans, no one has ever publicly recognized Sophia's identity on such an important occasion.

Now, Ladislas II suddenly and publicly announced the establishment of Sophia's identity as the "last descendant of the Eastern Roman Empire." Zeppes knew that this was Ladislas II's counterattack!

Zeppes couldn't help but admit that the king's hand not only caught him by surprise, but also completely wiped out everything he had done before.

And Alexander, who was sitting in his chair, looked at the boisterous King Bohemian next to him, and couldn't help thinking of the words "this city is not friendly to some people" that Zeppes told him before entering the city.

This city is not so friendly, both in and out of town.

Alexander felt at this time that he seemed to have entered a "siege".
