Chapter 67

The others withdrew from the room. Charles took out a secret letter and presented it to the king: "from adobe."

Audobi, a country close to Blaise, the queen of King audobi was the cousin of Ferri III.

The king understood that this letter should have come from Blaise.

The "ally" from Legrand, ferry III.

The King opened the letter and read it quickly.

The letter is divided into two parts, one by Philip III himself, and the other, apparently by Blaise's overseas agents - information on the movements of lowland countries across the sea from Legrand.

Lowland countries.

The king frowned slightly. He got up and went to the map of "cloth of the world" hanging in the room.

In the north of Blaise, there are more than ten small countries, such as hull and kalilan, which are collectively referred to as "lowland countries". They are separated from the northern part of Legrand, but there has been no dispute between the two sides.

Ferri III is not a fool. He will not do useless things at such a moment.

"What are you looking at?"

Charles got up, went behind the king, and examined the map hanging on the wall with him.

"What do you know about lowland countries?" Asked the king, thinking.

Charles turned his eyes to the dozen small countries and shook his head slightly doubtfully: "if you mean the lowland countries before the 12th century, they once had great strength after they were completely occupied by the sea barbarians. But today's lowland countries have declined, and they have not participated in any major events on any continent for as long as three centuries. "

As Charles said, lowland countries have been very low-key for hundreds of years.

Perhaps because they know that they are weak, they only focus on the development of maritime commerce, and try to avoid any major political disputes. It seems that they try their best to build themselves into a "sailing boat" that can stand aloof from the world. For this reason, they even endured the relatively high customs duties of Legrand, Blaise and many other countries.

What we pay so much for is that although the lowland countries are weak militarily, they still rely on commercial transportation to gain survival space.

"Not fighting with the world?"

The king shook his head slowly.

He returned to his desk, quickly spread out his letter, picked up his pen, and wrote to the Duke of Buckingham in the Rose Palace.

Across the abyss channel, Legrand's perception of the lowland countries is absolutely inferior to that of Blaise, who is close to the lowland countries. If the king does not get it wrong, in return for Legrand's informing him of the fatal pitfalls of the coronation ceremony, the meaning of ferry III's letter is to warn Legrand:

beware of the lowland countries, who also participated in the brewing upheaval.

"Let our overseas agents be careful." The king also said to Charles.

"You don't like Blaise?"

Charles noticed that.

"Yes." Instead of answering this question directly, the king asked Charles, "what do you think of our council chairman?"

Chairman of the City Council of kosiya.

Just now, one of the city officials came to report the New Year celebration to the king.

Charles recalled that he had to deal with many officials along the coast at this stage, and he also heard about this high-ranking official in kosiya city. Generally speaking, he was a city official with more young lovers, mediocre in all aspects, not outstanding and not too bad.

But at this time, being mentioned by the king would not be a good thing.

"Our mediocre gentleman is not mediocre at all." The king said with a kind of praise and a smile, "his lovers have a very good relationship with the priests. This broad mind is beyond the ordinary gentleman."

"What do you mean?"

"It's difficult for him to manage the complicated affairs, and at the same time, to try every means to send the secret letter to the bishop of the monastery."

With a smile, the king seemed to praise the chairman sincerely.

But Charles understood that the king had killed him.

Charles had a little emotion.

Before the vagrant painter Mr. Grack came in, the king talked with the city officials as usual. Although he was dignified, he was not fierce. Even he didn't notice anything unusual. I'm afraid that Mr. municipal councilor never thought that when he thought he was hiding something from the world, the king had set a date for his death in his heart.

The king looked at Charles and said, "in Legrand, in Causeway, where I came, some people accepted the branches from the Holy See, not to mention Blaise in the shadow of the Holy See?"

There was a slight mockery in his tone.

The Holy See of the world will only be stronger.

Because -

the "God" in this world really exists.

This black death, the king himself can use the power of hell to enhance the glory of the royal power. But similarly, the Holy See was able to use its extraordinary power to consolidate its position in the black death. In Ferri III's letter, it was pointed out that the Pope and his party had cured the black death patients and won the support of the great nobles.The power of the holy see in this world is more stable and stronger because of the real existence of the "holy mark".

"Tell our spies, gentlemen, to be alert to the faction of Ferri III with whom they come into contact."

The king gave an order.

Charles understood what the king meant, and he accepted the king's order in silence.

The ghost ship is true, the hell is true, and the God's eyes on the earth are true For thousands of years, human beings have been struggling under the shackles and living under the shackles.

However, some people do not want to live under such surveillance and accept such fate.

So in this long history, the rose family generation after generation, blood stained the earth. What they want is that human beings will no longer be the lambs and slaves of gods.

The king was silent for a moment: "recruit sailors, the blockade cannot be relaxed."

A cartani chose the Vatican, which brought a great plague to Legrand.

But at this time, there were so many plagues on the sea that the king did not think that the Holy See would be limited to a great plague. The coastline is long, there are always weak places. Even if the target of the first great plague was not a big port city like kosiya, the Holy See could drive some ordinary fleet to "send plague" to Legrand.

If he is the Holy See, then he will not use this low-cost means that can cause great damage to the enemy only once.

It's a conspiracy.

Next, there must be ships trying to bring the plague to Legrand.

The king's garrison in Southeast China is also in response to this.

"When the epidemic ships are active, they will take action."

Said the king calmly.

At this moment, kosiya's bell rang, the bell was loud.

Charles looked out of the window: "it's almost a new year."

"A new year."

The king looked out of the window, too.

In the last days of 1432, the sun was shining over the port mall.

Heavy snow, in this city, most people celebrate a disaster has just passed, full of joy waiting for the new year. They have no idea what kind of undercurrent is surging, let alone what kind of raging waves are about to break out.

These waves, in today's, will only press on a small number of people who see it.

"When our court painter wakes up, let him draw a picture."

Suddenly the king spoke.

"What do you want him to draw?"

Charles is a little curious. He became the king of Legrand from birth. Naturally, he received the most outstanding education. Most monarchs have good cultivation in all aspects. But the king has always been more concerned with drama than painting.

"The plague night of kossia."

Answered the king.

He wanted everyone to remember the dead cavalry, the brave pirates who were buried in the sea.

Charles was stunned. He turned his head and looked at the king and his city, which was still in the room - no doubt an outstanding painting that would be remembered. He didn't know what the "light of literature" in the king's words meant, but at this time he understood what the king's action meant.

If so, this is the dawn of literature and art.

Then the king did not want to let the light focus on himself, but to let the glory fall on those who sleep on the ground.

How many monarchs will remember the soldiers who died for themselves?

In the war, the most worthless thing is human life. If the dead soldiers are not noble, they will be paid a little pension. All along, people think so and accept it.

They will be remembered.

That night, where the pirates buried their bones, the king promised.

He believed it.

And the king didn't feel ashamed to believe him.

Charles laughed.

He thought that he had been able to see the scene in which the will of the crown referred to the direction of the cavalry.

"People will envy Legrand."

He said softly.

The king looked at him with a little surprise.

Charles just grinned mildly without explanation.

-- envy Legrand for having such a monarch.

………………

When the king sent a letter to remind the Duke of Buckingham to pay attention to the lowlands, Legrand north.

Newcastle.

The panic caused by the black death did not affect here. After getting the rich iron and wood resources from angel, the king ordered to build a military castle here last year, and the progress was much faster than before.

After the rejection of asking for more money from the king, James, the architect of the castle, wrote to the king with "the passion of writing to his little lover".The first half of each letter is a detailed explanation of the new idea of his military castle, and the second half of each letter is the same - asking the king for more money.

The commander stationed here suddenly twitched when he saw James's letter.

He felt that the king did not match the rumor.

James was so bold as to ask the king for money every day, but the king made him live to this day. How could a tyrant be so tolerant.

Anyway, since the "war maniac attribute" was lit up, the commander was surprised at the original church designer This guy not only squatted on the platform every day to figure out how to improve his archery hole, but also urged him to ask the king to build a batch of crossbows privately

The commander had to wonder whether he was a soldier or whether this guy was a soldier?

And the King actually agreed to build a number of banned crossbows for Newcastle.

However, it is obvious that building a batch of crossbows is not something that can be completed in a short time. Therefore, the commander has been hiding from James almost every day since then, for fear that this guy will make him spit out a batch of crossbows as soon as he meets him.

"Don't you think it's a little strange?"

On this day, the commander carefully bypassed the place where James often haunted, and was preparing to have a drink of liquor when a faint voice came from behind.

He nearly spewed out a mouthful of wine. As soon as he turned his head, James stood behind him with a stubby beard and dark eyes. He didn't know he had been sleeping for several days.

"You, you, you..." The commander drew the corner of his mouth and finally said helplessly, "what's wrong?"

"The transport team hasn't arrived yet."

"It's snowing, my dear designer!" Commander full of bitterness, "these two days, you have asked hundreds of times! Listen to me, and let the poor craftsmen have a rest
