Chapter 362： Stirring Spain

After Marin left, Julius II thought for a long time. Although Marin was dissatisfied with Julius II everywhere, one thing Marin was right about was that all this was ultimately his own grandson, Caesar.

England is not a small country, it is bigger than Portugal (only counts the area of ​​England) and has a population of 3 million. If according to Marin ’s plan, Caesar would be granted the British co-rule in the future, just as Ferdinand II did to the Kingdom of Castile.

Moreover, Marin's concerns are not unreasonable. If Catherine of Aragon, in accordance with the plan of Henry VII, married Prince Henry, Spain, the dual power of land and sea, would become the supporting arm of the British Tudor dynasty. By that time, Edward of the York family would have a very difficult time trying to restore the York dynasty. Because, the Spanish king and his wife will definitely help their son-in-law.

Therefore, taking this opportunity to break up the alliance between England and Spain is indeed the correct approach. However, Julius II was not optimistic about Marin's success this time.

Because the marriage between England and Spain is very politically purposeful. Even if Princess Catherine is wronged, in order to take care of the overall situation, the Ferdinand II couple will likely choose to compromise, as long as Henry VII gives them a step down. While Henry VII was in a difficult position at this time, he obviously would not be willing to give up the powerful ally of Spain. Therefore, Henry VII bowed his head and apologized for sure. In this matter, Ferdinand II gained face, and with strategic needs, he could only continue to grieve Princess Catherine.

Julius II called Marin, and analyzed it to Marin. After listening to Marin, there was a long silence. Finally, Marin looked up and said:

"It's simple for me to think, Giuliano, you said, if I send someone to spread this news in Spain, will it affect the decision of the Spanish royal family?"

Julius II thought about it and said:

"If it spreads widely, it should be possible. Especially when Prince Henry killed the prince at the age of 11, you must focus on propaganda. However, you have to think about it. You will send someone to Spain to propagate, and eventually it will show It's clueless. If it was discovered by the Spaniards, you would be treated as an enemy ... "

"This is also ..." Marin was distressed. Spreading news is different from asking for news. To inquire about the news, as long as it is done quietly, it is difficult to be discovered. And to spread the news, his men need to publicize in public, and it is easy to be traced and found traces. Moreover, Marin's men understand Spanish, and indeed there are not many. It is difficult to do this.

Marin told Julius II this question. After thinking about it, Julius II suddenly blinked and said:

"The problem you said is a big problem for you, but for some people it is not a problem at all!"

"Some people? It means ..." Marin was puzzled.

"French!" Julius II said firmly.

"French? Yeah, why didn't I think of it ..." Marin slapped his head and instantly understood what Julius II meant.

France and Spain have been in love and killed for many years, and it is normal for spies to penetrate each other. Even many Spanish nobles secretly fell to France. Similarly, many French nobles also secretly colluded with Spain.

Therefore, as France, which has been in love with Spain for many years, it is not too simple to spread the news in Spain.

The most important thing is that spreading this news is extremely beneficial to France. Because, France is also very afraid of the alliance between England and Spain, because it will make France hostile. Therefore, if there is a way to collapse the Anglo-Western Union electricity bills, the French will be very happy to do so.

Moreover, it is said that the old lady of Isabella I was seriously ill. Truthfully, news of Catherine's tragic encounter spread throughout Spain. In addition, she learned that her husband was having fun in Italy, and I wonder if she would be mad at her ...

To be honest, Marin was very afraid of Isabella I. Not to say that Isabella I is more capable than Ferdinand II. It is because Isabella I was very interested in colonizing overseas.

Ferdinand II was more talented, but his vision was limited to Europe, mainly Italy. This naturally made Ferdinand II free of the possibility of conflict with Marin.

However, Isabella I was different. This old lady is very courageous and pioneering. At that time, the finances were so difficult that they were willing to sell jewelry to support Columbus's voyage. It can be seen that this old lady is very interested in overseas colonization.

The old lady in the history of Spain can become an empire that does not set sun. On the contrary, her husband Ferdinand II, although more politically talented, is limited to Italy and contends with France for hegemony. Therefore, on the contrary, there is little contribution to the development of colonies in Spain.

The Spanish heir, Prince Juan, because he was closer to his father, was also influenced to care more about European affairs. Marin and Prince Juan had several encounters and found that the child was indeed more concerned about European affairs.

The wife of Prince Juan, Margaret of Austria, is very talented. However, the origin of the Austrian princess decided that she would definitely find ways to make Spain more involved in the hegemony with France. In this way, it can also relieve Austria a lot of pressure.

Therefore, among the two generations of the royal family in Spain, only the old lady Isabella I likes to expand abroad. The other three people prefer Continental hegemony. As long as the old lady dies, Spain is even more "European".

Strange to say, according to history, Isabella I should have died at the end of November last year, why is it still alive now?

Marin did not know that this matter had anything to do with him ...

What does it matter? At that time, Marin used a dose of "ginger brown sugar water" to save Prince Juan who had a cold and fever, and also used the trick of "spirit to wipe his body" to make Prince Juan who has a high fever survive.

This is not the end. After Prince Juan survived, these two great tricks for treatment were treasured by the Spanish royal family as a secret recipe.

No, at the end of November 1504, that is, last winter, Isabella I had a high fever because of his frailty and a cold.

Originally, in this era, a high fever is mortal. However, using Marin to cure Prince Juan's secret recipe and wiping her body with spirits, Isabella I actually stood up and did not die. However, drinking the **** brown sugar water, but did not immediately get cured. Why? Because Isabella I is different from Prince Juan.

When Prince Juan became ill, he was a 19-year-old boy, the most energetic moment in his life. Although seriously ill, as long as the disease root is removed, the young body recovers quickly.

Isabella I is different ~ www.novelhall.com ~ She is old and weak. Moreover, it is accompanied by some gynecological diseases. Therefore, I also took **** brown sugar water, but did not get better immediately. However, the dangerous period has passed.

The most fatal thing for people who suffer from cold is fever. Nowadays, as long as the fever does not die. Although he had to lie on the bed weakly, it was not fatal. Moreover, although Isabella I was not in good health, in spring, the season is warmer and it will be much better.

In later generations, Marin has also seen such patients. They often get sick as soon as winter comes, either coughing or catching a cold. However, as soon as the spring blooms, these problems are temporarily gone. Then, in winter again ...

Of course, Marin is not willing to make Isabella I get better. So Marin decided to send someone to Paris, France, to tell the French about the tragic fate of Princess Catherine, and suggested that the French go to Spain to spread the news, so that Spain would know the whole country. In this way, under the pressure of public opinion, the relationship between Spain and England will be better.

In addition, Marin also intends to use the French hands to make Ferdinand II's love history in Italy, and also find ways to let the diseased Isabella I know that this ambitious anger Old lady. In this way, Spain will not miss America in the future ...
