Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

Vol 7 Chapter 300: Queen into the city

In the depths of the palace garden, Alexander stared at Ruosha close in front of him unblinkingly. Even though he had calmed down from the initial surprise, he still seemed to be surprised because he didn't expect it.

Ruosha was quite satisfied with Alexander's look, but she was busy packing up the clothes that seemed to be messy.

The news that the Queen of Sicily has entered Ariaridoda will soon spread. I believe that someone has rushed to the palace after hearing the news. Ruosa doesn’t want people to see her like this, so she hurriedly wanted to be as soon as possible. After tidying up, he couldn't even listen to Alexander's intimate words that made her blush.

"You should be thankful that I didn't wear those particularly troublesome clothes for the sake of mobility, otherwise someone will know what we just did at this time," Ruosha complained a little, and then smiled again. "But I'm sorry to you. I'm still satisfied. You can tell from the way you look that those Castilian women did not succeed."

Ruosha's words made Alexander chuckle softly. He wanted to tell Ruosha that men are always insatiable in some aspects, even if they have tasted the sweetness of other women, they should be like a hungry wolf who has not been fed. Will also seem hungry as usual.

But he was obviously not stupid to this point, and the two of them were really wasting too much time, which seemed a little urgent.

The Queen of Sicily suddenly appeared in the palace, which surprised the nobles of Babiaridode.

Their preparations to welcome the queen were disrupted, and what was worse was that they didn't know why the queen entered the city secretly. This caused some people to think and even rush.

Alexander didn't expect Ruosha's impulsive actions to cause some unexpected changes. Someone in the city suddenly disappeared. He felt a little surprised at first, and then couldn't help laughing at Ruosha.

The ministers standing in front of Alexander looked at the quasi-king with helpless expressions. They also did not expect that someone would show their feet because of fear and fear. Now it seems that the queen's quiet entry into the city was purely a whim. You can tell how many followers.

It’s just that many people really can’t believe it. This is just a sister’s arbitrariness because she missed her elder brother. After all, the Queen of Sicily has a reputation, whether it’s the war with the French, the unification of Sicily or the Sevilla. The amazing victory outside the city of Asia, it is hard to imagine that the queen would do such a willful thing like a little girl.

"People always like to use all kinds of conjectures to try to figure out others, and they never thought that perhaps the simplest answer is right in front of their own eyes." Alexander shook his head slightly with emotion. He was not surprised that someone was hostile to him, but Exposing himself so wrongly made him feel a little speechless.

"His Royal Highness," Don Abuhwa frowned. Although he has publicly pledged allegiance, people still have to consider some necessary scruples before being officially crowned, so people still call Alexander as the regent. "At this time we People should be sent to hunt down those fugitives immediately."

Alexander glanced at the president of the court and waved his hand softly: "Never mind, the president do you want me to arrest them for any reason? Is it because my sister came into the city to visit me suddenly, and they happened to be out of the city? This charge declares them criminals?"

The president of the court wanted to say something, but looking at Alexander, it seemed that he did not want to pursue those people anymore. After a little consideration, he finally did not speak again.

Hohaer Binagaros stood by and watched silently. After several disappointing actions, the civil affairs officer could clearly feel that Alexander showed his indifference to him.

This made the civil officer decided to re-examine his previous behaviors that he had obviously ill-conceived after learning from the pain.

Holbina Garros is a man who can learn from his mistakes. He quickly realized the reason why he missed the opportunity several times before. He knew that if he could not reverse the impression in the mind of the regent as soon as possible, then his position It is likely to be replaced by many latecomers.

Don Capendi was unable to follow to Valaritod with him. This started to make Johoharbinagaros secretly happy, but now he is beginning to worry that maybe the warden might be the first to threaten him. Status person.

The two giants and the three nobles are now Alexander's biggest supporters in the Castilian court. The status and importance established by the peaceful march made their status more detached than other nobles.

Even Don Capendi is slightly inferior to them.

But this does not mean that their status is irreplaceable.

Holbinagaros felt that he should be more cautious, so he paid more attention to the regent's every move than others.

This made him somewhat surprised and soon discovered that the regent seemed to be really happy with the Queen's arrival.

The civil affairs officer was somewhat confused. In his imagination, the seemingly close relationship between the siblings was more due to the combination of interests, but now it does not seem to be the case.

This was a new discovery made by the civil officer. He felt that perhaps some of the previous conjectures were wrong, just as the regent himself said, perhaps the simplest answer is in sight.

Because there are many people who have the same ideas as him, people have all kinds of guesses about the arrival of the Queen of Sicily, and some even speculate that the regent may not be willing to see the queen's tough attitude in Castile.

So after some thoughts, some people considered whether they should show the Sicilians a little bit of Castilian toughness, perhaps this is just enough to satisfy the regent who is inconvenient to show his true ideas.

Holbina Garros had thought about it before, and he even felt that if he could publicly rub the majesty of the queen at the right opportunity, it might just cater to Alexander's heart.

But the new discovery made him feel that he should change his mind.

"His Majesty, please allow me to raise an objection," the civil officer stepped forward and said in the surprised eyes of people. "It is inappropriate for Her Majesty to enter the completion in this way. This is detrimental to her identity, so I think it is still There should be a grand welcome ceremony."

Holbinagaros’ words surprised several Castilian ministers. Although they were also surprised that the queen appeared in the palace so suddenly, they were actually relieved secretly.

The steps that Alexander described to them before to welcome the Queen of Sicily made them hesitate. After all, the Sicilian defeated Gonzalo in Seville, which was enough to make people feel annoyed. The changes in the situation made the Sicilian allies. , But this does not mean that there is no hostility towards them.

Therefore, for Alexander to greet the Queen of Sicily and her army so grandly, this made the Castilian nobles feel a little uncomfortable.

Now the queen suddenly appeared inexplicably, which made them wonder whether they could take the opportunity to change the form of greeting. At least the grand process as welcoming a conqueror might persuade the regent to subtract a few steps.

But what is going on?

Holbinagaros actually offered to hold a grand welcome ceremony, and this was the administrator, which made many people wonder if Holbinagaros was frustrated because of this period of time. Become a little brain abnormal.

But then Alexander's reaction made people suddenly realize that perhaps the administrator finally got the right pulse this time.

"That's it. Although it is a bit cumbersome, my sister deserves such a grand welcome ceremony."

Alexander's answer, not in a deliberate manner, but in a completely decisive tone, shocked people's hearts. Some people couldn't help looking at the administrator in surprise. Only then did they realize that it was the administrator who had accurately guessed the mind of the regent. .

Ruosa looked at the Castilians interestingly. This was the first time she had officially dealt with these Castilian nobles.

She found that these people had very different characteristics from Naples or Sicilians.

Perhaps it has been too deeply influenced by the Moors for many years. Compared with the slightly crude and simple ways of the Sicilians, the Iberians often seem to have more subtle emotions, but they seem to have more extreme impulses in their bones.

"I will let my Cuirass Grenadiers enter the city on time," Ruosa said to the Castilian nobles. She noticed that some of the faces of those people had darkened slightly after listening to her, but she ignored it. Instead, he continued, "My guard will protect my queen's carriage to reach the cathedral, but my other troops will be on standby outside the city."

Ruosha's words surprised the ministers who had ugly faces. They all looked at Alexander, hoping to get some enlightenment from the regent.

Alexander also looked at the comings and goings between the ministers and Ruosha interestingly. He could understand the complicated feelings these people had for Ruosha as Castilians.

Strictly speaking, as a normal future monarch of Castilian, he should have been grateful, jealous, and even hateful towards the Sicilians and Rusha.

It’s just that it’s a bit hard for him, and he also wants the Castilians to know clearly that the relationship between him and the Queen of Sicily is sincere, because it also relates to the fact that they will face Feidi at the same time. South this powerful enemy.

At that time, the two armies will form a real coalition, and Alexander has even figured out who will be the commander of this army.

A loud trumpet spreads from the Antoine Gate to the direction of Vallirido Cathedral. When the horn is about to fall, the next trumpeter will continue to sound the trumpet following the tune of the person in front .

This is a ritual peculiar to Castile. This kind of horn transmission inherited from the earlier tribal era is a grand etiquette used to welcome the most distinguished guests. It is said that when the most distinguished guests were received, those horns The hand will accompany the guests from the edge of the tribal territory to sound the horn until reaching the destination.

It has been many years since Castile had such a ceremonial trumpet transmission. The last time it was so grand was when the capital was moved to Valaritod, the Isabella couple officially entered the city for the first time.

The cuirass grenadiers marching forward are majestic. Their armor is shining in the sun, the beautiful red feathers on the helmets can't help but flutter in the wind, and the exquisite sabers and saddles are specially designed for the cuirass grenadiers. The muskets we designed and manufactured made them look so distinctive and extremely brave.

When many people saw these weapons, they couldn't help but think of the defeat in Seville. This way, the Vallidodes who stood on the side of the road and looked at the army were in a mixed mood, and some showed obvious hostility because of their emotions. .

The cuirass grenadiers keenly noticed those faintly hostile gazes, and their formation quickly became tighter. Following the command issued by the officers that only they could understand, the grenadiers formed an advancing defensive formation. Enclose the queen's carriage tightly in the middle.

The Cathedral of Ariaridoda is already near, and what people didn't expect was that Alexander had been waiting there in advance.

Around the cathedral square, dense crowds have enclosed the square, and the atmosphere is somewhat depressed. Some people whispered softly, and they were immediately interrupted by the people nearby.

Some nobles stood nervously not far behind Alexander. At this time, even Holbinagaros, who proposed the ceremony, had already regretted it.

He could clearly feel the unstable emotions of the people on the square, there was excitement and confusion, and some people were obviously very dissatisfied with the arrival of the Sicilians.

"What a good thing you did." Moradato, the tax collector standing next to Holbinagaros, said angrily to the administrator, "I want to remind you that if there is an accident next, I think Everyone doesn't mind letting you come out as the scapegoat."

The corner of Holbinagaros' eyes trembled slightly, and he looked at the side face of Don Bandraz, who was standing slightly forward.

As if feeling the help-seeking look of the administrator escaping, Don Bandraz turned his head and glanced at him slightly, but then turned around again.

Holbinagarros felt that his body was starting to get cold, not because of the changes in autumn, but because of cold sweat that had penetrated his clothes.

A little further away, a Castilian nobleman was talking to the president of the court in a low voice: "I heard that Don Carpenti is very proud of Madrid now, and some people even call him the new mayor of Madrid. ,Is that right?"

"Don't believe these, it's all rumors," Don Abuhwa said after he finished speaking, but he changed his words. "But your Royal Highness obviously trusts the warden, and I heard that he is very satisfied with His Majesty the Pope, so you know. of……"

Listening to the words of the president of the court, the noble nodded with understanding, and then quietly proposed to invite the president of the court to gather together in the famous red house when he had time.

There was a commotion in the direction leading to the Antoine Gate in the distance. Although it was still far away, the commotion was like a wave from the sea, rolling layer by layer toward the square.

People immediately realized that this should be the arrival of the Queen of Sicily's motorcade.

Despite the complicated feelings for the queen and his army, intense curiosity still prevailed.

A young, beautiful, brave and wise queen, which is irresistible to both nobles and commoners, is enough to make people have great curiosity about the Queen of Sicily.

And those miraculous experiences of Ruo Sha before are even more interesting.

Some people even think that if the Castilian army is defeated by such a legendary queen, it does not seem to be ashamed, or even a kind of pride. Of course, most people who think this way dare not put this idea in their mouths, but This does not prevent them from eagerly wanting to see the queen's demeanor.

The appearance of the Cuirass Grenadier caused an exclaim, and the tall and mighty soldiers and handsome uniforms attracted countless eyes full of envy and jealousy.

The silent eyes of the men and the screams of the women formed a sharp contrast, especially when several carefully selected cuirass grenadiers urged their horses, and stepped forward in front of the team at nearly uniform steps. In the square, many women were already crying out of breath because of excitement.

Watching this scene, Alexander's mouth turned up slightly, but he did not expect Ruosha to carry out his description of the army that has always been charming so thoroughly.

Obviously, the performance of this highly decorative honor cavalry in battle is not to be ignored, but they are enough to win the favor of most people by virtue of their handsome and mighty appearance.

All the cuirass shellmen quickly scattered around the square, their tall horse heads facing the crowd, all of them held the reins in one hand, and intentionally or unintentionally placed the other hand on the side of the saddle holster.

These were all veterans who participated in the Battle of Seville. Some of them even followed the then countess on an expedition to the Balkans. It was because of their protection that Alexander decided to greet him publicly in the square of the Cathedral of Valladolid. Ruo Sha.

The carriage came to a halt slowly, and the door opened as countless pairs of gazes full of emotions.

First, a maid slowly got out of the carriage with the help of the maid, and then the Queen of Sicily, who was waiting for everyone, got out of the carriage.

The people in the square couldn't help being shocked when they saw Ruosha!

To everyone's surprise, the Queen of Sicily did not wear a palace costume, but a gorgeous armor, and she also held a commanding staff inlaid with precious stones.

The sun was shining on the square of the cathedral, and the refreshing autumn wind blew over the blond hair of the man in front of the carriage competing with the sun.

Ruosha raised her head slightly and looked at the sky, which made the jewel on the crown of her head turn into a few dazzling lights.

Then she looked at Alexander in the distance, and many people noticed the warm smile on her face.

Ruosa stepped forward, everyone's eyes were on her. There is no doubt that the most dazzling figure on the square at this moment is the beautiful figure of the Queen of Sicily.

Alexander walked two steps forward and then stopped. He opened his arms slightly as Ruo Sha was approaching.

Many people were secretly relieved to see this scene.

The regent, who was supposed to salute the queen, made the two sides stand on an equal footing with a hug. This made the Castilians very pleased.

According to the previous arrangement, at this time the bell tower of the Cathedral of Ariarido should begin to ring.

But just before the loud bell sounded, people saw the Queen of Sicily made an unexpected move.

The queen stopped, and she held the command scepter in both hands to offer to the regent. At the same time, the queen's swan-like slender white neck was slightly lowered, and the crown bowed slightly towards the regent.

There was a sudden silence in the square, and then suddenly there was a thunderous cheer!

At the same time, the bell rang, and the resounding bells rang across the square, and instantly merged with the violent waves of cheers.

Alexander walked forward amidst the cheers, he did not hesitate to hold Ruosha tightly in his arms, looking at the beautiful eyes in front of him, he lowered his head and then kissed her on the cheek. The ear said: "I can only give you this, but my sister, I promise you, one day you will have a world."
