Since the Accounting: A Chronicle of the Roman Khanate

Chapter 70
"Anyway, this person is not important—that Queen Elizabeth, she acts in a Greek style." Li Xuanying told a story like this, and commented: "Soon, she plotted to assassinate King Charles and re-support her daughter Maria. Restoration of the king."

"But unfortunately, the Queen Mother's party has no fighting power. Even though the king is dead, the royal party defeated her in the chaos. Sigismund ran away early, and the Queen Mother and her daughter were arrested and faced trial. danger of execution."

"It seems that Bosnia has also become Hellenized." Zhu Wenkui judged.

"That's right. In the final analysis, not being able to beat is the most fundamental problem." Li Xuanying agreed.

"The Poles saw that Maria's small court was about to end, so they just took advantage of the situation to get rid of her, and instead supported her sister Jadwiga; Sigismund is still gathering troops to counterattack, and he will not be able to come in a while ;The Venetians were robbed of Dalmatia along the coast by Hungary, and they are preparing for revenge. In this way, no one can help other surrounding forces for the time being. The queen party is desperate, and some people come to us for help."

"This situation was noticed by Basil III Khan, who had just been in power at the time. He decided to seize this opportunity to attack his old enemy Hungary. Especially not to let the marriage succeed and create a stronger enemy."

"So that's it." Zhu Wenkui nodded: "This will explain it."

"The reason is clear, but it still feels weird." Zhu Rangna complained.

"Actually, don't take this matter too seriously." Li Xuanying explained, "Isn't the matter of snatching marriages rare in Europe? I don't think so."

"It's not uncommon for a widowed noblewoman who lost her husband's protection to be forcibly taken away by other lords to marry her and take the opportunity to annex the territory. It's not news for a long time to rob other people's virgins to marry—and this incident It may not have anything to do with gender, it's just a matter of the jungle. If the lady is strong, there will be some who will grab the boy."

"It is the basic skill of a knight to take the initiative to snatch a noble lady when no one cares about it." Guo Kang also chimed in: "We are the embodiment of chivalry."

"Don't look at those people who are pretending to be nobles, but they are actually a group of savages who ran out of the Black Forest. They have a decent fart." Li Xuanying said with a smile: "Isn't it rare for them to do this kind of thing themselves? It's just that before , it’s because they rob others, and they haven’t been robbed many times, so it’s just ‘rare’.”

"Before, these barbarian chieftains were used to running rampant, and they always robbed others. Now, it is unacceptable to be robbed by others."

"But you think, do the chiefs of the Alemanni really have natural nobles? Why can't they snatch them?" He said to Zelik and Jesska: "What is the essential difference between them and the tribesmen? , so that the tribesmen can be robbed, but the chief can’t? Who stipulated this, Brother Tian?”

"They really advertise like that." Jean Na thought for a while and said, "They usually claim that they are chosen by the heavenly father, so they are nobler than others."

"Could it be that the heavenly father came down to earth himself and told everyone publicly?" Li Xuanying said disdainfully, "It looks like a barbarian made it up by himself, bragging about himself. Don't you think so?"

"Should the heavenly father descend to earth to count?" Jeanna muttered.

"If you want to say that... that's right, whether the patriarch or the bishop of Rome, they are just messengers and agents. How can there be a god who speaks in person?" Li Xuanying suddenly realized and analyzed.

"Look, the highest legitimacy seems to be that Heavenly Father and Heavenly Brother come down to earth and tell everyone in person, right? In that case..."

"Uh, your religious ideas are much more radical than ours." Brother Zerick stammered and gestured.

"We still won't discuss religious issues today." Guo Kang hurriedly tried to bring the topic back: "Let's continue telling them about the plan of the Roman court at that time."

"That's nothing to say." Li Xuanying replied: "At that time, there was actually a problem on our side in Rome."

"Just the year before, in 1381, everyone came together to overthrow the tyranny of the Queen Mother Helena."

"But this matter also has a side effect: the previous diplomatic matters—that is, the family tree relationship and marriage relationship that I couldn't explain just now, were all presided over by the Queen Mother herself. Without her, everyone is still not very comfortable for a while. , I don’t quite understand these things.”

"My father still remembers the situation at that time. It was said that after a few days of discussion in a meeting, everyone was dizzy. In the end, Tutuo Maimatinikus from the Northern Tent directly slapped the table and said that the order was reversed, no matter what He's gone, just hit him."

"So you went straight to the battle?" Zhu Wenkui also asked with great interest.

"That's right. At that time, everyone agreed and felt that we can no longer be entangled in these messy things." Li Xuanying shook her head: "Whatever he claims, just destroy the vassal state, so there is no claim. This will save trouble too much."

"The Great Khan decided to go on his own, and my father and Uncle Guo were the vanguard at the time, leading the team to arrest people." He said proudly: "At that time, Hungary was in chaos, and the Royalist Party's defenses were not strict. They succeeded in a surprise attack. Bring the mother and daughter back."

"You should have heard about what happened after that. We took the king to order the nobles and attacked Bosnia and Hungary. Since then, Basil III has been using troops there and has become famous."

"Sigismund came to negotiate with us and wanted to redeem him, but Khanting said that since ancient times, Luo and barbarians have been incompatible, and the king's industry is not partial. It's okay to say, there is no need to talk about this matter."

"I heard that Her Majesty Maria is still here." Zerick thought for a while and said, "I don't know what she thinks about the right of inheritance?"

"She seems to be in Thessaloniki now." Li Xuanying thought for a while, and said, "At that time, the incident happened suddenly, and we patronized and robbed her. We didn't know what to do after we robbed her."

"The Great Khan already has a Serbian wife. Someone suggested restoring the ancient system and setting up multiple Ordos to obtain claims on Hungary. But we can't be sure whether the local people recognize this way of obtaining..."

"That's when I remembered, do you see if the locals recognize it?" Jeanna said in surprise.

"This...it's not that I didn't think too much about it beforehand." Li Xuanying scratched her head: "Our church does not recognize Sigismund's marriage to her, in order to deny the Luxembourg family's power over Hungary. But who will marry, everyone I didn't even think about it. Not long after that, the 'Anda War' broke out, and everyone had no time to take care of the follow-up marriage arrangements, so this matter was shelved."

"And after all this trouble, Daochang Yin, the patriarch, remembered this. Daochang Yin thought that she still has the status of a nobleman. As long as she is under control, she can take advantage of the opportunity to go to Alemanni's side and catch another big one." Your lord, come and be our vassal."

"It's just that none of the local princes is willing to come to be a son-in-law. The matchmakers we sent were not very popular, and none of them were caught in the end. The Han court was very discouraged and didn't bother to take care of it anymore. They thought that as long as they didn't Run back to the savages, and let her go."

"Later, she found a husband from Italy, and I forgot which family it was from, he was not very famous." Li Xuanying scratched her head: "Maybe the nobles have seen through Daoist Yin's scheme, no Be fooled."

"Hey, that's right. There were rumors at the time that she had something to do with Uncle Guo." He turned to look at Guo Kang, and said mysteriously, "It's a pity that I didn't see anything later. I don't know if it's... "

"No, absolutely not." Guo Kang quickly denied: "Don't put everything on my adoptive father's head!"

"What about this..." Li Xuanying curled her lips, and hesitated to say: "Oh, it doesn't matter anymore. In short, Sigismund suffered a big loss and lost face, and he has made a grudge since then—— Even if there is no enmity, you can still fight the same."

"This is really miraculous." Jeanna shook her head and said, "The management is so loose now, and I haven't seen her run back."

"Where are you going back? Sigismund's side?" Guo Kang disagreed: "You don't think she will be better there."

——In Guo Kang's world, Maria died in a suspicious accident when she was in her 20s.After that, her husband Sigismund successfully secured the position of king.

This kind of thing, in today's Europe, is probably not so rare.It's normal for her to feel threatened.

However, Guo Kang felt that there was no way to verify this kind of thing to convince them, so there was no need to say it.

—Oh, that's not true either.This is Sigismund's black material, so they may really believe it...
