Warlock Royal Family

The Marquise Facchetti was completely unaware that when she met Anna's eyes, her lover had quietly misled Cardinal Orsini in a dangerous way.

Of course, this was not a whim by Ladislaus. He went to contact the ambassador and got direct instructions from the emperor at the emperor's embassy. It turned out that the emperor had already noticed his former mentor. They have a common enemy with their own, but for the sake of faith and for the true selection of the Pope's own family, there has been an obvious tendency to be centrifugal.

It’s just that the conflict between the two sides was only a secondary conflict in the context of the French invasion. The emperor only instructed the ambassador to find opportunities to contact the local nobles, and did not intend to march into Rome like Otto the Great, or directly like certain Hohenstaufen emperors. The plan to go to war with the true pope.

It was just the act of choosing the Pope to grant Ladislaus status and wealth, which also made the emperor unable to determine Ladislaus' thoughts.

Although Ladislaus has received the grace of the ambitious knight Barbarossa, after all, the kindness is not deep, and no one can be sure how Ladislaus will choose sides in the face of conflicts after taking the benefits.

However, Ladislaus' visit to the embassy allowed the ambassador to confirm his attitude, and the emperor's instructions could naturally be told to him.

After removing the diplomatic rhetoric, Ladislaus almost understood that poaching can be ruthless, and assassination is not a last resort. The bottom line is that large-scale bloodshed is not allowed. This is the overall attitude of Emperor Charles V.

Because not only the most direct enemy of the Kingdom of France, but also the Mafia Bann Church, which rose in the north of the Holy Roman Empire under the auspices of Martin Luther, has risen again. It is said that after reading the "95 Theses", you can see the resurrection of Bann. scene,

The Blackhand tyrant has risen from the ashes.

Although there are great conflicts, the emperor and the pope also have common enemies, so they may not be unable to seek common ground while reserving differences, and help each other.

For example, the meeting between the old Xibo father and son and Ladislaus is the best evidence of "seeking common ground while reserving differences". Several people who were life and death enemies in the very recent past are now the same people who have fallen into the world.

The old Sibo was very on the road, after greeting each other with the highest-ranking Cardinal Orsini.

Immediately came to hold Ladislaus's hand, and conducted a self-examination as soon as he came up.

"Ladislaus, it's great to see that you're fine, that bastard Cesare colluded with the French to murder you, it's an unforgivable crime, thanks to Ladislas, you helped me clean up the house, It's all because I have no way to teach my son, and I didn't discipline him well."

"His Royal Highness Xibo, what are you talking about? Cesare and I grew up together. I am pure and simple. , made an irreparable big mistake, I really want to save him, but the knife and gun have no eyes, what a pity."

Naturally, Ladislaus had to reciprocate. As he talked, he reminisced about the good days when he and Cesare roamed the streets together. It was a bit sad.

Although he still hated Ladislaus for draining his son into a mummy, the old Xibo continued to conduct serious self-criticism and deep introspection.

On the other hand, Caligula and Anna are naturally full of joy when they meet as brothers and sisters. There is no false love between brothers and sisters. There is already a bit of genuine affection, and this reunion is even more genuine joy.

Cassano Cavaliers and "People-Friendly Priest" Steve both watched with mixed emotions that Old Seabo and Ladislaus performed an absurd repertoire that looked like a political satire.

Their sworn enemy, hunted down by them and then retaliated with terrifying mind magic, is now the Seabo family's hope of restoring power.

Anna and old Xibo have already passed letters to each other, and old Xibo took the news that the warlock royal family would support him as an opportunity to stabilize the cohesion of his subordinates, and made a big publicity.

It's just that they are not as indifferent as politicians like Old Xibo deal with the changing encounters between friends and enemies.

The old Xibo's servants plus the two of them, there are less than ten left in total, if it weren't for the Cassano knights who were repelled by Ladislaus to ambushe the Andre-Doria family wisely and decisively The pursuit of soldiers, old Xibo and his party must be dead without a place to bury them.

Although the Xibo family is exhausted now, after all the years of operation, there are still a lot of hoards that can be used. When they arrived in Florence, the old Xibo took out [-] talers from the Medici Bank with only his signature and key. Xibo was not stingy at this time, and gave him a lot of rewards.

But Cassano Cavaliers and Pastor Steve are very clear that perhaps the remaining wealth and power of the Xibo family are sufficient for rewards and expenses, but it is far from enough to restore power in Liguria, and it is very necessary The support of Emperor Charles V who stood behind Ladislaus.

Perhaps Cesare's assassination can be interpreted as his own actions, but the pursuit they carried out on behalf of the old Sibo is undoubtedly the action of the Sibo family, not to mention that young people are inevitably arrogant, and they don't know what La Dislaus is not holding a grudge.

Cassano Cavalier still didn't know how many complicated feelings and unforgettable memories there were between the female spellcaster who was hacked to death by his sword and Ladislaus in that dark and chaotic night.

If he knew this, he might understand Ladislaus' eyes at this time, and he would be more afraid of Ladislaus' smile.

"Knight Cassano, we meet again. Thanks to your loyalty and bravery, His Highness Sibo was able to reach Rome safely this time."

"Don't dare to do it, don't dare to do it, it's just a knight's obligation to the lord, but I once offended His Excellency the Archbishop, please punish me."

Ladislaus helped Cassano Cavalier who was about to kneel down, and repeatedly dismissed him without mentioning it. He once again showed his willingness to let go of the past and looked forward to the future of fighting France together in the same boat.

Everyone present couldn't help but admire Ladislaus' youthful maturity and statesmanship.

Yes, everyone, except Pastor Steve.

Pastor Steve, who was not specially entertained because of his low status, seemed to have noticed something young and immature in Ladislaus' eyes.

It seems that after facing Cassano Cavaliers, Ladislaus needs to work hard to suppress himself in order to perform without losing his demeanor.

It's just that this feeling is too subtle, and even Pastor Steve, who is reluctantly aristocratic, can't be sure of it, and it's not worth mentioning that fleeting feeling.

He could only sigh in his heart, these high-ranking nobles were really nothing, they had no human taste at all.On the one hand, he was full of expectations to reap greater benefits from this chaos and become a member of these high-ranking nobles.

If he wanted to live a normal life, he could have abandoned the old Sibo family and returned to Apple Town on the way.

His family is still in Apple Town, Admiral Andre Doria will not, and it is impossible to clean up all these local snakes, as long as he pays taxes on time, serves honestly, and maintaining his status is not a problem.

However, Pastor Steve, who saw the opportunity to squeeze into a higher level this time, abandoned his wife and son and fled all the way, leaving the position of law enforcement officer to his younger brother.

Although he hasn't seen a real return on his investment, at least he has won the special admiration and trust of the old Xibo.
