Warlock Royal Family

Chapter 160 The Value of Mrs. Reinhardt

On the evening of June 6th, when Ladislaus was washing her feet, she noticed that Mrs. Reinhardt was very preoccupied today, and her massage was very substandard.

After washing her feet, she asked Ladislaus to let the other maids leave. Mrs. Reinhardt solemnly saluted Ladislaus, and then said something that surprised Ladislas: "Louis chose The emperor wants to know what price to pay to allow him to merge the Diocese of Würzburg and several other small dioceses, so as to connect the two territories of the upper and lower Palatinate."

On the eve of Ladislaus's entry into Frankfurt, Rhine-Palatine Elector Louis V finally expressed his request, and his greed even exceeded Ladislaus's initial assumptions.

"How did he find you out of so many maids?" Ladislaus was a little surprised at the other party's ability to scout for information. It is one thing for the family leaders of the maids to use the information they get to compete for the first place in internal politics. , but now that the Holy Roman Empire has only the name of a country, if it is so quickly connected with the Rhine-Palatine Elector who is actually a foreign monarch, that is another thing that must be checked.

At the same time this situation forced Ladislaus to decide quickly on the vexing question of how far to involve his mistress in politics.

Sometimes women's diplomacy can play a very unique role. For example, the Marquise Facchetti has a lubricating effect on the relationship between Ladislaus and the Medici, and allows the Colonna family to continue to maintain Ladislaus as the Austrian monarch. Valuable ally for Italian influence.

But Mrs. Reinhardt's foothold is not stable yet, so she is so impatient to ask for help, and it is such a big deal from the beginning, she really doesn't know how to advance or retreat.

You said that it’s all right for you to seek a few supplier contracts for the court outside the palace with your relatives, or to help your relatives and friends for a position such as a manor housekeeper. You can also intervene in the ambition of the elector?

'Could it be that I gave Susan too good conditions to make her delusional? 'Since he began to accept the power of Austria, Ladislaus has been introspecting himself every day, and every night before going to bed, he has to reflect on his gains and losses in politics for a day.

If Mrs. Reinhardt can't give him a good explanation, then maybe she should use this acceptable woman to frighten the monkeys.

"It should be that we have never, no, not taken a boat, so the elector guessed, guessed that you are taking care of a priest Grumba."

This reason made Ladislaus even more unhappy. He felt that his feelings should not be used. Although it was not used by Mrs. Reinhardt in front of him, the chill in his heart inevitably shot to her through his eyes. .

Ladislaus' stern gaze made Mrs. Reinhardt a little timid and unable to speak.

For the time being, no one has more profoundly realized the power of Ladislaus to kill with one word than Mrs. Reinhardt. In the more than 20 years of her life spent in Italy, she has never thought of an elector. Mrs. Hou would call her "dear sister," and she wondered if losing Ladislas' favor would mean becoming a petty lord of a castle in the Italian countryside again.

Fortunately, the real reason for her to do this is not the wife of the elector's wife.

Although she has less experience in high-level political games than Ladislaus, she also knows that at this time, she must not let her man, and even her own monarch, Ladislaus leave doubts and suspicions in her heart.

Mrs. Reinhardt, who wanted to understand, finally bravely met Ladislaus' eyes and continued: "The Elector's wife gave me a jewelry box, a full set of gold jewelry, and a sapphire pendant."

Most of the huge ancestral jewelry library of the Habsburg family was taken to Madrid by Ferdinand's wife, and some of the rest are the most precious jewelry that traditionally belonged to the queen.

It is true that Ladislaus failed to bestow any jewels on his women.

Compared with those maids, Mrs. Reinhardt's decorations are very ordinary, let alone Mrs. Elector.

This is also an important reason for her lack of self-confidence.

"You're fairly honest." Ladislaus' voice softened somewhat. Although this was still not a good reason, since it was still for self-interest, it was always overstepped.

In the court of Vienna, a woman born to a minor Italian aristocrat couldn't be more cautious enough.

Ladislaus decided in his heart that it would be a better arrangement to give her a sum of money and let her go back to Siena, not only for his majesty but also for her safety.

But Mrs. Reinhardt's words are not finished yet.

"But I didn't accept the jewelry box."

Seeming to have found the rhythm, she put her hands on Ladislaus' calves as she spoke, and began to massage him.

Riding horses for several days, Ladislaus's calf is indeed a little sore.

"Oh, you didn't accept those jewels? Then why did you send a message for the Rhine-Palatine Elector?" Ladislaus' tone began to improve.

"How dare I pass on a message to outsiders, Your Royal Highness Cardinal." Mrs. Reinhardt seemed to have been greatly wronged. "I'm just the daughter of a mere Italian knight. It's a great honor for me to serve you if you don't dislike my ordinary appearance. How dare I have any delusions. Without your authorization, how dare I Be your agent. I just want to serve you and repay your favor a little bit. I didn't promise anything to the elector's wife, even if the elector's request was just a test. I knew Rhine-Palatine earlier You will have a little more time to study countermeasures for the elector's plan."

Although Ladislaus felt a little disgusted by her loyalty, but since Mrs. Reinhardt really realized the relationship between a monarch and a minister above the relationship between men and women, and so quickly, Ladislaus felt very satisfied. up.

"You're right. Since you didn't agree to the Rhine-Palatine Elector, then I can deal with it better. Don't worry, I will not treat you badly when I return to Vienna. There are also questions about jewelry, I I will arrange it as soon as possible, and I will never let you wait too long, because your shivering is my shivering."

After listening to Ladislaus' words of love, Mrs. Reinhardt naturally made another confession, claiming that she didn't care about those things at all, as long as you, the cardinal, understand my loyalty.

This kind of thing is naturally understood by you and me.

Ladislaus was well aware that the lady was talking nonsense, but at least it was a skill that would help her survive the Viennese court.

Seeing that Ladislaus was quite satisfied with his explanation, Mrs. Reinhardt's hands went further and slowly touched the master's thigh, trying to untie his belt.

"Don't take off your clothes. I'll see guests later. It's too troublesome to wear the cardinal's clothes."

After listening to the order, Mrs. Reinhardt obediently got in from under the red robe.

Under the invitation of Mrs. Reinhardt's red lips, Ladislaus released all the recent pressure into her lips and teeth.

After resting for a while and letting the woman who showed her all-round value go to bed first, Ladislaus immediately summoned Prime Minister Sazastan and Frenzberg.

Machiavelli, who was closest to him, was staying in Vienna to sort out his finances, so Ladislaus could only rely on the two of them as his advisors. (To be continued.
