Warlock Royal Family

() In the palace of Vienna, Austria's top executives are gathering together, digesting the danger signal from Madrid.

"No wonder His Majesty the most honorable and powerful emperor doesn't need our help anymore. France and Spain are very close to reaching an agreement." After Ladislaus once again provided a large sum of money to the Church of Shar, he got the latest information . "The Kingdom of France will hand over the rest of the Duchy of Burgundy, including the Neves region and the Earth of Burgundy to Spain, and give up its claim to Naples."

"Naturally, an invincible army cannot be without a target. His Majesty Ferdinand naturally wants to find a new target for his invincible army." Ladislaus looked at the surrounding members of the State Council, trying to show calm and trust.

The last thing you need at this time is self-doubt. These people are already extremely powerful ministers, and there may be endless internal strife, but collusion with foreign countries should not be possible.

"This is just a test, Your Highness." Although theoretically these top political figures could be trusted, Machiavelli knew that his background determined him to be the most reliable one, so he was the first to speak. "Even if France fails, Spain will never use force against us."

"It's just a statement of power. Confirm his inheritance rights in the event of my sudden death or death without heirs." It's not that Ladislaus doesn't understand this truth, but he must use the most severe performance to explain his attitude.

In fact, after returning from the Danube and entering the city of Vienna, Ladislaus realized that Ferdinand did not really want to take back power immediately. This is obviously something that no reasonable person would want to do. , just to leave a foreshadowing for future things.

The crux of the matter was that Ladislaus had no children.

Anna's long pregnancy has caused a lot of rumors, and not everyone understands her strength.Of course, the high-level officials know that as a voter, there is no need to engage in any farce of fake pregnancy, but after more than 20 months of pregnancy, it is inevitable that there will be some gossip that the people like to hear and see spread all over Europa.

Not without cases of prolonged pregnancies.

But even the rising lord of the Habsburg family, the most powerful warlock in the known history of Europa, Emperor Rudolph the Great who could cast the "Ice Storm" from birth.He only stayed in the mother's womb for fifteen months.

What angered Ladislaus the most was Commissioner Jones' recent report, and yet another vicious rumor circulating among high-ranking courtesans and bards that he was so anxious about being childless that he paid a fortune to buy " Special Drugs".

The despicable Shuna Church dared to slander the mighty His Highness Ladislaus in such a way. I really don't know where this terrible lie came from.

Ferdinand, who had a son, was not suddenly hostile to Ladislaus, but to show his potential power over Austria.

"Your Highness, don't worry. After the Lord of Flame's chosen one gives birth to a son, Madrid will naturally give up." Although Jones is recognized as the weakest "Guardian" in Europa, he is also a "Guardian" after all. As long as he is a little closer to Anna, He could hear two powerful heartbeats. "Of course we must also strengthen the intelligence work in Madrid, which requires more funding."

Compared to Machiavelli who was completely promoted by Ladislaus.Jones had to show his loyalty and see if he could grab some funds by the way.

"It's a pity that this is a great opportunity to set back France. Francois shouldn't be let go just like that." Sazastan's resume made him suspect no matter how he explained it, so he simply refused to explain it, and he really It's a very, very regrettable opportunity that I haven't had in so many years.

Although the Queen Mother Louise controlled the situation, after all, it can be delayed for a while.Maybe there are many nights and dreams, the Capet family is more prosperous than the Habsburg family, and some weak branches dare not move for the time being, but the king has been unable to return to Madrid, so there may be variables.

But until now, Ladislaus must first keep his position: "I have asked Odd Kessler to prepare, and later we will go to the Great Wish Room to meet our Lord."

This is the most important thing, and the attitude of the knights of ambition is very crucial in the struggle within the Habsburg family.

People who are not followers of Barbarossa still cannot enter the Room of Great Wishes, but when Ladislaus entered the Room of Great Wishes, the gate carved with the emperors of the past dynasties suddenly shone brightly.This undoubtedly shows Barbarossa's attitude.

The important ministers of Austria cheered one after another, and then warmly praised Ladislaus and the warlock royal family.

In fact, Ladislaus paid a lot of money to get the support of the Grand Wish Knight.

"You know, on the issue of succession, we can only remain neutral at best." Although Barbarossa spoke in the voice of Charles V, he actually did not particularly favor Ladislaus.

At that time, He would not be particularly partial to Ladislaus.The ancestor gods always support the big sect to suppress the small sect when they fight internally, with great power.

Compared with Spain, whose national power is like a raging fire, Austria is undoubtedly just a small sect.

"It is enough to remain neutral. If I really die without an heir, it is only natural for Ferdinand to succeed me. However, your Majesty knows better than anyone how difficult it is to kill my son."

"It's not easy to give birth to him, and you've done something very wrong in letting pregnant women play, which fueled Madrid's doubts and courage."

"Now you can spread your faith not only in Verona and Treviso, but the faith on Venice Island will not be exclusive to Woking in the future." Ladislaus's explanation is very powerful, "If you don't use it Anna, I can't deal with so many enemies on the island at all, even she is exhausted by Vol'jin's defense."

Frederick Barbarossa, who has benefited, can't say anything, but the price of letting him shine once is not small. Although Odd Kessler is also a pure minister of Austria, it is really too difficult for him to bargain with his own beliefs. , especially the price also includes his benefits.

"Then please build new churches in Verona and Treviso as soon as possible, and hand over one-tenth of this year's Austrian religious tax to Odd Kessler."

This was such a huge benefit that even Odd Kessler was too embarrassed to attend in person. He hid early and left the entire ambition room to Ladislaus.

Although the Cyric Church has been greatly hindered in Austria, the tithe tax can still be received, and what the Habsburg family owed in the past is nothing more than an additional contribution to Rome. The tithe tax has never been divided. If you dare to obstruct it, the Roman Church can still receive a lot of money from Austria.

Allocating one-tenth of this money to the Church of Barbarossa is bound to greatly damage the relationship between Rome and Austria.

Ladislaus nodded silently to confirm the conditions just now, but he did not leave, but sat down by the pool of ambition.

The four double-headed eagles have been spitting out water jets, and the crimson liquid continuously flows into the bottomless pool.

Compared with the last time he entered this room, the speed of the water flow was much faster. Most of this was due to Ladislaus. He worked so hard, and Barbarossa did not give him much support.

Ladislaus sat by the pool, more than ten meters away from the water surface, he sighed regretfully: "This time is really a great opportunity."

Ladislaus needs no explanation; Barbarossa understands this regret better than anyone.

The voice of Charles V responded: "It is true, but unity of purpose has always been easier said than done, but this is not the most important reason. Detaining a captured monarch for a long time is too dangerous a strategy. Ferdinand is worried that if he is captured Prisoners will be treated in the same way."

Ladislaus didn't believe this explanation. He looked at the pool for a long time, and finally stood up and walked out.

"He doesn't want or dare to break with the Roman Church. Neither do you." Ladislaus rarely used honorifics for his ancestors. "That's the root of the restraint."

The indomitable aura that was once a demigod disappeared after becoming a true god.

The pressure of survival is different. It is extremely difficult to become a true god after the will of ancestor worship. There is no other way but to fight to the death.

Even the division of taxes dared to mention only one-tenth.

In fact, this problem has always troubled Frederick Frederick. It was not until Ladislaus walked to the door that Charles V's voice sounded again: "The Roman Church is deeply rooted, and I am afraid it will not be able to destroy it in one generation."

'Hmph, cherish your life in the face of great events, and forget your life in the face of small gains. If you want him, he may not come around you. Wait, you and the emperor will regret it soon. '

Of course, Ladislaus can only keep this last comment in his heart. (To be continued. You are welcome to come to the starting point to vote for recommendation and monthly tickets.
