Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

Old Beiruget walked in the team excitedly, he had never felt as important and great as he is now.

The old Beiruget, who rode a strong donkey out of the city in the evening, was originally on the road while sighing how bad he was, and worried about not knowing what was going on.

But to his surprise, he thought that he might have to go a long way this trip, but he didn't expect that he had already heard about the team of the Duke of Rome Thesia before he had gone too far.

To the surprise of Old Beiruguet, the team that had been heard walking slowly suddenly appeared near Torrecillas.

In other words, it is the vanguard of the Duke’s team, a real army composed of a formal army.

This team is small in number but very capable. It can be said that they are the forwards of the "Peace March" army, and they obviously have a very strong combat effectiveness.

After confirming the identity of the old Beiruget, or confirming that he was indeed sent by the former officer, the chasing guards in the team immediately led him to Alexander's team.

At this time, the old Beiruguet knew why the slow peace march that had been heard would suddenly appear near Torresillas.

In Cuellar, although they were declined, the locals used another way to make Alexander unable to refuse their gift.

They provided enough means of transportation for the peace march.

Horse carts, donkey carts, ox carts, and all kinds of large and small trolleys. Those Cuellars were very clever and declared that these things were not given to the Duke himself, but to the elderly who followed him. The elderly and women.

Of course, such a gift cannot be rejected, and the speed of the whole team is much faster with convenient transportation.

And just from Cuellar, as a signal, more and more people joined in, and the composition of the personnel gradually changed.

More and more soldiers appeared in the ranks, and some rebels who were obviously armed nobles gathered together and gradually became armies.

Don Bandraz, one of the two giants who followed Alexander to enter Barri Dodd, played an important role at this time.

He first gathered the little nobles with status, and then organized them into a temporary army directly under the orders of the duke in a short period of time.

However, the Mayor of Madrid knows that these people are actually just standing in front of them. He has already understood that these people are just sent to test the wishes of the Duke of Rome. intend.

The arrival of Ferdinand's army has become the key to the final determination of the nobles!

When the old Beiruguet reported to Alexander that Ferdinand had decided to send someone to attack the peaceful marching team, after Don Bandraz’s intentional disclosure, the noble spies in the provisional army immediately learned the news.

For a time, many people left the team and ran towards the wilderness. Someone was waiting for them in the distance to be ready to send the report about the Duke of Rome Thesia back to their owner.

The people of Ferdinand didn't know that when they thought they were secretly leaving Valaritod, their whereabouts had already fallen into the eyes of countless people.

For the nobles of Castile, this is not just a struggle for the succession to the throne of Castile, but also the old and new nobles, new and new nobles, as well as the secular and the church, Castile and God. Gong, even to some people who have vaguely heard about the rumors of the new colony, is a struggle for rights in the new world.

In such a struggle, the Castilian nobles made their choice.

The old Beluget became a hero, or whether he wanted it or not, he became the representative of the ordinary people of Bariarido against tyranny and usurpers. He was lifted up and thrown into the air forcefully, in continuous He was brought to the Duke again only after a few ups and downs of the high school.

In front of many people, Alexander stopped him from bowing and saluting, but unexpectedly embraced the ordinary citizen of Valaritod.

This move surprised both civilians and nobles. It was a bit too deviant in this era, and even out of dignity.

This made the nobles dumbfounded, and the people exclaimed in surprise. As for the old Beiruget, no one cared about his feelings.

In fact, Old Beiruget almost fainted, his hands and feet were numb and he stood there stiffly, and even after Alexander let go of him, he still kept that action.

But then Alexander's move to reward him with a small bag of gold coins seemed much more natural, and the nobles also believed that this was an expression of the Duke's generosity and clear rewards and punishments.

As for the previous hug, they were more willing to explain that the Duke was a little bit gaffe because he was too excited after the crisis was resolved.

It’s already bright, maybe it’s the excitement before, and it also made many people excited. The team that took advantage of the coolness of summer did not feel tired at all. They marched along the road happily, when someone saw the sign of Torre When Celias' wooden street sign, the team cheered.

Torrecillas has always been regarded as the boundary line of Vallidod, and passing this street sign means that they have officially entered the Vallidod area.

This is a moment of far-reaching significance, and some nobles even asked whether they should find a painter to paint this scene.

This proposal has been approved by many people, but it is obviously not the time to discuss such trivial matters.

The army that Torrecillas had not sent before also joined the peaceful march. The leader of this army was the commander of the Torrecillas Garrison.

This is the first army to officially join in the name of a town so far. Alexander specially summoned the commander. After some encouragement, he appointed this commander as the armed protection of the "peace marchers". official.

This is obviously a very important position. If it is officially appointed at this time, it will be reused in the new court in the future.

This made many people somewhat jealous, but they also knew how much the addition of Torrecillas' army meant to Alexander.

Although there were people in various places along the way, they were all in the name of individuals. Even the army that drove away the enemy was the private army of the nobles.

Now Torrecillas is the first to officially stand up and express the attitude, which is no less than the significance of entering Madrid on a single horse.

People secretly feel helpless to the cunning of the Torresillas, they are obviously too good at timing.

When the presence of Ferdinand’s army threatened the peace marchers and the duke himself, the presence of the Torrecilians became more important.

Even if they did not play a key role, no one denied that for Alexander, this was definitely a significant allegiance.

Old Beiruget walked in the team excitedly. He was somewhat awake from the excitement before, but now he has begun to figure out how to take advantage of this God-given opportunity.

The Beiruget family is now in operation. Maybe he should use the gold coins awarded by the Duke to take down the cobbler Sychud's shop. Anyway, he has been taken away and probably has no chance to come back alive.

No, no, no, the old Beiruguet shook his head quickly, he can't be so unpromising, this money should be used to train Alonso, he is the future hope of Beiruguet family, compared with this, the cobbler Sychud His shop is simply a garbage dump.

Old Beiruget was thinking about it all the way, so he didn't notice that the team seemed to slow down until he almost hit the back of the person in front of him.

"What's wrong, why don't you leave?"

"Yes, what happened?"

"Is someone stopping us again? Why not rush over!"

People have asked that the aftermath of the excitement brought about by the running dog who drove away Ferdinand has not completely dissipated. At this moment, these "peace marchers" who were the most ordinary civilians a few days ago really think they can interact with the world. Any powerful army is just facing.

However, the imaginary enemy did not appear, and people were given the order that the duke asked everyone to camp and rest here temporarily.

This made a lot of people feel dissatisfied. They thought that they should go to Vallaridou instead of stopping halfway and wasting time, so someone started shouting.

And some Madrid people who followed Alexander in the peaceful march from the beginning, because they believed they had a responsibility to remind the Duke, they shouted to see Alexander.

Only this time they were obviously going to be disappointed. It was Don Abhwa, the president of the court, one of the three nobles who appeared before them.

The judge who made the Madrid people deeply feared first severely reprimanded them for their unreasonable behavior, and then calmed down a little bit before telling these people that the Duke is discussing with the adults how to avoid a tragedy.

"Think about it, the Valaridodes are Castilians like us, and they will all be citizens of the duke in the future. He is racking his brains to avoid hurting them, but you and you are here. Add chaos," the president of the court then became stern again. "Go back and tell your companions what to do. The duke and the adults will find a way. Now all you should do is pray for the duke."

The court president's remarks in exchange for these people's representatives are full of guilt. They were moved by the Duke's kindness, and for a while, their dissatisfaction and clamor turned into respect for the future monarch.

Looking at the people who left, Don Abu Heva shook his head secretly, but when he turned and walked towards the distant woods, there was another trace of melancholy in his eyes.

In the woods, a group of people sat in a big circle. This is a field outside a village not far from Vallariddo, because just outside the woods there were monks from the Order of Saint Martin in the early years. A very simple woodcut angel descending statue was erected, and this village was called Saint Martin Village.

At this time, the villagers of Saint Martin Village did not know that a major meeting was being held in the woods outside the village. Of course, even the parties did not know what kind of discussion they were participating in.

A group of people have been arguing for a long time. In fact, except for the Mayor of Madrid Don Banderas and the three nobles, most of the people here are the bottom nobles, and the representatives of the big nobles have no power to help them. What promised the owner.

So this meeting seems to some people to be redundant.

But Alexander insisted on holding this meeting.

There are only two topics for the meeting.

How to get along with the nobles of Valaridod?

How to treat Ferdinand?

This second issue actually has a more important potential problem, and that is how to treat the descendants of Isabella!

Because of Isabella’s unexpected death, and Juana’s constant crazy actions because of Philip, people did not pay much attention to Juana’s children.

Eleanor, Juana and Philip's first child, a little girl who is only 4 years old this year, Alexander met her in the court of Valladolid.

Charlie, Juana’s second child, although he was born because of his noble blood attracted attention, but people only take him as a natural heir.

But Alexander knows what kind of character this child will become in the future.

Because these topics involve too much, the little nobles have no opportunity and power to speak up.

However, because how to get along with the nobles of Valaridod was closely related to their interests, the woods became extremely lively.

Don Bandraz has been quietly watching those little nobles arguing, and he sometimes glanced at Alexander, who was sitting there silently, which made Don Bandraz more certain and vague. Something guessed.

While in Madrid, Don Bandraz has already noticed that Alexander’s ideas in some places seem to be not at odds with Isabella, which makes him feel that they are indeed from the Astamara family.

Now he was more certain that his previous guess was correct.

There is no doubt that Alexander has no interest in continuing to maintain this status quo in which the nobles hold many powers.

Like Isabella, he is seeking a more efficient way of ruling that also reflects the authority of the monarch.

He thought of Sebastian Don Capendi, the warden that many people were reluctant to work with.

Don Bandraz, who knew the cause from relatives in the capital, was one of the few people who knew why Don Capendi was exiled.

Don Capendi originally proposed to Isabella to establish an independent inspection system, and this power will ultimately be in the hands of the Queen.

This proposal, which was originally in line with Isabella's heart, was strongly opposed by Ferdinand.

Ferdinand was worried that this might arouse the aristocracy's disgust, but in fact he was worried that the queen's power would be too great, which would eventually adversely affect him.

In order to appease Ferdinand, Isabella exiled Don Capendi to Madrid as the warden.

However, judging from this arrangement, she may not have the idea that one day the time is ripe to re-enable this person.

But no one thought that Isabella was dead.

No matter what considerations she had at the time, Isabella became the one who ruined Don Capendi's future and ideals.

Resentment may not be possible, but after Isabella's death, Don Capendi obviously did not interrupt his allegiance to Isabella's descendants.

And Alexander's reuse of Don Capendi made Don Bandraz see something different from it.

Don Bandraz believes that he cannot read it wrong, and Alexander even left Don Capendi in Madrid.

Alexander's importance to Madrid can be felt by Don Bandraz, so he left the warden at this time instead of bringing him, not because he didn't trust him, but because he was given a heavy responsibility.

And what makes Alexander take him so seriously is not just that he sent someone to look for Juana before.

Don Bandraz remembered the reason why the warden was exiled by Isabella, which made him think he might have guessed Alexander's plan.

The nobles were still arguing, but Alexander seemed to be a little impatient.

He stood up silently and looked around at everyone. With this action, the people who were arguing slowly became quiet.

Everyone's eyes were on Alexander, and their eyes were hot and excited. For these people, the meaning of this moment is absolutely unimaginable.

"What I want to say is that I will not be an enemy of Vallitod."

As soon as Alexander spoke, many people couldn't help but stunned, but he didn't stop because of their accident and went on.

"We shed the same blood as those in Valladolid. As Castilians, we are no different from them, so why do we have to fight with them?"

"But they still refuse to come to greet you. This is contempt and hostility to Castilian orthodoxy."

Hearing someone say this, Alexander didn't show any joy because he was complimented. He glanced at the nobleman who had opened his mouth and vaguely recognized that he should be a knight who had joined after passing through Torresillas.

"Why would I be considered hostile because I didn't meet me?" Alexander asked the man. "If I am the king now, then I would agree with you, but I am no different from you now."

Alexander's words made the nobles a little dumbfounded. Many people wanted to refute but knew how to say it. The only thing that could be expressed was their magnanimous admiration for the Duke.

But Don Bandraz heard something different from Alexander's words.

Sure enough, the duke's ambitions can not only be satisfied by the throne of Castile.

Don Bandraz thought this in his heart, and his gaze at Alexander became serious.

"Our march is peaceful. Our only weapon is loyalty to Castile, so we can't put the sword on our brother."

Alexander quickly looked at the people sitting around.

He noticed that the faces of those people were different at this moment, some of them were unhappy, and some of them seemed indifferent, but they still showed a sigh of relief in their behavior.

Looking at them, it became clear to Alexander.

The Vallitod nobles obviously still have concerns about how Alexander will treat them in the future, and because of this, many people have been slow to respond.

But now Alexander's words seemed to relieve them.

"I am the prince of Castile, and this is destined to be my responsibility and obligation."

Alexander did not conceal his ambition, and he also knew that only in this way could these people feel relieved. Seeing the excitement that people could not hide after hearing his words, Alexander said in a slow but unusually clear tone:

"This throne dispute did not involve any personal grievances, it was solely for the inheritance of Castile, so I solemnly promise here that I will not retaliate against anyone due to personal grievances, the new Castilli The Asian court will treat all nobles and civilians in a fair manner."

The two scribes in charge of recording quickly narrated Alexander's words on the writing board, and at the same time, the two looked at each other from time to time, as if they wanted to find out whether they had missed something from each other's expressions.

Don Bandraz sat aside and listened carefully to Alexander’s speech. He didn’t know what value this discussion and speech would have in the future, but it was different from others who immediately became elated after hearing this. Don Bandraz heard something strange in it.

All nobles and civilians will be treated in a fair manner.

This sentence didn't sound strange, but Don Bandraz was keenly aware that for the first time Alexander compared aristocrats with civilians.

In other words, at least it put the civilians in a position close to that of the nobles.

This has never been seen in previous monarchs.

Does this duke want to become a "common people's king"?

Don Banderas quickly denied that as soon as this thought flashed in his mind, he didn't think Alexander wanted to be such a monarch like Louis XII of France.

So, what he wants to say is to treat nobles like commoners?

Don Bandraz's heart suddenly jumped. Thinking about the warden who seemed to be busy in Madrid by Alexander, Don Bandraz could not help but palpitations secretly.

Alexander had already walked to one of the scribes at this time. He took the manuscript paper from that man and looked at it carefully, as if he was confirming whether his words were recorded accurately.

Then he picked up the pen and wrote the subject of "St. Martin's Protocol" on the top of the record.

Alexander couldn't help but smile when he looked at the name of the subject. The reason for choosing such a name was actually because it was Saint Martin's Village, and this conference really couldn't say that it was a declaration.

So he simply gave such a plausible name.

Then, in the blank space below the record, he signed his name in a fancy font that is rarely seen today.

Looking at the somewhat unfamiliar signature, Alexander UU read www.uukanshu.com for a moment, before handing the record to Don Bandraz next to him.

This is the first time that he has signed the full name of "Joel Modilo Astamara" on an official document.

Someone hurried over on horseback in the distance, and it didn't take long before the man was taken into the woods by guards.

It was a scout sent out to investigate, because he ran all the way, as if he had just been fished out of the water at this time, a lot of sweat stains were splashed on the road he walked.

"His Royal Highness," the scout immediately gasped and reported when he saw Alexander, "The news that I just heard, a riot broke out in Valaritod, and the palace has been sealed off!"

Hearing this, everyone was in an uproar, and then immediately looked at Alexander.

At this time, although Alexander was also quite surprised, he did not hesitate after seeing people's eyes, and immediately issued an order: "Now is the time, follow me into Valladolid."
