"Your Majesty, the last time I saw you, it seemed that you didn't have such a beautiful woman by your side."

The streets of Székesbehárß Castle were still a bit noisy at this time, and although it was originally a military fortress, many of Hungary's trade flows are inseparable from the transit of this fortress.

"There should be no shortage of gypsy women here, in essence, I, like them, have only been favored by His Majesty John." Carrouette gracefully lifted the glass in front of her, her slender ring finger just clasping the edge of the carved handle. Then he lifted the glass to forty-five degrees, rolled his neck twice, and the glass of wine went down most of the time.

The court etiquette Kalujie has been studying for less than a month, but she already has infinite elegance in her gestures.

"If I hadn't been mad, I probably wouldn't have associated you, such a beautiful and touching aristocratic lady, with them." Hunyadi asked the guards to pull back the rest of the room, and his tone became serious, "If you plan to kill Frederick III by assassination, I'm afraid it will be very difficult. ”

"It's the only practical option, and as long as it's not discovered, we don't have to lose too much if we succeed or not. The shadow of Procuple and Athens still lingers today, and we still have to deal with the thousands of Ottoman troops, and we don't have much energy to devote to the Western Front. Johann smiled bitterly, "At least after Crazlå V came to power, Austria could not make any waves in the German Empire." Although I have not seen a widow, judging by the means by which Ulrich solved this problem, he must be a man who is not very smart. ”

"He's still quite young like you. Mehmed II was also very impulsive as a child, and in a few years, he had developed into a sultan enough to lead an empire, so it was not appropriate to characterize Laszló V so hastily. ”

John and Sophia's immediate idea was to cut off the Habsburg roots. Laszlo was undoubtedly a better man to control than Frederick. John knew in his heart that the threat posed by this young family, if left unchecked, would not be revealed in a matter of years.

"László is the only orthodox heir to the Habsburgs other than Frederick, and it should also be good for Hungary to remove the covetousness of other Austrian nobles and push him to the throne." Agrippa stood up and walked up to Hunyadi in a long voice, "Although Frederick's death will make it confusing to determine who will win the title of Emperor of the German Empire, but a crippled Duchy of Austria, Your Majesty Hunyati, you should be able to clean it up, right?" ”

"Crippled? Even if Frederick III had died, it would have replaced Austria with a younger ruler, both of whom belonged to the Habsburg dynasty. Perhaps there will be a whisper among the nobility that the foundations of Habsburg rule will be shaken, unless the killers you send can easily deal with László V. Hunyadi laughed.

"You don't really think that the Empire is a philanthropist and would do such a high-risk job as killing a king for Laszló V just for the sake of temporary stability on the west side of the border, right?"

"I just can't guess what kind of symmetrical chips Laszlo can give."

"We need the Duchy of Austria to be our reliable wartime ally for the time being. To put it simply, after our next official campaign with the Ottomans, we need the full support of Austrian armies of two or more corps. ”

Because of the silence of the people, the palace was once again covered with the noise of the market.

"I wonder how you can guarantee that Laszló V will deliver on his promises." Hunyati, who sat down again, had a strange look in his eyes.

Using the military as a bargaining chip is an extremely risky move for both sides. As long as the supreme control of the army is in the hands of the Habsburgs, there is a possibility of mutiny at any time and place. The Fourth Crusade was a bloody lesson, never trust an army outside your borders.

And the Austrian army was, in fact, the mercenaries of Rome. De jure, the military-funded empire of the army also needs to bear a part. Although Hunyadi did not have a deep understanding of the economy, as the commander-in-chief, the expeditionary expenditure of an Austrian army could easily exceed tens of thousands of ducats, which translates to 30,000 marks or more. You know, the initial military expenditure of the Fourth Crusade was only 50,000 marks. This is only the cost of food and salary, and does not include any other losses.

Hunyadi probably had an estimate of how many children were left in the empire's pocket, and such a blank check should not be a decision made by the shrewd John. But the staff advisers in the empire don't seem to be meaningful.

After thinking for a moment, Hunyadi asked again: "Can you all handle and avoid the follow-up problems of mobilizing the Austrian army?" ”

"We can control the Habsburgs in the way that the Habsburgs do best." John smiled mysteriously, "Your Majesty, do you think the Habsburgs are now ...... Or what worries Laszlo's mother, Elisabeth, the most? ”

László V's claim to Bohemia, including Hungary, took a lot of effort on her part, and the years of house arrest were probably more tormenting than her son's. But if his son ascended to the throne, it meant that the Habsburgs could face the risk of extinction. ”

The rise of this family, which is now famous in Europe, was only due to the fact that Emperor Gregory X was anxious to find a puppet emperor to re-stabilize Catholic rule, and perhaps Gregory did not realize that the Habsburgs now almost had a hereditary claim to the title of Emperor of the German Empire. For the Habsburgs, the heir of any royal family is an incalculable loss.

What's more, all inheritance rights are now concentrated in the direct Austrian bloodline.

Even the ability to control Bohemia was secondary, and Elizabeth's greatest desire was for Laszllo V to have a son as soon as possible.

"Our great Duke of Athens, the great general of the Empire, Lord Latius has a daughter of just the right age, young and elegant, very suitable for ......"

"Are you going to marry the Habsburgs?"

Hunyadi directly interrupted John's rambling conversation.

Such a move would give the Empire better control over Laszlo's army, but it would also lead to a strange triangular alliance between Austria, Hungary, and the Eastern Empire.

You must know that the border friction between Austria and Hungary has never stopped, and if this marriage is concluded, it is likely that Hungary will no longer be able to extract benefits from the European continent.
