Rosacea ran all the way, and now he just wanted to run for his life.

The madness of plundering and raging on the sea in the past has long since turned into fear.

It is obviously not a good idea to run directly from Torlisteas to Barriariddode, this road is a full 5 fats, this distance for many ordinary people, it may be impossible to get out of such a distance in a lifetime, and it is not easy to run such a large distance at night.

Rosacea didn't really know where he was supposed to flee, and he was terrified, none of his companions had escaped, and they seemed to want to kill him or catch him, but it wasn't a good thing anyway.

Because he had to send Sister Alfurt to Barriariddod, he instinctively ran towards the Castilian capital after escaping.

The distance in the Five Laws was not very far, but for Rosacea, it became a nightmare for him.

Because of the cold weather, he had to keep moving and still keep himself warm, although his mouth was dry and sometimes cold and sometimes hot, and because he couldn't see the road clearly, he didn't know how many falls he had, but after the day was already dawning, he finally came across a carriage that had been working in the fields early.

Exhausted, his murderous nature allowed Rosacea to take the risk of robbing the poor peasant.

After knocking the man unconscious, he snatched the carriage, and after putting his clothes and lunch with him, he drove the carriage with rye bread in his mouth, and hurried towards the Barriariduds.

Behind him, Don Bavi, who was already a little tired from the excitement, got up early and went to see Sister Alfurt a little anxiously after a night's rest.

He wanted to find out from the nun who was secretly working against him, and although there were some guesses, he still wanted to be sure before making a decision.

To his undisappointed indeed, he quickly got the answer, and when he heard that all this was a trick played by the Duke of Rome Thesia, Don Bavi coughed again in anger.

"I misread that man, he's an enemy," Don Bavi said to a few of his cronies, "think about it, think of him when he first came I thought he could be a friend, and he did a good job, but he betrayed me." ”

"My lord, perhaps you should consider returning to Seville at once," suggested the man who had spotted the clue earlier, cautiously suggested, "Now it seems that the Duke of Rome Thesia, even if he is not an accomplice to Ferdinand, is not at ease with you, and it is dangerous to go to Vallaridos. ”

Don Bavi hesitated, the reason why he agreed to go to Barriarido to negotiate this time was of course because he had more or less an advantage on the battlefield and had enough capital, but more because of the disappearance of Sister Alfurt, which suddenly deprived him of the opportunity to borrow the name of the orthodox descendant of the Astamara family.

In this way, he had to take advantage of the advantage on the battlefield to accept the king's proposal for negotiation, and he also knew that the Andalusian nobles obviously wanted to negotiate with the royal family as soon as possible, and if it dragged on for too long, there might be a split within the Andalusian nobles' coalition.

After all, the nobles rebelled not only to be deprived of their privileges, but not to overthrow the rule of the current House of Astamara.

Don Bavi was well aware of this, and even he himself never wanted to seize power by overthrowing the monarch, but only wanted to use Sister Alft to achieve his goals.

Now that she had gone round and round, Sister Alft had returned to him with a lost return, and his intention to negotiate with Valaridot now had been slackened.

And now it is indeed different, when he first heard about Isabella's death on the road, Don Bavi actually had the idea of turning back, and in his mind it was much more difficult to deal with than Isabella Ferdinand.

After all, he and Isabella had shared ups and downs, and he thought he knew the queen well, but Ferdinand was a different story entirely.

To many Castilian nobles, loyal to Isabella or not, Ferdinand was not a good man to them.

Even when Isabella was alive, Ferdinand spared no effort to eradicate those who tried to get in his way, and now that the queen was gone, the nobles of Castile were even more worried about their fate.

Don Bavi hesitated, knowing that returning to Seville at this time would mean closing the door to negotiations with Barriaridot, and that once the war in the north was over, Ferdinand would spare no effort to put down the rebellion of the nobles in the south.

But now that he had Sister Alft in his hands, he seemed to have a new reliance.

It was a difficult decision to make which choice to make, and Don Bavi was a little undecided for a while.

In the end, he decided to stay in Torlistias for the time being, and then see what was going on.

The man who had advised him to return to Seville as soon as possible had a look of disappointment on his face, and he looked at the men next to him, and seeing their equally helpless expressions, he could only stand aside and wait for the Duke to make his final decision.

Rosacea's next encounter was quite smooth, perhaps because of the luck that had been brought to him by the previous catastrophe, and he drove the carriage and ate black cakes all the way straight to Barriariddode, and by the time it was almost dark in the afternoon, he had already seen the outline of the city of Barriariddo in the distance.

It was only then that he felt that he had saved his life, but he still had to rush into the city to report it.

The errand was a complete mess, and he was now worried about how Blackbeard would punish him if he found out.

It wasn't that Rosacea hadn't thought of escaping, but he was now empty-handed, and all his savings were in a so-called bank in the new colony, which James had encouraged him to do, and in return was a sum of interest that would normally squander his expenses.

Now he regretted listening to James and depositing all his money in that damn bank, but he had no choice but to rush back to report the news because he had no money on hand.

The old school street is still so secluded, although mourning ceremonies are held throughout the city because of the death of the queen, but it has not been affected much because of the remote terrain.

Alonso Beruguete climbed up to the window on the second floor every day and waited, hoping that the Lord Normezi would return soon, and after being taken to the palace by the lord, Alonso Beruguete was completely fascinated by the incomparable art treasures in the palace.

To his surprise, Mistress Normezi told him that the Palazzo Valaridot was a remote country compared to the treasures of the palaces of Naples and Florence, which were truly mecca of art.

This made Alonso Berluguet even more eager to one day make a pilgrimage to the great places of art, and if he was lucky enough to become a student of a master, it would be a blessing from God.

However, to Alonso's disappointment, Master Normezi was not heard from until some time ago, when a man who claimed to be a friend of the adult moved into his home.

The man named Tiego was a wealthy merchant, generous and generous, and seemed to know many noble people in Barriariddod.

Except for sometimes coming back late to bed, that Tiego was busy outside all day, but he was not so bad to the Alonso family, not only did he pay a good rent at one time, but he also bought Alonso a lot of painting items.

And according to him, this was what Lord Normezi had told him.

As to where the Lord Normezi had gone, the lord of Tiego did not elaborate, but he said that the count might have left Castile and returned to Naples, and it was not clear when he would return.

Alonso Jr. was disappointed, and he ran to the window all day long, hoping to see the Count suddenly appear on the street in front of his house.

This morning, he climbed to the window on the second floor and looked out as usual, most of the people on the street were wearing dark clothes, which was mourning for the queen, so that the atmosphere on the street was very oppressive, and his parents had told their siblings not to go out and make trouble during this time.

A figure that looked a little out of place on the street suddenly appeared at the corner of the street, and the man walked forward in a panic, bumping into people and not caring about them, which caused people to curse.

Alonso Jr. quickly noticed the man, and somehow although the man was still far away, he had a feeling that the man was coming from his home.

While he was still pondering, the man walked straight to the door of his house, and then disappeared under the eaves.

Then there was a hurried and rude slamming of the door downstairs.

Rosacea sat at the table and stared at the couple standing opposite, he didn't really know who he was going to report to, he was supposed to send Sister Alfurt to the house in Old School Street, and it was not his business to do next.

But now that things have gone wrong, he can only report it to the people who are waiting here to talk to him as soon as possible, but what he didn't expect was that the family didn't seem to know what he was talking about, which made Rosacea's already bad mood even more irritable.

If it weren't for the fear that Blackbeard might be severely punished, he would have been rude to the couple who didn't know what to do.

"Are you here to find Lord Tiegor?" Little Alonso, who had been hiding in the stairwell and listening to the quarrel below, suddenly asked, and he cautiously poked his head out and said to the man who looked terrible, "This is the old man Tiego who lives with us, and he is a friend of Master Normezi." ”

Rosacea, who was in a bad mood, immediately ran over like a life-saving straw and grabbed Alonso by the ear and grabbed him from the upper floor: "Tell me where this old man Tiego you said, I have something very important to tell him." ”

"I don't know where the lord is," Alonso, who had just finished saying this, rubbing his reddened ears, saw the rosacea's face change, and then hurried, "But the lord should be back soon, he usually comes back late, but now it's about the same time." ”

Rosacea breathed a sigh of relief, he sat down again, picked up the cup on the table, took a sip of water, and then said to the couple angrily, "Get me something to eat, I'm dying of hunger." ”

After speaking, he added: "Ask the old man for money, and he will pay the bill for me." ”

Alonso looked at the stranger who suddenly broke into his house with some fear.

Although the old man Tiego also came uninvited, the old man was generous and not rude, but the man in front of him was simply a robber, which made him a little worried about the old man.

It is true that Tiego came back a little late, and during this time he was very busy in Barrialidod, constantly dating people and being asked by others.

Isabella's death has affected too many people, and many are skeptical about what will happen in the "post-Isabella era".

Thiego knew many people in Barrialidode, and if he had been very comfortable with merchants and minor nobles, now with his relationship with Maria de Luna, the doors of the great nobles' homes had been opened to him, both in Zaragoza and in Barriaride.

Thiegor was also a little surprised when he saw rosacea, and although he had a wide range of friends, he was sure that he didn't know this guy who didn't look like a good person.

"James asked me to come."

But Rosacea's words made Thiegor know where he came from, and he took out a few kopecks and handed them to Alonso's mother, and after telling her to prepare a dinner for the two of them, beckoned Rosacea upstairs.

After entering the room and closing the door, rosacea grabbed a chair and sat down in annoyance, staring at Tiego with an unkind gaze, as if he might pounce on him and choke him by the throat at any moment.

"So, James told you to come to me?"

"Yes, but I'm the only one, everyone else is dead." Rosacea stared at Tiego with a bad look, "And we lost that woman." ”

Listening to Rosacea's words, Tyego did not become furious because of the failure of the plan, he listened carefully to Rosacea's account of the whole thing, after which he got up and walked to a cabinet against the wall, opened the door, and took out a heavy money bag from it and threw it on the table.

"I think it's yours."

Rosacea ripped open the rope of the money bag, poured out a few gold coins from it, and turned it in his hand.

It's just that the heavy feeling of the hand has already let him know that these gold coins are full of color, and he bit it hard, looking at the shallow tooth marks on it, the look on his face became slightly better.

"My companions, they're all dead," Rosacea put away the purse and looked at Tiego with a gloomy face, "I don't know what you're trying to do, but is it worth it for the sake of that woman?" ”

Tiego didn't speak, he glanced at rosacea, and took a slightly smaller purse from the drawer of the table and threw it over.

"That's enough to make it worth it."

Rosacea picked up the purse and pursed his lips, knowing that he had only so much to got.

Although he was very curious about how many of these money bags were still in the cabinet on the wall, he knew with a little cunning that there were some people he should not offend.

At least none of the people who deal with "Blackbeard" James are easy to provoke.

Rosacea had already figured it out, and after this trip he broke up with James, who had painted a wonderful picture of a wonderful future, but the bloody massacre of the previous night really scared him.

It's not like he hasn't killed people before, and he can't remember the bad things he's done, but none of his previous adventures can compare to this one.

He was lucky enough to get what he was supposed to be paid equally with a few of his companions, so he felt both lucky and secretly afraid, because he found that the man in front of him, who seemed to be a rich man, was really terrible compared to his own pirates.

He remembered James's instructions when he sent them to pick up the woman, saying that they didn't need to know who was going to take the woman from them, because they would show up when the time came.

Then they can go to a house on the old school street in Barriaridud to get paid.

The errand didn't sound like a lot of trouble, they just had to take the woman all the way to Barriridod, and someone would pick her up on the way.

But he never imagined that the way the men would take the woman would be like this, and rosacea remembered that when he jumped out of the window, a sword stabbed from behind almost slid against his back, so that he still felt a burning pain in his back.

At first he really thought that the men had come to kidnap the woman, but when he saw Tiego, and the other party didn't seem to be surprised by his presence at all, he realized that the so-called "people who would come and pick up the woman themselves" were the ones who almost killed him.

Rosacea was not afraid of death, and he had jumped on a robbed ship many times before anyone else, just to get an extra share of the spoils.

But now he was scared, he felt like a fool and sent himself into a trap that others had already designed, or that he had to count the money for being sold by others.

Rosacea felt that he was old, and he felt that he was nothing compared to these old men who could calculate others without moving.

Tyego didn't care about rosacea, he got up and walked with Rosacea to the door, and opened the door for him, watching the pirate disappear at the top of the stairs, and after a while Tygo immediately followed him downstairs.

He greeted the Beiruguet family and walked out the back door of the house, and after passing through two alleys, he suddenly turned into a house, but quickly came out of the back yard of the house, and then got into a carriage that was already waiting at the back door of the house.

In the short time he was on the road, Tiego had already written a letter quickly, which he had just finished when the carriage had stopped.

Getting out of the carriage, Tiego looked around, where it had stopped in an inconspicuous corner, and not far across from it was the great mansion of Don Makrosbein, the treasurer of the Kingdom of Castile.

Thiegor handed the written secret letter to the coachman, and watched the coachman quickly put it away and drove away in the carriage, and Thiegor waited for a while before walking towards the small door that the treasurer had prepared for the servants.

The small door was ajar, and as he reached the door, it opened softly, and a woman in a black robe appeared in the doorway.

She had obviously been waiting here for a while, so she was visibly relieved to see Tiego.

She didn't wait for Tiego to speak, but she said impatiently, "I'm sorry, my husband can't meet you right now, but he has told me to wait at home for him to come back when you come." ”

Tiego nodded respectfully, and he followed the treasurer's wife through the kitchen, which Uliuu used to visit, and then went up to the second floor to a very secluded room.

The treasurer's wife herself brought bottles and glasses to Tiego, and then she cautiously closed the door and left Tiego alone.

Tiego drank slowly, wondering how to deal with the treasurer for a while.

I don't know how long it took, but as the door suddenly opened, Don Macrosbyne, the treasurer, walked in.

The treasurer wore the same style of clothes he used to like, but some of the ornaments had been removed from the garments, and in their place were a large patch of blackened silk.

The treasurer who had walked in looked silently at Tiego, and after a moment he extended his hand to Tiego and motioned for him to sit down at the table.

"So, Don Bavi won't come to Barriadot?" Don Makrosbeine asked.

"Yes, he will soon return to Andalusia, and rest assured, soon the situation in Andalusia will change, and then a respected soldier will be needed to preside over the overall situation," Tiego raised his glass to Don Maklosbyne, "so have you figured out which general to recommend?" ”

"Of course, we all know that there is one person who is the most suitable," Don Maklos Bine also raised his glass and drank it down, "Gonzalo Córdoba." ”
