News is news, the key is what people who see the news, especially those who have the final say, think about it, that is the most critical and core question.

We don't know what Philip II's mood and behavior were when he received this payment notice, but it must not be far off.

Imagine that the person you trust the most is actually doing small things behind your back, subverting the foundation of your dynasty for money, as a ruler, what other choice is there than to let him die nine times and not be able to live beyond his life?

Little Alfred himself was also shocked by my methods, and it was absolutely impossible for ordinary people to find someone from the Bank of Venice to directly commit perjury. Although the 300,000 gold coins were taken from his father's overseas vault, this was not the key at all, the key was the source of the money, not the money itself.

I laughed at this question and didn't answer it. It's better to keep my relationship with Crisson in my heart, it's like a knife, it's not terrible to stick it in the scabbard, and it doesn't have a deterrent effect after it is completely pulled out, only the cold half out of the sheath is the most deterrent state.

Seeing that I was silent, and little Alfred was also a high-level person, he naturally didn't ask much, but asked me another question that was closely related to him.

"Qilan, now that the evidence is available, what should I do in this part of the trial? After all, the trial is not my authority, His Majesty the Emperor only said to hand it over to me, but he does not have this authority! ”

"Of course I know you don't have this permission, so aren't you going to push this hot potato out?" I didn't feel embarrassed by this, because I had a plan in mind before I went to Crisson.

"Push it out? How to push? Little Alfred looked dazed: "Push around, it's just a military court or a maritime court, where else can it be pushed?" ”

I picked my nails disapprenously, and smiled casually: "Then leave it to them for trial, can it be that you put on a judge's robe to try this guilty person?" ”

Seeing my carelessness, little Alfred was annoyed, walked over quickly, grabbed my sleeve, shook it vigorously a few times, and then said loudly: "What nonsense are you talking about here?" ”

As he spoke, he lowered his voice and continued, but his hand clenched tighter: "Neither the military court nor the maritime court has complete qualifications to hear this matter. And there is another question, the vast majority of the people in these two tribunals are involved in Charznan's father, de Guzmán, should they let them retract their confessions in court and make me disgraced? ”

But I still remained silent: "It can't be fake, it can't be fake, are you afraid that they will be able to go to heaven?" ”

Seeing that I was so sure, little Alfred didn't panic, he glared at me for a long time, and suddenly let go of his hand and laughed: "You must have a way!" I know, you must already have a mature solution, so there's no rush at all, right? ”

I looked helpless, and continued to pick my nails and said lazily: "Oh, it's hard for me to be a creditor!" Not only to help the debtor succeed in the position, but also to constantly put forward new ideas, how to negotiate the price? ”

Little Alfred slapped me on the arm and laughed, "Don't talk nonsense here!" As long as I go up, there is mine and yours, are you still afraid of this? ”

I smiled indifferently and said, "I'm afraid! What's the hardest thing in the world to solve? It's the human heart. I'm afraid that once you ascend to the sky, you will turn your face and don't recognize people! ”

Little Alfred also calmed down, in fact, deep down in his heart, why didn't he have this thought?

Borrow my hand first, and when the dust settles and he sits firmly on the fishing platform, it is difficult to say whether he will fully fulfill his promise today.

But through a period of in-depth contact, little Alfred has completely dispelled this idea.

He witnessed my move after move, and the endless flow of moves was dizzying, and it already made him feel deeply frightened.

If I do this to the enemy today, if he turns against me tomorrow, will I do the same to him?

In little Alfred's heart, people like me have been included in the list of people who must not be offended, and they are still very high, so they are naturally very polite in their attitude.

"Qilan, how many times have we brothers gone back and forth, and finally today, there is no need to say these words anymore, brother, I am not someone who needs to be tempted. In a word, if there is mine, there will be yours, let's support each other and get rich together, okay? Little Alfred's tone was very sincere, and it should not be a hypocrisy.

So I smiled and replied, "Okay." ”

When this old brother saw that I agreed, he immediately smiled and said, "Then you say, how to deal with this matter more appropriately?" ”

I raised my eyes to look at him and asked softly, "Is the affair of Charznan's affair with Britain confirmed now?" ”

Little Alfred nodded: "If you have a brother, this matter should be considered solid." ”

I asked, "What is the biggest point of divergence between Britain and Spain?" ”

Little Alfred didn't understand what I meant, but he still replied seriously: "The contradictions and disputes between Britain and Spain have a long history, but the most acute ones are nothing more than maritime interests and sectarian contradictions. ”

When he said that, I laughed and didn't say anything.

Little Alfred didn't understand what my attitude meant, but when he saw that I was silent, he understood that I was asking him to find the answer in what he had just said.

"Maritime interests? Charznan was involved in harming Britain's maritime interests, but the crime was not punishable by death...... Do you mean ......?!" Little Alfred's eyes widened suddenly, and he looked like he was a ghost: "In this way, will it be too vicious?" ”

I said calmly: "Small amount is not a gentleman, no poison is not a husband." Whether you want face or lining, you decide. ”

As soon as these words came out, little Alfred stopped talking. He looked at me fixedly, as if he had only known me on the first day.

"There's no room for conversion at all. Moreover, there is no doubt that Charznan will die! Little Alfred's voice trembled.

I looked at him and said: "Political struggle has always been your life and death, if you don't even have such courage and determination, then I suggest that you should disarm and return to the field as soon as possible and be a rich man." ”

In a word, little Alfred, who answered correctly, was silent. After looking at me for a long time, he asked, "But if we want to do this, we don't have enough evidence." ”

Hearing him say this, I couldn't help but shake my head and smile bitterly: "Dude, can't you use your own brains?" How the hell did you get to where you are today? ”

Little Alfred was suddenly blushed. After thinking for a while, he suddenly asked, "What do you mean...... Let me do it from himself? ”

I laughed again without saying a word.

Little Alfred stayed on the spot, but I added softly: "The materials need to be prepared by you, and you can find ink to do it for the specific implementation." ”

This guy saw that I had even straightened out the implementation links, and knew that I was determined to win. So he gritted his teeth hard, and after three more minutes of making up his mind, he suddenly slapped the table and turned his head.

Looking at his back, I whispered to myself: "That's all I can send you, and the rest is up to you." ”

......

Three days later, Alfred the Younger formally wrote to King Philip II, proposing a clear plan for the trial of Charznan.

And his plan caused a big uproar among the courtiers, most of them thought that he would make a big deal into a small matter in this matter, but they didn't expect that little Alfred would actually come up with such a desperate plan!

Philip II, on the other hand, had no objections, and it is said that after reading Alfred Jr.'s report, he immediately nodded in agreement, and signed his name heavily on the plan.

Why is it the name of the religion that is signed? The reason is very simple, this is what Alfred Jr.'s proposal calls for -

"In view of the suspicion that the suspect has fornicated with British Protestants and overturned the country's politics and religion, it is hereby submitted to the Religious Inquisition that Gudorova and Charznan de Guzmán be tried!"

With this sentence, Charznan has been firmly nailed to the cross of historical dust, and he can't turn over anyway.

And it was also this sentence that made little Alfred fall into the nickname of "Butcher of the Black Hand", and accompanied him in his life as the commander-in-chief of the Armada and the Minister of War.

But he himself was not ashamed of this at all, but felt that this nickname was quite powerful and domineering, adding three points of pride to himself, and never shied away from others calling him so.

In short, this is also wonderful, and I am very disdainful of being in the company of this person.

According to Alfred Jr., on the very day that Philip II approved the plan, Charznan was sent to the headquarters of the Ecstatic Inquisition, northwest of Madrid, known to the outside world as the "Ice Fortress".

Why the name? According to insiders, all of the cells in this inquisition are located underground, and it is extremely cold all year round. Ninety out of five people who go in can't get out, and half of them don't live long.

Because such an extreme environment is too damaging to the human body, under the double torment of body and mind, even if you can come out alive, how can you live as a normal person again?

So on the day he was sent to the prison of the Patriarchal Inquisition, people already regarded him as a dead man, but even more chilling things were yet to come.

The deacon of the Ecstatic Inquisition led several referees to conduct a raid on several houses of Charles South in Madrid and Villarreal, and in addition to finding a large number of gold and silver treasures of unknown origin, what is even more terrible is that many new Christian secretaries, picture books, and propaganda brochures were also found, which are no different from those that have appeared in various parts of Spain in recent years!

Sit down. There is only one way people know about Charznan.

If it was a bit far-fetched to say that he was guilty of corruption and bribery, passive sabotage, etc., now Charznan has become the target of everyone's shouting and killing!

"Is that really good? Qilan. Little Alfred asked me, "Are we too much?" ”

Instead of answering his question, I gently placed the two pieces I was playing with on the table.

Those were two knight pieces in chess, one black and one white. I gently pushed one with my hand and erected one; Then push to the other and stand up the remaining one.

Little Alfred looked at the chess piece in my hand, silent, and never mentioned a similar topic again.

Because that's the law.
