"That's great, brother-in-law, I like you the most!" When Avella heard that William had agreed to accompany her on a tour of Paris, she happily took William's arm as if she were in the arms of a bird.

The pure fragrance was intoxicating, and the subtle touch of his arm made him feel like he was in heaven.

"You're enjoying it, William." Uraka suddenly said coldly.

Looking at Uraka's terrifying expression (William's perspective), William brushed a cold sweat and quickly pulled out his arm, "What's the matter, Uraka, you are too careful." ”

However, it seemed that the more the depiction was getting darker, William's disguised words made Uraka more suspicious.

Staring at him with his wife's scrutinizing eyes, William felt as if he was on a scorching grill.

Although the matter of the sister-in-law is known to everyone in the Celestial Empire, where can this be said clearly, not to mention that there is a fierce woman like Uraka by his side, how dare he take an inch.

In order to get out of the embarrassing situation, William hurriedly changed the topic and said: "By the way, Uraka, did my father-in-law agree to withdraw from the mutual defense agreement against me this time, you must have succeeded in coming back this time." ”

"That's natural, as my father's favorite daughter, my Queen Uraka, is naturally handy." Uraka said proudly, "You see, this is the document that my father has entrusted me to bring to you, and it is the terms we have agreed upon. ”

"Thank you, my wife Uraka." William took the document from Uraka's hand, opened it and read it carefully.

"Uraka, my father-in-law is telling us to have more children so that we can inherit your kingdom of Samora, right? Then we'll have to work hard. William said with a playful look on his face, his eyes fixed on Uraka, and in a teasing tone.

"How can you say this in front of your sister." Uraka hugged William's arm and said shyly.

"My Uraka can't be such a bird." William thought in surprise as he looked down at Uraka, only to find this amazing scene - he saw Uraka looking sideways at his sister Avella, clasping his arm tightly as if he were demonstrating to his sister.

Urakar's move made William smile bitterly, he was swearing sovereignty to his sister at this time, telling Avella that he was her private property, and that he should not want to touch it.

"Maybe it's a special interaction between sisters." William thought.

Sandwiched between the two sisters, Uraka and Avella, William felt that Alexander, so he changed the subject again and said, "Uraca, Avella, is my father-in-law going to launch a holy war against the Emir of Zaragoza against Aragone?" ”

"Yes, brother-in-law, my father has been preparing for this for several months, and recently he has begun to secretly gather the noble knights of Castile, and now the holy war against the Emir of Zaragoza is ready to be launched." Avella spoke first, and with that she gave her a defiant glance at Uraka, as if to be angry with her.

"William, my father has asked you to send Norman cavalry and at least one regiment to join this war, which is one of the conditions of my father's willingness to withdraw from the mutual defense agreement." Unimpressed by Avella's provocation, Uraka introduced William.

"Of course, it is a great honor that my father-in-law has also helped me many times, and has sent a large army to help me defeat strong enemies several times, and this kindness is still firmly in my heart." William agreed to this condition without hesitation: "I have heard that the emir of Zaragoza is very wealthy, and that the Ebro River runs through it, with its vast and fertile valley plains, and that handicrafts and commerce are also very developed, it is a rare opportunity to make a fortune to participate in the Aragonese Holy War and seize the lands of the infidels."

Therefore I hope that your father will promise me that my Norman knights and soldiers will keep the booty he has plundered, and that I will also wish to buy Moorish prisoners. ”

The Ebro River is the second longest river in the Iberian Peninsula, with a length of 910 km and the longest river entirely in Spain, originating in the Cantabria Mountains and flowing southeast into the Mediterranean Sea.

The Ebro River is wide and gentle, with excellent water accessibility, and the city of Zaragoza is located on the edge of the Ebro River, which was the fifth largest city in Spain in later years, and its wealth was one of the most prosperous in the Middle Ages, otherwise it would not have attracted the coveting of Ferdinand I.

Because of the southeasterly course of the Ebro, the Castiers could take advantage of the river that flowed into their leadership and easily followed the Ebro down the river to the city of Zaragoza.

With the condescending geographical location, the water transport conditions of the Ebro River and the internal rebellion of the Emir State of Zaragoza, William could not think of any reason why Ferdinand I could lose.

How could William not be involved in such a sure war, especially when the mutual defense agreement existed, and he could not carry out it against the Christian countries, so he had to turn the finger on the infidels for the time being.

Although William's side could not obtain any territory of the Emir of Zaragoza as reinforcements, it was still very profitable to plunder a large amount of wealth from this Aragonese holy war.

Moreover, once the war began, it meant that a large number of Moors began to flee, and these Moors, who supported the commerce, crafts and agriculture of Zaragoza, would become slaves and be sold everywhere by the Castilians. These skilled Moorish slaves were of great help to William and the kingdom as a whole, not only by bringing with them the most advanced agricultural and irrigation techniques of the Moorish world, but also by adding luster to William's crafts.

"These requests are not excessive, and my father will agree to you at all." Uraka said confidently.

"Thank you, Uraca, and I'll order Duke Rodrigo to go south to Zaragoza via the Kingdom of Navarre, after settling the rebellion of Benate II, Duke of Gascogne." William immediately promised.

"I'll write to my father here." Urakar nodded in response.

Just as the two of them had roughly finished discussing the matter of the Aragonese Holy War, Avella intervened, took advantage of Uraka's inattention, hugged William's left arm, and said coquettishly: "Brother-in-law, when the business is done, then accompany me to Paris for sightseeing, and remember to accompany me alone." ”

After saying that, Avella glanced at Uraka defiantly, as if she had a chance to win.

Just when William was embarrassed in the Shura field, suddenly his son Richard came over from outside and asked, "Are you a little aunt?" ”

"Avella, this is my son Richard." William picked up Richard and said to Avella: "I'll stay and take care of him later, and you'll have a good time in Paris with Urraca, and you'll be out of company." ”

After saying that, William said "sorry" to Uraka and turned to leave with his son.
