Chapter 325: Uraka
Wen Yan comforted his eldest daughter Uraka, Ferdinand I turned around, looked at William with a serious face, slowly pulled out the long sword at his waist with his right hand, and then pointed to William and said:
"William, Uraka is my beloved daughter, the eldest princess of Castile, even if the king bullies my daughter, I will beat him too.
Draw your sword, William, and fight me fairly like a man. ”
Ferdinand I was born in 1017, and he was only 26 years old, and now he was at his strongest, and compared to William, who was developing his body, he had a great advantage in terms of physical fitness, physical fitness, and experience.
Looking at the confident Ferdinand I, William was not timid, and also pulled out the long sword at his waist and confronted Ferdinand I, and the duel was about to break out.
"Father, stop." Princess Uraka ran between William and Ferdinand I with her skirt in her hand, and raised her hands to stop her.
"What? It's hard to take you to let go of this stinky boy, how he treated you before, have you forgotten? Even if the king and the emperor dared to treat my daughter like this, I would not give up and would have to beat him flat. Ferdinand I's face was full of surprise, he couldn't believe that the daughter in front of him was not his ulaca.
"I'm willing to marry him!" Urakar whispered with his head down.
"What? What do I hear? Daughter, what do you say again? "Ferdinand I buckled his ears, did I have so much earwax that I had auditory hallucinations? He looked down at his daughter, Ulaka, trying to see something in her expression, but found nothing.
"I'm willing to marry William!" Urakar raised his head, blushed, and repeated in a slightly louder voice.
After saying that, Uraka ignored Ferdinand I's stunned expression, returned to William's side and said, "William, did you propose to me just now?" ”
William nodded, no doubt, no doubt.
"Then you must marry me, and you must remember that I am your betrothed."
Hearing this, William also showed the same shocked expression as Ferdinand I, he felt that he had too much earwax, and he had auditory hallucinations, and it took him a long time to react.
"If you don't marry me, I'll let my future husband kill you!" With that, Uraca ran back to Ferdinand I's side, mounted his horse and left.
Wandering down the street, a tall and handsome man appears unexpectedly, he stops you, puts his arm around your waist, and asks you to marry him.
Not every woman will encounter such a good thing, especially if the person is her own fiancé, a handsome young and promising king and duke.
Of course, not every domineering president can use such a fierce move to gain the admiration of a girl, before that, you might as well look in the mirror and look at your wallet, if it weren't for William's young and promising, tall and handsome, Uraka would not eat William's set.
It can be said that the conquest of women is the touchstone for men to conquer the world.
After Uraka left, Ferdinand I felt that his actions were a little redundant, but he didn't expect that he didn't see that his daughter Uraka actually liked William, and he wasted all his painstaking efforts, so he had to stand there awkwardly, the smile on the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.
"Put away your weapons, what are you doing here, William is our son-in-law of the Castiles." Ferdinand I raised his hand and shouted an order to his knights to put away their weapons and remove the encirclement.
"Ferdinand, I'm really sorry, my impulsiveness is likely to have very terrible consequences, and if it weren't for God's willingness, Princess Urakar would have been kind-hearted today, and the Normans and Castileans, who were originally close allies, would have shed bloodless here." William stepped forward, bowed deeply to Ferdinand I, and sincerely apologized to him.
"The cause of this incident is also because my daughter Uraka was quick to speak and hurt you with words, and I apologize to you on behalf of Uraka. We're even, William. Ferdinand I accepted William's apology with a smile.
"Ferdinand, I have come to Burgos this time to invite you and Urraca to my coronation, and I will be crowned King by His Majesty the Pope in the great hall of Rouen." William received Ferdinand's forgiveness, smiled, and extended him an invitation to attend the coronation.
"I promise you, William." Ferdinand I nodded, stroked his palms and smiled with emotion. "You are not simple, you must know that Charlemagne was crowned King of the Franks, and he was also crowned by His Majesty the Pope in the city of Rome.
It seems that your relationship with His Majesty the current Pope is not ordinary, congratulations, William! ”
"His Majesty the Pope and I are also allies who support each other, and inviting him to coronate me has also paid a lot of price, which is very worthwhile." William replied truthfully.
"Yes, His Majesty the Pope's own coronation is the most authoritative, enough for all the Christian lords of Europa to recognize the legitimacy of your throne." Ferdinand I nodded and commented.
"By the way, William, you have worked so hard to get here, you might as well rest in Castille for a while, and have a good time exploring this place." Ferdinand I invited.
"I'm sorry, Ferdinand, I'm in a bit of a hurry this time, Normandy still has a lot of things to deal with, and I really can't stay any longer."
William was a little regretful, he also wanted to stay in Castile for a while, but he thought that there were many things that he had not explained when he came out, and he had just established the Norman kingdom, and a lot of things were left to Count Hubert and Uncle Adolf to deal with, and he felt a little guilty.
"In that case, then I won't keep you much, but at least I can rest in the Burgos Palace for 10,000 tonight, it's not easy to walk when it's a little dark, and it's the same if you set off tomorrow." What's more, my wife, Sancha, wants to meet you too!" Ferdinand I no longer insisted on it, but resigned to the next thing, hoping that William would stay in his palace for one night.
"Then I might as well be respectful."
In the evening, William attended a dinner at the invitation of Ferdinand I, and he was very familiar with the Ferdinand family, and the conversation was very lively.
Ferdinand I's wife, Sancha, was also very enthusiastic about William, and she looked at William with an expression like a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law, the more she looked at it, the more satisfied she became, and from time to time she shushed William and asked for warmth, which made William a little overwhelmed.
William also met his two brothers-in-law at the banquet, the eldest prince Sancho, who was only 7 years old and had a tiger head, and the second prince, who was only 4 years old and had a good appearance, was Alfonso, and the third prince Garcia was still young, so he did not attend the banquet.
William seemed to have a unique talent for attracting children, and his two brothers-in-law sprang around him all day long, chattering endlessly.
