After a little wait in the living room, it was Liana who received Bran.

As the wife of the consul and the daughter of the duke, Liana is now full of luxury, wearing a multi-folded skirt and a slight bulge in her lower abdomen.

Although she once had a crush on Bran, after marrying a wife, she was already thinking about the interests of her family and husband.

When she spoke to Bran, she was very polite.

The two chatted about a cup of tea, tested each other, and ended when they heard footsteps upstairs, and Bran also wished the unborn child by the way that he would be the next consul.

When Liana knew that her grandmother was coming down, she got up and took her leave.

"Bran."

A noble lady shouted as she descended the steps, supported by a handsome young man.

Mrs. Meghan has a good complexion, holding a fan in her hand, and the man next to her is probably her little lover.

When Bran stepped forward to give a kiss, the man looked at Bran very vigilantly, probably afraid that he would rob him of his "interests".

This kind of etiquette Bran himself is quite annoying, who knows who kissed the person, who kissed his hand just now, isn't this a mutual saliva?

But Mrs. Meghan loved it, and Bran could only do that.

"Madam, this is holy water from the Hebrew Springs in the Holy City of the East."

"I've heard of this fountain! Legend has it that it was a dry place, and a priest of the Prophets, after being killed by a heretic, suddenly burst into a clear spring. Am I right?"

"Yes." Bran nodded, but thought that it was probably because he later discovered that there were water veins in the ground, and what was dug up was just ordinary water, but it was casually contaminated with legends, and it had a beginning.

"I've heard that you can use it to keep your face youthful."

Women always love beauty, and this gift Mrs. Meghan likes more than gold.

"I wish you good health for the gifts brought back by the brothers of the Fellow Believers (Templars) sent to the East."

Originally, Mrs. Meghan was going to keep Bran, but suddenly a servant stepped forward and brought a note.

After reading the book, May and Madame remained silent, and then coughed a few times, and immediately a servant told Bran that Madame had something to do, and that he might be asked to wait for a while, but he was not sure of the time.

After a few words of greeting, Bran got up and prepared to leave.

As he walked out the gate, Bran saw two yellow-and-black men talking to a stable not far away.

Bran has no night blindness and has excellent eyes.

The two were burly.

As Mrs. Meghan's butler walked towards the two men, the two men put one hand on their chests, bent one knee slightly, and then put their palms forward and outward.

A Gentile man came so late? I was suspicious.

Bran thought about getting into the carriage.

As soon as the carriage left, Bran fiddled with the action himself, and soon thought of it—a greeting from North Africa.

During the days of the Knights, they should also learn the etiquette of various places and know how to deal with them.

In the heyday of the "Abbasid Dynasty" in the East, in addition to controlling Jerusalem and the Sinai Peninsula, and even expanding the territory to the vicinity of Tunisia, the dynasty was divided and some went to the Iberian Peninsula further west.

As a result, the entire southern Mediterranean has been used for nearly 200 years in Persian (the official language of the Abbasids) for communication.

As a result of taking in the North African warrior Desley, Bran also learned some Persian vocabulary and ceremonial movements from Desley.

Bran had a habit of going out of his way to find out the truth when he wanted to know something.

He returned to his stronghold in Meath City, the Good's Inn that had once been run by Simon.

It was decided to release the four mercenary scouts and ambush them in the four routes they would take after leaving Lady Meghan's mansion.

The next day, when Bran was patrolling the city, a mercenary secretly reported to Bran that they were being followed, and two of them had been following the carriage this morning.

"Let them go back and see which noble house they come out of."

After waiting for a day, Bran received the truth, it was one of the two nobles in the Great Commercial Hall the day before yesterday.

And the news of the return is not limited to this, one of the scouts sent out was almost caught while following him.

The scout had an interest, and when he was bored, he liked to draw something, and he would draw the head of one of the Gentiles who appeared to be the leader.

The picture was somewhat similar to what he had seen in Rome, and after a few moments, Bran knew who it was.

A court minister from Africa and the son-in-law of Chaisu, Ian Aishou.

This man was extremely ugly, and Bran was very impressed.

After the Chaisu Navy seized the island, the images of him and Yi An were transmitted to the Knights Templar for everyone to recognize.

At such a sensitive moment, Ian himself came to Florence in person?

Do you want to negotiate a secret agreement?

"No one found out, did you?" Bran asked.

"No, Your Highness, I was wearing a mask when I was chased."

"Okay, let's go back to the manor and hide first."

"Yes."

After everyone dispersed, Bran thought about the situation and judged that Mrs. Meghan was going to join forces with them.

Blanche was right, Mrs. Meghan has been closely monitoring the changes in commercial power in the Mediterranean.

For nearly twenty years, under the iron-fisted measures of Luyo II, there was no chance for her to penetrate, and now that the papal giants have fallen, she took advantage of the time to send an envoy to attend the Great Rite of Remembrance, and also set off from the open sea to enter the port of Tunis.

And it happened to be discovered by Yi'an's fleet in the middle, and the letter was robbed on the spot (it can also be said to be delivered suddenly).

The messenger was Vice President Goou, and after a conversation, the two sides had their first mutual trust contact.

In order to show his sincerity in cooperation, Yi An risked being captured, and headed north west of Italian waters, then entered northern Italy by land, and then came to Florence by horse.

Bran felt that the current situation was very dangerous, and if Luyo II fell, even the Kingdom of Jerusalem, which had just married the Pope's niece, in the East, could go against the decision of Rome.

At that time, the Knights Templar may also split into "Romans" and "Quds".

It is not always a way to send people under the fence, and it is necessary to have a base.

Bran decided to go back to the manor to discuss with his grandfather, wanting to marry "Vesta of Swabia" as soon as possible.

After marrying this princess, his status with Albert will be much closer.

What someone else gives you, it's someone else's.

The idea of becoming an archon even rose in Bran's heart!

Since it is a commercial republic, why can't you become the standard-bearer of justice when you have enough noble support?!

Madame Meghan gave them the shelter of the Charman family, but they were not completely selfless, and when her grandfather was sheltered, several centuries-old jewels of great value were given to her, all of which were to be given to the mistresses of the Duchy of Venice in successive generations.

My grandfather once had red eyes and said that he had personally placed the jewels on Grandmother Bran's body.

Formed a Teutonic mercenary group and also acted as a thug for the Quake family.

Carol took the risk herself, went on several mercenary missions, and was left with a knife wound on her neck.
