027. I'll make you Basile Lea
This war is known as the "Franco-French War", or the first "Franco-Italian War".
Bran did not invade an inch of the Franks, but drove all the Franks out of northern Italy.
This event had a profound impact on the Korean Peninsula, and French was originally a powerful and noble language on the peninsula.
The two countries fought against each other, and a culture of respect for the Italian language arose in Milan.
Bran repelled the foreign enemy, and his prestige increased again.
In order to prevent another Frankish invasion, Bran still sent people to Paris to reconcile.
Milan won without taking an inch of land, and Franks lost without losing a mile.
The reason for the retreat, Bran also found out.
The northwest coast of the empire was under attack by the Vikings, while England was governed by the dual politics of the Black Prince and the Long-legged King.
The rise of national power also threatens the Normandy region to the north.
Frank declared victory internally, as Bran sent an emissary to Paris to sue for peace.
And Simon, who had been imprisoned in Paris, finally regained his freedom.
After more than half a year of house arrest, I was worried every day, in case Milan lost, my life would not be guaranteed.
The pressure made him change his temperament drastically.
When the messenger from Milan saw Simon, Simon was starving.
The Franks did give him food, but Simon ate and vomited.
The messenger of his country was heard, "Your Excellency, we have won." β
Simon burst into tears and finally shuddered, "I'm so hungry, get me a cake." β
But he couldn't even bite because he was weak, so he could only soak the cake softly, dip it in wheat porridge, and eat it in small bites.
He was married to a Frankish girl, fifteen years older.
Simon is more than old enough to be his father, but male and female are the norm for aristocrats.
This woman is young and lovely, and Simon finally feels that the past half a year has not been in vain.
The couple were baptized in Frankland and then marched south with the carriage.
Simon asked for the carriage as fast as he could, and he did not want to be in the land of the Franks for a moment.
Of course, if you bring troops to attack in the future, then it is a different matter.
The Frankish maiden was shy and kept her head down the way.
On the day of the wedding, he looked up at Simon, and he didn't dare to look at her husband for any other time.
Although Simon is not good-looking, he is old.
But many of the girl's elders, relatives and friends, were married to older men, and she had a cousin who was only thirteen years old when she married a fifty-three-year-old baron.
She gave birth to a child at the age of fourteen.
In contrast, I am already very lucky.
Simon has followed Howard for so many years, and he has subtly learned a lot about the Grand Duke's approach to women.
He can't do this kind of thing.
He said to his wife, "When you come to Milan, you are the countess, and I will help His Highness with his affairs on weekdays, and I will not return to the territory often, but you must study Italian well, and at the same time you must remember the destiny of a wife, and do not easily fall into rumors, disgrace me, and help me to have a child." β
Simon was born as a priest and was fluent in French, but the girl could only speak Italian and could not write.
Therefore, if the nobles of other countries marry abroad, if their status and financial resources permit, they generally have to hire a private noble teacher or priest.
Often, because of this, the person being taught has feelings for the person who is being taught, and gives birth to many illegitimate children.
"I see, Your Excellency."
"You should call me husband, or by name."
"Hmm." The girl's face turned red again.
Simon wanted to tease his wife, but by this time the carriage had already reached the border.
When he saw a wooden fort outside the carriage, he asked the knights outside.
These knights were the people promoted by Simon in his county, and Bran specially sent these people to pick up Simon this time.
"How can there be such a castle, built in wartime? Who is the castle owner, and how is it so similar to Hilde's family crest?"
"You are right, my lord, Lord Hilde has fought bravely and meritoriously, and His Highness promoted him to the rank of Vice-Earl, and gave him the right to collect customs duties here for three years, as well as this Black Ink Fortress, which His Highness named the Ink Castle and gave it to Lord Hilde.
This time, Lord Heard was in the limelight, and it took a few days to build the wooden fort. β
Milan is now boasting about the city, saying that it was built in one night, hence the nickname "City of One Night".
"Stop, I'm going to get out of the car and have a look!"
After Simon got out of the car, he looked around Fort Mo, less than a year before the founding of Milan, Hilde, this kid, climbed to the vice-earl!
Simon was not happy to see that the carriages had to pay an entry fee to the first guard of Castel Mercion before entering the inner territory of Milan.
Then he got into the car and asked the driver to go straight over.
"Don't pay me, I want to see, they dare to charge my car?"
Eventually, the men of Castle Ink saw Simon's Black Eagle family crest that Bran had given them, and let him pass without any hindrance.
Simon was smug and said to the girl in the car, "In Milan, I am the existence of the three highnesses. β
Watching Simon's carriage pass, the Morburg sentinel took out a heraldic book from the territory of Milan.
muttered to himself, "This is one of the nobles who the adults confessed and couldn't charge." β
Hilde didn't want to offend the nobles in the realm for a little money, in fact, he didn't have any money from any nobles in the principality.
This won him a lot of favor.
People also gradually called him, generous Hilde.
At this time, Hilde also hugged his first child and sang happily.
Although it was born by a mistress, it was always his own child.
He also had one with Never's wife, but he died young.
This time it's a boy, and he's going to take good care of it.
Bran remembered his hard work and gave him a month's vacation to return to his actual fiefdom for a vacation.
When Hilde returned to the realm, a knighthood ceremony was also held.
The object of the seal is Tuqimu, who was born as a pirate.
As the first retainer to be canonized himself, Heard was excited.
He rehearsed many scenes of the monarch's canonization, and in order to avoid his short and ugly scenes, he also created a pair of wooden high heels, covered them with robes, and made himself appear taller, to 1.6 meters.
Not counting Castle Mo, Hilde has two towns.
He generously gave a town to his subordinates.
He believes that people must not be stingy, and he gave half of the land to Tuqimu, although it is not a huge territory, which may verify his intention to treat his subordinates.
Hilde opened the aristocratic heraldry and thought about a lot of patterns, but then he thought about it, why should he follow the arrangement of his predecessors?
So he also created his own family crest.
He knew that Tuqimu liked to taste honey, and he made the tiger bee, one of the most ferocious bees, his family crest.
And change the tentacles of the tiger bee to a sharp sword.
Tuqimu did not feel that something was wrong, and happily accepted the reward, and he now admires Hilde.
At first, he was rescued from the execution ground, and he didn't want to be loyal to this dwarf, but he had nowhere to go.
But some people are born to lead.
When he first served Hilde, he was drunk and misbehaved and was punished in public.
Tuqimu was angry and wanted to betray Hilde, and bribed some bandits to rob the territory.
But when the robbers betrayed themselves and caught themselves before Hilde, Hilde said, "You have betrayed your master, and Tuqimu remembered my favor only to rob some of my goods and leave, so I will kill you, not him." β
The ten thieves were all beheaded, Tuqim did not die, and Hilde gave him money and a few of his men.
"Take them with you if you want to leave, or stay and work for me, and every year I will triple your salary until you become a baron."
After this time, Tuqimu slowly subdued the short Hilde.
The clergy, the people, the women, and ten times under the watchful eye of the sword.
Tukimu broke away from his commoner status and became a Milanese nobleman.
Landless knights are attached to lords, and there are not many landed knights.
Most knights struggled all their lives, sometimes only to get a bridge, a post, a river, or even a small piece of woodyard.
These people are also considered to be real knights, but they do not live a comfortable life.
There are more than 300 people in the town of Tuqimu, and he can live a very decent life.
"From now on, you will be my knight, and your title will be loyal."
Loyalty is one of the seven virtues, and in the future, Hilde made six more nobles, a total of seven people around him to assist him.
On the home crest of these seven people, there will be a star cross hanging high.
This star cross corresponds to the golden cross of the Hilde family crest.
Therefore, in the future, these seven people will have another prestige name, known as the "Seven General Stars".
......
On the island of Trois-Rivières, Edvina had just returned from meeting Sehir in Athens.
As soon as I got ashore, I had just finished bathing and changing.
His wife, Helen, crept in behind him.
Then he picked up his long nails and hugged Edwin behind him.
This tingling sensation, he knew was his wife.
As soon as he turned around, his wife pushed him down.
"Are you unfaithful to me when you go to Athens?"
"What nonsense? I have always been by His Majesty's side. β
"If you say it doesn't count, the astrologer said, today is a good day to have children, I want you, if you can't satisfy me, then you are lying!"
The long pointed nails grazed Edwin's fragile cheeks, causing him pain.
And then ...... Helen bit Edwin's lip again.
"You're crazy!"
"Shut up! Dog man!"
Helen was almost frantically begging.
She didn't know who her biological father was, and although everyone said it was a giant, the giant never admitted it.
And the father who raised him went to bed with him when he was very young.
From a very young age, she hated everything in the world.
She swore that she would choose a man she was satisfied with, and if she couldn't choose, then she would turn this man into what she was satisfied with.
She loves Edvenna in her own way and wants to change him.
Eventually, Helen suddenly calmed down, lay on Edwin's body, and began to cry.
Edwin thought for a long time, and he didn't know how to comfort him.
On the first day of the wedding, Helen told herself everything she had experienced.
The unspeakable scars on his body also let him see.
Originally, it was just a political marriage, but as time passed, he was distressed and angry about what happened to Helen.
Finally, he patted Helen on the back, "I will definitely make you 'Basile Lea',
One day, I'm going to do what the giants can't do, and I'll take you to Luo!"
The Purple Emperor, also known as Basilius, is derived from an ancient saying, and his spouse is called Basilea.
Hearing this, Helen, who had been crying, suddenly changed her face again,
"So, you like me to bully you, you dog man."
"Slut, don't bite my nose...... It hurts!"
