Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    After a heavy rain, the forest is filled with the freshness after the rain.

    The smell of earth filled the forest, and a group of knights rode proudly through the forest, and there were many of them.

    Several carriages with black carriages drove in the center of the knights' queue and were closely protected.

    One of the carriages is the most luxurious. Although there is nothing visible from the outside, it is inlaid with gold lace patterns on the inside.

    Wearing a black lace tutu, with long golden hair tied into a bun behind her head, Queen Mary leaned in front of the open car window, looking at the scenery passing by outside the car.

    After the rain, the road was very muddy and became very bumpy.

    In the seventeenth century, there were no asphalt roads, let alone cement roads.

    Mud roads like this after rain are quite common.

    "Your Highness, we have arrived at the northern suburbs of Marseille. It will only take us a while to reach the manor."

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

    At this time, a knight wearing a half-length cape with a golden pattern came on horseback. He gestured sideways and said to Mary, who was leaning against the window.

    "Send a person to inform us and order everyone to speed up. We are already a lot late and don't make people impatient."

    "Okay, Your Highness."

    The knight straightened his body and turned his head in response.

    Then, the knight urged his mount to rush out, and then shouted loudly: "Everyone, speed up."

    At the same time, he called a knight and whispered a few words to him. The knight nodded and galloped forward on his horse.

    This large group of people is none other than Queen Mary of France.

    After she received the news that Zhao Hongyu had come to Marseille, she immediately prepared to come and meet Zhao Hongyu.

    ¡°But it must be troublesome for a woman to prepare, so a lot of time is wasted.

    In the blink of an eye, almost half a month has passed.

    But it¡¯s okay, half a month.  Now Mary finally arrived near Marseille and was almost at the manor.

    Mary withdrew her gaze and sat up straight.

    "Mary, do you think it will be difficult to deal with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince from America?"

    At this time, a deep male voice sounded from opposite Mary.

    It turned out that Gaston I, Duke of Orleans, was sitting opposite her.

    It is said that Queen Mary had an affair with this guy. From this point of view, it is probably the same.

    Mary shook her head after hearing this: "I don't know very well. I don't have much information about the American crown prince, so I can't give a rough inference, but no matter what, I think we should talk to him.  We have a common theme, don¡¯t we?¡±

    Queen Mary has something to say.  Gaston understood that she meant the widows of the Samuel family.

    "The administrator of Marseille has been dealing with His Highness during this period and has provided some personal information about the Crown Prince, but none of it is worthy of attention. I only have general information about the Crown Prince's age and family here.  "

    Gaston said to Marie.

    "Oh, tell me." Although it wasn't too important information, Mary was still very interested in knowing it.

    Gaston said quickly: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince from America is only sixteen years old. Although he is much older than little Louis, he is still a young man after all. He is already married, and his wife is a  A girl who is about thirteen years old. This girl is the queen of 300,000 Indians in Manhattan, America. She has absolute rights in this area."

    Gaston told Mary everything he knew about Zhao Hongyu.

    Mary listened very seriously.

    "You know the rest of the information. Sarah is also the wife of the crown prince now, but her status is not inferior to that of the Indian queen. And I heard that this Indian  The queen. She is also a person who is very talented in music. She also has good swordsmanship, which can be said to be both civil and military. "

    No matter how powerful the Indian queen is, she has nothing to do with Mary.  She is not Zhao Hongyu's wife, so she doesn't care about this matter.

    So Mary said: "Do you have any information about the crown prince? As for the information about his wives, I am not very interested."

    Marie interrupted Gaston and said impatiently.

    Gaston nodded and said: "Of course, it comes from the mouth of the Indian Queen."Some information came out.  ", the Duke of Orleans said with a smile.

    In fact, Gaston had no idea that the information that the Marseille administrator got from Emma was also fabricated by Zhao Hongyu and Wang Shan.

    You must know that Zhao Hongyu was originally a person from later generations. There are no so-called relatives in this world, he is just a lonely person.

    ¡°Don¡¯t look at what he was bragging about about the Song Empire and the Song Empire earlier. In fact, it was just nonsense.

    ¡°It¡¯s just that now, relying on the bullshit of the plug-in Zhao Hongyu, it looks very similar and has covered everyone.

    "The crown prince of the Americas is the sole heir to the Song Empire. His father has been seriously ill and has not long to live. His mother died when he was young, and there is no one else in the royal family of the Song Empire. Therefore, this crown prince will not live long in the future.  Taking over the empire is a sure thing."

    That¡¯s all Castro knew, and he didn¡¯t want to know any more.

    It¡¯s easy to agree. That¡¯s all the information Wang Shan and Zhao Hongyu have released to the outside world.

    After listening to Gaston¡¯s words, Mary sighed.

    "I really envy this crown prince. It seems that there are no obstacles for him to take over a huge empire, as long as he wants to. Unlike us, we have to clear countless obstacles and troubles to do this."

    Mary is talking about her own affairs.

    ¡°After all, the domestic relations among European countries are very chaotic, with countless interests entangled in them.

    That¡¯s exactly what she said.

    Therefore, she sincerely envied Zhao Hongyu.

    "For this young man who will take over the huge empire in the future, we need to lower our posture and try to win his favor. After all, most of our current finances are filled by the profits earned from American goods.", Mary  Looking at Gaston seriously, he said to him.  "If we offend His Majesty, it will affect the share of goods to a great extent, and our finances will deteriorate by then."

    Gaston nodded, knowing that what Mary said was true.

    Indeed, the French domestic economy is not very good now, and they owe a huge foreign debt.

    This alone is not enough, they also owe a lot of personal debts, which need to be made up by buying goods from the Americas and selling them, and making profits.

    ¡°In addition, they went to the Quebec colony, and France¡¯s economy suddenly became more like that of America.

    Therefore, they must not offend this American prince.

    You know, there are countless people rushing to touch the butt of this American prince, hoping to get greater benefits from him. There will definitely be no one who is stupid enough to offend him.

    "Mary, do you think this American crown prince has any purpose in coming to Marseille?"

    Gaston lowered his voice and asked.

    Mary smiled and said: "Of course, everyone has a purpose for doing things, and they don't do things for no reason. So I concluded that he must be very interested in the widows of the Samuel family. Maybe it's just right.  It¡¯s not necessarily Sarah who brought the crown prince to Marseille.¡±

    "You are saying that the purpose of this crown prince is the women of the Samuel family. Does he want to take those women away?" Gaston's eyes rolled around, looking a little wretched.  "No, these women are our good cards. If they are taken away by him, wouldn't we have nothing to threaten Sara?"

    Gaston lost his voice in frustration.

    When Mary saw Gaston's behavior, she felt very disdainful.

    ¡°Hmph, if you weren¡¯t needed to suppress the royalists, why would I bother having an affair with you.  He is simply a useless idiot, and he can actually say such things.

    But despite her disdain, Mary still needs to rely on the power of Duke Gaston to suppress those who resist her in the country.

    So, on this issue, she needs to explain it to Gaston.

    " Otherwise, if he brought Gaston to see Zhao Hongyu so recklessly, something would really happen.

    Gaston is a complete idiot. If it weren't for the fact that he is a duke, Mary would really give him a slap in the face to make him understand.

    "We are destined to give those women from the Samuel family to Sarah, and I can't stop you at all. Do you have any other means to stop Sarah from taking these women away? I think you should understand,  We can't stop it, right?"

    As soon as Marie said this, Gaston slowly calmed down.

      Yes, what means can I have to stop Sara from taking these women away? None at all.

    But he was very unwilling to watch these women being taken away like this.

    "I know you are very unwilling, but there is nothing we can do about it. If this is the case, then we might as well do a favor and return these women to Sara. Of course, we are not returning these women in vain.  She needs to give a little something to her."

    Mary had already guessed the intention of Zhao Hongyu and his party, and had made plans to deal with it.

    Mary is not a stupid woman, on the contrary, she is very smart.

    "It's a pity that no matter how smart she is, she can't guess the real purpose of Zhao Hongyu's trip and what he really cares about.

    Those women from the Samuel family are all insignificant people to Zhao Hongyu.

    If necessary, it is not impossible to sacrifice them.

    It¡¯s just that there¡¯s no need for it now.

    As for Sarah, she knows who she should support at critical moments.  (To be continued.)
