Chapter 309 The Heirs(1/2)

When Ferdinand racked his brains to find a way to deal with the nobles of Zaragoza, in Valladiote, Alexander also had a headache because of a difficult problem.

Reports about wars in the front frequently came from the initial encounter with the Aragonian army near the dam on the upper reaches of the Ebro River to Gonzalo that the coalition forces were trying hard to get out of the floodplain and preparing to advance to the western plateau of Aragon, the entire war did not seem to be as smooth as originally thought.

This made the Barriardotts worried.

Many people are not very worried that the war will encounter disadvantages because of this. What they are worried about is that the war may fall into a protracted quagmire.

The Iberian Peninsula has not fought for more than ten years, and the long-term peace has allowed many people to adapt to this environment without gunpowder and war.

It is precisely because of this that the rebellion in the south shocked Valliedo's court.

But the rebellion ended with a result that everyone could accept, but the war between Yu Aragon was different.

Aragon is an equally powerful country, and the Astilians began to worry that this would make the two countries fight endlessly. Some older people still remember that from the Castilean throne to the final recovery of lost territory, the war lasted for almost two generations in the era of Isabella.

So when I heard that Gonzalo's advance was slow and the war might have been delayed like this, some people began to complain secretly that this was obviously inconsistent with the Queen's promise.

The complaints behind these have not yet appeared in front of the Alexander brothers and sisters, which means that at least people's dissatisfaction has not yet reached the point where they cannot be tolerated.

Moreover, not everyone expressed pessimism about this war. Some military nobles who felt bored for too long were happy, and those lower-class nobles and officers who felt that they had no hope of promotion in peacetime were happy.

What they are looking forward to is that the scale of the war can be larger, so that they can give them more opportunities.

Alexander did not have any luck in the war with Aragon.

There is no doubt that Aragon is a powerful country, and it is a delusion to think that it can be completely eliminated in a very short time.

He knew that Ruosha would never plan this war with such unrealistic ideas, so although the war seems to be a little slow now, this should be expected.

So it wasn't these things that gave Alexander a headache.

Looking at Ruosha sitting in the rocking chair opposite, holding a fine cup and eating candied candied fruit in small bites, and seemed to feel very comfortable because of the sour and sweet taste, Alexander couldn't help but rub his forehead gently.

"I really didn't expect it," Alexander said, not knowing whether he was happy or worried, "Why didn't we have that before, but these few times..."

"This means it's time," Ruosha said, taking another bite of candied fruit, and then narrowed her eyes into crescent moons again. At this time, she looked exactly like a greedy little girl instead of a queen and commander. "Are you unhappy?"

"Of course I'm happy. I almost fainted when you told me yesterday." Alexander knocked his finger on the forehead with a little scared. "Oh my God, we were... that position was really dangerous."

"But you insisted on doing this at that time, right?" Ruosha looked at Alexander with a serious look. Then she suddenly lowered her voice and asked curiously, "Look at your skillful appearance, tell me if you and other women often do this?"

Alexander raised his head and looked at Ruosha in a daze. He never expected Ruosha to ask him such a question. His mind instinctively flashed through his past "experience" and even briefly evaluated his feelings with every woman. Then he unexpectedly discovered that what seemed to satisfy him the most was Barenti.

Then he shook his head suddenly and forced himself to face the difficulties in front of him.

Ruosha is pregnant, and this is both good and bad news. As Ruosha herself said, she suddenly told Alexander about a special time, a special place and a special experience.

At that time, her words "This won't work, I'm pregnant." Alexander almost scared her to the point of making a deal!

He immediately panicked and put Ruosha on the bed carefully, then stared blankly at his sister lying there looking at his smiling smile. After a while, he suddenly began to turn around on the ground like a madman, and then shouted outside: "Come here, female official! Sher! Where are you, Valaqiya idiot?"

Alexander's shouting immediately alarmed many people. Fortunately, the waitress seemed to be ready. She took away the attendants who had heard the news and asked Sher to take a few hunting guards to guard the corridor outside the door, and then hurried into the room.

Seeing the queen lying there safely, the waitress breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at Alexander, who was standing next to him with a disgusting look.

Then she looked at the messy look in the room and said with a little dissatisfaction: "Your Highness, please allow me to offend me to remind you that your Majesty's current situation is not suitable for too intense activities, so please restrain yourself a little."

The female attendant's words left Alexander speechless, and he could only look at Ruosha who seemed to be very fun lying there helplessly.

Alexander didn't sleep well all night. He was busy busy with that, and for a moment he treated Ruosha as an exquisite porcelain doll that could have something to happen if he touched it.

This made Ruosha feel very fresh, especially when she just said casually that she wanted to eat honey candied fruit, Alexander immediately asked someone to look for her overnight. Ruosha felt happy and a little angry.

He must have been so attentive to other women. This idea made Ruosha feel a little puzzled, because she had never had these boring thoughts in the past. Well,

"It's really not the time," Alexander sat opposite Rusha at this time and said with a little concern. "I originally thought I should wait until you return to Naples or Sicily before getting pregnant, so that you can get the best care in your own court, but now I'm very worried."

"Don't worry about this," Ruosha seemed to have restored her majesty as a queen at this time. "I have a powerful army, which is enough to ensure my greatest safety. I also have faithful followers around me. The key is that for them, only if I am safe and sound, can they have their future, so you don't have to worry at all."

Alexander nodded silently. He found that even though he was pregnant, Ruosha was still the sister he was familiar with. This probably made him think that Ruosha was his best partner.

"I want to let Burley come to Barrialido," said Ruosha, seeing Alexander seemingly confused, he whispered to remind him, "It's my brother, the child born to my father and the maid, do you still remember?"

"Of course," although he could hardly remember that person, Alexander immediately agreed, "I still remember you pulled the trigger at me with a musket without hesitation. If I hadn't tampered with that gun in advance, we wouldn't have been like this now."

Thinking of the scene when the two first met, Ruosha couldn't help but feel a little moved. At that time, they would never have thought of the scene now, let alone the two of them making plans for their children's future.

"Berry has been staying in Kosencha to help me take care of my territory. I want to transfer him to my side to serve as my guard captain." Ruosha's hand unconsciously stroked her lower abdomen. "He will protect the safety of our mother and son, and will also be a good uncle."

Alexander thought about it and nodded slightly. He knew that Burley and Ruosha had a deep relationship, and it would be reliable to give Ruosha to him for care.

Moreover, at this time Ruosha didn't even transfer people from Naples and Sicily, but from her hometown of Kosencha, where she grew up, which shows that she had made the most cautious plans.

As her half-brother and servant, Burley is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate.

The Queen of Sicily suddenly became pregnant in the Stilean court, and the child's father was missing, which was enough to cause too many speculations.

Perhaps some people would only think that this was Alexander's method, using someone from somewhere to get the queen pregnant to restrain Sicily, and may even be concerned about the influence of the uncle and godfather of the future Sicily king to influence neighboring countries.

And as long as you are a little more complicated, you will think of something that seems unlikely but is really just the only reasonable explanation.

This will inevitably cause an uproar.

The Castiles may not admit that speculation out of various concerns, but Alexander's enemies will definitely use this to promote it.

Alexander had already thought of this kind of possibility, so he and Ruosha hoped to have a more proper arrangement before, but this kind of thing really doesn't seem to be completely controlled by human resources.

Sometimes the passion that is completely unaware of is too devoted to both of them forget the precautions they should have, and a new life suddenly became born under this situation.

"Then let's face this small new problem."

After a little "joyful worries", Alexander decided to face the reality. He simply relaxed and began to seriously think about how to deal with this sudden situation. After all, besides Ruosha's pregnancy, there were other problems that he had to face.

As a father who already has four children, if nothing unexpected happens, it may be the first time Alexander has experienced his own child from birth to birth.

He had decided that as long as the situation did not change irresistible, he would not let Ruosha leave her side.

Perhaps he was really a little biased. He never wanted to be with his woman like now and wait for the moment when their children were born.

"When will Barenti come to Barrialido?"

It was just Ruosha's question that made Alexander, who was secretly excited to think of these beautiful futures, suddenly felt relieved.

He glared at his sister with some annoyance, and then said helplessly: "I want her to come to Castilla after solving the Austrian problem."

"Then maybe you'll be ready to be a father again before my child is born," Ruosha said as if she was not talking about her own affairs at all. "I don't know if he or she will have a brother or sister, or should I prepare for the next war for the throne now?"

Alexander's expression gradually became serious. He knew that Ruosha was not saying this casually. Whether as the queen of Sicily or a future mother, Ruosha must make plans for the future rights of her children.

Similarly, Barenti will definitely think so.

And if you think about it carefully, it is likely that the descendants of Barenti and Ruosha will cause disputes in the future.

Whether it is Sophia or Lucrezia, they have their own futures that can be placed for their children, and even now they have roughly their own directions.

According to the efforts of the Queen of Bohemia, Sophia's son Alexandru will become her son-in-law, the future king of Bohemia and Hungary.

And Alisandra was confusedly matched by Uliusi, so she was likely to be a pair with the son of Queen Akalina of Navarra.

The relationship between Navarra and the French royal family is so complicated, which seems to have given the future of the Gombre family a new direction.

As for Estreth and Giovanni Jr., Alexander was not very worried about the future of their siblings.

Although the pizza is not big, it is enough for Lucrezia.

She was born not a ruler, but a woman who just longed for love and romance, so it was already satisfying to have a man she liked and cute children.

As for the siblings of Estreth and Giovanni, there have been arrangements.

Estres can inherit Pisa and Florence, and then marry the young master of the Metic family, so that everyone can have a result that will satisfy everyone.

As for Alexander, Giovanni, the child's grandfather had already arranged a bright future for his grandson.

Pisa's auxiliary bishop, this is Giovanni's current identity. According to Alexander VI, once any diocese is vacant, Giovanni can immediately become the new cardinal.

It seems that there is no problem in this way, so the only trouble now is Ruosha and Barenti.

These are two women who are both very smart and love Alexander, but their ambitions are equally great.

And when it comes to their children's future, the weight of love may not be able to withstand the struggle for power.

So Alexander did not doubt Rusha's words at all. If he could not make arrangements, a new war for the throne might have begun in the belly of the two women from now on.

"I said I would give you the most noble crown in the world, and I will definitely keep my promise," Alexander said seriously to Ruosha. "But I think maybe your vision can be further."

Alexander sat next to Ruosha, first took a bite of the green fruit candied fruit she fed him, and then continued to say, "Can you imagine a bigger world waiting for you and our children? I mean..."

"Your new world?" Ruosha ate candied fruit again and interrupted him. "This is your arrangement, exile our children to a distant uncivilized and barbaric place?"

"It's our new world," Alexander corrected it slightly. "It's not a barbaric place, it's a place where you can create all kinds of miracles that have never been seen in the world if you want."

Ruosha twisted her body and looked at Alexander. After a while, she asked in a tentative tone: "Do you not plan to let my child inherit Aragon? Do you want to become the king of Aragon yourself?"

"No, it's my child," Alexander said seriously. "We all know that the two kingdoms must be unified, and our children, do you think it's really suitable to establish his dynasty on the European continent?"

Ruosha was slightly stunned, her face became slightly cold, but then she sighed softly.

She knew Alexander was right, and their children were indeed not suitable to stay in Europe.

If he was just an ordinary nobleman, Ruosha believed that the power of the two of them was enough to ensure the happiness of the child in his life.

They can make the most malicious person not dare to publicly slander his or her origins, they can make him or her the most worthy prince and princess in Europe!

But if they want that child to become a monarch, then their life experience will undoubtedly become the biggest obstacle for him (her) to integrate into Europe.
