On the suburban avenue, not very far east of the city of Barriaride, an "RV" was walking slowly on the road.

It's not an exaggeration to say it's an RV, the whole wagon looks like a small house, with a sloping roof, painted walls and windows on the gang, and a symbolic chimney, making the whole wagon look like a mobile home on wheels from a distance.

According to the old saying of some Bohemians from the East, such a carriage should have a very powerful family elf, most of these elves are kind, and they will make the family who makes the carriage their home harmonious. However, there are also some elves who create disputes and even hatred, and the owner of the car should plug the doors and chimneys with smoked grass, and then find a ceramic or metal jar to knock on for a whole day, knowing to drive the troublesome bad elf out of the "house".

This pagan legend was not discouraged or punished during the Moorish reign, and some Moorish poets even incorporated these tales into their poems, and it is said that there are many more of these magical tales, which can tell a whole thousand and one nights.

But with the triumph of the Reconquista, these previously innocuous folklore were severely rebuked by the Church, and even accused of devilish rhetoric.

As a result, although this characteristic Iberian "bohemian motorhome" can still be seen occasionally, no one dares to see these cars anymore and laugh and tell their children those myths and legends.

The "RV" slowly moved along the bumpy road, because of the large body, it was naturally very slow, but even so, the people in the car were still very dissatisfied.

"When will I see the doctor you are talking about?" In one corner of the car, Juana, who had changed into a gorgeous dress, hugged Philip in her arms, and whenever her husband let out a moan or moved a little, Juana would immediately check carefully, and then ask the person next to her, "What's wrong with him" or "Is he not good looking like this".

Juana's intense emotions apparently affected the others as well, and the men who fled from the castle in the Highlands with them became Juana's most trusted people, but they were also exhausted by her irritable suspicion and even hysteria caused by her over-interest in Philip.

And Juana had been asking them from the beginning when they would be able to find a doctor for Philip who could cure him for his strange disease, and never seemed to listen to those who had been explaining to her what she was doing.

This made those who were originally ecstatic about Judah because they had mastered Judas, although they had heard about Juana's mental condition before, but they always had great hopes, and they even used Juana Since Juana is Isabella's daughter, and Isabella is a wise queen, then Juana cannot comfort themselves as rumored by the outside world in terms of blood, but when they meet the real Princess Juana, they understand that the legends of the original outside world may not be appropriate enough.

Except for Philip, Juana did not care about anything at all, and when asked what she thought of her mother, she even said in a very disgusted tone, "She has always wanted to separate me from my husband, and I suspect that she is in love with Philip, after all, he is so beautiful, no woman can resist his charm." ”

The people of Judah were dumbfounded, and they could not imagine that a princess could say this about her mother, and that if these words were to be heard, not only the Castilian court, but also Aragonese and Vienna, would cause an unimaginable uproar.

This made the people of Judah even wonder if this decision was wrong, the woman in front of her was the embodiment of madness and tyranny, and there was an elderly woman who wanted to help her take care of Philip, and she tried to pierce the woman with a broken nail rake tooth that she found out of nowhere, and then she never allowed anyone to come near the caravan again.

It was only when Philip's condition became worse and worse that Juana had to compromise and invite the people of Judah into the car to discuss a solution.

"Princess, you are now going to Toledo, where there are many people waiting for you, and you will find that in Toledo you have everything that is rightfully yours." A man continued to try to persuade Juana, but his words were soon interrupted by the princess's anger.

"I don't want to hear this, I just want to know where the doctor you promised is, you promised me that I could cure Philip, so I am willing to come out with you, but you haven't found me the person I want for so long, Philip is looking very bad now, if he has any accidents, I will let all of you bury him!"

Juana's tyrannical appearance made the man sitting opposite frown, he felt that his patience had reached a certain limit, if it weren't for the fact that the woman in front of him was really useful, he would have drawn his sword and cut the two men and women in front of him who he hated into meat sauce.

The man covered his nose with his hand, the action he had not done because he had been patient was now unscrupulous, the disgusting smell of Philip was even more unbearable in the closed compartment, and the man even wondered if Juana had no sense of smell at all, otherwise how could he endure such a stench.

"Princess, the doctor is towing Ledo." The man reluctantly continued to promise, he knew that if he wanted this woman to go all the way with them in peace, he could only keep deceiving her, as for whether she would go completely crazy after finding out that she was deceived, this was not their concern, they only needed Juana to appear in Toledo, and then the elders of the Castilian noble council knew what to do.

This plan had been in the works for a long time, even before Juana became crown prince and her brother Prince Juan was still alive, but at that time, although they knew that it was more difficult, the target of these people was Prince Juan.

Whoever became Isabella's heir was bound to be Ferdinand's enemy, and this was well known to anyone, so they wanted to be able to control Isabella's heir and compete with the ambitious Ferdinand.

Prince Juan's unexpected death caused the men to think their plans were aborted, but soon they discovered that an heir had emerged that was more controllable, and they began to try to observe and approach Juana as closely as they could.

Their plan did succeed, but these people never imagined that they were kidnapping such a Juana.

As Alexander had guessed, it would have been easy for these men to leave Barriaridot, but the sermon of the Six Styles of Yueli Mountain had become an invisible shackle that bound them, and they knew full well that only Juana with a complete and irrefutable inheritance would be of use to them, otherwise they would probably have lost their efforts by making the wrong bet if their inheritance qualifications were questioned.

A hurried sound of horses' hooves came from a distance, and when the horse's hooves stopped near the carriage, the man, who had been running out of patience, quickly pushed the door and got out of the carriage, and saw his companion talking in a low voice with a stranger, and the man immediately retreated into the carriage and hid his face in the dark.

"Are you afraid of being seen?" Juana asked suddenly, and the cheap man looked back at her, and she said in a proud tone, "Philip is never afraid of being seen, because he is the most beautiful, but I don't like other women staring at his face all the time, but why are you afraid of being seen?" ”

The man couldn't hide his disgust, and glanced at Philip's sweaty face, the corners of his mouth and nose were red and swollen due to ulceration, and then he looked out of the car without saying a word.

Years of habit have made the people of Judah regard keeping secrets as a part of their lives, keeping their own secrets from others, and also following the law of keeping other people's secrets is the basis of their existence, and many people have long forgotten why they do it.

After a while, there was a knock on the car door from the outside, and the man got out of the car and walked to the side with his companion to talk in a low voice.

"The Tangomada brothers have already negotiated terms with the Duke of Rome Thesia, but his request is a little strange." Judah's simple and simple relationship led everyone to call each other brothers, the same as the Church advocates, but they stubbornly believed that they were the descendants of the elect who had truly inherited the truth and faith of Jesus Christ: "What do you think the Duke wants to do?" ”

"I don't know," the man frowned and pondered, he also couldn't understand why that duke was so obsessed with the identity of Enrique's daughter, if it was a few decades ago, he would have thought that the duke was planning to support Enrique's daughter Juana, but now this can only be said to be wishful thinking, "What other conditions does he have besides this?" ”

"It is not appropriate for him to want the Pope to come to Toledo before announcing the previous sermon," he nodded unexpectedly when he saw the man, and his companion said in a slightly understanding tone, "That couple is terrible, they control the whole church, and probably even the Pope would not dare to offend them rashly." ”

"Of course not, that Gonzalo even publicly reprimanded Alexander VI at the Vatican," the man said with a disdainful smile at first, and then as if he suddenly understood something, "I think I know why they put that condition, probably Alexander VI no longer intends to stay in Castile, and what could be more pleasing to Manuel than to be respected enough in Portugal than to recognize that Juana's identity." ”

"Oh, that's true," said his companion, admiring the man's sharp mind, and at the same time apprehension, he could not help but be a little worried, "but then perhaps Portugal will offer the right to the throne of Castiria, which is not a good thing for us." ”

Men thoughtfully walked slowly on the side of the road, for so many years they had been hiding in the shadows and kept planning, overthrowing, and then planning, and overthrowing, and every time they made the decision to stand under the sun and fight against the world, they often used various reasons to delay the steps to turn all this into practical action because of the fear in their hearts.

Now they have finally decided to take that step, but the difficulties and dangers that lie ahead of them have made them suffer from both gains and losses.

"Send that woman to drag her down, and let the senators take care of the rest, we've done enough for them, and it's time for them to repay us."

After saying this, as if to vent, the man patted the invisible dust on his clothes vigorously, and then shook his hands as if he wanted to shake off some troubles, and hurried towards his companions who were already waiting for them in front of him.

The city of Valaried Doud has been in turmoil these days, a week has passed since the queen was declared seriously ill, and the missing Juana has been missing for several days, and many people have gradually understood from the initial accident, the subsequent speculation, and the ease of more good drama that Castile is facing a great crisis.

Especially after Gonzalo returned, even the most optimistic and relaxed people felt inexplicably nervous.

After Gonzalo returned, Isabella ignored her illness and dragged her seriously ill body to immediately summon the ministers who didn't even have time to drink a sip of water, and then the two monarchs even avoided Ferdinand and talked alone in the room for a long time, just one thing was enough to send too many interesting signals, and then the queen's guard, who had been guarding the palace, was directly involved in the search for Juana.

All these signs seemed to indicate that the royal couple had become unusual, which made the city of Barriaridud strange, and at the same time made people wary of the slightest mistake.

The visit of Tongomada was a surprise to Alexander, who would never have been the dreaded executioner priest if he hadn't voluntarily revealed his relationship with the Transylvanian Dragon Knights.

Or that he never believed this man, just as Tongo Mada would not believe him, and the relationship between them was not even a cooperation, or even a transaction.

Judas would not trust anyone but themselves, it was their creed, the law of survival and instinct, so Alexander never expected anything from Thomas Tangomada.

Both of them know very well that although they are not worried about the other party betraying themselves because they have secrets that they don't want outsiders to know, if they are not careful, they will probably lose their lives.

So after Tangomada left, Alexander ordered Sher to secretly prepare for possible accidents, and Tieg's efforts in the past few years have been fruitful, at least he soon learned that he could get in touch with the leaders of several mercenary organizations that were influential in Barriaridud, and these people had extensive business dealings with Tiego's "East India Company Office", among which several powerful mercenary groups had just received a large order through Tiego, Already sent their most elite "employees" to Pisa, Italy, "on a business trip".

Alexander certainly didn't expect these mercenaries to help him claim the crown, and if that did, he wouldn't have been on the throne for long, and he didn't want to be a victim of that kind of sacrifice as the Ottoman Guards of the ancient Roman Empire and the Ottoman Empire had learned a lesson.

However, if something happens, these mercenaries can be a life-saving straw, so Alexander generously let Schell deal generously with those mercenary leaders.

At the same time, he also closely followed the news from the palace.

There were more doctors who went to see Isabella, a few of them even those who had previously been considered sorcerers, some of whom had been brought straight from the Inquisition, and although they had been quietly sent into the palace in a tightly sealed carriage, the news leaked out.

This made Alexander suspect that someone might have deliberately leaked Isabella's condition, but no one knew what the purpose of these people was.

Before he knew it, he could already feel a refreshing chill in the scorching heat, which made Alexander realize that he had been in Iberia long enough.

It has been nearly half a month since Juana disappeared, and now no one is expecting to find her whereabouts, and some people even secretly speculate whether the princess has suffered a misfortune, although every time someone boldly raises this question, it will be fiercely refuted and even cursed, but everyone knows that it is only because people are more afraid.

The question of what would happen if Juana did happen to him was a question that made many Castilian people fidgety and chill all over their bodies.

Even Ferdinand, whenever he thought about this, he might wake up from his dream with fear.

Ferdinand could not care about this daughter, but he could not care about the heir of Castile, and since he himself had no right to inherit the crown of Castile, he had to make sure that his daughter could become queen.

However, the people sent to find Juana's whereabouts were thrown into the air again and again, and Isabella's attitude towards him, like her condition, became worse and worse.

What also annoyed Ferdinand was that the previous sermons of Alexander VI did play a non-negligible role, as can be seen from Isabella's insistence on meeting the Pope again despite her serious illness.

It's just that Juana's disappearance has made this otherwise perfect plan unpredictable, and Ferdinand can't help but be annoyed by the thought that it might be used by someone who has always coveted the throne of Castile.

What made him even angrier was Gonzalo.

Since Gonzalo's return, the Castilian nobles seemed to have a backbone, they gathered around Gonzalo all day to plan such and such plans, and Isabella's trust gave Gonzalo great support to gather the influence and power of those Castilians.

Ferdinand felt that Gonzalo had become a stumbling block in front of him that had to be removed.

Gonzalo was clearly aware of Ferdinand's hostility, but he didn't think it was at all, for he the queen was his monarch.

It was at this time that Alexander visited Gonzalo's home in the Barriaride
