Although Agnes's father was betrayed and died by his two sons, what made Zhao Jia wonder was that even if his two sons won, they were Agnes's brothers after all, and they shouldn't embarrass her.

Hearing Zhao Jia's question, I saw that Agnes smiled helplessly and said: "My father has a total of three children, Kondra and Henry are my elder brothers, I am my father's youngest child, and I am also the most favored child......

With Agnes's narration, Zhao Jia slowly understood the reason for Agnes' escape, in fact, to put it bluntly, it is nothing more than a struggle for power, although Agnes is a girl, but the throne of the Holy Roman Empire does not necessarily have to be passed on to her son, in fact, in the history of Rome, there has been an empress more than once, so Agnes also has the right to inherit the throne.

Agnes was the youngest of her siblings, but she was the most favored by Henry IV, and when she was young, she was nothing, but as her two older brothers grew up, they began to reject Agnes a little, at first Agnes didn't understand why her brothers didn't like her, but when she grew up, she realized that they were jealous of herself, and at the same time worried that her father would pass the throne to her.

Agnes has a quiet temperament and has never wanted to manage a huge empire, so after knowing the reasons for her brothers' rejection of her, she once naively explained to her brothers that she never wanted to get the throne, but unfortunately her two brothers smiled on the surface. But he still didn't like her afterwards, which made Agnes very sad about it, and even cried secretly a few times.

But what Agnes never expected was that her eldest brother would suddenly betray her father, and she remembered the situation very clearly that day, which was her fifteenth birthday. As a father, Henry IV had a grand birthday party prepared for her, but just as soon as the banquet began, the news of her eldest brother Kondla's rebellion came, which made Henry IV, as a father, very sad about this, but he quickly picked himself up and led his knights to quell his son's rebellion.

Unfortunately, before Henry IV put down the rebellion of his eldest son, the younger son Henry also launched a rebellion and dealt him a fatal blow in the back, which made Henry IV flee in defeat. And he also knew that his two sons didn't like Agnes, so when he fled, he always took Agnes with him, and Henry IV also organized an army loyal to him when he fled, ready to regroup, but unfortunately he died of illness before he could raise his army, and Agnes stayed by his side at that time.

"After my father's defeat, he has been actively gathering knights who are loyal to him to prepare for a counterattack. In the beginning, he won several battles, and his father was also very defeated against his two older brothers. So he even announced that I would be the heir to the throne, but no sooner had the news been announced than my father suddenly fell ill and died within a few days. Agnes finally said with tears in her eyes, although it has been more than a year since this incident, every time she thinks of the pain of being betrayed by her two brothers before her father died. She couldn't help but want to cry.

After listening to Agnes's words, Zhao Yan couldn't help but show a wry smile, and felt very sympathetic to Agnes's plight, Agnes's two brothers didn't like her, but his father made her the heir to the throne. Now her two brothers didn't want to kill her.

"Hey, Europe is so far away from us, why do you have to flee thousands of miles to our Great Song Dynasty?" At this time, Zhao Jia suddenly thought of another question, and asked with a puzzled face, although Agnes was as far away from Europe as safer, she would inevitably escape too far.

Regarding Zhao Jia's question, I saw that Agnes first wiped the tears on her face, and then raised her head to look at him, but did not answer his question immediately, but asked rhetorically: "My Chinese is so fluent, don't you feel strange Zhao Gongzi?" ”

"I'm really strange about this, someone must have taught you Chinese, is it ......" Zhao Jia suddenly thought of a possibility at this time, and looked at Agnes with some surprise at the moment.

"Childe's guess is right, in fact, when I was in Europe, I already knew Chinese, and I also knew some information about the Great Song Dynasty, which was taught to me by one of my teachers, and this teacher of mine is a Song person!" Agnes also had a look of nostalgia and sadness on her face when she talked about her teacher.

"Song people? Someone from my Great Song has already arrived in Europe? Zhao Jia couldn't help but be shocked when he heard this, and then said with some ecstasy.

"Yes, my teacher's name is Dong Zhong, he is a good friend of my father, and a great navigator, a few years ago he led a merchant fleet from Guangzhou in the Great Song Dynasty, through the Strait of Malacca, bypassing Africa and finally reaching the Mediterranean of our Europe, but the Romans were jealous of the cargo on his ship, so they actually arrested him very despicably, and destroyed his ship, just when my father led his army to conquer Rome, he overheard about it, so he rescued him from prison."

When he said this, Agnes paused for a moment and then added: "Uncle Dong is very grateful for my father's saving grace, at that time his ship was also destroyed, and the people on board were also dead and escaped, and there was no way to go back, so he has been following my father, and my father is also very interested in the situation of the Great Song, so he often chats with Uncle Dong." Uncle Dong was a very learned man, he claimed to be a scholar, and he also gave many useful suggestions to my father, so my father also respected him very much, and always regarded him as his good friend, so I always called him Uncle Dong, and it was under Uncle Dong's teaching that I learned Chinese and understood the distant and huge empire of the Great Song Dynasty. ”

Agnes burst into tears again when she said this, but she still held back her inheritance and said: "Later, my father was defeated and fled by his two elder brothers, and Uncle Dong has always been loyal to my father's side, helping my father organize loyal knights to prepare for a counterattack, but unfortunately my father died of a sudden illness, and when my father died, he handed me over to Uncle Dong, who was the most trusted, and asked him to take me away from Europe, preferably to the Great Song Dynasty, so that I no longer have to worry about my two brothers finding me." ”

"Dong Zhong!" Zhao Jia couldn't help but repeat the name when he heard this, he hadn't heard of this person before, but it can also be known from Agnes's description that the other party is a maritime merchant, and he has read books before, and what is even more rare is that the other party is still a loyal person, for the trust of his friend, he actually took Agnes back to the Great Song Dynasty thousands of miles away, which made him very interested in Dong Zhong.

"Huh? By the way, didn't your Uncle Dong come back with you, why didn't you see him? Zhao Jia asked again at this time, he really wanted to meet this maritime merchant who could reach Europe.

Hearing Zhao Jia ask about Dong Zhong, the expression on Agnes's face darkened again, and she said in a sad tone: "After Uncle Dong led our fleet out of Europe, thanks to his rich sailing experience along the way, we were able to avoid countless dangers at sea, but even so, we still lost most of our ships and manpower, and when we finally arrived in the Tianzhu Sea, there was only one ship left, and as a result, we encountered an unprecedented storm there, and Uncle Dong was swept into the sea by the strong wind in order to save me, and then ...... After ......"

Speaking of the end, Agnes couldn't help but shed tears again, since her father died, Dong Zhong has been playing the dual role of teacher and father in her life, and it is with Dong Zhong's enlightenment and encouragement that she has the courage to assume her own responsibilities, but she didn't expect that in the last journey, even Dong Zhong, the elder she respected, was lost, which was almost a devastating blow to her, and until now she feels very confused about her future.

"It's a pity, I didn't expect such a character to have no chance to meet!" Zhao Jia couldn't help but sigh when he heard this, he originally wanted to discuss the route to Europe with the other party, but it seemed that there was no such opportunity.

"Zhao Gongzi, my origin has been completely told to you, originally when Uncle Dong was there, he would arrange the affairs after I came to the Great Song Dynasty, but now even Uncle Dong has been killed, we don't know anything about the Great Song Dynasty, so for me, the best way is to ask for asylum from the Great Song Dynasty, I just hope that they can give me a stable life for the sake of the same royal family!" Agnes spoke again.

However, Zhao Jia frowned slightly when he heard this, and then looked at Agnes and asked: "Agnes, I believe your words, but if you want to ask for asylum from the imperial court, you must come up with things to prove your identity, do you have these things?" ”

"Yes, my father's crown has always been with me, but then our ship was controlled by that trafficker, so the crown should have fallen into his hands." When Agnes heard this, she immediately said eagerly, when she escaped from Europe, she carried a lot of her father's relics with her, but later the ships were shipwrecked and sunk one after another, and most of the items were lost, leaving only her father's crown with her, which is also an important symbol of the inheritance of the throne.
