King of German Mercenaries

Marin was also caught off guard when Archbishop Rovere personally called on the door. Originally, in his opinion, Archbishop Rovere must be very calm to become Pope in the future. As long as Marin and Angela are married, everything will be fine.

What he didn't expect was that Archbishop Rovere didn't have time to wait and came directly to the door himself. Moreover, with the French diplomatic documents...

Although, the French and Marin have a feud. However, that was left by the previous King Charles VIII. Now, with the death of Charles VIII, most of the grievances between Marin and the French have dissipated, leaving only the personal grievances with some French soldiers and the families of the deceased. After all, the new King Louis XII is not the son of Charles VIII, but a relative, and there is no need to avenge Charles VIII.

However, Archbishop Rovere came with diplomatic documents from the era of the new French monarch. If Marin dared not to show face, he would have offended France once again, and he would have to fight with the French to the death. Even, it will give the French an excuse to openly clean up Marin.

So, Marin felt a huge headache. However, he will never give up the chance to marry Angela. It's impossible to stop because of a document from the French.

But the problem is coming. If I want to rise in the future and participate in the German hegemony, I must get the support of my father-in-law who will become the pope in the future. However, now that his father-in-law has called on the door, and he has to prevent him from marrying Angela, Marin is extremely depressed.

Then, it is very troublesome to solve this matter. Even Marin didn't give the French face and forced the marriage. But the consequences of doing so are serious. Sweeping the face of a superpower like France would also provoke the wrath of a future pope.

If he angers the future father-in-law, and when the future father-in-law takes the position of Pope, because he does not like himself and does not provide himself with help, it will be a waste of time...

But if he gave up Angela so helplessly, Marin would also be busy making wedding clothes for others. In the future, the Pope's son-in-law will become another French guy... The resources of the Holy See will also tend to that guy...

Marin decided to have a good talk with his future father-in-law, so he received Archbishop Rovere in the living room of the palace. But I didn't expect that Archbishop Rovere didn't want to talk to him at all, didn't want to listen to what Marin said, just wanted to take his daughter away...

After talking for a long time, Archbishop Rovere didn't hear a word. In the end, Marin finally got angry...

"Come here, take these distinguished guests to the villa in the east of the city for two days, remember to take enough people to protect the safety of the guests!" Marin was furious and decided to take Archbishop Rovere and his entourage. , under house arrest for two days. Wait until the wedding is over, and then release it...

"Count Marin, don't mistake yourself! If you offend the mighty France, you won't get anything good!" Archbishop Rovere also knew German. He immediately heard Malin's order in German to his soldiers. Before, Marin and Archbishop Rovere were quarreling in Latin throughout the whole process, which was very high-end. The attendants on the side were all civilians, who had never learned Latin, and did not understand what they said. Therefore, the communication between the two is somewhat unscrupulous. But now Marin doesn't want to fight anymore, he just wants to get married quietly. As for the father-in-law who strongly opposes it, let's close it for two days before talking about it...

"His Excellency Archbishop Rovere, do you think King Louis XII of France would care about such trivial matters? I'm afraid you got this document from someone? At least, I didn't see the signature of His Majesty Louis XII!" Marin looked at it. After passing that diplomatic document, I was relieved. At least, it was not a document signed by Louis XII himself. Even if he refuses, he does not offend Louis XII. Offending a French minister, Marin felt no pressure.

"You... how do you know my true identity? That girl Angela told you?" Archbishop Rovere was a little shocked. From beginning to end, he communicated with Marin in the name of the French envoy Giuliano. And, although he is the Archbishop of Rovere.

However, externally, now he generally does not use his real name, nor does he wear a bishop's robe. Because he is still wanted by the Holy See of Alexander VI. Only in France did he dare to use his real name in exchange for the robe of the archbishop. Because, the French can not bird Alexander VI. As long as he leaves France, he will not use his real name, and he will also put on ordinary noble clothes, so as not to be tied up by some blind person and sent to Rome to ask for credit...

Moreover, Archbishop Rovere also told Angela and Ferris very early not to tell others that their father was Archbishop Rovere. He also believed that his second daughter, the smartest and most obedient, would not easily reveal his identity. However, Marin revealed his true identity. This made him wonder if Angela accidentally revealed his identity to Marin.

"Angela didn't tell me, but I have a wide range of intelligence sources and connections in Italy. Not only do I know that Angela is your daughter, but I also know that you have another daughter named Felice..."

"Then...then do you know where Ferris is?" Archbishop Rovere looked at Marin with a hopeful expression. If Angela really can't use it, it's not bad to use Ferris to get married. Anyway, as long as one of his daughters can marry a French nobleman, that's enough. And Angela's marriage to Marin, the lord of the country, is not a loss.

"I only know about it. It seems that your youngest daughter Felice and her mother are hiding in the countryside of Genoa. It is said that Felice is married, married to a non-aristocratic person in the countryside of Genoa. Little Landlord..."

"What? She's only 15 years old, married so early? And, married to a commoner?" Archbishop Rovere jumped up in anger. When a daughter marries a commoner, not only will she not be able to obtain the effect of the marriage, but she will also be ashamed of herself...

After all, he is also the nephew of the former Pope, the big black hand of the Holy See who once dominated the Holy See for many years. I didn't expect that one of my daughters would marry a country commoner, which is too embarrassing...

"You don't even think about it, the mother and daughter are running for their lives. It is said that they were desperate and had no money. In desperation, Felice married the son of a small rural landowner in exchange for their adoption. …”

"How can this be... how can this be... My daughter, she didn't even marry a noble... You must be lying to me, right?" Archbishop Rovere was a little out of control.

"I didn't lie to you, you are my future father-in-law, do I dare to lie to you?" Marin shrugged and said indifferently.

"So, Lucrezia is also with Felice?" Lucrezia is the mistress of Archbishop Rovere and the mother of Angela and Felice.

"Yes!"

"Then why didn't you bring them to East Frisland?" Archbishop Rovere was a little sad. After all, he was also a prominent figure in the Holy See who used to be all-powerful, but he never expected that his mistress and young daughter would be so destitute that they needed to be taken in by the rural commoners and small landlords.

"I didn't find out the details, but I only heard some generalities. At that time, I took Angela and was hunted down by the Borgia family, so I could only quickly escape from the Italian area. How could I go to Genet? Sub-regional investigation? Besides, Felice and Lucrezia, for safety, must be anonymous, it is very difficult to find..." In fact, Marin has only seen relevant anecdotes on the Internet in later generations. No one was sent to Genoa to look for it.

"Are you sure Ferris is married?"

"Almost..." According to previous records on the Internet, Ferris got married in about 1498. It's 1499 now, and must have been married.

"Then return Angela to me, I'm just such an unmarried daughter! You return my daughter!" Archbishop Rovere suddenly jumped up and wanted to grab the cuff of Marin's clothes. The guard beside him saw it. , wants to come over and beat Archbishop Rovere, who is a little out of control. But Marin waved his hand and did not let the guards join in. He will rely on this father-in-law in the future, but he can't really fight.

So Marin grabbed Archbishop Rovere's hands and prevented him from attacking him. Marin was a knight and still young. Although it is not an opponent of Adler, Kahn and other beasts, it is still no problem to control a fifty-year-old like Archbishop Rovere.

Then, Malindo called some people to carry Archbishop Rovere and his entourage to a villa in the east of the city under house arrest. The villa was the place where the Marin family temporarily lived when the Aurich Palace was renovated, and it was fully equipped. Now that Marin's family has moved into the palace, this villa is empty, just in time to put his father-in-law under house arrest...

Marin warned the guards again and again, fearing that they would be rough. Although it is house arrest, the courtesy that should be given cannot be less than the same. For meals, the best meals are also served, which are all delicious and delicious Chinese food. In short, as long as Archbishop Rovere does not disturb his wedding. In other respects, Marin tried his best to give his father-in-law the highest courtesy...
