The Rise of the European Emperor

After Ferdinand II had gone, Julius II asked Marin solemnly:

"Why do you do this? Don't you know that the French are happiest doing this?"

"It's very simple for me to do this because, I want England... If the Spaniards continue to form an alliance with England, it will be very difficult for me to do so. So, I will dismantle the alliance between Spain and England..." Anyway, my father-in-law is not an outsider, and there are many If the place still needed his help, Marin said it straight.

"You want England? In what name? Is it a forced annexation, and then let me recognize you on behalf of the Holy See? This way other countries will object..."

"No, Giuliano, I'm not trying to take England, I'm going to change it..."

"Tell me."

"Edward of the York family, you know that?"

"Of course, it is said that it is legendary that he escaped the massacre of Henry VII. It is said that he was replaced by a boy with a similar disease."

"I support the Lord Margaret to do it..."

"You? Why are you meddling in England's affairs? You planned England a long time ago?" Julius II asked inexplicably.

"Giuliano, you know, I want to do a big voyage, and the ships going in and out need to pass through the English Channel, which is very restricted by England. Once England disturbs me and blocks the narrowest Calais in the English Channel, I will There's going to be huge trouble..."

Julius II thought about it, and it really is this truth:

"So you're planning for England?"

"More than that, in my opinion, there are only three competitors on the sea in the future - Spain, Portugal and England. As for France, they are addicted to the hegemony of the European continent.

"England is an isolated island overseas. It seems remote, but it is also very safe. As long as the navy is strong enough, no one can do anything about it."

"Moreover, England has a larger population and richer resources than Portugal. It will definitely surpass Portugal in the future and become an existence that can wrestle with Spain at sea."

"Spain is easy to clean up Portugal. As long as it sends an army to surround Lisbon, the Portuguese will have to Qufu. But facing England, Spain must send a fleet to expedition. If the English navy is strong enough, it can completely defeat the Spanish fleet.

Not threatened by Spain..."

After thinking for a while, Julius II nodded, agreeing with Marin's statement. England is now the throne issue, and the country is still not peaceful. Once England settles down, there is indeed a lot of potential for development.

Unlike the Portuguese, England has an advantage over Scotland. Also, it is possible to annex Ireland. As long as Scotland and Ireland are successfully dealt with, it will be difficult for England not to take off.

Julius II was well aware of his son-in-law's talents and enormous financial resources. If he was given ample excuses, it would be easy to clean up England, Scotland and Ireland. So he asked:

"I agree with England's great potential, but what's your excuse for sending troops?"

"Giuliano, did you know? Edward of the York family has already ascended the throne in Ireland and is called Edward VI. Moreover, his wife has just given birth to a daughter named Margaret..."

"You mean..." Julius II raised his eyebrows, obviously thinking of something.

"Our little Caesar, married Margaret, can't justifiably occupy England? Henry VII was a monarch to seize the throne, we help Edward to play a banner, absolutely justifiable!"

"That said, if Edward of the York family gave birth to a son, it would be useless for little Caesar to marry Margaret."

"Don't worry about this, the French have done it for me..."

Later, Marin told Julius II that Count Duarte had ordered his cook spy to give his daughter Anna the contraceptive pill in her diet.

Julius II was taken aback:

"How can you have such a cruel father?"

"Don't forget, Earl Duarte has a son. As long as this matter is done, his son's earl title will no longer be an empty title, but will have a complete earldom. Therefore, for the sake of his son, Duer Earl Walter had to sacrifice his daughter..."

Julius II was silent for a long time, and suddenly asked:

"You keep Felice in East Frisian, so you want my support alone?"

Marlin suddenly choked, not knowing what to say. Moreover, Julius II really spoke his mind. Unexpectedly, just a simple conversation, Julius II actually figured out this question.

In desperation, Marin had to honestly say:

"Yes, I do think so."

"I knew it," murmured Julius II, "that Felice is far less beautiful than Angela, and you have made her a lover. As a rule, a lover should be more beautiful than a wife. So, I I was a little puzzled before. Today, I finally figured it out."

"Don't mind, Giuliano, although my motives for possessing Ferris are impure, I have absolutely nothing to say to her. Besides, you see, her eldest son, Robert, isn't I planning to train him to be a pope in the future? , and plan to use Rovere's surname."

"That's true. Angela is soft-hearted and won't bully Ferris. However, I'm worried that Ferris will be jealous of Angela's wife's position in the long run, and sisters will kill each other... After all, Ferris is a very good and strong person. People..." Julius II said worriedly.

"That's okay, I plan to make her son the Pope. The Pope's mother, how glorious..."

Julius II blew his beard and stared, talking about the Pope's mother in front of the Pope. This is... so strange...

"By the way, why did you let that fat brother go to the French Royal Palace?"

"Give Queen Anne the contraceptive pill. Those who have tested the contraceptive can't eat it, so don't worry about exposure. As long as Queen Anne can't give birth to a little prince, then England will belong to my son Caesar!"

"I see……"

"By the way, I've heard that Italians are very good at poison. For example, a chronic poison like the Borgia Cantrella... I'm going to look for a poison that permanently sterilizes women or permanently sterilizes men... Well, it's better to be a drug that permanently sterilizes women... After all, this drug should be available in the women's world. Italy surpasses Germany in alchemy, please keep an eye on it. I want to prescribe this drug for Queen Anne , so that he will never have children..."

Julius II looked at Marin with complicated eyes:

"Hey, I don't even know what to say about a son-in-law like you. My grandson Caesar will definitely be very happy and bright in the future. Angela is fine now, she is young and beautiful, and when she gets old, I hope you don't poison her..."

"Um... why do you always say that? How good am I to Angela? How could you murder her?"

"Angela is young and beautiful now, so you naturally pamper her. When she gets old, I'm afraid you will despise her... I'll definitely be gone by then, and no one will protect her..."

"Don't say that, no matter how vicious I am, it is for outsiders, and I won't kill my own family!"

"I'm not worried that you treat Caesar badly, that's your son and heir. I'm just worried that you will dislike Angela when she gets old... As a father, seeing that my son-in-law is so insidious, I'm afraid..."

Marlin suddenly couldn't help laughing and crying:

"Yes... I swear, can I? I swear in the name of God, no matter how old or ugly Angela becomes, I will love her for the rest of my life, otherwise I will go to hell after death, and I will be blasted by demons every day to play with chrysanthemums..."

Julius II was immediately disgusted by Marin's oath:

"It's so disgusting to swear... Also, don't abandon Ferris..."

"No, Felice is the old mother of the future Pope, how dare I abandon it..."

"roll--"
