Chapter 831 Let's Talk Straight

Chapter 831 Just tell me

"I, I'm here for a pastime, you know I've been in Palermo for too long!"

After hearing the words of Count Artuva, Henry VII thought he could talk to the guy in front of him. So he threw his cloak and hat to the eunuch beside him. Then he sat on Count Artuva and looked at him with interest.

"Go and get me a glass of wine. I rode the horse for a long time and was exhausted!"

The eunuchs at the French palace were not surprised at all by the actions of these former kings. They just looked on the Earl of Artowa, waiting for him to take a step closer to give.

Earl Atova waved impatiently, like driving a fly.

"Go, as the nobleman ordered, I think we might have to have a good chat!"

After the nearby servant walked away, Earl Atouva set off.

"Okay, tell me what Sicily looks like!"

The expression on Henry VII's face was exactly what you know.

"A powerful weapon, our 5,000 heavy armored cavalry, were completely defeated by them. In just a short while, my God, those bastards are devils!"

Earl Artuva had known those bastard devils, but he doubted why that devil did not kill Louis IX and even let him return to France. In addition, the French team was too careless and was defeated by them in a short time.

"This is really disappointing, but what can we do? Do you think the French team is stronger than His Majesty Frederick II's army?"

Henry VII drank the wine brought by the eunuch and looked at the wine glass. He was probably a little surprised by the deliciousness of the wine. Earl Artowa signaled the bottle with his eyes and told Henry VII the origin of the wine.

"From those devils, although they are evil, the wine tastes very good!"

Henry VII poured himself another cup, feeling that the Earl Artowa in front of him was a frank person, so he no longer concealed his thoughts.

"Mr. Earl, I'll just say it straight. You can find the British, and believe that Emperor Henry III has never forgotten the fact that your brother had defeated him a few years ago. And he sponsored the Pope for his third son Edmund, and you are willing to marry your niece, Gillier, to his crown prince, Prince Edward. I guess for these things, he will be willing to send troops to fight!"

Indeed, part of the military rations of the Pope's army fighting in Italy at this moment came from King Henry III of England. He also had great interest in France, but unfortunately, the nobles in the UK were having a big fight with him for the Magna Carta.

The Earl of Artowa knew about this that the King of England, Henry III, was fighting for the Magna Carta by the nobles led by Simon de Mondford. Originally, the two had a good relationship. Simon de Mondford was born in the French Grand Lord's family in 1208. After his father passed away, he left all the land to his elder brother Amori. Since the Mondford family also owned land in England in the early days, Amori suggested that Simon go to England to see Henry III and retrieve the land again.

After Simon arrived in England, he was highly appreciated by Henry III. Not only did he obtain land, he was also named Duke of Lancaster and the king's entourage minister. However, when he did not seek Henry III's advice, he married his sister Eleanor, and their relationship became distant.

Then Simon de Mondford realized that King Henry III of England was mediocre, so he joined forces with the fifteenth baron to form a noble parliament and demanded that the king give up power.

It is undoubtedly a matter of being uncomfortable for a king. But it is precisely because of this that Henry III had the opportunity to do something.

"What, do you think that in this case, Emperor Henry III has the opportunity to send the British team to the battle? I'm worried..."

Earl Atuva didn't understand what Henry III meant. He was wondering if the guy who had been deprived of the throne in front of him was not very good at his head.

Henry III was handsome, although he was still handsome when he had some ridiculous smell. The wine in the crystal cup in his hand shook, looking at the red wine hanging on the wall.

"Of course, if the Pope puts pressure on the nobles, then his royal family will be willing to send troops. But Mr. Earl, you probably know that when His Majesty the Pope stays in France, sometimes he has to listen to your master's opinions. So..."

The Earl of Artowa poured himself a glass of wine and thought about the possibility of such a thing. It was interesting to use marriage, settlement of disputes, and the pressure from the pope to make the British team participate in the expedition to the Kingdom of Sicily.

Although the prospect is beautiful, Count Artowa was thinking that he had paid too much in this matter, so what would Henry VII in front of him get?

"But you said that those guys are hard to deal with. If we were to borrow the British troops and attack them... we all paid so much, then what can we get? You know, if you can get nothing..."

Henry VII's face was still ridiculed by his caution.

"Is that true, you have received the crown of France, and the Emperor of England has achieved national stability, and I have obtained the status of my father. As for His Majesty the Pope, he can glorify Rome again!"

The Earl of Artowa stopped talking, and he was thinking about the benefits of this matter to him. In fact, he did not have many troops on hand, and importantly, the Knights Templar, who had just lost in the Arab Empire, did not participate in the battle against Frederick II's army because of their great commander Girami II de Sonak.

If you rely solely on your own army, you may not be able to complete such a large battle.

"Yes, but we still have some difficult things that must be resolved. I want to handle my niece's engagement after it is over, but I think it may not be enough to complete the entire expedition with us and the British team. If possible, the Knights Templars are the force we should choose. But the great leader, Girami II, de Sonak, is a problem, and someone must solve this problem! Otherwise..."

The smile on Henry VII's face faded, and the ridicule suddenly disappeared without a trace. The slightest contempt for Count Artowa, who had planned to usurp the French throne, disappeared in an instant.

The things in front of me are obvious. If I want to achieve that result, I have to meet the conditions of the Earl of Artuva in front of me.
