Chapter 1892: Spanish reaction

When Marin sent people to send a request for military visits and joint military exercises to Spain, the two kings of Ferdinand II and Juan III happened to be in the Toledo Palace.

No way, recently, the little prince of Spain, Malin, was unwell and scared the grandfather of Ferdinand II from Zaragoza to visit and take care of it.

In the original history, Ferdinand II should have died on January 23, 1516. But in this time and space, because Marin helped him to keep his only son, Juan, his mood is very different from the original history. Therefore, instead of dying as he had in history, he survived, and was a beloved grandson.

Spanish crown prince Marin is 16 years old this year, two years older than Caesar, but he is definitely the number one celebrity of the Spanish royal family. Although Ferdinand II was very cunning and ruthless, he was a man who loved his children and grandchildren. On the contrary, he has no interest in the life and death of his daughter. His eldest daughter died in childbirth. He didn't feel much. The younger daughter was wronged in England, and he didn't have any psychological fluctuations. But in history, he was deeply saddened by the death of his son Juan, and even felt despairing. Because, the death of his son meant that the Trastamara dynasty passed on. As for the children born by her daughters, they belong to other families, and Ferdinand II did not care. Therefore, in the original history, Ferdinand II and grandson Charles V competed for the right to speak in Spain. It was not until his death that Charles V fully took control of Spain.

Unlike the attitude towards grandson Charles V, Ferdinand II's love for his grandson Prince Marin was almost endless. After his son died with his second wife, Ferdinand II placed his hopes on his grandson Marin. Each year, Prince Marin lives in the Zaragoza court for a few months, receiving the teachings of Ferdinand II. Now that his grandson is ill in the Toledo Palace, Ferdinand II ran directly to visit his grandson regardless of his 64-year-old age.

And, coincidentally, Prince Marin was also infected with wind and cold. It was similar to the situation of Juan III in the past. Cough caused by a cold or something.

This is nothing to say, just add **** brown sugar water, and it will work as soon as you drink it ...

Therefore, when Prince Marin drank **** brown sugar water and his condition began to improve, it was precisely when Ferdinand II and Juan III's gratitude to Marin was the most important. Because all three understand that if there is no treatment for Malin's **** and brown sugar water, let alone this grandson, his son's life can't be saved.

It was against this background that the request for Marin ’s military visit and joint military exercise was sent to the Toledo Palace ...

After reading Marin ’s request, Juan III did not dare to make a decision, but asked Ferdinand II, who was holding his grandson in greeting:

"Father, what do you think?"

Ferdinand II helped the grandson cover the quilt and turned his head to say:

"Since the other party is willing to make us tens of thousands of more gold coins, why should we refuse? And, you and Xiao Malin can survive, but also thank him."

"But ... the Portuguese side ... I'm worried that Sister Maria is not happy ..." Juan III hesitated. Although he is also grateful to Marin, he is also worried that his sister, Queen Maria of Portugal, is not happy and is a bit embarrassed.

Ferdinand II hummed heavily, then left the grandson's bedroom and came to the living room. After seeing Juan III and Queen Margaret following, they scolded:

"What do you think Maria has to do with you? Although he is your sister, he can't affect the relationship between Spain and Portugal. For Spain and Portugal, both countries can't wait for each other to die, although they are currently cooperating to control the Indian spice trade, He wanted this monopoly. "

"Moreover, the Portuguese have always been dissatisfied, believing that we have robbed them of their share of the Indian spice trade. So, it is absolutely impossible for us to deteriorate the Portuguese relationship. Even if your sister and sister are both queens of Portugal, that will not change that. . "

"So, you don't need to think about your sister Maria's feelings, just think about how it will benefit Spain. As for the accusations of the Portuguese, then you will use Marin to save your life as an excuse, saying you can't refuse."

After a pause, Ferdinand II said:

"Actually, I can't wait for Marin's army to use Spain to directly destroy Portugal. By then, we can not only take advantage of Portugal, but also take up the other half of India's spice trade ..."

"Unfortunately, this so-called 'joint military exercise' was clearly a trick for Marin's cunning boy to frighten Portugal. You know, the North Sea and Portugal are far away from each other, and the sea power of the North Sea is like Portugal. Even if you annex Portugal on land, you ca n’t control it. In the end, it ’s not cheap for us? It ’s just a show that is destined to threaten each other, alas ... what a great opportunity ... "

The eyes of Queen Margaret of Juan III flashed, saying:

"Otherwise, we encourage Marin to really destroy Portugal?" She also hopes that her husband can annex Portugal. In this way, she can become the queen of the entire Iberian Peninsula.

Ferdinand II shook his head and said:

"Boy, you are smarter than Juan, but the experience is still inadequate. The cunning boy in Marin is much more cunning than you. I can be sure that he is just a bluff this time, unless the Portuguese are really stupid. Actively attack the North Sea country. Otherwise, this kid will not send troops to destroy Portugal. Because the North Sea country does not want Spain to annex Portugal ... "

Queen Margaret thought, after a while, she said:

"You mean, the North Sea Kingdom is also afraid of the emergence of an Iberian Empire that dominates the ocean?"

Ferdinand II applauded:

"Yes, if Spain really annexed Portugal, then, on the ocean, we will have no opponents and become the master of the ocean. And the North Sea country is just a country that manages the ocean. Not to mention the development and utilization of the wild continent, it is the Far East The colonial management of Japan in the region, as well as trade with the Ming Kingdom, he was reluctant to give up. "

"But if we annex Portugal ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ the ocean is our world, we want to cut off his Far East trade route and it will be cut off, everything depends on our mood. You said, he will be happy to see this The emergence of an ocean overlord country? "

"So, this time only the Beihai Kingdom used us to scare Portugal?" Juan III said.

Ferdinand II nodded and said:

"Yes, that's the case, the guy Marin is using us. So, he didn't use it in vain, which gave us benefits. Otherwise, would I agree to let him use us?"

"In addition, Spain also needs the North Sea country to attract Portugal ’s attention. Juan, you should know that Spain is currently competing with France for the Kingdom of Naples, and he has no time for him. I am worried that Portugal will make small moves behind it, so let the North Sea country I ’m very happy to meet Portugal. In this way, the Portuguese do n’t even think about Spain. The Malin ’s little fox meets the Portuguese, and the Portuguese should have a headache ... ”Ferdinand II Shi Xing laughed happily.

After speaking, Ferdinand II waved his hand:

"Just do it. Afterwards, you send someone to say to your sister Maria, that your life was saved by Marin, and you can't refuse him. In addition, that treatment saved your son. Alas, my grandson Ma It would be great if Lin could be as clever and cunning as Marin ’s kid ... "After that, he ran into the bedroom again to see his grandson ...
