Chapter 153 The Opening Ceremony of the European War

After hearing this stupid interrogation, little Descartes immediately understood three things.

First, the first half of the assassination he launched must have something to do with this fat nobleman. Little Descartes can even be sure that those Ottoman artillery, gunners, and even the dead men on the square must also be related to this fat nobleman. Of the aristocracy.

Second, when his teacher Zhang Liang was preparing for the assassination, he had already begun to find a reliable way out for his students.

Third, judging from the way the cardinal tried the case, they no longer respect Alexander VII. Once it is determined that the assassination is related to the fat nobles, their group will go home safely.

Because the next pope’s throne will hang in the air, as long as the cardinal has a chance.

The archbishop of the Inquisition must also be salivating for the position of the pope. What he has to do now is to implicate more people through the trial of the fat man, as long as he detains all those who are disadvantageous to his accession to the throne in prison, then, The possibility of him ascending the throne will greatly increase.

When framing some people, we must also treat other harmless people fairly. Little Descartes felt that this group of people were the ones that the cardinal showed his kindness and could let go.

With this judgment, little Descartes seemed very quiet, and took the initiative to take care of the girl with a broken leg.

He put some Chinese patent medicine wound medicine from Daming on the wound of the girl with broken leg. There are many kinds of precious Chinese herbal medicine ingredients in this Chinese patent medicine, the most important of which is Panax notoginseng, snake gall bladder, bezoar, musk, etc. Said Babaodan.

Because this thing has obvious effects on bruises, anti-inflammatory and pain relief, Emperor Yun Zhao, when he heard about this thing in Zhangzhou 20 years ago, specially sent someone to buy the prescription of Babaodan at the price of eight thousand taels of silver. , A large pharmacy was established in Zhangzhou to produce this stuff.

I also gave this Babao Pill a name that fits the characteristics of Zhangzhou-Pien Tze Huang!

Nowadays, this thing has become an effective Chinese patent medicine of popular Daming, and after ten years of concentrated research by experts from the Ministry of Health, the governance effect of this thing has become more obvious.

The girl’s leg was broken, and it was just right to use this medicine.

He not only administered medicine to the girl named Cara, but also found a wooden board to help her fix the position of her broken leg, which looked very gentle.

With the support of love, the niece of the Earl of Sicily seemed very strong. As long as little Descartes was by her side, she would be very tenacious and considerate.

With the help of Professor Paris, little Descartes quickly understood the extraordinary thing about this young girl.

Because her ancestor was the famous Robert, and this Robert was an outstanding and heroic star.

He quickly expanded his family territory and married the Lombard nobles of Salerno, which was recognized by the Pope.

Four hundred years ago, Pope Nicholas II named Robert the Duke of Apulia, Calabria and Sicily, and Robert was loyal to the Pope.

Later, he cleared the Byzantine stronghold and attacked Sicily with his brother Roger.

In the coming year, it went straight to Constantinople and defeated Byzantium, and in 1084 the Northern Expedition to Rome rescued Pope Gregory, which is unparalleled in the world.

Since then, the Robert family has been inherited for more than four hundred years, and it is considered the most famous family in the Kingdom of Sicily, and this Kara is the direct line of the Robert family.

Therefore, Professor Paris has found that little Descartes has a beautiful love with this little girl.

Little Descartes was very happy, but, whether it was Professor Paris or Little Girl Kara, they all understood it wrong, thinking that Little Descartes was very interested in the little girl’s family.

What they didn’t know was that the reason why little Descartes chose this little girl to save and serve as a testimony of his kindness was not because of this little girl’s prominent family background, but because he had been walking on the square for so long. The girl is the only woman whose body does not emit a bad smell. What’s more important is that her weight is very light, it is easy to take care of, and her leg is broken and she will not run around.

The environment in the prison is good, at least the food is like this, but these rough foods still can’t satisfy the sensitive appetite of little Descartes’s sensitive appetite brought back by Zhang Liang and Qiao Yong, the senior chef.

I have to say that Daming’s chefs are of very high standards. Even if they cook Roman food, they are a hundred times more delicious and ten times more beautiful than those cooked by Roman chefs!

Little Descartes is a kid who likes to learn everything, especially things that involve Da Ming, he will not let go.

Therefore, after being imprisoned for three days and eating pig food for three days, he decided to ask the cardinal for a kitchen for him. He hoped that the nobles who were imprisoned here would still be charged even when the charges have not yet been determined. Can enjoy the treatment of nobility.

Cardinal Aspeter thought to little Descartes how to eat in this environment. He felt that this was a manifestation of the fact that their scholars had no ghosts in their hearts, so he agreed, but he only provided a large amount of pasta.

This thing is said to be the food that Marco Polo brought back from Ming. It was not popular at the beginning. It was only when people discovered that the pasta could be dried and the food could be preserved for a long time, which made the pasta popular.

The original pasta was kneaded, sliced ​​and dried in this way, and cooked in an oven with meat and vegetables when eating. Therefore, in the streets and squares of many cities on the Italian peninsula, you can see stretched noodles and dried noodles everywhere. people. It is said that the longest noodle is 800 meters long.

However, because pasta was a product of the Romans to deal with food shortages, most of the favored people were the poor, but its deliciousness soon became irresistible to all classes. Pasta tastes very juicy and watery, which is quite inconvenient. In the early days, people used their fingers to grasp, and after eating, they licked their fingers dipped in juice.

Europeans still eat by hand at this time. As for the knife and fork, they have not yet flourished, and they are even despised by the clergy.

They do not accept the way of eating with a fork, and even hate it. They believe that humans should touch the food given by God with their hands, and using a fork is disrespectful to God. They told the world that people were tempted by Satan to create tableware, which is an act of blasphemy.

Therefore, most of the way of eating is still grasping with your hands, but the common people use five fingers to grasp the food, while the educated nobles use three fingers to grasp the food. The ring finger and little finger should not get food.

The number of fingers used when eating represents the different identities of the Romans.

When the Ming people eat noodles with a low taste, they are very particular about all kinds of sauces or sauces. Therefore, when little Descartes saw a large package of pasta, he couldn’t help but smile.

He naturally learned how to make beef sauce. The sad Mr. Descartes brought little Emily, and at the same time he brought him a delicious tomato sauce. After adding peppers, a world-renowned spaghetti was just like this. Came out.

Food is a natural temptation for any animal, especially when little Descartes is making tomato beef sauce, even the high-ranking Cardinal Aspet could not help coming to this small kitchen.

He carefully checked the ingredients that Little Descartes brought from outside, especially the tomato sauce. Europeans stubbornly believed that wolf peaches were not eaten, and Little Descartes was too lazy to argue. He rotten the tomatoes and made tomato sauce, but Tell others that this is a special kind of berry with a delicious taste.

Cardinal Aspeter deliberately let little Descartes eat the first plate of pasta, and then, until late at night, little Descartes, as the chief cook, never had the opportunity to eat this thing again.

When the injured Cara was eating noodles like a mouse, she was very embarrassed because she always had to grasp it with her hands. It was not until Little Descartes made a four-toothed wooden fork and taught her to use it. Eat at Little Descartes pasta.

With the popularity of this beef sauce noodles, the famous saying of Little Descartes spread out.

“Our stomach is the most noble existence in the body. I don’t want to let it suffer the slightest grievance. The food I make by myself is the most suitable for my body. I firmly believe in this.”

Zhang Liang, who continued to stay in Rome, quickly flipped through a book after hearing these words, and then left Rome for Paris the next day.

Now that Little Descartes stated that he was safe and sound, Zhang Liang felt that he had become a burden to the child, and it would be better to leave earlier.

Sure enough, little Descartes expected.

After Cardinal Aspeter dealt with 27 nobles, he finally drew a ferocious counterattack from the nobles, and had to announce the release of a group of people 15 days after the Pope was assassinated.

And the first person to walk out of the prayer house was little Descartes.

After half a month, I came to the square again. It didn’t get any better here. On the contrary, it was because of two rains that turned the church square into a big quagmire.

The smell of rotting corpses still came from under the tall rubble. The Knights only removed the visible corpses. As for the corpses under the rubble, there was nothing they could do, even if six people were buried inside. The body of the cardinal.

Little Descartes also heard that the Pope is still alive today. The Knights have gathered twenty of the most brilliant beak doctors from all over Europe to treat the Pope’s injuries day and night.

There are many treatments that Little Descartes has never heard of.

Now, these beak doctors are sparingly sawing the pope’s injured leg. I heard that they have saw it twice, and after each sawing, they will seal the wound with a soldering iron.

Little Descartes admired the strength of the Pope’s crown. Little Descartes who had studied Da Ming’s “Pathology” understands that in June when the weather is getting hotter, the Pope is basically helpless, and he doesn’t know how many legs the Pope has. Long, how many times can I persist!

In this attack, the Holy See suffered heavy losses. The cardinal alone lost as many as nine. The remaining clergymen, large and small, killed 37 people in the attack.

The loss of the Roman nobles was also extremely heavy. Just because there was no inheritance from the descendants, there were four nobles who were dismissed from their titles, and 62 nobles died in the attack on the spot.

Two dukes, one marquis, six earls…

This is an unprecedented assassination.

Not only did the nobles in Rome frighten one by one, even the royal families in other parts of Europe were silent about this incident.

In view of the fact that the enemy has begun to carry out large-scale killings in Europe, the European royal families with blood ties have also formed military alliances in the first time.

Some people even clamored to launch another crusade. This time, the target was the Ottoman Empire.

The news that Alexander VII is planning to support 16 universities under the crown is no longer mentioned. In Rome, in Europe, it is normal for people to die.

In political activities, if the east wind cannot overwhelm the west wind, then the west wind will surely counterattack.

Everyone supported by Pope Alexander VII is now being opposed. For example, the restraint of the heretical inquisition, the originally ambitious Inquisition, taking advantage of the opportunity of the pope’s lingering bed, once again launched a plan to eliminate witches. , Spain alone burned a hundred and eighty witches to death in five days.

This incident dealt a great blow to Mr. Descartes…

After dinner, Mr. Descartes called little Descartes into the study, and neither grandma and grandson seemed to be in a good mood.

In the end, Mr. Descartes said: “The demon of war is about to come to Europe again. They have fought for 30 years, but they still haven’t fought enough, and still feel that not enough people have died.”

Little Descartes frowned: “It’s cruel~www.mtlnovel.com~Grandfather, can I put you and Emily there to be relieved?”

Mr. Descartes shook his head and said: “The war is about to ignite all over Europe. Nowhere is safe.”

“What about Britain?”

“No, although the Protestantism in Britain has already occupied an absolute advantage, after the death of the pope, the rest of the believers in Christ will regard Britain as a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh.

Especially Spain, they are so worried about the destruction of the Invincible Fleet. I even think that the flames of war will be the first to burn at sea. “

“Grandfather, the Spaniards have fallen.”

Mr. Descartes shook his head and said: “This time is different. The Spaniards did not know that they had obtained six new warships from there. At the same time, their artillery has also been greatly improved.

I heard that the person who handled it was the former Earl of Rennes of the Dutch East India Company! “

Little Descartes nodded and fell into contemplation. He felt it was time to take a break.
