The hero is a portrait

Este Castle stands in front of a blue sky, as if painted on a blue canvas.The forest in the distance becomes a ribbon that decorates the horizon. There is a T-shaped road in front of the main gate of the castle. In front of it is a piece of green grass, with trimmed shrubs surrounding the lawn.In the rear is a garden with pale pomegranate flowers.

On the second floor of the castle, the golden curtains were pulled aside, and a man was leaning against the window. His complexion was lighter among the Spaniards, a light honey color.A rare black straight hair fell to his shoulders.One side of the temple hair was pinned behind the ear, but there was still a strand of hair hanging down, and a few strands of black fluttered repeatedly.

He is Alfonso Este, Duke of Aragon, with the blood of the precious Ibizan Hound, and it is the owner of this castle.

His butler is standing respectfully behind him at the moment, reporting to him the situation of the visitor:

"... Bishop Borgia came to visit... about his appointment as Pope..."

"Tell him I'm not here."

Duke Alfonso interrupted the steward very flatly, deciding that this was a nasty transaction that would neither interest him nor help him much.In fact, this is indeed the case. Bishop Rodriguez Borgia is running around in order to be the Pope of Rome. He is trying to take a shortcut-to win over the electors by any means.For this he needs a large sum of bribe money, and he came to Aragon to meet Duke Alfonso shyly for this purpose.

Although Rodri Borgia still wanted to fight for it again, he had no excuses, so he had to leave with Levidan.The two walked out of the main entrance of Este Castle, and the servants on the side brought Rodrigo's horse.Levi Dan followed and waited aside, during which time he kicked the lawn with his hoof a little bored.

Alfonso Estebe's hand, which was about to close the window, suddenly stayed there when he saw this scene unconsciously.He turned around, lowered his head and whispered something to the accompanying male servant.Soon someone caught up with Rodri, who was about to ride away on horseback. The visitor said very politely that there might be rain in the evening, and there is still a distance from Este Castle to Rodri's accommodation. Take a rest at Castle Castle and make plans tomorrow.

Rodri glanced at the blue sky, and quickly realized that he had indeed been ignored by the owner of Castle Este. He was a little ashamed and puzzled at why the other party changed his attitude in a blink of an eye, but he was honored and joyful on his face The color of the other party is also speaking in his mouth to praise the other party's hospitality.

When the evening approached, it really started to rain. For a moment, Rodri didn't know whether the host wanted to discuss with him, or it was purely out of the friendship of the host.Levidan didn't know his troubles, he was playing in the garden.The garden is very vast, and the roads in it are intricate and complicated. The castle not far away is close in front of you, but it seems like the sky. Levi Dan blocked the rain on his eyebrows with his arms, and broke into a greenhouse in a moment of desperation.

The internal volume of this glass greenhouse is quite considerable, which shows that the owner has an elegant interest in cultivating flowers.

The wooden shelves on both sides of the greenhouse are filled with delicate flowers. In the center is a log table covered with a square tablecloth and a pot of black mountain soil mixed with peat soil.An inch-thick cowhide book was spread out next to the flower pot, and the pages contained "Margaret's cultivation method...".A man in a black court uniform—however, he was dressed a little casually, with only a neat white shirt on and the coat draped casually behind his back—was turning his back to Levitan, leaning over to cut a light pink mascara Stems of Gerrit, used as cuttings.

He had already heard the sound of unfamiliar hooves stepping into the greenhouse, but he turned around after gently cutting off Margaret—at that moment, through the overlapping scents of flowers, Levidan smelled a familiar scent. Slightly bitter scent of magnolia flowers.

Claudius-Drusus?

For a moment, Levidan was really suspicious. He looked sideways at the man in front of him, but the man in front of him had a face completely different from that of Claudius Drusus.He placed the branch of Margaret on the flower pot, and when he spoke, his fingers caressed the end of the bulging paper unconsciously:

"You're soaking wet."

From his attire, one could imagine his dignity, but his tone was very humble and gentle.

Levidan took the towel he handed over to dry his hair, but it was not very useful, his pants were all wet, and his fur was very uncomfortable.But obviously there is no clothes and pants for Li Weidan to change.As a brief visit, Levi Dan obviously did not bring pants to the Castle of Este.

"plz follow me."

The man opened the umbrella, but the umbrella could only cover Levidan's half body, so the man took off his coat and put it on Levidan's horse.When the two walked to the back door of the castle, the man's shirt was already wet.It was quiet in the castle, and no one could be seen.The man didn't ring the bell to call the servant, but took Levidan directly to a bathroom.

Li Weidan went in and took a shower under the man's signal. Fortunately, the towel was long enough to be swung to his buttocks to dry his buttocks.But here comes the question... what about a change of clothes?Li Weidan thought that he was a man anyway, so he casually put on an ill-fitting bathrobe and went out.

He wanted to ask the man for a solution, but saw that the man was ironing his clothes with a copper iron.

When the smell of earth and wind and rain dissipated outside, he could clearly smell the bitter breath from the man's soul.This breath that once pierced him made him resist, but the familiarity in it made him feel relaxed because he felt trusted—this is really a strange experience.

Being a centaur - and that's okay with clothes - and trousers is definitely a tough sport.

It's not enough to slip the rear and front feet into the trouser legs; the zipper that opens to the lower crotch must also be zipped to the front shoulders.This is the time to test your flexibility... First, you must bend your body downwards, and second, extend your arms as far as possible until your fingers reach between the back thighs... Considering that this posture is too weird, Li Wei Once it's not easy to use it in front of people.

On the contrary, that man, who was very smart and obedient—when Levi Dan frantically put on his trousers and stood there in a daze—spontaneously knelt down on one knee to Li Weidan's side, and pulled the zipper under his belly.

"You can rest here."

——Then he hurried away shyly.

Until dinner time, Rodri failed to see Alfonso Este, the man who inherited the title at the age of 28.However, the dinner for entertaining guests was prepared very thoughtfully, with every detail showing no sign of negligence.

Just when Rodri thought that the olive branch he handed out had already sunk in the sea, the chief steward of Castle Este brought him new news——

In order for Rodri Borgia to better carry out God's will, Alfonso Este is willing to provide 10 Aragonese gold coins.But the Duke has a request: he hopes to marry the Portia family.

Although Rodrik knew that the 10 gold coins would not be given in vain, he was still stunned by the request:

You must know that Rodri has only claimed three heirs so far, and the gender of each is male.
