After hearing Hurd's words, Zhu Houzhao nodded.

Zhu Houzhao now has roughly known the history of Franchise.

It's true that my Emperor Taizu beat Chen Youliang to death, killed Chen Youliang, destroyed Zhang Shicheng, and beat the Northern Yuan Dynasty. This led to the Ming Dynasty. But the Habsburg family, relying on marriage, inherited Spain, Sicily, Naples, and countless territories.

The power of this family is that there is no one in Franji who is not his relative, and the males in the family even choose those women with inheritance rights.

Thinking of his desperate efforts, staring at the map for half his life, thinking about how to expand territory, Zhu Houzhao felt like a mouthful of old blood was almost spurting out.

Zhu Houzhao calmed down and said, "What do his parents mean? After all, they are the words of the matchmakers of their parents' orders, so this rule cannot be messed up."

Hurd smiled and said, "I have said that she lost her mother since childhood. Her father is now the Regent of Spain. Given that her sister has deposed the queen due to her mental problems, she believes that she will inherit the throne in no time. At the same time, because her father is the descendant of the Duke of Austria, if she can get the support of His Majesty, there will be great hope for inheriting the Duke of Austria. Austria has always been the old Holy Roman Emperor. Once His Majesty is united with her, the electorates of Germany will inevitably surrender to His Majesty."

After pausing, Hurd said confidently: "They dare not choose His Majesty."

"I still need to choose?" Zhu Houzhao sneered. If they don't choose me, I will wipe out all these German princes.

Hurd continued: "The Regent of Spain is the descendant of the pseudo-Holy Roman Emperor defeated by His Majesty. The Holy Roman Emperor has collapsed. The Habsburg family is very worried about this. The King of Spain is also afraid of going to war with His Majesty's Ming navy in the Spanish fleet. The double-headed owl family in Austria has always disliked solving problems through war. They prefer to solve problems through marriage, so they are trying their best to promote this marriage."

Zhu Houzhao understood that Shenluo had collapsed and the Spanish Regent felt in danger, especially the Regent from Austria, who was not very harmonious with the local nobles of Spain. The reason why he was able to master the national affairs of Spain was not only due to the title of the late Queen Isabel's husband, but also because of the strong support of the Boothbow family of the Holy Roman Empire. Now, Shenluo has been destroyed, and the Boothbow family is now under Zhu Houzhao's iron hooves, and his status has begun to become unstable.

Because of this, he urgently needed the support of Zhu Houzhao through marriage.

For him, although the newly emerged Supreme Holy Roman Emperor, although he was a foreign race, he launched an Eastern Expedition and gained great legitimacy. At the same time, facts have proved that his strength is amazing and sufficient to consolidate the Regent's position in Spain.

In exchange, it was reasonable that the first heir of the Austrian Regent married Zhu Houzhao.

As for the Habs family in Austria, they obviously felt in danger. They have always maintained their noble status in Franchise through marriage. If they can match this marriage, it will obviously be beneficial to their current unfavorable position.

In fact, for them, it really doesn’t matter who they marry. The most important thing is whether this can maintain their own interests.

Zhu Houzhao was quite satisfied and said without hesitation: "I will leave this matter to you to continue negotiating. As for this wedding date, you will discuss it with them."

Hurd said with a smile: "However, there are some minor troubles. The French seem to have always wanted to interfere in secret about this marriage. They have always been in harmony with the Habsburg family. Your Majesty, see, should you find a way to appease them?"

Zhu Houzhao knew that when he arrived at Franc, the main axis of the entire Franc continent was France surrounded by the entire Habsburg family.

To the south is Italy controlled by Habsburg, to the west is Spain, and to the east is Emperor Shenluo who was elected by the elected emperors.

It is said that the Spanish regent had already intended to marry Princess Catherine to the King of England, which was obviously due to the intention of surrounding France. If this historical marriage was successful, France would be trapped in all directions.

But no one expected that Zhu Houzhao would come, and his arrival would break this balance.

Of course, in history, after being trapped in this embattled man, France colluded with the Ottomans without hesitation and established an alliance with the alien race.

It can be seen from this that these Franchise monarchs only think about their own interests, and can do anything in order to consolidate their rule.

Zhu Houzhao narrowed his eyes, revealing a deep look, and said, "Don't pay attention to him. I am the king of Franji. Whether he is happy or unhappy, if he dares to emerge, I will kill his nine clans. If he can be sensible, it would be fine."

Zhu Houzhao has his own rules when dealing with such monarchs’ complaints, that is, he will never indulge them.

It’s not that he was unwilling to use the means of mercy, but that he has learned the art of emperors since he was a child. Although this level must be worrying in the Ming Dynasty, it is quite like a fish in water here.

Zhu Houzhao knew very well that the best way to intimidate these monarchs now is to create tension for them. Only when they are nervous and anxious will they bribe themselves.

Zhu Houzhao held his chin and turned his eyes to the map. If marriage was just a political means to recover these Franchise men, then how to invade Istanbul is the top priority now.

He probably knew that the Ottomans' fighting methods were now in Franchis, and there were 300,000 troops and horses that could be mobilized. But he knew very well that except for the navy, the rest of the people had their own ulterior motives.

This kind of temporary coalition is actually OK to expect them to fight a battle with the wind. Once a situation is against the wind, they may kill each other or everyone will rush to escape.
