Egeno I of Konradsburg

1070 Egeno I came to be King Henry IV against and to have of this even get the order to murder the king with the claim to the public privy to a conspiracy of the Saxon Count and Duke of Bavaria, Otto II of Northeim. The aim of the conspiracy was obviously the complete overthrow of the Duke of Bavaria and his expropriation; access to Saxon and Thuringian territories would be so easy for Henry IV. Since Otto is the arranged ordeal, a duel with the socially far deeper and standing on top of a bad reputation Egeno, did not arise under the imperial ban was imposed on him. Otto allied it with Magnus Billung and took up arms, but had to admit defeat already 1071 and was briefly detained.

As instigator and author of the conspiracy count Giso II were referred from the House of Gisonen and Count Adalbert of Schauenburg. You should probably have with knowledge of Henry IV, forged the plan, formulated the indictment and supported by the purchased Egeno to the public. Giso and Adalbert was slain in 1073 by Otto's followers on the Gisonen Castle Hollende.

Egeno to 1073 blinded as punishment for highway robbery and thereafter be considered as a beggar by the country.
