Conquer the Dawn of Heaven
Vol 4 Chapter 41: Roman fear
Rome.
There has never been suffocation and depression, and this time is covering this millennium ancient city.
Whether it's a street, an aristocratic luxury mansion, a civilian low and narrow dwelling, or an inconspicuous tavern, an event that no one dared to publicly speak loudly but was talking about everywhere became Rome. People talk about various topics.
Who was killed by Giovanni Borgia, Duke of Gandino!
Giovanni's death really shocked too many people!
People are not unacceptable to Giovanni's death. Even when the news of his death came, some people were drunk because they were happy that day, and people were surprised. It was more who the murderer was.
As one of Alexander VI's most beloved illegitimate children, Giovanni and his brothers have always been the people of great concern in Rome. When people talk about the pope's indescribable private life, he will always talk about his few. A child who obtains power through the protection of his father.
Giovanni, as the military commander of the Borgia family who deliberately cultivated his position in Alexander VI, took advantage of his father's pope status and firmly grasped the military power of the papacy.
This astounding behavior was once one of the evidences of countless people who attacked Alexander VI's greed and depravity. Now it is this man who was so prominent in Rome who was found dead in the Tiber River, and behind his death. , But one after another more shocking guesses and doubts.
Some people say that Giovanni left with his entourage after attending a banquet, but he left very early, and no one could make it clear where he went after that.
Others said that the last person who saw Giovanni alive could prove that he came out of a small house when it was almost late at night.
And the owner of the house is really his brother Jeffrey's wife Xia Sang.
More rumors come from a rumor that is more incredible, but it can even arouse people's imagination.
That was the last time Giovanni was seen before his death, at a market not far from Piazza della Cala.
And passing from this square, and then passing a bridge across the Tiber River, continue to move forward is the Portico Palace.
Everyone knows what this statement is suggesting. Lukrezia, who is the owner of the Portico Palace, and her two elder brothers are full of ambiguous rumors. It will involve the Pope himself. At this time, once such rumors flowed again in all corners of the city of Rome like a terrible poison, people's ideas have become extended in some unimaginable directions.
Who is the murderer?
The Pope or the enemy of Giovanni?
Someone who is jealous because his wife has an affair with Giovanni?
Or someone who could benefit from Giovanni's death?
Or is it something that someone who is both hostile and jealous, and who gets more benefits after murdering him?
All kinds of guesses gradually became clear, but the answer was shocking and terrifying.
Jeffrey, Xia San's husband, Giovanni's brother, this identity seems to be very suitable to be the suspected murderer.
But if you think about it carefully, another more suitable murderer slowly surfaced.
Although this person is not currently in Rome, it is this person who can get the most benefit from Giovanni's death-Caesar Borgia.
Also because of ambiguous rumors with Lucrezia, which may cause jealousy, is also the illegitimate child of the pope who is pursuing worldly power after giving up the priesthood. More importantly, Giovanni can become the biggest beneficiary after his death. All reasons are directed at this fellow brother of Giovanni.
Cain, this metaphor for killing relatives began to secretly spread in the city of Rome.
There are two people enjoying this title, they are both brothers of Giovanni, and they are all surnamed Pogia!
No one dares to publicly discuss who the murderer is, because the pope has ordered to severely punish all those who dare to create rumors, but such an order does not stop people from talking privately, even because of this order, it has caused bolder speculations. .
The pope knows who killed his beloved son.
I do n’t know when this statement began to spread in the city of Rome, and then all kinds of speculations became more and more. People held their breaths and stared at the Vatican with their eyes wide open, because there was going to be a chaos that was only the most chaotic. The "fun" of brotherhood cannibalism only occurs in the era.
Lucrezia once again hid in Portico Palace, it was hard to imagine that she seemed to be the happiest woman in the world not long ago.
There is a father who loves her as the highest authority in the Christ world, a large group of family and brothers who regard her as a treasure, and a lover who seems to suddenly emerge and then gives her a storm-like love.
At that time, Lucrezia decided to believe that he was the happiest person in the world.
It seemed that all the good things were given to her, which made her even vaguely anxious, worried that this happiness might one day come to an abrupt end.
Then her hunch was terrified, her relatives, brothers, were murdered.
When she heard this terrible news, Lucrezia was with Zuo Sha. She was a little nervous at the time, because she self-introduced Zuo Sha to her other friend, Julia Farne.
Lucrezia remembers the contradiction between Julia and Alexander, or it was more appropriate to hate.
At that time, Lucrezia also hated the foreigner who came from Naples because of seeing Julia's desperation because of her brother's death.
But now she wants to introduce Alexander's sister to Julia, which makes Lucrezia a little nervous. She is not only worried that her new and old friends will be embarrassed after meeting, but also worried that they will be emotional and even fight.
Julia would definitely not be able to beat Zuosha, and her followers could not, even the knights around her might not be able to beat Zuosha.
After seeing Rusha's ability to shoot arrows, Lucrezia worshipped Alexander's sister so much, not to mention that she dared to use the muskets that made people feel terrible.
Lucrezia thinks that Rosa is simply a character like Jeanne de France. If she doesn't like beautiful clothes and is also interested in various headwear and jewelry, Lucrezia will think that Rosa is a different legend.
But before seeing Julia, the bad news first reached the Potico Palace.
When I heard the news, Lucrezia was a little dazed. She didn't know what it meant. What happened to Giovanni, and who died?
Then when he finally understood what was happening, Lucrezia didn't even have time to make a cry, and immediately fainted in the arms of Ruosha who had embraced her.
At that time, the scene was indescribable, and the entire Portico Palace fell into chaos as if the end came.
Everyone is shouting, everyone only knows to run around blindly, but they don't know what they want to do.
The Duke of Gandino died and was murdered. This news scared everyone.
What makes them even more afraid is who else will be killed next, does this mean that the Borgia family is facing the disaster of extinction?
At that moment, when Lucrezia woke up, she saw at first sight Lao Sha who was standing by her side, and several usually loyal followers, but more people only had panic at this time.
At this time, Lao Sha showed a surprising calmness. In the name of the Countess of Cosenza, she ordered the guards of the Portico Palace to be vigilant immediately. While protecting Lukrezija, she did not forget to send someone to notify It is said that Julia Farne will come here.
After these orders were given, Lucrezia seemed to wake up from the initial accident. She didn't believe the news first, and then when she got repeated answers from others, she finally broke out in painful wailing.
Looking at Lucrezia's lifeless look, Ruosha was a little bit fascinated for a while.
She remembered what Alexander said to her, and remembered that Alexander wanted her to be with Lucrezia on this day anyway, and she even promised Lucrezia to meet the pope's mistress for this.
But how did Alexander know that such an amazing accident would happen on this day?
Did he know that Giovanni would be murdered the night before? !
Or, the one who murdered the Duke of Gandino was Alexander?
This thought was only crushed by Ruo Sha's heart, but even at this moment, Ruo Sha felt the coolness on her forehead.
Impossible, the murder of Giovanni is not good for Alexander. On the contrary, from the signs after Giovanni's return, it is more beneficial for Alexander to live.
At least, on some public occasions after returning to Rome, Giovanni praised Alexander for his bravery on the battlefield.
This made Lucrezia privately say to Ruosha that Alexander must please Giovanni for her.
But how did Alexander know that Giovanni would be murdered, even when the murder was so clear?
Ruosha tried her best to suppress her uneasiness. She knew that it was important to appease Lucrezia at this time. At the same time, she also understood that Alexander told her to be optimistic about Lucrezia's purpose.
At this time, Lucrezia is undoubtedly the most vulnerable, and she will easily become her spiritual support and even her master in her side.
"What do you want to do, Alexander, or what are you doing?" Ruosha thought secretly, but she also knew that this was indeed a rare opportunity, so she tried to comfort Lucrezia, who was in extreme pain, while ordering people Immediately returned to Marino Palace to summon her men.
The Marino Palace clearly got the news, so the person who came was Uliu.
Masimo stayed at the Palace of Marino. The terrible news that has spread throughout the city made the whole Roman city panic. At this time, the Palace of Marino obviously needed a more powerful person.
Ruo Sha was not there. As a monk with a close relationship between Lord Earl and Miss Count, she became the natural leader of the Marino Palace.
Ruosha's purpose in recruiting Uliu was to send a letter to Alexander.
She believed that regardless of whether the murder was related to him, Alexander would want to know what happened in Rome as soon as possible.
Ruosha wanted to write a letter, but she soon woke up.
She knows that it is very easy to expose flaws at this time. Maybe a few words may be discovered inadvertently. Someone may even find that there is no way to recover the loopholes. Even she may question Alexander consciously or unconsciously Once such a thing falls into the hands of a caring person, it will become a terrible disaster.
So Rusha decided to let only Uliu take the message. She believed that the Moorish cleverness could do the job.
It's just that Ruosha never thought that the appearance of Alexander VI disrupted her plan.
This was the first time Rusha had officially met the Pope. When she saw Alexander VI who had hurriedly walked in from the outside, Rusha was a little bit dazed.
The ruler of the Christ world, the agent of God and **** Christ in the world.
Even if he knew he was not tall, he had some hunchbacks, and even the old man on his clothes who overturned the traces of wine on the glass because of the bad news was just a fallen priest with several mistresses and illegitimate children. Excited and trembling slightly.
When she bowed her salute, she could only look at the feet that hurried past her, although the feet seemed to pause in front of her when she passed, but when she looked up, Alexander VI hurried past So, Ruosha didn't see clearly what the Pope looked like.
The arrival of Alexander VI caused a commotion in Portico Palace.
Because of the sudden murder, the protection of the pope is clearly tighter, and no one can enter or leave at will, even the followers who are usually favored are cautious, lest they cause suspicion by others at this time.
In this way, Uliu, who had just arrived at the Portico Palace, was also trapped in the palace. Despite the anxiety and tension, when he finally got free and left the city of Rome with the words of Rosa, it was already 2 days later in June. 17th.
And Alexander's army had already set off from Montina on this day to march towards Rome.
Ruosha did not know the news that Alexander VI sent someone to Alexander, but she knew that the Pope had sent someone to Caesar just after hearing that Giovanni had been killed.
Was he worried that his beloved son would suffer the same fate, or because he also heard some bad rumors about Caesar, or the pope himself guessed that way?
Ruosha didn't know which one was the truth, but compared with other people who started to think about their abacus after hearing the news, she felt that only Lucrezia was really sad for her brother's death.
The pain of losing her loved one made her wake up even in her sleep, and then she lay on the bed and cried while crying, "My poor brother." That made Rusha's heart lift a little lightly. Guilt.
Alexandria, did you really know all this, then why are you not preventing this from happening?
Luo Sha asked this in her heart, and then she quickly stopped thinking about these questions.
She knew that Alexander should have his reasons. Although she did not know the reasons, Ruosha had decided not to investigate.
In addition to Lucrecia, Alexander VI was another truly sad person. The people around him found that the pope seemed to be much older overnight, and some people secretly said that the death of Duke Gandino knocked the pope down. He 'S spirit is collapsing, which finally made people around Alexander VI realize that if Caesar could not come back in time, maybe the Borgia family might face another crisis.
The Pope ’s personal secretary had to send letters to Caesar in succession, urging Caesar to return to Rome as soon as possible while telling about his brother ’s bad news.
"You are now the only hope for the Borgia family," the secretary wrote anxiously in the letter. "There are too many people who want to see us fall. This is the biggest crisis after the Borgia family came to Rome. Now The only person who can save the Borgia family is you. "
Nomello, who had always been calm, had to change the wrong words several times because of his panic. The huge sense of crisis made him even have no mood to transcribe again, and sent someone to send the letter.
He believed that after seeing such a letter, Caesar should be able to realize how dangerous the situation was.
Unlike other people who feel panicked and confused, Jeffrey Borgia is very excited.
When the news of Giovanni ’s death came, Sang Xia fell into a sudden death like Lucrecia because of surprise and perhaps only her own knowledge. Someone beside their husband and wife later quietly revealed that Jeffrey Sitting there in a daze, his gaze glanced at his wife who was being cared for by the busy servants, and then there was a strange smile on his face that made the people next to him look cold.
It was a kind of expression that seemed to hear the news that I had been looking forward to, and now I finally got my wish.
It is this unusual attitude that makes people afraid of Jeffrey.
Many people seem to have known this bear child for the first time, and thought of his strange look. Many people couldn't help but believe that he sold his soul to the devil.
And the next move by Jeffrey proved how much he hated his brother.
He suddenly announced that he was going to hold a grand banquet in his home, which was larger than usual. As for the reason, he said naughtyly to the people around him: "Jeffrey wants to have some fun for Jeffrey."
When his unusual behavior caused controversy, so that no one dared to attend his banquet, Jeffrey, regardless of his wife's worry, ordered his men to prepare all kinds of traveling and hunting equipment, ready to come and go Walking trip.
Fortunately, his crazy actions were terminated by Alexander VI's reprimand, otherwise no one would know what he would do even more.
But even so, there are rumors that Jeffrey is angry at his wife Xia Sang's grief.
He deliberately made people sing cheerful songs in front of Xia Sang.
There are rumors that he forced Xia Sang to sleep with him, and at the same time shouted in front of his servant, "It is only me who can do your husband's responsibility now. Whether you want it or not, you must admit that you can only be my wife."
All this made the Romans feel uneasy. People did not know what Alexander VI would do after the sudden loss of their beloved son, so that some guilds in the city had strictly ordered their men not to make trouble.
The Rome City Hall sent almost everyone to track down the murderer. They blocked the Dracula Square where the murder occurred. Numerous city hall officials were scrutinizing everything on the land carefully. They were so careful that they almost took the whole piece. The land is turned over.
But the perpetrator was obviously a real expert, and the heavy rain that night helped the murderer. Except for a few ordinary people who happened to have seen Giovanni finally appear near this square, he proved that he had been to this place, and there was no trace of it. There has been a terrible murder here.
As for why Giovanni came to this Jewish gathering area alone late in the evening, no one could tell.
After the murderer, the murderer disappeared into the criss-cross streets and alleys of Rome, which made everyone feel that everyone around him may be the terrible murderer.
Panic spread in the city of Rome, everything was so confusing, the truth was hidden behind a mysterious curtain called a conspiracy, so that people did not even dare to really explore what happened that night.
The guards of the Vatican strengthened their guards, because they feared that more terrible things might happen, and the dignitaries also strengthened their guards.
The residences of the officials of Aragon and the Roman Empire have been completely protected by their own army, the Swiss Guard of Giuliano de la Rovere has entered his villa in the middle of the mountain, and many dignitaries also took the opportunity to recruit servants in the name of self-preservation Bing.
For a time, after passing through the initial shaking and restlessness, the city of Rome quickly fell into a wonderful silence.
Nomelo sensed this seemingly calm turmoil, and he had to write to Caesar again to urge him to return to Rome as soon as possible, although there were signs that it seemed that the main messenger who murdered Giovanni was Caesar himself, but Nomelo But he knew that in order to overcome the difficulties ahead, even if he lied publicly, he had to find a way to prove that Caesar was innocent.
It's just that Alexander VI seems to have fallen into a kind of numbness that has become abnormal. He shut himself in the room and saw no one. For this reason, Nomelo had to break the precedent that he never made his appearance and found a few privately. Cardinal.
He had only one purpose, hoping to declare Caesar innocent in the name of the Holy See.
For Nomelo ’s request, the cardinals showed little strange strange silence, which made Nomelo even more secretly shocked. He did not know if someone was planning to secretly prepare to attack the wave through Giovanni ’s death. The Gea family, but obviously, those cardinals who had previously bowed their ears to the pope now have other ideas.
Nomelo had never expected a person like he did now. He asked Skop, the herald of the Order Meeting, to wait outside the city and repeatedly told him to **** him to the Vatican as soon as he saw Caesar.
Skop was very conscientious. Although he knew that it would not be possible to go from Naples to Rome so quickly after receiving the news, since the messenger left, he began to wait at the city gate early every day.
first day……
the next day……
On the third day ...
On the morning of the fourth day ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Skop saw the shadow of an army.
Facing the fiery sunlight above his head, Skop saw a group of troops walking forward as if the soul had been taken away.
Their muddy faces were numb and indifferent. The clothes on their bodies could not see the original color. Except for the sounds made by their feet when they moved forward mechanically like a clockwork, this army was so silent People feel tremors.
Skop's eyes narrowed slightly, and he stared at the strange army in front of him. When he saw the same gray flag that was stained with an invisible pattern, the herald's breath suddenly became sharp.
At this time, he saw a person in front of the team striding towards him, even though the face was also dirty because he was not clear, but Skop already knew who this person was.
Sure enough, the man came to a place not far in front of Skop, he first stood still and took a breath, then said aloud:
"Alexander Juliant Gumbre, Earl of Montina, returned to Rome by the order of His Majesty the Pope!"
