Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

Masked man, when he heard the name, Alexander first thought of the mysterious masked man who had seen him in the City Hall first, and then attacked the Marino Palace late at night when he was not in Rome!

Masks are always props to cover up the truth. People will be afraid of masks because of the fear of the unknown.

Even the most cowardly person, wearing a mask may become another demon that no one knows. When a mask covers a person's face, he often does things that even he will feel afraid of. .

Alexander could not forget that when Sophia shot the woman with a short crossbow, the masked person looked at their eyes, which were hatred and crazy eyes, like the eyes of revenge from the vortex of hell.

Because of this, Alexander was impressed by the eyes and the mask in front of him.

He has a feeling that that person will always appear again.

Now I heard that he was a masked person, and the first person Alexander thought of was that person.

"Someone saw the man coming to them," Constantine shook his head, and then looked at Alexander with deep eyes. "Do you think we should go find that person?"

Alexander looked at Constantine, he knew what the big uncle was playing.

The cooperation with the Borgia family has come to an end. As Old Rovere gets closer and closer to the cardinal, the conflict between the two families becomes more and more intense.

Alexander VI was obviously reluctant to see the old Rovere successfully promoted to Cardinal. For him, if there was one more Rovere at the cardinal meeting, there would not only be more enemies and opponents, but more than one future. The people of the Gea family pose a great threat.

Romagna ’s crisis has been resolved, so the next step is to deal with the previous allies.

Giovanni's death disrupted Alexander VI's plan, and if Rovere's family did not take the opportunity to make waves at this time, it would not be Rovere.

It's just that even if Guess Constantine's purpose of catching the murderer is not good, but the name of the mask person makes Alexander unable to release.

He still remembers the inexplicable fear when he heard that the man could actually sneak into the Marino Palace. He had a feeling that the man was always hiding in a dark place like a snake, and then stared at him and Sophia with cold eyes, waiting At a critical moment when they all neglected, then suddenly broke out and attacked with his terrible fangs!

Alexander looked at Constantine and noticed the weird smile on his face. He knew that it was the Rovere family who was in trouble for Borgia, but it was not against him.

The ambiguity with Lukrezija made his already unstable relationship with the Lowellé family seem to be more fragile, but Alexander knew that for the old Lowellé, he should not be treated now.

After all, with Caesar's abandoning the priesthood, and the previous fierce reaction to the Venetian actions, many people have seen Alexander VI's ambitions for Romagna.

Now he is a nail in Romagna.

Alexander walked across the confronting streets, and his eyes looked through the gap between the soldiers to the other side's street and the houses on both sides.

He didn't know if the mask man was watching his every move behind the window of a house.

Or that person is ready to deal with his assassination?

"We are going to search this place," Alexander said to a leading soldier across from him. He would continue without saying that the man said. "I will explain these things to the Earl of Cordoba, but now we must go and kill the Duke of Gandino." The murderer may be somewhere behind you, and the Duke is a faithful subject of Her Majesty the Queen. "

The dirty faces of the soldiers on the opposite side were dazed, and when they entered Rome, these soldiers from Aragon had made these soldiers from Aragon proud.

Consider that even the Pope was scolded by his generals, and the soldiers of Aragon even regarded themselves as conquerors of the city.

But now Alexander's words reminded the soldier that the illegitimate son of the dying pope was still a duke, a nobleman in front of Queen Castilla.

The soldier ’s lips moved. He did n’t want to give way, but Alexander had given him no chance. Just when he was a little hesitant, Alexander had walked past him, and then walked through the blocking team when the coalition soldiers were overwhelmed. To the street.

It doesn't feel good to stand alone in the middle of an empty street, it seems to be completely exposed to the enemy.

Alexander guessed that the mask man was hiding behind a window at this time, and maybe there would be a bow or a gunshot.

Alexander was actually nervous at the moment, his body tight, his eyes fixed on the messy house in front of him.

This is the easternmost area leading to Rome. From here, down the hill, you will enter the largest civilian area in Rome.

This is where criminals hide, and where various conspiracies are actually carried out.

If the conspiracy wine is brewing in the luxurious and luxurious palaces in Rome, then this place in the east of Rome is the place where this wine is fermented.

Poverty makes the people here despicable, and sometimes it may take a person's life just for a few copper coins. Under the glory of Rome, the glorious and prosperous capital of Christ, this place in the east of Rome is the most The dark part.

Alexander held his breath for a while, then slowly raised his hand and made a gesture back.

Constantine had already led people behind the allied forces that began to retreat silently. He walked to Alexandria, looked at the street in front of him, and lowered his voice as if afraid of disturbing someone and asked, "What did you find."

"What can be found."

Alexander smiled bitterly. He couldn't have the so-called keen observation. It wasn't even clear if the masked man had actually arrived in the eastern part of the city.

Or, this is purely a trick of the Rowley family.

"Aren't you going to search?" Constantine asked.

"Are you here?" Alexander gave Constantine a glance. "Trust me, if we dare to walk into this house, then we have no chance to see tomorrow's sun."

Constantine's mouth twitched slightly, like a smile.

"Or we should turn around and stay here is somewhat shameful." Constantine said with the help of his entourage, he turned and jumped on horseback. "Or you should report this to the pope, he should know what to do."

Is this your purpose?

Alexander glanced at Constantine silently.

He knew that the short alliance between Borgia and Rovere had collapsed.

"A masked person?"

Alexander VI slowly turned along the table. His eyes fell on Alexander from time to time. After a while he stopped and asked, "So do you believe in Constantine's words? A person who has no name and doesn't even know what he looks like. People, and then you clashed with Gonzalo ’s army with his encouragement, is n’t it a little too naive? "

"Your Majesty, what you want is to be able to trace the murderer who killed the Duke of Gandino," Alexander said quietly, and when he saw the lightly twitching cheek on the pope's face, he stepped forward. "This person is probably the one The man who murdered the Duke. "

The look on the pope's face was even darker, his eyes fixed on Alexander, and finally nodded slowly.

"Go do it, find the man, lift his mask and let me see his face," said Alexander VI, who stretched out his already shrivelled hand two steps forward and clutched the dress on Alexander's shoulder tightly. "Remember , He killed my son. "

Looking at the back of Alexander turning away, Alexander VI slowly looked back and sat back in his chair.

Alexander walked along the long corridor until he saw Caesar standing at the end of the corridor.

Even in such hot weather, Caesar still wore a long black coat.

Alexander walked to Caesar and stood, staring at him.

It seems that the surroundings have become a lot quieter. In fact, when we saw two people, many people who had been passing by had to find a place to hide, and the entire corridor became empty all at once.

"I heard you found the murderer?"

"No, just the suspect." Alexander shook his head slightly.

"Perhaps it was the murderer," Caesar lowered his voice. "If I were you, you would keep on tracing and find him to give that person to my father."

"Then let the real murderer escape the punishment it deserves?"

Alexander stared at Caesar's face, and no one knew whether Giovanni's death was Caesar's death. Whether it was in the future or now, this had become a mystery that seemed destined to be unsolvable.

"What do you want to do!" Caesar's tone became intense. He wanted to keep his voice down as much as possible, but he still groaned because of the excitement. "Do you want to frame me or want to blackmail me, then what do you want to say to my father?" , Did I kill Giovanni? Do you think my father would believe this lie, or do you think he allowed you to corrupt the reputation of his only son so casually? "

"You are not the only one, and Jeffrey." Alexander reminded.

"Jeffrey, do you actually think he can inherit everything from my father, or do you think he can benefit from him?" Caesar sneered. "No one has ever placed his hopes on him because it was like my father said. Yes, he is a fool and a coward. "

"But maybe he doesn't think so," Alexander gave a little sideways, and when he passed Caesar, his voice also sounded in Caesar's ear. "Maybe he can do something that surprised everyone. . "

Caesar's neck stiffened slightly, and he slowly turned to look at Alexander's back, and couldn't help but fall into contemplation.

Never seen a real mask man, Caesar, or Jeffrey, who was the murderer who really murdered Giovanni, or that they colluded with each other, or that the murderer was not them originally?

Alexander's mind was a bit chaotic. He knew what would happen to the situation with Giovanni's death, but how many people would be implicated in this change was not something he could say clearly.

In fact, Alexander VI did not give him more time.

July 25 is the anniversary of St. James.

As a martyr among the apostles, St. James is regarded as a model of self-contribution by **** Christ when he spread the sacrament in the world.

So every July, the city of Rome holds a grand ceremony.

Legend has it that St. Jacob's beheaded anvil has become an immortal sacred object preserved in the Vatican's underground warehouse filled with various precious sacred objects.

Starting from the first day of July each year, the chopping board stained with the blood stains of St. James will be mounted on a platform decorated with gold, silver and pine flower branches, carried by the priests from the Vatican, and then around the city of Rome for a week And back to the Vatican.

Then from this day until July 25, this one month will be the anniversary of St. James.

Sacrifice, dedication, and bravery.

Coincidentally, there was such an inscription on Caesar's sword.

Probably because of this, just half a month after Giovanni ’s death, on the first day of July, the Vatican suddenly issued a public statement in the name of the Bishops ’Conference.

Caesar Borgia is innocent, and any rumors about accusing and suggesting that he is related to the death of his brother Giovanni will be regarded as wanton defamation and persecution of an innocent person, and all will be subject to the most. Severe punishment.

When Alexander VI signed the statement, there were three people standing in front of him.

Caesar, Nomelo, and Alexander.

The Pope's face was somber. His hand paused at the end of the document before he signed the name. He watched the priest on the palm seal carefully cover the personal seal of the Pope's three crosses, Alexander VI's. His eyes slowly passed over the faces of several people in front of him.

Finally, his eyes stopped on Alexander.

"You promised that I would find the murderer," the pope said, and then he raised his hand to stop Alexander, who was about to speak. "But I have no time, I want this to end as soon as possible."

Alexander listened in silence, he knew what the Pope meant when there was no more time.

Giovanni's death did upset too many things, at least for Alexander VI, the opportunity that was originally given to him by the threat from Ottoman suddenly became slim because of the death of his son.

The brief Romagna War was the most obvious result of this opportunity. With the threat from the East, the Venetians had to withdraw from Romagna after signing an extremely harsh treaty.

This result obviously made Alexander VI taste the sweetness. Because of this, he immediately showed an unusually tough attitude towards the Ottoman Empire. At the same time, as the spiritual leader of the Christ World, he called on all the Christian nations to unite again to resist the heathen. Invasion.

All this seems to have been very smooth, even if it continues like this, even if it can no longer show the glory of Urban II, but because of the greater threat, the entire Christ world may still have to be Forced to stand under the banner of Alexander VI.

This made Alexander VI even thank the pagans sometimes because they brought him such a rare opportunity.

But suddenly, Giovanni died.

Subsequent rumors about the murderer not only cast doubt on Caesar and the entire Borgia family, but even Alexander VI himself was in trouble.

Who is the murderer or who is not the murderer is not important at this time. The Pope needs to get rid of the current predicament.

But first of all, he had to help his son wash away the dirt, even if the dirt was not clean at all.

"Don't forget your duty," Pope stopped him when Alexander was about to leave. "I still need you to find the murderer. Even as a father, I don't want my son to die in vain." "

Alexander nodded silently ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ He could perceive the loneliness and sorrow of the Pope at that moment, but he knew that this short-term weakness was only an illusion, and the person in front of him was always the Borgia known for conspiracy and cunning.

Giovanni's death was probably really as Alexander VI said, but "it needs a murderer".

When Alexander thought about returning to Marino Palace, he heard a rather unexpected news.

It was Uliu who asked for the news.

As Massimo said, the savvy Moors heard more from the servants who like to defame the short and the long all day, than people guessed.

This time, the news he heard was indeed unexpected by Alexander.

Giovanni's widow Maria de Luna is pregnant.

Being a young married woman is not new.

But think about Giovanni's body that had been completely destroyed by syphilis, so Alexander had to admit it.
