Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

From Rome to Pisa, this road is already familiar to Nomelo.

For Lucrezia, for Caesar, for the Pope, he traveled back and forth between the two cities, and every experience made him strangely surprised by the young man named Alexander Juliant Gumbre.

Nomelo was a little bit conflicted about going to Pisa. He did n’t think that he could complete the task arranged by the Pope so smoothly. Although Lukrezija took the initiative to write the letter, in Nomelo ’s view, the Pope was actually Only then agreed to the conditions of the Gombré.

Although the majesty of the Vatican is no longer as good as it used to be, but dare to blackmail the Pope so blatantly, Nomelo still has a little awe in the bottom of his heart.

Nomelo believed that the letter was given by Alexander, but this caused some curiosity.

Because if it is really what Lukreziya said, then Estrel is likely to compete with Valentí ’s children for Montina ’s sovereignty in the future, not to mention whether Estrez has this right, or Pakistan Whether Lundy could finally marry Alexander, it was just this arrangement that surprised Nomelo.

Because he can't imagine what kind of father, when his children were just born, he deliberately arranged for them hidden dangers that would cause huge contradictions in the future.

Although everyone knows that it is never uncommon to fight for inheritance rights, even recently, the Borgia family staged such a farce, but parents always expect that this will not happen in their families. However, Alexander ’s arrangement is puzzling.

Nomelo thinks that Alexander should have other plans, at least even if he really wants Estelles to inherit Montina in the future, he should have made other plans for Barrendi's children, or else this It ’s too unreasonable and weird.

So what is his purpose? Nomelo felt that he could grasp Alexandria's idea, otherwise he would rush to Pisa like this, always making him feel a little bit unsure.

But he is too familiar with this road after all, and it will be much smoother to walk, so he has arrived in a village not far from Montina before he can figure out the problem that has always troubled him.

Nomelo was also familiar with this village. He had been here when he led the army to Pisa to rescue Lucrezia, and he remembered seeing a Florentine here.

It was just that the rescue ended in embarrassment. What he saw was not the abduction of the pope ’s daughter, but a Lucrezia who looked purely like a lover ’s elopement. .

Nomelo reflected on the past while taking people into the village. He planned to take a rest here and take the road as soon as possible before the weather, so that he could get to Pisa before night.

Nomelo was walking on the dirt road full of sewage in the village, and then he saw a familiar figure approaching.

If it was somewhere else, perhaps he would not recognize this man who seemed to have encountered something difficult and looked sad.

But because it was in this village, and he happened to just recall the trip, he immediately recognized the Florentine who was wearing a slightly dirty robe and seemed to have traveled for a long time.

The name Nomelo no longer remembers, but he knows that this man seems to have served in Alexander's army later, which attracted his attention.

Machiavelli also saw Nomelo.

Unlike Nomelo, Machiavelli immediately recognized the pope's personal secretary.

Machiavelli greeted him with just a moment of surprise. For a person who is keen on utilitarianism, what is more worth expecting than becoming an acquaintance with the Pope's cronies.

Machiavelli first respectfully saluted Nomelo, and then officially reported his current position and identity.

"Administrators and diplomats in the Florence Administration Office?"

Nomelo looked at Machiavelli somewhat unexpectedly. He was not surprised that this person would serve in Florence, but as far as he remembered, this person once served in Florence, where Savonarola was in power.

Now it seems that this person has not been implicated by Savonarola, but on the contrary it seems to have been promoted, which makes Nomelo look at Machiavelli a little differently.

"It should be said that all this should thank Earl Montina."

Machiavelli was keenly aware of the key to Nomelo's presence here. If it was not to go to Florence to see Alexander, how could the pope's personal secretary suddenly ran to this poor rural village.

And Machiavelli also believed that he was right, everything he does today can be said to be given by Alexander, but the real reason is not enough for outsiders.

"Obviously I am probably the Florentine who is most closely related to Pisa today," Machiavelli said deliberately in a self-deprecating tone. "The Florentine masters think that at least I can talk to Pisa officials, so just Send me to complete various diplomatic missions, but this time I probably returned empty-handed. "

"Oh, why?" Nomelo asked, not purely curious, but wanted to know more about the situation between the two cities.

"The reason is that I was a prisoner of the Genoese before. After finally being released, I didn't know that Tomno of Pisa was dead."

Machiavelli said that he couldn't help showing a frustrated look. He did feel that the mission was too bad. Not only did he become a captive and ran around the Tuscan land with the Genoese, he had been The tremendous credit for secretly smearing Pisa for the crisis has suddenly become worthless with the death of Tomnio.

To make matters worse, the Venetians he had originally hoped to use to intimidate Calgino actually actually took action on Pisa. This made the words not only useless, but if they were said carefully, they might still be suspected as It was procrastinating for the Venetian kidnapping Tomno.

The Florentine, who felt unusually sullen, had to stay in this village for a while. He needed to think about how to distinguish his actions from the count.

You know, even if he does n’t say it himself, who can guarantee that the count will not know that Machiavelli was in Calgino ’s army when he and the Genoese were fighting hard?

If it's really time to explain, then everything will be too late.

Originally because of this sad face now seeing Nomelo, Machiavelli's heart suddenly warmed up.

The status of the Pope ’s personal secretary is enough to give him a certain sense of security. At least he knows the strange relationship between Alexander and the Borgia family. If he can get the help of the Pope ’s cronies, it ’s not enough for him. Benefits.

"Please forgive me that there are some things that I cannot tell you," Machiavelli first shunned a little, and then thought about it or continued to speak. "You probably already know about the contradiction between Pisa and Venetian fever. In this matter, I think I can still provide some reliable information. "

Nomelo slightly, he knows that no one will provide news for no reason, then the next thing to see is whether the news is worth paying some compensation.

"What do you hope for?" Simple and direct, Nomelo didn't want to spend time on these little things.

"An opportunity for me to meet the count alone, I know that the relationship with the count should allow him to agree to this matter."

"Are you talking about meeting at the Lucrezia Palace?"

Nomelo was keenly aware of the meaning in the Florentine dialect.

If it is only in the Ducal Palace, this requirement becomes less necessary.

"Yes, I think the Earl may have a little misunderstanding, which may affect the relationship between Pisa and Florence, so I hope to get the Earl's separate summons."

Machiavelli's alert did not mention the relationship with him. Although he knew that this might cause Nomelo's suspicion, he was not worried.

After all, he is a diplomat in Florence, and asking for a secret meeting with Alexander will not cause much trouble.

Sure enough, Nomelo agreed to this request with only a little deep thought. He could see that Machiavelli's words were not untrue, but he now wanted to know more about the news of Florence, even if the news was not true, but he also I hope to ask more.

"What I want to tell you is that Archer Sazi has secretly met with the Venetians," Machiavelli decided to reveal something more important after seeing Nomelo seemingly not paying much attention to the news. "They are not just for Florence provided help in hijacking Tomnio, and as far as I know, the Venetian is ready to provide Florence with a considerable amount of loans. "

Nomello, who seemed to be careless, finally responded. He glanced at Machiavelli and asked casually in a seemingly indifferent tone: "Can you talk about the number and specifics of this loan?"

"What conditions the governor promised is still unknown, and they were negotiating when I left Florence, but I believe there should be results now."

Nomello nodded at Machiavelli's judgment.

If there is no result, the Venetians will not venture into Pisa to hijack unlucky Tomnio.

"But I know it should be a huge sum of 200,000 florins."

Machiavelli's words finally moved Nomelo. The Pope's secretary turned to look at the Florentines seriously, then nodded slowly and said, "I will arrange for you to meet with the Earl separately, as to whether he will be in Lukrezija See you at the palace, it's up to the earl to decide. "

Machiavelli exhaled secretly, knowing that the difficulty in front of him was finally hopeful.

Nomelo did not stay any longer. After hearing the news provided by Machiavelli, he felt the need to rush to Florence immediately, because he would return to Rome as soon as possible and report the news to the Pope.

The currency issued by the Vatican has begun to circulate. Through its influence on Florence, this kind of gold coin called Piset has attracted the attention of many people as soon as it appeared with a beautiful cast pattern. Some people even get these. After the gold coins were collected immediately, they refused to be used easily.

This phenomenon was obviously undesirable to the Pope. In order to prevent this payment, Alexander VI even ordered to reduce the casting process, hoping to reduce the craftsmanship to make people lose their interest in collecting and invest gold coins market.

In any case, Alexander VI devotes his energy to this secular work with a more enthusiastic attitude than any of his predecessors, which inevitably caused some criticism.

Some people have publicly criticized the Pope for being too keen to accumulate wealth, and have completely degenerated into a worldly businessman. Some even directly denounced this behavior as worse than his predecessor's priesthood.

But Alexander VI completely ignored all these accusations. Nomelo, one of the insiders, clearly knew that Alexander VI was so passionate about this cause because of the exchange's formidable ability to make money. The Pope is enjoying the huge benefits of the daily advance.

Florence is obviously a fat piece in the eyes of Alexander VI. The fall of Savonarola allowed him to extend his tentacles into this long-lost city. At the same time, because of years of grudges with Florence, he did not have any burden. Tried to extract wealth from this city.

The issuance of currency in Florence was an agreement with the Florentine government. For this reason, Alexander VI even spared no effort to borrow the name of the family that supported the Medici, and pressured the Sergeant Sazzi of Florence.

Although this kind of pressure is effective, it obviously also destroys the opportunity for the Pope and Florence to renew their relationship.

Nomelo could imagine that Alexander VI paid such a big price, if the destruction of Venice, how angry the Pope would be.

Nomelo decided to leave for Pisa immediately. He would see Alexander as soon as possible and then rush back to Rome to report the news that Machiavelli revealed to him to the pope.

Nomelo finally arrived in Pisa when it was dark.

He had planned to go to the Duke's Palace to ask for an audience, but only after Machiavelli's inquisition did he know that the count, and of course the Miss Duke and her mother, were not in the Duke's Palace but in the Lukrecia Palace.

So Nomelo immediately turned to the Lukrekiya Palace by the river.

Just now, not far from Lukrecia ’s house, Nomelo saw a few workers who were busy hanging a huge badge on the arched porch at the entrance of the yard.

Nomelo took a closer look at the badge, and he noticed that the shading of the badge was a traditional red cross on a white background.

It is only slightly different from the pizza badge. It is in the upper right corner of the right cross, with a rather striking star.

The star is surrounded by bright rays foreshadowed by Dao lines, and several of them directly hit the center of the Pisa cross.

Looking at the badge, Nomelo couldn't help thinking of the origin of Estelles' name.

Morning Star, breaking the stars that bring darkness to the dawn, this is the meaning of Alexander's name. Now it seems that he wants to make this name with far-reaching significance clearly imprinted in the history of Pisa.

Nomelo's arrival obviously made Lucrezia very happy.

Although he had been hoping to get his father's reply as soon as possible after sending the letter, Lucrezia did not expect that Alexander VI would reply so quickly, and Nomelo was also sent.

Lucrezia is certainly clear about Nomelo's identity. Sometimes she even feels that her father trusts Nomelo more than her brothers.

This also made Lucrezia guess whether Nomelo would be another unknown illegitimate child of his father.

It's just that this guess has never been confirmed, and Lucrezia gradually feels that his father's trust in Nomelo is somewhat different from his own siblings.

Seeing Lucrezia, Nomelo smiled. Although it was not long before the last visit to Pizza, Nomelo still discovered some subtle changes in Lucrezia's body.

She seemed to be more stable, or that she seemed more dependent on Alexander. When she walked beside Alexander, she was no longer as a lively deer as before, but more like a competent wife.

Or a mistress?

Nomelo had just heard this strange thought in his heart, and he was immediately suppressed by him.

"Nomelo, welcome to you," Alexander stopped in front of Nomelo and looked at the Pope's personal secretary. "If I guessed right, you should have set off last night, right?"

"How did you find out?" Nomelo asked slightly surprised.

"It's not strange because I noticed the mud stains on your robe. I know it rained near Rome last night. Obviously you left the city before evening, otherwise you should be able to find shelter Local. "

Alexander smiled casually. He noticed the unnatural appearance on Nomelo's face, but he didn't mind what he thought of.

Although it may seem only slightly surprising, the vibration inside Nomelo is indescribable!

He didn't think that Alexander actually knew everything about Rome. He even knew it was raining the night before.

This made Nomelo feel a little uneasy in addition to the accident. He even secretly wondered whether he should report the matter to the pope after going back.

"Nomelo, what good news have you brought us?" Lucrezia asked anxiously. She was nervous and a little uneasy in her expression. When she looked at Nomelo, her eyes revealed Seems to be anxious waiting for the verdict.

Nomelo was able to understand the reason why Lukrezija looked like this. After all, this was the first time in 18 years that she was so desperate to confront her father. Nomelo even remembered the obvious threats revealed in the letter. .

"You might think that the pope is a little disappointed with you, little Lucrezia," Nomelo shook his head slightly, seeing Lucrezia's originally excited expression dim instantly, the secretary could not help but look with a slightly reproachful look To Alexander "You shouldn't do this, you shouldn't let her oppose her father."

"We didn't object to my father," Lukreziya retorted immediately with dissatisfaction. "I just want to fight for my daughter's rights."

Lukrekija's words made Nomelo wryly smile, and he had to look at Alexander next to him with a look of admiration.

"Lucrecia, what you said about the rights of the daughter is actually to threaten your father." Nomelo said in a low voice.

He looked at Alexander again, and when he saw Alexander making an invitation to him, Nomelo nodded.

Many things must be made clear, or that with the change of status, the relationship between people is not the same as before.

In the past, Alexander was just a chess piece that he could play with casually, and both the chess player and the chess piece knew this.

And now ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ At least Nomelo has noticed changes in the relationship between the two parties.

The relationship between chess players and pieces is no longer between them, and of course not the elders and son-in-law.

From time to time co-operate and sometimes contend, the relationship between the two Alexander looks complicated.

Coromello knew that the Gombre in front of him was now a character who could resist the Pope in court.

"Your Majesty asked me to bring Miss Estelles the holy bone of St. Aden of Pisa," Nomelo said to Lucrezia, who smiled happily, and then he looked at Alexander. A personal promise from Your Majesty that any attempt by Venice to Pisa cannot be tolerated. "

Hearing Nomelo's words, Alexander smiled.

All this has been waiting for him.

"In this case, I am about to have a message asking you to bring your Majesty the Pope back," Alexander said. "The news I just received, Ottoman Sultan Bayesert II, is about to enter Bucharest."
