Conquer the Dawn of Heaven
Vol 6 Chapter 22: Self-launch
Caesar is back!
This was never thought of by Alexander.
This trip to Rome was not the result of a whim, but a deliberate decision made by Alexander.
So he thought of various possibilities, but the only thing he didn't think of was that Caesar would suddenly return to Rome.
It was previously reported that Caesar was accompanying his newlywed wife in France, because Louis XII could invade Italy at any time, so Caesar is unlikely to leave the newlywed wife at this time, but should enjoy this rare time more.
But Caesar came back suddenly, which not only completely exceeded Alexander's expectations, but also made him realize that because of this accident, not only himself, but also put his family in an unprecedented danger!
Looking at the father and son in front of him, Alexander quickly turned his thoughts. He knew whether he could leave Rome safely, and whether his family could be freed from possible imprisonment. It was up to him whether he could quickly find a chance to escape from the immediate crisis .
Calm down, Alexandria, you really have to calm down!
He kept reminding himself in the bottom of his heart, and at the same time quickly looked for the clues he might grasp from Caesar's look.
"You really should agree," Caesar said again. He placed his beautifully woven hat on the table and looked at Alexander. "Do you think I will forget the humiliation you had with me in Livorno and Pizza, Still think that I might lose courage completely because of those two failures? "
Caesar said with excitement flashing in his eyes, he stepped forward and closed his eyes firmly on Alexander's chest.
"You are wrong, do you know that those failures have stirred my fighting spirit more than ever, and I have been thinking about how to defeat you even in my dreams?"
Caesar's heavy breathing echoed in Alexander's ear, and he walked slowly around Alexander, with inexplicable excitement in his eyes.
"I can guess you must be thinking about how to escape now, but you can't jump anymore, although I am really eager to defeat you on the battlefield, but I will be more happy if I can solve your trouble in a simpler way, "
Caesar and Alexander stared at each other. He narrowed his eyes and carefully observed Alexander's look. After a while, he said in a regretful tone: "Do you know that we could really be a family, Giova? Ni Sforza is not worthy of Lucrezia, but you are different, but you have finally chosen to be the enemy of the Pogia family. "
"It's against you," Alexander said, and he couldn't keep his gaze in front of Caesar, looking at the memory in front of him that Machiavelli once called a face with charming eyes like an angel, and Alexander was slow but powerful. Say "I can because the Lucrezia Apogia family, as you said, we are a family, but you are my enemy, there will be no change," said Alexander, who took a step forward, in the ears of Caesar Bian whispered, "Because I know you have undesirable feelings for Lukrezija, this is something I can't tolerate."
Caesar's expression was stunned. He looked at Alexander in disbelief. He didn't know how Alexander knew the secret in his heart. To know that even Lucrezia should never realize that he hugged her. With that feeling.
Caesar quickly looked at Alexander VI not far away. He didn't want his father to hear what they said, because it might cause Alexander VI to be angry or worried.
"What are you talking about, you dared to put such a crime on me," Caesar said in a low voice and angrily, "You have finished Gombre, you cannot go out of Rome, and you will never see Lucrezia and Your daughter, I will make you regret for coming to Rome for a short time, and then you have to see God. "
Caesar spoke slowly back to the pope.
"You are living in the Portico Palace for now," Alexander VI said slowly, seeing Alexander's flashing eyes, the pope nodded a little helplessly and said, "I have to admit that I am really not too good for you Disposable heroes who resist pagans have almost completely ended the fate of the Ottoman Sultan. These are enough to put you on a protective armor. Probably you dare to come to Rome because of this. "
Looking at the disapproving look of Alexander VI, Alexander could not help but admit that the Pope was really guessing.
It was precisely because of his impressive record of resisting the Ottomans in the Balkans that Alexander thought that this trip to Rome might be a little troublesome, but there would be no danger, because neither Alexander VI nor anyone else would When the Ottomans were still under pressure, they openly attacked a hero who almost saved Europe.
But now, with the sudden appearance of Caesar, Alexander is not sure.
Alexander is certain that he has been put under house arrest.
Although there is no need to worry about life safety for the time being, as the Pope said, how to deal with him is a very troublesome thing, but listening to Alexander VI actually said this unabashed straightforwardness, Alexander knew this father and son The heart that wanted to put him to death should have been very determined.
After all, at this point, Alexander sighed helplessly in his heart.
His relationship with the Pogia family was so subtle that even he himself could not tell whether he was a loved one or an enemy, which Alexander had never thought of.
Perhaps at the moment when he robbed Lucrezia from the monastery, everything was in chaos. At that time, he never thought that he would be entangled with the women of the Pogia family, let alone Lucrezia. His beauty and charm will become a trap for him to fall into.
At least when they fled to Pisa to avoid the Venetians, both of them completely lost their lingering self, which he had never thought of before.
As for the pizza afterwards, and the dazzling changes that followed, Alexander could only lament the impermanence and life of the world.
But now he has pushed himself into danger because of this changeable world.
Caesar looked at the back of Alexander who was brought out by the two guards. A faint look flashed in his eyes. His hand was clenched around the waisted armored sword, and the corner of his mouth moved slightly. He seemed to be meditating.
"Is the French okay with you?" Alexander VI suddenly asked. For the Pope, Alexander's was no longer a problem, so he did not want to waste energy and time on that person. If there was nothing left to solve , That is, Lucrezia may be emotional because she cannot accept this fact, but she is a Borgia after all, and things will always pass.
Now it is the French who are really concerned about Alexander VI.
Although Louis XII showed unusual enthusiasm for Caesar, he even matched his marriage with his cousin, Charlotte, the sister of King John of Ravana, and specifically to express his respect to the young former Valen The respect of the Bishop of West Asia gave him the title of Duke of Valentino, but the Pope knew that this was nothing more than a favor for Louis XII.
What the French King really needs is recognition and support from the Vatican for his own marriage.
Louise was worried that there would once again be a character in France who was as bold as Charlie almost made France fall apart. If so, he would definitely not tolerate it.
What worries Louis is that Emperor Maximian married exactly the daughter of the bold Charlie, which gave Maximian enough reason to ask about French affairs.
So when Charles VIII died, Louis immediately decided not only to accept his throne, but even his wife, Brittany ’s heir, Anne, to ensure that Brittany would not be divided from the French territory. Go out.
All of this required the support of the Holy See, because before that Louis had to legally divorce his wife, the sister of Charles VIII, Jeanna, before she could marry Jeanna's sister-in-law as a wife.
All this requires the recognition of the Vatican, or Alexander VI.
Louis XII paid a high price for this. Not only did he give the Pope's son a very high courtesy, but more importantly, he promised to support Caesar's conquest of the Romagna region.
"The king is very kind to me, the key is that he is willing to give me more help than I thought." Caesar said with some excitement, he came back a little hastily, although he had reported some of his trip to France before Important thing, but a lot of detailed processes haven't had time to report yet "But I should go and see Lucrezia first now, I'm worried she might be a little excited about Gombré."
"Don't worry, it's important to tell me about your affairs in France in detail."
The Pope did not agree with Caesar's request. He motioned for his son to sit opposite and then began to listen carefully to Caesar's report to him in France.
Alexander's room under house arrest is not on the ground, but underground.
This is actually a basement at the end of a long underground tunnel. When he saw this corridor, Alexander could n’t help thinking about the rumor that the pope was between the Portico Palace and the Sistine Cathedral. There is a secret way to switch rumors between the pope and lovers at any time.
It also explains why Mrs. De Milla and Julia Farne live in the Potico Palace.
The room was not big and it was a little damp. It was originally not for occupants, but to prevent the Pope from visiting some guests who had not left yet, so let him wait for a while, but because of this, it was placed in the basement. Utensils for temporary use when needed.
For example, a very long-necked silver kettle that seemed to be placed on a wooden shelf in the corner. After seeing the silver kettle, Alexander was wondering if he could go far, he could at least use the kettle to make two or three deadly weapons.
There are also a few very delicate glass cups, which makes him think that it may be only necessary to tear off a few pieces of cloth on his body to make a simple dagger from the pieces of the cup.
It may be difficult to escape, but it is not completely impossible, especially in such a rush time when everyone is obviously unprepared.
Alexander had already guessed that Caesar would not be back for too long, because if that was the case, his whereabouts could not be left undisclosed, but unless it was Skop who would be too good at acting, otherwise he did not find anything strange along the way. He really knew Caesar. Not many people have returned to Rome.
This means that even if the Pope's father and son want to do harm to him, they cannot be prepared so well.
Alexander sat down slowly, looking at the dark and damp basement, he kept thinking about the exit under his heart.
Caesar's hostility towards him is unquestionable, and in fact, even if Caesar did not have an idea to fight him this time, the two of them could not be at peace.
The contradiction between them is too deep, whether it is the battle of Livorno or the setbacks in Pisa, it is impossible for Caesar to easily forget the humiliation that Alexander once gave him, but these are not the most important.
The key is that the two of them have too many overlapping conflicts of possession, such as Lucrezia, such as Romagna.
The French's appeal to Italy is not very greedy. Just like Charles VIII, Louis XII's plan for Italy was to occupy a few important cities and form a patriarchal rule over the entire Apennine Peninsula.
This is related to the fact that the French do not have the power to completely rule the entire Italy, and it is also inseparable from the reasons of other countries around. Whether it is Emperor Maximian or Ferdinand who loves Aragon, it will certainly not allow the French to annex the entire Apennine of.
So Caesar took advantage of this opportunity to use the power of the French to annex Romagna to become his best choice, but it just conflicted with the purpose of Alexander.
So, even though Caesar did not take the initiative to show Alexander his teeth this time, sooner or later they will become enemies.
It's just that Alexander didn't expect that the conflict came so quickly, and so suddenly.
As for Lucrezia and Estrez, Alexander was not so worried. He believed that the father and son would not harm their mother and daughter, just as they did not harm Lucrezia and Pedro Cardron in history. That **** is the same.
It's just that it's not auspicious to think so, after all, Pedro Cardron was killed by the father and son.
Now think about it, pit son-in-law really is the tradition of this family.
What worried Alexander was them.
Caesar should not have many followers back to Rome, otherwise it would be difficult for him to avoid other people ’s eyes and ears, and Alexander brought into Rome a 200-man guard, and these soldiers were not only well-equipped, but also battle-hardened Zhen has elite with rich experience.
What's more, it was O'Leary who led them.
Compared with other officers of Alexandria, Aufrei has no big features, and he can become the commander of the Montina army, and he is gradually becoming the temporary agent of Alexandria in the Montina army. The key is He is careful and cautious.
Although this trip to Rome seemed to be hasty, it was actually a very careful preparation before, and Ofrei was the commander of all this, but he didn't know where to go.
But because of this, for safety, Alfred has developed a rigorous plan as much as possible. Among them, there are various ideas on how to respond if an accident occurs.
Will Alexander VI openly send people to attack Ofrei? Alexander doubted this.
For the Pogia family who prefers to use Cantrera to its fullest, problems that can be solved with conspiracy are often not too direct or drastic.
In fact, from the time when the name of the Duke of Poison was gradually known, Caesar's army strength did not change much. It can be seen that although the Borgia family tried their best to try to fish in muddy water in the subsequent war, they were obviously Not all hopes are pinned on the battlefield.
For the Borgia family, Alexander VI's diplomatic methods often played a more important role.
Therefore, Aufrei did not have the opportunity to escape from possible traps.
Alexander was thinking about what might happen. He knew whether he could survive the immediate difficulty, and whether it would be possible for Olverei to smell the dangers and succeed in escaping.
O'Leary, can I pin my hopes on you?
Alexander asked secretly.
Ofrei was a little bit confused.
The commander of the Earl has always been to carry out the implementation carefully. The commander of the army is strictly performing his duties. He is staring at the soldiers who may seem to him to cause trouble at any time because of male instinct.
Especially for the Balkans who seemed to him not much stronger than a ruffian, Aufrei somewhat doubted that the count had no good intentions to bring those guys to Rome. He was just preparing for trouble.
Alexandria did not take O'Fole to the Portico Palace, and the Montina Guards were also arranged to rest temporarily on a hillside far away from the palace and the Vatican's Grand Place.
According to Alexander ’s plan, his place of stay in Rome would naturally be chosen at the Palace of Marino, so Aufrei first sent people to the Palace of Marino to prepare in advance, and then simply took two people to rush over because he was not at ease. Plan to make all arrangements before Alexander arrives.
Queen Joanna of Naples has moved away from the Palace of Marino. Her cousin and little aunt, the wife of the royal bear child Geoffrey, Sancia, found a good place for her in Rome.
The point is that it is said that the queen is now discussing marriage with Duke Li Mengqi of England. Obviously, Xia Sang suddenly cared about her for obvious reasons.
The Marino Palace is slightly different than before. The north and south wings of the palace are building two prismatic auxiliary buildings connected to the main building at the same time. The auxiliary building has a large area, and because it is prismatic, it has two sides from each side. The two ends are inclined toward the main building, and it looks like two wings spread back and forth to protect the Marino Palace.
These were all built by Ruosha when Alexandria was absent, and all this was presided over by the great Brahmont master who was well-recognized by Ruosha.
That's right, the first time Alexander saw him at the Palace of Marino ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ was irritated by his staring gaze at the architect who was about to beat him.
But the real reason for Alexander to hold back was actually the master's extraordinary skill in building military fortifications.
But now he is showing his expertise in the expansion of the Marino Palace, and it is at this time that Aufrei came to the Marino Palace.
Ofreiy personally toured the palace, and after making some other arrangements, he was ready to take people back to the Vatican's temporary camp, and then prepared to arrange the Montina Guard to the palace to start garrison.
Everything seemed calm until a messenger was instructed to meet Aufrei.
"I'm here to convey the order of Lord Earl," a servant wearing long black leggings handed a letter with Alexander's triangular coat of arms to O'Freil. "The Montina soldiers told me I need to find you. The earl ordered all his officers to come to the Portico Palace to wait for the order. "
Looking at the order in his hand carefully, the confirmed Aufrei issued the order with only a little contemplation:
"Tie him up."
