In fact, under normal circumstances, Marin does not need to silence. Even if they robbed a little more wealth, it would not be necessary to block the news. The main reason is that this time Marin helped the Holy See attack Siena, not for money at all, but to accumulate credit for the Holy See, and then seek authorization from the Holy See to reward colonization of America.

Therefore, this time not only must help the Holy See win Siena, but the impact must be positive. If the reputation of the stolen money is too much and the envy of the countries is aroused, and the Holy See rewards the colonial rights of the Americas, other countries will not accept it.

But the money robbed this time was too much, and Marin was really unwilling to return it. But if it is not returned, it will definitely be hated by the whole of Europe. Therefore, Marin decided to block the news. And the best way to block the news is to let the insider die.

However, as several days passed, the spies under Marin did not sell a short sword that "assassinated Caesar the Great". It's right to think about it, these old men who are the heads of the family are all good people, how could they take risks so easily?

Therefore, Marin changed his strategy - he no longer invited those old owners, but invited their sons to the banquet. Young people are very angry and are more likely to take the bait.

In order to further stimulate the heirs of these patriarchs, Marin deliberately sent his soldiers, disguised as undisciplined rebels, to catch these family heirs taking the opportunity to go out with their wives, and molesting their wives in front of the young family heirs. Some wretched ones even tore off the other wife’s clothes in public, groping with their hands, and many people groped together... After touching, these "chaotic soldiers" would praise Marin in Italian, obviously for Marin's "pull" hatred", to lure this group of stunned youths into anger...

Of course, these are all done to avoid those cunning old men. If you do this in front of those old men, you may be seen through. Once the other party bears it down, there is nothing wrong with it.

Sure enough, the heirs of two families were so stimulated by the behavior of the "chaotic soldiers" that they lost their minds and quietly bought the short sword "the same style as the one that assassinated Caesar".

What the two heirs didn't know was that after they bought the dagger "the same style as the assassination of Caesar", the peddler who sold them the dagger hurriedly closed the stall and went back to report the news.

And after Marin learned that two people had bought the dagger "the same style as the assassination of Caesar", he also knew that the opportunity had come. Then, new invitations were sent out...

...

A few days later, many tables were set up in front of the city hall of the city square, which looked like running water seats. On the square, Marin sent people to set up a cordon to prevent civilians from approaching. However, Marin did not block the main road, and many civilians could still see the entrance of the city hall from a certain distance.

certainly,

No one will be greedy for the feast. Because, when Marin captured the city of Siena this time, only his soldiers ransacked the big households in the city. Moreover, they only rob money, not food. Therefore, none of the people in the city went hungry. But for this kind of noble banquet held in the open air, the people in the city are still very interested, and many people come to watch from afar.

Marin put on a rhinoceros leather vest and a silk robe over it. In addition, a dagger is hidden in the waist of the rhinoceros vest to deal with unexpected situations. He knew how Caesar died. Caesar was stabbed to death by a group of elders of the Senate because he did not carry a weapon and had no ability to fight back. If they brought weapons, how could those elders of the Senate succeed? Huh... that's not right, Caesar seemed to be 58 years old at the time, and he was considered an uncle... It turned out that a group of chickens were pecking at each other...

...

Near noon, more than a dozen young family heirs finally arrived one after another. At the entrance of the square, they untied their swords one after another and handed them over to the soldiers for safekeeping.

At this time, Alessandro and Crisetti, who had long been targeted by Marin's spies, who had privately purchased the short sword "assassinated with the same style as Caesar", looked very nervous, for fear that the soldiers would search their bodies. Because, in the boots of both of them, they both hid the short sword "the same style as the assassination of Julius Caesar".

However, to their surprise, the guards did not search them carefully, but let them go after touching their waists, which greatly relieved the two. In fact, what the two didn't notice was that even if they hid daggers in their leather boots, it was hinted by the spies sent by Marin. Because, when buying the dagger of the "assassination of Julius Caesar", the spy who sold them the dagger demonstrated the method of hiding the dagger in leather boots. But today, they really relied on this trick to successfully "get away with it".

But what the two of them didn't know was that when they entered the banquet area, someone quietly pointed them out to Marin. And Marin, from time to time, glanced at the two of them inadvertently, and quietly raised his vigilance...

The reason why Marin wanted to guard against the two was that they were afraid that their hands would wipe their necks. After all, he wore rhinoceros leather armor on his upper body, but his neck was not protected. Therefore, he needs to guard against two people attacking his neck and head.

...

Soon, the banquet finally started. Marin raised his wine glass, filled it with the "royal salute", chatted affectionately with the dozen or so young family heirs, and clinked glasses with each other from time to time, the atmosphere of the scene was extremely harmonious...

While drinking, Marin seemed a little drunk and blurred...

In fact, he deliberately pretended to be a little drunk. why? Otherwise, the opponent might not dare to do it!

Marin is a genuine German knight. Although his personal martial arts are average, they are not comparable to the dudes of the dozen or so business families present.

Although Siena was also an important state of the Holy Roman Empire back then, many families were enshrined as nobles. For example, among the dozen or so families, seven or eight were baron families who had been conferred by the emperor in their early years. The other few families are noble families that were conferred internally after the independence of the Republic of Siena (there were also noble families in the Italian republic in the Middle Ages. Some are old-fashioned nobles, and some noble identities were acquired after they made a fortune).

But in any case, because these dozen or so families are very rich, they have basically acquired the status of hereditary nobles. Therefore, Marin could not kill their family casually. As a civilian merchant family, Marin had already started...

Seeing that Marin was a little wobbly, Alessandro and Crisetti looked at each other quietly, then nodded to hint at each other...

Afterwards, Marin noticed from the corner of his eye—the two were quietly approaching him...

At this time, a short family heir named Mineiro suddenly came over to toast. While clinking glasses with each other, Marin absently watched the direction of Alessandro and Crisetti.

Mineiro is a small, smiling man, heir to the Pallotto family. He is short in stature, only about 1.6 meters, and looks very ordinary. Moreover, this product looks limp, not masculine at all. However, it is said that he married a beautiful wife named Juliet. The fame of his wife spread throughout Siena. Of course, Marin paid so much attention to his wife, mainly because his wife's name is too famous - the same name of the heroine of the world famous play "Romeo and Juliet"...

After toasting, Mineiro walked towards behind Marin. And Alessandro and Crisetti also held their glasses and came to Marin with fake smiles on their faces...

"Dear Duke Marin, my name is Alessandro, the heir of the Moria family. I have heard of your reputation, and I am very adoptive mother. Therefore, I am here to express my respect to you!" After finishing speaking, he Respectfully offer the wine glass...

And Marin was also very face-saving, touched the wine glass with him lightly with a smile on his face, and then began to take a sip with his head up...

When they were clinking glasses, Crissetti next to Alessandro seemed to have dropped something on the ground, so he switched the glass to his left hand, while his right hand bent down, as if picking up something...

However, when Marin started drinking with his head up, Crissetti suddenly pulled out a dagger from his leather boots and stabbed Marin's heart...

And Alessandro, who was still gesticulating to drink just now, also threw away his wine glass, bent down and pulled out a short sword from his leather boots, and joined the ranks of assassins...
