Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

De Charlene's eyes behind the mask looked at the priest's face for a long time, and everyone held their breath and waited for his reaction.

Faced with the tall black knight, the priest did not have any fear, and he did not give in.

There have been monarchs strong enough to do whatever they want even in the face of the pope in history, but Henri de Charlene clearly cannot be compared with those who dare to defy theocracy.

After a long silence, the knight finally slowly lowered his high head.

The French stepped back slightly to the next step. Then he bowed his head with his sword in hand and saluted. As the armor shook, De Charlene turned and walked past the soldier beside him to the step .

But when he rode the horse and looked back at the priest who was still standing on the steps of the Marino Palace, De Charlene raised his hand and made a strange gesture.

His hands were raised flat, a stroke from right to left, and then he slowly turned the horse away.

Watching him fade away into a dark back that merged with the dark night, the priest moved his neck for no reason. The movement before De Charlene left him always felt uncomfortable.

Joanna had already basically cleared up the embarrassment of her body and stood at the entrance of Marino Palace. When she saw the priest approaching the gate, she immediately came out of the gate and nodded slightly to the priest.

"Your Majesty, I am instructed to convey to you the concern of His Majesty the Pope, and the Cardinal has already reported your wish to see your Majesty. Your Pope hopes that you will visit the Vatican Palace at noon tomorrow.

Joanna's face was rejoicing, and she didn't expect to be summoned by the Pope so quickly, although she paid a large sum of money when visiting Cardinal Monteiro, hoping to get a recommendation from the Cardinal to see the Pope, But I received a response so quickly, but I never thought of it.

But when she remembered the empty boxes in the bedroom upstairs, the joy immediately turned into a pot of cold water that made her cold.

The greed of Alexander VI is almost a well-known thing, and the Borgias in his family who depend on him and rely on the power of the pope to do everything they can to accumulate wealth are more like greedy evils. Ghost, but now Joanna suffered such a huge loss, which made Queen Naples suddenly feel so bad after she had dealt with the priest, so that when she remembered the maid who locked her out of the bedroom Later, because of his anger, he immediately ordered the maid to be escorted to herself, and then she extended her hand and slapped the woman **** the face.

"Give her to the French," Joanna looked at the maid with doubts when she heard the words. "Tell them that this woman colluded with the gangsters to try to murder me," she said, grabbing the maid's collar and gritting her teeth. Do n’t people want to catch rebels in the city, I want to see how they treat you, you bitch. "

Joanna's words The maid only wanted to understand what was about to happen.

Regardless of his attitude towards Joanna, the French against brutal gangsters in the city are cruel. If they are handed over to the French in the name of the same party, it is definitely the most brutal good luck waiting for her.

The maid yelled in horror. She struggled and even rolled on the ground, and tried to hug Joanna's legs to beg for her, but these were useless. When she finally knew that she was not spared, she dragged and cursed loudly. But all it got was an elbow hammer that knocked her out.

"Let me be quiet," Joanna held her head and turned around. When she saw Nashan, she suddenly seemed to have some ideas, and immediately ran towards the Gypsies, holding Nashan's arm tightly. Say "Help me, you must help me."

"You have anything to help but tell me," Nashan twisted a slightly upturned Hu Jian. "You know I have always been a friend of noble ladies. No, I mean I have always been willing to help others. "

"Help me find the gangsters who escaped and the jewels robbed by them. I swear I will thank you well," Joanna said anxiously. "I know you can do it. I see your skill, You must have a way, right? "

"Oh, what about this," Nashan froze, looking up at Alexander, who could not see here, and raised a finger to stop Joanna's pleading. "Please wait a moment, I have to Others discuss it, you know I am not the boss. "

"Then discuss it quickly. I know that Gombre is greedy and tell him that I will pay him a large fee, as long as he can help me find those lost things."

Joanna, watching Nashan walk towards Alexander, her hands folded slightly to make a begging look.

"So you are going to speak for her now?" Alexander looked at Nashan coming and asked interestingly. "I really didn't expect Sophia's father to be like you. This is not what Sophia said."

"You are not qualified to evaluate me, young man. You know that I am a man, and I am very loyal to Sophia's mother," the Gypsy whispered, then lowered his voice and asked, "What are you going to do with all that money? Although it is a little trouble to make a fortune, if you can't take it away as soon as possible, it will be discovered soon. "

"It's a little trouble," Alexander said with a smile to Joanna in the distance and said, "Carlo took a few people to hide those things not far from the Marino Palace, but I thought maybe I should help you in Earn a good reputation before the king. "

"What are you going to do, return the money to this woman?" Nashan asked unexpectedly. "I have nothing to do with her, and you don't see how she treats that maid? This woman is actually very cruel."

"I mean, I need her to see the pope," Alexander shook her head. "She got so much attention as soon as she entered the city, and even the pope was about to summon her so quickly. You think even a queen. Want to be so fast Is it so easy to see the pope? "

"I don't know what you are going to do, but don't do it in my name," Nashan squinted at Alexander. "Okay, what do you do?"

"The money is obviously for her to bribe others, and of course we can't give it back to her, but we can pay back part of her so that she can do more in Rome," Alexander said with a smile to Nashan who was slightly dissatisfied. Rest assured, only Joanna ’s life in Rome will be better, and you ’ve been encouraging me to come to Rome before. Now that we ’re here now, do n’t worry, maybe we will get it back soon More stuff. "

Seemingly moved by Alexander, as if it didn't matter at first, Nashan waved his hand and walked towards Joanna.

Alexander ignored the two men. He stepped on the floor and walked around the palace. When he saw Carlo reappearing and nodded slightly to him, he beckoned to Carlo.

"Do you think there is an internal response around the queen?" Alexander asked in a low voice.

"Yes," Carlo. "When we followed the robbers through the wicket, we saw that the lock of the wicket was not broken, but that it had been opened from the inside. And when we rushed into the queen's bedroom, we also I was seeing two people robbing the money in those cabinets, and the maid stood aside. "

"What?" Alexander opened his mouth in surprise. He didn't expect Joanna to blame the maid in order to vent her indignation. She actually told her the truth. "Jona Anna made the maid sent to France just now." People go. "

"Do you want to save her?" Carlo asked strangely.

"I want to know who wants to do these things."

Despite getting a lot of wealth, and knowing that it had nothing to do with him, Alexander did not like the feeling of being stared at in secret.

In addition, the appearance of the French just made Alexander realize that although he entered the city of Rome, if he wanted to stay and do something without being easily doubted, Joanna's shield was still indispensable.

In this way, Joanna's business became his business.

"Go tell that Romeo and stop him from bonding with the Queen of Naples. There is something to do now."

Alexander shook his head slightly. He felt that Ferdinand, who was a little dead, was worthless. Think about how long it took before, would Ferdinand's coffin board become green?

Although he didn't know who Romeo Alexander was talking about, Carlo still knew he was calling Nashan. After calling the gypsy who had been given high hopes by the queen, Alexander immediately took two people out of the Palace of Marino.

At this time, it was already dark at night, because there had just been a fight, and the houses on both sides of the street were painted black. Obviously, even the Romans, who had been accustomed to conspiracy and unrest, were still scared by what happened outside.

"Have the money been hidden?" Alexander whispered to Carlo.

"Yes, it's really a lot of money." Carlo's voice was a little trembling. Although he didn't know how much the money was, he only had enough weight to make his heartbeat increase. A big bag of Durant, I haven't seen it even one-tenth in my life. "

"Durant?" Alexander took the next meal, he hadn't had time to see the money. "Not Florin?"

"It's Durant, it's all gold coins." Carlo nodded his head firmly.

Where did Joanna get so many Durant?

Alexander groaned a little, then gently "ah".

The figure of a lowlander flashed inexplicably from his mind, but for a moment he couldn't understand if Joanna's money was really given by that Groningen, then why did that person make such a large capital.

More importantly, Alexander did not know why Groningen also invested a lot of money in him.

But these thoughts just disappeared with a slight flicker, at least for now, it has nothing to do with the lowlander.

"Take part of the money and give it back to the queen," seeing Carlo's face collapse, Alexander patted his cavalry captain's shoulder. "Relax, we will get more in the future than now. Remember to leave When I was in Gerry, I promised that each of you could go home with an unprecedented amount of loot. At that time, you thought it was incredible, but now this promise has actually been fulfilled, but will you leave in contentment?

Carlo opened his mouth, and for a while he really wanted to say "I want to go home", but somehow he couldn't say it.

"Since you want to get more, follow me," Alexander seemed to know that it would be the result, and he walked forward alone. "As I said, one day you will get more unimaginable than these. s things."

When Joanna got a large bag of gold coins stained with black and red blood stains, the Queen of Naples was so excited that she covered her mouth and sobbed slightly.

Although she immediately screamed because she saw **** in the purse that seemed to have been cut and fell during the fight, this did not affect the queen's inexplicable good mood because of excitement.

This good mood even made her ask Alexander to continue to protect her. As for when it ended, the queen did not propose a specific time.

"Maybe when she gets bored with the Bohemian," Carlo said quipped secretly. "I think King Ferdinand is going to die."

Alexander thought deeply about Carlo's words, but the thought of being able to accompany Joanna to the Vatican Palace the next day, he admired his father-in-law's "skills".

The Vatican is located in the northwest corner of the Roman city. Although it is surrounded by the famous Roman walls, when the Tiber River divides the Vatican from the main Roman city on the east bank of the river ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ still makes people feel that there are If there is no difference.

Rome belongs to the pope, but the pope does not belong to Rome.

From Marino Palace in the southeast of Rome to the Vatican, it is necessary to pass almost the entire city of Rome.

When the team walks on the sometimes wide and sometimes narrow streets, it is often difficult for people to ignore the remnants of ancient Rome that can be seen vaguely between the gap between the church and the low house.

The mottled but still magnificent ancient Roman Colosseum, the monument to the Emperor Trajan who was installed with a huge cross, and when passing through a narrow and cluttered market, the street in front of me suddenly became spacious and easy to walk. Surrounded by the steps of the circle, the Palazzo Vecchio is surrounded by numerous marble statues.

Even Joanna, who had been to Rome many times, still couldn't help but reveal the look she had forgotten when she saw these again.

And from the side of the veteran palace to the scarcity of Western architecture, a burst of cold wind was blowing head-on.

Alexander took the horse, and he straightened up slightly, looking over from the gap slightly downwards, and vaguely saw the sparkling.

"It's still far away," Joanna seems to be in a much better mood, so that the look in Alexander's eyes is not so mean. Seeing Alexander's expression, she even took the initiative to say "It's a long way to go." Will go to the river. "

"Your Majesty," Alexander smiled slightly, and then looked forward again, "I know the way." 898)
