, Update the latest chapter of the dawn of conquering heaven as soon as possible!

In the main court of the Carolingian palace, two young nobles confronted each other.

The same young, the same strong, the same outstanding family background, and the same eye-catching, these are two planets that are destined to collide if they are in the same orbit.

Seeing Caesar Borgia, Constantine de la Rovere's face was proud.

The people of the Roverei family looked down on Borgia. For foreigners from Valencia, few people had a good impression of them, and this infamous reputation has already become a joke in the Vatican. Many people in the Holy See even I feel ashamed to mention this family name.

"Hopefully I haven't disturbed your conversation." Caesar's smile was on his face. Although he was wearing the cardinal's robe, his behavior was full of directness and heroism as a warrior. At this moment, Alexander's mind could not help flashing Da Vinci's description of this person, "elegant manner and angelic charming eyes".

Caesar's appearance used to confuse many people. Before he was called that terrible nickname, he was even considered to be the most flattering one of the Borgia family, if not because of his relationship with his sister Lucrezia. That ridiculous rumors, there may be more people like him.

"In fact you did disturb us," Constantine was not distracted by Caesar's seemingly polite behavior. He even intentionally revealed a hostile tone when he spoke. "But if you can kindly release Queen Naples , I still think you can have this kind of virtue. "

Caesar's smiling expression slowly turned away. He looked at Constantine's face for a while, then suddenly turned his head and said to Alexander: "I came here specifically to invite you. I know that you are very concerned about the status of the queen. So I invite you to Portico Palace so that you can greet the queen personally. "

After that, Caesar turned to Constantine and said, "Please forgive me for not inviting you to my sister's palace. After all, this seems a bit inappropriate."

A trace of blush and anger flashed on Constantine's face, and he even heard someone nearby chuckle softly.

The Rovere family tried to propose to Lucrezia for Constantine a few years ago. This was regarded as a signal of goodwill released by the Rovere family to the Borgia family. This incident once caused a sensation in Rome, because it meant that once this The marriage was successful, and the alliance of two powerful families would completely control the entire city of Rome.

But in the end, Alexander VI, who was still a cardinal, categorically rejected the proposal of marriage that almost everyone thought was a combination of both interests. Even it was said that Alexander VI said in a very disdainful tone at the time, "This is the worst proposal, I do n’t Maybe give your daughter to someone destined for nothing. "

This ruthless rejection and humiliating evaluation made Constantine once a joke among the young people in Rome, so that when Caesar was raised in the past few years, the Carolingian Palace still People think of it.

Constantine stared angrily at Caesar, his right hand stretched out in front of him to grab the hilt. This action shocked the entourages who followed them. Some of them learned that their masters were ready to draw their swords, and some celebrities hurriedly. Block Constantine and Caesar who were also touching the hilt to prepare to start.

"Two adults, I don't think a duel is a good idea," Alexander stood between the two confronting each other. "Because you mentioned the Queen of Naples before, so I don't want anyone to misunderstand your conflict involving the Queen's reputation, after all, she is still During the funeral. "

Alexander's words made both sides of the confrontation slightly stagnate. After glancing at Alexander, the two men slowly withdrew the staggered posture. ,

In fact, for them, this seemingly immediate conflict is nothing more than a gesture. They will neither really get white knives in and out red knives for this matter, nor will they say, as Alexander said. To make an essay on the topic of Joanna, after all, it is rumored that this kind of thing is enough to spread things beyond recognition.

Constantine may not care, or may hope that as many rumors as possible are better, but Caesar will not do so, because it may make his brother Giovanni suspicious.

Constantine finally chose to leave, but before leaving, he repeatedly told Alexander that after seeing Joanna, he must express his concern for the queen and his worries about the situation. He even picked a huge emerald from his fingers. The ring was given to Alexander, and he was asked to hand it over to the queen.

Caesar's passion for the young knight had no sarcasm, but when he walked out of the Carolingian palace, he showed a sarcastic smile in the direction of Constantine's disappearance.

Alexander left the Carolingian Palace after Nathan came to pick Sophia. He rejected Sophia ’s move to quietly throw the crossbow to him when he hugged him slightly, because he felt that the hidden weapon obviously could not hide Caesar The **** guards around me, once discovered, have another branch, and look at the people around Caesar. There should be no assassins who will be bold enough to take risks, so following Caesar is much safer.

It ’s not far from the Carolingian Palace to the Portico Palace, after all, it is said that Alexander VI repaired a secret tunnel from the Vatican Palace where he lived to the Portico Palace in order to be able to see his beloved daughter at any time. You can walk into Lucrezia's gang at any time to visit her beautiful daughter.

Although there are many rumors about such obvious defamation and metaphor, it can be seen that Alexander VI really loved Lucrezia, so when crossing a narrow street on the side of the Carolingian Palace, along the Vatican When the outside of Yau came to a palace that looked full of Romanesque style, looking at this pale white marble building, Alexander couldn't help but secretly envy the Pope's love for his daughter.

Unlike other palaces, the Portico Palace is a one-storey Roman-style building. The entire palace is presented in an almost completely retro manner. The iconic polygonal Roman column, the curled door lintel decoration, and the typical Roman The top of the temple slopes, all of which show the style of ancient Rome in its heyday, and the marble sculptures standing on both sides of the gravel path from the garden to the entrance of the palace are completely inherited from the ancient Roman period. style.

The statues of the queen Juno, the moon goddess Diana, the beauty **** Venus, and the wisdom **** Minerva extend to the palace steps, and between the towering pedestals of these sculptures, there are some little angels with different wings and postures. Being placed directly on the ground, it looks as if they are surrounded by these beautiful and noble goddesses.

The yard is not big, but I walked through the doorway, but it seemed to have walked through a small art corridor. This comfortable feeling was refreshing. After walking up the two typical Roman-style marble steps, the top of the door frame toward the visiting The majestic face of the main **** Jupiter carved on the lintel fringed by the guests was extremely eye-catching.

This is a real art hall. Even though he had not walked in, Alexander already had such emotions.

Two young women are standing on the steps, they look very beautiful, and one of them is much more beautiful and younger.

When Caesar hugged the obviously prettier girl and then kissed her tenderly cheeks like honey, Alexander knew she should be the famous Lucrezia Pogia.

To Alexander's surprise, Lucrezia Pogia had a thick blond hair that reminded him of Ruo Sha, shining like gold in the sun, and her hair was covered with a thick velvet headband set with precious stones It is **** above the head, and then naturally spreads down to the back. It looks like a forest fairy in Greek or Roman mythology. Her skin is fair like honey, maybe because of seeing When the elder brother was happy, the bare shoulders on both sides were slightly blushed, and they seemed to be transparent, and they would burst with light pressure.

Compared to the young woman next to her who was slightly older than her, Lucrezia, now 16 and under 17, looked naive and energetic. She even slightly bit mischievously when Caesar kissed her and suddenly bit Looked at his ears, and did n’t care about Alexander who was standing not far away looking at the scene, but when her brown eyes looked over, the smile on her face faded away, obviously her enthusiasm and Beauty will only show her loved ones. In front of strangers, Lucrezia Pogia has the noble identity of being the daughter of the Pope and the daughter of the Sforza family.

Alexander noticed that Caesar and the other woman seemed to be quite intimate, but apparently different from Lucrezia, Caesar seemed to maintain a slight distance from the woman.

But when he knew who the woman was, he also understood the origin of Caesar's attitude.

Julia Farne, Alexander VI's favorite mistress today.

Looking at these wonderful three people, Alexander found it quite interesting, because according to the rumours rumored in the city of Rome, the pope ’s new darling mistress seemed to be in a certain degree with her mother-in-law, a widow of a Spanish nobleman. In fact, they are sisters, because they are women of the pope, and the Spanish widow, who had raised Lucrezia, grew up, and it is said that he still lives in the Portico Palace.

This intricate and even messy relationship completely satisfies the Romans ’need for gossip, and even more rumours derived from it are even more endless, at least even in the short two days of the Carolingian Palace. , Alexander heard some vivid descriptions that the Pope always “candidly met” in the Portico Palace, even in front of his daughter.

"This is Alexandre Juliant Gumbre from Agry," Caesar and his sister talked warmly for a while before introducing Alexandre, but his attitude was casual and he didn't feel the slightest way to do so It ’s rude, on the contrary, it makes people feel that it ’s not unusual to do so, which made Alexander see the little means of this owl-style character. "You probably do n’t know where Agry is, but as long as you know France, which is widely spread now, A man ’s defeat in the Bruini Valley is only as good as his gift. "

"It was the Naples who defeated the French?" Julia Farne looked at Alexander unexpectedly. "He was so young, I thought he should be an old man who was strong but very old, just like that Gonza Luo. "

"Julia, you are wrong, young people can beat the French," Caesar corrected with a smile. "Or it is easier to beat the French because they don't have so many scruples."

Caesar's words moved Alexander's heart slightly, and he heard something from it.

The coalition forces surrounded Rome more than the French, but because of all sorts of considerations, they would not be surrounded.

If it goes on like this, with the advent of winter, it will take at least the spring of next year to launch an attack.

In fact, Alexander remembered that the Allied forces were also the Romans who recovered from the French in 1497.

It now appears that, at least today, Caesar has no good feelings for the French, let alone take advantage of the French invasion of Italy.

Perhaps it was not until Louis XII succeeded the short-lived Charles VIII to invade Italy again that Caesar would really become a French accomplice in Italy.

And also during this time, Caesar took the opportunity to expand his influence.

And now, although Caesar Borgia is powerful in Rome, in the eyes of others, after all, he is only a big backer relying on the pope's Laozi, and only by conspiracy and trickery.

While thinking about it, Alexander followed Caesar into the Potico Palace. As for Lucrezia, who is known as the most beautiful girl in the city of Rome, it seemed that she was not interested in anyone except her own brother.

It was Julia Farne, who seemed a little curious about Alexander.

In a rather magnificent room, Alexander saw Joanna, and another woman who was beside her, despite her age, still had a charming charm, attracted Alexander's attention.

This woman, UU reads a book www. uukanshu.com is Julia Farne ’s mother-in-law, an Alexandra de Mila who raised Lucrezia as an adult and served with her daughter-in-law as the mistress of Alexander VI.

Seeing Alexander, Joanna's emotions were somewhat agitated.

Although only separated for two days, after encountering the danger of almost death, being in a group of strangers, even those with strong will often feel anxious, not to mention that Joanna is obviously not such a strong person , So after seeing Alexander, Queen Naples even choked with excitement.

To some extent, this scene exposed the investigative eyes of the women next to them, and it seemed to them that the young lord had some unknown relationship with Joanna.

And Alexander was even more aware that Caesar stood aside and looked at him and Joanna with intense interest.

Think about it if Caesar took the opportunity to spread rumors and made him and Constantine de la Rovere become "love rivals", Alexander is a little bit uncomfortable, and think about if this "love rival" list may also add his own old man For a while, Alexander began to feel a little headache.
