Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

Vol 4 Chapter 44: Change, start with art

Alexander could hardly remember how he returned to the Marino Palace. He could only vaguely remember the warmth of the cloud that seemed to be trapped in a cloud of the carriage and the comfort of being slightly cooler later, which made He moved comfortably, and then fell into a deep sleep again.

After several days of running, there was little time for rest on the road. When I stopped every day, I almost fell to the ground and slept without even setting up the campsite. In addition to the first day, I could eat something because of hunger. The Gree people were too tired to even have the desire to eat.

At that time, Alexander dragged his tired body with a spear in his hands and kept banging to urge the soldiers to eat, but when he took out the water and dried breaded meat, he could only bite his teeth and force himself Eat a little bit.

Hungry, tired attacks alternately left some people behind, but no one helped them. Everyone seemed to know that this trip to Rome would be a major test for them. Under this test, no cheating and no cheating are allowed, because Those who cannot pass the test will not be able to take responsibility for protecting themselves and their companions in the future.

It was such four days that Alexander could n’t even remember how he insisted on going on when he saw the shadow of the Roman city.

Then came the sight of the Pope and rushed to Portico Palace. In fact, when Lucrezia was sleeping peacefully beside him, Alexander could only use biting lips to remind himself not to sleep.

The decent dinner prepared by De Mila was the last blow that made him unable to persevere. The feeling of drowsiness that followed when he was full and drunk finally knocked him out after seeing Lukrezija, which made Alexander It was too late to even say a complete sentence with Ruosha, and slept in a drowsy mind.

And the feeling was so sweet that I did n’t even know when I would return to the Marino Palace and then how it was sent to a comfortable bed.

In his sleep, he seemed to feel that someone was sitting beside him. Out of instinctive vigilance against danger, Alexander's body curled slightly to protect the weakest part of himself, and then he seemed to feel that his body was buried in a softer place. , Which made him move again and then went to sleep deeply again.

I didn't know how long it was, but although I still felt weak all over, my eyelids seemed to be unable to open, but once I heard a little sound, Alexander suddenly woke up.

Or he was not at ease in his heart about his surroundings. He woke up quickly, and then he struggled to force himself to sit up.

This is his room in Portico Palace. Everything in this room is so familiar. When he woke up, he even almost used to shout "Sophia".

Sophia always got up earlier than him.

He often wakes up to see Sophia sitting in a chair opposite the bed either tinkering with her short crossbow or constantly rubbing the glass pendant on the worthless necklace that Alexander gave her.

But now when Alexander looked away, the chair opposite was empty, which made him stunned for a moment, and then remembered that it was now the end of June, and Sophia had been away for a long time.

Maybe it ’s a long time of fatigue that makes people ’s emotions fragile. Alexander was so inexplicably missing Sophia at this moment, but soon he was awakened by the faint noise outside the door. He looked at the window when he saw the outside. After the already bright daylight, Alexander immediately got out of bed, he did not care to put on his jacket, and walked directly to the door with his shoulders open to open the door.

Everyone in the hallway seemed to be surprised, seeing Alexander standing at the door, Joanna whispering something to the servant, then quickly turned around and walked away.

"Sorry Your Majesty."

Alexander casually said that he did not intend to neglect Joanna, but as long as he thought about the things between her and Nashan, he felt that the former queen really didn't need to be so solemn.

"Count, I didn't expect you to sleep so little, and there are people betting that you will sleep until the moon comes out at night." Joanna looked back and looked at Alexander. "But it seems that Miss Count Cosenza won, and she ordered before Someone prepares breakfast for you, it should be that she has guessed that you will wake up so early. "

Alexander first bowed slightly to Joanna, and then took the servant next to him and handed his long coat over him.

"Your Majesty, I hope you have had a good time during this time."

Alexander wanted to say a few unrelated words, but somehow he even felt the irony in his voice that he could not conceal.

In fact, since Sophia left, he had an indescribable aversion to Joanna. He could think of what Joanna had done when Sophia was forced to leave. At least this was suddenly from her life. You can see it when you have plenty of money.

That should be Barendi's reward for her help.

A queen actually started to run errands for people for such a small amount of money, which made Alexander disgusted with Joanna's greed while lamenting the anxiety in his life.

Joanna's face with a smile on her face sank instantly. She seemed to want to be angry, but she finally endured.

She knows very well that she is now nothing. From the moment Frederick broke her annuity, she was completely trapped in embarrassment. Now she is not even as good as some strong families in the city of Rome. She was even thinking about whether to dismiss some servants to converge.

Although she is still the owner of the Marino Palace in name, everyone knows that she has become a casual eater, or simply put her under the fence.

The cost of the entire Marino Palace was previously supported by Alexandria. Since the seemingly rich Countess of Cosenza came, the former Queen of Naples, Joanna, could only live in this house. .

Alexander bowed again to do his best, and then he walked across the corridor to the stairs, because he heard the servant saying that Ruo Sha was in the hall below.

When seeing Ruo Sha, Alexander first stopped at the stairs and stood for a while to watch carefully before slowly walking down the stairs.

At this time, Ruosha was with a few people who looked a bit artistic, because these people were either dirty or as if they had just come out of the quarry, just like they were dancing and talking. "Xiaomi", or even though the clothes look normal, they will bite their fingernails from time to time, and do a few small actions that only literary young people and nervous artists have, just like standing next to Rusha His eyes stared at Ruosha's silhouette to someone who kept on.

Alexander didn't like the man's eyes, so he walked downstairs and walked directly in front of the man to come to Rusha.

"What are you doing?" Alexander picked up a drawing on the table and looked at it.

"I am going to repair this palace."

Ruosha casually said that at this time she was interested in listening to the endless "Xiaomi" nagging his design masterpiece.

"This is not a simple repair," Alexander muttered, looking at the drawing. "Are you going to tear down and rebuild the Marino Palace?"

"As the residence of the Count of Montina today, the Marino Palace may be enough," said Zuosha, leaning forward, and said in Alexander's ear with a voice that only two people could hear. "It can be used as a future trust. Skane is even the owner of Romagna, this house is too small. "

Alexander looked at Ruosha in amazement. He had never seen Ruosha's ambitions. Before, he had only shown her high interest in the pursuit of wealth. When was she suddenly so interested in power.

Just looking at the rough blueprint of the palace, though it was only a rough sketch, Alexander felt that something was wrong.

"My friend, are you dissatisfied with this," 'Xiaomi' asked, looking at slightly frowning Alexander, and then suddenly realized that the person in front of him was no longer the person he knew before, so he hurried back Bowed "Please forgive me for being rude, but I still ask you, are you dissatisfied with my design?"

When asked in this way, although he wanted to soften the tone, the tone of ‘Xiaomi’ could not help but bring a bit of stubbornness.

How dare I have any dissatisfaction with your masterpiece, Alexander laughed bitterly.

Questioning Michelangelo's artistic standards, Alexander was not arrogant enough to think he had that skill.

But he still thinks this sketch looks strange.

Then he suddenly remembered something and turned back and asked the servant next to him: "What is the church of Cardinal Monteiro?"

The servant froze.

Cardinal Monteiro, this term has not been used for a long time.

Since the previous cardinal was inexplicably killed, the successor Bishop Monteiro did not hold the cardinal position.

The servant who wanted to understand quickly replied: "The Bishop's Master is in the church of Santa Ana."

"Oh."

With a strange look on his face, Alexander murmured and said nothing more.

The man who left only a room looked at him inexplicably.

Alexander looked at Zuosha and whispered, "Are you going to overthrow the Marino Palace?"

"I just hope this palace will be suitable for us to live in for a long time."

Luo Sha's words caused an inexplicable heat in Alexander's heart.

He knew that the phrase "suitable for us" moved him.

Just looking at the sketch, Alexander felt a little bit dazed.

Symmetrical axes, straightened vertical walls, the structure of the entire house known for being evenly divided, and a large number of externally hung windows specially designed for the purpose of lighting. These structures made Alexander very fast. I recognized such a house from the quite unique appearance on the sketch.

In the Palace of Blanca, Alexander felt that he should have admitted it correctly.

This is a building that will be very famous in many years. Even for those who have been to Rome, in addition to the amazing ancient Roman ruins such as the Pantheon of the Colosseum, the Palazzo Blancacio is also a must-visit place. One.

The palace was even famous in the world for the story she interpreted with a beautiful woman named Audrey Hepburn, and her story was called "Roman Holiday".

Alexander had some inexplicable confusion in his memory. In his memory, the Blanca Jo Palace would not be completed until more than half a century later, and it was his rival Sforza who owned this luxurious palace.

It was just that Sforza had been ousted from the throne of the Duke of Milan, and the people of the Sforza family could only rely on the wealth accumulated by the family over the years to become rich in Rome.

But now, the Brancacho Palace is about to appear half a century earlier, and the person who built this glorious building famous in later generations is no longer Maldino, known as the father of Baroque architecture, but becomes Michelangelo, who has just become famous in Rome.

It's just that despite the changes in both the designer and the owner, the Brancacho Palace is still the same. Even if it is almost half a century in advance, the peculiar appearance of the palace still appears on the drawings, and then There will be another more brilliant master master to complete this immortal extraordinary building.

Alexander was still a bit dumbfounded, which, in the eyes of others, should be because there was no rest yet.

But only Alexander himself knew that his stunnedness was not because of physical fatigue, or just because he suddenly discovered that his sister was going to build a beautiful building that was highly respected by future generations, and even regarded as a wedding palace by many young people. .

He was in a trance, discovering that history was gradually changing, even if it was only the change of the designer of a building, which also showed that the historical trajectory that he was barely familiar with was slowly changing without quietly changing the edge.

So, will everything he planned before eventually take a path he is not familiar with as time goes by and the situation changes?

If so, what kind of preparation should he do?

Alexander pondered over and over again that even "Xiaomi" did not pay attention to what he said.

"Sir, don't you agree with my request?"

Alexander didn't wake up until he heard this unpleasant inquiry because of the increased tone.

"Sorry I might not have slept well before, you should have heard that I spent four days from Montina to Rome," Alexander explained slightly apologetically, and he still admired the outstanding future master, although now I can't really see what he has to do with the master's title. "Right, what did you just say?"

Michelangelo shook his head a little helplessly, but then he looked at Alexander's eyes and showed excitement and enthusiasm. That way, Alexander couldn't help remembering the rumors about certain orientations of 'Xiaomi' in later generations, which made him wonder The trace took a step back.

"I just got permission from the countess, and now I want to know from you, am I lucky enough to make you a model of a work I have been brewing?" Michelangelo used to look like a gem waiting for carving Stone ’s eyes looked up and down at Alexander “Your appearance, your face, and the lines set off by the shadow of this nose, all of which proves that you are the most suitable image for my work, I remember our first meeting. I ’ve mentioned it before, and now I ’m asking you again. Believe me this is definitely a real art treasure, and I can assure you that once this masterpiece is completed, it will inevitably become a treasure that is handed down to the world. I believe this masterpiece will never insult your reputation as a model, and may even become a legend admired by the world with you many years later. "

Alexander's heart jumped slightly ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ He already vaguely guessed what the masterpiece Michelangelo said, which made him secretly excited.

Who doesn't want his image to be passed on to future generations, even if this image is naked.

Since even the Brancacho Palace will appear in advance, it is strange that some art treasures handed down from later generations are made in his image.

A smile appeared on Alexander's face. Just when he was about to agree, he seemed afraid that he would not accept the request. Michelangelo turned back and looked at them with great interest. Countess, I am also preparing to make a statue for you, and I believe you will like it too. "

"Absolutely not!"

Alexander immediately changed his mouth, staring angrily at the somewhat inexplicable 'Xiaomi' in front of him.

Alexandria was very clear that the things carved by Michelangelo, both men and women, were naked.

Then he said fiercely to the dumbfounded ‘Xiaomi’: “You ’re gonna die, do n’t think about it!”
