Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

Vol 4 Chapter 116: First move

Pelotto Cardron walked through the bustling crowd in front of him, trying to keep his head down as low as possible, and walked down the street.

This is a place not too far from Rome ’s famous canopy market. The street is narrow and extends down the terrain. Every few steps, there is a small roadside door leading to the houses on both sides. Sometimes men and women come out of these small doors from time to time. From the look on their faces, you can guess what they did in the past.

Cardron came very carefully to an inconspicuous little door. This is where the famous prostitutes in Rome are gathered. There are many prostitutes here, even more than the legendary Vatican, which is completely an open-air brothel. There are still many squares,

Cardron carefully looked at both sides of the street, then patted the door vigorously, and after a while the door opened slightly, and after seeing Cardron standing outside, the door opened and a middle-aged woman appeared at the door.

"You're late," the woman said, carefully looking out when she put Cadron into the door, and then quickly closed the door.

Cardron, who entered the house, said sorry to the woman: "I know, but I haven't been able to get away these days. I want to know that Earl of Montina ..."

"The Earl of Montina is not your master," a cold woman's voice came from the end of the corridor of the house, a figure blocked the light, and the entire aisle was dimmed "or you never forgot Lucrezia. "

"How could this be my wife," Cardron hurried towards the woman. When he walked in front of the woman, he bent down to salute, then reached out and put the woman in his arms. "I've always been there Miss you, if I could, I wish I could stay with you every day. "

Cardron's hug was a little bit fierce, which moved the woman's slightly awkward body. The middle-aged woman who had been with him reached out and patted Cardron's shoulder to remind him: "Madam is inconvenient. point."

"I'm so sorry," Cardron said, letting go of the arms around the woman, and then staring at the woman's tall belly. "Do you know how excited I am now, because you are pregnant with my child."

"Just because I'm pregnant with your child, do you care so much about me?" The woman asked a bit deliberately, seeing Cadron's speechlessness, and the woman froze him coldly. She broke free and dragged her awkward body towards the room.

Cadron looked at the middle-aged woman next to him, and after getting a hint of catching up, he hurried into the room at the end of the aisle.

This is a small room, in addition to the street, there is a small door leading to the back yard, so that the owner of the house can avoid many people's attention and enter and leave at will.

The woman walked into the room, stopped and turned around, the sun shining on her black mourning dress and face, reflecting a face familiar to many Romans.

Giovanni Pogia's wife is now Maria de Luna, a widow.

Maria de Luna's body is much bloated than before, and her waist, which is already fully cherished, is pushed forward, because she has had the experience of having two children, so she is not like those mothers. The woman was just as careful, so when Cardron hugged her again, she just moved symbolically, allowing Cardron to perform small gestures on her intimately.

"What exactly did that Gombray want, did he want to keep you by his side?" De Luna looked at Cadron suspiciously. "Or did you ask him, did you not forget Lucrezia?" ? "

"Ma'am, you really wronged me," Cardron said a little wronged. "I don't know why the Earl of Montina would leave me. He always took me after sending Caesar away. I didn't even have this time. Been to Pisa. "

"Is that true?" Maria de Luna looked at Cardron with some disbelief. Because of her personal affair with Cardron, she knew more about the young follower's obsession with Lucrezia. This Let her once think that the little aunt is her biggest rival.

"Of course it is. You know my love for you is true. I can do everything for you."

De Luna froze a little, then nodded slowly.

"Listen, I do n’t care if you still love Lucrezia, but when I give birth, you must be by my side, even if I ca n’t be by my side, where I can see you at any time, as for you Leave me away from that gombre. "

De Luna commanded hard, and then ignored Calderon's somewhat helpless look, and sat down a little tiredly, leaning on the chair, closing his eyes, and slightly dimmed.

Cardron looked at the middle-aged woman who had been standing silently at the door, and when he saw her expressionless expression, he couldn't help smiling.

Becoming a lover of a prominent woman such as Maria de Luna is probably the dream of all men, but only when you really become her lover will you know that this woman sometimes makes people feel terrible.

When Cardron left, he went out from the back garden. They were very careful. First, after the middle-aged woman stood outside the yard and looked at someone who was not suspicious, Cardron hurried out along the courtyard wall to the distance Go.

Cardron did not know that behind him, Maria de Luna and the middle-aged woman had been watching his back disappear.

"Do you think he will reveal the matter?" Maria de Luna asked the woman next to him.

"Who knows," the woman is still expressionless and her voice is hoarse and low, like a hot towel wrapped around her throat. It does n’t help. "

Upon hearing the woman's words, Maria de Luna showed a trace of annoyance on her face.

"Who would have thought that man was so unlucky, I originally thought that while Lucrezia was alone in the monastery, he sent a beautiful-looking young man, and it must be easy to hook her. I am too familiar with Lucrezia. , She is a spoiled silly girl, as long as he is obsessed with that man, he will not pay attention to Pelotto, who thought that the guy had n’t attracted the attention of Lucrezia before he was killed by the gombre Now. "

"But isn't this also very good, now that Lucrezia is completely obsessed with the Earl of Montina, and even willingly gave birth to him, is this better than sending someone to seduce her?" The middle-aged woman is a little bit Looking puzzled at Maria de Luna.

De Luna glared at the woman with a hint of irony in her eyes.

"What do you know, to a man, Lucrezia is like a princess who was robbed by a dragon. Pelotto now sees himself as the knight who wants to save the princess, and he will honestly stay in the Earl of Montina By his side, he was actually looking for a chance to rescue his princess. Be aware that a woman who is abducted and a woman who is willing to hook up with a man have different positions in the minds of men. "

The woman listened silently. She did not miss the contempt of Maria de Luna when she said these words. Her eyes turned out of the window, and she looked out of the courtyard wall where there was no figure of Cardron.

Cardron walked cautiously forward. Sometimes he would suddenly stop and look left or right, or walk back in a big circle. After so much delay, he finally determined that no one was following. Only then went to the direction of the Carolingian Palace.

Cardron knew he had to be careful. After all, if an affair with Giovanni Widow was discovered, he would definitely not end well.

Since he was young, or since he has n’t remembered, he came to the Borgia family, so he is more familiar with this family than everyone else. He knew that Alexander VI was still when he was Archbishop of Valencia. Through the days of ridiculousness every day, I also know why the pope would suspect that Jeffrey was not his own child.

But these are not important, the important thing is that he is well aware of the cruelty of this family of Borgia.

Probably, apart from Lucrezia, all Borgias inherited the cruel and cruel character of the family. Speaking of which, this is also the reason why Cardron will always miss Lucrezia.

Maria de Luna was right, he never forgot Lucrezia, and he did indeed have the idea of ​​saving Lucrezia from Alexander who hijacked her.

Cardron is very clever. This can be seen from the fact that he can always serve the two generations of the Pogia family as a confidant.

He knew that it was impossible to rescue Lucrezia with his power, or that he knew very well that even if he could take Lucrezia away from Alexander, it was useless.

Despite his unwillingness to admit it, Cardron knew that Lucrezia was hooked on the Earl of Montina.

Sometimes Cardron was very angry with Lucrezia ’s innocence and his inability to speak sweetly to men, especially when she heard that she was willing to give birth to Alexander, and the poisonous jealousy made him almost take the risk of taking risks.

If it were not the hunting guards around Alexander and Paul Busako, who looked dangerous, Cardron had almost decided to start against Alexander.

But he was not in a hurry to take risks now, because he found that Alexander seemed to be planning something when he came to Rome this time.

This can be seen from the fact that he often receives all kinds of visiting guests in the Marino Palace, and Cadron is keenly aware that among the guests who visit Alexandria, it seems that some of them are Alexander and do not want the Pope to know.

This made Cardron decide to endure and look closely. He wanted to know what Alexander was doing, and then he would report everything he found to the pope, maybe not only can he help the pope save the hostage Caesar as soon as possible, and even take the opportunity to completely Tumble Alexander to the ground.

Calderon thought this way with a gratifying smile. He felt that he should not be too far away from the victory.

In the hallway outside the Caroline Palace Tiego ’s office, several people are meeting together and talking to each other. When they see someone passing by, they will immediately stop and stare at the person vigilantly, and then wait for someone to go. Far before continuing to whisper.

The appearance of Cardron attracted the attention of these people. They watched him come over. When Cardron was going to pass by these people, one of those people seemed to suddenly remember something. This person first issued a The tentative "Hey", when he saw Cardron stopped and looked back, he stepped up and asked a little hesitantly: "Are you a servant of the Earl of Montina, I remember seeing you follow the Earl outside the cathedral. "

Cadron thought quickly, and then moved slightly to this person: "Yes, I am the servant of Lord Earl. I don't know if you have anything."

"It's true, the count's follower," the man looked back with excitement and looked at several other companions. "That's it. We came from Florence. We hope to see the count, or the Tiego by the count." Or, we are merchants in Florence, and we want the help of the count. "

Cardron groaned a little, he had been listening to the people around Alexander mentioning Florence, but it was not clear what these people wanted to do.

However, he knew how much the Pope hated Florence's governor, Savonarola. He saw with his own eyes that once the Pope criticized Savonarola for publicly criticizing him during the sermon, he was so angry that he used a whip. A young prostitute who was sent to him for fun was beaten fiercely, and the miserable appearance of the girl at that time made Carder frightened and frightened for several days.

Did these people come from Florence and ask Goumbre for help?

Cardron's heart suddenly jumped a few times. He first looked at the sides of the aisle. When he saw that no one had noticed them, he gestured to these people slightly and asked them to walk towards Thiego's office.

There is a guard outside Thiegó ’s office, which is very rare in the Carolingian Palace, but since Thiegó can now be said to control almost the entire wealth of Rome, it is not surprising that someone protects his safety Too.

Thiego was not in the Carolingian Palace. During this time he had been on the exchange in the city of Rome, and he did not even leave at night.

According to Alexander ’s instructions, he must get the exchange to work as quickly as possible, because as far as he knew, the Groningen had already left Rome a few days ago, and the next step was to follow him and Alexander. The agreement, in the shortest time to raise a variety of cheap bulk goods, and then shipped to Amsterdam.

This is a deal destined to lose money. After all, their purpose is not to make money with those goods, but purely to occupy the throughput and warehouse reserves and transportation channels of the Port of Amsterdam. In this way, the money can be said to be basically like Throw it directly into the canals of Amsterdam.

After hearing that Alexander had actually handed over a credit card of up to 21,000 Ducats to Grogning in such a vain way, even Thiego, who thought he was already well-informed, was frightened by such a big bet.

This made him suddenly feel a little difficult to bear the pressure, because he knew that if Grogning could not mobilize the wealth of Rome during the nearly four-month closure period for him, then Alexander ’s enormous size Dazzling plans, after all, will fall into irreversible dilemma completely.

By that time, the huge debts, the collapse of credit, and the terrible consequences that followed, these are the things that Tiego dare not think about.

So during this time Tiego shut himself in the exchange, he needed to let those men understand what to do, and also let those rich in Rome know as soon as possible how they stood in front of a rare opportunity to plunder wealth .

Cardron brought the few people into the office. The room was very small. In addition to a large table and a row of drawers by the wall, there were only two seats.

"Sorry, Lord Tiegold is not here now," seeing those people showing disappointment, Cardron quickly said, "But I can report your affairs to him, of course it must be really important, so you have to tell me you What the **** is going to find Lord Thiegos. "

Several businessmen showed a hesitant look. They didn't seem to know whether to tell the follower this matter. After making a look at each other, the greeting businessman finally spoke under the encouragement of his companions.

"That's it, we hope to buy some goods from Mr. Thiego."

"Buy goods?" Cardron looked at these people unexpectedly. He felt that he was a bit wasted. "Then you can go to the market in Rome. If you need more, you can go to Pisa. Now there. But it's very lively. "

Cardron's arrogant attitude made several businessmen show an angry look, but after looking at each other again, the businessman held back the low pressure and said: "In fact, what we are going to buy is not ordinary goods, which may make us encounter Some troubles, so I can only ask Mr. Thiego for help, and we came here only after a friend's recommendation. "

The merchant ’s mysterious behavior aroused Caderon ’s curiosity. After thinking about it, he said in a slightly respectful tone: "Master, please forgive me for being rude, but as the earl sent to Lord Thiegos, I must do Your duty, if you do n’t tell me what ’s the matter, I ca n’t rush to disturb the lord, you probably also heard about the exchange, which was established by His Majesty the Pope, even Lord Earl ca n’t delay This event. "

The businessmen were embarrassed, and the few of them gathered in the corner and murmured again. Just when Cadron felt impatient, the businessman came over.

"That's it, we are a common friend in Florence, James Columbus," the businessman lowered his voice slightly, seeming to be afraid of being heard by someone outside the room. "Recommended us to come to Lord Earl, he said Earl Here are some special products we need. "

"What is it?" Cardron also asked in a low voice.

"It's some self-defense weapons, and," the businessman licked his lips "can provide us, help us organize a small number of useful firearms ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ Cadron young His face froze for a moment, he seemed to hear his head buzz, and then looked at the businessman in disbelief.

"Sorry, can I ask if you are sure that James Columbus is a friend of Lord Earl?"

Cardron couldn't be more careful, he felt that the matter before him was almost breathless.

The completely open conflicts and even hostility between Alexander VI and Florence are well known, and many people are even saying that if it was not for the French invasion and the subsequent Romagna War, Alexander VI had to With some scruples, he had already paid a lot of money to hire an army to kill Florence.

This is why the Pope would spare no effort to support Caesar's formation of the army. Even if it was not to compete for Romagna, the Pope obviously could not bear the monk of Savonarola that hated him.

But now, there are so few Florentine merchants coming to Rome to buy weapons from Alexandria, and the person who recommended them is still a friend of Alexandria.

Cardron felt that God had blessed him today.

"Please wait here, I will report this matter to Lord Thiago," said Cadero, and hurriedly walked to the door. When he arrived, he did not forget to turn around and command, "I think you know that you are here Where, and where did you come from, so ... "

"We will not cause trouble," the businessman said in a low voice. "Relax, we are here waiting for your news."

"That would be great, please wait for me here."

After talking, Cardron walked out of the room.

Walking out of the Carolingian Palace, Cadron stood on the steps and thought for a moment, then he turned and ran quickly towards the Sistine Cathedral.
