Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

Charles VIII, dead!

The first to bring this news was a priest who arrived in Genoa from France.

This pastor was a friend of Old Rovere. As a Frenchman, he was more loyal to the old Rovere than to the king. So just after receiving the news, the pastor immediately left the monastery in the Loire Valley and went all the way down to the Mediterranean. The seaside town of Sete, then boarded a sea boat leading to Genoa.

The pastor knew how important the news he brought was to Old Rovere, so he almost didn't stay at all after hearing the news.

And his loyalty to Old Rovere was indeed impressive, because when he arrived in Genoa, he heard about the old Rovere now in Rome just after he went ashore, so he did n’t even leave the pier and hurried to get a good one. After the boat going to Naples is willing to pay an extra fee, the priest will continue his non-stop journey to the sea.

Then, on the afternoon of the next day, the priest was sent to the estuary wharf leading to Rome by boat.

Charlie's death spread to Rome in this way, but when he heard the news, Old Rovere was shocked by excessive accidents, and at the beginning did not understand what happened.

It wasn't until the pastor reported to him for the second time that Old Rovere seemed to hear clearly. He sat in a chair and stared at the pastor standing opposite. After a long time, he whispered, "What about the queen?" "

After hearing the cardinal ’s words, the priest shook his head slightly blankly. He did n’t understand why the cardinal asked the queen. Although it was no surprise to ask, he still did n’t understand what had to do with the king ’s death.

Shouldn't it care now who is the heir to the throne?

Charles VIII had no heirs, so who would be able to inherit the throne?

As long as you think about this problem, as a side branch of the Vallois royal family, the Duke of Orleans will undoubtedly become the most qualified heir to the throne in France.

So, shouldn't the cardinal be more concerned about the relationship with the new king at this time?

The priest was a little dazed, but if Alexander was next to him, he would understand why Old Rovere was first concerned about the queen.

The wife of Charles VIII is the daughter of the Duke of Brittany, and the marriage of the queen and Charles VIII is the key to maintaining Brittany's allegiance to France.

Now, Charlie's death has pushed France to a dangerous edge, which may lead to the division of Brittany and even the Principality of Burgundy, which is closely related to it, and the whole of France!

The old Rovere is the cardinal of the Vatican, the former archbishop of Genoa, and the bishops of Saint Vallier and Mensa in France.

But these are not the most important, the most important thing is that he is a supporter and ally of Charles VIII.

Charles VIII once praised Loveley's loyalty to France more than once, and as a veteran party leader, Lovere regarded it as his duty and responsibility to work for the French.

In the view of the old Rovere, a strong France is even more important than a strong Genoa, because the Governor of Genoa can be a neighbour or even a political enemy of his family, and a strong France will only be his biggest backing.

Now that Charles VIII is dead, what will the queen do? What will happen to the French?

Old Rovere rushed to restlessness, and when he finally woke up from the unexpected shock, the first thing he thought of was to see Alexander.

Old Rovere thought a lot, and even wanted to hit the perfume business that France had promised to the Rovere family.

That business has now given the Roveray family not only more income in France, but also their family and French nobility.

This is not the magical effect of perfume, but the French are experiencing the influence of civilization and prosperity through perfume.

Old Rovere believed that with the support of Charles VIII, he could always maintain this close relationship with France.

The French will have a better relationship with the Rovere family in pursuit of this fashionable and luxurious life, and in return for leading the fashion of the Paris court, it is not difficult to obtain greater support from the French.

But everything changed suddenly, what would the Duke of Orleans do? Had he been able to maintain the friendship of the age of Charlie with the Rowley family?

Old Rovere hoped to see Alexander, but because of the death of Charlie, the plan he had planned to expand the free trade union with France had become slim.

It was just that Alexander was not in Rome at this time, and he had left a few days ago.

Because in terms of time, Lucrezia's birth is coming.

Although it should have been about a month away, Alexander could not wait.

Although in the memory of Alexander, Lucrezia has a very strong fertility, in her quite colorful life, whether it is married or illegitimate, the number of children seems to reach almost double digits, but after all, those are just legends.

Alexander wanted to see his child born smoothly, and he hoped that his mother and son would be safe.

So even knowing that Lucrezia had such terrible fertility, when the time was about to come, he couldn't help but hurried to Pisa.

Tomno, Duke of Pisa, showed extraordinary enthusiasm for Alexander ’s arrival. He personally went to the pier to meet Alexander ’s team. After hearing that Alexander was eager to see Lucrezia, he did not care. The move was very understandable and resigned to his palace.

Alexander was really anxious. He didn't know if other fathers were like him, but he couldn't restrain his anxiety and excitement.

The poor birth delivery technology in this era made him tremble. Although he kept telling himself that this was just the beginning, this kind of thing would happen in the next many years, so he was used to being born, but after all, it was his first a child.

Lucrezia was obviously nervous too, and her temper was getting worse and worse during this time, especially when she thought of the conflict between Alexander and her father and brother, she began to become scared.

She was afraid of hearing the news of Alexander ’s accidental death or assassination, but she was also afraid of the bad news of her father and brother.

This made her more and more moody and suspicious, and even when someone said something behind her, she would immediately produce all kinds of terrible conjectures.

This made the life of the male and female servants who served her a lot harder, but despite her carefulness, Lucrezia still often started her temper inexplicably.

So when they saw the sudden appearance of Alexander, the servants were surprised first, and then they cheered involuntarily.

The loud noise in the room, Lucrezia, was annoyed at first, and then looked dull.

She first raised her ears with some unbelief and listened, then she showed a look of consternation.

As footsteps in the corridor outside the door got closer and closer, Lucrezia became excited.

She stood awkwardly with the help of the maid, her eyes fixed on the door.

The door opened and Alexander appeared at the door.

Although I had guessed it, when I saw it in front of Alexander, Lucrezia made a choking voice because of excitement.

Then she suddenly pushed away the maid who helped her and rushed towards Alexander.

This really frightened Alexander. He almost trembling his hands to catch the already bulging Lucrezia, and immediately took her in his arms carefully.

"Gosh, are you going to scare me?"

Alexander blamed, he did n’t know what to say, he just kept touching Lukrezia ’s back and whispered softly: "You ca n’t do this anymore. Do you know that you will really scare me."

"But you have scared me," Lucrezia kept crying while clutching Alexander's shoulder. "Do you know how scared I was when I heard that you were going to Rome? I'm afraid I won't see you again." , When you were in Liwo, I was more afraid that you would kill Caesar, or he would kill you. "

"Sorry, I'm terrified of you," Alexander gently kissed Lucrezia's temple, and then involuntarily stroked her swollen belly. "I won't let anyone kill me, even your father and brother. No, I want to watch my child be born, and then add some brothers and sisters to him in the future. "

Alexander ’s words narrowed Lucrezia ’s eyes into two slits. She kissed Alexander ’s lips a little sweetly, and then shook her head again: “I will not allow them to hurt you, and I will not allow you to hurt them. Do n’t forget that they are your family, if you can treat them better, then I will love you more. ”

Alexander smiled secretly. He didn't know how to explain it to Lucrezia, but he couldn't help but admit that although he knew it was not the case, at least in the eyes of others, he was really a member of the Pogia family.

This is also what many people think is unbelievable, because at least in the public name, his fiancee is Valentina de la Rovere, and even the title of his Earl of Montina is inherited because of his engagement to Valentino.

But he became a lover with Lucrezia again, and even fought for Lucrezia and Billy Shelly's Alfonso outside the Vatican Cathedral.

Now, Lucrezia will have a child left for him, and this child, whether male or female, will make his relationship with the Borgia family complex and entangled.

"Our children are destined to be different because they have the most special parents in the world," Alexander whispered with Lucrezia sitting on the slump and comforted them. "They will inherit your beauty, and I can let They teach them knowledge that no one in the world has mastered, and they are destined to become extraordinary people in the future. "

Lucrezia listened with her eyes closed. In fact, she didn't understand many of Alexander's words, and she was too lazy to figure out that she only needed her lover to stay with her and she was content. As for what Alexander wanted to do, she was not very concerned.

"Caesar must hate you very much," Lucrezia opened her eyes suddenly and said, "I heard you shut him up as a hostage at the Earl of Naples, but that's fine, so my father won't think about killing you. Then we waited for our child to be born. At that time, my father became a grandfather, he should not be against you anymore. "

Alexander shook his head helplessly. He felt that even if Caesar did not escape, if it was not for him to prove that it was still useful, Alexander VI might not spare him.

As for saying that when he was a grandfather, he wouldn't be enemies with him, Alexander thought it was probably a silly woman like Lucrezia.

At least Zuosha wouldn't think so. As for Barendi, Alexander felt that even if she had more children than Lukrezija in the future, she would not easily give up the idea of ​​fighting for the interests of the Rovere family.

Also, Sophia.

Thinking of Sophia, Alexander shivered slightly.

How long has it been since there was no news from Sophia?

Before, because he didn't know where Sophia was, Alexander had to send a few people.

Some of these people went to the palace in Prague, while others were sent to the Balkans to take their luck according to the rumours about the Greeks that Ashurk said.

Those people have been away for several months, but now there is still no news.

Alexander shook his head slightly. He felt that he should not think about other women at this time, let alone other girls.

Now all he had to do was stay with him wholeheartedly, waiting for the birth of their first child.

The Pisa soon learned of Alexandria's arrival, first some officials, then the Chamber of Commerce, and then the officers of the Pisa City Defence Forces. These people came to visit Alexandria, and they were not shy of being known by Tomno.

In fact, from the moment when the Pisa, which was dominated by the big merchants of the Chamber of Commerce, nearly prevented the departure of Alexander, a coup was almost launched, and many people have been vaguely aware of the changes that Pisa may have in the future.

And some keen people realized early on the purpose of Alexander leaving Lucrezia in Pisa.

From the fact that Lucrezia announced to the Pizzeria that Alexander is her fiance, and now that Alexander is fully open lover in Pisa, some smart pizzas have fully understood the purpose of the young men and women.

Regarding the fact that people walked into the house to visit Alexander, Tomnio seemed very plain. He did not show any dissatisfaction and anger to anyone, but just looked at it coldly.

On the second day of his arrival in Pisa, Alexander finally went to the Ducal Palace to see Tomónio, Duke of Pisa.

This was a very special and important meeting, because just after Alexander sent a request to the Ducal Palace the afternoon before, someone suddenly raised the question of shaking everyone.

As the Duke of Pisa, Tomnio naturally has a distinguished identity, but according to the agreement between Pisa and Montina, Alexander is the protector of Pisa.

So how should this observance ceremony be held?

When this question was asked, many of the people present seemed to feel the shock from the ground under their feet, their eyes became sharp, and their breathing was also uneasy.

Everyone knows that a critical moment is finally here!

Tomnio always listened quietly, even if the person who made this suggestion saluted him exaggeratedly while saying that it was by no means disrespectful to the Duke, nor did he show any angry expression.

Tomno just watched the people arguing endlessly, and later even blamed each other. He stopped loudly after he finally became impatient, and people turned their eyes to the Duke of Pisa.

"Tell the count that he should respect the lofty status of the Duke of Pisa and be one of the nobles with the oldest heir to the crown of Lombardy. This is the treatment I deserve," Tomnio said. With a satirical smile, he looked at the nobles and officers who had become a little ugly. He knew that these people had visited Alexander in the first day. "Please tell the count, even if it is for his own good. Please respect this noble identity and status. "

After a brief stalemate, the nobles finally chose to retreat. They bowed their heads and saluted under Tom's proud eyes.

After hearing this news, Alexander just smiled.

On May 1, after praying early.

Rarely dressed in full armor, Alexandria, accompanied by Captain Busaco, walked out of the Pisa Cathedral. From the bell tower that does not seem too crooked now, walked through an open space towards the Ducal Palace opposite the church. Go.

At the gate of the Ducal Palace, a group of nobles and officers who had been waiting for him lined up. These people ignored the eyes of others, and kissed Alexander's gloved hand as a proof of his loyalty.

The Ducal Palace of Pisa is not large, so Tomno, who had been waiting in the main hall, saw this scene from the window.

He was not angry or even making a noise. In the strange eyes of the people around him, the Duke walked back to his throne and turned to sit down slowly.

The sound of footsteps and armor friction came from outside the hall, getting closer and clearer.

The footsteps are very messy, obviously not alone.

After a while, Alexander appeared at the entrance of the main hall surrounded by a group of people.

Stepping forward, Alexandria walked across the hall to the throne of Thonio with a complex look.

Everyone held their breath, they were waiting, not knowing what would happen next.

The armor rang softly, and Alexander slowly bent his knees and knelt on one knee.

There was silence in the hall, and people stared closely at the two people.

Tomnio didn't move ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ He just looked at Alexander kneeling in front of him silently, and after a while he stood up slowly and extended his hand.

Alexander took Tomnio's hand and kissed it on his lips, at which moment he heard Tomnio whispering in a voice that only two people could hear, "I want you to remember No matter how long you will never forget to kneel in front of me in public, even if your children and grandchildren will rot this throne behind me, they must admit that you have bowed your head to me, "

Listening to Tomnia's voice full of anger, anger and hatred, Alexander slowly raised his head and looked at him calmly.

"No, you are wrong," Alexander also whispered. "My children and grandchildren will only remember the glory and pride I brought to them, because, as you said, I respect you as the heir to the Iron Crown of Lombardy. The noble identity of Yi. You only have this name, and I have the opportunity to make this inheritance right a reality. "

On May 1, 1498, the Earl of Montina officially met the Duke of Pisa and immediately announced the right of succession after the Duke of Pisa's extinction.

On May 2, the death of King Charles VIII of France spread to Pisa.

On May 5, there was a riot in Florence!
