Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

Vol 4 Chapter 147: "Estrace's Baptism"

Today ’s Pisa church is very lively, many people have already arrived at the square outside the church before the church door is opened, or gathered in groups of three or five under the bell tower behind the church, or not far away Shade near the Ducal Palace.

Everyone was looking forward to the opening of the church door, and everyone was also talking about the baptism consciousness that was about to begin.

The rumor that Estelles was to be baptized as soon as possible because of the possibility of premature death. With Alexander's previous meeting with children and pizza aristocrats, it has long been unbreakable. What people really care about now is why Count breaks customs.

There are still a lot of smart people. Some people have realized that his purpose may be to get involved in the affairs of Pisa more justly, but some people suspect that it may be related to the Borgia family in Rome.

Lucrezia's identity has always been a focus of attention, even if it is not in Pisa, many people are also very interested in this illegitimate child.

Estelles touched the hearts of too many people, many people are preparing to watch a good show, because they think that although even their daughters were born, the relationship between Alexander and the Borgia family is definitely not harmonious, and may even be As the child was born, there was even more conflict between them.

Some people who think more about it guess this result as a conspiracy of the Borgia family. They think that this is actually the method of Alexander VI trying to annex Tuscany through his daughter, and Alexander is just a tool for the family's ambitions.

Some people even predicted that if one goal was achieved, Lucrezia would return to Rome to marry Billy Alfonso Alfonso. As for Estres, it would also be likely that Lucrezia would be taken away and raised alone.

There are not many people with this kind of thinking, especially when they heard that Caesar was coming to Pizza, these people even vowed to announce that this will be the first step for the Borgia family to officially penetrate into Tuscany.

For these speculations, Alexander had heard and dismissed it, or he was actually a little bit happy.

Alexander could not forget the "Monarchy" that made Machiavelli famous, and he remembered that Machiavelli praised Caesar as the perfect monarch in this book, even explaining Caesar's every move as a kind of emperor. Embodiment of strategy.

But in Alexander's view, Caesar's every move can only be described in one word: "high-profile".

In his view, Caesar's unabashed attitude towards ambition was the main reason for his ultimate failure. Even the unexpected early death of Alexander VI was not so fatal to him.

Caesar's ambitions for Romagna can be said to be well-known, and he himself used this ambition as a means to show his personal charm, but he forgot how much dissatisfaction and hostility it would cause him.

Or he knows, but he disdains the hostility because he believes there is a pope dad behind him.

But after a sudden death of Alexander VI a few years later, Caesar fell into the embarrassment of being enemies at home and abroad, but now at this time he obviously wouldn't expect to face that kind of situation.

The main entrance of the Pisa Church is composed of two huge bronze gates. The dark green reliefs on the gates are a complete picture of heaven and hell.

The door of the church is not open at ordinary times, it will only be opened during the mass.

Hearing heavy noises, as the church door slowly opened, people began to walk towards the church.

The nobles or rich people who can enter the church early today are the few decent people who are regarded as the upper layers of Pisa. The few decent people who are considered to be the upper layers of Pisa are the real rulers of the city, and the ordinary civilians are left a little further away waiting for these people You can only enter the church after you enter, or if you have no seats, you can only stand in the corridor under the wall or simply attend the mass ceremony on the open space outside.

People noticed that the "house" of Count Montina had not yet arrived. In fact, many people were secretly speculating about whether Lucrezia should come to this ceremony, or in what capacity.

Alexandria ’s nominal fiancee was the Barondi of the Genovese Lovere family, and even his current title was acquired through this marriage, so no one thought he would desperately let Lukrezia take Estrez ’s mother ’s. The identity appears, but because of the embarrassment that the child's mother is still alive but can't appear, I don't know how Alexander should solve it.

And in the view of some people, this is absolutely not allowed by the Polynesian family, otherwise they make such a "sacrifice" but it seems outweighed.

Because of these possibilities, people are even more looking forward to the earl's "family" appearing as soon as possible. I believe that by then, no matter how to solve this problem, the scene will be very exciting.

It is not too late for Tomnio to come, just when the church door has just opened, and people are waiting for the time when the most distinguished figures enter the church first.

Today's Tomnyo travels in a full dress. A large hat must almost cover his face. A string of tassels on the hat and his clothes are the same color red and white floral ornaments. The robe has a diamond-shaped check. His body looks much more burly than it actually is, especially the thick neck lining around the neck, which will make people feel like a **** with a high chest when viewed from a distance.

In fact, this dress is inspired by the look of the rooster, especially the neck lining, which completely imitates the look of the rooster blowing up the neck feathers when excited.

Tomnio is very satisfied with the gaze people have cast on him. Although many people seem to see more of his clothes, he is enough to please him.

"Only I am the Duke of Pisa, even if I have to give up power in the future, but that would be after a long time, or after I died."

Tomnio once said this to his wife in private, because he refused to give up his power. The only way to resist was to work hard in bed. Although he knew that this hope was actually very slim, he still hoped for a miracle.

If his wife is pregnant, the Pisa ’s declaration of inheritance must be revised. Even if he still cannot avoid losing his fate, he still wants to struggle.

And Tomnio doesn't think good luck will always follow the Gombré that hates him now, maybe as the situation changes, maybe something unexpected will happen.

When entering the church, Tomnio saw many familiar faces, but some of them had become enemies standing on the side of Alexandria. Among them, in addition to seeing some officers of the City Defense Army, he actually saw the previous Either actively support him in parliament, or prefer some nobles of the Republican government.

Tomnio ’s good mood was a little bit worse. He lowered his face and entered the church, but when he just walked under the porch of the church door, he heard a burst of cheers coming behind him.

Tomno stopped and turned around, then the Duchess standing next to him noticed that her husband's face was even more ugly.

A carriage came slowly along the street under the protection of a team of cavalry.

At the front of the line, the black eagle feathers on the soft felt hats of several Bohemian hussars couldn't help but float, causing women on the street to scream.

Behind the Bohemians, the hunting guards with their breastplates and dark red uniforms reflecting each other let the men on the roadside whisper enviously.

Although the ridicule of calling the newly trained troops as the Peacock Army started from Montina, this name was soon regarded by many as the general term for the Alexander army.

Especially the hunting guards, because such an army that pays attention to appearance has never been seen, and people will feel incredible when they see them.

It's just that the hunting guards at this time attracted the attention of the pizza. In the cool morning wind of early summer, with the crisp horseshoes stepping on the stone streets, the pizza saw an army that made them feel relaxed and happy. .

The carriage wobbled slightly on the uneven road. Alexander wrapped his thick cloak. Although it was sultry, Alexander looked at his daughter who was sleeping in his arms, and Alexander smiled.

Opposite him, Lucrezia sat there with some thoughts, and she also thought of the same problems as others at this time.

The daughter was baptized, but where is she?

Realizing that Lucrezia's mood was a bit low, Alexander gently pulled her hand.

"Trust me, I will let you have a baptism ceremony that is totally worthy of you and your daughter," Alexander comforted Lucrezia with a smile. "And we will have many children in the future. I assure you that you will stand on each of them. Next to. "

Lucrezia opened her lips slightly. She did n’t expect the Alexander meeting to make such a promise to her. Her face was a little flushed. I did n’t know whether it was because I could attend the baptism ceremony of my child or because I heard that the two would have Many children.

The carriage stopped in front of the church, and Alexander walked down holding Estrez. When his toes had just landed on the ground, there was a burst of whispers from the distant crowd.

The nobles and businessmen who stood close to each other, some people came to them at this time, and then saluted.

Tomnio stood under the porch, and the distance between them was not far, but Tomnio hoped that this road should never be finished.

But reality did not match his heart, Alexander came to him.

Tomnio looked at Alexander with a complex expression. Before that, he had a deep gratitude for his young man. Although he knew that he must have his own plans, but after all, this person helped him get away from him for nearly a hundred years. Laurel of the Duke of Pisa.

But this is the young man now, but he has to take everything away from him!

Tomno didn't even know what kind of mood to face Alexander at this time.

"Duke."

"count."

Under the porch, the two salute each other while looking at each other, and then both smile.

"Is this Estelles?"

Tomnio looked at his daughter, who was held in his arms by Alexander, and asked slightly surprised.

Like many people, they do n’t quite understand Alexander ’s behavior. For the nobles of this era, even petting their children will only meet their various requirements. As for the children, they still have to be taken care of by the nanny. I walked around with my child in my arms.

Perhaps because the child ’s mother was a Borgia, Tomno could n’t help but look at Lucrezia standing next to him. He was also somewhat surprised that Alexander actually let Lucrezia attend the baptism ceremony, but of course he I would not object to it, and I even hope to see the trouble Alexander caused himself because of his confusion.

Tomnio can imagine what happens when the Rovere family hears all this.

He even vowed secretly that if this caused Alexandria to lose his status as Earl of Montina, even if he was bankrupt, he would thank God for his grace and renovate the entire Pisa Cathedral.

"my daughter."

Alexander replied in a proud tone, he noticed the gloom that passed quickly on Tomnio's face, but ignored it.

After nodding slightly to Lucrezia, Tomnio first entered the church door.

Behind him, Alexander held Estrez and walked into the gate of the Pisa church with Lukrezi under the eyes of many eyes.

Many people looked at this scene strangely.

There was a lot of talk about the silent confrontation between the two big men, and Alexander ’s insistence that Lucrezia should attend the ceremony.

For a time, many people have forgotten today's 'protagonist' Estelles.

As the big men entered the church one after another, the civilians began to enter one after another.

But because there are so many people attending the Mass, the people behind have to crowd and stand on the open ground.

Many pizzas actually came to see the two Medicis. After all, for the Pizzas, the Medici surname is really legendary and unforgettable.

Instead, the new head of the St. Mark's Abbey stationed with the two Medici stations is not so noticeable.

The young man named Proto was dragging his friend through the crowd.

Seeing a gap, he immediately arched forward with his shoulders on his side, then immediately drilled into the gap between the two, and then his arms were stretched up on both sides.

In the whispering curse of the person next to him, the teenager reluctantly squeezed to his friend. It happened that this position happened to be able to easily see the few people standing by the baptism pool.

Giovanni de Medici looked at the opposite Lucrezia curiously. He was equally surprised by the amazing beauty of this long-loved beauty, but what surprised him was Alexander's move.

Estelles was gently held by Alexander and placed on the side of the baptism pool. For a few days, the baby's original Zou Baba's skin was gradually unfolded and full.

As a result of Alexander ’s personal involvement, the result of a different way of childbirth from the moment she became pregnant is that Estelles is obviously stronger and more beautiful than other children.

A ray of sunlight projected through the tall window and was shining on Estelles in Alexandria's arms. The light seemed to wrap her small body completely for a while.

Perhaps because of the light, Estelles, who was sleepy and sleepy, moved and opened her eyes.

The little body moved, and Estelles's slightly smooth face seemed to show a daze.

Then her exposed baby's head bounced upwards, and then the corner of her mouth began to chuckle gently.

Standing on the side, Lucrecia showed an anxious look. She knew that her daughter must be hungry, but now the ceremony had not been held. Seeing her daughter's small mouth wriggling, Lucrecia couldn't help but get upset.

At this moment, Alexander holding Estrel suddenly turned around under everyone's attention. Alexander carelessly placed his daughter in the arms of some dazed Lucrecia.

And he stepped back and stood beside Lucrezia.

People looked at this scene unexpectedly, and Giovanni de Mettizi's face was a little surprised.

He didn't expect the Alexander Conference to do so.

The child's father embraces the baby, which indicates that he admits that the child is his own blood, and the mother and father stand together, indicating that the child is the legitimate child of a legal couple blessed by God.

But now, Alexander's actions have completely destroyed this tradition.

In the morning, clean and warm sunlight projected on Lucrezia, and because of the familiar smell, Estheris, who was a little irritable, became quiet.

She arched in Lucrezia ’s arms, and when Lucrezia lifted her body halfway up according to Giovanni de Medici ’s gesture, gently placed her head on the side of the holy pool, gently The cool water droplets sliding over her forehead caused Estrez to kick comfortably, and then a pair of beautiful eyes opened again.

The bright black eyes like the morning star set off Lucrezia's concerned face, and Estelles's slightly rich cheeks moved, showing the first smile since birth.

"Gaba!"

A crunch came from the young man in the crowd. His friend looked back strangely, and saw the young man's face with a nearly dull expression, and the brush he had always used to hold was already broken by him. Two cuts.

"I found it, it's like this, this is exactly the inspiration I've been looking for!"

The teenager suddenly said anxiously to a friend on the side, he ignored the strange eyes thrown at him by the people around him, and turned and squeezed out of the crowd.

The riots there immediately caught the attention of the hunting guards. Some soldiers had begun to walk in the direction of the disturbance, and Uliu, who had been standing far from the corner, immediately waved to those soldiers.

The soldiers slowed down. They knew they could not cause unnecessary trouble in this kind of place. They only looked at the two guys crowded in the crowd. The guards' eyes were angry.

They had made up their minds and waited for those two guys to learn from them once they had placed orders.

"Estelles, use holy water to wash away the uncleanness that was born when you were born, wash away your confusion about faith, holy water will wash your heart and make you convert to the glory of God." Giovanni De Medici gently wiped Estelice ’s delicate forehead with water drops, and whispered "Your religious name is Lourdes, this is an ancient saint, this name will follow you until you enter the cemetery Be called. "

"And I will be your godfather, Lourdes Sesteles Juliant Gumbre," Mahimo said suddenly, noticing that Julio's mouth was pulling a bit, so he slightly Take a step forward, "I will lead you to listen to the teachings of God and make you a devout Christian."

The water droplets gently touched Estrez's skin, causing her to be a silent smile that touched countless people.

The loud singing of the Mass sounded from behind the choir, and Alexander slowly came out of the crowd. When he saw Uliu making a gesture to him from afar, he walked through the crowd to the corner.

"What just happened?"

"There is no master, just two students at the University of Pisa. One of them was suddenly inspired by seeing Miss Estelles. Now he is clamoring to rush back to school to complete a 'great work'. "

Seeing Uliu say this when he didn't take it for granted ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ Alexander felt relieved, but he was still very relieved about Uliu, knowing that the Moors would not be confused to let it go. A person who poses a threat.

"That man is a student of the University of Pisa?" Alexander asked smoothly before leaving.

"Yes, Lord Sandy is from the University of Pisa," Uliou replied less concerned. Since there was no threat, he didn't care what the guy was doing.

"Sandy," Alexander stopped suddenly, but this surname is rare. "What do you say his name is?"

"Raphael Sandy."

"Raphael!" Alexander froze. "Do you know what he is painting?"

"It seems to be a trinity." Uliu looked at Alexander a bit strangely.

"Trinity, Raphael?" Alexander thought for a moment, then told the Moors to "tell him that no matter how much he wanted, I bought this painting."
