Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

The basement was a bit dull. Alexander VI instructed his followers to bring in the iced wine, and after filling two glasses, handed one of them to Alexander: "It must be admitted that I didn't think you would really succeed."

Hearing the pope's self-deprecation, Alexander just smiled silently.

This is a bold and even crazy plan. It has been carried out step by step meticulously from the day it was implemented. No one would think that even the pope has participated in such a plan and conspiracy, and the purpose is only to give the Fugger family the final 'S fatal blow!

Alexander's companions still did not think to what extent he attached importance to the Fugel family, nor did he think of what attachment he had to the family's wealth.

From the old John who laid the foundation of this family to the three brothers of the Jacob Fugger today, not only did they create amazing wealth in just two generations, but they also firmly grasped the highest with the Holy Roman Empire The precious resource relationship between the rulers, even in a few decades, the family can buy the most noble crown in Europe. Only these few points are enough to allow Alexander to regard the Fugel family as their own. The biggest and most threatening enemy in business competition.

Although the Jews in Venice had planted a seemingly doomed trap for the Fugger family, Alexander was still uneasy. He knew that the cleverness of Fugger might have a way to miraculously go from crisis to adversity. He got rid of it, and once the Fugor family was given such an opportunity, the next thing he brought to him was bound to be endless trouble.

There are no impenetrable walls in the world. Based on the experience and relationship of the Fugger family, it is not difficult to figure out who is behind them. Perhaps the Venetians do not care about this, because they were originally incompatible with Emperor Maximilian. , So they do n’t even care if they offended the Fugger family who supported him, but Alexander could n’t help but worry about the troubles he might bring if he was exposed. The key is that he did n’t want the Fugger family to procrastinate at this time. His hind legs.

So he had to take advantage of the Fugels' deep quagmire and was struggling for the difficulties in front of him. He had to give the last and most fatal blow to this behemoth created with gold and power.

It is now June 1499, which means that no one is more clear than Alexander. When the attention of the Italians is focused on the French, Alexander ’s eyes are turned to the entrance of the Mediterranean West, and the African continent. The Iberian Peninsula across from each other.

Soon, a news that will shake the entire West will come. By then, the Fugger family is no longer surprising, and even the entire Mediterranean economic circle will face a tremor like a major earthquake.

Thinking of this in his heart, Alexander asked for a refreshing wine.

"Your Majesty, the Fugger family is over. Now they have not only lost everything, but are in debt, so we can carry out the next plan." Alexander said to the pope with a smile.

Alexander VI nodded. When he heard about the amount of money the Jews had lent to the Fugger family in this amazing scam, even the Pope, who was famous for his extravagance, was terrified. He could hardly imagine it. How dare Alexander make such a big hand, which even made the pope once secretly wonder if anyone was manipulating all this behind his back.

However, after a series of events, the Pope finally realized that all of this was planned by Alexander, and now that the plan is now at this stage, in addition to lamenting the exquisiteness and success of the plan, the Pope was also secretly shocked.

Although there are many people involved in this plan, for many people, planning to this step has meant the end. The next step is how everyone pounces on the banging behemoth, and then in Fugel this rich The fat loot was cut from the oily prey.

But Alexander VI was one of the few people who knew that things were not over, and even said that he was at most half successful.

Because according to Alexander ’s plan, the next thing to do is to bring them a steady stream of wealth, rather than simply making small fortunes in the already-declined settler of Fugel.

"Do you think we really have a chance?" The Pope was eager to try but hesitated slightly. After seeing Alexander sent a secret letter from the Balkans, Alexander VI almost got a stroke because of excitement and excitement. After all, this is not only A bold and crazy plan, whether it ’s the first half of the Fugger family or the later idea of ​​making the pope coveted as long as you think about it, it ’s actually not easy to put it into practice. Here, and Louis and Charlie are different, this person is not easy to deal with. "

"Your Majesty, I have dealt with Louis in Sicily, he is this man," Alexander smiled. Not only was he impressed by the former Duke of Orleans, he was even able to say that he met after this time. The first truly big man, but unfortunately, he and Louis seem to be incapable of dealing with each other, and even when he was just a little man, he had forged a beam with the future French king. "But the trouble now is not Louis but Caesar."

Hearing Alexander ’s words, the Pope ’s look slightly changed. He gently lowered the wine glass, reached out and put his hand on Alexander ’s shoulder and pressed hard: "Alexander, do n’t you think you are a little too harsh or prejudiced against Caesar, I know He hates you a little bit. After all, you took Lucretia. This is the attitude that every brother will have. I also know that he is jealous of you because he was too proud before but you let him taste the failure again and again. " The Pope said while taking Alexander away from the door. "In addition, you have to admit that you are closer to Giovanni, but he is very indifferent to him, which makes him very unhappy and uncomfortable, but you are all family anyway. , Family members can and should be tolerant of each other. "

Listening to Lao Zhang's tiresome persuasion, Alexander was wondering what Caesar would think after knowing what happened.

Compared with Jeffrey, another bear child who taught the royal family, Caesar is undoubtedly more dangerous.

Alexander was really surprised about Caesar's sudden return from France, so when he showed up, Alexander felt that the plan was disrupted.

He deliberately spilled the wine he had sent before, just to take the opportunity to ask Cardron to bring the pope with the message, but also to take the opportunity to remind the pope not to let Caesar suddenly spoil them.

After all, a courageous and determined person may cause more trouble than a bear child who can only dream of teaching his brother all day long.

In this plan, it can be said that there is no Caesar's role at all. In Alexander's impression, Caesar may be a good army commander. At least he is courageous and brave to charge, but everything stops there. The so-called famous Duke of Poison is even more famous. Most of it came from his father's powerful power. When Alexander VI died unexpectedly, Caesar's career immediately went downhill, and finally his death seemed quite strange.

But now Caesar seems to have become a stumbling block around him, whether it is his abnormal feelings for Lucrezia, or perhaps, as Alexander VI said, his inexplicable hostility to him because of jealousy and various reasons makes Alexander feel self-righteous. Caesar, in the future will be a guy who is not successful enough.

If you think about it, this is probably why he was obviously more sympathetic to Giovanni. Even now, Alexander is somewhat sorry for Giovanni ’s death, because he believes that if Giovanni is alive, he and The relationship between the Borgia family is at least much more normal than it is now.

"That Frenchman, Earl de Bowencan of Provence, what are you going to do with him?"

Hearing Alexander avoiding himself and asking such a difficult question, Alexander VI's face slowly sank.

He knew that there were certain irreconcilable contradictions between Alexander and Caesar, and the reasons for these contradictions could not even be made public, but now they have a common purpose, and even a common enemy for the time being, so that the Pope can only find a way to The two men made up for the irreparable crack.

"That Frenchman."

The Pope had a slight headache and rubbed his forehead. The Montina Guard used the opportunity to find the missing earl and seized the blockade of the Carolingian Palace. The result was that the foreign messengers were completely disconnected from their countries. The news of the crazy price drop of commodities can not be spread immediately. After all, the manipulation of copper prices in Alexander ’s plan is only a part of it. Even later, it can only be regarded as a small part. His purpose is to take advantage of the flexibility to shake the price of commodities throughout Europe And then let the whole of Europe accept the “Gombre Price System” with Rome-Pisa Exchange as the pricing authority.

But no one would have thought that when the Carolingian Palace was blocked, such a big fish would pop up suddenly.

"Maybe we can admit his temporary visit," the pope said a little bit helplessly, "but this will definitely arouse the opposition of many people, especially at this time, I estimate that I will have to spend money for this again. I remembered the days when I almost made Borgia bankrupt in order to be Pope. "The Pope said helplessly, then frowned to look at Alexander." But what happened to Lucrezia, to know that she was a servant 'S face accused me of murdering her child's father. This is too hurtful. Didn't you tell her that everything is fake? "

"So did you tell Caesar that this is a play?"

Hearing Alexander ’s rhetorical question, the Pope hesitated a little, and then waved his hand forward: “Okay, let ’s talk about the Earl de Bowenken, what should we do with him.”

"Or I have a way," Alexander said, "but you need to help me cover this up in front of Lucrezia, and please tell Caesar that my patience is limited."

The Pope ’s feet, he slowly turned back to look at Alexander, looking at the serious expression on Alexander ’s face, the Pope paused a little, but then nodded and said: "You can rest assured I will remind him, but Alexander, you have to promise me Don't take the initiative to provoke Caesar. "

"I promise you, as long as he doesn't come to provoke me, I will not take the initiative to provoke." Alexander nodded and responded, seeing that the pope seemed to be slightly relaxed because of his promise, and Alexander could only take it lightly in his heart. Gently shook his head.

Caesar Borgia was never a strong enemy in Alexander's mind. It was not in the past, it is not now, and it will not be in the future.

Caesar was not in the Portico Palace, which at least eased the awkward situation a little, but when Lucrezia saw him, a cry of excitement resounded throughout the house, and then suddenly rushed at him .

"Alexander, where are you going, God, are you locked up and tell me what happened," Lucrecia kept crying and clutching Alexander's shoulder, as if afraid he would disappear again at any time "Those Montina Guards, that Aufrei they are looking for you everywhere, did you know that they occupied the Carolingian Palace, you can go there and join them now. "

Lucrecia spoke incoherently, speaking nervously, and then she suddenly grabbed Alexander's arm and walked out.

"Let's leave here, leave Rome quickly, we'll go back to Pisa, we'll go home," Lucrecia urged nervously as she walked, while her eyes were alertly swept to Alexander VI who was standing behind, and then Suddenly she stepped back and pressed her back against Alexander. "Relax me here. If someone wants to threaten you, use me as a hostage. They dare not hurt me."

Alexander seemed to see a trace of embarrassment flashing on the pope's face, but he felt that Lukrecia, who was leaning on him, was trembling slightly from the nervous back, and he could not help holding the woman in his arms lovingly.

"Come on, baby, nobody wants to hurt me, and they can't hurt me," Alexander whispered in Lucrecia's ear, his lips touching the woman's soft and warm earlobe, and Alexander's hand actually stretched out from behind Hold Lukrekija's waist "But now I suddenly miss you a little bit, let's find a place to spend a good afternoon alone?"

Alexander VI looked dull and looked at his daughter, whose face was flushed in the man's arms, and after a while, he said vaguely: "It's so ridiculous, my daughter looks at what you look like, but you are A Borgia. "

"But I am Estrez's mother even more," Lucrezia glanced at Alexander "and he is my daughter's father."

Listening to Lucrecia, Alexander sighed. He suddenly felt that the little woman in front of him was extremely cute. It was different from how much she used to be utilitarian and greedy for her beauty. At this time, Lucrecia only gave him the feeling that he could not tell. Love.

Alexander VI opened his mouth, and then waved his arm. He shook his head tiredly and walked toward a chair. Next, Pedro Cardron immediately helped the pope slowly and wisely, sitting down.

"Your Majesty, please allow me to retire temporarily," Alexander bowed to the Pope, and then, without waiting for the old man to agree, he pulled Lukrezia away and walked out of the door. The figures of the two had just disappeared at the door. When Lucrezia came in, he shouted, "Huh," and then the voice stopped abruptly.

Pedro Cardron secretly looked at the incomprehensible look on the pope's face until Alexander VI asked him, "Where is Caesar?"

"The Duke went to the Gilpitts Palace," Cardron answered oddly, but the Pope did not see his strange expression. "The Duke said he would visit Mrs. Mary."

"Yeah, he really should check it out," Alexander VI's voice was slightly hoarse, and a layer of moistness appeared in his turbid eyes. "Giovanni's wife must have had a bad time this time. There used to be Lukrezi. Ya is with her, and she must be very lonely now. "

Standing on the side, Cardron looked ugly, and felt unspeakable uncomfortable with Caesar, who was going to visit his widow ’s sister-in-law alone, but Caesar made it clear that he wanted to go alone, and then came to Cardron Also worried about whether Alexander will reveal his secret.

Cardron felt that his life was just a torment. When he saw the moment when Alexander and the pope appeared together, he felt that his breathing was stopped because he thought that Alexander had exchanged Giovanni's message for freedom.

Because Cardron was nervous, he didn't notice the pope whispering to himself: "It's fine, after all, it's Borgia."

When Alexander led Lucrezia from the Potico Palace, the shock he caused was much greater than he thought.

Even the first person who saw him saw the two who rode on the horse fell off the horse because of excitement.

In fact, on the way to the Portico Palace, there were already many spies sent by the nobles of the Roman city. They all knew that Caesar suddenly returned and Alexander somehow disappeared in the Portico Palace. The movement of the Naval Guard forces suddenly occupied and blocked the Carolingian Palace, which shocked Rome.

Now, Alexander appeared suddenly. All the previous descriptions of his murder in the Portico Palace, or simply vividly described as Caesar, who was mad because of Lucrezia's jealousy, first poisoned with Cantrera, and then was cruel The man who cut his throat with a sword now appears in front of the people on horseback with Lucrezia, who was rumored to have caused this **** murder. At this moment, the looks are different, stunned, and even weird. It is difficult for the best painting masters to fully express their expressions. At this moment, he has become a sentient being who has been remembering Alexander for a long time.

Along the way from the Portico Palace to the Carolingian Palace, Alexander could see many people coming from the wind, which made him secretly cautious.

The situation in Rome was indeed too confusing, especially at this time, and in order to make the whole plan look more realistic, even Aufrei only knew about the plan about the Carolingian who immediately occupied when he received a signal. That part of the palace.

Fortunately, on the way, he quickly met several hunting guards who stayed outside the Portico Palace to observe the movement. When the guards saw the sudden appearance of Alexander, they were surprised and then immediately gathered around to protect him in the middle. Alexander Just relieved a little.

"Is Estelle still okay?" Only then did Alexander whisper to Lucrezia.

"She's fine, she's in Marino Palace now, and Alofi decent people protect her ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ Lucrezia said nervously that she wanted to ask Alexander about the sudden disappearance, but the thought of his father and Alexander appeared at the same time, permeating the blood of the Borgia family's conspiracy, and she could not help but feel that there might be some unknown secrets.

"That's all right," Alexander smiled, and then said in Lukrezija's ear, "Remember how I took you away from Caesar?"

There was a hint of blush on Lucrezia's face. She leaned back and said in a low voice, "Are you going to take me away as I did?"

"No, this time I will take you away in front of all Romans."

Alexander finished his grip on the horse's abdomen and ran away in the direction of the Carolingian Palace as the hissing horse steered forward.

At the same time, in the Carolingian Palace, Alfred, who had received news of Alexander's appearance, was a little surprised at first, and then slowly stood up from the table filled with various documents.

"Go and greet adults," O'Freil said to some somewhat inexplicable Montina guards. "Bring the Count Provence, he is a big man."
