Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

Vol 6 Chapter 28: Get on the boat, Medici!

To allow Mahimo to enter the Vatican, this request did not surprise Old Rovere. On the contrary, when he heard this condition, Old Rovere also glanced at Alexander slightly.

Fostering an agent in the Vatican will push this person to a higher position if possible. This is something almost all famous families have done or are doing.

In this kind of behavior, some families will look for a high-ranking person in the Vatican to form an alliance, while others with wrists will simply push members of their own family to be more secure.

Whether it is Alexander VI or Old Rovere, or their uncle, these families can be said to be the huge family that controls the fate of the Vatican, and the same is true of the Medici family. These important family of doormen formally monopolized Vatican The supreme power has in turn become a decisive force in the world of Christ.

Now Alexander is obviously walking along this road too. Old Rovere does not know how far he can go, but as long as he thinks about his extraordinary performance so far, old Rovere does not doubt that this son-in-law may become the future Vatican. Emerging family.

Thinking of this, Old Rovere ’s mood was somewhat complicated. At this time, he could not tell whether it was a mistake to marry his daughter to this young man, but he knew clearly that Barendi was with this young man, and he seemed to be destined all his life. Not too calm.

However, the second condition proposed by Alexander made the old Luo Weilei slightly turbulent.

He knew that the meeting that Alexander said was not just a simple party dinner, or to say hello. Since he made the meeting with the Medici family as a request for him, then he must be between the Medici family. There is a very formal appointment, perhaps it also involves what conditions or suggestions to put forward.

Giovanni de Medici and Giulio de Medici, the brothers and brothers, are now lobbying everywhere in Rome. They are trying to persuade the Vatican dignitaries to support their recapture of Florence. For this pair of brothers, they almost took their hands. All of his savings were spent on meeting the Roman dignitaries, especially the bribe to Pope Alexander VI, which made the brothers even a bit unable to make ends meet.

In addition to Alexander VI, another focus of the Medici brothers is the old Rovere.

Whether it is in the Vatican or as the actual ruler of Genoa, the Rovere family has a sufficient right to speak, which makes the Medici brothers cannot easily give up the opportunity to have a good relationship with the Rovere family. In fact, when it was discovered that Alexander VI seemed After little interest in helping them return to Florence, the Medici brothers have shifted their focus to the old Rovere.

They insisted that this high-weight cardinal should be their important Olympic aid in the Vatican.

Now Alexander proposes to meet the Medici brothers, as if he had openly reached into Old Rovere ’s garden to pick fruits. After all, in the view of Old Rovere, the Medit brothers who always offered generous benefits to him were undoubtedly a kind of The cash cow in his own garden.

And what made Old Rovere more concerned was what Alexander had just done in Florence not long ago.

Regarding Alexander's announcement that Florence was under the rule of his daughter Estres, the whole of Rome was quite shocked, but he didn't wait for the Roman nobles to take the opportunity to initiate various troubles to Alexander, he suddenly "missing" "And then there was the mutiny of the Montina Guards. The whole incident changed so quickly that many people had no time to react, and the movement of the Montina Guards to wash the Carolingian Palace completely scared them.

Thinking about it now, Old Rovere suddenly discovered that all of this seemed to have some kind of unclear connection. It seemed that not only the mysterious disappearance of Alexandria caused the Romans to miss the opportunity to question him, and then the brutal move of the Montina Guard It also completely scared the Romans, so that no one dared to raise any doubts and dissatisfaction about Florence with him.

This timing, this means, is too good to grasp.

Old Rovere looked deeply at Alexander, but the only regret was that Estrez was not the daughter of him and Barenti, otherwise Old Rovere felt that he might stand up for this son-in-law, a dazzling wrist Applause applauded.

Alexander did n’t know if the old man was thinking about whether he would come to a round of business blows with him. Seeing the old Luo Weilei ’s face was uncertain, he knew that the old man was calculating whether his condition was cost-effective, but he was not worried. Old Rovere will refuse, because he knows that the conditions he gives are definitely those that are difficult to refuse.

Sure enough, Luo Weilei nodded slightly after thinking for a while and agreed to the exchange condition proposed by Alexander, and before Alexander left, he did not forget to remind his son-in-law: "Do n’t forget that you promised that all will be attributed to Barendi's name. under."

"Of course dad, this is a gift I gave to Barendi to thank her for her support and love for me since this time."

Alexander's affectionate name made Old Rovere a little unaccustomed, and Constantine next to him had a look of disgust on his face.

But Alexander didn't care what the Rovere family thought of him. He knew that whether he was in the Borgia or Rovere house now is the kind of sweet and sour food that looks and smells particularly flattering, So at this time, he also has some privileges that can be arrogant.

The meeting with the Medici family was agreed at the Marino Palace. Alexander showed his tough side to the brothers unabashedly. After all, the Medici family is in a state of disappointment. Although it is still small, it is already in Italy. The up-and-coming "Gumbre family" is just ascending.

At this time, it is appropriate to show the strong side, not only to occupy a greater advantage in future negotiations, but also to completely conform to his current identity, even to appease the hearts of the Medici brothers, otherwise he must do so, otherwise If the party that has the advantage of all parties seems to be cautious and humble, the scruples will make the brother feel inexplicably disturbed.

As for saying that you could have shown support and friendliness when the Medici family was down, so as to get the goodwill and friendship of the Medici family, Alexander did have such a plan before, and he did have the right relationship with him last time. When the brothers met, they released enough goodwill. After all, the people of the Medici family are much more kind than his two elders. They reached out and helped them when they were the most difficult. The future return must be very good. Rich.

It is just that with the defense of the situation and the growth of Alexander ’s own strength, he now does not care much about this kind of simple favors and rewards. On the contrary, the Medici family has gradually become part of Alexander ’s plan, or in his In his mind, the Medici family has changed from the object of possible alliance to the chess piece he used to drive, and he also believes that although there is no need to use friendship and affection to draw this family, there are enough benefits to make them future. The relationship has become more stable. After all, friendship and affection are always used up, and the involvement of interests will definitely make the fragile alliance unbreakable.

Count Carol de Bowwicken was locked in a separate turret in the north wing of the Palace of Marino. Alexander was a bit suspicious that this was deliberately arranged by Lucrezia, because the turret in the north wing was not only sultry and airy, but also There is also evening light, and staying there for a day like this must be enough for the count.

Lucrezia obviously didn't like the count very much. This should obviously be influenced by her father. Alexander VI was very angry about the count of Provence who came to Rome secretly but did not notify him. He thought it was Louis X. The second disapproval of him also made the pope calm down a little bit overjoyed by the alliance with the French.

Lucrezia can fight against her family for Alexander, but if she is dealing with outsiders, then she will immediately become a Borgia who only recognizes the relatives and does not ask the right and wrong, so she is rude to make the count It was sent to the turret of the North Wing to get the sun.

Of course, it ’s clear to Alexander, a little man like Lucrezia, but this will only make him feel that his woman is cute without blaming him. Speaking of that, he still does n’t know whether he will compete with the Earl of Provence in the future battlefield , So he did n’t mind letting the earl lose in his turret first.

Alexander did not go to see Count Provence. He knew almost everything he should have known. He even knew why Louis XII would send the Count rather than others to negotiate with Old Rovere at this time, because Old Rovere hosted in France. The parish is just near Nice, and it is clear that the prince wanted the count to convince him as much as possible by using his personal relationship with Old Rovere.

However, it can also be seen that Louis XII is indeed determined to win for Milan, otherwise he will not even use this point of careful thinking.

It was a little late when Alexander returned to Marino Palace, but when he walked to the front of the Marino Palace before the renovation and the wider steps, he saw Lukrezi standing on the top step waiting for him Ya.

Looking at Lucrezia, who was holding her baby and looking down, Alexander stopped and looked up, and then he took the steps and walked towards the mother and daughter step by step, when he finally came to Lucrezia While standing in front of him, Alexander stopped, and then carefully embraced the mother and daughter in their arms.

"I'm really afraid that too hard will scare our daughter. You know how much I miss you in 2 days." Alexander said softly in the ear of Lucrezia, although it was acting, but in the underground cell The two days made Alexander really feel the thoughts of his family, thinking that they were worrying about their own safety, and Alexander wanted to rush out to comfort them more than once.

"My father, actually imprisoned you." Lucrezia suddenly asked in a very low voice, her expression was as tense as possible, which was completely different from when she was in Portico Palace. Although Lucrezia looks terrified, she is still more of an arrogance in front of her father and brother. It seems that her family members have lost their temper because of the dispute of will, but now her face is showing real fear. Uneasy, this made Alexander a little stunned, and then understood.

All of Lucrezia ’s previous work was just for others, or simply for the Borgia and her sons. She deliberately pretended to be ignorant, as if she always thought everything was just a disagreement between family members. As soon as he came, at least her father and son would not completely turn their face in front of her.

In fact, Lucrezia clearly knew that her father and brother were really likely to poison Alexander, and it was precisely because of this fear that she still seemed to be absent-minded after the Lipotiko Palace.

"You really can act." Alexander sighed and put Lucrezia in his arms. At this time, he had to admit that the people of the Pogia family were indeed not fuel-efficient lamps, even if he always thought Lucrezia, who is cute but always ignorant, actually has another side hidden under her always innocent smile. "But rest assured, your father will not harm me."

Seeing that Lucrezia finally let go of his heart, Alexander smiled softly, and of course he would not let her hear the next sentence secretly in his heart: "As long as he can give him enough benefits."

The Marino Palace is being renovated, or it should be said that it is more appropriate to push down and rebuild.

In addition to the main hall building with the front hall, all buildings on both sides of the entire Marino Palace are undergoing major renovations.

The hall looked messy, full of furniture, decorations, tapestries, armor, weapons, and messy things.

One of the corners was tightly covered with a thick blanket, but the slightly dusty skirt corners exposed from under the blanket, Alexander speculated that those things should have been moved out of Sophia's room.

This made Alexander couldn't help but wonder how much hatred Rusha had with Sophia, even her things were unwilling to see, which also made him a little worried whether Rusha could abandon the future when opening up the Balkan market. The inexplicable resentment between Sophia is focused on the big picture.

Although it was a little confusing, after receiving the report of the entourage who rushed back in advance, Lucrezia had sent someone to clean up a room as soon as possible. Although it was a little confusing, meeting the guests here was barely passable.

Here came Julio de Medici. As the current head of the Medici family, his brother Giovanni de Medici chose to show up temporarily.

Alexander could understand Giovanni de Medici ’s thoughts. After all, Giovanni would have to be more cautious because he did n’t know the purpose of this meeting, especially since they wanted to come. After bowing his head to his daughter to recognize the Lord, the Medici brothers must have been very dissatisfied with this, and even extremely angry.

When Julio entered the Marino Palace, he looked at the messy surroundings, but there was something strange in the look. He ignored the falling dust and stroked gently on some furniture and the marble handrails of the stairs. When the famous architect of the small prayer hall of the Vatican was also built, there was a hint of sadness in Julio's expression.

Alexander stood in the middle of the room and saw Julio step forward when he was brought in by a servant, then gestured slightly to Lucrezia who was standing beside him.

Lucrezia walked forward, she bowed her salute and took Julio's hand to kiss gently: "Welcome to you, respected Archbishop."

Julio cautiously indicated to Lukreziya that she should not be too polite, and at the same time his eyes had not turned away from Alexander's face.

The Medici brothers were deeply wary of Alexander ’s sudden appointment, especially Julio. He would not forget that he met Alexander outside Florence last year. At that time, Alexander made him feel that he saw it. Hope, but now looking at Estelles, who was standing on the side and was sleepy in the arms of the maid, Julio's mood became incomprehensible.

"Count, you probably don't know, this Marino Palace was almost bought by our family before," Julio looked at the room. "But now it seems that it should have a more suitable owner."

"If we can successfully reach an agreement before, I think the Medicis will soon be able to buy a palace that is more majestic and magnificent than the Marino Palace," Alexander smiled first, and then looked serious. "I invite you to come Make a suggestion to the Medicis. "

Alexander did not want to waste time. He had been delayed for too long. After returning from the Balkans, he had been preparing for the upcoming French invasion, but no one knew that his mind had actually flown far away. , To be precise, has flew to the Iberian Peninsula on the Atlantic Ocean.

"Suggestion?" Julio glanced at Estrels again. He had to admit that it was a pretty little girl, but the kid robbed them of the site run by the Medici family for generations. Julio looked at Estrez's complex look.

"My daughter is the co-owner of Florence, this is what the Florentines have admitted ..."

"It was those cowards who betrayed Florence, and the Earl you said that the co-owner is unacceptable," Julio interrupted Alexander angrily, seeing the disturbing look in the calm of Alexander's eyes, Julio couldn't help it. I remembered the atrocities committed by the Montina Guards in the Carolingian Palace, but he still straightened his waist and firmly said, "Count, I know you have a strong army, this is not comparable to the current Medici family. Yes, but Florence is the pride of our family. From the time of my great-grandfather Comoros de Medici, every generation of our family has contributed everything to Florence, including my uncle and father. They used My life has defended this city that belongs to Medici, so please forgive me for not accepting any suggestions from you, because this is an insult to my family's ancestors. "

Julio finished proudly and lifted the red thin cloak on his body to leave. He knew that his actions obviously completely offended the now hot and powerful person, but as he said, the pride of the Medici family did not allow him Bow your head.

Looking at Julio, who seemed to be quite dead, Alexander began to doubt how people outside guessed and described his Marino Palace.

Could it be more terrifying than the creepy religious trials on the Iberian Peninsula?

Alexander threw these cranky thoughts aside ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ gave Julio a smile of self-confidence and kindness: "Archbishop, I suggest you still listen to my advice first, maybe you will find that some things are not necessarily the same What you think is so bad. "

Julio nodded slowly, and he knew he could not offend this person too hard. After all, he could conquer the Carolingian Palace and even kill people there.

"You can get back to Florence again."

In a word, Alexander surprised everyone in the room except Estres, and even the maid holding the Duchess showed a surprised look.

Julio was stunned for a moment, but he quickly sobered up and looked at Alexander with caution: "Count, what do you want our Medicis to do?"

"I can give Florence to you, but ..." Alexander said slowly but very powerfully, "I want you to support my daughter as the Duke of Romagna."
