Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

Vol 6 Chapter 87: Letters from afar

The Cardinal Lord visited the Pope again, which caused a little speculation in the Vatican.

There are many cardinals in the Holy See, and at the moment, if you only need to call the title and do not need to hang the last name, but only one is well known, that is Giuliano de la Rovere.

The contradiction between Alexander VI and Old Rovere was open and undisguised, so the two were usually almost unrelated, except for the necessary sacrificial ceremonies and cardinal meeting, the two often met even in the corridor. Just say hello in accordance with the etiquette, and then go to each thing.

However, in just one month, these two Vatican big men met twice in private, which caused many people's doubts.

Alexander VI was also wondering why Old Rovere wanted to see himself. In his impression, the last meeting was not very pleasant. Although the last two did not get Ferrara, but think about driving his son out of Ferrara after all It was the daughter of old Loweley, and Alexander VI felt very depressed.

But he wouldn't think that the old Luo Weilei was to show off this time to show off. Obviously maybe the other party's heart was more aggrieved. With such a thought, the Pope's mood was slightly better.

But what Alexander VI did not expect was that the old Rovere would suddenly propose that Mahimo take over Ferrara, and at the same time he should also rule Bologna.

This gave Alexander VI a betrayed anger.

Although this idea is a bit ridiculous and funny, the Pope did think so.

Everyone has a disobedient daughter. This should have been a very similar encounter between two hostile old man, but now you suddenly told me that you want to support your girl. This is just for the old man. A huge betrayal of the natural enemy of the son-in-law.

Alexander VI looked stiffly at the old Rovere who was standing opposite, saying that they never sat down every time they met, but stood and talked like that, because the two sides did not need to sit down and talk for a long time. The second reason is to show the other party that his body is still tough and does not want to show a little weakness in front of the other party.

"Bologna and Ferrara are still under the name of the Pope's territory, but the governing powers of these two places are replaced by Bishop Mahimodu." Old Rovere did not care about the gloomy face that Alexander VI was about to drip. The proposal that Alexander Uliu brought to him before gave him a surprise when he suddenly saw the beauty that he had never noticed before. Compared with Milan, Ferrara is really too worth mentioning, if it can be Let Constantine become the Duke of Milan, and the old Rovere even considered that in order to reassure Alexander, he could support Mahimo as a cardinal as soon as possible, so that at least Alexander also has a reliable spokesperson in the Vatican, "this can take care of everyone ’s face."

The last sentence hit the painful place of Alexander VI. Everyone's face has already been almost lost. Compared with the competition of the great powers of Northern Italy, the Second Romagna War was really unremarkable, but it was such an unremarkable little The war made many people see the powerful rise of princes in a place.

Montina has almost become the real ruler of Romagna, but this is obviously not enough. Looking at the signs that Tuscany and Romagna have merged into a powerful country, Alexander VI will already feel it. disturbed.

But this is also a place that makes the pope feel strange. He does not understand why the old Luo Weilei, who should also see this threat, ignored this matter, is it because his daughter is a true wife of Alexander?

Alexander VI did n’t believe that the old Luo Weilei would trust someone because his partner was his own son-in-law, otherwise he would n’t let his son play Montina, and eventually his cousin was ordered by his daughter. light.

There must be a conspiracy in it. Alexander VI was convinced of this, so he did not object to the proposal made by Old Rovere, but delayed it temporarily with careful consideration.

Then the Pope immediately sent people to inquire everywhere, and soon discovered that a Moor had once entered the hilltop villa of Old Rovere.

"Gombre."

Alexander VI realized the shadow of Alexander behind Old Rovere ’s abnormal behavior, but he did n’t know what price Alexander had offered for a while, which actually made Old Rovere so happy.

"Maybe you should summon the bishop again."

Nomelo's proposal made Alexander VI thoughtful, but he quickly rejected the proposal.

"No, Nomelo, you have to admit that if I did this, I would really fall into the trap of the little bastard. He should have told the old man to say what he should say. The performance in front of me, I do n’t want the little **** to get what he wants so easily. "

Nomelo shook his head slightly without traces. He was a staff member and secretary, as long as he was responsible for putting forward his own suggestions. As for whether to listen or not, it was the Pope's own business.

It's just that Alexander VI didn't hear the slightly helpless mumbling of Nomelo's resignation: "These Borgias ..."

The Pope made a good guess. At this time, Mahimo was indeed "ready to go". According to the instructions given to him by Alexander, the Bishop Master prepared a very infectious speech for himself. Those who he confidently heard will definitely be he Persuasive.

It was just that he was so well-prepared that he did not work and suffered setbacks. With the decree of the Pope, Mahimo was appointed as the bishop of the Holy See, and he was thrown into the carriage before he understood what happened Escorted by a team of guards, they left the Vatican and Rome.

According to the Pope ’s order, Mahimo had to visit at least 15 parishes as a special envoy of the Vatican. According to the itinerary, he had to return to the Vatican in the next century.

Uliu was obviously disturbed by the pope's sudden move. He wrote letters to Alexander, Barenti and Lucrezia to report the sudden change, and quickly moved into Rome.

In addition to the hilltop villas of Old Rovere, Uliou's figures have appeared in the homes of some Rome and Vatican dignitaries, and those dignitaries have different attitudes towards the former court official of Montina and the court chief of the Duke of Pisa. Enthusiastic, some were indifferent and indifferent, but in any case, he finally heard about the new errands of Mahimo through various channels.

The final letter to him was the Pope's personal secretary Nomelo.

In Nomelo's residence behind Pacini Meche Square, Uliou saw the Pope's secretary who had been busy all day and had to go home to rest.

Compared with the children of Alexander VI, Nomelo, who was also brought up by the Pope, was not so lucky. Just when the children of the Borgia family lived in a luxury and desperate life, Nomelo had already He started to help the Pope early in his work. Although this gave him the same trust and closeness as Caesar or Giovanni in front of the Pope, many times Nomelo even forgot his own life.

Seeing Uliu, Nomelo was somewhat jealous.

In Nomelo's view, Uliu is undoubtedly lucky, because his master and he are not only servants, but more friends.

He and the pope, in addition to being masters and servants, were also fathers and sons, which sounded closer, but Nomelo did not think so.

He knew the importance of this Moorish man near Alexander. Sometimes Nomelo even wanted to suggest that the Pope should start with this Moorish man. He wanted to have many secrets about Alexander in his stomach. Come out, it should be very useful.

However, Nomelo finally did not speak out this idea. This was not because he was kind, but he knew that the pope himself must understand this matter as much as he did. Since the pope himself did not give such an order, then if he Putting forward this proposal hastily may be counterproductive.

Nomelo was a smart man. He knew what he should do and shouldn't do. It was because of this that he could spend an unharmed time with Alexander VI for so many years under the twins of Giovanni and Caesar.

"Master Secretary, do you mean His Majesty the Pope is very dissatisfied with this matter?" Uliu asked, tentatively. "Can you speak in more detail?"

"Not dissatisfied, but angry," Nomelo corrected Uliou's statement. "Your Majesty felt betrayed. You must know that His Majesty has always regarded your master as his own child, but this son has betrayed. He even encouraged his daughter to rebel with his father, which was too disappointing. "

As the secretary said, she shook her head with emotion, so that the Moors could not help but saw some teeth tickling.

"So what does your majesty mean?" Uliu asked a little helplessly, at this time he had already guessed what to say next.

"Can you tell me what the Earl Montina promised to the Cardinal?" Nomelo only asked the question he was most interested in at this time. "Perhaps knowing this, your majesty will feel better." "

Of course, could it be better? At that time he also knew how to bargain. Uliu muttered secretly in his heart, but there was always a cautious and respectful expression on his face: "This is what my master thinks he can help Cardinal Constantine's son to win the crown of the Duke of Milan."

Nomelo's expression was awkward. He was no more surprised than Old Rovere when he heard this suggestion. After all, this was much less affected by Old Rovere because of his own interests, but even so. Can't help but be surprised by Alexander's unexpected idea.

"Do you think your master can do this?" Nomelo asked carefully after a while, he did not think that Alexander was making a random promise, on the contrary, he even thought it was really after careful consideration. An exquisite idea.

But a good idea may not be realized. The throne of the Duke of Milan is not so easy to sit on, even if it is already, it may not be able to sit firmly.

Ludviko Sforza is undoubtedly a stark example.

As for Alexander, who promised to put Constantine on the Duke of Milan, Nomelo thought he might have some other support.

But this time Uliu didn't plan to say anything to him again. He said enough. Now it's time to return.

Nomelo, who clearly saw Uliu ’s attitude, did not disappoint the Moors, and he quickly gave Uliu an accurate reply: "His Majesty the Pope meant that the Earl of Lords would personally negotiate with him. His Majesty believed Bishop Mahimodu is not enough to be an agent of Lord Earl, not to mention that the Bishops now seem to have the support of the Cardinal, which is absolutely undesirable to His Majesty. "

At this time, Uliu finally understood what happened.

Alexander VI is a man who can think about everything, even if something has not happened, he often has been able to speculate in advance.

Old Rovere ’s support for Mahimo ’s move to Ferrara will undoubtedly lay the foundation for the establishment of a strong alliance with him after one day when Mahmo becomes a cardinal. Of course, I don't want to see this situation, so he will never let the old Luo Weilei achieve his goal.

In addition, the Pope was really curious about what made Old Rovere give up his bad feelings towards the wicked son-in-law and help him.

Now that he knew the answer, Nomelo thought it might be better not to know.

Because he already vaguely felt that perhaps it sounded a little whimsical with the knowledge of Alexander, but if he carefully considered and possible suggestions, there might be another open battle between the pope and the cardinal.

All have sons, don't they all be elders, can they be your Duke of Milan?

Nomelo shook his head secretly and threw this ridiculous conjecture behind his head, and then he leaned forward slightly and said to Uliu: "If you have the opportunity to see the bishop, please tell him that your majesty still holds him I am very much expected to be impressed by His Majesty ’s due diligence in Florence, so if possible he should clearly know who will be on his side in the future. "

Uliu bowed silently. He knew that Nomelo's words seemed to be talking about Mahimo, but in fact the meaning of these words was completely suggesting Alexander.

But even Uliu did not know what Alexander was thinking at this time.

Alexander only cares about one thing today.

In early September, the war that finally broke out after a short confrontation was historically regarded as the beginning of the second phase of the Italian War, and then there will be a third phase, a fourth phase, etc., so that this war will be intermittent The continuation of the nearly 60 years, almost drained the blood of two or three generations of Europeans.

The French who occupied Naples were very concerned about the war in the north. After all, for them, if Louis XII failed, it meant that they had become lonely troops far south of Italy, and for Charler who knew the truth, the north The battle situation is even more important, because he must also consider the threat of the Aragonese army that may appear at any time.

And for this war, Alexander was more or less happy.

There can be no chaos without war, no disorder without chaos, and no chance without disorder.

How many heroes created by the so-called current situation rise rapidly in this disorderly chaotic world, and quickly fall like a meteor.

But Alexander did not think he would belong to one of them. This was not because he was able to gain insight into the arrogance of the future, nor was he self-righteous about what he had achieved, but because he knew exactly what he wanted.

Or that Alexander knew what he was going to do from the beginning.

A chaotic Europe where no one can destroy this chaos is what Alexander wants to see most.

When everyone's eyes were concentrated in the interior of Europe, even when the dangerous couple far away on the Iberian Peninsula were attracted by the fruits of Europe, Alexander's purpose was almost achieved.

The time has come to September, which makes Alexander vaguely anxious. In the feast that engulfed the Fugger family, he did not hesitate to distribute the huge benefits to the Venetians, just to get enough in the shortest time to use For the wealth that came to turn around, for how much Alexander he lost, he was even reluctant to think about it. After all, it was a number that would feel painful to think about.

But he never regretted that decision, because he knew exactly what he would get in return.

To this end, he not only invested a huge amount of capital, but also worked hard during this time to make various preparations for future plans.

Stretching across Romagna, expedition to the Balkans, everything is for that plan, everything is for that moment!

On the first Sunday of September, Alexander accompanied Rusha into the Billy Shelly Church to worship.

Just a few days ago, the wife of the Pope ’s youngest son Jeffrey Xia Sang sent a harshly worded protest letter. It showed a strong suspicion. At the end of the letter, Xia San warned that the Naples court must return Billy Shelley's sovereignty, otherwise she would sue the "horrible" act of aggression before the Holy See.

Responding to Xia Sang ’s anger, Alexander did not immediately respond, but instead wrote to her pope ’s father-in-law and asked the Holy See to send a special envoy to Billy Shelley to officially recognize the identity of Queen Reza ’s regent.

"Do you think the Pope will answer your request?" Walking on the stone road leading to the church, Ruosha tilted her head to look at Alexander, who seemed to be full of concern.

"I don't think it's a problem." Alexander nodded.

"Why are you so sure, because you are the father of the pope's granddaughter?" Luo Sha asked again.

"Ah, maybe ..." Alexander responded absently.

Just as his voice fell, a hurried footsteps came from behind, and there were people in the crowd shouting angrily: "Master, Lord Earl!"

Alexander stopped and turned his head ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ saw a hunting guard hurried over with a man who looked like a foreigner.

The man came to Alexander and hurriedly saluted, and then respectfully handed a tightly sealed small leather bag to him: "Sir, I'm sent by Lord Matthews Thiago, he asked me to send this . "

Tiego!

Alexander's heart surged in an instant!

Regardless of the man who took the purse from the man's hand on the street and picked up the closed secret line, he took out a letter from the inside.

There was only one sentence in the letter.

"Dear Master, according to your instructions, I have contacted Vasco da Gama and signed a contract. Your plan was successful! Your loyal Matthews Thiego."
