Normezi sat quietly in the chair and listened to Alexander's advice. When he was at John Abbey, he already knew that Alexander should have a purpose to survive, and this purpose is probably to deal with the Aragonese.

But Normezi didn't care about this. When the Aragonese assassinated the queen, the cooperation between him and Ferdinand actually meant that it had broken down. Obviously the Aragonese tried to plant the queen's death on him. He may even want to use this as an excuse to send troops to Naples, and by then Normezi was already certain that they would never fulfill their promises as promised to him.

Did Ferdinand do these things? Normezi thinks this is a fact that is obvious without doubt. In fact, as long as Gonzalo was the commander of the Aragonese reinforcements before, he could know that he was rude and unreasonable. How arrogant and arrogant the Aragonese are, but these are nothing, and what really makes Normezi worry is that Ferdinand may even take the opportunity to destroy him in order to kill him.

Precisely because of this, when Alexander revealed to him the intention to deal with Ferdinand together at St. John ’s Abbey, Normezi agreed without hesitation, because for him it is now possible to save him from the future The only way to be killed by the Aragonese is to cooperate with the person in front of you.

It's just that Normezi is still somewhat uncomfortable. When he thinks of the strength of the Aragonese army, he is not confident that the Naples army can confront Ferdinand.

"Count, do you want me to be a messenger to see Louis of France?" Normezi murmured before asking. "Don't forget me, but your enemy. Are you not afraid that I will take the opportunity to betray you?"

Alexander shook his head slightly, but no one knew whether his action was in favor or against Normezi's words, but Aurei, who was on the side, noticed something very interesting in the count's look.

"If you really betrayed me, then I can only pay for my stupidity, but if you think it is worth it, you can do it, for example, you can turn to the French, but I want to remind you in advance not to forget My uncle Count Modillo has a very close relationship with the French. If you think that in the eyes of the French, you can now compare with Modillo, who is the chief minister, then you can do so. "

Normezzi's face was angry, and he seemed to be irritated by Alexander's contempt, but he finally endured it.

Normezi stood up and walked slowly around the chair. He seemed to be thinking of Alexander ’s suggestion. He just sat around again after looking around. Looking at Alexander, he offered the condition: “I can promise you, but you must guarantee Release me and my family, and you know that these things have nothing to do with these people. I want Alfred to pardon them publicly in the name of the regent. "

Alexander thought about it and then nodded and agreed, those people were not hostages, and today Naples is really not suitable for the killing, and it is because of this that Alexander will acquiesce Leoford to make those seemingly stupid moves. Yes, for him, Leoford was not so much catching the small citizens who made rumors everywhere. It was better to say that among the Neapolitans, an image of Rusha and the royal family was gradually established.

But this should not be too anxious right now. Frederick and his son are still here, and Alfred is still the husband of Zuosha's name. It will take some time for people to gradually recognize Zuosha's inheritance.

Only now it seems that what they lack is time.

According to reliable information, after the unexpectedly slow preparation of the French fleet, with the Louis battalion sending troops from Nice, they finally made all the preparations.

How long will the French arrive in Naples, a few days or a week?

The Neapolitans had a lot of discussion and panic.

But Alexander knew that things shouldn't be so bad for a while, because the attitude of a key figure that no one had thought of before determined the French's next move.

After negotiating some of the trivial matters for arranging Normez ’s departure was given to Aufrei, and Alexander returned to the Duylan Palace where he is now temporarily lending.

Although it was already afternoon, Mrs. George Anne had n’t gotten up. In fact, it was because she was too late to hang out with a gardener she liked last night, so that after the morning light was already bright, Alexander could still hear them. The high and low sounds of people's minds.

Alexander suspected that Mrs. George Anne did this just to vent her loneliness. Speaking of this lady ’s life is undoubtedly a tragedy. Her life seems to be controlled by others at all times of her life, probably only this thorough Only when she indulges can she forget everything outside her body.

And Alexander guessed that George Anne seemed to be deliberately not wanting to see him. After all, although she may not have any feelings for the child who was just sent away after birth, as long as he was seen in front of himself in the name of Qiao Ling every day, George Mrs. Anne will always be stimulated.

Thinking of Alexander returning to his room in this way, it happened that this was the room he had lived in before, but this reminded him of the situation of living here with Sophia.

I do n’t know what happened to Sophia. This thought made Alexander a little irritable. Speaking of Lucrezia, he was with him during her pregnancy, but Sophia could only face it by herself. Guilt, but now the situation in Italy makes him unable to withdraw from his company with Sophia, and according to his assumptions, it may take a long time for this tension to be alleviated.

A servant man followed Schell, and Alexander had seen him before and was waiting outside.

The man looked familiar, and after a little recognition of Alexander, he recognized him as a close follower of old Rowley.

"Master Cardinal ordered me to send you a letter," the man said, tearing open his clothes, carefully pulling out several sheets of paper from different layers and sending them to Alexander.

In the end the man handed a dagger with a biblical adage engraved on the handle of his hand to Alexander.

Looking at the admonition, Alexander immediately found the cipher index of the letter from the corresponding Bible space in the room, and then began to read it bit by bit.

This letter was an answer from Old Rovere to Alexander. When he saw the first sentence, "If nothing goes wrong, your Mahimo will soon wear the cardinal's red hat." Alexander couldn't help but shook his fist in excitement.

Let Mahimo enter the Vatican, this was Alexander ’s plan for a long time. Now think about it. Even when they were still in Naples, the plan had already begun, but at that time, Alexander had no specific direction. So although from then on it was intentionally arranged for Mahimo to gradually enter the upper level of Naples, everything was still so slim.

Now, everything is clear.

Mahimo will become the cardinal, and then it will take him a few years or more to stabilize his position in the Vatican, while Alexander can borrow Mahmo ’s growing influence in the Holy See to continue his now almost whimsical. s plan.

In addition to the matter about Mahimo, the old Rovere's letter is really about the French.

The increasingly close connection between Alexander VI and Louis XII has caused the old Rovere to be vigilant. More importantly, he noticed that Alexander VI seemed to be eager to organize an army for Caesar, which made the old Rovere realize the difference. Something ordinary.

"Obviously, the Pope ’s ambitions for Romagna have been completely unmasked. He has repeatedly acknowledged his interest in the title of Duke of Romagna in public, and he has stated more than once if he cannot obtain it by peaceful means This avatar, then he will step on all the corpses of his enemies trying to stop him from going to the crown of throne. "

Although the content of Old Rovere ’s letter was somewhat alarmist, Alexander did not feel very surprised. He was more aware of Caesar ’s ambitions for Romagna than Old Rovere or even Caesar himself. At this time, Caesar was actually not too much. After being rampant, his desire for the Duke of Romagna only remained in the interest of this title. Only after the French invasion, as he took the opportunity to conquer those regions one by one, did his ambition become more aggressive. In terms of **** and possessiveness, Caesar has even been dissatisfied with the title of Duke of Romagna. His eyes will turn to Tuscany and even Lombardy. It is also his unsatisfactory behavior and the accident of Alexander VI His death caused him to lose his strong trust, and then he gradually lost the favor of Louis XII.

But those things are a long time away, and Alexander doesn't think those things will happen.

"I believe that you are ready for the French invasion again, the French fleet will start soon, but they will not get any help from Genoa, nor can they stop for supplies in Genoa, which means that because only If you can get supplies in some small ports, their journey will inevitably be delayed, but I would like to remind you here that if the French advance along the coast and they do not get enough replenishment along the way, then Pisa will undoubtedly It will be a very good supply place on their way. "

Seeing this paragraph in the letter, Alexander paused, but he did not expect that Old Rovere would take the initiative to remind him of this, although he had already been prepared, but as long as he thought about being Barenti ’s father, Old Rovere was in the letter. To remind him of Pisa or Lucrezia's safety, Alexander felt more deeply about the old Rovere in his heart.

There is no doubt that this person is a real conspirator, a cold person who can cooperate with any enemy for power, and can sacrifice even the closest person without hesitation!

Compared with the old Luo Weilei, Alexander VI is more lovely, at least in his mind, the home talent is the first, and the old Luo Weilei's mind is always power.

"I can't tolerate the French now," Alexander was a little surprised to see this paragraph. In his impression, Old Rovere had always been very calm. Even when he was angered, he would not be emotional because of anger. This made him somewhat doubtful that Old Rovere was acting, but he continued to watch. "Louis is undoubtedly more suspicious than Charlie, a stingy and narrow-minded person. He hopes that what appears in the Vatican is not a collaborator, but an obedient person. The servant of the Borgia family can obviously meet his requirements in this respect, but I am destined to do it. So the French must set aside my search for other helpers in the Holy See. This is not for me personally. What is it, but Louis ’ambition made me very uneasy. He obviously did n’t just want to inherit Charlie ’s claim to Naples, but wanted to conquer all city-states, including the Vatican, and I did n’t want to see such a result, let alone one day. Pope Avignon, the French. "

Seeing this, Alexander finally couldn't help but smiled. At that time, he somewhat understood why he was the biggest ex-Leader, but later became the craziest anti-French. This made Alexander think of Milan. Ludvik, probably the kind of betrayal by someone he trusts, is the most irritating stimulus that led to the change of these two people.

Old Rovere is eager to become a pope, but his greater ambition is to unify the whole of Italy!

Even if he hadn't realized this yet, he did, as the letter said, could not tolerate Avignon, who turned the Vatican into a French, and he could not tolerate one day he would be a pope who admired the French.

"The Pope of God of War." Alexander whispered to himself, and he remembered the famous nickname of Old Rovere. Now no one calls him that, but in the future, even when he is still alive, this title will become famous throughout Europa. .

It is out of this kind of thought, even if it is for the purpose of obstructing the French little, Old Rovere reminded Alexander to protect his lover and his daughter's pizza.

"Barrendi, you really have a good father." Alexander shook his head with emotion. After comparing it, he still preferred the pope more, but think about the one who is said to have a leg with his mother. Mountain, he could not help shaking his head again.

There are many things written in Old Rovere ’s secret letter, and any one of them is a big deal, especially in the attitude towards the French. Although the relationship between the Rovere family and the French has been very cold, but like the old Rovere Directly confessing the hostility to Louis XII, and even expressing an attitude of aligning with the French enemy, once leaked, it caused uproar after all.

So after reading it, Alexander immediately burned the secret letter and looked at the ashes falling on the ground. Alexander couldn't help but secretly figure out how much old Luo Weilei could believe.

This is undoubtedly opposed to the attitude of the French. The key is what he will do in the future, whether he spares no effort or stands by, and then waits until the fire is almost gone before picking up the cheap.

Alexander prefers that he will choose the latter, which is related to his current status in addition to being profitable.

One day if you do n’t become a pope, you ca n’t let yourself be the target of other people ’s arrogance, let alone fight against a behemoth like France.

Thinking of this, Alexander could already guess what the old Rovere would do next.

Obviously, at least at the beginning, do n’t expect the support of the Rovere family. Even in the letter, the old Rovere kept reminding Alexander to be careful not to anger the French completely, but at the same time, the cardinal again mentioned about the emperor. There was a matter of replacing the Fugel family as a mint, and in the letter Old Rovere showed enough attention to this, which made Alexander speculate that maybe Old Rovere was planning to reach an agreement with Emperor Maximian through this matter. .

"It's really complicated."

Some of Alexander, who had a headache, walked to the window and sat down to look out of his mind. Old Rovere would not think that he was considering contacting the French at this time, nor would he think that he might be a resistance to the French army. The Aragonese army will collaborate with the French to conquer Naples.

Of course, France and Aragon are not true allies. In fact, soon after capturing Naples, Ferdinand took the opportunity to wage war through disputes with the French in some disputed areas, and then drove out the French to completely monopolize Naples.

So what if this battle for Naples happened ahead of time?

While thinking about it, Alexander went to the table and picked up the pen to start writing on the paper. Gradually, his thoughts became clear and clear. At the same time, there was some vagueness about the good use of this piece of Normezi before the last point. I'm sure in my heart.

"Dear Count Julipe, it seems that we have underestimated your role before." Alexander burned the messy paper, and then he shook his hand bell and called in Shere who had been waiting outside.

Sheer looked at the Earl Lord nervously. What he thought about this afternoon was how he would be wiped out. "Beheaded" or "hanged on a crooked neck tree." Sheer felt that his destiny was Doomed.

After all, I saw something that I really should n’t see, which made Schell even wonder how Busako, who has now become the commander of the New Balkan Regiment, survived these years.

Looking at the bodyguard who seemed to be in a state of awkwardness, Alexander said, "Go and ask the marshal, Normezi, how well he is preparing."

"Yes, sir." Shelle answered, but didn't move. He looked slightly at Alexander's look from under the raised brim, and then immediately looked at the copper ornaments on the table.

Speaking before, Schell did n’t like this kind of quirky hat for the Balkan soldiers. Compared with the Balkans ’pointed peaked hats, this kind of hat with only front and back cuffs is really not used to it, but now he is. I discovered one of the benefits of this hat, that is, you can peek at the old man's face.

"Is there anything else?" Alexander glanced at Sher standing still.

"That man, I haven't served you long, but I am still very loyal. I have stood guard for Her Royal Highness Alexandra, I have sent whistle for Her Royal Highness, I ..."

"So who do you want to see?"

"Ah? No, I don't see anyone. I just want to ask the old man, how are you going to treat me?" Shearer asked, "I know I saw something I shouldn't see. If the red soldering iron pokes in my mouth, I still have to dig out my tongue directly, or if you like to simply pull me into the yard to shoot or kill my head ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ I only ask you to give it to me I am happy. "

Alexander silently watched Sher pause, and then said slowly: "Sher, you are a very smart person. Speaking of the Balkans, you do n’t see you so cleverly, so I am very optimistic about you. I suggest you In the future, if you have the opportunity to see my follower Uliu, you can talk to him more, I believe he will be able to tell you how to do many things. "

Schell looked at Alexandria somewhat blankly. Of course he was a long-cherished name for the Moors, but he didn't quite understand what the master meant.

But one thing he was probably sure was that the old man didn't seem to intend to kill his mouth, which made Schell let go of a big rock in his heart.

Before going out, Sher was excited to pay a salute in the Balkan way, and then hesitated or said one thing hidden in his heart: "That old man, when you and the princess were in the corridor, your Uncle has been here. He, he seems to know something. "

After talking, the Balkans ran out of the room like a fugitive.

Looking at the door that slammed shut, Alexander was slightly stunned, and then he could not help cursing in a low voice: "Damn old guy."
