Vol 4 Chapter 50: The death of Giovanni (5)

When he heard the name Pelotto Cardron, Alexander first thought of Lucrezia.
Alexandre remembers the legends spread between the pope ’s cronies and Lukrezija in history.
It is said that Lucrezia had a close relationship with this Pelotto Cardron when she retired from her first husband, Giovanni Sforza, and became a monk, and even had a son for this life.
The child was always left by Lucrezia, and even after she married Alfonso, Duke of Billy Shelley, she was still taking care of the child.
As for the father of Pelotto Cardron, it was later found that he died inexplicably in the Tiber.
But as Pelotto Cardron went to Naples with Caesar, and Lucrezia was hijacked by Alexandria, so many things happened that originally thought Alexander would no longer have any entanglement with Pelotto Cardron. However, it was unexpectedly found that between wandering around, things inexplicably returned to the original point.
But this time it was not Lucrezia who had a relationship with Pelotto Cardron, but it was replaced by Giovanni's wife Maria de Luna.
Alexander could n’t help but be surprised and curious, he did n’t think it was just a coincidence, or as he thought it was ridiculous, this Pelotto Cardron specifically likes to wear hats to the men of the Pogia family, but how did those two people Hooked together.
Pelotto Cardron ’s time with Caesar left Rome to Naples was not short, which made Alexander believe that even if the two had already been hooked up at that time, they should not have been pregnant, otherwise rumors should have been spread throughout the city of Rome. opened.
Well, after Caesar left Rome?
That Pelotto Cardron quietly returned to Rome from Naples to meet Maria de Luna?
Alexander didn't care whether Giovanni's widow had an affair with others, but when all this involved Giovanni's death, he couldn't think more.
After all, Alexander VI was still waiting for him to find the murderer.
Alexander did not think that the Pope ’s order was just to talk about, in fact, should be really sad about the death of Giovanni Alexander VI. Then use the murderer, or even the killer he thought to revenge his son, this becomes It supports the reason why Alexander VI will not fall because of the pain of bereavement.
More importantly, he needs such a person to rescue the Borgia family from the predicament.
Peloto Cardron seems to be such a good candidate.
Alexander felt faintly that he had seized a good opportunity.
Alexander, who had returned to Marino Palace, was a little surprised to see Barondi.
When seeing this nominal fiancée, Alexander had an urge to ask her what she thought of the marriage contract between the two.
From returning to Rome to meet, Alexander went to see the pope, visited Lucrezia, surveyed Giovanni's body, and even visited the Portico Palace for the second time.
But he never went to see Barenti. If she didn't come, maybe the opportunity for the two to meet would have to be pushed back until sometime.
Isn't Barendi angry in such a situation?
But Alexander didn't see any dissatisfaction on the face of his fiancée, which made him wonder. Was Barenti really tolerant to this point, or didn't even care about him from the beginning.
In other words, for Barenti, as long as it can bring benefits to Luo Weilei's family, as for who this fiancé is and what kind of woman he is related to, she will not care?
"I heard that you are very interested in the Carolingian Palace?" Balenti sat in the chair and looked at the opposite Alexander. She was a little puzzled in her eyes, and seemed to be a little annoyed that she didn't understand Alexander's mind, but Alexander knew That's because she couldn't figure out how her mind would affect Rowley's family, so she was uneasy, not because she cared about him.
"From there you can inquire a lot."
Alexandria did not want to hide from Barenti, the power of the Luo Weilei family in Rome, if he would do anything soon will be discovered, and he really needs help from Luo Weilei, or Genoa at this time.
"There are only messengers stationed in Rome from all the parishes ..." Balenti still looked at Alexandria suspiciously. There was a trace of impatience in her black eyes. It always felt tired to talk to this fiance. Perhaps Alexander also felt this way. However, in order to maintain the interests of the Lowry family, she must maintain this marriage contract "What do you want to know from those parishes?"
"Not just the parish."
Alexander stood up and walked to Barendi before reaching out.
Barendi's hands are not big, and her skin is a little bit cool. When her fingertips gently touch Alexander's palm, she feels like a cup of cool spring water.
"What's that?" Barendi asked, looking puzzled.
Alexander smiled slightly, he knew he needed to explain it to his fiancee.
The diocese is a sphere of influence that is now more stable than the boundaries of a kingdom.
Even if it is a kingdom, it may still lose their land because of war, or split and merge with each other because of marriage, but this is not the case for the diocese.
Compared with those dukes, bishops in a parish often use religious power to make their people obedient, and the bishops directly obey the transcendental status of the Vatican, so that they have the power that even nobles often envy .
Similarly, unlike those noble territories and kingdoms, the diocese has its own set of channels that have evolved over the years and slowly formed records of diocese affairs and messages.
Over the years, as one of the responsibilities of the parish, collecting various deeds that may presage the sacred site in the jurisdiction, or the numerous recording methods that have gradually formed to prove which ones are heretics has formed a nearly perfect system. Consciously, the church has built a huge, almost no missing information network in almost the entire world of Christ.
The older the parish, the more perfect this kind of information network is. In the whole parish, from the nobles to the farmers, people always like to see the things they hear to be strange or bland. Something is praying, confessing, or revealing to the clergy in the church they trust in pure chat.
According to their duties, the priests will report the news to the priests of the parish, and then all kinds of news that will be plausible or purely cranky will be sent to the Vatican.
The Carolingian Palace is responsible for collecting and recording these news about the sacred sites and heretics.
Most of the news will be considered useless. Even some seemingly miraculous events have to be sorted out by monks with rich experience and familiar doctrine before they can be classified as holy or heretic. the behavior of.
Most of the remaining news will not be valued anymore. They will often be simply included, and some will be destroyed directly because they are obviously useless.
All Alexander needed was someone who could arrange him in the Carolingian palace.
"It would be best if you could get the support of the Archbishop," Alexander looked at Barendi. "I think you must be willing to see the Chamber of Commerce of the Rovere family because they can seize the opportunity and earn much more than any other Chamber of Commerce. Money, and I hope I can avoid some big losses because of accurate judgment. I can help you do this, but before that I need to be able to get a place in the Carolingian Palace. "
It is quite different to be able to enter the Carolingian Palace and place your own manpower in this important institution in the Vatican.
Lucrezia ’s previous Carolingian record for Russa could allow Alexander to easily knock on the door of the Vatican ’s treasure house, but what he now needs more is how to arrange Mahimo into the Carolingian palace. .
"I need the help of the Archbishop," Alexander said to Barendi. "As for the reward, I think maybe I can help the Archbishop realize his desire to become a cardinal."
There was a surprise in Barendi's eyes. Of course she knew her father's desire to become a cardinal, and then eventually boarded the pope's throne. It was precisely because of this desire that he would not hesitate to bow down to Charles VIII's hairy boy, and was more willing to give up The hatred between Alexander VI.
But becoming a cardinal is not so easy, even if the former Pope Sistine IV was his uncle, and the Rovere family has a deep influence in Rome, and the old Rovere is not stingy and bribing those who support him. , But it's still not that easy.
But now Alexander said that he could help her father achieve his wish, which made Balenti unbelieving first, and then he couldn't help but be thrilled.
Barendi knew what Alexander could do, and it was because of this that she was surprised by Alexander ’s sudden promise.
"How much do you think can help your father become a cardinal?" Alexander asked in a low voice in Barendi's ear.
"How much do you think?" Balendi slightly frowned slightly. "I heard that Palermo's Bishop Alfonso has paid a lot of money. Since Borgia decided to give up the priesthood, Many people now think that the main church has become a cardinal. "
"Bishop Alfonso," Alexander smiled slightly, his eyes looking out of the window. "I also heard that he spent a lot to become a cardinal, but believe me, that person can't do what he wants."
"Why?" Balendi looked at Alexander. "What are you going to do, know that Alfonso has bribed many people, and some people say he is going bankrupt in order to be a cardinal."
"Another Borgia." Alexander whispered to himself.
At the beginning, Alexander VI borrowed money for the election of the Pope, which made him almost an impoverished egg when he ascended the throne of the Pope.
Now Bishop Alfonso seems to be walking along the old road of Alexander VI, but he is more prosperous and more ambitious.
"Relax, everything that can be measured in money is available, even the Pope's throne," Alexander smiled at Barendi. "But before I serve the Archbishop, I hope I can get some help."
"What do you want?" Barendi asked, her look calm, as if bargaining with an opponent. "I need to know what you want first."
"Introduce my personal priest, monk Mahimo, into the Carolingian Palace," Alexander said. "I hope to find an errand for him in the Carolingian Palace. If I can, I hope he can be my emissary in the Vatican."
"This is what you need?" Barendi looked at Alexander in disbelief. "You know what you just promised is to help my father become a cardinal. Do you know how much it will cost? And you only need to have a monk Stay in the Carolingian Palace? "
"That's it. If I can agree to this condition, I'm willing to provide your father with an appointment," said Alexander, who stopped to look at the door.
When Barendi sensed something, she turned her head and looked towards the door as well, seeing Luo Sha leaning slightly against the door frame and watching them.
Barenti always feels inexpressible to this future young aunt. She can feel Ruosha's coldness to her, although she doesn't care, but seeing Lusha's intimacy with Lukreziah, Barendi is inevitable. Some are not happy.
And Luisa ’s identity also made Barenti care. This identity is not Alexander ’s half-sister, nor the Countess of Cosenza, but it is now beginning to take shape, but makes Barenti vaguely uneasy.
The identity of the "Free Trade Union" at the helm.
The Free Trade Association, which is what Alexander is developing with all his strength, belongs to his business kingdom, and Ruosha obviously has a pivotal status in this kingdom.
For example, now, Barenti is keenly aware that Alexander naturally gave Ruosha the power to decide the amount of money invested in her father.
"50,000 Ducat."
The number that Ruo Sha said without hesitation made Balendi stunned.
Unlike Lucrezia, Barenti knew exactly what 50,000 Ducat meant, or she knew more about how huge the difference between having a 50,000 Ducat value and being able to produce 50,000 Ducat gold coins.
"You mean you can provide 50,000 Ducat cash to my father?"
Barendi felt that she needed to ask more clearly. She had heard the legend that Alexander VI had bribed those bishops in order to become a pope, but even the oil-rich Borgia family had to use several villages and The vineyard replaces almost the few gold coins left.
"Yes, it's cash." Luo Sha nodded slightly.
Barendi looked at Rusha in amazement. She knew that the future young aunt was very clever, not that kind of noble lady and noble lady, but that she had the wisdom of even more than men like her.
But because of this, Barendi felt even more confused.
"Excuse me, but don't you know what this amount of money means?" Barrondi asked puzzled. "This amount of money can make you earn enough profit. If you are lucky, you may not need a year. You can earn as much as half of the principal. "
"You're wrong," Ruosha smiled slightly. "In fact, I believe that if we are lucky, we can make another 50,000 or even more profit in one year."
Balendi nodded slowly. She knew that Ruo Sha was not exaggerating, maybe others were not clear, but she knew the huge potential of Alexander's free trade union better than anyone else.
But it was because of this that she felt a little bit unclear ~ EbookFREE.me ~ why Ruosha was willing to follow Alexander to take such a huge investment by risking nothing for her father.
Seemingly puzzled in Barendi's eyes, Ruosha chuckled and looked back at Alexander.
"I believe in Alexander, just as he believed in me."
Looking at the twin brothers and sisters staring at each other, Barendi suddenly felt that her fiancee was a foreigner here.
In July, after more than half a month, the turmoil caused by Giovanni's death finally calmed down.
And as the murder storm subsides, another major event that is of concern is about to happen in the Vatican.
That is to elect a new cardinal.
And when people's attention was gradually attracted to this event, according to Alexander's order, Uliu, who had been staring closely at Pelotto Cardron, finally brought back new news.
Like Alexander, someone is staring at Pelotto Cardron!
