Chapter 2767: Friendship and loyalty

, The fastest update of the latest chapters in the world of treasure hunt!
When the laughter subsided, Ye Tian resumed the previous topic.
"According to this order, I can boldly guess that the pass code for the third section of this arched corridor is hidden in another top oil painting by Leonardo da Vinci, which is the famous "St. John the Baptist" .
"St. John the Baptist" is believed to be the last work created by Leonardo da Vinci. It was created between 1513 and 1516. The oil painting is also in the Louvre. It is the same as the two previously mentioned. The same as oil painting.
In "St. John the Baptist", some mysterious characters and Fibonacci numbers with unknown meaning are also hidden, but they are hidden deeper. When I went to the Louvre in Paris before, I discovered it by chance.
The reason why the third passage of the arched passage is hidden in "St. John the Baptist" and not in other works by Leonardo is of course for a reason. There may be a very important secret hidden in it."
Hearing this, Peter and Derek suddenly became more excited, their eyes shining brightly.
"Wow! This is really a suspenseful story, it's wonderful!"
"Steven, what is the secret hidden in this? Tell us quickly."
Ye Tian looked at these two excited guys, and then continued his performance.
"Like "Virgin and Child and Santa Ana" and "Mona Lisa", "St. John the Baptist" was also a work created by Leonardo da Vinci after he left Milan, and these three oil paintings are his most cherished works. Take it with you.
Until he died in France, these three oil paintings never left him! It now seems that the reason why Leonardo cherished these three oil paintings so much, apart from being the top art works, is probably related to the secrets hidden in them!
This historical building on the ground was built at the end of the fifteenth century, just before 1499, and the same is true for this hidden underground space. It was designed and built by Leonardo da Vinci, and the one who invested in the construction was the Grand Duke Ludovic of Milan.
In addition to being the Grand Duke of Milan, Ludovic was one of the most important and well-known art patrons of the Renaissance. His contribution to the Renaissance movement was not much worse than that of the Medici family in Florence.
For Leonardo da Vinci, Ludovich was even more acquainted, and there was a very deep friendship between them. It was precisely because of Ludovic's generous funding that Leonardo could concentrate on the study of art and other knowledge.

Leonardo's rise to fame, becoming one of the three masters of Renaissance art, and even the greatest artist in Western history, apart from his extraordinary genius, is also inseparable from Ludovic's strong support! "
Peter and Derek Qiqi nodded, obviously agreeing.
They are now people in the industry. They have a certain understanding of the most important Renaissance in the history of Western art, and the life and works of Leonardo da Vinci. They know that Ye Tian is right!
After the preparation was completed, Ye Tian only talked about the most critical point.
"In 1498, King Charles VIII of France died, and the successor to the French throne was Louis XII. He had another identity, that is, the descendants of Gian Galeazzo, the first Duke of Milan.
After Louis XII came to power, he immediately asked Ludovic to get back the title of Duke of Milan. Naturally, Ludovic could not agree to such a request, and the war broke out.
In 1499, with the support of the Republic of Venice and the people of Milan, Louis XII easily conquered Milan. Ludovic could only flee in a hurry and fled to the Holy Roman Empire for refuge.
After Ludovich fled, Leonardo, as his best friend, could only flee Milan in a hurry, embarking on a wandering journey, and finally returning to his hometown, Florence!
In the process of escaping, Da Vinci successively created the sketches of "Virgin and Child and Santa Ana" and "Mona Lisa". The sketches of "St. John the Baptist" may also be created at this time!
From the sketches of "Virgin and Child and Santa Ana" collected by the National Gallery in London, it can be seen that when Da Vinci created the sketches of these three top oil paintings, he began to hide the password."
Peter and Derek nodded together, and the facts were in front of them, and they couldn't be denied at all!
At the same time, these two guys have become more excited. Can such a wonderful story not make people excited?
Ye Tian looked at these two guys and continued his performance.
"Let's talk about the dispute between Loopy XII and Ludovich. After conquering Milan, Louis XII did not find a large number of top art and gold and silver treasures in the Sforza family's collection.
Soon after, with the help of German mercenaries and Swiss mercenaries, Ludovic made a comeback, drove away the French, and reoccupied Milan, but the good times did not last long, and he soon failed again!
This failure resulted in him becoming a prisoner of the French, and then being taken to Paris until he died in depression, and he could not return to Milan again! However, he did not give up the title of Duke of Milan until his death!
It now appears that the reason why Louis XII imprisoned Ludovic to his death is probably not just for the title of the Duke of Milan. You must know that he is already the King of France, and the Duke of Milan is just a tasteless one!
The more important purpose of Louis XII is probably to find the top art collections of the Sforza family and a large number of gold and silver treasures, and the treasures of the Sforza family may be hidden here."
With that said, Ye Tian stretched his hand to the deeper part of the secret road!
Following the direction of his fingers, Peter and Derek all looked over there!
After a short pause, Ye Tian's voice sounded again, echoing in this ancient underground secret passage.
"It may be speculated that before escaping Milan for the first time, Ludovic hid a large number of top art and gold and silver treasures accumulated by the family here to avoid being looted by Louis XII.
Ludovic made a comeback, and after regaining Milan, the French immediately launched a counterattack. He didn't even have the time or dared to pick up these family treasures that were finally hidden!
In that case, these amazing treasures are likely to be cheap to the French. Perhaps it is because he is too cautious and has no money in his hands, which in turn led to the betrayal of the Swiss mercenaries!
Because the Swiss mercenaries refused to work for him, Ludovic quickly failed. While running away with makeup, he was captured by the French at the border and became a prisoner, completely ruining himself!
After he was taken to Paris, Louis XII should have asked about the whereabouts of the Sforza family treasure. Fortunately, Ludovic's bones were relatively hard, and he did not tell the whereabouts of the Sforza family treasure until his death!
From this point of view, Ludovic’s death may not have ended in gloom, but may have been tortured by Louis XII. This kind of thing can be done by the kings of France. They have this tradition! "
Before the voice was over, there was a burst of laughter at the scene.
"Hahaha, yes, Philip IV frantically strangled the Knights Templar, isn't it just for the treasures of the Knights Templar!"
"Really, the French kings really have this tradition. Before, there was Philip IV who strangled the Knights Templar, and afterwards there was Louis XV who ‘Even after I die, even if the flood is so great’, they are all the same!"
Ye Tian also chuckled softly when they heard their complaints.
After a few jokes, I got back to the topic again.
"In 1512, Ludovic's son Maximilian returned to Milan, and the result was another attack by the French. Why did the French continue to hunt down the Sforza family? Perhaps it was because of the treasure!
After Maximilian became the Grand Duke of Milan, he did not seem to find the treasure of his family. He attracted the attack of the French so quickly, perhaps it was also related to the mysterious disappearance of the treasure of the Sforza family!
Like what happened to his Lao Tzu, Maximilian was also taken to Paris by the French, imprisoned, and eventually died in Paris. In the end, the French did not find the mysterious disappearance of the Sforza family treasure.
From this point of view, the only people who know the location of the Sforza family's treasure are likely to be Ludovic and Leonardo, and even Ludovic's two sons do not know where this amazing treasure is buried!
Da Vinci, who was responsible for burying the treasure, cleverly hid the location of the treasure and the password to pass each level in the many artworks he created, deceiving everyone's eyes, until now!
This explains why he always takes "Virgin and Child and Santa Ana" and "Mona Lisa", and "St. John the Baptist" with him, because these three oil paintings hide the three most important codes. !
Even Leonardo's trip to France is related to this matter! François I, the successor of Louis XII, why did he invite Da Vinci, who was very old, to go to France? I am afraid that the purpose is not just because I love art!
Francois I invited Leonardo da Vinci to France, and even forced Leonardo to go to France. The more important purpose may be related to the mysterious disappearance of the treasure of the Sforza family, so he would visit Leonardo frequently!
Unfortunately, until Leonardo da Vinci died in France in 1519, François I did not get the treasure of the Sforza family he wanted~EbookFREE.me~ but he got Leonardo and kept with him. The three most cherished oil paintings!
But where did he want to get it, the Sforza family treasure he was looking for and the three most important codes for entering the treasure are hidden in these three oil paintings. Even if Leonardo died, he did not forget to make a joke with the French!
This corresponds to the sentence, the most dangerous place is often the safest place! Da Vinci practiced this sentence perfectly and maintained his friendship and loyalty to Ludovic, and he did not say where the treasure was until his death! "
Hearing this, Peter and Derek were completely silly and looked at Ye Tian dumbfounded.
They knew very well in their hearts that if the words they just heard were spread out and verified as true, they would surely make a sensation in the entire Western world and rewrite part of Western history and art history!
The greed of the French king for treasures, the cruel pursuit of the Sforza family, the deep friendship and rock-solid loyalty between Leonardo da Vinci and Ludovic, and all kinds of insidious, treacherous, and even things. struggle!
Coupled with this heaven-shattering treasure that is bound to sensation all over the world, all these combined together can definitely be regarded as an extremely exciting drama!
