Vol 3 Chapter 78: Sophia

Alfonso knelt in front of the icon, trembling slightly, his body lying on the ground, as if confessing, but if someone saw the look on his face, he would not think so.
At this time, the Bishop of Palermo was in a trance, and his eyes were sometimes opened and closed, his head and face were very close to the ground, and every time he breathed, the soil on the ground was blown.
"God forgive my sins, I have confessed to the crimes I committed in the past, but why the devil always tempts me to fall."
Alfonso's mouth kept repeating this whisper, so that the priest not far behind him could vaguely hear what he was saying.
"What can make us fall into the abyss of desire more than the terrible devil, please save me my lord, otherwise I will fall into and never be saved." Alfonso's unstoppable prayer seemed to be fighting What a terrible thing to fight, only when he finally straightened up and turned around, his face had completely recovered from the previous calm and calm look even when facing the assassin. The kind of calmness of the bishop at that time moved everyone, even Some people think that even if Cardinal Montero faced that danger alive, he might not be able to be as threatened as the Bishop.
"God loves the world and sends his only child to save us with life, and Christ has faced all kinds of trials before finally fulfilling the mission given by God ..."
Alfonso shouted loudly to the people in front of him with open arms. This is a temporary requisition mass for Monteiro. In his capacity as Alfonso, he was not eligible for this mass, but because of Monteiro The death was too sudden, and even the final confession did not have time to do so, so the priests of the church had to ask Alfonso to make up for this regret in such a way of a reassuring mass. However, among these people, Alfonso's status is the highest, but this will undoubtedly make Alfonso's identity suddenly become more prominent, and it will attract the Pope's attention after a short time.
At least the priest thought so helplessly.
Alfonso ’s voice was loud and penetrating, and even echoed in the hall of the church, which was different from those of the older bishops who were often powerless, and also made the priests attending the Mass unable to help themselves. A shock.
The death of Monteiro hit these people is not serious, at this time they are thinking about who will take over the prominent identity of Archbishop Monteiro, after all, as the bishop of the Roman Catholic province directly under the Holy See, The parish of Monteiro has an unusually important position.
However, because of this, it is not the abilities of the bishops of Monteiro that are important, but the loyalty to the Holy See, to be precise, the Pope himself, so they are often mediocre but well-known people. It is easier to take the throne of this bishop.
The priest felt that he still met these requirements very carefully. He was cautious and heard that, at least when serving the former bishop, he not only did his due diligence but also made an analogy. If these did not allow him to be trusted by the pope, then he There is also a real advantage that no one else has, that is his surname Farne.
As the distant cousin of Julia Farne, he was happy to call his niece "the bride of Christ", but he was smart enough to appear much lower-key than ever, even in In front of the stupid predecessor Bishop Monteiro who had been lying in the temporary coffin, he also tried to make him look free of threats, and he was also a very useful assistant.
But now the priest of Farnese thinks he can consider it for himself. Although the Palermo bishop who did n’t know where he appeared in front of him seems a bit obtrusive, but thinking about the special place in Sicily, the priest of Farne was relieved However, he did not think that the bishopric had become a threatening obstacle to his bishop's throne.
The Soul Mass is very simple, which is also in line with Alfonso ’s current identity. After the prayer ceremony, Alfonso declined the priest ’s proposal to temporarily rest in a small room dedicated to cardinals, but discussed it with everyone. How to arrange the funeral of the cardinal as soon as possible, which also made the priest somewhat favored him, I feel that this person is still a bit energetic.
In fact, Alfonso's attention was not in the matter of praying for Monteiro's requisition. He was concerned about the short crossbow that he accidentally saw at Sophia.
He knew the origin of the short crossbow and knew who it should belong to.
But why did the short crossbow appear on the Bohemian girl's wrist, but Alfonso could not have imagined it.
Or he would not think about it.
But the fact forced him to think about what was going on again and again.
In the end, he felt that all mysteries should be on that Gombré.
He still remembered that when Alexander was seen by the French, he said that he was married to a Bohemian woman, and later proved that the so-called Bohemian woman was actually a 12-year-old girl, but Alfonso was concerned. It was not the age of Alexander ’s wife, he cared that those Bohemians happened to come from the south of Sicily.
Is everything a coincidence?
Alfonso did n’t believe it. From a very early age, he knew that the so-called coincidences were actually formed only under various arrangements. Even if the matter in front of them was really a coincidence, if you have the patience to study it carefully, you will find out There are often elaborate arrangements behind these coincidences.
Alfonso suddenly wanted to see Alexander more strongly than he was when he heard that Alexander had been driven out of Sicily by the old fox Kamuli.
Although Alfonso was really reluctant to admit it, he actually hated Alexander.
What kind of story will you tell me this time? Alfonso thought about it. He didn't expect that after so long, he would have to deal with that annoying Gombre again, and this time it was different from before.
Alfonso still thinks that Uliu's previous words are bragging, even if Caesar Pogia did indeed tell Alexander what to do, at most let him be a errand for himself.
As the Pope ’s son, there must be many people who want to stagnate him. Speaking of which, Alexander ’s ability to run errands for Caesar in such a short time has surprised Alfonso. He does not think that the kid can be any bigger. Yield.
It's just that Alfonso also knew that he had just arrived. In Rome, in this vortex, everything should be careful.
At this time, Alfonso wanted to see Krian earlier.
Krian did not actually escape, he did not even escape.
Immediately after jumping out of the window, he mixed in with the chaotic crowd, then took off his clothes and hung the previously prepared line on his body. He turned around and returned to the church.
This evening is too chaotic. No one will notice that it looks like a foot merchant who just happened to be back in Rome and had to hide from Tibet, only to remember to hurry home.
Even a Bohemian who had been catching up stopped before his eyes and turned his horse to another place.
Krian passed through the panicked crowd and came to observe not too far from the church, and then he quickly saw the masked man mixed with the captured mob.
"You really don't give up," Krian whispered. The mask man's persistent desire for revenge made him a little bit of a headache, but now he can't take care of him for a while. Krian sees Sophia coming out of the church. I also saw that Alfonso aroused Sophia's ambition. "Stupid woman, that Gumbre will be unlucky because of you." Krian said sarcastically.
Of course, Krian did not come back for Sophia, he was waiting for the opportunity to see Alfonso.
Seeing that the masked man quietly followed Sophia's direction in the chaos and disappeared into an alley, Krian found a chance to sneak into the cemetery behind the church.
The cemetery is always full of gloom, and no one wants to come here at night. For Krian, this is the best hiding place. Then he just needs to wait patiently for the bishop.
Sophia's horse was quick, or she was lashing hard with her whip, her mount was almost rushing towards the front, and the Bohemians behind her had to struggle to catch up.
Sophia is now 13 years old. For many children of this age, maybe having fun is the most they want to do in a day, or even if it is because of their livelihoods to help the family work, there is still a lot of time for them They play.
But Sophia was already helping her husband, which made her feel very happy to think about it.
The city of Rome is full of chaos tonight, which made Sophia very excited. She kept urging the mount to run forward. Whenever she saw the figure from a distance, she would rush up with great force no matter what the other party is doing. This caused her chaos. There were more troubles than she solved. For a time, there were rumors everywhere in the south of Rome that there was a terrible female robber who was looting around the city with a group of men.
Caesar Borgia came to the south of Rome at this time.
Caesar didn't care too much when the riots started, but with the bad news coming, he finally realized the seriousness of the matter, and Caesar became resolute when he made a decision. Caesar personally led the team across the Tiber while sending the army The River Bridge, after passing through a small half of the Roman city, entered the southern part of the city where the disturbance was most severe.
Caesar's army is highly trained soldiers, relying on their familiarity with the Roman city, they quickly occupied several key places, and then began to clear the mob that caused the riots.
And the rumor of the "female robber leader" came to Caesar at this time.
The cavalry full of alien styles, like the looting of fire, swept from one street to another like a gust of wind. It sounds like the trouble of Attila coming to Rome again.
Caesar immediately mobilized the army to surround the place where the legendary "Female Attila" appeared.
Caesar's army was clearly well-trained, and their familiarity with Rome made them more agile, so that it didn't take long to discover the strange "robbers".
Just to Caesar's surprise, when he heard the news and was about to give an order, the robber suddenly changed his original plan of looting a rich man's settlement, but inexplicably rushed into a A rioting market.
After both the robbery and the robbery were severely taught, the "robbers" broke out of the destroyed market like a whirlwind, and then disappeared without a trace. .
When Caesar arrived, he saw a very strange scene, the market was all messed up, the mob and the civilians were mixed together, and the wailing of the injured was everywhere, and everyone was cursing the inexplicable woman.
Listening to the specious reports, Caesar began to be interested in this bandit.
Especially when he heard that the robbers seemed to be Bohemians, he vaguely guessed something.
Sophia felt very happy. She felt like she had become a real knight, and everything in front of her would be destroyed by her.
Whenever she saw a place where people gathered, she immediately issued a command, and the Bohemians immediately attacked there like a tornado. This completely random move made it impossible for her to grasp her whereabouts for a while.
However, Caesar soon discovered the law of action of this strange team. He found that this strange team described as a "robber" seemed to find some mob places to run, and although they were also looting, they were more like Is looking for the trouble of those mobs.
This made Caesar keenly grasp some key points.
After Sofia learned the mob she met twice in succession, Caesar confirmed his guess and mobilized the army on a street not far from the Colosseum. Sophia, the overwhelmed guy launched the attack.
"In the name of the Chief Member of the Conference of Archbishops and Orders of Valencia, I order you to lay down your arms."
Caesar yelled to the Bohemians on the opposite side, ignoring the dissuasion of his entourage, and led the horse to the front of the line. When the light from the torch saw him wearing dazzling armor, he sat staring at Sophia angrily, Caesar couldn't help being fascinated by the strange girl who completely subverted his long-held view of women, and he was even slightly distracted.
At this time, Sophia was also looking at Caesar. She was very angry that this person blocked her way, and even more angry that he dared to order himself to lay down his weapon.
Sophia instinctively raised her arm and saw her move, and the Bohemians immediately made a familiar whistling sound.
"Adult, dangerous!"
A follower who rushed up and tried to pull Caesar's war horse back, he looked pale and looked at the opposite Sophia who rushed at any time and shouted: "Come back, Master, that woman is crazy!"
"I have never run away in the face of women," Caesar laughed indifferently. "And it is such a beautiful woman."
Disregarding the urging of his followers, Caesar simply led the horse closer to Sophia and looked at her carefully.
"You're so beautiful ~ EbookFREE.me ~ After carefully looking at Sophia's appearance, Caesar couldn't help but blurt out." I think any knight must be eager to catch such a captive. "
"Ah ~"
Sophia made an angry cry. She could not tolerate someone talking to her like this. In the mind of the 13-year-old Bohemian girl, only her husband could talk to her like this, and if other men did, she would A knife must be used to answer this insult.
Because the person insulted was not her, but her husband.
As a gypsy wife, Sophia's childhood education was to guard her husband's honor.
"what!"
Another unique cry from her throat, Sophia swung forward with her arm in shiny armor, and just before Caesar had time to reflect it, she had brandished her sword towards the Archbishop of Valencia, the Order of Order The chief congressman, who is also Alexander VI's favorite son, stormed past!
At this time, Caesar knew he was in big trouble!
