Vol 3 Chapter 97: Kunto's last words

Standing outside the sight, Alexander looked at the long corridor in front of him, then turned his head to look at the two closed doors behind him.
He felt that he should be happy because he was still alive.
Obviously, what Giovanni thought before was not very clear, but Alexander VI obviously did not have any good intentions for him, maybe he had already made a plan to sacrifice him from the beginning, it can be said that this is completely in line with his habit.
But in the end, Alexander VI decided to expose their tricks only in front of Giovanni. When he saw two identical letters in front of him, Giovanni first looked a little stunned, then lowered his head and said nothing more. .
"Should I choose to believe you," Alexander VI asked Giovanni in a suspicious tone, and then he looked at the equally silent Alexander next to him. "Tell me, how do you make me believe you can?" Be the one you say? "
Giovanni looked at Alexander strangely. He didn't know what assurance Alexander had made in the short time before he came in. At least in his opinion, Alexander must have been sacrificed in this matter.
But now it seems that this is not the case.
"I will make the people of the Sforza family think that I have their secrets, or at least the secrets of Giovanni and Colombo, which will make them feel very dangerous," Alexander looked at Giovanni. He will make a lot of wrong things because of nervousness, as long as they feel that they may be threatened. "
"A bait," Alexander VI groaned for a while, and then he looked at his son "Well, you can take this friend of you away, but I want to remind you Giovanni, don't deceive your family, Do n’t forget that Giovanni is your sister ’s husband. "
Giovanni slowly looked up at his father, then walked over to take Alexander VI's hand and kissed silently.
Now, looking at the corridor in front, the door behind him, and the silent Giovanni Pogia next to him, Alexander felt the clothes inside were cold, and the hair on his forehead had been soaked with cold sweat.
"I really underestimated you," Giovanni finally spoke. He looked at Alexander with some curious eyes, as if to see clearly what he was thinking in his head, and then he asked with a tone of a joke. The pope accepted your suggestion, so how are you going to play your role? "
How to play? Alexander looked at Giovanni somewhat inexplicably. He knew what would happen next, and he knew what would happen to the people of the Pogia family, but now they need to be told by him, which makes Alexander feel a little bit eccentric.
"Maybe we should make your brother-in-law feel a little dangerous, and let him know that his little secrets have been discovered." Alexander Yue said more and more that there was a strangeness, and he couldn't help thinking of Connie In order to get rid of the charge of killing Colombo, he even compromised with Connie at that time, but now he has to take the charge on himself, which makes him feel some kind of inexplicable irony and helplessness. At the same time, he couldn't help thinking about the marriage between Lukrezija and Giovanni Sforza, it seems that these two men are finally going to end in the historical trajectory.
Giovanni nodded noncommittally. In fact, the shock he had just suffered was not small. When he saw two forged letters exactly the same, Giovanni's heart jumped madly. He first thought he fell. Into a trap, all this was arranged for him.
At that moment, Giovanni was really scared. The feeling of trembling even in the hallway of the cathedral can still be deeply felt.
"Adult, please allow me to leave."
Alexander's voice awakened Giovanni, who was caught in memories because of that kind of trembling. He waved his hands at random, but when he saw Alexander turn away, he moved slightly and said, "Wait."
Alexander turned and looked at Giovanni.
Was it really not arranged by Caesar? Giovanni wanted to ask this question, but he didn't ask.
Giovanni knew what this sentence would bring, and even knew what would happen if asked if there was no answer.
Looking at the back of Alexander's departure, Giovanni exhaled deeply.
As he walked out of the cathedral, a cold wind smelled of dust, and as he watched the busy crowd outside the church, Alexander also exhaled.
The Vatican is building all kinds of magnificent buildings everywhere. After a long time, all kinds of great works of art and palaces with extraordinary significance will rise from the ground. Countless amazing sculptures will be completed in succession. Masterpieces of art masters will also be presented in this city in this era.
"Maybe I will be lucky enough to see Vinci."
Alexander suddenly thought of this as he stepped down the first step. In the era of the great three Renaissance masters, those names that are exciting as long as you think about it and their proud masterpieces should appear in this period. Yes, Bologna, Milan, Venice, Genoa, and Florence, known as the irrefutable literary and artistic center of this era, there must be something more attractive waiting for him to appreciate and discover.
"It's great to be alive." Alexander exclaimed in his heart.
To see all this, you must live alive.
Alexander finally could not bear to look back. At this time, the cathedral did not look so magnificent after many years. Even the famous dome surrounded by a group of twelve angels still had no shadow. The current cathedral is even more Most of them are like a large rectangular coffin, which may be strange to describe in this way, but in Alexander's view, the people walking in and out from inside are indeed like walking into a huge tomb.
Alexander shook his head slightly to dispel the strange thought in his head. He turned and walked forward, where he could not ride a carriage, and his guard was restricted to have to wait far away when passing through the mess of the construction. At the site, Alexander's eyes were fixed on everyone who was close.
Perhaps some of these people would suddenly rush towards him, and then pull out the hidden short sword to stab him.
This is the Vatican, but even Rome. There are too many people assassinated in this city, the most famous of which is Caesar.
Will I be assassinated like Caesar? Alexander secretly asked, he is still not sure whether Alexander VI will suddenly change his mind. For that person, all plans are based on the premise of obtaining enough benefits, so if he thinks it is not cost-effective, he can do it at any time. change idea.
In addition to Alexander VI, there are actually many people who want to kill him.
Julia Farne was about to avenge her brother, and even if Alexander VI did not want to kill him, as long as he proposed to leak the news about Colombo, Giovanni Sforza or other Anyone will soon want his life.
Unexpectedly, in the short period of time he came to Rome, it has become a nail in the eyes of many people. Alexander secretly mocked himself, and at the same time clenched the sword handle around his waist.
Seeing the pope cannot of course carry a musket, so the only thing he currently uses to protect him is the saber.
The guard is still far away, to be precise, staying near the Carolingian Palace.
Two figures appeared on the road ahead, and Alexander's heart tightened momentarily. He looked at the two men, and at the same time he did not stay at his feet but continued to the previous.
The two men were obviously heading towards him, and when they saw him, one of them stepped up and walked ahead.
"Are you going to kill me?" Alexander's hand pressed the hilt. He knew that his fighting skills were terrible. Although he studied with Nashan for a long time, he was obviously beaten by the Gypsies again and again. I don't have much confidence in my skills.
The person in front had come to a place not far from him. Alexander stopped and he noticed that the clothes of the two people looked a bit familiar, or from the style of the clothes they can be seen that they should not be Romans.
"Dear guardian of the lighthouse," the man in front stood, then he saluted Alexander and said in a tone with a typical Sicilian tone, "On the order of Palermo Alfonso, we will bring you the Bishop Master Invitation. "
Alexander looked at the two people in front of him with a little consternation. At this time, he could already be sure that they were indeed Sicilian, and obviously they were the followers beside Alfonso, but he really could not understand how Alfonso would suddenly invite He is gone.
And apparently, Alfonso arranged for someone to wait outside the cathedral after seeing him outside the Pope's visit, so the two of them greeted him as soon as he came out.
When did Alfonso become so enthusiastic? Or what tricks does he have to play?
Alexander couldn't help thinking of Clean.
Krian actually assassinated Cardinal Monteiro. This news made Alexander very surprised, and what made him even more unexpected was that Alfonso was said to be on the spot.
When he heard the news, Alexander was almost immediately certain that Alfonso had instructed him, but he really did n’t understand that Alfonso was crazy to assassinate a cardinal. Once such a thing was exposed, the one who waited for him was absolutely the most Terrible penalty, and how could he be so stupid that he was at the scene of the assassination?
These doubts passed through him when he accidentally saw Alfonso outside the audience, but at that time all his thoughts were concentrated on the major event of facing Alexander VI, so he did not have time to think about it.
And he did not expect that Alfonso would specifically arrange for people to wait outside him for the purpose of meeting him.
Alexander did not know that Alfonso had found a clue about Kunto who had disappeared for a long time from Sophia ’s short crossbow, but he still knew that Kunto was sent by him. Because of this, Alexander had Alfonso in his heart. At the same time full of curiosity, but also has a deep vigilance.
Alexander couldn't forget what Kunto looked like before he died, and at the same time he remembered what Kunto told him to find Alfonso before he died.
He had never said that to anyone, even though he later saw Alfonso, but Alexander finally did not pass it on to him for various reasons.
"grown ups?"
The person opposite saw Alexander quietly and reminded him quietly.
After thinking about it, Alexander nodded, and it was not good to get along with Alfonso. At least this person's ambition made Alexander uneasy, and Kunto's death always gave him a trace of vigilance.
Kunto was betrayed and secretly calculated, and Alexander had no doubt about it, so even if he asked Alexander to find Alfonso before he died, Alexander did not just find the door so casually.
And fortunately for him, fortunately not.
"I will go to see the bishop, but before that I will complete the mission given by my majesty the pope."
Alexander ’s words changed the look of the Sicilian. Of course, the invitation of the bishop could not be compared with the mission of the pope, and I had heard before that he could actually see the pope, which was enough to make the Sicilian dare not regard him as the original lighthouse. protector.
Looking at the increasingly humble Sicilian, Alexander was moved by his wits and pretense, but even if he borrowed the bad reputation of Alexander VI, he would not go to this appointment easily.
As long as he thinks about the clever Krian, Alexander thinks it is better to be cautious.
A few cavalrymen appeared on the street in the distance, and Paul Busako ’s figure made Alexander ’s face smile, and the Aggris finally arrived in Rome on the third night, although everyone arrived immediately after arriving at the place. Tired of falling to the ground and never wanting to get up again, but Alexander knew how important such a march was to them.
Even if someone was left behind along the way, Alexander did n’t care. He already felt that the Agri Musketeers who had gone through a long journey were undergoing huge changes. This farmer became a soldier, so the trek from Sanero to Rome is changing them from the same mercenary as most of today ~ EbookFREE.me ~ to a standing army that can really endure hardship.
A slightly quick horseshoe sound had been heard in the distance. The two Sicilians looked back and heard a few Musketeers on horses caught their attention.
Looking at them, Alexander's hand was always on the hilt, even if he had already determined who the other person was, he still dared not care.
"Adult!" Paul Busaco, who was running at the forefront, quickly came to Alexandria, and he quickly jumped off the horse as the saber around his waist hit the thigh.
"My hunting guards," Alexander looked at these guards first, and then he looked at the two Sicilian again. "Tell the bishop, I will visit him in due time."
The Sicilian spoke slightly, but finally bowed his head in silence.
Looking at the back of the Sicilian, Alexander suddenly remembered the inexplicable words Kunto temporarily told him.
"From then on, the noble crown will remain ..." Alexander muttered to himself, and then looked up at the Roman city in the distance. "But for whom?"
