Pedro Caderon, Alexander hadn't heard or remembered this man and his name for a long time.

However, he was able to mention that this man was the murderer of Giovanni Borgia and thought of this Pedro Cadheron because of this man's special status and Alexander's own special relationship with him.

Caderon was a retinue of Pope Alexander VI, and then he followed Caesar, a man who was an inconspicuous man from every point of view, and the only reason he was remembered by Alexander was that history rumored that this good-looking young squire was Lucrezia's secret lover, and Lucrezia even bore him a son.

It was impossible for Alexander to forget such a rumor, whether true or not, and it was later said that this man had lost his life because of this rumor, and it was clear that neither the Pope nor Caesar could tolerate such a scandal between Lucrezia and an entourage, and he was found to have died unexpectedly with a maid, although no one ever proved that his death had anything to do with the boy that Lucrezia gave birth to, but it was impossible for Alexander not to remember this man.

Another reason why Alexander was impressed by this man was that he remembered that Ulliu had reported to him that Caveron had been following him because he had discovered that he seemed to be having some kind of affair with Maria, Giovanni Borgia's wife, and that Ulliu had seen the same people killed for following Cadron, and it seemed that it was Ashulk's men who killed those stalkers.

Although surprised at the time, Alexander did not pay much attention to it, and even thought that the people had noticed Caderon just because he had discovered the secret between him and Giovanni's wife.

But maybe from that time on, he secretly regarded this Cadron as a suspect in Giovanni's murder, but probably he didn't even take this question to heart, so although he realized it, he didn't pay too much attention to it.

Now that Connie O only mentioned the murderer of Giovanni, and then mentioned the descendant of Jem that Ashulk had been looking for, Alexander suddenly found the shadow of that person from the dusty memories for a long time, and at the same time, he finally knew why Ashulk paid so much attention to his person, and even sent someone to follow him.

"Pedro Caderon, it's really him." Not knowing whether he was lamenting that Caderon was Giovanni's killer, or if he was surprised that he had not misguessed that he was Jem's son, he looked at Connie and hoped she would continue.

"Jem is dead, this son he gave birth to outside should not be any longer a threat, but Jem used to have a lot of power in Asia Minor in his early years, and the tribal nobles there revered him very much, and some of Jem's old subordinates already had some power at that time, even the Sultan couldn't act rashly against them, so for the sake of safety, the Sultan of Bayezet couldn't risk tolerating Jem's offspring," Connie explained in detail, she knew that Alexander would definitely understand the Sultan's scruples, After all, he himself had just used the rumors of a Greek princess to get his lover the status of the Grand Duchess of Wallachia, and more importantly, at least nominally, it was under the leadership of this "Greek princess" that the Balkan nobles defeated the Sultan himself, which made Sophia's prestige for a time even comparable to that of any noble monarch in Europe.

"Then why are you looking for me, and is this the idea that Ashulk gave you?" Alexander asked, "Tell me, what is that Ottoman calculating?" ”

"You should trust him, after all, you have made a fortune together, and he asked me to tell you that I hope you are ready that the Ottoman fleet will not stop the invasion because of the accident that happened to the Sultan." Connie said with a slight sarcasm.

"Did he even tell you this?" Alexander was a little surprised, in fact, it was not difficult to know that it was not difficult for him and Ashulk to make a fortune together, and even if it was discovered, it would not cause much trouble, and the Europeans of the present era were not so clear in their national consciousness, and it was not uncommon to do business while fighting, even with the Ottomans.

As for the later son-in-law of Louis XII, his heir to the throne, François, even entered into an alliance with the Ottomans.

However, Ashulk was not a European, he was an Ottoman nobleman, and for the Sultan, who valued his personal loyalty, it was difficult to say that the actions of the Ashulk brothers would not cause trouble for themselves, and as for the things that Ellup did, even the most benevolent monarch would not have tolerated in Alexander's opinion.

Alexander couldn't help but look at Connie O differently, he felt that this woman was really not simple.

As if seeing Alexander's surprise, Connie smiled slightly, and then she lowered her voice slightly, as if she was afraid of waking up Sophia next to her, and said: "The Sultan does not seem to be in a good situation now, although we don't know what will happen to him when he returns to Constantinople, but his empire is in chaos now, but even so the Ottomans decided to continue invading Europe, Count do you know what this is, because they have to do this, For the Ottoman Empire, what made them strong was not because of their strong faith and the courage to sacrifice for Allah, but because only in this way could they pacify and feed the noble tribes within the empire, and the sultan had to ensure that they all received enough benefits. ”

Alexander nodded slightly, he admitted that Connie was right, the huge Ottoman Empire can only avoid internal contradictions if the war machine that has always maintained them is invincible, and in this regard, the founding monarchs of the Ottoman Empire have a very clear understanding, so they still insist on the powerful offensive of outward expansion even when internal strife continues, because they know that they must not stop at this time, otherwise many things will come to them.

This is why, even though Bayezid II is now seriously wounded, he still insists on carrying out his plan of invasion at sea.

"That Cadron, can be a key," Connie looked at Alexander, "He is Jem's son, this is too important, even Ashulk did not dare to make a decision easily even if he found him, and now my lord," Connie looked at Alexander, "Who else can decide the fate of that person?" ”

Alexander listened silently to Conneo's words, he saw the shadow of fanaticism in Conneo's eyes, he didn't know if this was Conio's original idea, or that his actions in the Balkans stimulated and inspired the woman and Ashulk in front of him, and it was obvious that these two people were already stuck in the idea of fighting Pedro Caderon.

"You said you only wanted to save your father, but now you're ready to raise a fallen prince?" Alexander looked at Connie with a smile, of course he didn't underestimate this woman, on the contrary, he was very clear about this woman's methods, and he also knew about Ashulk, so he believed that if these two people really had such intentions, they might not set off a storm in the Ottoman Empire.

The most important thing is that the current Ottoman is in the moment before the turmoil, the Sultan's wounded power has upset the balance of power within the empire, although Salim and Mehmed are not as full as they were later, but the Sultan's original advantage has also been weakened because of the wounded, so it is certain that soon there will be an uncontrollable civil strife within the Ottoman Empire.

And at this time, what will happen if the news of Jem has a future suddenly appears?

Alexander looked at Connie Neo seriously and asked, "So what are you going to do to smuggle Cadron back to Ottoman?" ”

"It's a good idea, but it's not the best," Connie smiled, and Alexander noticed a hint of fox cunning in her smile, "Count, do you think it was a coincidence that Caderon became the Pope's retinue?" ”

Alexander remained silent, but in his heart he couldn't help but admit that this Connie was really shrewd.

"Speaking of which, many people underestimate Alexander VI," Connieo said with a little emotion, "who would have thought that he had been planning all this when he was not yet the Pope, and that he had a child from Jem, which was enough to give him a chip in his hand, which may never be used, but once used, it would bring him great benefits, and I think if he could, he could even use his beautiful daughter as a tool to tempt that Caderon." ”

"Kala", Alexander's cup in his hand was heavily placed on the table, which even woke up Sophia, who had fallen asleep by him, Sophia opened her eyes and saw that the woman was actually sitting very close to Alexander, her face immediately looked ugly, she stared at Conio viciously, wondering if she should ask the guards to drive this annoying woman out, but seeing Alexander's expression was a little gloomy, as if she was angry with this woman, she temporarily dispelled this idea.

Alexander was angry, but he wasn't exactly targeting Conio.

On the contrary, Conneo's words gave him a great revelation about the rather confusing rumors of history between Lucrezia and Cadelon.

Lucrezia may be too young to fall in love, but could the Pope be so ignorant of his daughter's erratic character?

So in history, when Lucrezia had to live alone in the convent because of her divorce from Giovanni Sforza, why did Alexander VI have to let Pedro Caderon as a messenger to send letters to Lucrezia frequently?

However, the Pope did not seem to notice that during that time Caderon kept going back and forth between the monastery where Lucrezia lived in seclusion and Rome, until Lucrezia finally became pregnant, and then gave birth to a boy of unknown origin, and the name of this child is also strange in history, except for the very common name of Giovanni, the child is also called the Son of Rome.

It's just that Caderón died suddenly and inexplicably because of the exposure of Lucrezia's pregnancy soon after she became pregnant, and it is impossible to know whether there is anything unexpected in this, because the current Lucrezia is Alexander's lover, the mother of their lovely daughter, and has no entanglement with that Pedro Caderon.

And Cadron didn't lose his life because of his relationship with Lucrezia.

Many people's fates have changed, but that doesn't mean that some mysteries and conspiracies have disappeared.

Since Caderon is Jem's son, the Pope's plan may not have been completely lost, and Connie and the others seem to be preparing to take advantage of this.

"Forgive me for being unreasonable, but Ashulk has a plan that may be of interest to you," Connie O certainly didn't know the real reason why Alexander was suddenly angry, she only thought that her words had offended the young count's pride, "He asked me to tell you about the Ottoman Navy, just hoping that you would take the opportunity to make more money, and in return he hoped to get your support in the next plans." ”

"He wants to convince the Pope to prop up Caderon?"

"It would be best if it could be that way, but it may not be that simple now, that Caderon," Connie shook his head a little helplessly, "he's in a lot of trouble." ”

"Yes, he had an affair with Giovanni's wife, Maria, and if you're not mistaken, then he's the murderer of Giovanni," said Alexander, pondering what Ulius had said about Cadheron and Giovanni's wife, and then thinking about the signs that he had seen Maria at the funeral when he had returned to Rome to investigate the cause of Giovanni's death, and he couldn't help but shake his head, "Maybe there's something about Maria, and maybe even that woman was an accomplice in the murder of her husband." ”

Connieo didn't object, and her secret observation of Cadheron during this time made her feel that the person was indeed a big trouble, especially when she realized that he was actually related to the killing of Giovanni, Connieo was even a little dazed.

"But we do need him, don't we, Jem's son, just this is enough to be the biggest bargaining chip in our hands," Connie O was not reconciled "Ashulk is very loyal to the Sultan, he has reported to the Sultan about Cadron, but now Bayezet is like this, and he does not know what will happen to the Ottomans. ”

"So now he's decided to keep the chips in his hands." Alexander smiled slightly, who said that the Ottomans were not only respectful but afraid of the Sultan, and the people at the bottom may be like this, and those Ottoman nobles and tribal chieftains also have different intentions.

"Will you help us?" Seeing Alexander's gaze, Connie smiled "Maybe that Caderon got into a lot of trouble, but he was very useful to us, you know that my father has lived in Constantinople for too long, he likes that city, he thinks it is the most beautiful place in the world, he never wants to come back until he is imprisoned and loses his freedom, but I think even if I get him out he will never go back to Europe, so I think that is our future home." ”

"So you've made up your mind to support Cadron with Ashulk while a civil war might break out between the Sultan and his son?"

"Would you like to help us?" Connie didn't answer directly, but her look let Alexander know that he had guessed right.

Alexander didn't answer immediately, it was a bit of a surprise to him, or rather it was completely out of all his plans.

In his mind, there were only two things he should do his best at this time, one was to deal with the invasion of the French, and he had too much to do in this matter, because it was also related to the future of too many people.

Another thing is to wait for Vasco da Gama's return!

The Oriental Route, the Cape of Good Hope, distant India, before the dawn of the new century has fully illuminated the contours of the New World, the great wealth brought by Vasco da Gama's Indian Route for a long time will support the Kingdom of Portugal as a great pillar in modern history against Spain.

This was equally important to Alexander, who needed not only the wealth that Vasco da Gama had brought with him, but also the wealth he needed to build with Portugal.

These two events alone were enough to make him put too much effort into it, and perhaps because of Lucrezia, he really didn't have a good impression of that Pedro Caderon.

In addition, remembering that he had a good relationship with Giovanni after the Battle of Chimone, and that Giovanni showed kindness to him about him and Lucrezia, Alexander even felt a little sorry for Giovanni's death.

This made his impression of Caderon even worse.

But what really matters is that he doesn't think Ashulk's plan is necessarily realistic.

Perhaps because he was too impressed by Selim and even his son who was destined to become a great king in the future, the future Suleiman Magnificent, although he was still young, Alexander felt that even if Ashulk planned carefully, he might not be able to really help the little bastard Cadron to the throne of the Sultan, after all, he had to face Selim, who was known as the brutal and the emperor's own father, one of the famous Ottoman founders!

"I think you do need help," Alexander nodded, seeing Connie smile, he raised his hand and held out a finger and shook it in front of her eyes, "You misunderstood, I'm not talking about help, neither I nor the Pope, you must know that even if we agree, it is impossible to give you any direct help, as for money, it is even more difficult to manage, life is difficult and expensive, and the Papal has no extra Florin." ”

Connie was slightly stunned, she really couldn't think of what else Alexander could help them with what she had already said.

"Since your father travels a lot, I don't know if he has ever been to Persia, I suggest you take a look at his travel notes," Alexander smiled to Conneo with a broker's professional smile, "Go to Persia, you will find a strong ally there, and although that ally may still be a small child, trust me he will not let you down." ”

After saying that, Alexander paused, and then added: "I believe he will not let me down." ”
