Of all the people around Alexander VI, Nomelo was a very unique figure.

Before taking up the illustrious position of private secretary to the Pope, Nomelo was an inconspicuous man, and although he had studied at the prestigious University of Bologna like many of the children of the powerful, Nomelo was born into a down-and-out family in Aragon.

So even Nomelo himself thought that perhaps the most glorious achievement of his life would be to become the head of the court of some minor lord, or if God really cared for him, to become the head of a kingdom.

But what Nomelo didn't expect was that when God really favored him, the opportunity given to him was to become the secretary of Alexander VI's side.

The main reason why Nomelo was able to hold such an important position was because of Caesar.

Before Alexander VI became pope, Caesar served as his personal secretary by his side, and during that time Caesar was inseparable in order to protect his father, and then when it was determined that his father was going to run for the papal throne, he and Giovanni had to run around for this matter, and then a trustworthy person was needed to take over his work at the side of Alexander VI, who was still a cardinal at the time.

At this time, Alexander VI noticed Nomerlo.

At that time, Nomelo had just arrived in Rome from his hometown in Aragon, and thanks to his friendship as a fellow countryman, Nomelo became an errand runner for Caesar, who was then Alexander VI's personal secretary.

Alexander VI had a unique vision, and when Caesar had to leave him, he chose Nomelo to succeed Caesar, and Caesar was willing to recommend this subordinate to the future pope, whether it was out of public or private interest, Caesar was willing to see this result.

Nomelo did not disappoint the father and son, and from the very beginning he showed all the virtues of being a secretary and assistant, even the title deeds of the various grange properties that Alexander VI had offered to bribe the cardinals in order to ascend the throne were all dealt with by him, and there was never a mistake.

It can be said that Alexander VI was able to successfully become the pope, and Nomelo's credit is not small, and it is from then on that Nomelo officially became one of the most powerful people in the Vatican as the pope's private secretary.

However, Nomelo is obviously very cautious, although he can be said to be one of the closest people to the Pope, but he rarely really appears on major occasions, and even when he needs to come out, he always stands behind the Pope's side, and never takes the initiative to show his face, let alone give orders at will as a person around the Pope.

Not only did he win the approval of Alexander VI for his cautious attitude, but even some cardinals and cardinals in the Vatican had a good opinion of him, because they knew that it would not be difficult for him to be "an agent of God's agent" in his capacity as a "god's agent".

Konomelo was a very cautious man, and he never slackened even when dealing with the Borgia family.

In the minds of many people, Nomelo was undoubtedly very close to the Borgia family, after all, he was already a member of the Borgia family.

But the fact is that with the exception of Alexander VI, Nomelo and the rest of the Borgia family, although close, have always maintained a certain distance, or always get along with the rest of the family within the limits that Alexander VI can tolerate, and even Caesar, who recommended him, has not been able to get more from Nomelo than the others.

And for the Borgia family, Nomelo is very familiar, he understands Caesar's ambitions, and also knows the ambiguous relationship between Giovanni and Geoffrey's wife Sanxia, as for the hot and cold relationship between Lucrezia and her husband, who is also named Giovanni, he is also clear, it can be said that Nomelo is not only the Pope's personal secretary, but also plays the role of Borgia's butler.

When he saw Caesar, who suddenly burst into the Potico Palace, desperate and almost crazy, Nomelo realized that something could be wrong.

If anyone really knows Caesar Borgia, Nomelo is obviously one of them, he knows very well how ambitious this playboy in the eyes of others actually is, and he also knows that he really wants to turn this ambition into reality, so when others are still talking about Caesar with various scandals, Nomelo is carefully observing the pope's beloved son, and at the same time, he will think about how to get along with the family who is obviously not so peaceful.

However, it was precisely because he knew Caesar that he felt the seriousness of the matter when he saw Caesar's almost irrational appearance, and after hearing that Lucrezia was almost assassinated, even the scheming Alexander VI couldn't help but be shocked.

And in the midst of this series of events, Nomelo heard a name - Alexandre Giuliante Gombray.

Lucrezia had never been in danger before, and even though everyone knew that she was the illegitimate daughter of the Pope and was favored by many people, no one had ever tried to attack her.

Even though many people called her and her brothers a symbol of the disgrace of the church, people were somewhat tolerant of this innocent girl who only liked gorgeous clothes and lively balls.

However, all this changed completely with the appearance of several whistleblower letters!

If Caesar had been interested in the origin of those letters, now all his attention was focused on Lucrezia's safety.

He had never imagined that someone would assassinate Lucrezia in front of him, and the horror caused by the moment when the terrible knife light smeared Lucrezia's slender neck made him not only completely frightened at the time, but even later thought about it, he completely lost his mind due to fear and anger.

Alexander VI was also surprised, even angry.

He knew that the whistleblowing letters were fake, but it was because he knew that he found it difficult for him to accept.

Who would suddenly assassinate Lucrezia at this time, and what good would it do to do so?

As these thoughts crossed his mind, Alexander VI suddenly did not want to speculate any further.

He just said to Nomerlo: "All this was brought by the one named Gombray, go to him." ”

Nomelo carried out the will of the Pope very seriously, and soon Alexander was brought before him.

When he saw Alexander again, Nomelo looked at him with a slightly curious gaze, and it was hard to imagine that everything seemed to be caused by this young man, although he also knew the origin of his so-called whistleblowing letters, but because of this, Nomelo felt that this young man was really in trouble.

"You're in big trouble, young man," said Nomelo to Alexander, who didn't mind telling the young man something, because he knew that in order for the young man to be honest and cooperative, he had to make him understand his situation, "because of the whistleblower you sent, one of whom was just in danger. ”

"Miss Lucrezia, I suppose, I heard about it before I came." Alexander asked calmly, he was telling the truth, the news of Lucrezia's near-assassination had spread throughout Rome at this time, and the Romans were secretly frightened in addition to surprise, and did not know what kind of revenge would be launched because of this Borgia family.

"Rumors are so fast," Nomelo whispered a little helplessly, then looked at Alexander, "Who do you think would assassinate such a young and innocent girl?" ”

Facing the scrutinizing gaze of the Pope's private secretary, Alexander hesitated slightly, and then spoke slowly: "Maybe someone who doesn't want her to get in the way, maybe for many people, her simplicity may be her fatal place." ”

"Is that so?"

Nomelo stared at Alexander carefully, and it was only then that Alexander noticed that the middle-aged man had gray eyes.

"You know, I'm from Aragon," said Nomelo suddenly, "my father was an alcoholic, and he drank almost everything of the family's value, and even my mother's dowry was squandered, so that my two younger sisters had to go to the convent because they couldn't pay the dowry. Although he stopped here, Alexander only listened silently without interjecting, and sure enough, Nomelo continued: "I was able to study at the University of Bologna because my family used to work for the Borgia family in the early years, do you know how much it costs a child of a declining aristocracy to have a good background, especially now that my position is entirely due to my own efforts and I enjoy all this, so I will do everything in my power to keep it all." ”

A hint of sarcasm flashed in Nomerlo's eyes as he stared at Alexander, "Listen, I have to do something to keep my current position, or many people will be willing to take over my current job, so don't embarrass me." ”

Alexander nodded silently, he knew that this person was talking to him so much, but the last sentence was the key.

"I know that girl you have in Marino's Palace, although she is a bohemian, but I heard that you like her very much, don't you," Nomelo said suddenly, and he smiled when he saw Alexander's eyes suddenly light up, "Don't be nervous, I'm just reminding you not to be too impulsive, now tell me who do you think is going to assassinate Lucrezia?" As he spoke, he then said in a heavy tone, "Don't rush to answer, think about it, understand, it's important." ”

Alexander looked at the private secretary's face and was silent for a moment before he spoke: "I think the person who assassinated Miss Lucrezia must have tried to benefit from her death, otherwise no one would want to hurt her." ”

The secretary nodded, as if approving, and then he continued, "And who do you think will benefit from this?" ”

"Judging from the letters I have presented to Your Majesty, I think you have guessed who is most likely to be the murderer."

Alexander's words made Nomelo's face sink slightly.

Whoever would be the murderer who tried to murder Lucrezia is suspected as long as no one can be directly identified, and if Alexander's words are any of his own, Nomelo thinks he is actually referring to someone.

Nomelo didn't believe that Alexander was so stupid that he couldn't even hear his simple hints, but he was still so vague, which made Nomelo think that he was either too stupid or too bold.

Either way, Nomelo didn't like it.

"It's not good for you to do this," Nomelo said, glaring at Alexander, "I remember that you brought those letters, and you were the one who made the accusations, so do you think you have nothing to do with it?" ”

Listening to the personal secretary's direct threat, Alexander's heart finally relaxed.

Being able to threaten like this actually shows that they don't really suspect that this assassination has something to do with him, at least they think that he can't have such courage.

It was true, even when Nashan heard that he was going to assassinate Lucrezia, he was surprised and wondered if he was crazy!

A small lord from Naples actually wanted to use the brains of the Pope's beloved daughter, and he was the kind who wanted her life, even the Bohemian, who was known for his audacity, looked at Alexander a little wrong at that time.

No one would have thought that he was the mastermind of the assassination, but anyone who knew a little about the origin of those letters could think of only one person, Giovanni Borgia!

Alexander VI would have thought of it, and Nomelo would have thought of it, and even if Caesar had known that the letters had been forged by Giovanni.

Nomelo knew that Alexander VI would never believe that Giovanni would do this, and even he did not believe that Giovanni would poison his own sister.

But what about Caesar?

Nomelo knew Caesar's ambitions and ambitions, and even the somewhat peculiar affection he had with Lucrezia, which was why he did not think that Caesar would be calm enough to face it after hearing the truth about the letters.

Perhaps, this was really Giovanni's doing?

For a moment, the terrible thought crossed Nomelo's mind, and he tried his best to suppress it.

"Or the person who wrote the letters." While Nomelo wondered whether to clear the young man's mind, Alexander finally continued: "These letters are from a man and a certain adult of the Sforza family, and it seems that the people of the Sforza family are dissatisfied that Miss Lucrezia's dowry has not been paid on time, or that the marriage has come to an end for them. ”

"Do you think so?" A relieved look appeared on Nomerlo's face, he walked back to the table, picked up the letters, looked at them, and then handed them to Alexander, "You brought these letters, so all these troubles should be solved by you." ”

Instead of answering the letters, Alexander looked at Nomelo and asked, "Do you want me to accuse Sforza?" ”

Nomelo stretched out his fingers and scratched the slightly thinning hair on the top of his head and sighed, "I know it may not be fair to you, but now it's only you who can step up to make this less bad." ”

Saying that, the private secretary shook his head slowly: "That's why I said, young man, you're in big trouble." ”

Listening to Nomelo's words, Alexander raised his eyebrows slightly.
