Chapter 168: Leaking Secrets and Running Away

Inside a country house on the eastern outskirts of Rome, Caesar. Although Borgia saved her life, she was also tossed by the domineering "Cantarella" poison, and her hair was lost, and her face became as terrifying as that of a demon. Writing "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Moreover, Caesar Borgia lay in bed for three whole days before he had the strength to speak.

Able to speak after Caesar. Borgia immediately called the attendants:

"Quick, go back to Rome and see how my father is doing!" Caesar at this time. Borgia, with fear in his eyes. It suddenly occurred to him that if he had been hit by Cantrera, would his father ......

He didn't dare to think anymore that the Borgia family had the current glory because his father became the pope. If his father died, even if he survived, he would have a hard time. Unless...... Like Archbishop Rovere, the archenemy of the Borgia family, he was able to support Innocent VIII as a puppet after the death of his papal uncle Sicktux IV. Moreover, this road seems to be very operable. Because, Caesar. Borgia now controls all the armies of the Papal States. This can be achieved by forcing the cardinals to submit by force.

So, Caesar. When Borgia came to his senses, he immediately sent his men back to Rome to find out the news......

Evening, Caesar. Borgia waited for the news that made him desperate - his father, Alexander VI, had died after failing to resist the poison of "Canterella......

Fortunately, the army in Rome, with the exception of a few who were co-opted by some cardinals, most of the officers obeyed Caesar. Borgia's order. Because, these are Caesars. Borgia pulled it up with one hand. The original old officers were all Caesar. Borgia was either killed or expelled.

After learning of his father's death, the scheming Caesar. Borgia decided to find a proxy to be the Pope, and he was behind it, acting as the mastermind behind the scenes, secretly controlling the Holy See, as Archbishop Rovere had done at the beginning.

So the next morning, Caesar. Borgia continued to send men to Rome to contact cardinals close to the Borgia family and get them to cooperate with him.

However, because the poison of "Cantarella" is too violent, Caesar. Even if Borgia picks up a life, in a short period of time, his body will not be able to recover. At least, he couldn't walk freely on the ground for a month.

As a result, he was now unable to return to Rome in time to take command in person. To make matters worse, Caesar. On the way back, the Borgia sent to Rome found a man who made Caesar. Borgia almost scared the hell out of the ......

It turned out that on the fourth day after the death of Alexander VI, Archbishop Rovere sent cronies to lurk outside the various gates of Rome to observe Caesar. Whether Borgia returns to the city. Once Caesar. Borgia is back in the city, which means that the net can be closed. At that time, 7,000 soldiers and horses hidden in the village of Doromia, 20 kilometers northwest of the city of Rome, will be able to attack the city directly.

But unfortunately, the cronies sent by Archbishop Rovere to Rome outside the east gate were accidentally killed by Caesar, who had just returned from Rome to the villa outside the east gate, during a change of duty with another person. One of Borgia's cronies found out......

As two rival families, the cronies of the two families also have some understanding of each other. And the cronies arranged by Archbishop Rovere outside the East City Gate happened to be Caesar. Borgia's cronies knew him.

So, Caesar's cronies quietly followed the cronies of Archbishop Rovere. Behind a wall, Caesar's cronies heard a very important message - Archbishop Rovere had hidden an army of 7,000 troops north of the city of Rome, waiting for Caesar. When Borgia returned to Rome, he immediately attacked the city......

Caesar's cronies hurried back to Caesar. Borgia reported the information. Caesar. Borgia was taken aback and almost peeed. Before, he also suspected that it was the mistake of the servants in the family who poisoned their father and son. But now, he has been determined - this is the hand of Archbishop Rovere. Moreover, they are even ready to go back to Rome and throw themselves into the net......

O army of seven thousand! If it were two or three thousand, Caesar. Borgia still has faith. But now, with only 2,000 soldiers and horses in the city and his father dead, morale is at its lowest. At this time, against the army of Archbishop Rovere, there is absolutely no chance of victory.

So, Caesar. Borgia made a decisive decision:

"Lucrezia, hurry up and pack your valuables, take your cronies with you, and run away together!"

"Okay, by the way, shall we inform my brother Jeffrey?" Jeffrey is the younger brother of the two, and has the same name as East Freesian Lamber Palace.

"I'm afraid it's too late, Jeffrey is in Squealice, we don't have time to inform him. Moreover, he has little involvement in his father's affairs, and he is a vassal of the French, so I don't think Archbishop Rovere will embarrass him. ”

Jeffrey. Borgia is currently the lord of Squerache and Alberto, both of which are in the Kingdom of Naples. Borgia married the dowry of Sanxia, the princess of the Neapolitan kingdom of the original House of Aragon. Of course, the Kingdom of Naples gave these two pieces of land to Geoffrey. The territory of Borgiadam, Alexander VI also made corresponding political compensations.

Today, the French occupy the northern half of the Kingdom of Naples, which includes Squealice and Alberto. Seeing that the French were powerful, and Alexander VI and Louis XII were also allies, Geoffrey. Borgia simply took refuge with the French.

On top of that, Jeffrey. Borgia had always had a strained relationship with his father, Alexander VI, and Jeffrey had little involvement in Alexander VI's. It's Caesar. Borgia, in the of Alexander VI, was the absolute protagonist. As for Lucrezia, she is also more involved. Therefore, Caesar. Borgia directly planned to run away with his sister......

"Our possessions in the city of Rome?" Lucrezia was apparently reluctant to take on the Borgia family's mansion in Rome.

Caesar. Borgia was also reluctant to have a staggering amount of wealth at the moment, but he knew better that the Borgia family's mansion must be under surveillance at this time. At this time, go back and get the money, and it will definitely be delivered to the door. Even if you send your subordinates, you can't do it, as long as you dare to move things out of the mansion, you will definitely be followed, and then you will find yourself...... What is the use of all that wealth if he dies?

So, Caesar. Borgia, a heroic figure, made a decision directly:

"We went around from the south of the city to the sea, and sailed to Sicily to seek refuge in the Kingdom of Aragon!"

Once, Alexander VI spent 50,000 gold coins to buy a territory from Spain. Even if you can't take most of your possessions with you this time, relying on that territory, Caesar. Borgia will not have to worry about food and clothing in the future.

Eventually, Caesar. Borgia persuaded her sister to empty the country house of its valuables, and with her retinue, she took a detour directly south of the city of Rome to the seashore and boarded a ship to Sicily......

But before leaving, Caesar. Borgia left a few cronies and told them to go to other cities in the Papal States and inform the local defenders that they would not surrender to the new pope first. Caesar. Borgia's plan was to exchange control of those cities for the new pope's pardon...... Otherwise, if you want, go and attack......

Also, Caesar. Borgia also sent back to Rome and told the Roman Cardinal that Archbishop Rovere had returned with a large army and was hiding in the north of Rome......

Caesar. Borgia was a very powerful move, because he knew very well that although there were people in the current Cardinal Order, although there were people from Archbishop Rovere, after the cleansing of his father Alexander VI, there were definitely not many, only a small part. The others, and Archbishop Rovere are not all the way. Many people, especially the cardinals of Alexander VI, were certainly reluctant to see Archbishop Rovere ascend to the papal position.

Caesar. Borgia reminded the Cardinals that they were actually forcing the Cardinals to end their differences sooner rather than later, and that it would be better to elect a new pope before Archbishop Rovere's army captured Rome. In this way, even if Archbishop Rovere occupied Rome, he would not dare to do anything to the new pope, at most, he could only be a shadow pope...... And this, too, is Caesar. Borgia made the last stumbling block against his sworn enemy, Archbishop Rovere......
