Chapter 161: Poison the pope
Pope Alexander VI is chatting with his beloved son Caesar Pogia in Rome, Italy, in the living area behind the Basilica of Saint John of Latran in Rome, the mother church of Christ World.
At this time it was mid-August, and the weather in Rome was still very hot. Therefore, both father and son wore thin silk clothes. On the side, some servants are still fanning the two big men. At the same time, the ice cubes stored last year were cooling around the room.
As one of Italy's richest families, the Borgia family naturally has money to spend luxury. Although it was said that when he ran for the Pope, Alexander VI almost wiped out the family's funds. However, when he became the pope, Alexander VI frantically collected money.
In order to achieve the purpose of collecting money, Alexander VI, the most shameless pope in history, openly auctioned the position of the cardinal, and the highest price was obtained. Moreover, the archbishop of the bishopric of Germany must also pay money in order to be recognized by the Holy See.
Although it is said that the appointment of some small bishops in the German region requires the support of one of the three religious electors of Archbishop Cologne, Archbishop Mainz and Archbishop Trier, but even if it was supported, he served as Pope Alexander VI During the period, if you do not pay tens of thousands of gold coins to the Pope, the Holy See will not be able to award you a letter of appointment. Therefore, in the German region, the bishops of the bishopric who took office during the reign of Alexander VI were unlucky and had to accept the extortion of Alexander VI.
This is pretty good. In the Holy See, those cardinals who were not part of Alexander VI ’s partisans really fell **** for eight lifetimes.
A few years ago, when Alexander VI first came to power, he was still a bit more conservative. In these years, Alexander VI has firmly controlled the Papal State and began to mess up.
He started auctioning the position of bishop through his son Caesar Borgia. After receiving the money, what should we do if the number of bishops is full now? No problem, my Borgia family has the magical chronic poison Cantrera. Say, did you fall in love with the cardinal of that diocese? Ah, that doesn't work, it's you. Well, this parish ... no problem, wait a few days for me ...
In a blink of an eye, Pope Alexander VI himself or Caesar Borgia would invite the bishop to eat and drink. Then, a few days later, the cardinal who had done a good job in the former diocese came to hear of the poisoning. After that, Caesar Borgia will kindly tell the person who paid before, you can go to office ...
Moreover, the poisoned bishop, the unlucky bishop, and his family's property will also be robbed by Caesar Pogia's men. After all, Caesar Borgia is the supreme military commander of the Papal State. Who can cross him in the city of Rome?
Those cardinals are nominally single, even if they have illegitimate children, dare to jump out and compete for his father's legacy? Whoever jumps out will be killed by Caesar Borgia. Even the original family descendant of the Cardinal cannot compete with the robbers of Caesar Borgia unless they want to die.
The most exaggerated one was a cardinal named Ferrari. After he was poisoned, Caesar Pogia took a huge fortune of 5 million Wankat from the residence of the dead bishop Ferrari.
Another time, a cardinal named Mikieki was probably poisoned by Borgia and his son. Excessively, Bishop Mikieki had just died, and the body had not cooled. A large number of Caesar Pogia ’s men rushed directly into the residence of Bishop Mikieki and stolen the 150,000 Ducat gold coins property……
In fact, the father and son of Borgia have already created a terrifying atmosphere in the city of Rome. So that those cardinals, in addition to the running dogs of Alexander VI, everyone is in danger. Even the running dogs of Alexander VI, if they have more possessions, will feel fear, for fear of being remembered by Borgia and his son.
Now, in the city of Rome, the pope invited to dinner, has become one of the most feared things for cardinals and nobles. Because, one week after eating, you are likely to be poisoned and killed ... Then, a group of Caesar. Borgia's savage men will rush to your home to **** property ...
...
At noon, the Pope and his son chatted in the room, and beside them, they were their most trusted loyal servants. So, speaking of this, the infamous father and son of the Pope also do not shy away:
"Caesar, is there any suitable goal recently?" Alexander VI took a sip of wine and asked his son.
"One, I recently fell in love with Cardinal Cornetto, intending to invite him to drink ... This old guy has a large territory, is very wealthy, and is a fat sheep ..." If you ask someone to drink, you want the other party Dead.
"Corneto's old thing? You may not ask him to move, so let's go to their house as a guest." Alexander VI thought about it and planned to go out in person. Cornetto is a very senior figure in the Roman Cardinal Council, and Caesar Pogia's face is not enough to look at unless he is strong. And if Alexander VI personally went out, whether or not he wanted, Bishop Cornetto must also give face.
Now, the Cardinals in Rome have dared not eat the meal that the Pope and his son requested. In desperation, Borgia and his son planned to go to the door in person, and then let their servants wait for the opportunity to poison the other party's wine ...
Early the next morning, Alexander VI, with his son Caesar Pogia, visited Cardinal Cornetto and went to the bishop's castle in the city of Rome.
Because it was too hot, after entering the castle of Bishop Cornetto, Alexander VI quickly ordered his loyal servants to bring water to find:
"Paul, hurry and get us some water. This ghost weather is so hot!" Alexander VI commanded while wiping sweat.
On the side, a handsome man named Paul in his early thirties quickly responded and went to find water ...
In the castle's kitchen, Paul, who had a thick face, found two large bowls filled with cool well water. But before taking the two large bowls of well water to the living room, while no one was paying attention, Paul quickly took out a white, unscented powder from his pocket, put it in the two bowls of water, and stirred it.
After pouring this white powder into the water, it quickly dissolved in the water, did not change the color of the water, and did not give off any taste. Even if you taste it with your mouth, there is no strange smell. Of course, insiders will not die like this ...
After calming down the tense mood, this "faithful servant" named Paul restored a humorous, expressionless face, put two large bowls of well water into the living room, and handed it to Alexander VI Father and Son ...
The father and son of Alexander VI did not doubt him ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ directly swallowed it. Then, wait for the appearance of Cardinal Cornetto ...
It is a pity that Cardinal Cornetto was very cautious and refused to drink on the grounds that he was ill. When entertaining the father and son of Alexander VI, Bishop Cornetto always persuaded the father and son of Alexander VI to eat and drink, but he didn't eat much, and only ate some bread ...
The father and son of Alexander VI immediately dumbfounded that the other party did not drink, how to poison? Is it necessary to spread the poison "Cantrera" on the other party's bread? Isn't it obvious to the other party?
In desperation, the father and son of Alexander VI went back so depressed ...
It's just that they didn't know that although they did not poison Cardinal Cornetto successfully, they themselves were successfully poisoned ... Now, after only a week, the toxicity exploded ...
