Accompany Da Vinci's Super God Day

I heard that the lord from Milan has successfully proposed marriage, and a grand wedding will be held in the Alberti family's mansion next month.

While Heidi was determining the fermentation speed and production scale of penicillin, she was listening to various arguments from various sources——

Some people said that the amorous and domineering lord tamed the charming noble lady by coaxing and cheating, while others said that this was another deal between the two nobles.

Others claimed to have seen Sforza having fun outside with other sex - but that seems dubious.

Heidi listened to these gossips, but didn't take those alarmist conspiracy theories seriously.

Aristocratic marriages were quite common in this day and age—as was the case with Lorenzo's sister.

The relationship between the Medici family and the Rucellai family is close and friendly, and they also have many business contacts.

The mansion where she went to the late-night emergency room last time was located in the west of the city, where the new textile district was developed, and even the entire workshop she bought was nearby.

The young Mr. Rucelle not only has ancient blood, but also has a good relationship with the Medici brothers. Ten years ago, they went to celebrate the election of Pope Sixtus IV together.

Political marriage can not only exchange resources and stabilize the situation, but also help unite to resist foreign enemies.

She recovered and continued to look at the data on the notebook, feeling light and happy in her heart.

Thanks to Da Vinci, the mold on the melon was purified and fermented, and the speed was raised to a level that made people breathe a sigh of relief.

If the factory continues to expand in the future, they can even provide a stable supply of medicines for the entire city.

This emerging drug is of course expensive and rare, but at least it can already treat two or three patients every month.

The wealthy people vaguely heard the news, and began to show their favor to the Medici family with a more enthusiastic attitude.

It was at this juncture that Lorenzo summoned her again.

"Council of 100? Me?"

"Think about it?" Lorenzo lowered his head to approve the documents on water conservancy ditches, and said in a calm tone: "An old gentleman died of a stroke. If you want to participate, Mr. Rucelle and several other people from the leadership team are willing to participate." Choose you."

She froze for a moment, her expression still a little uneasy.

It wasn't that she was terrified of politics, or that she was cowardly and weak.

It's this sudden overture, which is a little sudden and beyond cognition.

"What are you thinking?" He finally raised his head and looked at her expression for two seconds: "You are doubting."

"Are there any women in this 100-member council you mentioned?"

"Not before." Lorenzo took a sip of water and said, "But now we can."

"Is it safe enough?"

The lord was silent for a few seconds, then slowly stood up.

"I'm afraid you've made a mistake."

"Arranging you in this kind of place is to make you more majestic and get more protection from prominent people."

Heidi suddenly understood the implication of his two words.

She is not safe now.

The reason is also because of the new medicine that suddenly appeared in the world.

Any precious and beautiful things in this world are destined to be spied on and plundered.

And the penicillin in her hands is a medicine that can repel diseases that many doctors have been completely unaware of for hundreds of years. It is almost like a miracle that people can kneel down for it.

If Heidi's existence is just a woman who knows this formula, she may be directly wiped out of existence, and the Medici will seal up this secret alone.

But what she understands is far greater than this thing that is revered by many nobles.

It can even be said that she is like a miracle itself.

From microbiology to maternity and child care, from medicine preparation to the deduction of the pattern of war, there is room for her to play in almost any field.

And unlike those visionaries who like to talk in general terms, almost everything she puts forward can be verified and used immediately.

Leonardo da Vinci could take months to prove that his dredging method works, and there are quite a few charlatans peddling so-called miracle medicines under the guise of heresy.

But only the penicillin she injected could make people's symptoms disappear that night, which was much more effective than bloodletting enemas.

This kind of existence cannot be plundered or obliterated.

If you want to make long-term profits, you can only give it the greatest degree of protection and association.

"First of all, your current identity is a distant relative of the Medici family, but you are also a nobleman."

He walked around the desk and approached her slowly.

The deep and melodious voice was as smooth as velvet, as if it was broadcast by a radio station.

"Secondly, it is not uncommon for women to participate in politics."

Heidi came back to her senses and took a deep breath.

"Eleanor of Aquitaine to Margaret I, right?"

He laughed: "You can't be a queen, but you can still be loyal to me."

In the Middle Ages, women also had a profound influence on politics and warfare.

For example, the mother of the Lionheart King, Eleanor, known as the "grandmother of Europe", married the king of France and the king of England several hundred years ago, and was still in charge of British politics in her 70s. The Crusades raised wages and recruited soldiers, and even went to Germany alone with a huge ransom to rescue his son.

Another example is Queen Margrethe I of Denmark, who seized power at the age of 22 and unified Sweden and Norway in the years that followed.

Ironically, in the past hundred years, the status of women has continued to decline, and they have even been denounced as evil existences.

——The Holy See and today's mainstream Christianity believe that women are depraved creatures that "induce men to sin" and do not deserve to be educated and treated equally.

But Lorenzo himself was a rebellious lord. He could openly confront the Pope, and he could encourage Botticelli to create many pagan myths. Everything he did was based on the interests of the family and himself.

If Heidi joins this parliament-like organization, she can serve as another mouthpiece of the Medici, and jointly assist him in passing decrees in more fields.

"I'll join." She laughed: "I'm so happy."

The news quickly spread from the inside to the various families. Some people began to curse directly in anger, while others heaved a sigh of relief.

In terms of reputation, it can be said that Heidi's popularity in Florence has increased. She has saved many people's wives and children, and she also has a magic medicine that is so precious that it can bring the dead back to life.

She shared the recipe for the preparation of light blue oil paint, which made many painters breathe a sigh of relief, and also supported many absenteeism in the surrounding cities - gall alum was once mined and sold in large quantities, and it was also quite common at Christmas stalls .

Master Keisler is erudite, benevolent, and magnanimous. Many scholars were shocked by his speeches at the Florence Academy, and admirers and admirers abound.

Just as importantly, she is also one of the Medici who guard the entire city.

That's a strong enough reason.

Today's People's Assembly and elections are abolished, and there is no struggle between opposing parties.

Just last year, Lorenzo restructured the political system, setting up a council composed of 30 leaders and 70 members.

This adopts the ancient lifelong system, and the vacancies are replaced by internal elections. In fact, it is an autocratic monarchy and centralization in disguise.

When Heidi heard the news last year, she lamented the necessity of centralization in this era——

Rather than having a bunch of idiots who don't know anything take turns steering the steering wheel, it's better to weld a person who understands to the seat of the car.

But combining this reform with her current selection, it seems that there are some subtle connections before and after.

After all, it is an existing rule to use 30 people to elect the remaining 70 people, and her addition is all in line with the norms to the extent of forced coincidence.

On the day Heidi was elected, Mr. Ruchelle presented her with a medal of honor with a smile, and the people in the audience were either laughing or silently applauding.

She turned her head to look at the crowd, and then at the lord at the highest position.

Then he smiled quite calmly.

From the beginning, Heidi knew why he supported someone like her.

——Because it is very easy to control, it can even be said that he has all the handles on her.

If the two of them are on the same interest standpoint, she has neither family background nor party affiliation, even if she has excellent ability, it will not affect his power.

If one day she defected or had a different heart, from her bloodline to the taboos she had committed over the years, he could take her to the Holy See and burn her to death at any time.

What a shrewd businessman.

On the occasion of the Assumption Day, Da Vinci finally completed nearly half of the project, and the results are quite gratifying.

He successfully solved several dangerous traffic problems, improved the large and small defects of the canal, and more importantly, he brought the lord a more complete and clear map, and built a sufficiently stable fortification.

Once a foreign enemy attacks, the people in the city can quickly reach the commanding heights and bombard them with firecrackers.

Heidi deliberately read his manuscript, and suddenly realized that she had already gotten used to this genius-like existence.

After marveling again and again, I could only smile and shake my head to express my appreciation.

If this kind of person lived in modern times, he would probably be recruited by the fbi immediately.

In this age of information occlusion, a clear three-dimensional map is like a powerful weapon, and he even knows how to use semi-three-dimensional painting to express geological conditions.

As soon as the Feast of the Assumption arrives, people start to take vacations.

The hot and dry summer in the Mediterranean climate makes people irritable. The scorching sun has closed many shops, and the city is much quieter than before.

Da Vinci was not idle, and took her to see the elevator he designed.

The two went to the fort by the city wall in a carriage, and many craftsmen were still busy.

"With this thing I invented - soldiers can climb the city wall at the fastest speed, which is many times faster than climbing stairs!"

With a smile in Da Vinci's dark amber eyes, he motioned her to take a closer look.

Heidi looked at the gear mechanism next to her, and then looked up at the lifting platform.

"Does it have a name?"

"not yet……"

"I have a suggestion." She turned to look at him with a serious expression, "'elevator' is a good word."

-2-

Da Vinci's design is obviously a large elevator designed with multiple axle devices, and it has now been put into use——

During their conversation, many bricks and paints and craftsmen were transported up.

Compared with the landing gear used in building churches, the one he created is more stable and load-bearing.

Heidi walked around the city wall with him for a long time, and decided to walk back with him.

Although the weather is hot, it is actually not bad to walk in the shade.

"I've always had a very curious question, what does your name have to do with Finch?"

Da Vinci's footsteps paused slightly, and he looked sideways at her: "Finqi was originally a place name."

"Place name? Isn't it the suffix of some family?"

"Leonardo di Piero da Vinci," he paused, his tone more self-deprecating, "Leonardo, the son of Piero, a gentleman born in the town of Vinci."

He is actually a man without a surname.

Heidi was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly remembered the information he had revealed when they first met.

Leonardo... he was actually an illegitimate child.

"As of this year, my father finally got his second son." He stopped and leaned against the wall, as if adjusting his emotions.

The dark brown wall ash rubbed onto his robe, leaving a layer of black stains on the cloth that had been well taken care of.

"This is... his fourth marriage."

Heidi froze for a moment, and stood beside him with some anxiety.

Leonardo rarely spoke of his pain to her, or to anyone else.

As for family background and parents, the tone is basically not mentioned.

But all along, she thought he had a good relationship with Mr. Piero.

That gentleman would keep an eye on the progress of his paintings, and even offered a few good commissions.

If it wasn't for him, maybe they would not be sponsored and supported by the lord now.

The noisy cicadas made people tired. Da Vinci closed his eyes and leaned against the wall, as if he finally wanted to confide in something.

He already trusted her enough.

Heidi observed his expression and gave him encouragement.

"I won't tell anyone."

There are not even birds here, and no one will overhear your secrets.

The young man with brown hair and brown eyes slowly opened his eyes and told her a story in a low voice.

Once upon a time, there was a girl named Caterina, whose parents died at the age of 14, and had a skin relationship with a man at the age of 16.

She soon became pregnant and became happy and nervous.

But the man she fell in love with was a young man from a family of notaries, and a man who was about to marry.

They do not belong to the same identity and class, and there is no possibility of marriage.

Leonardo was born on a Saturday. When he was baptized, almost all the country gentlemen, relatives and friends were present, even more than ten godfathers and godmothers came.

In that small town, his father had status and prestige, and even an illegitimate child could get everyone's respect and blessing.

"After all, this is the golden age of illegitimate children." He suddenly laughed: "Without his surname, I cannot inherit his position, but this may be a good thing for him."

Heidi was silent for a while, then asked, "What happened next?"

"later?"

Not long after Leonardo was born, Piero arranged for his mother to marry an ordinary kiln worker who was blessed by their family.

In the same year, Piero and the lady from Florence officially married and started a new life.

His mother soon gave birth to four daughters and a son with the kiln worker, while Piero and his wife have never had children.

Then, he lost his wife one after another, and started to continue again and again.

It wasn't until this year that he had a half-brother -- and the age difference was more than [-] years.

Heidi suddenly understood many things when she heard Leonardo talking about these past events in a leisurely manner.

Historically, he has been judged as a suspected asexual or homosexual existence.

In front of her, he also had no interest in love, and even a little disgusted with intimacy.

All this stems from his childhood.

The father lived far away in Florence, and the mother was busy taking care of the five children.

For the first five years of his life, he lived with his grandparents.

No motherly love, no fatherly love, no intimacy of any kind to give him comfort and warmth.

How lonely and helpless it must be for a small child.

If he didn't feel the most sincere and unconditional love when he was young, who would teach him this way when he grows up?

And who can make him let go of his guard and repression, and accept the existence of intimacy?

It's not that he can't love, it's that he has never been loved, and he can't love.

"Wait..." Leonardo was in the middle of speaking, and suddenly noticed that his friend's eyes were slightly red, as if he was controlling some emotions.

He subconsciously raised a smile, and said in a lighter tone: "Don't show such a sad expression, I still have someone to take care of me."

Heidi frowned and looked at him, and sighed for a long time.

"For example, my uncle Francesco, although he is called 'doing nothing' by my father, he is very kind to me." Leonardo's tone slowed down a lot: "When my stomach hurts, he He will try to find a way to make me more comfortable, he is a very kind person.”

No... those are not rewards for you, but something you should have.

Heidi couldn't think of words to comfort him, but she could truly feel everything he faced in childhood.

Absence of parents, division of original family, separate marriage and childbirth of parents and family reorganization...

It is not easy for a child to grow up without guidance and companionship, and gradually get to where he is today.

"These things have passed, you don't need to be sad." Leonardo patted her on the shoulder, as if he was just talking about other people's stories: "Relax."

The next second, he was hugged deeply, and he was stunned there.

Da Vinci didn't dance with anyone, and rarely had close contact with the opposite sex.

Even when the noble ladies approached him, he behaved politely and restrained, completely different from the men who were eager to strike up a conversation.

Because of this, he has always been praised as a polite gentleman, with just the right proportions at all times.

But at this moment, the warmth and enthusiasm of this hug made him feel strange and at a loss.

His two hands were raised subconsciously, not even knowing where to put them.

At this moment, he could smell the scent of camellia in her hair, and the slender and white hands wrapped around his waist.

What's even more amazing is the warmth she conveyed to herself.

The necks of the two were intertwined, and their chests were passing warmth like beasts snuggling together.

It's obviously a hot summer day, but when holding her, it doesn't seem to feel wet or uncomfortable at all, instead it makes people feel relaxed and want to take a long breath.

Whether this warmth is the temperature given by the skin when it is close, or what he finally got in his heart, it is difficult to analyze in these few seconds.

He was so stiff that he didn't dare to move, he reached out and patted her on the back lightly, indicating that she could let go of him.

"I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me like this."

But the girl hugged him even tighter, and said sullenly: "Actually, you also have the right to say bad things about you."

"Leo, you don't have to live so tiringly."

Whether you are injured or ill, even if you are angry and sad because of trivial things, you can still complain.

"In the past few years, everyone has praised you for being perfect and calm, and for being gentle and considerate to everyone."

"But, you can also be yourself—at least in front of me."

She finally loosened her arms slowly, looking at him with light blue eyes, with a helpless and gentle expression.

"Even if you are not so perfect and not so good, the world will not hurt you."

He opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but at the moment he felt a little wronged in his heart.

This kind of emotion has never appeared before, as if it has been forgotten in a corner for many years.

"I...I didn't..."

"You can also be angry, and you can also ask or hope." Heidi reached out to help him brush the dangling hair behind his ears, her tone was firm and gentle: "Our care and love for you don't require you to rely on day-to-day Protect yourself by demanding yourself one day."

Da Vinci was silent for a long time, lowering his head as if he had done something wrong.

He was almost 30 years old, but at this moment standing in front of her, he still looked like a nervous and apprehensive teenager.

"Can you... hug me again?" he asked softly.

Heidi raised a smile, opened her arms and hugged him tightly.

"You deserve to be loved, too," she repeated, "and I always will be."

Da Vinci took a deep breath and hugged her back, his eyes suddenly turned red.

He has to come to terms with the disappearance of his parents, as well as various half-siblings and half-siblings.

From his own background to one family after another who are like strangers, no one has asked for his opinion, but he has to bear the pain caused by these choices.

His mother had the time and energy to love those five children, but she never asked him why he was shivering.

Leonardo closed his eyes, feeling the warmth of this last second.

He didn't want to let go.
