In the year 1476, the Assassin Giovanni Auditore skipped dinner with his family to intercept Rodrigo Borgia, who was roaming the streets of Florence. Ambushing Rodrigo and his men, Giovanni subdued two of Borgia's guards and kept one alive for interrogation. As Rodrigo fled, Giovanni reported to Lorenzo de' Medici about his investigations, stating to Lorenzo how an important event would affect the balance of power in Florence. The Medici, along with Uberto Alberti, then interrogated Giovanni's captive while torturing him on the rack, making him reveal the details of Borgia's plan: an assassination was planned for Duke Galeazzo Maria Sforza during the Feast of Saint Stephen in Milan, to be carried out by Rodrigo's allies. To this, Lorenzo immediately ordered Giovanni to stop the assassination by going to Milan.
