Assistes looked at the expressionless Davers, hesitated slightly, and finally said his thoughts: "It is better to allow the surrendered Roman nobles to apply to become Dionian citizens, but their families must be broken up and dispersed to other parts of the kingdom to re-accept the distribution of land......"

After listening to this, Davers did not speak, looked at Asistes, and understood in his heart: Obviously, Asistes has not been idle in the past few days, and has been thinking about a solution to the Roman aristocracy......

Davers looked around at the others, their faces more or less puzzled: Could it really be the influence of my past life that made me feel an inexplicable fear of the Romans?

There was also a hint of confusion in Davers's heart, he pondered for a while, and said slowly to Assistes: "You can try the surrender of the Roman nobles, but only after the defeat of the Roman army. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Arcestes furrowed his brow.

But Davers did not think that he had much hope of success, after all, it would be difficult to deprive the Roman nobility of their wealth, dig up their roots, and want to bring them to their knees!

At this time, Nicomarcus said, "Your Majesty, I have a question. ”

Davers looked at him.

Nikomachus patted his seat and asked curiously, "Why is this seat so different from the one in the back?" Not only is it made of ivory, but it is also padded with cowhide, which is very comfortable to sit on. ”

"This is the peculiarity of the Roman Senate, and the chairs you sit in are located in the front row in the center of the room, and only the most prestigious and distinguished senators in Rome can sit in them, so they must be distinguished from the other seats." Davers explained briefly.

Nicomarcus looked suddenly enlightened: "I didn't expect the Roman senators to know how to enjoy." ”

He also turned to the others and said, "Come and sit down in a moment, and feel what it's like to be the most honorable senator in Rome." ”

Everyone laughed, and the atmosphere in the venue suddenly relaxed a lot.

Davers looked at Nick Marcus, who had a sense of humor, with a smile on his face, and it was also interesting that there was a witty politician among the people of Lockley, who had been living under strict punishment.

In a relaxed atmosphere, the meeting came to an end, and finally Davers encouraged everyone: "Ladies and gentlemen, whether we can gain a foothold in Latin depends on your governance of Rome!" ”

……………………………………

At dusk, the Roman administrative adjutant Walquez hurried to Davers with the new Roman magistrate Polutarchs, and reported to him: "...... A total of 531 people applied to become citizens of Theoria, including 367 Roman slaves and 164 Roman commoners, and many Roman commoners were waiting......"

"Well done, Valquez! Keep up the good work and you will become a good Kingdom official! Davers spared no sparing praise for his praise.

Valquez grinned, happy to laugh but afraid to laugh out loud, looking a little funny.

Davers did not care, and continued: "Early tomorrow morning, you will gather these Romans who are going to become citizens of Dionya and assign them dwellings......"

"Polutax."

"Your Majesty!"

"Go back and tell Assistes that as soon as the Romans have allocated their dwellings, they will begin preparations to allocate land to them, and at the same time arrange positions for those Romans who are willing to hold public office, and make a little more noise!"

"Understood, Your Majesty. When I returned, I told Lord Assistes. ”

Davers looked at Valquez again and said kindly: "Valquez, the new administrator of Rome, Assistes, has just arrived, he is your superior, just like the previous Roman consul, you need to discuss with him in the future, and he will also arrange some new tasks for you, he is a very good person, I believe you can work well together and govern Rome well!" ”

Valquez roughly understood Davers's words, and although he was a little disappointed, he respectfully said yes.

After seeing them off, Davers sat down on a wooden chair and closed his eyes to rest, when Hennepolis came in and reported to him: "Your Majesty, Amylius has asked to see you." ”

Davers' eyes widened slightly: "Let him in." ”

Originally a Latin slave, Amylius was bought by the Dioria intelligence service ten years ago, and after several years of special training, he was sent to the Latin region to collect intelligence on the region and create the Latin Intelligence Group.

After Davers led his army to attack Latium, he ordered him to lead his subordinates to accompany the army.

The intelligence leader was actually only in his 30s, but he looked older than his actual age, and because he became a slave when he was a teenager and often starved, he was thin and small, but Davers did not look down on him because of his appearance, but said to him kindly: "Amylius, what surprise have you brought me?!" ”

You know, after the Roman army invaded Helniki, the detailed information about the emptiness of the city of Rome was sent to Turiyi in time by this unremarkable guy, and finally made Davers make up his mind to attack Rome first. He also drew a map of the city of Ostia and sent it to the palace in time, allowing Davers to find the key to quickly capture the port town.

Amylius stood in front of Davers, and after bowing respectfully, he said eagerly: "Your Majesty! My men have infiltrated the Roman civilians, and today they have heard the alarming news that some of the Roman civilians want to turn against you! ”

"Oh?" Davers was not surprised by this, and he had been attacked several times over the years, and he had become somewhat accustomed to it, and he motioned with his eyes for Amylius to continue.

"Your Majesty, when you were giving a speech in the square, I noticed that some civilians were dissatisfied, but did not speak out against it. After your speech, several of them did not apply to become our citizens, nor did they follow the orders of the soldiers and return to their houses, but quietly went to a house on the hill of Sirio for a while, and then returned to the square and whispered to some of the civilians who had been before...... My men approached them quietly, and I vaguely heard them talking about things like 'Camillus, Roman army', and even mentioning your name...... Then five or six of the Roman civilians began to line up to apply to become Ionian citizens......"

Davers pondered as he listened: "It seems that these Romans are preparing to attack me when the Roman army is attacking......"

"Your Majesty, I thought the same way, so I hurried to report to you." Amylius said as if to take credit.

"Who lives in that dwelling on Hill Sirio?" Davers asks a crucial question.

Amylius had already prepared, and he immediately replied: "I have sent for an inquiry, and the owner of the house is called Gaius. Licinius. Stolo. ”

The name gave Davers some familiarity, but he had never known and approached this Roman before, which made him wonder: Could it be a historical celebrity?

“…… Although he was a Roman commoner, he was very influential among the common people, because his father was a military officer in the previous year, and he had just married a famous Roman senator named ...... Called Febius...... Ambustus's daughter—"

Davos's heart moved, and he waved his hand to interrupt him, asking, "You mean that he, as a commoner, married Febius, the great nobleman of Rome?!" ”

It is no wonder that Davers was surprised, according to his knowledge of Rome, the reason why it was difficult for Roman commoners to cross the threshold of nobility was because the Roman nobility imposed strict restrictions on them, and even the law that "nobles and commoners are not allowed to intermarry" was clearly engraved on the twelve bronze pillars.

"Yes, Your Majesty. Because he was the first commoner to marry the daughter of a great nobleman, many Roman commoners regarded him as a source of pride and example to the plebeians. "And this man himself is quite good, although he is only 21 years old, he has already participated in several battles, and he has won the civic crown once for his outstanding exploits, and he was wounded in the battle between Wolsey and our First Army, and has been recuperating at home, so he did not follow Camillus's army to Helniki ......."

Davers mused: In recent years, Rome was invaded by the Celts and the Roman commoners fled several times, so that these Roman nobles felt the crisis and began to gradually give in to the commoners, and the military and political officials can let the Roman civilians serve is the best example. This man's father served as a Roman military official, and he also made the patriarch of the Febius clan marry his daughter, but was not punished by Roman law, which shows that the Roman aristocracy has begun to have an interesting approach to talented and appealing commoners...... Fortunately, our attack came in time, and if the Licinian Law in Rome had been promulgated and the conflict between the nobles and the commoners had been alleviated, it would have been much more difficult for Dionya to dismantle Rome in the current way...... Wait a minute! Lisinifa?!

At this time, Amylius remembered something again, and continued: "Oh, by the way, this Licinius may not look young, but he is well versed in Roman law, and often writes pleadings for the common people for free, so he is deeply loved by the Roman commoners......"

"Gaius. Licinius. Stolo ......" Davos whispered the name, and a thought suddenly popped into his heart: could this person be the Roman tribune in the history of Rome who had fought for many years and finally had the Senate pass the Licinian Law that gave Roman civilians relatively equal rights?!

It is a pity that Davers's college major in his previous life was not history, but he had simply learned about the "Licinius Law", which greatly influenced the course of Roman history, in the class of "Western Legal History", and did not remember the name of the person who made this law, nor did he remember the era at that time, so he was not very sure.
