Arcistes looked at this aunt, who was more than ten years younger than himself, and spoke to himself apologetically, although he had a lot of opinions about Laodisian, but for Doreen, he still felt that the wife chosen by Antonios was very good, so he said euphemistically: "How can I be angry with my uncle, it's just that it's a little late, we should go home too, and we'll come back another day." ”

As he spoke, he said meaningfully to Antonios: "Uncle, you are thinking about what I just said. ”

As soon as Antonios "snorted", Doreen punched him again, swallowing the rest of the words into his stomach.

After sending the Asisteres family away, Doreen said to Antonios in disgust, "What the hell is going on? You have such a big temper. ”

"It's business, don't ask." Antonios said angrily.

"Okay, I don't ask! Don't talk to me much in the future! Doreen pouted angrily.

"Alright, alright, I was wrong...... Antonios, the kingdom's military minister and in his 50s, hurriedly hugged Doreen in his arms and apologized repeatedly: "Arcises did not agree with my election of him as the administrator of Naxos, and the result was ...... There was a quarrel. ”

"Why? Is it bad to be the chief executive of Naxos? Doreen wondered.

"Who knows what he thinks. Yassi's wings are stiff now, and he doesn't want to listen to my uncle! Antonios said a little angrily.

"Anyway, he's your only nephew." Doreen stretched out her hand, stroked Antonios' bearded face, kissed it lightly, and her eyes showed charm: "Antedoris is running and jumping tonight, Yuna can easily lull him to sleep in a while, I took a shower and waited for you in the house......"

"Okay, good ......" was seduced by his wife, but the fire in Antonios' heart was even stronger.

Doreen married him at the age of 17, more than 20 years younger than him, not only beautiful but also virtuous, and bore him a son, so that Antonios, who had always felt that he was too old and guilty, was extremely fond of her, and therefore loved the house and Wu, and took good care of his father Laodisian and his family.

Watching his wife's slender figure walk towards the main building, he couldn't wait.

"Antonios! Antonios! Something is wrong! Something is wrong! ......" At this moment, the eager shouts of Laodisian were heard in the corridor.

In Anton Ríos's mansion, Laodecien had always been in and out as freely as his own home, Antonios's interest was interrupted, and he was not angry with Doreen's father, so he made a straight face and said to Laodisien, who was rushing over: "What happened again?!" ”

The anxious Laodecian did not notice the strangeness of Antonios and said loudly: "Paphragres is locked up in Naxos!" Strompori never released him! ”

"What's the trouble with Paphragres?!" Antonios immediately frowned and asked impatiently. Of Doreen's family, he was the least fond of Paphlegris, and when he was in Turiyi, the prodigal son actually went to harass Alexis's daughter Kitia, which caused a lot of trouble. In order to prevent Alexis from pursuing this ugly matter to death, Antonios's years of comradeship were spent begging for forgiveness, and at the same time, he also pulled Capps and other comrades to intercede for him, and finally allowed Paphgres to barely pass the pass with a lighter sentence of four months in prison and a fine.

What happened to this bastard this time around?! Actually let Strompori hold on to him?! Antonios was upset.

"What's wrong with Pavlegris?" Behind Antonios sounded Doreen's voice.

Seeing the appearance of her daughter, Laodisian immediately shifted the person of her speech: "Doreen, your brother has been wronged and imprisoned, and his life is in danger!" ……”

Laodisien told his daughter what had happened, and of course it was the slaves, not Paphragres, who killed the slave girls and the daughters of the freedmen in his account.

"A slave dares to kill the female slave girl in the family frequently?! Do you really think everyone is stupid? Antonios yelled at Laodisian: "You should have listened to me in the first place, let him be locked up for two or three years, and learn his lesson, and he will not end up where he is today!" ”

Laodisian had never seen Antonios get so angry, so he subconsciously avoided his gaze and said to Doreen: "I'm not in Naxos, I don't know what the specific situation is, this is all written to me by Antellus, but even if the person was killed by Paphlegris, but now the slave has also confessed his guilt, and died as a female slave, there is no need for Stromboli to be so serious!" Is it because of this that he really wants to betray Paphogres and be executed! ”

Speaking of this, Laodisian saw that Antonios was still cold and hard, and cried in a soft tone: "I know that Paphragres is not angry, but I only have one son from him, and he is not married, let alone have children, if he is really sentenced to death, our family's bloodline will be broken!" Can you bear to see me go to hell to see your grandfather after I die! ……”

Doreen was horrified that her brother had killed so many people so cruelly, but her father's pleading made her a little unbearable, and she didn't know what to do for a while, so she could only look at Antonios for help.

Antonios' heart softened when he saw his beloved wife's eyes, and he kicked a fragment of a clay pot on the ground into the pool in the middle of the courtyard, and then crossed his waist and said to Laodisian: "I don't know much about the detailed provisions of the law, how do you want to save that bastard, tell me and I'll listen." ”

Seeing that Antonios' tone was relaxed, Laodecian hurriedly said: "There is no provision in the Code of Dionya that 'a citizen who kills his slave will be sentenced to death', and the freeman has withdrawn the report, and the slave has taken the initiative to confess, so it stands to reason that the case can already be closed, but the Naxos Inspectorate has dragged on not transferring the case to the court, and the time limit for detaining Paphlegres has long expired, which is all against the law!" Antonios, you just have to talk to the highest judge, Trito Demos, and ask him to intercede with Strompori and transfer the case to the court as soon as possible...... It is inherently wrong for the magistrate to interfere in the affairs of the court! ”

Why didn't Laodisien just go and tell Trito Demose, because although he had made friends in Turiy in the past few years with his financial resources and long sleeves, there were several social circles that didn't pay much attention to him.

The senators of Amendolara have always been known for their conservative arrogance, and they are often proud of the 'first members of the League', and they are not accustomed to the slick style of the latecomer Raodisian.

Most of the senators of Lucania have always only cared about Lucania's affairs, and have close contacts with the former mercenary senators, but they do not like to interact with the senators of other regions, especially the senators of Sicily, because they belong to the north and south of the kingdom's territory, and there is no interest at all and rarely interact. Hermon was an exception, but the senator, who was famous for marrying his daughter, fell out with Laodisien because Paphragres had courted his youngest daughter.

There is also the Turriy senators, these senators from the center of the kingdom are also known for their high nobility, and the case of Polyxis swept most of the Turiyi senators into prison, which also made the remaining and backward senators act more cautiously, not only to the Sicilian senators, but also to the senators of other regions in private.

The former mercenary patriarch was the savior of the former Amendolara, and he spent the longest time with the Amendolara patriarch, and Amendolara also had a thousand intimate relationships because of the large-scale marriage of the year, so Raodysien would want Antonios to come forward and say that Trito Demos would intercede with Strompori, both of whom were Amendolalas, and Strompori should give him this face...... This was the beautiful idea of Laordisian.

"Trito Desmous......" Antonios muttered the name thoughtfully: Trito Desmos was indeed a better talker than the more conservative and stubborn Stromboli, and it was he and Prottesilaus who first took the initiative to get close to the mercenaries.

Speaking of which, Trito Demos has been sitting in the position of the highest judge for more than a decade. This was not because of the merits of the trial of Polyxis in the first place, but because of an act proposed by King Davers nine years earlier, and passed by the Senate, which stipulated that the public offices of the kingdom, such as judges and tax collectors, which required a high degree of professional knowledge, must be filled by specially trained citizens, and gradually promoted through long-term work practice, and no other public official should be appointed in the middle of the process.

This determined that Trito Demos would remain in this position until his retirement, because according to Ionian law: after the age of 65, citizens were not allowed to hold any specific office in the kingdom because of old age and infirmity, and of course the senator was still the senator. When this bill was first introduced by Davers, it passed without much objection, because not many people in this era can live to be 60 years old.

Since the public office of the "highest judge" is only the position of "chief judge", which can be concurrently held by the king of the kingdom, some time ago someone in the Senate also proposed: whether to add a few more "highest judge" positions, because the kingdom's territory has expanded, the population has increased dramatically, and of course, the number of illegal and criminal incidents has also risen, and the cases that require Trito Demos to immediately review and adjudicate serious cases are also one after another, and he is a little too busy. In this regard, even Trito Demos himself agrees, and the matter is still in the works. (https:)
