Three days later, Aleobindes led his legions from Constantinople to Verona, a city north of the Tiber. Their visit was significant, for the whole legion was to escort a very important man, the daughter of Theodosius II, Licchinia.

For this girl, Luga naturally wanted to use ceremonies, and his clothes were extremely gorgeous, of course, for the sake of this imperial princess who had never left Constantinople.

Luga took Sebastianus with Arecio, who could not come forward without permission due to secrecy, so he could only hide in the barracks.

"General Aleobindeus is the proud general of His Majesty Theodosius, who first defended the nomads in eastern Armenia, and this garrison lasted twenty years." Sebastianus stood beside Luga and said to Luga, "The name of his legion is Augusta, as the name suggests, empress, empress. ”

"Could it be that His Majesty Theodosius II wanted his daughter Licchia to become Empress of the Empire?" Luga couldn't help but laugh out loud when she said this, "That skinny little girl who hasn't reached adulthood yet? Caesar is really bold, take such a female doll who has never seen the world to contend with the elite nobles of the Western Empire, she can't even survive a round in the game with them. ”

"But she has you, Theodosius's adopted son!" Sebastianus looked at Luga with a smile. This makes Lujia a little uncomfortable, what is it called and Lujia, is it said that he is an adopted son, should he treat this woman who is not familiar with him or even said a word as his sister?

Lu Jia naturally couldn't accept it, but no matter how dissatisfied he was, he couldn't show it.

Luga was dressed formally enough, and in order to show off his military status, he wore a brass muscle cuirass, and with wolfskin leather shoulders, and the cuirass was wrapped in chain mail, which made Luga look slightly burly. The red cloak covers Luga's chest and then hangs down his back, and he wears a helmet inlaid with a vertical horse, which is specially dyed purple to show off his royal status. Purple room, purple is the color of the royal family.

He stood outside the city for a long time, leading his soldiers to welcome Areobindes, and not far away the dust was flying, and from the scale of the dust alone could feel that such a vast army was quite numerous.

As time passed, the army of Areobindes appeared in front of Luga, dressed in orange hearts, wrapped in leather armor, wearing fur caps or iron helmets, and armed with spears and broad shields, striding across the road in front of Luga.

The whole process was like a military parade, and Luga was bored playing with his fingers, and in front of him was a team of 100 people passing by, because these were not the main thing, and there was no fun at all to watch these soldiers.

"Hey, Lord Areobinders!"

After a while, Sebastianus was heard shouting and waving his hand, and Luga turned his head to look in the direction of his wave, and saw a carriage in the open air, and four richly decorated horses pulled the chariot like a sofa, slowly approaching surrounded by several soldiers. At the top of the carriage sat a man, also gray-haired, dressed in a white long-sleeved undergarment, covered with dyed white leather armor, and decorated with red ornaments, which made him look very energetic.

Arreobindes noticed Sebastianus' call, he saw Sebastianus, and waved enthusiastically in response, "Here, Sebas, my old friend!" ”

The carriage came slowly and stopped in front of Luga, and Areobindes jumped out of the carriage and was now in front of Luga and Sebastianus.

What a burly old man! This was the first image of Areobindes to Luga, the old fellow, with his chest up and half a head taller than Luga, and his strong body, like a little giant.

"Oh, Flavis. Luga. Areobindes exchanged pleasantries with Sebastianus for a while, and then he noticed Luga, who was standing aside, and he hurriedly said, "Are you the hero who saved our Augustus like a knight from hell in the battle between Edessa and the Sassanid Persians?" He held out his hand.

"Yes, yes!"

Luga hesitated for a moment, and hurriedly reached out to greet Areobinders, who was not only tall, but his arms were far thicker than Luga had imagined, and Luga couldn't even reach out to hold his arm. This guy deserves to be a general, he really has the style of a general! Luga secretly admired in his heart, and inadvertently understood why Theodosius II trusted this guy so much, because there was a sense of security when he stood beside him.

"Fortunately, I will be lucky!" Areobindes smiled and said to Luga: "Such a heroic deed, even if you become the adopted son of Augustus, it is not an exaggeration! ”

Didn't you accept me, the adopted son of Augustus? Luga let go of his hand and couldn't help but think in his heart.

"Then it's almost time to get to the city." Areobindes craned his neck and glanced behind Luga, and then said, "Let the princess come down and walk around, after all, such a long distance is difficult for the princess's delicate body." ”

So saying, Areobindes turned and walked to the carriage that was slowly approaching, stretched out his hand to stop and called out, "Princess, we are almost here, and we have seen Flavis, who greeted us. Lord Luga, come down and walk around! ”

After speaking, Areobindes turned his head and looked at Luga and whispered with a smile: "The princess heard about your deeds in Constantinople, although I can't see anything from her face, but I can guess her thoughts, although Your Excellency is the adopted son of His Majesty Augustus, born as a commoner, but compared to Augustus of the Western Empire, you are a hundred times stronger." ”

"Thank you, Your Excellency, for the compliment, it still makes me very useful!" Luga bowed slightly, expressing his gratitude to Areobinders.

As he had said this, the carriage stopped, and the slave in coarse linen knelt hastily before the carriage door, and the maid gently lifted the curtain, and a woman with black hair, a gold laurel wreath, a white toga and a purple robe, carefully disembarked from the carriage with the help of the maid. With fair skin and a golden jewelry, she is extremely luxuriously decorated, worthy of being a princess, like a muse, making everyone present shake for a second.

"Damn, this is really a world away from when I was in the palace!" Luga looked at the approaching princess Liekinia and secretly admired in her heart.

Leekinia walked towards Luga with the support of her maid, and it could be seen that the pampered princess had turned pale from the days of travel, and that it must have been the fatigue of the journey, she came to Luga's front and bowed slightly, and then raised her head, and looked at Luga with her big watery eyes. Her pupils are dark and bright, as if she has contact lenses, unlike her contact lenses, she is pure natural, although her hair is a little messy, but she generally has the appearance of being braided before, and with a gold crown, there is indeed an indescribable nobility.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Lickinia!" Luga's expression was calm, and he greeted Lickinia in a deep voice.
