Octavian recalled that it was his wife Livia who helped him put on the waistcoat in the morning, and it was not the first time that Livia helped him put on the waistcoat, and this waistcoat was suddenly so light, he should have noticed something. I thought to myself: Could it be that in order to make her son the "head of state" as soon as possible, Livia actually colluded with outsiders to murder me? Couples for so many years have become strangers? I can't help but feel chilled. Then he hurriedly shouted: "Guards! ”

The door opened, and two guards walked in one after the other, followed by Cuman, "Augustus! ”

"Close the door first." Octavian said.

Cuman closed the door.

"Come here." Octavian said to Cuman.

Cuman approached.

Octavian gave the piece of copper to Cuman and said, "Such a thin piece of copper must have been made by a skilled craftsman, do you know who in the city of Rome can make such a thin piece of copper?" ”

Cuman recalled for a moment and said: "Hitler. ”

"'Hitler'?"

"Yes, there was a blacksmith on the outskirts of the city, a Germanic named Hitler, who was able to make what was said to be the thinnest, lightest, and sharpest sword in the world, and many knights appointed him to forge his own sword. I don't think anyone else has the ability to do this except him. ”

Octavian nodded, and said, "Go and bring this man, there are some things I want to ask him." ”

"I'll do it now." Cuman turned around after saying that.

Octavian hurriedly said, "Wait, and bring me the tailor who was in charge of making my 'vest'!" ”

Cuman nodded, and then led the two guards out of the room.

Octavian pondered, and thought to himself: If the matter is also related to Livia, what should I do with her, after all, it is the woman I once loved deeply.

"Knock", a knock on the door interrupted Octavian's thoughts.

"Are you there? Father! ", is the voice of her daughter Julia.

"Come in!" Octavian said.

The door opened, and Julia's head poked in, smiling, and saying, "Guess who I brought to you?" As he spoke, he took Li Xiang's hand and walked in.

As soon as Octavian saw Li Xiang, a sense of gratitude and awe awe, and he really didn't know what to say for a while.

Li Xiang opened his mouth first, "Augustus! ”

Octavian was amazed and said, "You, you can speak our language?" ”

Li Xiang nodded.

Julia smiled and said, "You don't know yet! The first thing he said was to praise me for being a beauty! ”

Li Xiang smiled and said to Julia: "I'm not talking nonsense, if you run for Miss Universe according to your appearance, you will definitely be the champion!" ”

The father and daughter said in unison: "'Miss Universe'? ”

Li Xiang thought to himself: If it is really explained, it will be endless, and these two ancients may not be able to understand it. So he said, "I mean, that is, you are the ...... of this planet."

The father and daughter said in unison again, "'Planet'?"

"What kind of ball is the planet?" Julia asked.

Li Xiang thought to himself: Dizzy! How do I explain this? So he replied: "What I just meant was that Miss Julia is the most beautiful woman in the world, and all the beauties have to stand aside when they see you." ”

Julia's heart fluttered when she heard this, and she smiled and said, "You are so good at talking. ”

"By the way, what should we call you!" Octavian asked.

Julia hurriedly took it and said, "He just told me, his name is Li Xiang." ”

"Yes, just call him Li Xiang." Li Xiang said.

"Good!" Octavian paused slightly, and then said, "Li Xiang! Are you used to living with us? Isn't it as comfortable as yours? ”

Li Xiang thought to himself: To be honest, the bed and pillows are too hard, and there is no air conditioning when it's so hot, but if you think about being able to live under the same roof with a super beauty like Julia every day, just bear with it! So he complimented against his will: "Augustus's mansion, I think it should be the most high-grade in Rome, if you still feel uncomfortable, then you really have to live to the sky!" ”

Octavian smiled and said, "It's just a humble house, what kind of mansion is it." ”

"Augustus is too modest!" Li Xiang praised.

Octavian smiled.

Julia said to Li Xiang, "Aren't you going to talk to my father about the cross?" ”

"Oh! yes, if you don't warn me, I'll almost forget what I'm here for. Li Xiang said and revealed the necklace around his neck, and he could see the colorful cross pendant.

Before Li could speak, Octavian hurriedly said: "I have already guessed it, so I will consult with the senators at the regular meeting of the Senate tomorrow to abolish the torture of the cross throughout the country." ”

Li Xiang immediately waved his hand and hurriedly said, "No, no, no, it is not possible to cancel the cross now." ”

Octavian was puzzled and said, "Does God approve of such a cruel punishment?" ”

Li Xiang thought to himself: Isn't this a contradiction? The cross is indeed a very cruel torture instrument, of course, the sooner it is abolished, the better, but if there is no cross now, will the symbol of faith of more than N billion people around the world be changed in the future? So he said, "I don't think God will approve of the cross as an instrument of torture, but He has a very big plan to use it in the future." ”

"God's plan?"

Li Xiang nodded and said, "Yes!" So! I suggest that consideration could be given to the abolition of crucifixion outside of Israel as a matter of course. ”

"'Israel'? Does it belong to us Rome? Octavian paused, then continued: "How come it seems that I have never heard of this place?" ”

Li Xiang frowned and said, "Then, what about the Jews?" Jews don't fail to hear of it, do they? ”

Octavian shook his head.

"You're not kidding me, are you?"

Octavian said very seriously: "You have no jokes, besides, what's the point of making such a joke with you?" ”

Julia said to Li Xiang, "Could it be that you have misremembered the name of the place?" I remember that there was no 'Israel' and 'Judaism' in the fifty provinces of Rome that you were talking about. ”

"Wait a minute!" Li Xiang began to look up in the mobile version of the "Encyclopedia", and soon found important information, in ancient Rome, Israel or Judea had long since ceased to exist, and there was only one Roman province called "Judea", which is located in today's Syria, Palestine and Israel. So he said, "Oh! It was now called 'Judea'. ”

"'Judea'?" Octavian said.

"Except here in Judea, the cross must remain for at least thirty years, and when a man named Jesus is crucified, it can be completely abolished, otherwise..."

Octavian hurriedly said, "... Otherwise, if you destroy God's plan, you will inevitably be punished and cursed by God. ”
