"Graeus has defected, and now Pompey wants me to get rid of this unsightly nail as quickly as possible. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

The luxurious Batinius family mansion, when Batinius read the secret letter sent by the servant, he was undoubtedly gloating in his heart, and was worried that he would be dissatisfied with Graeus by sending Aduneus to Atia, and now, without having to plan it himself, Pompey has directly given an order to find a way to get rid of this temporary defector within half a month.

"It seems that for several sensitive places, Pompey has sent his own henchmen to guard them."

Battinius snickered at the pleasure, and Victoria was faintly worried about it, Pompey was not as honest as he seemed.

Although he and Caesar's daughter are now living a good life as an old husband and a young wife, he is still very wary of the situation in Rome, and what his men are doing, this scheming guy can be said to know very well, but when he needs to stab the conspiracy and get the stolen goods. When these people still have the value of use, don't startle the snake, let him handle it himself.

Maybe this old guy knows all these things behind Bartinius's back, but Bartinius still has value for him? Or is there no bloodshed between the three heads because of whose side the men are on? Victoria didn't know all this, but felt faintly worried.

"Let's not do that for now, now let's think about how to deal with Gray, I don't think he's a tough guy to deal with."

Batinius poured a bottle of wine, and then slowly walked to the bedside, where in the past there were many conspiracies, and today is not unexpected.

The light of the oil lamp brought out the sinister and ruthlessness of Bartinius's face. For a moment, Victoria even felt tired, once, how much she and the man in front of her loved each other, they worked together, planned this home, planned to use their hard-working hands, down-to-earth to make a career, to make life happy and happy.

However, the years are merciless, and the insidious viciousness of the Roman upper class slowly changes the original innocent couple. Batinus became insidious and ruthless, and he had to step into the whirlpool of this era, slowly assimilated, and slowly became like everyone else......

"Maybe you can find that gladiator again."

Victoria took the glass from her husband and replied with a sly smile.

"You mean, let that Aduneus make some noise, and then frame Graeus?"

Batinus reacted quickly to his wife's suggestion, and while Graus had not yet made public the fact that he had sold Aduneus, he could have Adunius assassinate the nobles, or simply assassinate the senators, and then arrest him red-handed and charge Graeus with murder.

"And quickly, I guess Gray now knows what we're doing, after all, he's gone to see Secreus, and we all know what kind of person Secreus is, how he turned Gray against him, and I guess it has something to do with the gladiator's appearance at Gaius's door."

Victoria continued, red wine running down the corners of her mouth, looking like a poisonous snake sucking the blood of its prey.

"Prepare your allegiance to your new master, Aduneus. Gladiator, this is an honorable task, we are doing things for Rome, believe me, after the deed is done, you will win your freedom, I will do it. I'm not going to treat you like your previous masters, like you're a slave. ”

At night, Zhang Ce, led by the guards, walked into Batinhos's room.

This new owner seems to be in a good mood, and he doesn't look as domineering as Gray to himself, but Zhang Ce always vaguely feels that this atmosphere is not quite right, a nobleman, it is impossible to be so good to you for no reason, when he was in Atiya's house, Zhang Ce knew that he was sent to Octavia, it was just a conspiracy. And now, what is this Batinius going to do on his own?

With a nervous mood, Zhang Ce was brought forward by the guards and listened to Bartinius's new instructions at close range.

"Come, gladiator, I want you to go to the house of the great nobleman Aulus tomorrow night and assassinate him. Of course, you can't walk freely through the heavily guarded Roman aristocratic villas, and I've got you covered with a plan for the assassination. ”

Batinius took a small bite of the apple in his hand and continued—

"Tomorrow night Aulus will go out with his wife to a small private dinner, at this point there are not many patrolling guards in the streets of Rome, and once you have it, flee to the side path, don't run up the hill first, there are many guards here at night, you hide in the basement of Marcus's house for the night, and the next day after you have cleaned up, and then come back to me. Of course, I won't leave you alone on the assassination mission, you will have assistants, Quintas and Diclanous, who will help with this glorious mission. ”

After Batinus had finished his task, he half lay down in his large comfortable chair and watched the gladiator's reaction.

"But what did the nobleman named Aulus do wrong, and why did he assassinate him, instead of indicting him, and then let the Roman law carry out his execution?"

This is a difficult task, assassinating nobles, it is not so easy to do, the point is why me? Zhang Ce was very strange, but when this sentence came out of his mouth, Zhang Ce regretted it. Batinius was a cunning aristocratic councilor, and the reason why he arranged it this way must have his ulterior secrets, even if he asked, Batinius would not tell himself, and in the present age of ancient Rome, slaves had only the obligation to do exactly what their masters said, and had no right to ask.

Sure enough, in the next second, Batinius was furious-

"Gladiator, don't forget who you are now, you are still a slave, I bought you from Gray at a great cost, now, I am your master, you have to do everything I say, understand? Slave. ”

Battinius yelled, not even daring to say a word from the guards present. And Zhang Ce quickly understood his next fate. Perhaps this is still a conspiracy, and the battle between the Senate and the Triumvirate will always result in the death of many innocent people, and there is a good chance that he will once again become a pawn in their subterfuge......
