In the Manor of the Emperor of Begalon, Leo sat quietly in the garden, and several servants and armed centurions, standing a dozen Roman feet away from him, walked around, and the flowers in the garden were very beautiful, and Leo did nothing but sit there and read a book, from the second hour of sunrise until the middle of the day, and then he put down the scroll, stood up, and said to one of the servants, "I want to eat, thank you." ”

The servant looked at him a few times, and hurried to the backyard, and in a few moments brought a plate and wine, which Leo took and thanked him, and then laid it on the stone table in front of him, and ate it unhurriedly.

By evening, a group of centurions, cooks, and servants had gathered around Leo, sitting in their nests, listening to Leo's fables, and laughing from time to time, until Anthony and Curio came out of the porch.

"You can't delay, everyone knows that Cicero's move has evil intentions, he has clearly increased the command and amount of your legion, in fact, after Tellureas and Young Pompey return with the Spanish legion, he will take the opportunity to disarm and power, and destroy you physically like Catiline." Curio, who had hidden his face in the depths of his cloak, said in a hoarse voice.

"But I only have five legions and ten legions at my disposal now, and they are still under my command, and Dehemoth now has four or five legions, and there are rumors that he has joined forces with Li Bida?" Anthony was a little embarrassed, and then he and Curio went out into the garden. Incidentally, I saw Leo, the slaves and the centurion, and immediately scattered in all directions.

Anthony laughed. Intentionally walked up to Leo and said, "You're not a tribune now, you're my military tribune." ”

"Yes, Father Anthony." Leo stood up and saluted, saying.

"Then you sue me now, what should I do so that I can get out of this game."

"You should be faithful to the reconciliation and friendship of the young Caesar. And confessed his mistakes to my father in time and got back together. Leo said.

"Nonsense boy, I wanted to join forces with your father to share power. This is an easy thing for me and him, but your father pretends to be high and persecutes me everywhere. As a last resort, I joined forces with the Senate. Expel him and make him reflect on himself outside. Anthony made an angry face and scolded Leo.

"If you and he are both core members of the Amborodes Society, then you should believe him, my father once said that people should be trustworthy, and since he was the guardian of Turinus in the will of His Excellency Julius, then he had to fulfill his duties as guardian. So I personally think. You should do what I just said. ”

"I will never bow to your father, since I did not bow once. Then I will never be in the future, or I will be ruined, and I will be ruined, you know? Anthony yelled.

"Then I have nothing to say, father Lord Anthony." When Leo finished speaking, he sat down and said nothing.

Anthony looked at the kid for a moment, then waved his hand, meaning to go with you, "Anyway, I don't treat you as a prisoner and hostage, you can walk around the manor at will before I go on the expedition, and you will not restrict your freedom - it is good to follow me after the expedition, since you are a military protector, you have to go to the battlefield to increase your knowledge." ”

Next, the letter lawsuit between Antony and Dehemoth was still raging, "I will change the date of my ultimatum to Dehemoth on the seventh of June, the day before the Plebeian Athletic Festival, and if he does not disarm himself, then I will march into southern Gaul." Antony said in the Senate, and the senators nodded in admiration, and asked the clerk to transcribe it and send it to Dehemoth.

A few days later, Dehemoth wrote back, "I persuade Antony not to do this, or to postpone the date, or else he will become an enemy of the state sooner." ”

"Don't deceive people too much!" Antony could no longer hold back, and he and Gaius went to Campeña with his retinue, announcing the official resumption of the eighth, ninth, and eleventh legions, and promising all the veterans more salaries and more fertile resettlement land, "after the capture of southern Gaul, and the killing of Dehemoth, everyone there will be equally divided into good land." ”

The veterans of these three legions, who had long been unable to bear the hardships of the crops, immediately armed themselves and joined Antony's sequence, and after the sacrificial ceremony of the expedition, Antony instructed his brother Gaius, "You are now the chief justice officer of the city of Rome, and if the thirteenth and fifteenth legions of Li Bida come to Brindisi after the resumption of service, and after joining the sixth and twelfth legions, you will mobilize everyone in this capacity, and say that I have secretly made an alliance with Li Bida to avenge Caesar together, and the crusade against Dehemoth is only the first step." ”

Then he sent out the eagle sign from the temple, and armed all the troops, and passed through the Juilliard Hall, and told all the senators to stand among the steps and columns and watch, which was called Dianyue, but it was a warning to them.

After the show of power, Antony went to the Manor of the Emperor of Begalon and asked Leo to go with him, and Leo left a handwritten letter on the stone table, saying to the slave of Antony's family beside him, "This letter is for my wife Vivia, and I hope you will forward it when the time comes." ”

"You are not allowed to write to anyone, boy." Just as the servant was about to proceed, Curio suddenly appeared, stood in the garden, and looked at Leo gloomily, so frightened that the servant returned the letter.

"Write whatever he wants!" Anthony also came in at this time and said, "What's the big deal with leaving a letter to my wife, I haven't narrowed my mind to that kind of Cheng dù - by the way, you go with you, if anything happens, your fate will be far more dangerous than that of the Fulivia, because the Senate has not yet held you accountable for the defeat of the army." ”

At the same time, in the city of Milan in southern Gaul, Dehemos also examined his four legions with murderous violation, and then entrusted the task of recruiting new legions to his confidants, and then mounted his horse, and held up a plank to all the soldiers, saying, "I have a decree privately issued to me by the Senate, which requires me to lead my army into the city of Rome and deliver it from the tyranny of Antony, so the soldiers will at once go south, cross the Rubicon, and begin the crusade against Antony, We have the unanimous support of the Senate and the people in this battle, so our army will win, God bless Rome! I promise that when I enter the city, all the soldiers will be rewarded with three hundred dinars, ten times as many as the centurion! But if you lose, then we will all be poisoned by Anthony, and we will be reduced to slaves and thieves. ”

"God bless Rome! Defend the reputation of the Chief Executive to the death! All the soldiers beat their swords and shields and shouted.
