Chapter 12: Middle (II)
Even if Anthony is stupid (not to mention that he is not stupid), he understands the meaning of Li Bida's play, and at this time Poti and Corinna stepped forward and both saluted Antony, "Li Bidaius is about to go on an expedition, and he is afraid that his enemies in the city will harm me, so he thinks that we should be entrusted to our closest friends here, so that we can rest assured, please forgive us for our reckless visit and sojourn." ”
At this time, all Anthony can do is smile and nod.
"Now that his wife and daughter are here, a great opportunity has come!" In the afternoon, Curio reappeared in his study and spoke to Anthony, who was waiting here.
"I can't do this, if I let Li Bida's women and children be killed, or detained, or expelled in my mansion, I will be ruined, really ruined!" With that, Anthony replied with a fist on the cheek and groaned.
Curio then shouted that this was Li Bida's treacherous scheme!
"Whatever he wants, I have my own way of getting out of trouble, Curio! That's what I'm most afraid of is ruining my reputation, I don't allow this kind of thing, I will never allow it, if you want to do something to Li Bida, then go, okay now Curio, you are not a welcome person, leave this mansion immediately, don't come again, I'm afraid that my wife will kill you immediately when she meets you. Anthony waved his hand.
Curio was stunned for a moment, and then his crooked nose and mouth moved a few times, which was his smile, saying that it didn't matter, anyway, the target was the foreign man. After saying that, he retreated.
At this time, in front of the Twin Temples, Li Bida told all the veterans and the people about his determination to go to Dacia. and the friendship with Antony, the speech was over, and the thunderous applause was received, and many people said that the city of Rome would be at peace now.
Then, under the guidance of the six servants and the relevant staff and guards, Li Bida followed the city gate and prepared to go in the direction of Ravenna. In front of the dark and filthy gates, he saw Aetius in a wizard's cloak. Holding a cursed leather plate, he sat gloomily among a group of beggars, some of whom held the dead man's skull, some of whom were pinching the dead man's hair. Some were holding teeth that had been pulled out of corpses, which they had brought from mass graves outside the city gates.
"Aetius, are you cursing me?" Libida, who had stepped on his mount outside the city gates, asked Aetius.
"No, I'm afraid it's not a curse, because the curse is for the future, and your punishment is just around the corner." Aetius said with a non-smirk, and then slowly burned the cursed leather.
"Then I will also remind you, be careful of the backlash. Aetius. Li Bida also said this coldly, and then walked towards the street.
After traveling about ten Roman miles, Lybida suddenly laughed in the saddle. The people around him didn't know why, and then Li Bida restrained his smile and said I felt Caesar's mood back then, and then he called Hansk to his side, "From here to Ali Milon, with the foot strength of your mount." How much time? ”
"Mine is a three-year-old horse, and if it is fast, it will be back in three days. No more than four daylights at the latest. Hans pulled the reins and said confidently.
"No need to come back." Li Bida suddenly said in a shocking voice, "You go directly to Alimilon City, if the camp of the Sixth Legion is still there, wait for me there; If you are gone, you do not need to come back to me, nor to the Six Legions, who must have been deceived into going somewhere, but take the money I have given you, and hire ships across the Adriatic Sea, and tell Petnius and Sabokemus all the way to the city of Salona. ”
Others, Hansk, who did not bother to ask His Excellency the Governor why he had said this, did not look back, clamped his horse's belly, and galloped towards the city of Alimilon.
Alp, who instinctively sensed the tense atmosphere before the war, held up a banner with a portrait of King Numa of Li Pida and asked uneasily what had happened, when birds were flying around the farms and foothills.
"Don't be nervous Alp, don't be nervous - just keep going, just keep going." Li Bida did not answer directly, but slowly touched the gilded baton hanging under the saddle, and then continued to walk forward, and the rest of the servants and guards could only wonder and follow the pace of the governor.
At this time, the slaves and craftsmen who were sitting in front of the temple of Jupiter had already seen the rain clouds coming over the sky, and they got up one after another, hoping to bring in the freshly engraved bronze watch before the rain, but at this time an old man in a purple-rimmed robe suddenly stood in front of them with a bundle of rods, and said in a smug and frivolous tone, "This bronze watch should not be placed in it today, because the tribal officer of the road just now has seen an ominous sign of thunder and lightning in the sky. So immediately the Senate was going to hold an emergency meeting in Juilliard Hall. ”
"Yes, Juilliard Hall?" A certain craftsman who was sitting couldn't believe his ears, didn't the specially selected father have been nesting on Capitol Mountain for so many days and didn't dare to move?
"Yes, it's in the synagogue." Inspector Pinzel said excitedly.
Then, although the sky was cloudy and thunderous, from the luxurious villas and mansions in the city of Rome, one after another the senators walked out with their eyebrows raised and walked towards the synagogue under the hush of armed slaves.
And Anthony also stood in front of the porch of the synagogue with a complicated expression, watching the crowd continue to pour in, and the crowd who faintly felt that the mood was wrong in the thunder, many people surrounded and asked Anthony what he was gathering here for, "What is the matter of revenge for Caesar, and will the murderer be judged and punished as he deserves." When everyone was gossiping, Anthony couldn't bear it anymore, he pulled off his robe in front of the people, and then everyone realized that he was covered with a lock curtain, which meant that he was about to lose himself, so the people shouted angrily, and the accusations against the Senate also surged.
After Personnel 6 continued to sit down, the servant at the door kept beating the floor with a beam stick, signaling everyone to be quiet and listen to the words and proposals of Si Pinzel, who was on duty today.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I would not have summoned you to discuss matters in such weather, but I have only recently learned that something very terrible has happened in the whole republic. There is a former dictator's deputy, who tried to repeat the mistakes of Caesar, deceived all the elders on the national borders and peace and war issues, and tried to use it to absorb military power and build a new dictatorship with iron and blood.
