On the porch of the dining room, Adiana stretched out her hands, removed the gold ring, placed it on the waiter's tray, dipped her fingertips in the verbena-soaked jar, and then sat down safely on the guest's couch seat.

As expected, her eyes slanted to see that Stratonis and Menander were both sitting on the couch on the side, and then Pompey coughed lightly twice, and lay on his couch leaning over, and the whole four couches formed a circle around the dining table, and Demetrius sneered maliciously, and stood beside Pompey with his crossed hands.

Adiana understands that she is alone in this wrestling field.

"Your Excellency, in fact, I have always wanted to take the liberty of asking you a little question." Opposite, Pompey picked up a piece of fruit with a toothpick and asked leisurely, "Is it your father's corpse that was sent from the black galleons of Ponticabion?" ”

"I think there must be many people who have seen the majesty of their father, and there are many in the kingdom of Colchis of the Acajas." Adiana said, tears already welling up in her eyes, "I'm sorry, I still can't stop thinking of my father, although he was the most dangerous enemy of Rome, he still maintained the dignity and mercy of the king in the Zuihou stage of his life, I watched him ask with my own eyes, the Galatian swordsman Bituita, to end his life with the sword." With that, Biduita, who was at the queen's side, bowed to Pompey and said that the princess was right.

Demetrius immediately attached himself to Pompey's ear and said something, and Pompey asked Adiana in an apologetic tone, "I'm sorry." I'm just sniffing. An army of pheasants in a Macedonian province may have plundered your father's body. And the princess, you have been captured by that pheasant army before, and General Menander and your father's favorite concubine Stratonis have seen you captured, and if this is true, it would be terrible. I can't believe that there is such a deceitful creature in these two oceans of land. With that, Pompey coldly raised the pepper wine and took a sip. With the majesty of a general, he said, "I hope that you are not involved in this terrible thing. ”

"The princess's memory is not very good, or she is of noble birth and has really forgotten the dusty past - three years ago, she was captured by the Seventh Legion of Tuna in the Calabi Palace, and she had a close relationship with a military slave named Calabis, and according to General Minand's witness, that Calabis is now the envoy of the Pheasant Legion, the first-line commander." Dmitry said with a smile on behalf of his master.

Not only that, but the general also saw the princess on the terrace of the Acropolis. He was torn by that Calabis to the point where he was unclothed. Stratonis also took the opportunity to join the warband and mend the knife.

"Who are you?" Unexpectedly. Adiana actually said such words to Stratonis coldly.

As soon as these words came out, Stratonis suddenly felt a little embarrassed, "Your Excellency, have you forgotten that I am the concubine of your father's royal concubine." ”

"Then why are you here? The concubines of the father's real chamber and bed, the poison that had already been rewarded by the father had been followed in the city of Pontika Bion. Adiana raised her glass and looked at her like electricity, "Speaking of which, it is ridiculous that there are some shameless women in the court of every kingdom, who are either courtesans or dancing prostitutes, who have deceived a monarch or general who has drunk too much at a certain banquet for a night, and then call themselves concubines. Then she smiled apologetically at Pompey, "General, you are different, you are down-to-earth and step by step from military exploits, I just hope that you will not be deceived by those who were born slaves and are born with a lowly character and lying habits, I can see this kind of boring tricks, let alone you." ”

"Adiana, you don't lie! I'm the keeper of your father's vault!" Stratonis shouted in a gaffe.

Adiana's expression turned cold again, "Don't panic, my father doesn't have any treasury at all, he has spent most of his money in the previous war, and the gold and silver of six thousand Tallents are just an illusion for him to deceive lowly slaves and soldiers, just like those who are really close to him know the truth." After saying this, Adiana actually hid her other hand under the cloak and was about to pinch blood, and she was actually gambling, outright gambling.

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere at the scene was extremely embarrassing, even Pompey sighed and was silent, Adiana slowly swallowed the drink calmly, and then asked Bidouita to take out a bunch of letters, "This is the relic of the deceased father, during which there are correspondence with children and concubines. After saying that, Adiana stared at Stratonis, and took out one and said it was for my aunt, and another and said it was for me, and another and said it was for my mother, "There are as many as four or five letters from my father to me, and I can completely memorize the contents of them." What about yours, the most favored concubine of your father? I don't think I even got it. ”

"What kind of authenticity can there be in this kind of thing that passes through your hands? Even the corpse is fake, as long as you can prove that the corpse is fake, Adiana, how do you prove that the corpse is real? Stratonis couldn't sit still, she knew that Adiana had taken the lead with the letter, but she was not reconciled.

Adiana glanced at Pytuita, and Bidita handed Pompey a board with the seals of Achilles and Arcilaus, who looked at it and said "That's right, this is a copy of the documents of the two generals of Pontus in advance of transporting the corpses." ”

"We can verify the corpse on the spot!"

"Enough! ! With great anger and impatience, Adiana slammed her glass down and interrupted Stratonis's request, "I am not interested in knowing where you came from, perhaps you saw the majesty of Luan Yu when you were a slave girl in the court, or you did receive the grace of my father, but there are as many such people as carp crossing the river, and now you know me, but I do not recognize you—besides, General Pompey, I have heard that the reason why you Romans hold banquets for your guests is to practice the eating of the living, The beautiful tradition of the rest of the deceased is that even the leftovers from the banquet are placed on the ground under the table and then placed in front of the ancestral grave. But there is always a fake and noble maid here, who constantly slanders me with false words, and uses my deceased father as a ridiculous gimmick, and actually wants to inspect the body of my deceased father, so I hereby give up the dignity of the princess, and say out loud that my father had taken a lot of poison before his death, and the body was already swollen to the point of not being able to see clearly, except for the wounds on his body, but there was a bruise on the back of his head covered by his hair, which was left by the fall from his horse when he was a child. After saying that, Adiana couldn't stop crying. (To be continued......)
