The inauguration of Caesar's second dictator, Dictator, was hastily held, and since he had crossed the Rubicon with all his legions and stationed troops under the city of Rome, the reaction of the populace and the nobility seemed to be less intense than the last time, and they felt that the army was there anyway, and that as long as they did not use violence or coercion in the city, it would be better for them to remain quietly in the plains outside the city.

There were even Caesar's supporters who began to express a new view, one that had not been held in the Republic for more than four hundred years, that "the people should distinguish between the army that protects the city and the army that seeks to destroy it." ”

Quietly, the ideas of the whole country and society were violently colliding and shaking in secret, and when Lybida rode through the streets with the dark-skinned Medejie Guards, who were in charge of guarding the area from the main square to the Capitol Mountain, he saw with his own eyes a dying old man, perhaps eighty years old, or even older, walking in the middle of the street on crutches and blocking the front of the guards, "Soldiers are not allowed to walk through the streets of Rome with weapons. ”

Li Bida, who was on the horse, looked at the white-haired old man, his tone was as tactful as possible, he held the sword at his waist, and said, "It is now the martial law of Dictiot, which shows that the country is still in turmoil, so part of the army has entered here to protect the peace and tranquility of the city of Rome, so I still hope you understand." ”

As a result, the old man sneered a few times, sat down slowly on the steps of the street, and said in an old but clear tone, "The only one who can protect the peace of this city is the Republic, and now the Republic is dead." I don't want to breathe any more turbid air. "Finished. And the old man said no more.

Li Pida's horse's hooves began to move. He thought that the old man was just complaining, and then Alp and other black Nubian soldiers behind him also took up their bows and swords and prepared to patrol to the next block, but soon the crowd of onlookers let out an exclamation, which frightened Li Bida's mount and pouted uneasily, shaking the stones on the street, Li Bida turned his head to look. The old man sat where he was, and he died!

The other party held his breath and died of blockage, just as he had just sworn to never breathe the air that had become turbid.

"Stuff five hundred dinars into his family, and let them carry the body away as much as possible, and stop making a noise about it." Li Bida whispered to a few servants around him, and those servants with laurel leaf crowns hurriedly carried boxes and held bundle sticks to disperse the crowd. Then he went to call the old man's family to come and collect the body. At this moment, another shadow flashed rapidly on the street. Li Bida saw that it was really the virgin Zeno, although she had now become afraid and disgusted with Li Bida, but she still wore a brown cover on her white skirt and hid on the street corner to observe this person.

"Sure enough, I'm in Rome, and I'm still involved in too many favors?" Li Bida just looked at the virgin with complicated eyes from a distance, and didn't say anything, just walked over from the corner where she was and led the guards.

"This is my newly appointed chief lieutenant, Marcos F. Lipida, who is from the Emilius family, and I am going to have him take over as Senior Construction Officer in the meantime, to take charge of all the municipal officials, and to hold my triumphal ceremonies in Italy and Spain." In front of Julia's synagogue, Caesar watched several slaves carry their statues, and when they ripped off the statue of Pompey, he put his arm around Li Pida's shoulders and solemnly introduced them to all the senators wearing purple and red-rimmed robes. Antony, he and his mother are the best in our family, haha, of course this is just one of them, there is also a future governor of Gaul, Dehemos, and also the governor of Sicily, Curio. ”

When the number of Caesars was introduced, the admiration of the elders became louder and louder, and they were all talking to each other in private, wondering who would inherit Caesar's career, according to the military power, it seems to be the current senior construction officer Li Bida, but according to the kinship, it seems that Anthony is more advantageous, but Dehemoth heard that Caesar has already made him the heir to the throne, and Curio's recent rise should not be underestimated.

As for the first heir, Turinus, it seems that the patriarchs don't care, because after all, he is still just a child, and it is still unknown whether he can grow up safely under this group of tigers and wolves.

At this moment, in front of the synagogue, a young man of low stature walked up, he held the torch and documents of pleading, and asked Caesar to hear his grievances, but his appearance made Anthony beside Li Bida begin to be excited, and his beautiful and straight hooked nose curled up, pointing at the young man and shouting, "Yourabela, you bastard, are you going to become a traitor for you, and your father-in-law who ran back to Italy will be humiliated?" ”

It seems that this young man, who was Cicero's son-in-law, Juliabella, who, when he saw Antony, was like an enemy, and with red eyes and a loud accusation: "My father-in-law, who was persecuted by this plague god in Rome when the former consuls went on their expedition to Spain, was the greatest Roman orator and philosopher, who had returned from Silesia to Italy by refusing the invitation of the Pompeians, and even though he had not served the consul for a while, he was pardoned by your edict - But Antony, like the villain Claudius before him, banished our entire family to the Faumia Manor, and prevented us from setting foot in Rome. In addition, the grain overseer who had stayed behind was able to get things done, and in the absence of all the nobles, a prostitute and a dwarf became his most powerful assistants, and he sat in the synagogue, spitting everywhere, intercourse with women in the presence of the senators, throwing the government affairs to the most humble confidential slaves, and driving the carriage himself, shouting 'I am a descendant of Anton' in the Colosseum, strangling the horses to the point of foaming at the mouth, so that the nobles and the people who watched should chew the bitter leaves in their mouths so that they would not laugh out loud. ”

"I'm going to kill you! Sooner or later, I will rush to Formia and kill your father-in-law's entire family, for when your father-in-law killed my stepfather, he used some high-sounding excuses, but it was just a bloodless knife. Anthony roared and was about to kill Eurabella in front of the synagogue.

Li Bida hurriedly held down the hilt of Antony's sword to prevent him from being angry, and Caesar also rebuked Anthony majestically, and then said to the young man very respectfully: "Everything cannot be as it should be, so I will go to the Formia Manor on a certain day, personally pay a visit to your father-in-law, restore all his political powers, and ask him to be the Inspector for the coming year." Then he patted Li Bida on the back and instructed, "The triumphal ceremony and the celebration will be handed over to you, and the statue of Pompeii should not be destroyed, it would seem that we are too stingy, just place it in front of the door of the Grand Theater of Pompeii."
