"Yes, Lybidaeus, you are a very clever and cunning man, but it is too late now, and tomorrow Caesar and Pompey will bypass the Senate and take place at the Demo of Tebris, and then the assassination will appear on time, and you will not be able to stop it, as you expected, the assassin is tightly protected by the assassin, and there is a more ironic farce than this? Haha After Printhia finished speaking, she laughed loudly regardless of the courtesan's demeanor, "Also, don't tell Caesar, because Caesar is not the target of this assassination at all, and it is useless for you to inform him, and the power of the entire stage script is in Pompey's hands." ”

At this time, she actually saw Li Bida in the dust, knelt down to her, and begged her to tell her where the civilian assassin named Vitias was, and he couldn't let the brothers of the patron and the adoptive father be involved, "Even if Pompey had a grudge with him before, but Pompey also took away his glory and military power, and it should cancel each other out!" I swore that I would absolutely protect Marcus, I was negligent with him, and I was not willing to bear such a charge, as much as you wanted, as much as you wanted! ”

But Printhia was unmoved, still laughing and drifting away, leaving only the smell of the sedan man's feet to Li Bida, who was still kneeling, he screamed violently, smashed his fists on the dirt under his knees, and then stared at the Pompeii theater under construction with hazy outlines in the wind with red eyes, and did not say a word

The next day, in the early morning, the people of all the Tebris of Rome again crowded to the Grand Place, where they had repeatedly enjoyed the pleasure of close love with the country during the year of Caesar's reign. It's just enjoyable to death. This time they were able to see Caesar and Pompey join forces. The wonderful scene of the vicious fight with the specially selected fathers, and then use the tickets in their hands to decide the life and death of both parties, and what can bring joy to people more than this, it is even more exciting than going to the Colosseum.

At this time, in Demetrius' mansion on the Palatine Hill, Pompey easily rolled down his sleeves and shone in front of the vertical mirror. Demetrius carefully combed his thick hair back with an ivory comb, but Pompey was middle-aged, and the hair was not as beautiful as it had been ten years ago, and there were white strands mixed in with it, which made Pompey feel a little sad at night.

"That's why I'm willing to resort to this not-so-honorable method, Dmitrius, to tell that guy that things are done realistically and beautifully." Pompey carefully pinned his robe with a gold brooch, and then talked and laughed, accompanied by his closest friend Gabinus. Walked out of the door with ease.

The Jews moved to the backyard, in the open field there. The volunteer "assassin" Vittias was nervously waving the fighting sword in his hand, and Demetrius frowned and said: "I have to remind you that you don't need to worry about your swordsmanship now, but about your acting skills, immediately rush to the people's meeting, and immediately report the name of the 'mastermind' in one breath, do you know the way!" ”

Vittias took a deep breath, jumped, and then grunted the names of Bonis, Brutus, Marcus and others, and Demetrius looked around and said enough, you can just mix in with our people, and remember again, just do the fake show.

After Vitius had gone, Principia came out of the colonnade of the inner ring with great grace, and Demetrius looked at her and asked in a very polite tone: "You came last night, Libida, no, that fellow of Calabis guessed my plan?" ”

"Yes." The corners of Principia's mouth moved slightly, and she said with a half-smiling expression.

"I must warn you, this former friend of mine named Calabis is terrible," said Demetrius, whose expression suddenly became solemn, and he stared at his fingers, "how did he treat you?" Is it persuasion, or is it a threat of retaliation? ”

"No, you can't guess - he knelt in the dirty mud on the edge of the construction site, even if he knew your plan, he couldn't help it, even if his patron and adoptive father were half-demented, he couldn't escape this catastrophe, so he begged me bitterly, kowtowed and begged me."

The Jew rushed to Prínthia, with an intoxicated expression, and even his jaw trembled violently, and said, "Please describe the behavior of Calabis just now." ”

"I said, he kowtowed and begged me, and begged me constantly." Principia accentuated her tone, but seeing that the Jew Dmetrius raised her head, she took a deep breath, and then said to Printhia, "Dear noble lady, when the master's great theater is completed, your show will be performed first, and the whole city will be overwhelmed by your style." Printhia immediately smiled and half-knelt down and kissed the corner of Demetrius' coat

On the bullish street of the Grand Place, Pompey saw Caesar coming from another street and his servants, and immediately politely avoided the side, but Caesar hurriedly stepped forward, kissed and hugged him, and took him by the hand and walked leisurely in the direction of the Grand Place.

On one side of the arcade, Vitias, who hid a sword under his clothes, was covered in sweat in the crowd of people pushing and shoving, and several of his accomplices were constantly guarding his side, so as not to let others get close and discover his flaws. Finally, when Caesar and Pompey smiled and walked to the fork in the road where the Bull Street and the Grand Square met, just in the middle of the preoccupation of everyone in the streets, arcades, and squares, one of his accomplices struck Vitias on the back, "Your time has come for General Pompey, don't be afraid, we will save your life!" Rush up, don't forget to sign up, and the list is also tucked under your clothes! Then, several men pushed him out of the crowd, and Vitas jumped out and howled, "I have come to kill the thieves of the Republic!" ”

Before the crowd could react, a child limped and led several bear children to the square in advance, and shouted to the crowd of people dressed in Egypt's unique "Knu white" clothes, "Alexandre's petitioner, Your Excellency the Archon has come to the Great Square, so that you can openly tell the people of the whole republic that you have been abused by the tyrant!" As a result, the crowd of strangely dressed men rushed to Caesar and Pompey and shouted and held up various flags, and the attention of the people was soon attracted by Alexandria's petition, and they crowded there to comment.

"I'm here to kill the thieves of the Republic!" Vittias suddenly calmed down when he saw all sides, and he was unwilling to be lonely and took out his sword, jumping and shouting, and then he saw that there were only a few people, and looked back at him curiously, which made Vittias suddenly excited, and he then waved his sword, and shouted as he ran, "I am here to assassinate the thief of the Republic, Gnieus. Pompey's, Gnaeus. Pompey suffers death! (To be continued......)
