Chapter 644: Caesar and Cleopatra
Yang Nianzhong then told his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law about his plan in detail, although the story made up by Yang Nianzhong was full of loopholes, but the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had to admit that Yang Nianzhong was a genius.
What is this story made up by Yang Nianzhong? Who is its protagonist? Let's tell you now, the name of the male protagonist of this story made up by Yang Nianzhong is Gaius Julius Caesar.
Anyone who knows the history of Europe must not know this name, even if you ask a child of how old in Europe is to know who Julius Caesar really is, that is the founder of the Roman Empire, that is the greatest general and dictator, but died too early.
Another heroine is the most famous Cleopatra in history, Cleopatra, the female pharaoh of the Ptolemaic dynasty, the last unified dynasty of ancient Egypt. After the death of this female pharaoh, the Egyptian dynasty was completely reduced to a colony of ancient Rome, and the glory of ancient Egypt has never been restored since.
The hero and heroine are now out, so what about the development of the story? It is necessary to turn the camera to Caesar's expedition to Germania for the ancient Roman Republic. Caesar was the first Roman general to fight the Rhine, and the story goes that Caesar crossed the Rhine with his legions and conquered the Germanic peoples.
One day Caesar took his dog for a walk on the bank of a stream at the edge of the camp, but the dog suddenly ran to the other side of the creek and began to plow the ground with his two front legs.
Because this dog was raised by Caesar since he was a child, he poured a lot of effort into it, and he especially liked this dog, so he was afraid that this dog would be in danger. So Caesar crossed the brook to the dog, patted him on the head, and let the dog dodge to the side, and he drew his own sword and began to dig a hole, until he found the stone that his dog had found.
And this stone is covered with a layer of rock, and it is not slippery, and he can't see what it is, just about to throw it away, but his dog, and then he took the stone back again, and after two or three times, Caesar knew that his clever dog must know what kind of secret this stone had.
Then he brought the black stone to the camp, and asked the jeweler to scrape off all the rock formations on the surface of the stone, and a golden amber appeared inside. And in the center of Amber is actually lying a living beetle, and there is a dung ball on the beetle's two hind legs, which looks like a shell.
Who was Caesar? It was a general of the Roman Empire, who knew it to be amber, and it was the most valuable golden worm in the lake, much more valuable than ordinary amber.
He had just conquered Rimania and conquered the Germanic peoples, and now he had discovered this priceless amber, so Caesar was very happy to keep this amber with him as a collector's item, as a trophy for his conquest of Zhimania.
At this time, Caesar led the army back to the ancient Roman Empire, and then had a conflict with Pompey, and a civil war broke out between the two heroes. Caesar kept pressing Pompey and drove the tyrant to the Ptolemaic dynasty to seek refuge, but he was unexpectedly beheaded by the king of the Ptolemaic dynasty, Ptolemy XIII.
And this Ptolemy XIII is the younger brother of Cleopatra, and when the old Ptolemaic king died, he ordered Ptolemy XIII to rule the Ptolemaic dynasty with his sister Cleopatra. However, the two siblings had a conflict, fought each other, defeated the elder sister, and drove Cleopatra to Syria.
At this time, the wonderful part of the story came, Caesar defeated Pompey's army, but he didn't expect Pompey to escape, where did he run to the Ptolemaic Dynasty and was killed, although Pompey was Caesar's opponent, but he Pompey was a meritorious man to the ancient Roman Empire.
Caesar is a very upright person, although he has contradictions with Pompey, it is because of different political views, but at the same time, they are all Romans and heroes of Rome, and Rome should not forget Pompey's credit, so Caesar's relationship is a family in conflicts, what does it have to do with your Ptolemaic dynasty.
Caesar himself knew that if he caught Pompey, it would only be to oust him from power and put him under house arrest, and it would be impossible to kill him after slowly raising his old age, but he didn't expect to be slaughtered by Pompey and Ptolemy XIII.
This makes Caesar very uncomfortable, but you can't try to please your own Ptolemy XIII and get angry, and someone will catch your enemy and kill you. I have given you this victor, can you still go back and slaughter the pharaoh who flattered you, the Ptolemaic dynasty, and you are unknown.
Just when Caesar was depressed, Cleopatra appeared, and the beauty of Cleopatra was so touching that even Caesar, a hero and dictator of the ancient Roman Empire, fell under Cleopatra's pomegranate skirt.
He was willing to cooperate with Cleopatra to rebel, defeated his younger brother and became the female pharaoh of the Ptolemaic dynasty of ancient Egypt, and he also gave Caesar a son.
So what does this story have to do with our golden amber with scarab beetles and dung balls? The object that had a relationship between Caesar and Del Rio Petra was this golden scarab amber.
Although the Ptolemaic Dynasty was not the bloodline of ancient Egypt, inheriting that he was a prince of Alexander's Empire and ancient Egypt are two different things, but the Ptolemaic Dynasty inherited the mantle of ancient Egypt in order to rule the ancient Egyptian region in peace.
Therefore, the symbol of the sun god Ra, Mr. Shell Lang, was given to Caesar's lover, Pharaoh Cleopatra, as a token of love, witnessing the love of the two people.
At the same time, he also witnessed the tragedy of the two people, after helping his lover Cleopatra seize control of the Ptolemaic dynasty, Caesar returned to Rome and became a dictator, and he also knew that Cleopatra had bore him a son, and the eldest son was made the crown prince.
And Cleopatra also took this son to Rome to meet his child's biological father and lover, but the mother and son did not expect that a few years later, the Roman heroic dictator Caesar was assassinated.
When Cleopatra learned of Caesar's assassination, she cried heartbreakingly, and Cleopatra wore the golden amber with the balls of scarab dung around her neck.
The later story is actually known to everyone, the Cleopatra also had a relationship with Antony, so that the invincible god of war finally became a Roman sinner, Opatra also committed suicide because of this incident, the Ptolemaic dynasty was completely destroyed, and even his and Caesar's sons did not escape the doom and were killed.
And when Caesar's son Ptolemaic King XV died, he still had his father Caesar around his neck, and the golden scarab amber found on the Rhine River was missing.
It wasn't until Yang Nian discovered this amber and discovered the story behind this amber that the treasure that witnessed the story of Caesar and Cleopatra, which had the corpse of a scarab beetle and a dung ball, was revealed.
This story is so singable, the characters involved are too famous, and the amount of amber with insect corpses has been produced, but there is only such a golden amber with scarab beetles and dung balls in the world.
In addition, Yang Nianzhong's singing and crying love story involves Caesar and Cleopatra, if you let the rich people in Italy or Egypt know this story and know the existence of this amber.
The rich people of these two countries must not be crazy, and their crazy bidding is to buy this golden amber that symbolizes the ancient Egyptian sun god, the hero of ancient Rome, the founding emperor Caesar, and the symbol of Cleopatra.
