Augustus Road

Stratonis sat down angrily: Yes, there are any bruises on the back of Mithridates' head. She has been sleeping with her for so many years and she still doesn't know about it? But since this is a fake corpse, and Adiana dared to blatantly state its "characteristics", she must have colluded with that Calabis.

At this time, Calabis was sweating in the kitchen, "preparing" the second main course for the princess (for a Roman banquet, there were usually only two main courses): lobster stewed in oyster sauce, and was about to shout for someone to take it. Vinegar came, and then suddenly realized where the vinegar came from in the Roman era, and in a hurry, he shouted "Bring the sour wine!" Several cooks poked their breasts and were busy making sour date wine - other fake oriental cuisine cooks have long been They were sent away with a few drachmas each, and now Chef Calabis is responsible for all the food.

The bronze door of the restaurant opened, and the waiters walked in one by one, pushing plates filled with seasoning jars. Pompey's main course was prepared by the chef he brought from Rome. It was very simple, a plate of grilled sausages and a plate of caviar. Fatty foie gras, Menander and Stratonis did not dare to ask for any additional dishes from Pompey, and remained highly consistent with Pompey. Only Adiana calmly faced braised chicken stuffed with black truffles and lobster stir-fried with oyster sauce. From the opening and closing bronze tube she carried with her, she easily took out a pair of slender tongs inlaid with silver (who is the trainer? No need to ask), he shreds the braised chicken very elegantly, pours seasoning on it, and then uses this slender tong to dexterously put the steaming chicken into small pieces in small pieces. , even Pompey was fascinated by it, and couldn't help shouting: "I think, dear Princess, there is an old gourmet in Rome, who will definitely have a special discussion with you on the topic of food."

At this time, the eyes of Demetrius next to him suddenly showed a cold light. As if he remembered something, he asked the princess politely: "What an elegant and eye-catching meal. As far as I know, there is only one person in Rome who can cook it." This kind of meal was created, but now in Colchis, which is so far away, there is actually someone who can cook this dish - Master, I am very curious, I seem to think that there is a person who created the meal with me, the princess, and the one who created the meal. My close friends are nearby, maybe in the kitchen.”

Beads of sweat immediately appeared on the princess' forehead. She secretly hated herself and Karabis for being too complacent and not careful enough in their defense against this Jew!

The steam from the truffle braised chicken was still rising, covering the princess's expression, but her maroon eyes were turning rapidly, "Calm down, Adiana, think about what Karabis said to you in advance, the trump card, the trump card. ..."

While she was thinking, Demetrius quickly and decisively said excuse him and went to the palace kitchen to have a look.

It's almost too late!

Suddenly, before Pompey could say anything, Demetrius had already stepped out of the restaurant. Adiana wiped her tears and said, "Actually, there was something that could verify the identity of the father, and that was him. The sword of Autolicus was also taken away as a trophy by a general named Claudius who claimed to be the deputy general of the Eighth Legion. "

As soon as these words came out, both Pompey and Demetrius were speechless. Demetrius stopped and Pompey even stood up from the couch!

"Eighth Legion? Your Excellency, are you sure you heard that person correctly?" Pompeo couldn't hold back at first and shouted.

In fact, when Calabis discussed with her before, he did not specifically ask her to mention Claudius's legion affiliation. This was definitely a "quick move" for the princess to trick people to the end. She might as well act like she was tricking people to the end, Adiana nodded. The head said: "Yes, he indeed claimed to be from the Eighth Legion, and he wanted to regard his father's sword as the general's military exploits. He told me that the kind general would definitely let his father's body be buried in Sino. It is common, but there must be a symbol of conquering the capital to appear in the general’s triumphal ceremony.”

With a loud noise, Pompey ignored his manners and angrily smashed his fist on the dining table in front of the bed. All the dishes were spilled on the floor, kissing the earth and Pompey's "little home" (which the Romans generally called their hometown). For the sake of our little family, and the city of Rome for everyone), this accomplished general yelled: "This bastard of a prodigal brother, the breeder of Rome, the guy who gave his virginity to pirates..." ." After the heat, Adiana secretly smiled in her heart. Yes, Calabis had planned a trump card in advance. It was really the sword pointed at Pompey's weakness. This man was hard-working, not very greedy for money, commanded decisively, and was brave and difficult to defeat, but the greatest His destiny is vanity and competition. Sure enough, when Adiana mentioned "Autolicus", he couldn't hold it back.

"Didn't General Claudius say he is your subordinate? Why are you so excited? It really scares me."

"No, no, I remembered what that bastard brother-in-law Tuna said. Having him serve under me is really the greatest 'lucky' in my military career. Demetrius, please report to Rome and Ponti as soon as possible The pheasant legion in Cabion City sent a letter, mentioning my imperiummaius immediately, now!"

Demetrius, who was standing at the door, said in embarrassment, "Master, I think I should go to the kitchen first, because this is completely related to whether the words of this princess can be believed."

"Hey, Demetrius, my most beloved and trusted servant, do you think we are playing a guessing game? Can you expand your vision a little bit? Our biggest enemy is a huge monster. He is in Rome and controls everything. Claudius is just his pawn. You have to hurry up. Don't ask me to repeat it again. Everything should be done according to the rules of the legion! The fastest letter, the fastest order, plus the fastest horse and ship." Pompey became excited and bit his nails fiercely, which meant that his order could not be delayed. Demetrius could only stare at the princess who was still proudly picking the delicacies with a long silver clip, and then turned around and left angrily.

"Respected General, this dish is really to my taste. You are such a considerate host. Please allow me to thank the chef you hired. In addition, I would like to have some of this truffle braised chicken." Adiana picked her teeth with a toothpick and looked at Menander and Stratonice with a provocative look. Biduita took the princess's small purse and knelt to a place a few meters away from the host and guest couch, stood up and left the restaurant, and walked to the back of the palace.

The tall indigo warrior walked into the kitchen and found that only a few cooks were preparing desserts and drinks after the meal, and Carabis was nowhere to be found. Biduita shook his head and continued to walk to the utility room in the corner of the kitchen where firewood was piled. (To be continued.)
