Augustus Road
Chapter 30 Tithing Method (Part 2)
The inauguration ceremony of Caesar's second dictator, Dictator, was held in a very hasty manner. Since he brought all his legions across the Rubicon River again and stationed troops under the city of Rome, the reaction of the people and nobles seemed not to be as bad as last time. Strongly, they felt that the army was there anyway. As long as they did not use violence and coercion inside the city, they could just stay quietly in the plains outside the city.
Some supporters of Caesar even began to express new opinions, which were not seen in the Republic for more than 400 years. "The people should clearly distinguish between the army that protects the city and the army that attempts to destroy the city."
Suddenly, the ideas of the entire country and society were violently colliding and shaking in the dark. When Lepidus led the dark-skinned Medici Guards, riding horses on the streets, they were responsible for guarding the main square from the Capitol to the Capitol. When the area in the mountains was cleared, he saw with his own eyes an old man, perhaps eighty years old or even older, walking to the middle of the street with a cane and blocking the way of the guards. "There are no people on the streets of Rome." Soldiers are allowed to pass with weapons in hand."
Lepidus, who was on the horse, looked at the white-haired old man and tried to be as tactful as possible. He leaned on the sword at his waist and said, "Now is the period of martial law in Dictado. This shows that the country is still in turmoil, so some troops have entered here." "It's to protect the peace and tranquility of the city of Rome, so I still hope you understand." Lepidus' horse hooves began to move, thinking that the old man was just complaining. Then Arp and other black Nubian soldiers behind him also picked up their bows and swords, preparing to patrol to the next block. But soon the crowd of onlookers let out exclamations of surprise, which frightened Lepidah's mount into an uneasy grin. Plowing the stones on the street, Lebida turned around and saw that the old man was sitting there, actually dead!
The other party held his breath and died of occlusion, just as he had sworn just now, never to breathe the turbid air again.
"Give his family five hundred dinars and ask them to carry the body away as soon as possible. Don't make any more noise about this matter." Lepidah whispered to several of the servants around him. Those servants wearing laurel leaf crowns hurriedly carried the box. Holding the beam stick, he dispersed the crowd, and then called the old man's family to collect the body. At this moment, another shadow flashed quickly on the street, and Lepidus saw that it was really the virgin Zeno. Although she now became afraid and disgusted with Lepidus, she still wore a brown veil on her white dress. Hiding on the street corner and observing this man. "This is my newly appointed chief lieutenant, Marcus F. Lepidus. He is from the Aemilius family. I plan to have him take over as the senior construction officer during this period and command all the municipal officials to organize my visit in Italy. "And the Spanish Triumph." In front of the Juilliard Hall, Caesar watched several slaves carrying his own statue and tearing down the statue of Pompey. Then he held Lepidus' shoulders and faced all the senators wearing purple and red robes. After a grand introduction, Anthony was brought in. "This is another proud child of mine, Mark Antony. He and his mother are both the best in our family, haha. Of course, this is just one of them. There is also the future Governor of Gaul, Deximus. and Curio, Governor of Sicily.”
As the number of Caesars was introduced to more and more people, the senators' insincere admiration became louder and louder. They were all whispering to each other in private, trying to figure out who would succeed Caesar's cause. According to military power, it seemed that they were the ones in front of them. Senior construction officer Lepidus, but according to the relationship, Antony seems to be more advantageous, but Deximus heard that Caesar had already designated him as the successor, and Curio's recent rise should not be underestimated.
As for Turinus, the first heir, it seems that the senators don't care, because after all, he is only a child, and it is still unknown whether he can grow up safely under these tigers and wolves.
At this moment, in front of the synagogue, a young man of short stature walked up. He held a torch and documents to plead guilty, and asked Caesar to hear his grievances. But his appearance made Antony next to Lepidus start to get excited. The beautiful and straight aquiline nose curled up, pointing at the young man and shouting, "Urabella, you bastard, are you going to give in to your father-in-law who became a traitor and ran back to Italy?"
It seems that this young man is Cicero's son-in-law Eurabella. When he saw Antony, he was like an enemy. With red eyes, he loudly accused: "When the consul went to conquer Spain, he suffered a lot in the city of Rome." My father-in-law was not the only one persecuted by this plague. My father-in-law was the greatest Roman orator and philosopher. He refused the invitation of the Pompeians from Silesia and returned to Italy, even though he was not a consul for the time being. Your Excellency served, but according to your decree, I was also pardoned - but Antony, like the previous villain Claudius, expelled our whole family to the Manor of Formia, and did not allow us to set foot in the city of Rome. The grain inspector who stayed behind was able to do his job. When all the noble people were away, a prostitute and a dwarf became his most effective assistants. He sat in the synagogue, spitting everywhere, and had sex with women in front of the senators. , leaving government affairs to the humblest confidential slaves, driving a carriage himself, shouting "I am a descendant of Anton" in the great arena, reining in the horse until it foamed at the mouth, and made the nobles and people watching You have to chew the bitter leaves in your mouth to avoid laughing."
"I will kill you! Sooner or later I will rush to Phomea and kill your father-in-law's family. When your father-in-law killed my stepfather, he used some high-sounding excuses, but it was just a knife without blood stains." Antony roared and was about to kill Eulabella in front of the synagogue.
Lepidus hurriedly held down the hilt of Antony's sword to prevent him from getting angry. At this time, Caesar also rebuked Antony majestically, and then said to the young man very humbly: "Everything cannot be as you wish. I will go to Phomea Manor on a certain day to personally pay a visit to your father-in-law, restore all his political power, and ask him to serve as the censor next year." Then he patted Lepidus on the back and told him, "The triumph and celebration activities are left to you. In addition, don't destroy the statue of Pompey, otherwise it will make us look too stingy. Just put it in front of the door of the Pompey Theater."
