Roman Slave Owner

I hear you've been in trouble lately, when a young man sued you for having an affair with a Vesta virgin.

Serapio said calmly.

This is absolutely slander, naked slander. I just fell in love with her real estate and wanted to make a deal with her. There is absolutely no improper relationship.

Crassus said with some embarrassment.

Vestal virgins, also Vestal virgins, must remain chaste.

Once it is confirmed that Crassus had an affair with her, it would be blasphemy and a capital offense.

Yes, I think so too, but I think some people may not understand the truth. You know, there must be some of us on the jury, and I think they can help you sometimes.

Serabio said.

Without your people, I can solve this matter. I don't need your help at all.

Crassus said lightly.

Can you let Publius go outside for a while, I have some very, very important things I want to talk to you in private.

Serabio said.

Okay, Publius, you go outside and play for a while.

Crassus said.

Okay, father.

Publius left here obediently.

What an obedient child.

Says Serabio.

Crassus looked at him indifferently, Is there anything I can say.

The head of the family said that he hopes to form a three-person alliance with you and Pompeo. The three of us should support each other. If you want to be a judge or consul, the head of the house and Pompeo will fully support you.

Serabio said with a smile, and at the same time there was a hint of envy in his eyes.

The justice still has hope, but the consul is very difficult, even with Li Wei's full support, it is very difficult.

What did you say?

Crassus said with a look of shock: Alliance?

Yes, this is good for us. The entire Senate is in our hands, and we can even control the entire Rome.

Serabio said.

Cerabio admires Li Wei's idea very much. If this idea can be realized, the whole of Rome will be controlled by three people.

Crassus couldn't help but ponder. Although he is less than 39 years old now, he will soon be.

If there is the support of Li Wei and Pompey, then becoming a justice is a sure thing, and the hope of the consul is also great.

but……

It really touched my heart.

Crassus said, I also want to agree, but the premise is that you have to get through this hurdle.

So you're not going to help.

Serapio's face was ugly.

No, I'm just going to be neutral, don't get me wrong.

Crassus said quickly.

There is no neutral in this war. This is what the Patriarch asked me to tell you. If you choose to refuse, you are the enemy.

Serabio said.

Are you sure you're right?

Crassus said with disbelief, Li Wei actually threatened him?

Now that he was in trouble, he couldn't protect himself, and he even threatened himself, the only person who could help him.

Yes, these are the original words of the Patriarch. Tell me your choice, enemy or friend. If you say enemy, I will leave now.

Serabio said.

Crassus was a little confused for a while, and Li Wei was simply too unexpected.

Soon he was angry, and it was just too hateful.

It's simply presumptuous...

Crassus was so angry that he became incoherent.

Serapio watched him silently, waiting for his choice.

Well, I tell you, I chose the enemy.

Crassus said loudly.

as you wish.

After saying that, Serabio turned around and left here without looking back.

At the same time, he sighed, Patriarch, I did as you asked, why on earth are you so tough.

In fact, Crassus regretted it after he finished speaking, but he couldn't hold back his face, so he could only watch Serabio leave.

After Serabio left, Publius returned to this room, and he looked at his father with some dissatisfaction.

Father, do you really have anything to do with that Virgin of Vesta?

How is this possible? I just saw her property, that's all.

I just don't know why, but Publius feels that his father's eyes are a little evasive, and recently his mother seems to have been showing his father's face.

In Dragon City, Li Wei had a sneer on his face when he heard the news from Serabio.

You turned it down! Crassus, I hope you will not regret your choice.

What happened.

At some point, Emilia walked in wearing a long dress.

Nothing, Crassus rejected my kindness.

Levi said.

Then what are you going to do?

Emilia said with a worried face.

Of course it's marching into Rome.

Li Wei said lightly.

Are you really going to do this?

Emilia said in horror, this is a rebellion.

That's right, I have no way out.

Levi said.

In fact, he has always wanted to develop wretchedly. Since someone wants to suppress him, then he will kill a bloody river and let them know the fate of suppressing him.

Of course, according to Li Wei's vision, there are actually ways to solve this problem.

Emilia didn't speak for a long time, then hugged him gently.

No matter what you do, I will support you.

Li Wei's heart trembled, and he said softly, I'm sorry.

The meaning of this is probably only he understands.

We don't need to talk about this between us.

Emilia said softly.

Do you think I might lose?

Li Wei said with a smile.

Emilia thought about it, and finally shook her head, but the worry on her face couldn't deceive anyone.

Don't worry, the true god has already taught me a powerful weapon, this time it's time for it to shine.

Levi said.

What weapon?

Emilia asked curiously.

You will know tomorrow. Remember that I am the prophet of the holy religion. I have received the oracle, and I will surely win.

Li Wei said with a smile.

Emilia had a dazed look on her face, and said such things at any time.

The next day, outside Dragon City, all four legions were gathered by Li Wei.

They are also aware of what happened recently, so they are very disturbed.

In addition, there are still a large number of Capua elders and Pompey's messenger Demetrius standing on the city wall. Pompey wants to ask what to do next.

Li Wei didn't answer, but pulled him to the city wall.

The elders were talking in low voices, but they were not very optimistic about Li Wei.

Things have come to this point, Li Wei's best end is probably to disband the army, and then be politically hunted down by some people in Rome.

Li Wei stood on the city wall, watching them quietly.

He saw their fear, their uneasiness, but he believed that after today they would never be uneasy.
