[Ancient Rome] How to Divorce the Tyrant Nero

Claudius quickly agreed to Octavia's request, not because of how much he trusted his daughter or secretary, but because the existence of Brittanicus had violated his rule , and the bottom line of life. .

When Narcissus told Claudius the news of Nero's relationship with a female slave, he summoned his nephew and the female slave into the palace angrily, and was then persistently wanted to ask his father Brittany Kus, who was begging for rights, encountered a very embarrassing scene——

He is having sex with the beautiful Akdai.

Fortunately, when Brittanicus broke in, Nero was secretly taken away by Octavia, so Brittanicus did not encounter a more embarrassing scene.

Narcissus knew that the behavior of Claudius and Brittanicus was out of control.He even began to suspect that Octavia was not Claudius's biological daughter. Otherwise, with such parents, why would Octavia's behavior be so different from her brother's?

"Your Majesty, I think you should let Britannicus calm down." Narcissus, who came to clean up the mess, asked Akdai and Britannicus to be taken away, and then tried his best to calm down Claudius' anger.

"Boom!" Claudius slammed the cup that Narcissus handed him to the ground, and said angrily, "That's how you work? Are you all dead people who eat? Why don't you stop it?" Brittanicus."

As a doting father, Claudius rarely finds fault with Brittanicus, so he can only turn his anger on the servants.

Facing Claudius' anger, Narcissus also seemed aggrieved, but his loyalty to Claudius and his cautious character made him conditionally plead guilty to Claudius, After his anger receded, he slowly explained the reason, "I was talking to little Claudia about the Matrona's loan just now, and who among the servants here would dare to disobey your wife and children?"

Claudius' face eased a little because of the "loan".

Narcissus should be thankful that the emperor still cared about the survival of the country with his sane mind, so he struck while the iron was hot, "Little Claudia has been visiting the Matronas who agreed to borrow money these days. Thanks to her efforts, we I have already received a loan of 600 million sesterces, which can relieve His Majesty's financial difficulties to some extent."

"Octavia is like me." Claudius, who was always able to find comfort in another child, said with satisfaction, "She is always so reassuring in her actions."

Not like Brittanicus.

Thinking of another sad child, Claudius is in a good mood.

Narcissus, who noticed his face, took the opportunity to say, "Perhaps you should keep a certain distance from Britannicus."

It was the first time that Narcissus intervened in the issue of Claudius' children, so he seemed very nervous, "After all, you have your own private life, and Brittanicus is getting older, so it's not easy to keep going." Stay at your home. Perhaps Her Royal Highness should be made to take care of Brittanicus."

"Masselina?" Claudius sarcastically said, "Can she control Brittany Kus? Don't let Brittany Kus learn from her."

Narcissus really wanted to say that Britannicus could not learn well with Claudius, but his reason prevented him from taking risks, so he continued following Claudius's words "Perhaps little Claudia is a good choice."

Facing Claudius' thoughtful eyes, Narcissus bit the bullet and said, "Since Her Royal Highness can listen to little Claudia, so can Brittanicus."

"Besides, the matter between you and little Domitius needs to be kept secret."

At the end of the speech, Narcissus did not dare to look at Claudius' eyes.

The two were silent for a long time before Claudius said, "Let Brittanicus move in with Octavia."

At the end, he added, "If Brittanicus and the little bastards around him dare to do anything, let Octavia let go and deal with them."

"Yes." Relieved, Narcissus decided to take the opportunity to sell Octavia, but he unknowingly sent Titus to the wolf's den.

"Dear brother, I think this is a good opportunity for our family to return." Octavia, who had been waiting for Brittany, wore a false smile, and Brittany, who was not smiling, was at the door. Kus hugged him, then took his younger brother's hand into the room, his eyes glanced at the tense Titus, and he immediately understood.

"You must be very proud now." Brittany Kus, who couldn't resist his father, gritted his teeth, "I'm your prisoner now, and you can do whatever you want."

"Dear younger brother, don't speak so harshly in front of outsiders." Octavia's tone was very light, and the expression on her face remained unchanged. When you venture into your father's room recklessly, you deserve your head."

Brittany Kus didn't know where Octavia got the news from, he just felt a gust of cold wind blowing from the back of his neck, and his whole body shivered.

"Take care of the people around you, don't be sold and count the money for the other party." Octavia glanced at the panicked Brittany Kus, with the haughty attitude that irritated her younger brother, "I've saved I killed you twice, if there is another time, you have to think about your own funeral."

"Twice?" Brittanicus' expression was a little confused, which made Octavia very speechless.

"Once at the auction, it's another time for you to publicly oppose the rights and interests of the Matronas." Octavia's words brought back embarrassing memories for Brittany Kus, and even his aura towards Octavia was reduced. a cut.

"I'm that..." Brittanicus was about to defend himself, but Octavia slapped him before he could speak.

Everyone was stunned by this change, even Brittany Kus himself didn't believe that Octavia actually did something to him.

And still in public.

"You dare to hit me? How dare you hit me?" If Titus hadn't held Brittanicus back quickly, he might have fought Octavia.

"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, it would be hard for me to believe that you trust others more than your blood relatives." Octavia glanced at Titus with a sneer, and the latter shrank his neck reflexively, as if a little Guilt: "You should be thankful that you have a reliable partner by your side, otherwise, relying on your ears that can hear the wind and rain, I'm afraid you would have been executed by your father long ago..."

"Father won't..." Brittanicus was about to say something, but was interrupted again by Octavia.

"Lucius Junius Brutus executed his two sons with a club in order to safeguard the interests of the republic." Octavia wrote lightly, "If your stupidity shakes the rule of your father, why should he Are you still going to be stupid?"

"In addition, you'd better pray that the Matronas won't become enemies with you because of this, otherwise you will be the second Alexander IV in a short time."

The author has something to say:

The only son of Alexander IV, Alexander the Great, after Alexander's death, because of his mother's feuds everywhere (murder of Alexander's other wives and sisters), and Alexander's subordinates wanted a share, so he and his mother, The grandmother was also poisoned to death.

I would not let Octavia become emperor directly, because even if I gave her a golden finger (which I have done now), she would not be able to rise to the top in such a deep-rooted ancient era that just deprived women of political rights.It took Wu Zetian to become emperor for decades, relying on decades of dormancy to control the country little by little, and convinced the courtiers that she was the best ruler, but even so, she finally fell into a dilemma.Similarly, Catherine and the queens of Europe also had a long struggle to gain rights, and it was a small group of women at the top who gained limited rights.

I don't intend to let Octavia rely on a man to become emperor, because that is the most stupid way.

Many readers have also told me that getting old is easy, love is not strong, and only you are the most reliable.

As for the male protagonist, what should I say?Let's take turns being the dealer!
