[Ancient Rome] How to Divorce the Tyrant Nero

Claudius' unexpected accident made the engagement scene a mess.

Messalina, who suddenly screamed, pointed her spearhead at Nero, yelling for the Guards to execute Nero on the spot, so that Marcus Barbatus had to clamp Messalina's arm, Signal Octavia to take Nero away.

"Where are we going?" A panicked Nero held Octavia's hand tightly and followed her through the crowd.

"Go to a safe place." Octavia noticed that some guests had already begun to send news to the outside world, fearing that the people from Asiacus would attack the palace and make Nero the puppet emperor: "If you don't leave me again Mother's sight, will be killed by her sooner or later."

"Will I really die here?" Nero recalled the scene when Caligula sent someone to raid his house when he was a child, so he forced a smile: "If I really want to die, I hope I can die more beautifully."

Octavia didn't speak, but kept praying in her heart that Claudius would be safe.

Because the Romans don't let children take power, the best case scenario is someone regent for the new emperor, and the worst case scenario is to directly choose an adult emperor reserve.

Looking at the family tree of Augustus, if it is the second type, then the most likely to be elected is the eldest son of Emilia Lepidus. The latter will turn 16 this year. Tanikos is reliable, so...

"Go and send a message to your grandfather, asking him to send someone to control the family of Appius Jr., you must find the eldest son of Appius Jr. and Emilia Lepidus, and then..." Octavian Ya hid Nero in a cabinet, then found Narcissus, and gestured to him to cut his throat.

It just so happened that Narcissus also had such a plan, but while nodding, he secretly glanced at the direction where Nero was hiding, and gestured to Octavia to kill the weeds.

"No, he's still useful now." Octavia refused, "If something happened to my father, then the Senate would probably ask about Nero's whereabouts. If we can't hand him over at that time, The consequences would not be much better than for the wives and daughters of Alexander the Great."

"But the faction of Asiacus..." Narcissus hesitated, "They will definitely welcome little Agrippina back to Rome."

"She will not return to Rome." Octavia pointed out: "I will guarantee Nero's safety." So little Agrippina can only die on Capri Island.

………………… I am the dividing line…………………

The accident of Claudius at the engagement ceremony not only plunged Rome into panic, but also made all kinds of conspiracies clamor.

Some people say that this was the murderous hand of the opponents of Claudius, in order to let Nero ascend the throne, so as to continue the will of Augustus to make Germanicus inherit the throne.

Some people also said that this was a conspiracy by Marcus Barbatus, because he was no longer satisfied with being the right-hand man of Claudius, so he wanted to exterminate the direct male heirs of Augustus and become emperor.

Some people even say that this is the curse of the Claudius family, because Claudius' predecessor and nephew, Caligula, fell into unspeakable madness after a sudden serious illness.

However, no matter what kind of speculation, before Claudius was officially buried, any remarks about the emperor's death could be regarded as treason, so the Senate didn't know what to do for a while, and wanted to imprison all those present, but the imperial guards The real power of the army is in the hands of the Claudius family, so the Senate can only shout slogans and cannot be the actual master.

Nero was released from the cabinet by Octavia after the guests who participated in the engagement were almost gone.At that time, there were only him and Octavia in the room, so Nero held Octavia's hand tightly, fearing that his fiancée would disappear in a second.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid." Octavia wanted to go to Claudius' bedroom to check the situation, but she couldn't go anywhere because of Nero's trip, so she could only coax a person who was two years older than her here. child.

However, Octavia's reassurance did not relieve Nero's nervousness much. On the contrary, it made him more sticky to Octavia, and even wrapped his arms around Octavia's waist from behind, and then buried his head in the roof Via's shoulder.

"Octavia, if I can't live long enough to share the joy with you, please bury me in your garden so that I can see you all the time." Nero at this time is very much like a man in Roman mythology. The tragic figure is preparing for the last performance in his life.

"Don't say stupid things, you can survive." At this moment, Octavia suddenly felt that it would be good for Nero to die.

If Brittanicus can successfully succeed to the throne, Octavia can give up everything she has and spend the rest of her life on an island far away from Rome with a sum of money.

However, all of this is just Octavia's short-term delusion. Even if Brittany Kus can accept Octavia's retreat, her blood and special status will make it difficult for her to live in peace.

This is the price you have to pay after being born in the royal family and participating in the game of thrones.

"Little Claudia, Lord Marcus Barbatus, please take little Domitius there." When the morning light dawned, Narcissus knocked on Octavian, smelling of blood. Ya's door, and looked at Nero behind Octavia with a bad look: "We have found the clue of His Majesty's poisoning."

Facing the malice from Narcissus, Nero shrank subconsciously behind Octavia, which made Narcissus look at him with a hint of disdain.

When Octavia brought Nero to Claudius' bedroom, the emperor's big bed seemed extremely small surrounded by a group of people.

Claudius on the hospital bed aged rapidly overnight. He was clearly under 90 years old, but he was bent like a [-]-year-old man. Only the constantly squirming lips and the voice like a gossamer showed the highest status of the empire. The ruler is still alive.

"Who did it to father?" Looking at Claudius's current appearance, Octavia was a little sad, but she was not as sad as expected.

"It's His Majesty's mistress, Cassiponia." Narcissus glanced at Octavia secretly, and pretended to explain calmly: "His Majesty's new mistress, Cleopatra, report Cassiponia fed His Majesty the Emperor's Majesty the pleasure-enhancing drug mixed with poison, we have checked with a poisoner, and it contains refined SWC and forked-tooth snapper powder."

"Isn't this the most commonly used medicinal herb? And it's often burned in the temple sacrifices." Messalina, who is good at seeking pleasure, asked subconsciously for personal reasons.

"A small amount of SWC can relieve pain and help sleep, but the SWC in it has not only been refined, but also mixed with forked tooth snapper powder with the same effect." Lukusta, who was in charge of the drug test, told Crowe Dius's blissful drug was fed to a cat, which made a purring sound, and soon fell limply to the ground, showing a posture of being drunk.

"This kind of thing will not be fatal immediately, but it will gradually become | addictive over time, causing the body to become weaker and weaker day by day."

After hearing Lukusta's words, Messalina showed a terrified expression, and decided to throw away all her SWCs after returning.

"Can it be cured?" Marcus Barbatus frowned fiercely, and Narcissus subconsciously stood behind Nero to prevent the people from the Senate who kept approaching forcibly taking Nero away. Walk.

"I don't know." Lukusta wanted to say that Claudius was hopeless, so just prepare the coffin!But considering that she might not be able to get out alive after saying this, she said tactfully: "It should take a long time."

This is tantamount to pronouncing that Claudius is useless.

It was at this moment that an elder suddenly pushed away Narcissus in front of him, grabbed Nero's arm and tried to take him away forcibly.

"Nero!!!"

"Little Domitius!!!"

Octavia, who reacted extremely quickly, directly pulled out the b-i'sh0u used for self-defense, and slashed at the elder who was holding Nero, and pulled the frightened Nero behind her amidst the opponent's pain.

The author has something to say:

Favorites are rising.

There is a hallucinogenic SWC, which is the oldest hallucinogen, and taking too much can cause death.Deaths from smoking the plant have previously occurred in Mexico and the United States.The reason why I use letters instead is because I am afraid that someone will do a big death, so I didn't write it directly.
