[Ancient Rome] How to Divorce the Tyrant Nero

Otto had never been so humiliated.

He stood straight on the defendant's seat, like an extremely sharp sword, imagining that he could pierce Octavia's heart, so that she could experience the painful feeling of not being able to live and not being able to die.

However, Octavia will never be heart-to-heart with Otto.She had already planned Otto's ending even before the trial, but in the short communication with Narcissus just now, Octavia wanted to test the power of the Aventine Mountain, so she changed the assassination of Otto slightly. The details of Otto's death were thrown to others by the way.

"After the trial is over, you ask Scylla to come over." Octavia didn't know about Otto's chronic drug administration to Nero, so she wanted to end these things as soon as possible so that the people around Nero could be taken care of as soon as possible. Clean up.

At this time, Octavia didn't know that she had unknowingly become a feared dictator.

Narcissus felt that Octavia now made him feel very strange, even more terrifying than before-because Octavia wanted everyone to obey her, or turned some people into An isolated island under her control.

This made Narcissus miss the days when Claudius was still there, and at the same time, he was distressed that his master had left two little masters who were not easy to serve-the former was so clever that people were afraid, and the latter was so stupid that it made people people despair.But no matter which one it is, it can be said that things must be reversed when they are extreme, and abnormality is a demon.

It seems to be cursed from Uranus.

Thinking of this, Narcissus couldn't help being so dazed that Octavia didn't respond to calling him several times, and was finally woken up by the hostess.

"Narcissus, are you really listening to me?" Octavia asked her partner with a little displeasure, and the latter did not hide his rudeness, but quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, Your Highness, please repeat what you just said."

"I said, where is Otto most likely to be sent after he loses the lawsuit?" Because it was difficult for nobles in ancient Rome to be sentenced to death, especially those with a little power like Otto.Unless it is a crime of treason, it is not enough to put him on the gallows, but he will be exiled to a barbarian land in the name of transfer.

Octavia used to murder the heir to the throne and conspired to overthrow the rule of Claudius, executed Julia Livia and exiled little Agrippina.Then, three or four years after the young Agrippina was away from Rome, Tiberius' old department was asked to secretly murder her.

But when it came to Otto, unless Nero personally admitted that Otto had harmed him, it would be difficult for Octavia to sentence him to death, so it was just an itchy move to place other blame on Otto.

This forced Octavia to use other methods to kill Otto.

As she had done with little Agrippina.

"Your Highness, of course Mount Aventine has a way to kill little Agrippina without anyone noticing, but can you guarantee that after they clean up, no one will suspect that you led all of this?" Naerka Sous is by no means a man who likes to use violence to solve everything like Valerius Antieas, which is the main reason why Claudius will rely on him: "A lot of things are not what you think, the masses can Think as you would expect."

"In the past few years alone, [-]% of the political enemies who opposed the Claudius family have died. Although some of them died during the tenure of His Majesty Claudius, the direct line of Augustus, but there are also many who were killed during the transition of kingship. Asiacus, who was executed wantonly, is a faction of the Republican Party. His Majesty Nero has been on the throne for less than three years. If you kill people too quickly, you will always be suspected." Narcissus tried his best to persuade: " In case someone attributes the death of the Asiacus faction to you, how should you explain it? After all, His Majesty Claudius had already lost his mind at that time. Even if someone proves that His Majesty Claudius still has The ability to think, but who would trust the orders of a dying man."

"As for Lord Marcus Barbatus." Narcissus said helplessly, remembering the old man who had been in politics for decades: "Not to mention that you are the only Lord Marcus Barbatus. The heir, just say that Marcus Barbatus has reached that age, why did he "fake" the will of His Majesty Claudius and forcibly execute the opponents of the Asiaticus faction?"

It's not for Nero's throne to be secure, and Octavia and Brittanicus will not be settled by others.

Youdao has been a housekeeper for three years, even cats and dogs hate it.

No matter how good Claudius' emperor is, there will always be those who hate him.

Not to mention that Claudius was at best an upper-middle-level emperor, and he could barely count as more credit than fault during his reign.

After listening to Narcissus' analysis, Octavia drooped her long eyelashes, and her thoughtful look gave Narcissus a glimmer of hope: "Your Highness, you are not the emperor after all, so you are not the emperor." Like Tiberius or Caligula, even if they do something suspicious, some people will be afraid of the majesty of the emperor, or they can't find someone who can replace the emperor, so they choose to turn a deaf ear and muddle along."

"But the Queen is different."

Narcissus remembered that when Claudius was in power, he hesitated about Agripina the Great, and after careful consideration, he felt that Octavia needed to be a warning: "Nero's right to inherit the throne is not right. It comes from you, but from himself. Even if His Majesty Claudius intends to weaken his legitimacy in this regard before his death, no one will really ignore this."

"You mean, if I push that group of people into a hurry, they will let me die suddenly or instigate Nero to deal with me?" After all, the death of a queen is not as far-reaching as the death of an emperor.Claudius in history even indulged his subordinates to deal with Messerina, just because he had had enough of this lawless wife and had a better marriage partner.

Octavia had to admit that Narcissus' worries were not groundless, but at the same time, she knew very well that if she let Otto go lightly, there would definitely be endless troubles.

Thinking of this, Octavia turned her attention to the people around Otto, especially his wife Pompeia Sabina, and decided to find a perfect scapegoat for herself, and then deal with the couple cleanly.

"Leave this in advance, you'd better ask Scylla to come over. By the way, let Valerius Antias contact the people in Aventine Hill, and tell them that I have a big business to hand over to them. "Ottovia hopes that Otto will die before taking office, otherwise she will not be able to do anything when she leaves Rome.

But how can Otto die like an accident without being suspected?

Octavia's eyes shifted to the auditorium seats.

Noticing his gaze, Titus turned his head and gave Octavia a false smile.
