Roman Slave Owner

Chapter 211: confusion

   In Rome, women cannot be guardians. In other words, after the father of a Roman child dies, even if his mother is not dead, then he can still be regarded as an orphan and can find another guardian.

   Luculus, wearing a white toga, stood up and read the eulogy aloud.

   I don't know when it will start, the sky is covered with dark clouds, and then there is a rumble of thunder.

   A light rain gradually began to fall in the sky, and Luculus’s voice echoed in the rainy square, looking solemn and solemn.

After reading   , several strong elders resisted Sula's body, then left Rome and walked to Mars Square, the **** of war outside Rome.

   The bugler played mourning music along the way. Li Wei, the veterans and the army followed behind the bugler, and then came to the Mars Square outside the city.

   There is already a huge pyre here, and the veterans put Sula's body on the pyre.

   "Do you want to be cremated?"

   Li Wei whispered.

   "The tradition of the Cornelius clan is burial, but the Senate disagrees. At the time Sura dug out Mallor's body, some people said that he was worried that his body would be desecrated and said that he should be cremated first and then buried."

   Serabio said meaningfully.

   Mallor’s remains were thrown into the Tiber River by Surah, so don’t you want Surah to be better?

   Li Wei despises for a while, the political struggle in Rome has reached the point where the dead are affected.

   The pyre quickly ignited, and then Sura’s body was burned into ashes.

   was finally buried in the central cemetery of Mars Square, where the past emperors of Rome were buried.

   Finally, a tombstone was erected, with the epitaph written by Sura herself written on it.

   There is revenge for revenge, and there is gratitude for gratitude.

   Even with the benefit, double the pay off.

  The state funeral is over, but there is still an atmosphere of panic and anxiety throughout Rome. Some nobles and knights have escaped from Rome.

   Because the more than 80,000 soldiers did not leave Rome, some camped in Mars Square, and some wandered around in Rome. They want to participate in a civic assembly, and Leibida will hold a civic assembly to vote to deprive them of their land.

   Those angry soldiers tried every means to vent their anger, and the whole of Rome was trembling in their anger.

  In the face of this situation, the Senate again held an emergency meeting to discuss countermeasures.

   Leipida is located outside the villa on Silio Mountain. Hundreds of veterans are yelling at the villa.

   "Leibida, what do you think you are? You want to confiscate our land. I tell you the truth, if my land is really gone, I will kill you sooner or later."

   "You insidious villain, how did Sura promote you in the first place, and you betrayed Sura? The most despised person in my life is the betrayer."

   "Don't think that you are a leader of the ordinary faction. Even if you are the leader, we will kill you sooner or later."

   "……"

   Listening to all kinds of foul language and even life-threatening words, Leipida's villa is always closed at the door, not even opened.

   Inside the villa, Leibida's face was pale, he knew that from today onwards, he was really ruined.

   was blatantly insulted by so many people and didn't dare to respond, secretly I don't know how many people were laughing at him.

   This is what he is worried about. He is most worried about Li Wei inciting these veterans to have a massacre or something.

He believes that those veterans can definitely do it. In recent years, some veterans are not good at business and even participate in gambling. They have already wiped out their own land and hope to make a fortune in the chaos. He sees too much of this kind of thing. Up.

   At this time, twelve guards with ***** came here to protect Catullus. Seeing this kind of honor, the veterans of course knew who the person was.

   But they still stopped Catullus' team unceremoniously, and a representative of a thirty-something veteran came out.

   "Consultant Catullus, what are you doing here?"

   "Dear veterans, I came here by the order of the Senate to persuade Leipida to abandon the convening of the citizens' assembly. His ideas are a bit improper and have caused too much damage to everyone's interests."

   Catullus showed a gentle smile on his face.

"is this real?"

   An veteran said in surprise.

   "It is true. In fact, many elders do not approve of this. It's just that Leipida and a few people will go it alone. I hope everyone can stay calm and believe that the Senate can handle this matter."

   Catulus said.

  The veterans looked at him suspiciously. The senior officials in Rome really broke their hearts. Except for a few people, they didn't believe anyone at all.

   "Let’s make a way for the consul in. Regardless of whether what he said is true or not, if someone dares to deprive us of our land, we will fight with them."

   a centurion said loudly.

   "That's right, if anyone dares to take our fields, I will kill them all."

   "Kill their whole family!"

  "..."

   The veterans shouted.

   Looking at these arrogant veterans, Catullus was extremely embarrassed.

   But he still maintained a good demeanor and knocked on Leipida's door.

   After discovering that it was Catullus, they quickly opened the door.

   When Catullus saw Lepida again, he almost couldn't recognize the consul.

   I saw his eyes full of bloodshot eyes and a decadent face, and he was holding a bottle of brandy and pouring it, which was a world of difference from the spirited spirit of the previous day.

   This made him sigh inwardly. Although he and Leibida had a political disagreement, he was quite pity when he saw him like this.

   "What are you doing? Come to see my joke?"

   Leipida laughed and said ~lightnovelpub.net~ No, the Senate hopes that you can cancel the convening of the citizens' assembly and stop accusing Li Wei or passing those laws. The development of things has exceeded our expectations, and the elders hope that Rome can return to stability. "

   Catulus said.

"Why? What qualifications do they have to cancel my citizens' assembly? What mistake did I make and they want to treat me this way? Is the massacre of Sura right? Ask me to say that the elders are just a bunch of cowards, just a bunch of cowards, Seeing so many soldiers, they want to kneel on the ground and lick their feet..."

   Leipida said angrily.

"you're drunk."

   Catulus said.

   "I'm not drunk, you can honestly say, am I right."

   Leipida grabbed Catullus by the collar and said, smoky wine rushing over her face.

   Catullus gave a wry smile. It seems impossible to convince him today.

  ***

   Late at night, a grand banquet was being held in Luculus’ villa.

The people of the    Sula family are celebrating their great victory this time. Various ladies and celebrities gather, and the veterans under Li Wei also participated in it.

   They had already cleared the way for this. Serabio was fighting fiercely with several noble ladies, and now he has completely released himself.
