Chapter 28 Portia's Blood (Part 2)
When the ranks of virgins walked out of the alley and many blessings were kneeling down there and worshipping, Anthony was still standing in the original place, with a blue face and a twisted corner of his mouth. ```Yes, he was a naturally slutty and optimistic person, but there was always a concept in Anthony's world that would be rewarded if he paid. This is also the belief that all Roman nobles followed, "get rewards, and be blessed with possession." Anthony is naturally no exception.
In fact, if Anthony was a careful and rational person, he might think about why the Virgin said these things to him, because according to regulations, Virgins is not allowed to disclose the contents of the private will to other people. However, Anthony is Anthony, and this result almost knocked him down. However, he quickly turned around with a resentful mood, "Press the list, but continue to persuade Caesar quietly and observe the situation."
"Oh, you said there was a conspiracy group against me recently?" Caesar rarely came to Julius' compound today, sat in the atrium with several staff members, eating olives and discussing political affairs. After Anthony came in to report the incident, he said inadvertently.
"Yes, and according to the insider, there are many people close to you in this group." Anthony's words made everyone present tremble, whether they were afraid or shocked.
Caesar didn't answer anything directly. He just lowered his hand in the chair and said nothing, and then he said to Anthony, "Lipidaus is about to arrive in Brindisi?"
Several staff members took the opportunity to say that the general had about one market day and would be able to come to the city before the Wolf Chasing Festival to host the latest Tribs Citizens.
"Send a letter quickly and ask him to bring the Sixth Army over. It is stationed on the grounds of the Mars University Colonel; and Anthony. You will find a few civilian guardians and gather the people. I will announce a major decision in the square." Then, Caesar stood up, dressed in plain robe, and walked out of the courtyard with all his staff.
About two days later, the people who were summoned to the square by the guardians saw Caesar wearing simple clothes. Surrounded by three hundred strong guards, they stood on the bow pulpit. When the people saw the terrifying weapons and bows and arrows worn by the guards, they were filled with extreme fear and anxiety. However, Caesar then stroked the podium with his hands a few times, and then Caesar publicly said to everyone:
"Actually I should have made such a decision, that is, the tragic civil war, the civil war that seized half of the lives of the citizens has completely ended, and once again Rome was going to use troops to the distant and rich foreign lands, and I was authorized by the legitimate Senate and the People's Congress. As Dick Thiddor, I was fully responsible for this matter. But recently there have been many clear or unclear words, some of which were slandered by my enemies, and some of which were my friends, and even the people, saying that I, Julius, attempted to be king, establish a permanent dictatorship, and become a mind that replaced the thinking of the people. This is a great misunderstanding of me, and I must be honest with everything I do,
It is for the revival of the Republic's vitality. So I expanded the number of Senate and the People's Congress to allow more people to participate in the country. However, many conservative stubborn people always believed that they should always occupy everything in this country. For this group of people, I have forgiven them before. As we all know, Caesar did not promulgate a public enemy declaration during the Civil War, but I now decided to continue to forgive these people, hoping that they could reunite under the banner of the Republic. So in order to show my sincerity this time, so as to avoid unnecessary insults, I am determined to dismiss the guards of the Spaniards and Gauls around me."
His announcement aroused an uproar, with civilians and knights holding up their hands to cheer Caesar's frankness and kindness, but many people mixed in the crowd began to cheer, and some shouted, "Julis, you are cheating everyone, why don't you disband your legion?" Someone also cheered, "I heard that your deputy is about to bring another legion into Rome."
However, Caesar did not refute this at all. He just walked off the pulpit with various voices. Then he immediately fulfilled his promise. Several civilian guards stopped the barbarian guards who were still inertial. In the end, Caesar walked back to the Julius compound with only a few close aides.
About three days later, Brutu, who went to pay homage to his mother, learned from Sevilla's decision. The young son didn't say much. He just chatted with his mother for a while and then stood up and said goodbye and returned to his home. There, Kasio was waiting for him. The name of the meeting was an invitation to a dinner party. "Caesar is a scam." After leaving all the servants, Kasio sneered and said that he was coming for Caesar's decision at this moment. "While he shook his olive branch, Li Bida was bringing a whole army into Rome. Maybe after you and I were exposed, he would ask the soldiers to kill us and the entire tribe without hesitation."
"Don't be so angry with Caesar. Always say that he is a liar. Everything we do is for the country and justice. And Longinus, you, it seems that we are taking personal revenge." Brutu was dissatisfied with the other party's attack on Caesar so resentful. "In addition, even if we fail, Caesar will deal with it according to the law. When he was a legal officer, he refuted most people in the Senate and advocated giving Kathirin a fair and reasonable treatment."
"Are you scared? You are scared of Brutu, again!" Kasio immediately jumped up and patted his chest and said, "That's right, I am an impulsive person. Although I try my best to hide my emotions on weekdays, I marry her regardless of the ugly news of your sister and Caesar. I hope to work with you in a just cause for the country, but you are frightened and unsteady. You are disappointed to all those who sacrificed for the Republic. Do you know? I was still in the college back then.
When I was studying, Sula was the dictator of the entire country, and was at its peak. His son boasted in front of his classmates that his family was the first family of the Republic. When other classmates were as submissive as you, I rushed up and slapped his son a few times, because my personality was always like this, and I could not listen to any shameless words of dictators. If everything had to be followed by the thinking of a philosopher, then the country would be unsuccessful."
After saying that, Kasio waved his fists, "Listen, Caesar disbands the guards, it is gentle to you, and for me, that's a good opportunity, because he can't walk on the street with a legion." Then he snatched out viciously.
