"When he received a mysterious inspiration at the Temple of Siva, he transformed from a king educated by philosophers into a king with the power of the king." - Henry Bell commented on Alexander the Great

But Urabella had no intention of taking Cicero's lecture in her heart, so she just stood up and worshiped Turiya's tombstone, and then found an excuse to leave.
When he left, Cicero, who was so angry that he was helpless, lay on the couch, stared at the sunset in the sunset, and sighed as the noise in the house next to him was still constantly noisy.
"Is there really no way to solve this problem?" The younger brother Quindus also felt a little uneasy. Although he did not think his brother was a giant who was a world-class, Cicero had seen farther and deeper than many shallow people for so many years in politics. This is true.
"Previously, when Xiao Katu went to Gaul against Caesar, I thought Xiao Katu was completely overthinking, because since ancient times, the Republic has had its natural boundaries, not only in mountains and rivers, but also in the hearts of every citizen, but now I have to admit that Xiao Katu is a fighter who is an annoying fighter and a prophet who is powerless to turn the world back. In the face of interests and the army, no boundaries exist. Caesar said that he could get whatever he hoped to get. Perhaps many years ago, this country was no longer bounded by morality, law and tradition. Now Li Bida
There were six legions in his hands. These officers and soldiers were not interested in the concept of the Republic. They only listened to Li Bida's personal orders, just like many soldiers who were only Caesar's leader. The bloody struggle and civil war were about to break out again. Li Bida would never surrender. But the foolish people of Casca and Sipingzel were still believing that as long as most of the Senate passed the order, everything would be fine." After Cicero finished speaking, he could no longer hide his fatigue and decline. He slowly covered his face and repeatedly told his brother's question, "Is there really no solution?"
After a while, he suddenly put down his palm and said, "No, I should believe in my dream. Although danger is in front of me, the boy holding a horse whip will definitely seed the troubled times. Yes, I heard that child is now in southern Italy, Quindus, Quindus, you call Taylor now, his ears are not very good now. Ask him to draft letters for me. Cicero, at the last moment of his career, really make the most brilliant gift to the Republic."
"But, brother, what you should care about now is whether the issue of the trial of Li Bida will be standing on the high rock of the Temple of Jupiter, pushed down by the executioner, and become a delicious meal for the crows on the holy mountain? If you don't want the Republic to be trapped in war because of him, why not defend him?" Quindus complained.
"Judgement? This makes you so illusion that Casca's men have the power to judge him. I have worked in court all my life. He is the only one who can defeat me and Catu. At that time, he has no capital! Now a few clumsy pirates are going to chase a Dacian dragon full of scales and fangs on the ocean. Oh my God." Cicero smashed his mouth and said contemptuously, "The Senate will be panicked soon. Sipingel, Etius and Casca will soon look at each other. They will cry bitterly, and we must seize the opportunity to welcome the boy into Rome. The first good deed belongs to us, Quindus my brother."
On the street to Arimiron, the interim legal officer Malulas led a large city legion, panting, "If you work harder, he won't run far!" Malulas persistently followed the Emilian Avenue, encouraging the soldiers who were almost vomiting sour water. He believed that Li Bida was in the five Roman areas ahead.
Finally, under the shade of a large tree in front of a farm, they saw the entourage and guards resting there. All of these people were brought out by Libida. Malulas laughed loudly, and then he ordered all the soldiers to come forward, erected the signs, and asked everyone under the shade to stand up, and Libidaus came out, and he wanted to read out the order to the governor of the Macedonian province.
But no one listened to him. The leader Alp said to Malulas, "The Governor is almost leaving."
"What, who allowed him not to obey the orders of the Senate?" Malulas was filled with a grievance.
Alp shrugged his shoulders and shook his head, saying, "Oh, sir, he will leave if he wants to leave. We are just going to leave, and we don't know in advance that the Senate will come to the imperial order."
At this time, Malulas held the order and asked Alp to convey it to his master, but Alp stood far away and refused to accept it, "Oh my sir, you have to hand him this kind of thing."
"But where is he?" Malulas' heart was almost broken.
"Oh my sir, I don't know about this kind of thing. We are just following us." The entourages behind said in a verbal manner.
"There's a direction!" Malulas cried.
"Oh my god, this is the Avenue of Emili, there is Pinukem, there is Etruscana, there is Umbria, and there is the south to Lucania. When the Governor left, he did not tell us his destination."
"Catch you all back and question!" Malulas shouted.
Then, he saw that the people from his own city legion were retreating and leaving him ahead, so he really couldn't find the courage and capital to turn his words into actions, and could only stand there blankly.
At this time, Li Bida's entourage and the guards stood up in a whistle, began to carry their clothes, picked up flags and weapons, Alp turned back to Malulas and said, "The Governor told us that our team was waiting for him in Alimilon. May I ask if you want to come with us, and wait with us. I think you will be allowed to read the edict at that time."
"The Senate declares him a public enemy! Deprive the power of water and fire along the way!" Malulas finally plucked up the courage and shouted at Alp.
The other party just clicked his ears with his hands, indicating that he could not understand and was not interested in understanding. Then he stepped forward with the sound of the horn.
Now only Malulas is left, and a squad of soldiers are still standing there. The interim judicial officer looks at the sky with laughter and crying, and the birds on it are flying over his head. "Did Li Bida turn into a bird and fly away?"
"What has become a bird! You idiot!" After nightfall, at Kasillo's house, all the veterans who came to attend the meeting cursed Malulas, who had his hands full of crying faces, were so swearing. Then everyone held their heads and asked Sipingzel to come up with a solution to ask Li Bida to return to Rome as soon as possible for trial.
