Ancient Rome: From Slave Owner to Supreme Emperor

Sinique's meaning was very clear. They revolted because the Roman reinforcements were late, and the reason why the Roman reinforcements were late was because of Ye Tian.

Therefore, Ye Tian was also partly responsible for their revolt. They were not only shirking responsibility, but also threatening Ye Tian.

"You mean, I am responsible for your betrayal of Rome?"

Ye Tian sneered.

"At least part of the reason!"

Take a deep breath, Sinik said firmly, he knew that Ye Tian wanted to show them his power, so he didn't want to compromise, otherwise he didn't know what price he would pay. Even if he had to compromise, he had to get bargaining chips.

Ye Tian summoned them, his intention was too obvious

"My lord, the situation is critical now, and the riots of the allies are very violent. Since you have brought the Roman reinforcements here, we are willing to submit and cooperate with you from Rome! I think my lord should put the overall situation first. If you want to hold us accountable, you should wait until we defeat the allies together. At that time, we are willing to accept all punishments from you, my lord!"

Sinique was strong, but he knew when to stop. He planned to persuade Ye Tian with reason and emotion, and at the same time take the initiative to make concessions and cooperate with Ye Tian so that Ye Tian would also stop while he was ahead.

If it were anyone else, even Suramarius and the others would make concessions here and stop while he was ahead. After all, the overall situation should be put first.

However, Ye Tian is not like other Romans. This is already his private territory. No one can disobey him, let alone threaten and force him to make concessions.

If he doesn't suppress these nobles today, how can he rule in the future?

"Are you threatening me?"

Ye Tian narrowed his eyes slightly, then asked calmly

"No, I'm telling the truth. We revolted because you were late. We couldn't resist the army of our allies. We trusted Rome, but Rome failed us! So, I hope you won't pursue this matter, and we won't report it to Lord Sulla in Rome!!"

Sinique frowned slightly, and the threat became more obvious. He even brought up Sulla, but he didn't know that Sulla had been killed by Ye Tian. Otherwise, he would definitely regret having Sulla as his backer.

"Yes, sir, it's better to leave it like this, otherwise, we will send a message to Lord Sulla and Lord Pompey! This is not good for anyone. If we continue to fight internally, it will not be good for Rome at all, and it will also be very disadvantageous to you, sir!!"

Another old man stood up and said with a sneer.

Although Ye Tian came from Rome, he was still a young man after all. He didn't believe that Ye Tian was not afraid of Sulla and Pompey. Moreover, now they have caught the young man's handle.

Therefore, they are getting bolder and bolder.

"Sir, our administrator has died in the battle. Please elect two new administrators for us!"

Sinike said to Ye Tian indifferently, giving Ye Tian face.

"It seems that you want to be the administrator!"

Ye Tian smiled and asked lightly

"I think I have the ability, but I still need the nomination of the adults and everyone's support!!"

Sinike smiled, thinking that Ye Tian had compromised and given in.

After all, young people are young people, their experience is too shallow, and their qualifications are too shallow. Just mentioning the Roman senators and nobles will stun him.

What if he has strong military talent? He is not yet played around by them.

"I support Sicknick to be the administrator this term!"

"Yes, Lord Sinik is qualified to be an administrator in terms of character, ability, wealth and prestige!"

"I also support Lord Sinik to become the administrator. His wealth is enough to provide us with more soldiers!"

……

Sinik really had a certain prestige and had many supporters in the Senate. In addition, he stepped forward and resolved a crisis for everyone. Therefore, before Ye Tian even opened his mouth, almost all the elders stood up for him. At this time, they were united, temporarily put aside their grievances, and stood together to let Ye Tian see their strength and compromise with them.

At least, in the eyes of many, Ye Tian had already backed down. If they pushed him a little harder, maybe the command of the soldiers they recruited could return to their hands.

Sinik smiled slightly, looked at Ye Tian, and said nothing, waiting for Ye Tian to speak.

"Sini Ke, are you rich?"

Ye Tian asked calmly with a glimmer of joy in his eyes. If there is a faster way to make money than robbing, it must be to confiscate the house.

"Compared with the nobles in Rome, it's not much, but it's still good in Esenia!"

Sinique said with some pride, he is the richest man in Esenia

"Not bad, very good, I like it very much! By the way, you mentioned Lord Sura just now, it seems that you are very familiar with him?"

Ye Tian asked humbly

"Yes, Lord Sulla and I have been close friends for a long time. When he was the inspector of Esenia, I assisted him. Although he has left office, we often exchange letters!"

Sinique was even more proud, because he knew that Sulla's current status in Rome was definitely not something a young man could underestimate.

"What about you?"

Ye Tian asked another old man

"I have a good relationship with Lord Sulla, but I also often exchange letters with Lord Pompey!" said the old man proudly.

"So, Pompey and Sulla are your backers?"

Ye Tian smiled with a hint of coldness.

"What do you mean?"

Seeing Ye Tian's face and expression change, Sinik felt something was wrong.

"Bardock!"

Ye Tian shouted

""My master, please!"

Bardock was already unhappy when he saw these elders threatening and using their power to suppress his master, so he drew his dagger.

"Take down this old guy for me!"

Ye Tian ordered.

"As you command!"

Bardock grinned and slowly walked towards Sinik.

"Damn it, what do you want to do? I'm from Sura, you will expose your……"

The sudden turn of events made Sinik confused, and he shouted at the top of his lungs.

The next moment, a dagger was placed directly on his neck, forcing him to shut up.

"Kneel down!"

Bakda kicked him on the knee, making him kneel down.

"Chop him up!"

Ye Tian ordered coldly.

"Sir, please spare my life.……"

"Sir, I was wrong, forgive me……"

Sicknick broke out in a cold sweat. He had miscalculated. This young man was too brutal. He could not control him. He would not accept threats from others. He regretted it and begged frantically.

""Poof!!"
