Chapter 13: Reunion with the Queen (Part 2)

Adiana didn't even change her dress into underwear, so she got dressed and fell asleep on the couch. However, the high priest crossed the curtain, and the female slaves outside lowered themselves in fear, preparing to accept the summons from the male master.

The high priest's eyes were fixed on a relatively innocent-looking young woman, so he called her to the corridor at the side entrance of the palace and handed her a pure gold coin.

The other party hurriedly lowered her head and said some random words that she did not dare to accept. Lepida laughed when he heard her helpless speech and comforted her, saying, "This is not some other gift. You have to do something for me."

Then he pointed outside the gate and said, "I'll give you half a day. Go to the horse farm over there first. The main thing is to see if my child, your little master, His Highness Yauaijit, is there. If so. If you are not here, you can use this purse to go to other servants and find out where he and Spencer are." After saying that, the high priest took out another small purse and handed it to the maid. In his hand, "I don't want you to do any other words or actions. How about this? This task can be completed easily. Go ahead."

In fact, even if the high priest did not comfort him with these words, the poor maid had to go. She took the money bag, thanked her and left.

Afterwards, the high priest strolled to the corridor in the garden outside, held on to the pillars, smiled and said hello to the gardeners who stood up and bowed, and then sat on a stone chair under the shade of the trees. He understood that after the lingering just now, Adiana was afraid that she would have a golden sleep within two days. He had plenty of time to wait for the maid's return.

Before the stipulated time was up, the maid came back quickly. She came to the high priest evasively, "How is it? Is Uaijit at the racecourse?"

The girl shook her head, and the high priest's fingers quickly moved twice. He suppressed his anger because there was no need to show it to irrelevant people. Then he continued to ask her about the whereabouts of Uajit.

"According to people familiar with the matter, His Highness is walking with the palace teacher in the temple jungle over there, discussing philosophical issues." The maid rubbed the hem of her skirt nervously. replied.

The high priest gave her another gold coin and told her to keep quiet. Then he got up and came to the small jungle at the foot of the palace as directed by the maid. When he heard someone laughing and whispering, he cleverly hid behind a big tree and pricked up his ears to listen carefully.

First came the voice of Spenser, very gentle and delicate, "Dear Euaget, since your mother has entrusted me to teach you everything in art and literature, why can't you be like a Greek, How about accepting our customs? From the god Apollo to the great Socrates and Plato, they all believe that the art of love and beauty can only be cultivated among noble men..."

Then, the palace teacher's words to Eugit became even lower, but Eugit's voice seemed to rise a few degrees from time to time, and it could be seen that his and Adiana's children were resisting the teacher's words. lure. Behind the tree, Lepidus moved his fingers even more intensely. He repeatedly scolded Adiana for being a woman who looked very smart but was actually a fool. First, because of missing him, he chose Spencers, who looked similar to himself. Bastard, then it's not clear that Spencers is constantly seducing his own son.

At this time, Spencer's offensive seemed to be more intense over there, and he began to attack in a roundabout way. Pointing to the creek on the other side of the jungle, he said, "What a beautiful river. It should wash away the dust and sweat of early summer at this time." After saying this, he took off his clothes and robes three times. Naked, he slowly walked into the stream, kept making various provocative expressions and gestures, and loudly called for Yoaijit to come down quickly and take a bath with him.

Uajit stood under the shadow of the trees and the grass, very distressed and hesitant. He held the reins of the horse tied in front of the tree and wandered in place. He was also a smart boy and knew that if he really went to perish, he would become a Greek, which would definitely make his mother unhappy. But he respected Teacher Spencer very much, because it was under his careful guidance in the past two years that he learned to write poems and praise the Sun God and the Muses. Although he had some sweet requests from him, he Always resisting politely.

The horse suddenly neighed twice uncomfortably. Uajit held his sword and turned around to see his father's tall figure looming over him.

"Father..." Youaijit's words were almost floating.

"Go to your mother's palace now." The father's words were very gloomy.

About a minute later, Spencers was still in the stream, rolling up and down naked, still shouting happily, "Your Highness, you don't know how cool this water is, combined with the singing of birds in the forest and The sound of cicadas makes it seem that this world belongs to you and me. We can wipe each other's bodies and talk about some syllogisms. Then I will apply ointment on you, and we will go to the gymnasium to sweat. It happens to be in the evening You can attend the dinner in no time!" When he saw no sound in the woods, he continued, "Don't you understand my loyalty and love for you? Didn't I guide you to give it to your father just now? After reading the poem, it can be seen that your father is very, very satisfied. In the future, his gift will be a kingdom, maybe the whole of Greece."

The leaves rustled, and Spences hurriedly turned his head in joy, stood up dripping wet, opened his arms, and shouted, "Come on, my Yoaijit!"

What he saw was that the high priest was wearing a cloak and standing opposite him, and the two were only about ten Roman rulers apart.

The whole stream seemed to be frozen, and Spences stayed there with his bare buttocks, with a stiff smile and open arms. He could not see any warmth in the high priest's eyes, neither angry nor happy.

"Dear teacher, if you go in the water to bathe, it is better to let my child sit on the shore instead of throwing him under the shade of the tree over there to read, because this mountain is still full of dangers." After a while, Lepidus said so.

Spences felt like he had come back to life. He quickly bent over and apologized to the high priest. He said that he would never make such a low-level mistake again. He would definitely fulfill his duties and not stop until he died. Even if there were wild beasts in the mountains to attack His Highness Youaijit, he would rather sacrifice himself!

"Well, this is very good. By the way, I am a little sleepy because of the trek, so I postponed the banquet to meet the Seris envoy to two days later. I will arrange a small private party tonight. You, Master, should also come to participate. Youaijit has already gone to the palace in advance." After saying that, Li Bi Da made a gesture, meaning Spences to follow, and then turned and left.
