Augustus Road

In the first few rounds, Adiana and Euagete had very good luck. They could be heard playing gia and dio. However, Spences lost a lot of points because he was not familiar with the rules and was hesitant. Seeing that Matthias' chips were about to be used up, he was sweating profusely. If he lost all the chips and the high priest announced that the chips were five talents or ten talents, then his hard work in the Nicomedia Palace in the past two years would be in vain. This would be a big loss.

But when Spences was helpless, Lepidus calmly "counterattacked" - although Adiana and her son were very smart, it was their first time to come into contact with "Montanus", and the problems of novices were soon exposed, especially Adiana, whose beautiful eyes were wide open, but she only looked at the Montanus in her hand, but never looked at the cards that had fallen in the middle of the wall. As a result, when it was her turn to play several times, she suddenly realized that the Montanus she needed was gone, and she couldn't help but pouting in anger.

Afterwards, as long as someone played, Lepidus secretly planned in his mind, and it was easy to judge the Montanus that the other party wanted. After the information was one-way transparent, the high priest soon won a lot, and kept playing dio, and Matthias's hands were tired of flipping the board.

Soon, the court teacher had no way to retreat. He only had one chip left in front of him. It was time to fight back in desperation. At this time, his face was blue and white, and there was sweat. Although he wanted to maintain an expressionless "Montanus face" like the high priest opposite, some vulgar words that he would not say on weekdays also kept coming out of his mouth involuntarily with the ups and downs of the cards. He couldn't help but feel ashamed and terrified. "This Montanus card of Seris is cursed. It can definitely destroy the most civilized and polite philosopher!" He lamented in his heart.

"It's your turn!" At this time, the words of the high priest suddenly came to mind. It almost made Spences collapse, so he nodded repeatedly and grabbed a few cards in a panic.

But this time the cards seemed to be very clear, which made the court teacher overjoyed. Soon he played a card and said poi!

Libida had no expression on his face. Then he seemed to hesitate for a moment and played a card, "Celtic Chieftain."

"Gia! Gia! Gia! I got Gia!" The court teacher pushed the card. He immediately shouted, very proud, and even Youaijit applauded the teacher.

Just when Matthias was about to turn over the card, the high priest suddenly made a gesture to stop him, and then he slowly picked up the "Celtic Chieftain" card and arranged it between the court teacher's cards.

The court teacher smiled and spread his hands, indicating that he fully met the conditions of Gia, but the high priest then whispered, "Please count this deck of cards, including the ones that fell to the ground."

Counting. Spences' face turned blue, "Yes, yes, fourteen cards." Then he covered his chest, feeling that his heart was about to fall.

At this time, the high priest took out the tablecloth and wiped his hands gently. The servants around him did not dare to say anything. No one knew what this situation was. Only Adiana wanted to smooth things over for the court teacher, so she held the high priest's hand and said, "I think the court teacher should be fined half a talent for this kind of behavior."

"My dear, I'm not that petty. Spences' annual salary is probably only one talent. Just follow the rules." The high priest suddenly laughed, then he stood up and told everyone that the game was over because the court teacher had lost all the chips.

The servants also laughed and dispersed, preparing to do their own things. The high priest slowly walked to Spences and asked, "I should tell you now what kind of punishment you will suffer for your behavior just now."

"Please - please speak." Spences forced a smile.

"First of all, your fraudulent gia is called duang in the Seris Empire!" The high priest said angrily.

"Du, duang?" While Spencers was still frowning and trying to pronounce this word, Lepid suddenly grabbed Spencers' hair in front of Adiana and her son. The court teacher immediately howled, and then Lepid quickly dragged Spencers to the protruding terrace outside the small restaurant in full view of everyone. Then everyone in the restaurant heard the court teacher's scream that cut through the night sky, which was fleeting, followed by a dull and brilliant "duang" sound.

The terrace of the other palace is actually very high, about forty or fifty cubits, and below is a garden and square paved with marble. You Aijit was frightened, and then quickly ran over, and Adiana also came over.

Looking down from above, poor Spencers fell on the marble floor like a sleeping baby lying on his stomach, and the blood under his body kept flowing out, like a depression. Now he didn't even twitch, and he should have died as soon as he fell to the ground.

"You are such a lunatic!" Adianana felt that after so many years, she and the "ampherty jar" had finally exchanged roles - he replaced her who had cruelly killed her aunt that year, and was no longer the young man who dared not touch even the fallen enemies on the battlefield for the first time.

"Karabia, this has nothing to do with you. I'm not doing this for you, and I'm not blaming you." The high priest gently wiped his fingers twice in front of the fence of the terrace, and looked at Eugit who was shivering on the side. Then he turned back and walked into the restaurant, stood there, clapped his hands twice, and pointed to the stunned servants to the terrace outside the restaurant, where he had thrown the palace teacher just now, "This guy, The theft of the palace's assets was discovered by a maid. She couldn't bear to report it directly to the mistress and the young highness, but instead told me. "

Then, Lepidus waved his hand, and the girl who had been gifted by him during the day came out timidly and described to everyone in a low voice the story of "the theft of the palace teacher".

"Do you understand? I don't want something like this to happen again in the future. Adiana, find a reliable teacher for my child. It's best to be older, more steady, and without any bad habits. A teacher who can't If you want four or five people who can supervise each other, don’t look for them in cities like Miletus and Athens, but look for them from cities like Alexandria and Antioch, even if they are Gauls or Germans.” As Li Bida said this, he washed his hands at the water outlet in front of the wall of the restaurant, then touched his son's head who was still standing there, and walked out of the restaurant.

After arriving at the palace, Adiana followed angrily. She pushed Lepidus hard several times from behind the curtains and curtains, and pushed him to the wall. Then she approached him and said, "Aren't you jealous?" "Bences? Yes, I chose him because his appearance is somewhat similar to yours, but I spent so much time guarding my chastity for you, and I didn't even expect you to treat me the same way." (~ ^~)
