Augustus Road

In the end, the situation calmed down temporarily. The high priest sat on an armchair, raised his hands slightly, and after sorting out his thoughts, whispered to his troubled daughter, "Okay, good girl, who is he? What is his name?" name?"

"Ossetinius, a chief in the land of Alan." The daughter said still in shock.

The high priest nodded repeatedly, then pointed his finger at the tall Ossetinius and said, "Okay, Ossetinius."

"It's Ossetinius, father." The daughter protested dissatisfiedly. After she stabilized, she didn't care about her father's current status.

"Okay, I know, of course I'm not deaf now. My good girl - then Othinius, my dearest friend, I don't care which tribe you came from, and I don't care who your ancestors are. Who is it? But now I want you to divorce my daughter. The right divorce means leaving each other." As he spoke, the fierce high priest was afraid that the barbarian would not understand what he meant, so he made a separation gesture with his hand, "As a result. In return, I will let you become the monarch of a quarter of Colchis, with an annual income of 200,000 dinars of silver, which you will never get even if you rob in the steppes and deserts for half your life. How about it, Otyni Us, Osenius...Okay, screw it, I'm too excited, but you'd better not let my excitement turn into anger and catastrophe." As he said, the high priest waved his hand. Continuing to sit back down, he wanted Ossetinius opposite to think carefully and it would be best to agree to his request immediately, without any doubt.

The tall barbarian man became a little excited immediately. He shouted Aramaic loudly, as if he wanted to argue with his father-in-law. In the past, Lepidah would definitely be very interested in the original Aramaic, but now he In his ears, it was almost the same as the barking of an animal. Frankly speaking, he had no personal grudge against this guy who looked like "Professor Hagrid", but he was just annoyed that this guy actually married his daughter without his knowledge. Got it. It's simply unreasonable.

As a result, Nicole held the man's hand, telling him not to be emotional. The two chatted intimately in a low voice, seeming to encourage each other. This made the high priest's nose almost crooked with anger.

"Father, it is completely unreasonable for you to do this. Ossetinius was chosen by me. He is my husband, and we will raise our children in the future. After hearing that you were going to conquer Parthia, Ossetinius and I Because Nius is familiar with the geographical location of this battlefield, he volunteered to come to the army to meet you, hoping to serve as a guide, but I didn't expect you to be so rude and unhuman. I have no interest in this Mindaz at all. ." As she spoke, Nicole pointed at Mindaz, causing him to bow awkwardly and retreat to a corner, for fear of being sucked into the whirlpool.

The high priest saw his daughter like this. Also a little anxious, he said to his daughter, "You are my daughter, just like an impatiens, and this guy is a wild boar. I want to protect my garden from being ruined by this wild boar."

"Father, your description is simply insulting to me and my mother. When you and my mother gave birth to me, there was nothing attractive about you in her eyes. You are also Zhu Jiao. You are a weak impatiens, but my mother is a brave wild boar. She just wants to use you to leave outstanding offspring like me." Nicole was not good at using words and became anxious. Some words that could not have been said on such an occasion just came out of his mouth like a torrent.

At this time, everyone's eyes turned to the "delicate impatiens" who was temporarily covered. Some of the servants turned their heads and blocked their mouths that were about to burst with their hands, while the clerks were all stunned. "Montanus face". Record everything that Nicole said just now truthfully.

"What are you going to do, good girl?" The high priest lowered his head, full of frustration, "It's my fault. Maybe I should have disobeyed your mother's wishes last time instead of accommodating her and leading you away. You returned to Rome to raise yourself, and now you have become a wild girl, and you even arranged a marriage for yourself against ethics..."

"Papa! I'm not a wild girl. The wildness in your eyes is just that I didn't follow the Latin or Greek rituals." Nicole's hair was flying, and she put her hands in front of her chest, clearly interrupting her father's accusation. , "But I am who I am. I am both your daughter and Nicole. Every woman in the Amazon can be responsible for her own choices and does not need anyone to tell her what to do. Yes, a few years ago, I hoped to be with you. Once I go to Rome, I will see how my brother and sister live, but now I can’t go back. The wilderness, dense forests and mountains have molded my soul. I would rather spend this time riding a horse. I will spend my whole life with Ossetinius, and I will never envy Corinna's life. Hers and I are equal, both created by your flesh and blood, but our paths are different. That’s all, but I hope to get your approval.”

"Approval...Yes, of course I approve of you, my good daughter." At this time, the high priest's mood fell silent. He felt that his behavior just now was very similar to what Crassus had done when he forced himself and Poti. , could it be that now that he is older, he is beginning to follow the path of Crassus? No, no, Nicole is my lovely daughter. I am the only one who owes her, so just let her go. As Adiana said before, "Some people can go to New Zealand when everything ends." In this world, being with old love is the happiest.”

Finally, the high priest raised his eyes and looked at his daughter gently, "Well, I hope to see you and your wife from time to time, and the future children - I hope the child's appearance can inherit yours. Leo's son, who is also my grandson, has come into this world. His name is Silanus - so I will still give you and your wife a quarter of the annual output of 200,000, no, 500,000 dinars. In addition, I hope Helen Putina can come back soon. I hope she can be safe. Even if she doesn't come to see me, it's enough for me to get this message."

"Papa!" Nicole was embraced by her father again, and the high priest stroked her hair again and again.

Osetinius, who was deeply moved, also shed tears, opened his arms, and walked towards the two. At this time, Lepidus turned his back to his daughter and glared at him fiercely, then quietly raised his hand to indicate that he was not allowed to approach this son-in-law, "Get away!"

In the black stream under Mount Amasinus, countless sparks suddenly floated across. Under the scattered stars, Nicole took the lead, shaking a torch in her hand, and the shadows of the horse and the man leaped across the water illuminated by the fire.

Behind her was her husband, riding a short and weak mare.

Further behind, there were hundreds of thousands of Roman infantry and cavalry, marching in a mighty force, with torches illuminating the entire river and mountain peaks, heading towards the direction of the Euphrates River. (~^~)
