"Do, utdes (I give it to you so that you can give it to me)." - The ancient Romans' view of God's contract

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

"I should, I can roughly guess what you want." Caesar couldn't help but laugh.

"Yes, I want all my former subordinates, Milu, Tagus, Pope, and Little Hortensius, no matter which legion they are serving in now or what position they hold, they will all come to Illyria Ten in Milan immediately. Second Corps, accept my leadership because I lack backbone.”

"The Thyme Legion you left in Lusitania has more than a thousand people, enough to serve as the backbone." Caesar dragged out the last sentence for a long time.

"Not enough. They are all newly recruited freed slaves in Sardinia. Their service period is only a few years. I need experienced and qualified officers. As long as you agree, I will return to Rome immediately. No need. Dining will not only help you drive Cicero out of the city, but also take Cato with you."

Caesar smacked his lips and said yes, do you need me to solemnly swear in front of the statue of Venus?

Lepidus said no, I will go back now. After saying that, he swallowed the dried figs. With some thoughts, he waved his hands to greet others, and then rode alone in the opposite direction of the queue.

Lepidus, who entered the city, went directly to Claudius's residence and took out the decree that Caesar had intentionally signed before he resigned as consul. Claudius took it and took a look at it and whispered, why are you still taking this out now? Didn’t you follow Caesar to Gaul before? As he said this, the former mistress Claudia came out with a glowing face and greeted the dusty Lepidus attentively. However, Lepidus was obviously not in much mood to talk to her now. Instead, he pulled Claudius and said: "Government Your Excellency has long expected that Cicero will renege on his word, so he signed the bill you proposed in the National Assembly in advance and is waiting to take it out now - Cicero fully thought that Caesar was coming and found Pompey. If you have a backer, you can’t do anything to him.”

Claudius frowned and looked at the wall next door. He and Cicero had always been neighbors. Even though they had fallen out with each other many times before, Cicero and his wife did not move out because they loved this house so much, but said Speaking of Pompey, Claudius still hesitated, "Now that Caesar is indeed gone, and many people in the city are Pompey's cronies, it may be a bit difficult to drive Cicero away now."

As a result, before Lepidus could say anything, his sister became sarcastic and excited, "Brother, I really misjudged you. Haven't you seen the power of the people during this period? Yes, it is what Lepidus said before, the power of the people." The power is so majestic and amazing. As long as you want to touch Princia, you can shout a few slogans, and thousands of people will even destroy the court for you. You know what he got back then. Isn't it because of winning the favor of the people that you are fighting for power?" After saying that, Claudia stepped forward, raised her head, and caressed her brother Junmei carefully in front of Lepidus. Of course, she had become mature because of the experience of the past two years. With a smile on his face, he said with further encouragement, "You will also be a consul in the future. Remember, this is the fate of our family. The Claudius family has produced nine consuls in the past years, so boldly Do it and listen to Lepidus' plans and suggestions. He is a person who can help you rise to the top. Didn't he help Caesar pay off his debts and dominate the political arena? Listen, you are already established now. Don't stay by your sister's side all the time. The little goat with the bell.”

After hearing his sister's words, Claudius's chest immediately filled with infinite anger and courage. His eyes burned, and in front of Lepidus, he pecked his sister's lips fiercely, and immediately Lepidus and Some of the personal servants in the family watched with a bit of embarrassment as both siblings stuck out their tongues, sucking and biting each other with their body fluids mixed in. This was probably the family's special way of expressing family affection, and they can only understand it this way now.

After expressing his family affection, Claudius was full of pride and promised Lepidus that he would immediately reiterate the resolution in the people's assembly and take out the signed edict of the previous consul, "Cicero is over for good!"

Claudius was a man who made up his mind quickly. As expected, Lepidus, who stayed in the courtyard of Claudius's family the next day, heard the roars of the crowds coming from the Grand Place and the Grand Circuit, and Claudius Diya sent out a famous maid in surprise, and soon the maid came back with the same surprised expression and reported:

The people were immediately organized under the mobilization of Master Claudius, especially those who had previously admired Catiline, who voluntarily acted as guides and agitators free of charge. There were four to five thousand people, holding the banners of the former consul and patron. The document jointly signed by the civilian officials claimed that Cicero was a murderer who killed citizens wantonly without trial, and must be tried by the Centurion or the Tribune. Now the team was fierce and had almost reached the foot of the Palatine Mountain. There were many people along the way. people join.

When the former mistress sat on the couch next to her and looked at him with a proud look, Lepidus responded with the same satisfied gesture and said that she would immediately invite her to watch Cicero's performance. As a result, Claudia's Her eyes became even more fiery, and she said quietly: "Do you want to know why I have a grudge against Cicero? That ugly man with the scar on his nose actually wrote to me privately the year he became consul. , Let me be his lover, what a ridiculous, sad and shameful thing." After saying that, Claudia deliberately exposed half of her round, plump and white arms, gently put them on Lepida's feet, and squeezed them gently. .....

"But how could I fall in love with that kind of man, Lepidus? No, you will always be Calabis in my eyes, that clever, understanding, and masculine little hero. There is a rumor in Rome that I am a casual person." A woman who just climbs into bed with anyone casually, but I am not like that. You have been by my side for so many years, so you should know me well. It is true that I may just casually do that a few times, but from the bottom of my heart, I still admire handsome and handsome men. , He must be as perfect as a sculpture." As he spoke, the former mistress's hand came up and touched Le Bida's key parts, "Yes, that's right, I don't want to be your brother's substitute." Le Bida. Knowing that provoking this woman would be the most troublesome in Rome, he had indeed introduced Claudia before, but to whom? Of course Caesar.

But after Caesar heard about Claudia's name, he just used silence to express his rejection. Although Caesar had been inseparable from women for half his life, he also knew that those women could maintain long-term lovers, such as Seville, And some women will only drag down their reputations, just like this Claudia.

A woman who clearly distinguishes between inside and outside will always be more popular than a woman with a bad reputation.

But now this Claudia, the former mistress, not only has her arms, but also her breasts attached! (To be continued.)
