"Oh, not bad wine!!" Zhou Ye picked up the wine glass, tasted it lightly, and said with a smile: "Now, it's time for us to give this General Marcus an explanation!!"

"Okay, Your Majesty!!" Lucius said, turning his head to look at Marcus, and said slowly: "Marcus, as you know, I followed my lord last year... Mr. Crassus, go to the Parthian Empire... It is clear that we are going to attack the Parthian Empire, but in fact..."

Following what Lucius said, Marcus couldn't help but widen his eyes in surprise...

Fuck, this is simply an epic death plan...

Moreover, Crassus killed himself as soon as he did it...

As expected of Mr. Crassus who is known as the Big Three...

You know, although Crassus, Caesar and Pompey formed the three giants of the Roman Empire, in fact, Crassus has the most troops...

However----

Although Crassus has the most troops, he has the least military exploits.

This is also Crassus' heart disease... That's why, after he was elected consul with Pompey, he couldn't wait to dispatch troops to rest the empire.

That is to say - this guy is obviously going to negotiate peace with the Parthian Empire, but in fact, he is still plotting against the Parthian Empire.

In the end, I didn't expect that he was actually killed by his own son... This really made Marcus sigh... The conspirators must die under the conspiracy in the end, it is true.

"Well, I have almost understood what happened..." After listening to the story, Marcus looked at Zhou Ye... and said with some hesitation: "Can you... oh, no... Please crown me Have you accepted your divine power?? After all, we are not enemies..."

"No, Marcus!!"

Before Zhou Ye could speak, Lu Kuis spoke first...

He looked at Marcus and said with fanaticism: "Marcus... don't you think that the current noble senate is decayed? All the senators have indulged in luxury enjoyment, and they have already No longer fit to lead our great Roman Empire to a brighter tomorrow..."

Hearing Lucius' words, Marcus' eyes narrowed immediately... "Luques... what do you want to do!!"

"I don't want to do anything!!" Lucius said loudly, "I just want to be guided by Your Majesty!! Lead the Roman Empire to a more glorious future—"

Having said this, Lucuis bowed his head deeply towards Zhou Ye...

"You're crazy...Luquese, you're absolutely crazy..." Marcus felt that Lucquise had become so strange at this moment...

If the previous Lucquis gave people a reckless yet cheerful feeling, then the current Lucquis gives Marcus the feeling-a fanatic who has completely lost his mind... and, He actually believed in an oriental man...

This shit... can you believe it? ?

"I'm not crazy...Marcus!!" Lucius raised his head, walked in front of Marcus with a calm expression, looked into Marcus' eyes, and said word by word: "Now—— Make your choice, either join us and fight for a new and vibrant Rome, or - become our enemy and be crushed by the wheel of history!"

"You, you..." For a moment, Marcus didn't know how to answer Lucius...

At this time, Zhou Ye had already finished the wine in his glass, and he stood up with a smile. "Luquez..."

"Your Majesty!!" Hearing Zhou Ye's words, Lucius hurriedly looked at Zhou Ye respectfully...

"You can't persuade like this!!" Zhou Ye said, walking in front of Marcus, looking him up and down...

This is a young man in his thirties who looks much younger than Lucius. At this age, he can become the sole commander of the legion... Obviously Marcus's background should not be low... Then...

"Are you willing to go through it step by step like this?" Zhou Ye asked with a smile: "If this continues, even if you reach your father's age, you will not be able to become a governor of a province like him... Are you willing? ??"

"I..." Marcus felt that under Zhou Ye's star-like eyes, everything he had was invisible.

"You were born in a noble family... under the influence of your father, you have a keen talent for politics..."

"However, you did not follow your father's old path, nor did you follow your father's arrangement to learn from the great orator Neos, but chose to serve in the army..."

"You stubbornly believe that the so-called orator's eloquence is nothing more than a chicken and a dog in the face of a sword..."

"However, the reality has hit you with bruises..."

"The entire Senate is controlled by those so-called political aristocrats who can only talk empty words... military aristocrats like you are useless!!"

"Are you feeling unwilling??"

"The devil...you are the devil..." Marcus shouted in horror...

Every word Zhou Ye said, every sentence, hit his heart heavily... As a nobleman, how could Marcus be willing to be kicked to a legion commander in Asia Minor, far away from the political center of Rome? ? But - there is no way... Facing the suppression of the Senate, he has nothing to do...

He always thought that he had already accepted his fate...

However, following Zhou Ye's words, he felt the strong unwillingness and dissatisfaction in his heart never disappeared... It's just that they were hidden very deeply...

"Hehe..." Zhou Ye reached out and stopped Lucius, who wanted to beat Marcus violently... and said with a smile, "Whether it's a devil or a god...the devil is just a devil because he can lure people to fall, And the gods are only gods because——they will treat their believers kindly, but...does there really such a god??"

"..." Hearing Zhou Ye's words, Marcus fell silent for a moment...

"It doesn't matter if it's a devil or a god...as long as it can satisfy your desire in your heart and fulfill your dreams...then...he is your god...do you agree with these words??"

Facing Zhou Ye's question, after a long silence - Marcus said with difficulty: "I... agree!!"

"I'm right here, right in front of you... Believe in me, you can get everything you want..." Zhou Ye said here, looking straight at Marcus... "——what are you waiting for ??"

Marcus seemed to be in a daze, and in his mind—desires and the empire's system were constantly clashing...

A moment later——he knelt down respectfully, and piously put on Zhou Ye's boots, "I would like to serve you forever, Your Majesty... I only hope that you, who are kind, can fulfill my wish!!"

"Of course... I have always been very generous to my followers!!" Zhou Ye smiled, very happily...
