And just when Zhou Ye was planning to take Lucquis away from Anguila to Rome...

Far away in Rome...something is going on too.

In Caesar's residence, he is entertaining an uninvited guest.

"Haha... Pompey, my friend... what made you come to me?" Caesar smiled, and opened his arms to Pompey in front of him, as if he was going to hug him.

"It's the news of Crassus' death!!" After hugging Caesar with a smile, Pompey said, "At the meeting of the Senate, why did you vote for the trial of Lucius??"

"And why are you proposing to try Lucquis??"

Hearing Pompey's words, Caesar shrugged his shoulders and asked back: "You and I both know that Lucius is a hero... a hero who traversed the Persian Empire and brought the soldiers back...then why do you still To propose to judge him??"

Pompey looked at Caesar, but didn't speak for a long time...

After a while...he said slowly: "Yes, Lucius is a hero... But neither you nor I hope that there will be another shit-stirring stick like Crassus in the Council of Elders..."

"How can you say that about Crassus...he is our friend..." Although Caesar was accusing, there was a hint of a smile on his face.

"friend??"

"That's right, he is very generous... Whenever I was short of money, he was always very generous to lend me money..."

"Hehe...is that so?" Pompey laughed mockingly when he heard Caesar's words: "Then, on the stipulated repayment day, he came to your house with great fanfare to demand the debt, which made you lose all face... This is you So-called friends??"

"Okay, okay...Although he is a bit stingy sometimes...But, when he was alive, we all got along very happily!!" Caesar shrugged and said.

"You also said... that was when he was alive!!" Pompey caught a word from Caesar's mouth... "You and I both know that in the eastern province of the empire, Crassus still has 200,000 troops... And these 200,000 troops are the biggest legacy he left behind..."

"This is wrong..." Caesar spread his hands and said with a saintly look: "We shouldn't seek the assets of our own seniors... You know, Crassus' youngest son, Pulis is still alive...he is Crassus' rightful successor..."

"Then let him die..." Pompey said unceremoniously: "Rome doesn't need three consuls... let alone a blind child to be the commander of an army of hundreds of thousands. would make Rome the laughing stock of other nations..."

"Have you made up your mind? Pompey... are you serious??" The smile on Caesar's face gradually faded. "are you serious??"

"That's right, I'm serious..." Pompey nodded vigorously...and said.

"So, what can I get??" Caesar asked back.

"Crasu's inheritance, we are half, and - I will marry your daughter, Yulia..."

Pompey's next words almost made Caesar spray his face with a mouthful of salt soda...

Not to mention the collection of Crassus's inheritance, but also to marry his daughter, Yulia...you know, his daughter Yulia is only fourteen...

If it wasn't for this time, Pompey was more powerful than him, and Caesar would have turned his back on him long ago...

You know, Pompey is six years older than him...to marry his daughter shamelessly...Is this revenge for him playing with his wife? ? ?

"Are you serious??" Caesar asked again.

"Of course...I'm serious!!" There was a smile on Pompey's face, but his eyes were fixed on Caesar... as if he wanted to see through everything about him. "In this way, we can become close allies... Do you have any objections to this?"

"..." A smile gradually appeared on Caesar's expressionless face... "Of course, Pompey, my friend... How could I have any objections to this good thing??"

"That's good..." The smile on Pompey's face gradually spread... "How about just these few days?? I can't wait to call your father-in-law..."

"No, I think... Crassus is our friend after all, and it's better for us not to do such a thing when the affairs behind him have not been properly resolved!!" Caesar said: "It's easy to be rejected by the Council of Elders." Those nobles who question our character..."

"Well——" Pompey thought about it, and after thinking about it, it seemed that Caesar was right. Once Crassus, one of the original three giants, died, the two would marry, which seemed a bit too eager... Besides, He also understood what Caesar meant... He wanted to marry his daughter to Crassus only after he obtained the ownership of half of Crassus's corps... This is a typical example.

"Then...it's settled..." Pompey said with a smile.

"Of course... Now, shouldn't we have a drink for our new alliance?" Caesar laughed.

"Hahaha...that's right, it's time for a drink!!"

The two old foxes just said things that no one would believe in face to face, pretending to be hello or me, and they were playing with each other there...

And all of this was overheard by a passing maid...

She didn't dare to say anything, and walked past with her usual expression, until she could no longer see the figures of the two old foxes, then hurried towards the garden...

At this time, in the garden, Caesar's eldest daughter, Yulia, was painting in the garden with her art teacher...

"Miss……"

The flustered look on the maidservant's face made Yulia a little curious... "Lukia, what's wrong with you?"

"Miss..." The maid just wanted to speak, but when she saw the art teacher not far from Yulia, she immediately closed her mouth... She didn't know if what she said would be recognized Pass it to her master, Caesar... In that case, she will be in trouble.

Seemingly seeing something wrong with her maid, Yulia said to her art teacher, "I'm sorry teacher, I'm a little tired today, let's stop here for now!!"

"Okay, Miss Yulia!!" The art teacher was obviously more happy about being able to leave get out of class early... Anyway, the salary remains the same and the work can be reduced. How good is it? ?

Soon, the art teacher packed up his paintbrush, canvas and other things, and left the garden... Only Yulia and her maid Lukia were left in the garden...

"What happened? Lukia?" Yulia asked...
