Roman Slave Owner

He likes to moisturize things in a silent way, but not in a stormy way.

In the words of later generations, it is called - stability trumps everything.

Caesar walked home holding the sword presented by Levi as if he were holding a rare treasure.

The people of Rome all knew that he was a real playboy, but how could they know the ambition hidden deep in his heart.

He also longed to make great achievements and prosper the Caesar family.

Originally, he thought that he would become an ordinary consul at most, but he did not expect that Li Wei actually gave him this sword as a gift.

You must know that the people who owned this kind of sword were famous generals such as Sulla, Pompey and Sertorius. Even the worst Sertorius was famous all over Rome and made the Roman army miserable. This completely aroused Caesar's ambition.

It’s just that he felt that something was wrong with what Levi said today. What he said about obscuring everyone must be false. How could he, Caesar, oblivious to everyone?

He, Caesar, will surely shine brightly and become the greatest consul in the history of Rome.

Thinking of this, Caesar's lips showed a confident smile.

After returning home, he found that Aetius was at his home, and his mother Aurelia was entertaining him warmly.

At this time, Aurelia was already in her fifties. Although she was well-maintained, there were still some crow's feet on the corners of her eyebrows.

Cornelia was not present here due to illness.

"Aetius, why are you here?"

Caesar asked with a smile.

"I have something to talk to you about."

Aetius looked worried and his face was a little serious.

"What's up?"

Caesar asked with a smile, and after speaking, he seemingly casually placed the dagger on the table.

Aetius was about to speak, but his expression changed slightly when he saw the dagger.

"This sword looks so familiar."

"Of course, it is the same style as Pompey's sword. This kind of sword is only owned by Sulla, Pompey and Sertorius."

Caesar said proudly.

"Venus, this is not true, is it? Is this that kind of short sword?"

Alleria said with a shocked look on her face.

"That's right, it's the kind of dagger that is only given to famous generals. His Majesty the Pope personally gave it to me in front of Bellius and Getta. He personally said that I have the potential to surpass Pompey. You don’t know how wonderful the faces of Geta and the others were at that time..."

Caesar said with joy.

"This is simply wonderful. We must have a banquet to celebrate today. I want all Romans to know that my son Caesar has been personally recognized by the Pope."

Alleria immediately became excited.

As a noble, she certainly knew how much benefit this matter could bring to Caesar.

After Sertorius was killed by his men, the sword finally fell into the hands of Pompey. Pompey regarded it as the most precious trophy and no one was allowed to touch it.

Sulla's sword was also treasured by his descendants. It is said that the king offered five million dinars to buy it, but was still rejected.

The significance of this sword has far exceeded its own value.

It represents an identity and the affirmation that Levi is even the true God.

It is said that Crassus had been secretly begging for this kind of sword but could not get it. As long as people know that Caesar owns this kind of sword, many people will regard him as a figure on the same level as Sulla, Pompey, and Sertorius, and they will treat Livy The benefits of career advancement are simply indescribable.

Caesar looked at his excited mother and felt very pleased.

But when I saw Aetius, I found that there was shock, envy, and doubt in his eyes, but there was no joy.

"Aetius, what's wrong with you? Aren't you happy for me?"

Caesar said with a smile.

Aetius looked at him with a complicated expression. He seemed to understand why Livi wanted to place himself next to Caesar.

Perhaps Caesar is far greater than he imagined, so it is worthy of Levi to place himself next to him before he has grown up.

The power of the true God is indeed incredible.

"I think your banquet probably doesn't need to be held."

Aetius said.

"What do you mean? You must be jealous."

Caesar slapped him hard on the shoulder and said.

Although Aetius made him very unhappy, based on his understanding of Aetius, he was by no means that kind of villain.

Alleria also looked at him in confusion, hoping that Aetius could give an explanation.

"Caesar, did you secretly tell Crassus something they shouldn't have said?"

Aetius said with a serious face.

Caesar's expression changed drastically, but he quickly managed to hold on and said, "This... I don't understand what you are talking about."

"You know, Menmuse was caught in a port when he was escaping. He confessed many things, including you."

Aetius said.

Caesar's face couldn't help but turn pale, this can't be done! This is absolutely impossible! !

"Aetius, have you heard any rumors? You know what Caesar is like. He is a good boy. He just likes to play with girls. It is inevitable that he will offend some people."

Alleria said anxiously.

Although she didn't know exactly what Caesar had done, she knew the seriousness of the matter just by listening to it.

Not long ago, Brutium began to carry out a great purge in Rome. Although many nobles hid early, many others were found by him and were eventually crucified. It was almost the time when Sulla entered the city. Repeat.

She has experienced too much massacre in her life, and she never wants to see her children involved in these things.

Aetius almost smiled bitterly, Caesar liked to play with some girls?

As far as he knew, he had seduced the wives of many senators. He didn't know how many senators hated Caesar. After knowing this, they would definitely add insult to injury and kill him.

"Let me tell you the truth, Servilia has been captured and she probably won't survive. This is a warrant issued by His Majesty the Pope to you, ordering you to leave Rome within a time limit and go to Asia."

Aetius said, and after that he took out a warrant from Levi.

Caesar took it tremblingly, and looking at Levi's familiar handwriting and seal, he knew that it was probably true.

"I'm going to see the Pope. Someone is slandering me about this."

Caesar said.

He and Crassus only met once, and everything else was conveyed through Servilia. That woman Servilia would definitely not let go, and maybe there was room for things to change.

"It's up to you. Do you want me to go with you?"

Aetius said with a sigh.

"No, I'll go alone."

Caesar looked at him with a complicated expression and said.

After saying that, he led a horse and galloped directly towards the Vatican, leaving only Aurelia who was extremely frightened.

"Aetius, this is not true."

Alleria said nervously.

Aetius sighed, what could he say?

Caesar arrived at the Vatican almost as fast as he could, and he didn't know when the sky, which had been clear just now, changed.

The sky was covered with clouds and there were bursts of thunder.

The door of the Vatican was closed. Caesar walked to the door and said loudly: "I am Senator Caesar, and I want to see His Majesty the Pope."

The door opened quickly, and several soldiers welcomed him in as usual.

"Wait a moment, we will report it right away."

This made Caesar relieved. Maybe it was not true. Aetius just heard some messages. Caesar tried desperately to convince himself.

Not long after, Severio came over with a few guards with an indifferent expression.

After seeing him, Caesar quickly stood up with a smile on his face. Severio was a popular person around Li Wei, and even he had to respect him.

Severio looked at Caesar with extremely cold eyes, as if he were looking at garbage, which made Caesar feel guilty.

"His Majesty the Pope does not want to see you. He is very disappointed in you. He hopes that you will take your family and leave Rome as soon as possible. He will never show mercy when he sees you next time."

Severio said coldly.

"I was unjustly accused! I am loyal to His Majesty the Pope!! I definitely did not betray His Majesty the Pope!!"

Caesar said excitedly.

"That's enough! You can't pretend anymore! Your hypocrisy is disgusting! If you keep talking like this, I will kill you even if you disobey Your Majesty's orders."

Severio said angrily.

Caesar's face froze, his lips moved, and finally he said nothing, and then left here dejectedly.

In a high tower, Levi could only sigh softly as he looked at Caesar's lonely back.

What a twist of fate!

The next morning, all the senators gathered together in the Hostilia synagogue, and they burst into laughter and laughter.

After putting down the Catiline Rebellion, Livi basically replaced all the senators.

His retainers all became senators as long as they lived.

Even many disciples have joined in, and the Senate has completely become his one voice.

For example, Memmius is talking excitedly to Annius in his loud voice. He is attending a Senate meeting for the first time and he has no idea how to express his excitement.

Livy, wearing a crown and holding a scepter in his hand, sat alone on the familiar ivory seat.

Saverio and three other strong guards stood beside him like loyal guards. Caesar's lesson must be learned. Livi did not want to be assassinated by several senators one day.

But there was no Pompeo next to him, which made Li Wei sigh.

At this time, Brutim said a few words to a person outside, and then came over.

"Your Majesty, Caesar and the others are leaving today. I heard that his mother fainted from anger yesterday and slapped him hard when she woke up."

Brutim whispered.

"Yeah."

Levi said calmly.

"It's just that I don't understand why we let him go. You know he betrayed us."

Brutim said angrily.

He didn't expect that Caesar had slipped through the net. If he had known about it earlier, he would have sent their whole family to the cross.

"It would be meaningless if you kill some people like this. I would rather defeat him on the battlefield together with Pompey and Crassus."

Levi shook his head and said.

Brutim asked Levi with some doubts, is Caesar so valuable?

"Work hard, I will have a more important task for you soon."

Levi said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I will definitely serve Your Majesty and the Holy Cult wholeheartedly."

Brutim immediately said excitedly.

Ever since he was promoted to the Senate, he knew he had done the right thing.

Although his reputation in Rome was not good, Li Wei rewarded him, but it seemed that the rewards were not over yet.

Levi nodded, and then Brutim was about to retreat.

At this time, a fair-skinned middle-aged man walked over excitedly.

A faint smile appeared on Li Wei's face. This man was Cato the Younger, who had recently gained fame and was famous for his integrity. Two Guardsmen quickly stepped forward to stop him.

"Stop!"

Cato looked at Livi angrily and said angrily: "Livi, Rome never allows guards to enter the Senate."

"It is indeed not allowed, but it will be possible from today on."

Levi smiled and said, "What are you doing here?"

"Why did you send someone to arrest Servilia? I hope you sent someone to release her."

Little Cato said.

"She is suspected of colluding with Catiline to commit rebellion. The evidence is conclusive and she will soon be sentenced to death. Besides her, there is also you, the respected elder Cato."

A cruel smile appeared on Brutim's face, as if he had seen the scene of little Cato being crucified.

This made little Cato shudder, but he quickly said angrily: "You are slandering, there is no way she would do such a thing."

"I trust his judgment, little Cato."

Levi said calmly.

Cato was a staunch republican in his last life, and he should be no exception in this life.

Hearing this, little Cato looked panicked.

If Livy insists on killing Servilia, then almost no one can save her.

"But I can spare you and your sister a life. You can take her to find Pompey and Crassus. We will see you on the battlefield in the future."

Levi said.

"Are you... willing to let us go?"

Little Cato said with a surprised look on his face.

"Yes, in my eyes, you are just a bunch of scum."

Levi said that in front of the time-travelers who were crazy about using golden fingers, even the three giants combined would not be his opponent. Levi always believed in this.

Little Cato's face immediately turned red, he was simply arrogant! arrogant!

"Now tell me your choice."

Levi glanced at him lightly.

"I...leave now."

"Very well, you can keep Caesar company on the road. He also betrayed me and told Crassus my information."

Levi said.

Little Cato snorted. He knew about this because he had been involved in it.

After seeing little Cato leaving, Brutim glanced at Levi sadly.

Why did he let so many enemies go?

Not long after, seeing that the senator was almost here, Li Wei tapped the scepter in his hand lightly on the ground a few times.

"Silence! Everyone, please return to your seats. The meeting is about to be held."

Levi said loudly.

Upon hearing this, the Senate immediately became silent.
