Roman Slave Owner

"support."

Dorabella said.

"Very well, Elder Catullus, what's your opinion?"

"support."

Elder Catullus laughed.

"..."

One elder after another was questioned, and their answers were neat and tidy, which made many people feel bad.

If things go on like this, the two issues may be passed today.

Some veterans exchanged glances, and they, who were old and cunning, quickly understood what each other meant.

So one of the veterans started to talk freely, completely ignoring Li Wei's suggestion that it should not exceed 5 minutes.

Li Wei looked at him with a sneer on his face, Xiao Mian, and playing tricks with me.

"Old man, you have exceeded 5 minutes, you can stop."

Li Wei said lightly.

The senator ignored him and continued his speech.

"Guard, pull him down. But don't throw him out of the Senate, I mercifully allow him to vote next."

Li Wei said with a smile.

"I protest! I strongly protest! He has the right to express his opinion! You cannot take away this right!!"

At this moment a senator protested loudly, and he left his place and came to the middle of the synagogue.

"Return to your seat, my senator."

Levi said.

"I refuse! I protest! All the senators should rise up and protest against Levi's tyranny!"

The elder continued to speak loudly.

Some elders were ready to move, but they quickly calmed down when they thought of what happened yesterday.

Li Wei sneered: "Guard, pull him down, cover his mouth, and don't let him speak. But don't drive him out, he will be needed for voting later."

Soon guards stepped forward and dragged the two elders down. At the same time, gag their mouths with a cloth to keep them from speaking.

They struggled desperately, but to no avail.

"I recommend that they be thrown out because they disrupted the order of the meeting."

Pompeo said.

"Do you want to get half of the number of people in a while? Now we only have more than 300 veterans."

Li Wei looked into Pompey's eyes and said.

Pompeo blinked, "Well, if that's the case, forget it."

Li Wei sneered, unexpectedly Pompey started playing tricks.

The helplessness on the faces of those veterans was unexpectedly discovered by Li Wei again.

A veteran spoke, and then quickly entered the voting session.

"Now I announce that, with 250 people in favor and 96 people against, a public meeting will be held within the next market day without divination."

Levi said loudly.

Those elders looked sad, but they didn't expect to be achieved by Li Wei in the end.

Next came the second proposal. Many elders reacted fiercely to this proposal, but due to their small number, this proposal was still strongly passed.

It was already dark at this time, and a faint smile appeared on Li Wei's face. Many elders were in mourning, and today's defeat was really terrible, and they refused to accept it.

"Okay, now let's adjourn the meeting,"

Levi said.

"Tuskus, you come with us to the house of Elder Metellus,"

At this time, an elder grabbed Tuscus who was about to leave.

"If you didn't tell me, I'd have forgotten. Elder Metellus must have been waiting impatiently."

Tuscus smiled and said, Pompey walked towards Tuscus with a sullen face, surrounded by many elders, as if escorting the prisoner.

They knew that tonight was Metellus' last chance. Once the Elder Citizens Assembly was officially held tomorrow, Metellus would be dead.

"Let's go too."

What Li Wei said to Cicero and the others, Cicero and others hurriedly followed, and at the same time walked in front of Tuscus intentionally or unintentionally.

As soon as he walked out of the entrance of the hall, he found a slave waiting here with an anxious expression on his face. He couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw Tuscus.

"Master, something is wrong. Madam just made an old mistake again.

The doctor said that the condition was very serious, and it was probably hopeless. "

"What did you say? This...it's impossible. Madame..."

Tuskus was so shocked that he rolled his eyes and passed out.

Seeing this, many elders were dumbfounded. Elder Metellus is still waiting for you to save him, why did you faint.

Cicero and others hurriedly surrounded him, checking his breath.

"Elder Tuscus, what's wrong with you?"

"Doctor, call the doctor quickly, Elder Tuskus' illness has relapsed."

"..."

Seeing Cicero and the others in a hurry, Pompey and the others were trembling with anger.

They had known for a long time that Li Wei would not give in easily, but they did not expect to resort to such a shameless trick of pretending to be stunned.

"Cough... Cough... Elder Tuskus' health has never been very good. He seems to have a heart problem and high blood pressure. Let's take him to the doctor as soon as possible, otherwise something serious will happen."

Li Wei coughed twice, then said with a serious face.

All the elders looked at Li Wei angrily, do you dare to be ashamed again?

Cicero and the others quickly agreed, and then they were about to carry Tuscus away, but some elders stopped them quickly.

"Seniors, Elder Metellus doesn't have much time. I think it's better to carry Tuscus to the mansion of Elder Metellus and find someone to treat him there."

Said an elder.

"This veteran doesn't know something. The condition of the elder Tuskus is very complicated. His illness is likely to cause various complications, such as cerebral hemorrhage, hyperlipidemia, etc., and it is not allowed to be lifted randomly. I think it is better to carry it Seek immediate treatment at the nearest hospital."

Levi said.

"How did you know?"

The elder said unconvinced.

Li Wei chuckled and didn't answer, but the other elders picked up the conversation.

"Consul Livi is our great philosopher in Rome, and his words will be wrong."

"Capua Academy is the place where we have the best medical skills in Rome. Who dares to question the vision of Consul Li Wei."

"..."

Hearing the robbing of those elders, the elder couldn't help but patted his head, how could he forget this.

Some veterans were still unwilling to give up and wanted to go forward to snatch him, but it was Geta and their opponents who managed to snatch Tuskus over in the end, and then carried him to the nearest medical hall.

Li Wei even ordered that the medical center be surrounded by heavy soldiers, so that other elders should not be disturbed.

As long as it's the next day, then it's a big deal.

Seeing this, the elders gritted their teeth with hatred, and some even cursed, but there was nothing they could do.

After seeing them leave, Li Wei fell into deep thought.

Maybe Metellus will play some monster moths tomorrow, and he should send Lucias there.

***

***

In a villa on the Palatine Hill, seeing the sky getting darker and darker, Metellus was very anxious.

He knew that as time passed, the chances of him going into exile became less and less likely.

What the hell happened to the Senate? Why hasn't Tuskus come to his house until now.

He who has been in business for a long time knows that there is probably something wrong.

"Father, is it because Li Wei is playing tricks, so Tuscus won't come?"

Kyle asked anxiously.

"What you said is very, very possible, now there is only..."

Having said that, Metellus let out a long sigh.

If I had known today, why insisted on confronting Li Wei.

"Are we going to die tomorrow? What can we do?"

Kyle said in horror.

"Hahaha, I told you a long time ago that Li Wei won't let you go, and you still don't believe me."

Napos said with a laugh.

Now he smelled of alcohol all over his body, as if he had been soaked in a wine jar.

If Metellus and Keller still had a slight chance of surviving, then his chance of surviving was zero.

Therefore, he completely let go. Instead of being crucified tomorrow, it would be better to drink to death.

Metellus gave him a bitter look, and finally said nothing, so he was still angry with him at this time.

"Master, Consul Pompey and several elders are here."

At this time, a slave ran over and said.

"It's really nice."

Metellus said with a look of surprise, and then he and Keiler went to greet him in person.

Soon they found that Pompey and several elders came in, and what worried them was that Tuscus was not found.

"Didn't Tuskus... come?"

Metellus said tremblingly.

He knew that his own life depended on Tuskus. If the judge encountered a high-ranking official during the trial, he should have asked him many times whether he wanted to be exiled.

Tuskus indeed asked many times, but he refused.

Now he desperately wants to see Tuskus once, as long as it is only once, otherwise he will not be able to self-exile at all.

"Li Wei and the others are playing tricks, saying that Tuskus' family members fell ill, and as a result Tuskus passed out directly, saying that they won't let us carry him over."

An elder said angrily.

Hearing this, Metellus felt dizzy, how could this be?

How could they be exiled without the permission of the justice.

"We kept someone there. As long as he wakes up, even if he is tied up, we will tie him up."

Pompey comforted.

Of course he knew that these were really just comforting words, because even if he was tied up, he wouldn't be able to go away.

"It's over, it's over. Li Wei, you bastard, I swear against you."

Keller started crying, his whole body almost collapsed, and tears and snot flowed out together.

"Is there...is there no other way?"

At this time, a very beautiful lady said.

After seeing her, Pompey snorted coldly and turned his head to the side. This person was his former wife, Metellus' daughter Mucia.

"Yes, there is, and that is to find Justice Aquilinus or Justice Marchelus. As long as you find one at random, you can exile Elder Metellus and Elder Keller, but they are all missing. .”

Said an elder.

"Then send someone to look for it quickly."

Murcia said anxiously.

"But we have no idea where they fled to."

The old man said.

"It's all Li Wei's fault. He scared away countless elders, otherwise the elders of Metellus would never be in danger of their lives."

Someone said indignantly.

"You don't have to worry, I have already sent a large number of cavalry to look for them, maybe we can find them. So we must find a way to delay the time, as long as we can delay them back."

At this time Pompey said.

"That's wonderful, thank you, Pompeo."

Metellus said emotionally.

Even Keller and Murcia thanked them.

"It's nothing, it's what I should do."

Pompey said lightly that he really didn't want to talk to Mucia.

Afterwards, everyone discussed how to deal with it, but tried everything to delay the time.

Pompey sighed deeply, and sat down in a place with few people.

He still lost the game with Li Wei after all, and once the divination method is revised, Li Wei's power will increase even more.

Many elders will not dare to oppose Li Wei easily out of fear of the death penalty, so what to do.

The noisy night finally passed, and a round of fiery red sun rose from the east.

Metellus and the others finished their last meal in a heavy atmosphere. At this time, the sound of horns could be faintly heard from the city wall.

Everyone's faces were extremely ugly, and Keller almost collapsed on the chair. This was tantamount to the clarion call of death for their family.

"Everyone, don't worry, try your best to delay the time, maybe Aquilinus and Marchelus can get back in time."

Pompeo said.

"That's right, delaying time."

"Yes, it's just a drag word."

"..."

All the elders said one after another.

Metellus nodded. At this moment, he was completely hopeless towards the two of Achilinus.

At this moment, a melodious horn sounded outside the villa.

Since they are defendants, this is urging them to go to the town hall.

Metellus' eyes were red with anger, which was a great shame to the Metellus family.

Their family was the most powerful nobleman in Rome, and they did not expect to be humiliated like this.

Everyone was in no mood to talk, and not long after, a slave came to report.

"Report to the master, Lucias and the guards are knocking on the door outside, let us go to Mars Square."

"Don't worry about them, just close the door."

Pompeo said.

The slave didn't answer, but glanced at Metellus, and found that Metellus didn't say anything, so he retreated very tactfully.

But not long after, there was a sound of messy footsteps and noise outside, and Lucias rushed in with a large number of guards regardless of the obstruction of the slaves.

"Lucias, what do you mean? You actually broke into the mansion of the chief elder."

Pompey couldn't help shouting angrily.

Lucias smiled disdainfully, why did he break in?

He ignored Pompey, but said to Metellus: "Dear Senator, the time has come. It's time to go to the Citizens Assembly for trial, otherwise it would be bad to be misunderstood."

"Okay... I'll... let's go."

Metellus sighed and said that he was about to stand up after speaking, but he didn't stand up after standing up several times, and it was only with the help of others that he stood up.

"There are also Keiler, Napos, and Scipio Metellus. You must all be there. Today you will all be tried, and you will be at the forefront."

Lucias said with a smile, this meeting is hosted by Li Wei, so of course we have to make good arrangements for them.

Keller looked at him bitterly, "Don't be complacent, you will have this day sooner or later."

"Yeah, I don't think so."

Lucias spread his hands and said.
