Chapter 9 Surena (1)

"Don't marry a wife, you can save money in your family. A loyal official can manage your family business better than your wife." - "Canterbury Story Collection"

"Who are you?" Queen Eubertnia raised her proud chin and whispered to Li Bida, using Greek.

At this time, Li Bida suddenly heard the hillside there. The noble man's ear seemed to sway, and his eyes swept sharply at him and Adiana. At this time, Mathia behind the fence was arguing with the beauties in Greek, while Alp led the guard, shook hands with the copper tube of the golden eagle logo, and stood beside Li Bida.

Li Bida's eyes also turned quickly, but he was not looking at the noble son of Parthia, but Adiana. He clearly saw that the other party's face was full of pride, and that face was very familiar to him. This instead strangled his mania and calmed him down. He continued to shout to the queen in Greek: "I am Li Bidaus, the deputy general of the Syrian Expeditionary Force, representing the Syrian Governor's Office of the Roman Republic and the Senate declared war.

And the priests, I have eagle marks and sacrificial masks, so the Queen of Ubertnia, you did not come to Gerasha to pay homage to me as stipulated in the treaty, and provide the republic with the blood tribute. So I arrived here on horseback, and also gave you the choice of peace or war?" After saying that, Li Bida rode on the horse, full of rebellious and provocative expressions, only the sound of the wind passing the wings of the golden eagle behind him.

"What..." Adianna was a little surprised. She never expected that the bi-eared pot would react like this. Her original plan was to see the other party furious and furious.

But Libida did not talk about any other topics at all. He then repeated it in Greek, with the goal only facing the queen, and also put the horns of the robe in two groups, holding one in one hand, "I reiterate it again, which one you need for war or peace, which republic can give you, the only difference is in triumph. Are you an actor or an audience." This made Adiana tremble with anger. At this moment, the noble young man rushed over and said hurriedly to Libida in Persian language. Libida said contemptuously to his followers, "There is only one language in diplomacy in the Republic, that is Latin. Today I specifically spoke Greek. What a sad day, so let's just go! Everyone is good, translate the Persian words into Latin, or Greek, and I can condescend to have face-to-face communication with him."

A follower respectfully walked to the noble prince's horse and quickly exchanged a few words. The follower began a conversation with the Roman envoy, "My master is asking about your etiquette. According to the customs of the Persians, the queen is the master here. It is extremely impolite to roar at the master. What's more, a mistress who is as charming and noble as a flower."

After hearing this, Adianna was even more proud and energetic. However, when she saw Li Bida's expression, she had a standard poker face. If there were such entertainment toys in that era, she would immediately feel resentment and sorrow surge into her throat.

"Report your master's name, my identity just now, I guess you have heard it."

It was a whisper again, and the translator said, "My master is the most noble tribe of Parthia. His name can be transmitted to your ears with the permission of his kindness. He is the great and brave General Surena."

Li Bida, who was under the eagle mark, burst into rude laughing. He said, "Maybe I have been in a country called Rome for too long. I don't know that there is such a general in this desert where only monkeys and hippos live. Oh, general, please forgive me for your ruthlessness. Maybe I should say that there is a triumphant waiting for you in the city of Rome. Just start from the Grand Collegiate Matius and walk to the Veria Ridge." Then he turned his eyes twice, then looked up at the unscrupulous and clear sky. The whole scene was embarrassed. It was too much like the atmosphere that a Roman envoy was best at creating. It was rude, arrogant, and every word and action that provoked the other party's bottom line, eager to release the catastrophe of war.

"General Surena forgives your rudeness, the Romans. He will leave the punishment to the battlefield. He also wants to question you. Parthian treats Anatolia, Lydia, Levant, and Judiya with courtesy, but why does your governor send his troops to invade this peaceful land?"

"I can leave these reasons until the official envoy of your king comes here and give an appropriate and powerful answer. As for this general, I have no reason to disclose any information about you privately. I can only tell you that the punishment of the Romans on the battlefield will truly fall on the heads of you, the poor mountain people. The Governor has the powerful force of ten legions, and in the coming year, you can use Syria as a base to travel across the entire Mesopotamia..."

At this stage, Adianna actually pulled up the reins of the horse, circled it in circles, and shouted, "I am willing to provide military service and supplies to the Republic like Gerasha and all the kingdoms of Bitinia, and arrange your accommodation. I hope you can give me precious peace to me and my humble kingdom."

After nightfall, Li Bida, who had been bathed, smiled, wearing a loose robe, sat under the ring chair and long foot lamp by the terrace, holding a file, watching there, Mattia and several entourages holding silver-plated kettles, standing beside him. Soon, the bronze door knocker in the room sounded, and creaked, Adiana, wearing a Cretan-style lotus leaf skirt, wearing a horizontal bra, with colorful butterfly sleeves, walked in indignantly, her maroon eyeballs quickly swept her eyes around her, and then shouted to Li Bida in Latin, "Binary ear pot, I didn't expect you to go to Rome City to have fun

After a few years, I married my wife and had children, and my mind was in line with the swineherd there! That Surena was Greek at all, and he could understand whatever you said, and that translator was just a deceiving you! And you just told your superior Crassus's march plan because of your stupidity. Sure enough, you were with a woman like Porty, and you would only make yourself as ridiculous as a fool in Athens. You might as well not follow the expedition. Anyway, you have been exiled by Roman City. Why not stay here? Maybe I can save you."

"No." Li Bida put the file on the small table. "Of course I know that guy will understand Greek. From the ridiculous expression on your face, you can see that the general was the most cunning and tricky enemy of Parthia. I had known it in the intelligence for a long time, but the man was also the most slutty and lustful nobleman. He collected so many beautiful wives and concubines in various countries, including Macedonians and Kaiser, who were all communicating loudly in the hunting grounds in native dialect, and quarreled with my servant, right--so there is no reason he doesn't understand Greek. Now he wants to collect trophy in Ubertnia, and--" As he said, Li Bida stepped forward and placed his hand beside Adiana's soft hair. "You have said before that those who can't speak Greek are all rural gums. If that Surena really can't say a word, how can you look at her with your temper?"
