Chapter 28 Portia's Blood (2)

Brutu rushed in almost madly, then he helped Portia up, and saw a deep hole in her leg, which was poked by scissors. "We don't know why Portia did this, but it must be related to your conversation with Trenchia's husband just now."

It turned out that Portia had been hiding behind the curtain just now. She also noticed that her husband's recent abnormal movements must have a lot to do with the assassination of Caesar, otherwise Brutu would not have been restless easily. The conversation just now confirmed her guess, but she also saw that Brutu was retreating at the last moment.

At this time, Portia grabbed her husband's arm and said in a weak voice, "Dear Brutu, I am the daughter of Little Gatu. You can't just regard me as a woman who sleeps with her sleep. I hope to share the joys and sorrows with you. I am glad that my husband is you. This is the luckiest thing Portia has encountered in her life. But this is all my imagination. Who would entrust her secrets and thoughts to a weak woman? Oh my God, that's why I took the uneven measures, but now Brutu I just want to tell you that although your mother Sevilla is my father's sister in name, they were not the two of them who were not born by the same father. They only entered our family later.

So Sevilla's idea is that it has nothing to do with the Gatu family. Since you, Brutu, is my father's son-in-law, has long been regarded as the heir to this family. My father died tragically in the city of Marcelia, and my brother is idle all day long and lingering under the woman's skirt. So I can only regard you and my husband as the heirs of family tradition. I am honored as Gatu's daughter and Brutu's wife. But you, he hesitant for some irrelevant things. It makes me so embarrassed. Then I can only feel guilty for being both identities, so I can't feel the pain of being unconsciously stabbing myself and not feeling the pain."

After hearing his wife's words, Brutu, who covered her legs, burst into tears. In his original impression, his wife's hair was as dark as the soil in the olive garden, and her skin was like an apple held by Venus, but now Portia was tortured and painful. Her face was pale and her body was weak. Perhaps the death of his father was just a voice for the country to others, but for Portia, half of the world was destroyed, but she was still anxious: Will the remaining half of the world, that is, her husband Brutu, also enter into destruction in this storm? She was like struggling in the crack of the whirlpool of bitter water, slowly unable to breathe. Her body became more and more painful.

But she could not express her answer clearly, because her husband was Brutu, so she could only try to make a difference and incite her husband to engage in the matter of saving the republic, because Portia had no choice. Among the sisters, she was the only philosopher, the wife of Brutu, the descendant of the ancestors of the Republic, and was unshirkable.

"Only when elected as Chief Official, can you have a better chance to approach Caesar, because it can stand directly on the steps of the synagogue and handle affairs, and also have the power to express your feelings directly to the dictator." Brutu hugged Portia's neck, his emotions began to calm down, and he said firmly.

The meaning inside is already very obvious.

Portia was excited and almost fainted. Of course, it was not joy, but in an ocean where ice water and flames each accounted for half.

But the next day, Caesar suddenly summoned all the veterans above the finance officer, and the proposal was unknown, which almost scared Brutu. However, he told Portia nothing, but left the house early in the morning, and went with a dagger in his arms.

In Julia's Hall, Caesar stood quietly in front of the speech podium, and the Senate sat along the seat one by one. At this time, Li Bida's figure also appeared beside the dictator. However, to Brutu's surprise, Caesar did not discuss any topics he was worried about, but simply "exchanged opinions" with the veterans in the coming year, of course, it was just "exchange".

"Now the ranks of legal officials have increased to 16 places, but I have reduced the chief officer from two to one. So today's proposal is that I recommend selecting a famous chief officer from Brutu and Kassi." Caesar said just this, which caused a huge impact in the Senate.

When Brutu heard this proposal in the seat, the dagger almost slipped out of his robe. He didn't understand. Could it be that he really had perfectly covered up his true intentions? Caesar really couldn't notice his thoughts? At this moment, many elders stood up to protest, saying that the position of the Chief ** and the High Priest is equally important, but neither of them was over forty years old and had no qualifications or expectations to hold this position.

But then, Caesar and Li Bida exchanged their eyes, and Caesar continued, "I believe my opinion, and it was revealed more clearly in my speech to disband the guards in the square a few days ago - first of all, you must admit that I am Dick Tyduo, I have the priority to recommend, and then come to debate with my ideas. If you think my recommendation has no value, it is to question my dictatorial power, and then return to the origin of all things - you recommend another person to command the legion preparing for the expedition on my behalf."

These words made the elders sit down in anger and whisper to each other in private. Kasio and Brutu couldn't help but stand up, sweating flowing on their backs.

At this time, Luga stood up with his knees and said, "I have no prejudice against Brutu. The last fight in the synagogue was a temporary verbal conflict. But I think he has too little public experience and has only served as a financial officer. No matter what era, this official position is just the starting point. Now he has been promoted to the position of legal officer or chief legal officer. I believe it is not a good thing for the Republic and Brutu himself. But Kasio is different. He has served as a financial officer, deputy general of the army and chief executive of the province. He has rich military and political experience and is a candidate for this position."

"Paipa." This is the response of Anthony and several veterans on the seat, and then many veterans also applauded in an inertial manner.

At this time, Brutu also sat down because he did not intend to compete with Kassi. Since the Senate recognized it so much, he felt at ease.

As a result, at this time, Li Bida, who was beside Caesar, suddenly spoke, "But the dictator thinks that Brutu is more suitable to be the Chief Official."

As soon as this statement was spoken, the Senate was completely infuriated, and Brutu was so shocked that his ears roared. Then he looked at Li Bida looking at him without any expression, and felt even more anxious. (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!
