Chapter 29 Triangular Relationship (Part 1)
"Never go to war with two enemies at the same time." - Ancient Roman proverb
—————————————————
After a while, Li Bida seemed to remember something and said that this matter should be the affairs of the archivist, but Si Pingzeel had just been taken out and his position had been deprived. Another archivist, Your Excellency Bisuo, cannot drive alone, so we also need an older man to succeed Si Pingzeel's vacant position.
"I recommend Lord Cicero, only he can be the elder who protects the entire republic." This is a signal sent by Barcelona and Kota.
Then, the fencemen also agreed, because they understood the whole story when they saw Li Bida clearly agreeing on his face.
The final result was to vote on the spot, and Cicero was elected as Bisso's colleague inspector on the spot.
It can be said that everyone is "happy", but this is not the case for a considerable number of veterans. Cicero, who had just put on a purple-edged robe, immediately finalized the "delist" of 70 people with Bisso, most of whom were the murderers of Caesar, or had some connection with this murder case, and some were Cicero's personal enemies. Anyone in any era can express their understanding and understanding.
The Senate suffered a huge cleanup, like a ship suddenly encountered storm, but for the Caesars, it was definitely a remarkable victory. Li Bida's outside army advanced and joined forces with Cicero's side in the inside, achieving amazing results.
In the villa of Pulaima, all the women and servants lined up to congratulate the master, man and father. Li Bida, wearing the robe of the consul, successfully took over the supreme authority of the Republic. He was a legal officer when he fled from Rome. Later, he became a public enemy, and now he has returned here, but he has become the most prominent and powerful figure.
Like Li Bida, who walked into the courtyard after her adoptive father's greetings, was the first person he met, his daughter Corina and his daughter-in-law Vivia. His daughter looked in a good mood. "Can he become a legal officer after Tulinus returns again?"
"Yes, he held such an honorable official position at such a young age. This is not only my pride, but also yours, right? " Li Bida touched Corina's hair and congratulated her.
But Vivia was obviously restless because her husband could still be detained in Anthony. "Father, what I want to remind you is that you are going out to fight tomorrow, and Corio is still trapped in the enemy's camp."
"I will bring my child back. No one can hurt him, especially Anthony, who is now and the past." Li Bida comforted his daughter-in-law and said.
Then he saw Claudia and Fulivia coming out of the garden. They both approached and grabbed Libida's robe and asked for his pity for Anthony. "Since you have the power to pursue the challenge, you should open a favor to Marco. Marco made a mistake this time, but for Libidaus, he has the right to be forgiven by you."
"My son treats Marco as his father." Li Bida's answer made everyone feel at ease on the spot.
But after the farewell banquet, Porty quietly grabbed his hand and said to him in the corner of the hall, "Brutu escaped and became a public enemy, and my friend, also his wife, Portia, is about to die..."
Li Bida, holding a wine glass in his hand, looked at her woman, and obviously she felt sad for Portia. From the moment Brutu walked out of the house to assassinate Caesar, Portia was in a bad mood. Her hair-combed maid clearly saw that Portia walked hysterically in the hall, almost fainting. When Brutu left, she was completely collapsed. People watched her swim around the door and garden in pajamas and nightgowns. She could no longer remember anything, except for the night before March 15, "I can't and can't stop my husband. A just cause always has to be sacrificed." This was the only clear word she said.
"Enough, a kind-hearted woman, don't say anything more." Li Bida put down his glass of wine. "Since you are willing to treat Brutu and Portia as friends, I have the same idea. Come with me before I go to the barracks after night."
At night, twenty Medegi Guards held torches and swords in front of the road. Li Bida rode his horse and escorted Porti, who was sitting on his shoulder, to the abandoned house in Brutujiji.
Almost all the servants had fled, and the friend left fearfully with implicated. The door and colonnade were covered with dust and spider webs. Even Brutu's mother rarely came to visit. Perhaps she hated Portia for not being able to dissuade Brutu, or perhaps she was not in the mood to face the wife of the murderer who killed Caesar.
Portia was wearing a robe that was not fit, and sat on the bed in the main hall. The only remaining fires swayed like quiet ghosts, saying that they were not fit, not because the original robe was too big, but because she became too thin.
Seeing Li Bida and Porti walk in, Portia raised her sinking eyes and scattered hair and looked at the two of them with empty eyes. Portia couldn't help it first, and rushed forward to hold Portia's face and started crying.
"Have your children already married or married?" This is Portia's question.
Li Bida nodded.
"How great, I think the garden and fruit trees in your yard are also lush. The God of the family blessed all of you and immersed you in happiness, but the nutrients of the earth will never change. If there is anger, there will be withering." It is hard to say that Portia's eyes are looking at. The blow she has suffered is too great. Li Bida still remembers that when she first met her husband on a boat to Sardinia, Brutu said that his cousin's hair was like the soil of an olive garden, and his face was like the apple in Venus's hand.
"I took it upon my own fault. I instigated him. He was just a simple and stupid person. He had never raised a lover. He loved me wholeheartedly, valued friendship with everyone, and never changed his mind. Even if we had no children, he never went to flirt with me, let alone give up on me. He loved his adoptive father, but was deeply influenced by my father. It seemed that all cruel choices fell on Brutu's head. All - perhaps, marrying Portia was a kind of cruelty for him, and he made him sacrifice himself on the altar of the Republic."
"Don't say it, don't say it anymore, Portia. That's a world of men fighting, we don't have to worry about it." Porty said to his neck, "I beg my man that he will let Brutu go, he will send Brutu back to reunite with you. You just need to go to the countryside and go there without asking about the world. Didn't the Romans say that as long as a person is willing to give up his or her campaign in the Civic Square, he will not be in any danger, and it will be safe."
Portia grabbed Porty's hand, and her eyes emitted a little light. Is it true? Libidaus is willing to pardon her husband? (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!
