Roman Slave Owner - Chapter 345

“Ok.”

The women said one after another.

“Dad, be careful.”

Xiao Liwei said.

“Remember to protect mom.”

Li Wei patted him on the shoulder and said.

“Don’t worry, Dad.”

Little Liwei said loudly.

Li Wei smiled, and then walked out. At this time, a sharp brass whistle sounded in the castle, and a large number of guards had begun to gather.

After the assembly, under the leadership of Li Wei, they slowly walked towards the city of Rome.

In the Roman Forum, all kinds of guards and veterans gathered here.

They are the guards of the great elders, even they feel dangerous.

At this moment, the sound of neat pace came from a distance.

A Roman soldier stepped neatly, wearing bright armor, and then gradually appeared in front of them.

Many of those guards and veterans have ugly faces. I don’t know how many people swear, how can someone bring a formed army here? It is crazy.

But after seeing the family crests of those soldiers, they wisely stopped complaining, because they knew they were Li Wei’s men.

An army of 3,000 people occupied half of the place outside the Hostilla Hall. Just in the light rain, all the soldiers stood upright, like javelins, in sharp contrast with the guards and veterans.

Li Wei got off the horse and gently wiped the rain off his face.

At this time, there were no twelve retinues holding ***** around him, and the two consuls took turns in power on a monthly basis.

This month it was Pompey’s turn to govern. In this month, Li Wei was not allowed to take the rebels with ***** in the city.

Many elders looked at him dissatisfied, they thought that Li Wei had done too much.

Cicero, Getta and others hurriedly walked over.

“Have your people arrived?”

Li Wei said to Glius.

“All the crusaders are around the square, ready to come to support.”

Grieus said.

Li Wei nodded, and then said to everyone, “Did you bring everything?”

“Take it.”

Gaeta said.

He revealed the dagger in his clothes, and other people also showed various weapons in his clothes.

Cicero looked pale, and he didn’t expect the situation to develop to this point.

“Remember, if anyone dares to mess around, we will get together. Then you will bring people in Platus. No matter who dares to stop, kill them all.”

Li Wei said coldly.

He would never forget how Caesar was assassinated in the Senate, and he would not make the same mistake.

“Yes.”

“Yes.”

“…”

Everyone said one after another.

“Let’s go in.”

Li Wei said, and then led everyone into the Senate.

At this moment, a figure rushed towards Li Wei.

Startled everyone, some people hurriedly stopped him.

After seeing who he was, everyone was relieved.

“Consultant Li Wei, save me. I know I was wrong, please save my life.”

Saturnin said with a look of horror.

Li Wei looked at him strangely: “Why are you just looking for me now, what were you doing in those days?”

“me……”

Saturnin was speechless for a long time. Can he say that he was deceived by Metluth and Krasu?

It’s not that he didn’t receive the news, but he didn’t believe it, because Metelus and Crassus had assured him that this would never happen.

“I know I was wrong, please help me.”

Saturnin said without tears.

Li Wei looked at him with regret. If he was his retainer, he really wouldn’t mind saving him.

It’s a pity that he is not!

If he fights against the Senate in order to save him, the price he pays is too great.

“State-owned, national laws, family rules, you should run away. But don’t worry, I will avenge you.”

Li Wei said, and then walked to the Senate, ignoring his pleading.

Geta and others glanced at him pityingly, and followed Li Wei in.

After entering the Hostilla Hall, Li Wei glanced at the elders coldly.

The Senate became quiet immediately. They learned that Li Wei had directly brought the army into Rome, and they slandered his decision.

Mettrus greeted him with a smile, and Crassou gave him a triumphant look.

After writing down the expressions of everyone, Li Wei walked to his ivory chair and sat down.

“I didn’t expect it to rain today.”

Pompeo said.

“Yes, it’s also a good day to kill.”

Li Wei said.

Pompeo’s expression became unnatural, “Levy, didn’t you say that the bill was not good.”

“It’s not good, but you know he is on my side now.”

Li Wei said dissatisfiedly.

“Do you think I betrayed you?”

Pompeo said dissatisfiedly.

“So today your people will support the state of emergency law?”

Li Wei asked back.

“will not!”

Pompeo said firmly.

Li Wei was silent for a while. There were too many veterans who had betrayed him a while ago. There were already more than a hundred.

Even with Pompeo’s help, he lost control of the Senate.

“I am very humble, I may have misunderstood you.”

Li Wei said quickly.

“It doesn’t matter, but you need to be more cautious. This time Saturnin really committed public anger.”

Pompeo said.

Li Wei nodded, this time he was really careless.

Metellus and the others can say that they have won a big victory, and they have severely damaged their forces in the Senate in one fell swoop.

After a while, people are almost there.

Pompeo glanced at the senators: “Now I announce that the meeting of the Senate has officially begun.”

The civilian protection officers immediately blocked the exit and no longer allowed anyone to enter or leave.

Li Wei took a look, and Satuning was not among them.

“This meeting was held at the request of the chief veteran and chief priest Metelus. Next, I will invite the veteran Metelus to speak.”

Pompeo said.

There was a lot of applause in the Senate, but some people sneered and just patted their hands gently.

Mettrus stood up with a smile, and then said: “Dear elders, Saturnin proposed a bill some time ago. Although his bill looks good, I think it shakes the roots of Rome. The reasons are as follows. …”

Li Wei looked at him coldly, even wary of Pompeo, not knowing where things will develop today.

“So I think that the Senate should declare a state of emergency for the country.”

Finally Mettrus said, and then glanced at Li Wei intentionally or unintentionally.

Li Wei sneered. It’s better for you to jump out. He is worried that someone else will bring it up.

Metluth’s words won rounds of applause from the Senate, who seemed to be demonstrating to Li Wei, and Krasu also cheered loudly.

“The veteran Mettrus’s speech is very good. Let’s enter into the discussion on whether to enter a state of emergency. Elder Catullus, please speak.”

Pompeo said loudly.

Catullus glanced at Levy, then said, “I object.”

Li Wei smiled and glanced at him, not forgetting that he supported him in the first place.

“Elder Dorabella, please speak.”

“I object.”

“…”

One by one elders began to speak. Some elders expressed opposition, but more elders expressed support. Everyone knew that a state of emergency was inevitable.

“Next, I announce that I will formally vote on this. Those who support the state of emergency stand on my left hand, and those who oppose entering the state of emergency stand on my right hand.”

Pompeo said loudly.

The elders left their seats one after another, and then lined up on both sides of Pompeo.

“Next I declare that 243 people support and 203 people oppose, and Rome has officially entered a state of emergency.”

As Pompeo’s voice landed, applause broke out again in the Senate.

“Dear elders, in view of Saturnin’s special status, I don’t think he will give up that bill. This bill has seriously hurt the interests of the nobles and knights, who have made outstanding contributions to Rome, so I think the sentence He was sentenced to death.”

Mettrus said lightly.

“agree!”

“Kill him!”

“I object!”

“I am opposed to a civilian security officer without trial!”

“…”

There was a fierce quarrel in the hall, and some even blushed.

Li Wei’s face was silent, without any excuse.

Mettrus glanced at the crowd with a sneer, and then said: “Consultant Pompeo, I don’t think we need to discuss it. Let’s vote directly.”

“Well, veterans, now I announce that I will vote on this matter. I agree with the execution of the civilian conservator’s death penalty on my left hand, and those who oppose the execution on my right hand.”

“I hope that veterans will use this right with caution, because it is related to the life and death of a civilian protector.”

Pompeo said.

The veterans hardly changed, only one moved from the left to the right.

“242 votes to 204 votes. Next, I announce that, after a vote by the Senate, Saturin, a civilian protector, will be sentenced to death!”

Pompeo said.

“Good job!”

“We can’t do this!”

“…”

Below was another burst of cheers and curses, some loudly supported and some loudly opposed.

“Dear Archon Li Wei, you are a senior archon, how about you lead someone to execute the death sentence on Saturnin?”

Mettrus said with a smile.

“I refuse. I oppose this behavior of deciding a person’s life and death without trial.”

Li Wei said without hesitation.

Metellus’ smile remained unchanged: “This is not so good. As a Roman consul, you always violate Roman laws to convince people.”

“That’s right, as the consul of Rome, you should take the lead in observing the laws of Rome.”

Krasu said with a sneer at this time.

“Krasu, what are you? You think we don’t know about your private meeting with the virgin Vesta? Talk more, be careful that we sue you for blasphemy.”

At this time, Getta stood up and shouted.

“You…you are slander.”

Krasu said angrily.

Getta sneered and stopped talking, Krasu thought for a while, and finally stopped talking.

“To tell you the truth, I won’t do this. Whoever loves it will do it. Another thing to tell you, Mettrus, don’t think that you can do whatever you want if you master the Senate. You will have retribution if you go on like this. “

Li Wei said with a sneer.

After speaking, he stood up and headed out the door. Geta snorted and followed Li Wei out.

Metluth’s complexion changed slightly, but then he sneered, really not knowing what to say.

After leaving the hall, Li Wei took a deep breath and must admit that he was defeated this time.

“Patriarch, do we want to save Saturnin?”

Getta asked.

“Don’t worry about him.”

Li Wei shook his head and said.

“Don’t we just forget it?”

Gaeta said.

“How can it be so simple, Saturnin has won the hearts of the people. Mettrus is so arrogant, he thought that killing Saturnin would be fine, but he forgot that the hearts of the people can kill people.”

Li Wei said with a sneer, “Go back and stay there, Cicero, come with me. I have something to discuss with you. In addition, I will notify Brutim and let him pay close attention to Saturnin’s whereabouts. If he Report to me immediately when you die.”

“Okay, Patriarch.”

Cicero said quickly.

Li Wei got up and went back to the Vatican with Cicero.

The situation in Rome is too tense these days, and he doesn’t want to live in Rome.

Seeing Li Wei’s safe return, the Vatican quickly opened the fort gate.

Emilia and others rushed over in the rain.

“It’s great that you are okay.”

Emilia said with red eyes.

“It’s okay, I’m very tough, and nothing will happen.”

Li Wei smiled and said, “Okay, I have something to discuss with Cicero, so let’s go back first.”

The girls and Xiao Liwei nodded. They knew that Li Wei was very busy recently, so they didn’t bother.

After returning to the living room, Cicero asked: “How are you going to deal with this?”

“If Saturnin is dead, I want you to promote Saturnin’s death in the “Rome”~www.mtlnovel.com~ I want people to know what happened, and it’s better to make people believe that he was killed by Mett. Luz killed it.”

Li Wei said.

“why is that?”

Cicero asked.

“Saturin represents the interests of the people. If he dies, the people will definitely hate Metluth. I want you to stir up the hatred of the citizens, and then convene a citizen assembly to try Metluth.”

Li Wei said.

“Is this too…”

Cicero said with a shocked face.

Metellus is highly respected, not only the chief elder, but also the chief priest.

“Do you think we won’t win?”

Li Wei smiled.

“Yes, and he is Pompey’s son-in-law.”

Cicero said.

“How can I know if I haven’t done it? This time I will go all out to kill him, at any cost. As for Pompey, you don’t have to worry.”

Li Wei’s bursts of cold light.

Cicero persuaded a few more words, but Li Wei refused.

In desperation, Cicero could only write the article according to Li Wei’s request, and let Li Wei look at it himself.

After dark, Brutim personally came to report that Saturnin was killed by Pompey.

A smile appeared on Li Wei’s face, Mettrus, wait for me to die.

“Sell newspapers! Sell newspapers! Chief veteran Mettrus pushed the Senate into a state of emergency! Asked to kill the civilian protector Saturnin!”

“Saturin demanded to restrict the use of slaves and fight for more job opportunities for Roman citizens and was brutally killed by Metluth!”

“The civilian protector, Lycias, strongly condemned Mettrus’s actions and regarded him as a disgrace to the Romans! Roman public enemy! Vows revenge for Saturnin!”
