Roman Slave Owner

Chapter 358: procrastination

"stand by."

Dorabella said.

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

"stand by."

Senior Catullus smiled.

"..."

The veterans were questioned one after another, and their answers were clean and neat, which made many people feel bad.

If this continues, both issues may be passed today.

Some veterans exchanged glances, and they quickly understood each other's meaning.

So a veteran began to talk freely, completely ignoring Li Wei's no more than 5 minutes and suggestions.

Li Wei looked at him with a sneer, mocking, and playing tricks with me.

"This veteran, you have been over 5 minutes, you can stop."

Li Wei said lightly.

The senator ignored him, but continued to speak.

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

Li Wei said with a smile.

"I protest! I strongly protest! He has the right to express his views! You can't deprive this right!!"

At this time, a veteran protested loudly. He left his position and came to the middle of the hall.

"Please go back to your seat, this veteran."

Li Wei said.

"I refuse! I protest! All the elders should stand up and protest against Li Wei's tyranny!"

The elder continued to speak loudly.

Some elders were ready to move, but thought of what happened yesterday, and soon calmed down.

Li Wei sneered: "Guard, pull him down, cover his mouth, don't let him talk. But don't drive him out, you will need him to vote later."

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

They struggled desperately, but they were of no use.

"I suggest to kick them out because they disrupted the order of the meeting."

Pompeo said.

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

Li Wei looked into Pompeo's eyes and said.

Pompeo blinked. "Well, that's it."

Li Wei sneered, unexpectedly Pompeo would start playing tricks.

The helpless faces of those elders were unexpectedly seen by Li Wei again.

A famous veteran gave a speech, and then quickly entered the voting session.

"Now I announce that 250 people are in favor and 96 are against, and the citizens' assembly can be held within the next market day without divination."

Li Wei said loudly.

Those elders looked sad, but they didn't expect that Li Wei would finally achieve it.

The next motion is the second motion. Many veterans of this motion reacted fiercely, but because of their small number, this motion was still passed strongly.

It was already dark at this time, and Li Wei's face showed a faint smile. Many elders were like bereaved concubines. They lost too badly today, and they were not convinced.

"Well, let's end the meeting now,"

Li Wei said.

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

At this time, a veteran caught Tuskus who was about to leave.

"If you don't tell me, I forgot, presumably veteran Mettrus is also waiting in a hurry."

Tuskus smiled and said, Pompeo walked towards Tuskus with a sullen face, and many elders surrounded him as if escorting a prisoner.

They knew that tonight was Metelus’ last chance, and once the old citizens’ assembly was officially held tomorrow, then Metelus 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 synagogue, he found a slave waiting here anxiously, and was overjoyed after seeing Tuskus.

"Master, the big thing is not good. Madam has just committed an old problem again. The doctor said that the condition is very serious, and it may be hopeless."

"What are you talking about? This...it's impossible. Madam..."

Tuskus was shocked, and he fainted after rolling his eyes.

Seeing this, many elders were stunned. Elder Metelus was still waiting for you to save him. Why did you faint.

Cicero and the others hurriedly gathered around to probe his breath.

"Elder Tuskus, what's the matter with you?"

"Doctor, go call a doctor, Elder Tuscus's illness has returned."

"..."

Seeing Cicero and the others in a hurry, Pompeo and others were shaking.

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

"Ah...cough... Elder Tuskus has always been in poor health. He seems to have a heart problem and high blood pressure. Let's take him to the doctor as soon as possible, otherwise something big will happen."

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

The elders looked at Li Wei angrily. Do you dare to be shameless again?

Cicero and the others quickly agreed, and then they were about to take Tuskus away. Some elders quickly stopped them.

"My elders, there is not much time for veteran Mettrus. I think we should take Tuscus to the house of veteran Mettrus and find someone to treat him there."

Said a veteran.

"This veteran doesn’t know anything, like Elder Tuscus’s condition is very complicated. His disease is likely to cause various complications, such as cerebral hemorrhage, hyperlipidemia, etc., should not be raised. I think it is better to lift it. Get treatment at the nearest medical clinic."

Li Wei said.

"How did you know?"

The elder said unconvincedly.

Li Wei laughed and didn't answer, but the other elders answered.

"Archon Li Wei is our great philosopher in Rome, and his words will be wrong."

"Capua Academy is the best place in our Roman medicine. Who dares to question the vision of Archon Li Wei."

"..."

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

Some elders were still unwilling to give up and wanted to go forward and grab someone, but Geta and their opponents finally managed to **** Tuskus over, and then carried him to the nearest hospital.

Li Wei even ordered the medical hall to be surrounded by heavy soldiers and not to disturb other veterans.

As long as the next day comes, then the big deal is set.

Seeing this, the elders were itching with hatred, and some even yelled at them, but there was no way.

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

Maybe Mettrus will engage in some demon moth tomorrow, he should send Lucias there.

***

***

In a villa on Palatine Hill, Mettrus was distraught as the sky grew darker and darker.

He knew that as time passed, the possibility of his exile became less and less.

What happened to the Senate? Why hasn't Tuskus come to his house yet?

He knows what's wrong with Bacheng for a long time.

"Father, is Li Wei playing a ghost, so Tuskus is not coming."

Keller asked anxiously.

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

Having said this, Mettrus sighed long.

I knew that today, why bother to fight against Li Wei in the first place.

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

Keller said in horror.

"Hahaha, I said long ago that Li Wei won't let you go, you still don't believe it."

Nepos said with a laugh.

He was full of alcohol now, as if he was soaking in a wine jar.

If there is still a chance for Metellus and Keller to survive, then his chance of survival is zero.

Therefore, he was completely let go, and instead of crucifying tomorrow, it would be better to drink to death.

Mettrus gave him a hateful look, and said nothing in the end, and was still angry with him at this time.

"Master, Archon Pompeo and a few elders are here."

At this time a slave ran over and said.

"This is really great."

Mettrus said with a surprised look, and then he and Kyler went to meet him in person.

Soon they found Pompeo and several elders walking in. What worries them is that they did not find Tuskus.

"Tuskus, didn't he... come?"

Mettrus said tremblingly.

He knew that his life was up to Tuscus. If the judge met a senior official during the trial, he should have asked him many times if he wanted to be exiled.

Tuskus did inquire many times, but he refused.

Now he desperately wants to see Tuskus once, just once, otherwise he will not be able to exile himself.

"Levy and the others were playing tricks, saying that Tuskus's family fell ill, but Tuskus fainted directly and said that we shouldn't let us carry him over."

An elder said angrily.

Hearing this, Metelus felt dizzy. How could this be?

How can they be exiled without the permission of the justice?

"We left someone there. As long as he wakes up, he will be **** even if he wakes up."

Pompeo comforted.

Of course he knew that this was really just comforting words, because even if he was tied up, he couldn't be tied away.

"It's over, it's over. Li Wei, you bastard, you and I will make no difference."

Keller cried directly, his whole body almost collapsed, tears and nose streaming out all at once.

"Could it be...is there no other way?"

At this time a very beautiful lady said.

After seeing her, Pompeo gave a cold snort and turned his head to the side. This person was his former wife, Metelus' daughter Musia.

"Yes, there is, that is, to find Justice Aquilinus or Justice Marcherus, as long as you find one, you can exile the elders of Metelus and Keller, but they are all missing. ."

Said a veteran.

"Then send someone to find it soon."

Musia said anxiously.

"But we don't even know where they fled."

Said the elder.

"It's all Li Wei, I don't know how many elders are scared away, otherwise the veteran Metluth will never worry about his life."

Some people are indignant.

"Don't worry, I have sent a large number of cavalry to find, maybe we can find it. So we must find a way to delay time, as long as we can drag them back."

Pompeo said at this time.

"This is great, thank you, Pompeo."

Mettrus said moved.

Even Keller and Musia thanked.

"Nothing, this is what I should do."

Pompeo said lightly, he really didn't want to talk to Musia.

Then everyone discussed the way to deal with it, nothing more than doing everything possible to delay time.

Pompeo sighed deeply, then found a place where there were few people and sat down.

He lost the game with Li Wei after all, and once the divination method is changed, then Li Wei's power will increase greatly.

Many elders are afraid of the death penalty and will not dare to oppose Li Wei easily. How can this be good?

The noisy night finally passed, and a flaming sun rose from the east.

Metelus and the others ate their last meal in a heavy atmosphere, when there was a faint sound of trumpets from the city wall.

Everyone's expressions were extremely ugly, and Kyler almost collapsed on the chair, which was tantamount to a horn of death for their family.

"Don't worry, everyone, try your best to delay the time, maybe Aquilinus and Marcherus can rush back in time."

Pompeo said.

"That's right, take time."

"Yes, it's just a drag."

"..."

The elders said one after another.

Metelus nodded, and at this moment he looked at the two of Aquilinus.

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

Since they are defendants, this is urging them to attend the citizens' assembly.

Mettrus' eyes were red with anger, which is a great shame to the Mettrus family~www.readwn.com~ Their family is the most powerful nobleman in Rome, and they did not expect to suffer such a shame.

Everyone was in no mood to speak, and it didn't take long for a slave to report.

"Report to the master that Lucias and the guards are knocking on the door without stopping, 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 Metelus, and found that Metelus hadn't said anything, so he retreated with great wit.

But before long, there was a mess of footsteps and noise outside, and Lysias rushed in with a large number of guards regardless of the slaves' obstruction.

"Lysias, what do you mean? You even broke into the mansion of the chief veteran."

Pompeo couldn't help yelling.

Lysias smiled disdainfully, why did he even need to talk about it?

He ignored Pompeo, but said to Metellus: "Honorable elder, the hour has come. It's time to go to the Citizens' Assembly for trial, otherwise it would not be good to be misunderstood."

"Well... I'll... go."

Mettrus sighed and said, he was about to stand up after he finished speaking, but he did not stand up after standing up several times. It was the other person who helped him to stand up.

"There are also Keller, Nepos, Scipio Metellus, none of you can be less, and today you will all be tried, and you are at the forefront."

Lucias said with a smile, this meeting was hosted by Li Wei, and of course we had to make arrangements for them.

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

"Really, I don't think so."

Lycias spread his hands and said.
