planet reborn
Chapter 143
After Pompei heard these words that made him despair, he looked at Yang Rui's irresistible expression and knew that even if he didn't drink any pot of poisonous wine, the god in front of him would immediately execute him. He knew that he had no way to escape.
Already.
His tears wet his thick and unkempt beard. He choked with sobs, picked up the pot of poisonous wine, looked at Yang Rui and finally asked: "After I die, in the next life, in the next life, can I..."
Yang Rui interrupted Pompei's words and said firmly: "You will not have an afterlife. After you die, you will return to my arms and become an inconspicuous cell until I need you.
Maybe you will have an afterlife."
Pompeii let out a long breath, closed his eyes, and drank the jug of sweet wine.
When Yang Rui walked out of the hut, Octavian outside the door asked: "How is it?"
Yang Rui nodded and said, "Now you can go back to Rome to claim credit from Caesar."
Things turned out as Yang Rui expected. When Octavian returned to Rome, Caesar, who was already a lifelong dictator, personally went out of the city to greet Octavian who had returned with great honors, and held a grand banquet to celebrate the death of Pompeii and the emperor.
Thanks to David.
That night, the drunken Caesar led Octavian into his house and solemnly said: "Octavian, my dear child, I have made a will, and you will be my heir. This cannot be changed."
Octavian said: "But Antony is more suitable for this position than I am."
Caesar shook his head and said: "Anthony only thinks about war and women, but you are different. You have a greater desire for power than him. You are my most suitable heir."
Octavian still wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Caesar. He stood up and said: "I am going to Egypt next month. You will take care of all the affairs in Rome. I hope this is a good opportunity to prove your
ability."
When Caesar led all the troops from Rome to Egypt, there was a man in Rome who seemed a little lost. He wandered the streets alone. He frequently lingered over the Germanic prostitutes and chose one to take back to his residence.
After the prostitute gave him enough pleasure, he felt tired and disgusted, so he hurriedly paid the prostitute and sent her away, and then continued to sit in front of the window and drink alone.
At this time, Yang Rui walked into his room and said with a smile: "What? Bruce, drinking alone is not your usual style."
Bruce glanced at Yang Rui and asked, "Didn't you go to Egypt with Caesar?"
Yang Rui smiled and said: "I'm just going back to Rome temporarily to do some things. I will return to Caesar's army before tonight."
Bruce continued to drink. He sneered and said, "Since time is precious, why do you still come to my place?"
Yang Rui said: "I'm here to help you."
"Help me?" Bruce looked at Yang Rui doubtfully and asked, "How can I help? No one cares about me now, whether I live or die, and there will be no record of me in the Roman history books."
Yang Rui smiled and said: "Then why don't you want to write the history of Rome yourself?"
Bruce was stunned and asked: "What do you mean?"
Yang Rui said: "You are Caesar's loyal partner and closest comrade-in-arms. But you are not the only one, because Pompeii was once too!"
These words made Bruce break out in cold sweat, and the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily.
Yang Rui continued: "Pompei's head has been sent back to Rome, and I think you have seen it. If you don't do anything anymore, I think you will end up like him."
Bruce said impatiently: "I didn't do those despicable and dirty things. Why would Caesar target me? Antony or Octavian, who is not his accomplice and lackey? There are many more things than I know!"
"
Yang Rui said: "But their surname is Julius, and your surname is Scipio! Everyone in Rome thought that Pompeii betrayed the Republic, and you are one of the people who know the true situation of this matter.
Haven't you made plans earlier?"
Bruce asked, "What can I do?"
Yang Rui stood in front of Bruce and said: "Now Caesar is fooling around in Egypt with the Egyptian Queen Cleopatra in Memphis. The woman's gentleness makes Caesar have no time to take care of the affairs of the city of Rome. This is your good opportunity."
Bruce thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "No, Caesar would not treat me like that. I fought side by side with him in Gaul for seven years. He is not that kind of despicable person."
Yang Rui took out a jug of wine from his arms and placed it in front of Bruce's eyes and said: "This is the purpose of my return to Rome. I give this jug of wine to you. This is also Caesar's order."
Seeing the jug of wine, Bruce was shocked and his body kept shaking. He said in a trembling voice: "Caesar really wants to kill me?"
Yang Rui nodded and said, "Yes, I am here to execute the order."
Bruce looked at Yang Rui in horror and said, "Aren't you here to help me?"
Yang Rui said: "If you agree to cooperate with me, I will help you. If you refuse, then this pot of wine will be yours."
Bruce suddenly shouted: "Guards, guards!"
Yang Rui said: "I have disarmed your guards. Now there are all my people outside the door. You have nowhere to go."
Bruce took a deep breath and asked, "How do you want me to cooperate with you?"
Yang Rui smiled slightly and said: "I will not kill you, and I will hide you and deceive Caesar. But you can't continue like this. You need to do something."
Bruce asked: "What happened?"
Yang Rui said: "In this city, there are many people who want Caesar to die, especially those members of the Senate! Your task is to contact those members and let them unite to overthrow Caesar's dictatorship and kill him
.”
"Kill Caesar?" Bruce shook his head repeatedly and said, "He is the most powerful man in the world. How could I and those incompetent congressmen kill him?"
Yang Rui said: "In a month, Caesar will return to Rome, his army will stay in Egypt, and Antony will stay there. I will convince Caesar to send Octavian to the far north to resist the Germanic attack. In this way,
, Caesar is alone. In the city of Rome, when going to the Senate to discuss matters, Caesar never brings guards, so this is the best opportunity."
Seeing that Bruce was still hesitating, Yang Rui continued: "If you don't do this, then history will be like this. Bruce betrayed the Roman Republic and was executed by the wise Caesar, and future generations will never know the truth.
. If you do it, then history will be written by you."
Bruce slammed the wine bottle to the ground, looked at Yang Rui and said: "I want to write history, and I will never let Caesar slander me and kill me wantonly like this!"
Yang Rui nodded and said: "This is best. I hope to see the best result for you, one dies and the other Caesar!" (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
