Chapter 97: Ask Again
Hearing Maximus sighing, Ji Mo smiled and said, "How was it? Did you come in time?".

"It would have been nice to have come earlier!" Maximus smiled wryly, and said in a low voice, "You don't know, it's really uncomfortable, and the rare good mood was completely destroyed by them!".

Ji Mo pinched his chin and said, "Are they wooing you?".

"Yeah!" Maximus nodded, took the wine glass from Ji Mo's hand, and took a big sip.

"It seems that you are very popular!" Ji Mo teased.

"Cough!" Hearing this, Maximus choked on the wine in his mouth, glared fiercely at the end of the season, and said, "You think you can escape their harassment because of your reputation in the army! ?”.

At the end of the season, he let out a smirk and said, "I'll just say that everything I do is on par with you!".

Maximus gritted his teeth, lowered his voice, and said, "Fuck you!".

"Hehe!" After a chuckle at the end of the season, he put away the smile on his face and said seriously: "Maximus, since you already feel that you want to leave here, return to your hometown, and reunite with your family, then We must work hard to get out of this political vortex! Sometimes, a peaceful life is also won by oneself!".

Hearing this, Maximus patted Ji Mo on the shoulder, nodded, and then asked, "What about you? Are you planning to go there?".

Because the system has not released the second phase of the mission yet, Ji Mo was silent for a while and said: "I don't know, if there is nothing else, maybe I will choose to go to your hometown with you!".

"Haha, welcome!" Maximus smiled brightly.

After the laughter fell, Maximus seemed to remember something, and asked doubtfully, "Didn't you say that Caesar was looking for me?".

"Huh? Did I tell you?"

"How dare you pass orders falsely!" Maximus' eyes widened.

"I didn't lie. Caesar is indeed looking for me! He's just not looking for you."

"Then why don't you go!" Maximus pushed the end of the season.

At the end of the season, he spread his hands and said with a smile: "You will avenge your kindness, brother, if it wasn't for you, I would have gone early!".

"Get lost!" Maximus scolded with a smile, and after Ji Mo went away, he really pinched his chin, and doubts appeared in his eyes: "Why did Caesar look for Mo?".

……

Why did Caesar find him? At the end of the season, he was also thinking about this question. Although Maximus found him and said that Caesar called his name and asked him to come, he had already guessed that Caesar should have something to tell him, but what is it?
"Are you the end of the season?"

At this time, a beautiful woman in a gorgeous long dress with a graceful temperament stood in front of Ji Mo who was walking and thinking.

"Huh?" Ji Mo came back to his senses, focused his eyes on the woman, was taken aback for a moment, and then a name flashed in his mind, Lucia, Caesar's daughter.

"It seems you recognized me, haha!" Lucia chuckled, looking at Ji Mo's eyes full of curiosity, and said: "I heard that you and Maximus have a good relationship? They are as close as brothers. ?".

"Ha ha!"

He didn't know what the woman's purpose was for asking such a question, so he just chuckled and didn't answer. As soon as he turned around, he was about to leave the woman.

But just as he took steps, Lucia's figure appeared next to him again, smiling and saying: "Okay, I won't ask this nonsense question!".

After a pause, with some hesitation, expectant eyes flashed in his eyes, and he asked, "Has he ever told you about me?".

At the end of the quarter, he was startled for a moment. The amount of information in these words is a bit large. Could it be that Maximus has a past with this woman?

"No!" At the end of the season, he said honestly. Maximus talked about his wife and son the most in front of him, and did not mention other women.

"Really?" Lucia murmured with disappointment in her eyes, and said to the end of Ji: "Come with me, my father is waiting for you!".

The voice fell, and no more words were spoken, leading the way at the end of the season.

At the end of the season, it was the second time I saw the old man with the greatest power in Rome, and this time he was obviously weaker than ten days ago.

When the old man saw Ji Mo, a smile appeared on his wrinkled face. After signaling his daughter to go out, the old man just asked softly: "I want to confirm again now! You said you would follow In the footsteps of Maximus, advance and retreat together with him, right?".

"Yes!" At the end of the season, the answer was still the same.

"Huh!" Hearing Ji Mo's answer that was the same as last time, the old man let out a sigh of relief, looked at Ji Mo with admiration, and then said: "He is very lucky to have a brother like you !”.

"I'm also very lucky!" Ji Mo replied seriously.

The old man shrank himself in the chair, not like an emperor, but like a lonely old man, and said: "Then, remember what you said today, Maximus may encounter many difficulties, with you , he will be much more relaxed..."

As he said that, the old man closed his eyes as if he was tired, and waved to Ji Mo, indicating that he could leave.

Turning around and leaving, Ji Mo's eyes were full of thought. Today, Caesar asked him the same question as last time, as if confirming his attitude.

"Maximus will encounter many difficulties..."

"This sentence has some meaning. If he agrees to Maximus' request to go home, there shouldn't be any difficulties. Then what he means is..." Ji Mo's eyes flickered, and he sighed in his heart.

After leaving at the end of the season, the old man with his eyes closed opened his eyes, and a sharp look flashed across his cloudy eyes.

Ji Mo's appearance and rapid fame in the army made him feel that Ji Mo had become a presence that could not be ignored in the army, even more influential than the deputy commander Quintas!

If he stood on the opposite side of Maximus at the end of the season, it would definitely be a big trouble. If so, he would directly eliminate this threat before he declared Maximus as his heir!
"Based on my years of experience in seeing people, what he said is not a lie. It seems that Maximus is lucky. God favors him. With the end of this season, things in the army are stable..."

"Maximus, forgive my selfishness, I can't let you go home, only you are suitable to be the new heir of Rome, only you who have not been polluted by dirty politics, you who don't care about power, are suitable to be The new guardian of Rome! Rome can be restored to the republic again, Maximus, forgive my selfishness..."

The old man sighed, remembering the longing look in Maximus' eyes when he talked about going home, he felt deeply sorry for the loyal man who was deeply attached to his family.

"As for my son, Commodus, you are really not suitable to be the master of Rome. Besides, it's time for Rome to restore the republic..."

After the words fell, the old man became a little weaker and slowly closed his eyes.
