Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

Hearing this, Davos didn't even blink his eyes. He has been assassinated several times over the years, and there have been many attempted assassination plots that have been uncovered.

Some citizens of Roman origin, mainly some former Roman nobles living in Turii, according to the information now obtained, their organizers may be Servius, Frius, Aulus, Minusius... ...It is clear that Lentulus is also involved... Aristillas said slowly in a tone that did not contain any fluctuations.

When he heard this, Davos was slightly surprised: Publius' son Manliius Lentulus?

Yes, Your Majesty. It was through Lentulus that the slave in the slave camp learned about these things. Aristillas remembered something, and emphasized again: That slave was also once a Roman master. noble.

Oh?! It seems that these former nobles in Rome are not all shortsighted. There are still people who can see the current situation clearly and recognize the Kingdom of Dionia. Therefore, the slave should be rewarded heavily and greatly. Propaganda, but also protect him, you go to Raphias with my warrant, and let his subordinate slave management office give this slave freedom in advance.

Yes. Aristillas asked again: Your Majesty, should we arrest these rebels immediately, or induce them to... catch them all in one go? But the reason why he asked this question was because Davos had taken personal risks several times in the past (the Hades Celebration assassination more than ten years ago and the assassination at the Temple of Diana in Rome a few years ago). In the end, great benefits were obtained.

Davos tapped the table with his fingers, pondered for a while, and then slowly said: It has not been a few years since the war, and now the kingdom needs stable development. The Romans, Phoenicians, Sacraments in the kingdom The Monet people... also need time to integrate into the kingdom, and if this happens at an influential gathering like the Congress of Greek Scholars, it will have a very big impact, and the situation will be out of control!

Davos said so much, obviously to remind Aristillas, and then he said in a deep voice: You quickly mobilize your people, find out the whole thing, have conclusive evidence, and then cooperate with the Turii Inspection Department to carry out arrests. You can't let any gangster go, but you can't wrong a good person either!

Yes.

Davers asked again, Where are you going to start?

Aristillas said without hesitation: I decided to interrogate Lentulus first, because he is a good breakthrough.

Then, Aristillas briefly described the process of how Lentulus leaked the matter.

Davos listened, and said with a sigh: Such an important event requires precise planning, these people are far worse than Dionysius! I agree with you to interrogate Lentulus first, but also Considering Publius' feelings... by the way, did Publius have any contact with these people?

Aristillas understood what he meant and said truthfully: From the monitoring so far, nothing abnormal has been found, and according to my judgment, he should not know about it.

Davos pondered for a moment and said, Well...you go and tell him to come to me now.

………………………………

When Publius received the notice, he was at home reprimanding his eldest son, Lentulus, and he felt a headache: since the family moved to Turii, the son had become more and more rebellious, and he was not allowed to go to school in Turii. Study hard and fail the public service exam. Finally, he was arranged to be a scribe at the Turii town hall,

As a result, he didn't work well, and often hung out with the old Roman nobles. He didn't listen to any persuasion. Today, he proposed to move out and live alone, which made him angry again.

Knowing that the king was going to summon him, Publius didn't dare to neglect him, and immediately set off for the Hill of Kings, thinking along the way: what was King Davos summoning himself for so late?

For a while, I was thinking: the eldest son is now old and so rebellious, is it possible to find a marriage for him, maybe it will make him calmer...

Publius's mansion is in the western outer city, even if he is an elder, he has to show Davos' warrant to the city guard to enter the inner city (because it is difficult to freely enter and exit the inner city at night, unless is a special case).

Publius was full of thoughts all the way, but he did not slow down, and he soon climbed the hill of kings.

Davers went out in person and welcomed him into the living room.

Lord Publius, have you eaten dinner? Davos asked with a smile.

have eaten.

Then have a drink with me. After Davos finished speaking, the servant brought the wine that had been prepared.

This is a new wine produced by the Orpheus family, which has not been sold yet. I heard that you love to drink wine, please taste it carefully to see what is different from the wine they used before, and give them some advice. Comments.

Publius had no choice but to press down the doubts in his heart, took a sip, and then his eyes lit up: This wine... is not very sweet, it's a little sour, it's delicious!

It seems that after Orpheus came out of prison, there was no political interference, he devoted himself to research, and made a good wine! Davers raised his glass with a smile: Publius, you are the first Come to me as a guest next time, you are welcome!

Publius followed and raised his glass, and after taking a sip, he heard Davos say, How many years have you served as the adjutant of Turii?

Publius answered truthfully: Your Majesty, it has been more than two years.

Two years... Davos put down his glass, thought about it, and said, Lysias has told me several times that your performance as an administrative adjutant is very good! As far as I know, you have been a long-term adjutant before. As a Roman mayor, you have rich administrative experience. It can be seen that as long as you are familiar with the system and laws of the kingdom, you can make some achievements. The other elders who joined the kingdom with you are not as good as you in this regard. I see that you are fully capable of serving as a town administrator on your own!

When Publius heard this, his heart moved, and he began to look forward to it.

When Davos raised his glass again, he hurriedly raised it in response.

If you can do things, you have to dare to serve! Davers said meaningfully: I remember that you served as the administrative adjutant of Turii, and you also took charge of the inspection department.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Today, my court herald received definite information that some people in Turii conspired to assassinate me at the All-Greek Scholars Conference. What do you think should be done? Davos said softly.

There is such a thing! Publius was shocked, and immediately made a solemn statement: Your Majesty, please send Aristillas to assist me, I will notify the Turii Inspection Office to arrest these people, and then conduct a strict interrogation, and once verified, sentenced to death !

Davos looked at him and said in a deep voice, According to Aristillas, these people are the old Roman nobles headed by Servius, Aulus, and Frius, your son Renturu. Sri Lanka is also involved.

What? ! ! Publius was like a thunderclap, his body was shaken, and the wine glass in his hand fell, and the bright red wine flowed down the table. He subconsciously wanted to question what he had just heard, but he saw Davos With deep eyes, cold sweat broke out uncontrollably, hesitated for a moment, stood up tremblingly, gritted his teeth and said, Your Majesty, I don't know... No, I will arrest Lentulus for interrogation, if he really Participating in this diabolical incident should be severely punished according to the circumstances... or even put to death...

Sit down first, don't worry. Heavy sentence? Execution? ... I don't think it's that serious. Davers was satisfied with his performance, and calmly consoled: Since you joined the kingdom, you have been actively supporting the past few years. And the implementation of various resolutions related to Rome promulgated by the kingdom, and also put forward a lot of useful suggestions, reducing the turmoil of the Romans in the kingdom, and speeding up the progress of their integration into the kingdom.

For example, 'relocating the generals and officials of the former Roman army such as Servius, Frius, and Aulus to Turii, using the strong security capabilities of this central city, can supervise the nearest And to deter them... 'This suggestion from you is indeed a very good suggestion, so we can find the clue in time. If it is in other towns, I am afraid there will be a lot of trouble, so I absolutely believe in you Loyalty to the Kingdom!

And I also know that these old Roman nobles are very resentful of you, and they keep spreading your rumors around the city of Turii, and in order to get revenge on you, they must be deliberately approaching your child and using all means to win over him, Against the kingdom...you have paid a lot for the kingdom!

After listening to Davos' sincere words, Publius couldn't help but feel a heat in his heart. He wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything, and his eyes couldn't help turning red.

Davos said sternly: Dionysus must not let officials who sincerely contribute to the kingdom sweat and cry, let alone let the tricks of these gangsters succeed. So I decided that you and Aristillas will be responsible for this time. The incident. As for Lenturus... he is still a child, what does he know? As long as he tells the truth about all the people who instructed him, this matter will be forgiven. But ah... in the future, you have to strengthen the education of children You can’t patronize and do things for the kingdom, but your family doesn’t take good care of it, that’s not okay, our Dionysian tradition is that the family is the cornerstone of the kingdom, and every family is stable, and the kingdom will naturally be stable!”
