Chapter 339
Chapter 338 conspiracy
The only thing that can stop them is the Citizens’ Assembly, but this time Pompeo and Li Wei returned with a big victory.
Thinking of this, he didn’t even have the desire to eat, so he pushed the meal aside.
“Father, we must not let them succeed. If this goes on, Li Wei’s power will grow stronger and stronger.”
Keller said.
Hearing Li Wei’s name, a ray of hatred flashed in the eyes of a teenager sitting next to him.
He is Scipio Metlus, his grandfather and father died at the hands of Li Wei, he and Li Wei are truly inconsistent.
“Then what can you do?”
Metelus said with a sullen face.
“We must find a way to break up the alliance of the Big Three.”
Keller said.
“How to dismantle?”
Mettrus asked.
“I think we can start with Pompeo. He has been away from Rome for many years and does not understand the changes in Rome over the years. If he knows, he will be very wary of Li Wei. At that time, we can support Pompey and even Crassou and Li. Wei got it right.”
Keller said.
“You make sense. Pompeo is a very proud man. He will not be willing to be held down by Li Wei. But you don’t know one thing. Yesterday the three of them deliberately married each other.”
Metelus said with a gloomy face.
“What are you talking about? They actually plan to get married?”
Kyler couldn’t help being surprised.
“Yes, but Li Wei did not agree. He said that he would let the children fall in love freely, but neither Pompeo nor Crassou planned to give up.
Metelus said.
He felt very fortunate at this time, but fortunately, Li Wei did not agree, otherwise they would have no chance.
“We must not let them marry! We must find a way to break the marriage between them!”
Kyler exclaimed.
“You are right. Once they get married, Rome will be their world.”
Metelous’s face showed a solemn look.
“Publius Crasu and I are good friends, I am afraid he will not agree to marry Portia.”
At this time, Scipio Metellus said suddenly.
“Why?”
Mettrus asked.
Scipio Mettrus and Publius are similar in age, just a few years older than him, maybe he can make some special comments.
“Publius attaches great importance to blood. Portia is only the daughter of a slave. He will not agree to marry a slave’s daughter, even if her father is Livi.”
Scipio said.
Hearing this, both Metluth and Keller’s eyes brightened.
“Really, this is simply great.”
Metelus said with joy.
“We can tell Li Wei this sentence quietly, he will be very angry.”
Kyler laughed and said.
“That’s right, he will drive Publius out, and the relationship between him and Krasu will be over.”
Metelus’ eyes narrowed with a smile, like an old fox who stole a chicken.
“Little Pompeo has slept with a few female slaves a long time ago. This is what he told me personally.”
Scipio Metellus continued.
“Hahaha, this is great. I don’t believe that Li Wei knows this. He is still willing to marry his daughter to them.”
Metelus laughed happily.
“Scipio, you did a great job today.”
Kyle gave a thumbs up.
“It’s nothing, just know some news that you don’t know.”
Scipio said with a smile.
Mettrus and Keller discussed how to tell Li Wei the news to achieve the greatest effect. Listening to the conversation between the two, Scipio’s face showed a cheerful smile, and he was finally able to hurt Li Wei. Up.
“Although we can provoke the relationship between the three of them, the forces that suppress Li Wei still treat the symptoms and not the root cause. Only ten years later, Li Wei will have unparalleled influence.”
Scipio continued.
“Do you have any good ideas?”
Mettrus asked.
Scipio glanced at the slaves who were serving around him, “Go down first, and remember to look at the gate, so no one can eavesdrop.”
The slaves responded, and then they filed out.
“Only the death of Li Wei can end all this.”
Scipio whispered.
Metelus and Keller looked at Scipio with shocked faces. They didn’t expect that this young boy who had not yet grown up would say such things.
Metelus poured himself a glass of wine and was shocked, but his hands were shaking so badly that he spilled all over.
He wiped the red wine on his body awkwardly, and it took a long time to stabilize his emotions.
“Do you know what the consequences of this incident will be?”
Metelus said.
“I know, it’s nothing more than death.”
Scipio said.
“It’s not just you who will die, think about the fate of your family.”
Keller said.
Hearing this, Scipio couldn’t help clenching his fist.
Just because his grandfather had a trace of delusion about the method of making sugar, Li Wei sent someone to kill him.
Killing his own grandfather is not finished yet, he even killed his exiled father, it is really hateful.
“He is not a reasonable person. Once he thinks that you sent someone to assassinate him, whether it is true or not, he will definitely go all out to kill your whole family. I will treat this as if you haven’t said it. Come, let’s eat. .”
Metelus said.
“Assassination is beyond the rules of the game. For so many years, few people have assassinated political opponents.”
Kyler also said.
After talking about Metellus and Keller, they started to eat. Their reaction was completely beyond Scipio’s expectation. He had thought they would agree happily.
He thought for a long time, and finally said what he was holding back.
“Grandpa, those nobles who were exiled by Sura came to me.”
Scipio said.
Metelus stopped for a while, and then resumed eating.
“What can they do with you?”
“They hope to be able to return to Rome.”
Scipio said.
“Are you sure there are no rebels in Spain.”
Metelus said with a cold snort.
“Absolutely not! They said, as long as Grandpa can help them come back, they are willing to look only at you.”
Scipio said.
“This is difficult.”
Metelus said.
Whether it was him or the Roman Big Three, they were all Sura’s tribes back then. They had natural vigilance for these nobles who were exiled by Sura, not to mention that they were more or less involved in the Lepida Rebellion.
If it weren’t for their involvement with the Roman nobles too deeply, they would have been killed in the first place.
“Did they propose to assassinate Li Wei?”
Keller asked.
“Yes it is.”
Scipio said.
“You tell them that there is nothing I can do about this, they should think of other ways. Also, you’d better stay away from them, in case they do something crazy, don’t involve us.”
Metelus said.
Scipio’s face was sad, he didn’t expect that Mettrus and his son would not support his decision.
“Well, we have to go to the Senate. Keller, let’s go.”
After eating, Mettrus wiped his mouth and said.
“Ok.”
Keller said, and after speaking they left here.
Today is the day when the Senate convened to discuss Li Wei and Pompeo competing for consul in advance. They should not be late.
Looking at the back of the two people leaving, Scipio looked unwilling.
are really two cowards!
He thought for a while, then got up and left here, went down Palatine Hill alone, and came to an inconspicuous tavern in Sura District. At this time, there were only a few people in the tavern.
“Here is a bottle of beer!”
Scipio chose a table and sat down.
“Please wait.”
The eyes of the proprietress of the tavern lit up, and soon a slave girl put a bottle of beer on his table.
“Please enjoy.”
There was a pleasing smile on the face of the slave girl.
Scipio nodded, and drank a beer.
The beer tastes terrible, but Scipio still gobbles up a large glass of beer.
“Did they agree?”
Not long after, a middle-aged man with a big beard lowered his head and sat beside him.
He wore a woolen cloak full of sheep’s smell, which made Scipio’s nose very uncomfortable.
“No, they worry that your assassination failure will be implicated on them.”
Scipio said.
The middle-aged man couldn’t help but curled his lips. They were really careful.
“Can you kill Li Wei? As long as you don’t get involved with them, I believe they would love to see Li Wei die.”
Scipio said.
“Then what about our request?”
The middle-aged man raised his head and asked.
If the pirates who attacked Dragon City were there, they would definitely find that this middle-aged man was not their second boss, Relius?
At this time, his face is full of vicissitudes, just like a middle-aged uncle, how high-spirited he was.
“I promise I will try my best to convince them.”
Scipio said.
Relius shook his head, “You are too young, and your words don’t have any weight.”
“Just forget the enmity between you and Li Wei? How much property does his church occupy, and how much land does Li Wei live in. The villa is still yours.”
Scipio said angrily.
Relius glanced at him faintly, “You don’t have to irritate me. We won’t take action until we can’t see the benefits. After these years of wandering, many people’s revenge thoughts have faded. They just want to Come back home.”
Come back home?
Scipio gave him a startled look, how could they do that? Isn’t the hatred between them and Li Wei as deep as the sea?
“I still said that if we agree to our terms, we can assassinate Li Wei. If we don’t agree, we won’t mess with him. If you change your mind, you can come here to find the boss, and she can contact me. ”
After talking about Relius, he left here.
“Assholes! All cowards! Cowards!”
Scipio couldn’t help cursing, and his young and handsome face turned hideous with anger.
The proprietress gave him a faint look, and then ignored him.

In Crasu’s villa, the Crasu’s family of four are having a meal.
A glamorous lady personally feeds a four or five-year-old child. She has a golden wig and a very plump body. She has a pair of light gray eyes full of love. It is Krasu’s wife, Korne. Leah.
Publius sat at the bottom of Crassus. A few years later, he had become a handsome boy.
“By the way, Publius, I’ll tell you one thing. You and I will go to the Vatican tomorrow. It’s best to dress nicely.”
Krasu said.
“Is there a problem?”
Publius asked.
“I’m going to tell you a marriage, what do you think of Portia?”
Krasu asked.
“Posia? Li Wei’s daughter?”
Publius frowned and said.
“Yes, what do you think? I discussed with your mother yesterday, and she agreed with it.”
Krasu said.
“Why is Portia, her mother is a slave, and her blood is full of slave blood. I will not marry her.”
Publius said.
Krasu was stunned, “What did you say? You don’t want to marry Portia?”
He tried to get Li Wei to give him a chance, but he didn’t expect to eat a turtle in front of his children.
“Yes, Li Wei is a great Roman general, and I admire him very much, but I will never marry a descendant of a slave.”
Publius said.
Looking at the proud look of Publius, Krasu was really angry.
“Do you know how much I paid for this incident? What happened to the descendants of slaves? Little Cato is also the descendants of slaves, and he is also respected by people. What’s more, her father is Li Wei!”
“Now I can still have a little influence in Rome, but what about twenty years later? By then, Li Wei’s influence will far exceed me! I’m doing this for your good!”
Krasu said angrily.
“I don’t need you to be good for me.”
Publius said.
“Okay, it seems that I was too spoiled with you before, and I didn’t even listen to my words.”
Krasu was really furious.
He was about to take something to beat Publius when he finished, but Cornelia stopped him.
“Krasu, he is still young and not very sensible Let me talk to him.”
Cornelia said.
“Well, now I’m going to the Senate for a meeting. But I tell you, you have to do this, and you have to do it if you don’t. If you can’t do it well, I will give all of my property to Tibi. Slightly, I won’t leave you a penny.”
Krasu said bitterly.
Hearing this, Publius couldn’t help being surprised. He looked at his brother who was eating next to him.
Tiberius still didn’t understand what it meant, and gave him a happy smile.
How can this be?
Krasu can have a huge influence thanks to his property, if there is no such property, then his future will be over.
Thinking of this, Publius’s face became uncertain.

Inside the Vatican, Li Wei looked at the teenagers in front of him with a majestic expression.
These two little boys and four little girls, the two little boys are the little Pompeii and Publius Krasu, and the four little girls are their nieces.
“Good uncle.”
several teenagers said respectfully.
“Ok.”
Li Wei said with a cold snort from his nostrils.
At this time, his complexion is quite unkind, and it is really outrageous to fall in love at such a young age.
