Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece - Chapter 591
[Chapter 10 Laodicien]
Asisters looked at his aunt, who was a dozen years younger than him, and spoke to him with an apologetic expression. Although he had a problem with Laodice, he still felt that Antonio had chosen this wife for Doreen. It was very good, so he said politely: “How can I be angry with my uncle, it’s just that it’s a little late, we should go home too, we’ll come back another day.”
After that, he said meaningfully to Antonios. He said, “Uncle, think about what I said just now.”
As soon as Antonio snorted, Doreen punched him lightly, swallowing all the words that followed.
After sending the Asistes family away, Doreen said angrily to Antonios: “What happened? You are so angry.”
“This is business, don’t ask any more questions. “Antonios said angrily.
“Okay, I won’t ask! Don’t talk to me in the future!” Doreen pouted angrily.
“Okay, okay, I was wrong…” The kingdom’s minister of military affairs, Antonios, who was in his 50s, hurriedly hugged Doreen in his arms, and apologized repeatedly: “Asisters doesn’t agree with me choosing him as Nack. Chief Executive of Soth, and it turned out… a quarrel.”
“Why? Isn’t it bad to be Chief Executive of Naxos?” Doreen wondered.
“Who knows what he thinks. Yaxi now has hard wings and doesn’t want to listen to my uncle!” Antonios said a little angrily.
“Anyway, he’s your only nephew.” Doreen stretched out her hand, stroked Antonios’ bearded face, and gave a light kiss, her eyes showing a charming look: “Antetoris is running and dancing tonight, Yuna can easily coax him to sleep in a while, I’ll take a shower and wait for you in the room…”
“Okay, okay…” Being seduced by his wife, the fire in Antonios’ heart became even more intense.
Doreen married him at the age of 17, more than 20 years younger than him, not only beautiful, but also virtuous, and gave birth to a son for him, so Antonios who always felt that he was too old and felt guilty. He is very fond of her, and therefore loves Wu and Wu, and takes great care of his father, Laodicien, and his family.
Seeing his wife’s slender figure walking towards the main building, he couldn’t wait.
“Antonios! Antonios! Something’s happened! Something’s happened!…” At this moment, Laodicien shouted eagerly from the corridor.
In Anton Rios’s mansion, Laodician has always been as comfortable as his own home. Antonios’s interest was interrupted, and
he was not easy to get angry with Doreen’s father. Laodyssian said: “What happened again?!” The
anxious Laodyssian did not notice the strangeness of Antonios, and said loudly: “Paphogres is locked up in Naxos! Stron Polly never released him!”
“What happened to Paphogres again?!” Antonios immediately frowned and asked impatiently.
In Doreen’s family, he has the least affection for Paphogres. You must know that when he was in Turii, this libertine actually harassed Alexis’ daughter Gitia, and the result was a good deal. big storm.
In order to prevent Alexis from pursuing this scandal to his death, Antonios spent many years of comrade-in-arms begging the other side for forgiveness. In the end, Paphograss narrowly escaped with a lighter sentence of four months in prison and a fine.
What’s wrong with this bastard this time?
!
To let Stromboli hold on to him?
!
Antonios was disturbed.
“What’s wrong with Paphogres?” Doreen’s voice came from behind Antonios.
Seeing the appearance of his daughter, Laodician immediately changed the person he spoke to: “Doreen, your brother has been wrongly accused and is in prison, and his life is in danger!…”
Laodician told his daughter what happened, of course In his account it was the slaves, not Paphogres, who killed the slave girls and the freemen’s daughters.
“A slave dares to kill the female slaves in the family frequently?! Do you really think that everyone is a fool!” Antonios shouted at Laodician: “You should have listened to me at the beginning, let him shut up for two or three years, be good The lessons learned from the past will not fall to the point where they are today!”
Laodician had never seen such a big fire from Antonios, and subconsciously avoided his eyes and said to Doreen: “I am not in Naxos, I don’t understand What is the specific situation, this is what Antrus wrote to tell me, but even if the man was killed by Paphogres, but now that slave has also taken the initiative to confess his guilt, and the deaths were just female slaves, There’s no need for Stromboli to be so serious! Could it be that just because of this matter, he would betray Paphogres to death!”
Having said this, Laodyssian saw that Antonios was still cold and soft. He cried in a low voice: “I know Paphograss is not up to par, but I only have one son of him, he is not married, let alone has children, if the death sentence is really sentenced, our family’s bloodline will be broken! Do you have the heart to see me faceless to see your grandfather in hell after my death, Doreen!…”
Doreen was shocked at how cruelly her brother killed so many people, but her father’s begging continued. She couldn’t bear it, she didn’t know what to do for a while, so she could only look at Antonios for help.
When Antonio saw his beloved wife’s eyes, his heart softened. He kicked a fragment of a clay pot from the ground into the pool in the center of the courtyard, then put his hands on his hips and said to Laodicien, “I don’t know the details of the law. I understand, how do you want to save that bastard, let me hear it.”
Seeing Antonio’s tone loose, Laodician hurriedly said: “The Dionysian Code does not say that citizens who kill their slaves will be sentenced to death. The death penalty’ clause, and the freedman has withdrawn the report, and the slave has taken the initiative to plead guilty, the case can be closed by reason, but the Naxos Police Station dragged the case to the court, and detained Pafog. Reese’s time has already exceeded the time limit, it’s all against the law!Antonios, you just need to speak to the highest judge Terry Todmos, let him speak to Stromboli, and get this sooner The case can be handed over to the court… It is inherently wrong for the magistrate to interfere in court affairs!”
Why didn’t Laodyssian tell Terry Todemus directly, because although he has made many friends in Turiyi with his financial resources in recent years, there are several social circles who don’t pay much attention to him.
The elders of Amendolara were always known for being conservative and arrogant, and they were often proud of the ‘earliest alliance elders’, and they were not used to the slick style of the latecomer Laodician.
Most of the elders of Lucania have always only cared about the affairs of Lucania. They had close contacts with the former mercenary elders, but they did not like to communicate with the elders of other regions, especially with the elders of Sicily, because they belonged to the kingdom. One south and one north of the territory, there is no interest involved at all, and there is very little contact.
Hermon was an exception, but the patriarch, famous for marrying his daughter, fell out with Laodyssian because Paphogres had courted his youngest daughter.
There are also the elders of Turui. These elders who came from the center of the kingdom are also known for their aloofness. In the case of Polyxis, most of the elders of Turui were swept into prison, and the remaining and backward elders were also allowed to act. Be more cautious, not only with the elders of Sicily, but also with the elders of other regions, and there is not much private contact.
The former mercenary veteran is the savior of the former Amendolara, and has been with the Amendolara for the longest time. Because of the large-scale marriage of the year, Amendolara also has a close relationship between the two sides. That’s why Laodician wants Antonios to come forward, persuade Terry Todemus, and intercede with Stromboli. Both are from Amendorara, and Stromboli should give him this. Face…that’s a beautiful idea from Laodicien.
“Terry Todmus…” Antonios muttered the name thoughtfully: indeed, compared to the more conservative and stubborn Stromboli, Terry Todmus speaks better. Protesilus was the first to get close to the mercenaries.

Speaking of which, Terry Todmos has been sitting on the top judge for more than a decade.
This is not because of his credit for the original trial of Polyxis, but an act proposed by King Davos nine years ago and passed by the Senate, which stipulated that the need for extreme The high-level professional knowledge of the kingdom’s public office must be held by specially trained citizens, and through long-term work practice, it will be gradually promoted, and no other public officials may take it midway.
This determines that Terry Todmos will remain in this position until retirement, because according to Dionysian law: citizens after the age of 65, because of old age, will not be allowed to hold any specific kingdom. Public office, of course, the elders are still elders.
When the bill was first proposed by Davers, it passed without much dissent, because there are not many people who can live to 60 years old in this era.
Since the public office of the “highest judge” is only the “grand justice”, which is concurrently held by the king of the kingdom, so some time ago, someone in the senate asked whether to add more “highest judges”, because The territory of the kingdom has expanded and the population has increased sharply. Of course, the number of illegal and criminal incidents has also increased. There are also cases that require immediate review and judgment of serious cases by Terry Todmos, and he is a little too busy.
In this regard, even Terry Todmos himself agrees, this matter is still brewing.
