Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece - Chapter 619

[Chapter 38 The Interrogation of Laodicien]

Turii’s narrow victory over Kopsa can also be said to be because the Downey War siphoned away many excellent rugby players from the First Corps, while Ugentum’s victory over Udier was completely unexpected by the public, and was invited to come here. Abenirum’s defeat of Picocis shocked many people’s jaws. Lijim, who has always been regarded as a soft-footed shrimp, actually killed Naxos… This year’s game situation is confusing, even veteran fans are big I can’t understand.

When the public’s attention was attracted by the exciting game, the Senate held several emergency meetings within two days.

First of all, several Sicilian elders led by Laodician and Lacey Peratus protested that “Naxos administrator Miron and Catane administrator Cypros ignored the laws of Dionia and sent people to forcibly enter. Entering their homes and wantonly searching for items”, the Senate demanded that the Senate immediately send people to stop the crazy practices of these two people and dismiss them from their positions.

Their proposal was opposed by the unreasonable elders headed by Stromboli and some elders headed by Lysias from the former South Italian League city-states.

At this time, Miron’s search operation has been launched. After getting the hint from Davos, Stromboli no longer needs to keep secrets, so he faced the elders in the venue and loudly said “his last time in Naxos. During his tenure, because his subordinates were investigating homicides, the slave who voluntarily surrendered himself revealed another secret thing after interrogation.”

The elders, who had originally felt that this matter in Sicily was strange and inquired about the news, were suddenly in an uproar.

Laodyssian and the others denied it, and the accusation was “Stromboli is framing!” The

two sides argued endlessly, but they obviously felt that the elders of Sicily were a little panicked.

The day’s meeting ultimately yielded no results.

After the meeting, Laodisian, Lacey Peratus and others tried to explain to Davos face to face, but Davos refused to meet them on the grounds that he was “tired and needed rest”.

Laodicien turned to his son-in-law for help.

However, Antonios, who has been idle at home on the grounds of “recovering from illness”, has heard what happened in Sicily and remembered the reminder that King Davos reminded him that day. Although his wife begged, he finally hardened his heart and did not open the door. .

Laodician and others were helpless, and could only ask other elders who were usually good friends for help.

But these senators are not fools. In the past, they made friends with Sicilian senators such as Laodician for their own interests or through Laodician and asked for Antonios, but now everyone can see that Miron and Sipe Loss was

hunting in Sicily,

and even the senior judge Terry Todmos rushed over. Without the instructions of King Davos, who would believe it!

Of course, these people avoided Laodicien and others.

Laodician, who used to be flamboyant in the past, has long had no intention to scold these people for their ruthlessness. He already felt a strong unease. His rare secret confidant, who used to be flamboyant and carefree, sent a lawyer who was proficient in law to invite a lawyer who was proficient in law. It’s very likely that his past practices would have made him “Polyxis Second” without a good night’s sleep.

The next day, the meeting of the Senate continued to be held. The mental state of these elders in Sicily was not very good, and the next two letters from Sicily made their hands and feet even colder.

Miron and Cypros said in their respective letters: They found in the Sicilian mansions of the elders such as Laodician, Lacey Peratus, etc., that Arconis, the leader of the Sikeltanikan tribe, had bribed them, I hope they have a lot of evidence to speak for the Tanikian tribe in the Senate, and at the same time, there are many slaves who have identified them. In Tanikian’s territory, there is still a lot of land for these elders. The Sikaer slaves are responsible for farming and harvesting. Sometimes their henchmen will go to the Xikel Mountains and ship them back one by one…

After reading the letter, the elders were surprised.

Some of the elders suddenly said: I usually see Laodician and Lacey Peratus often holding banquets, and they are quite rich. It turns out that this is how money comes from!

Laodisian and others shouted injustice, saying that Miron and Cypros were framing them!

However, the Senate finally passed the “temporary suspension of Laodician, Lacey Peratus, Ikadas and other elders, and after Terry Todemus escorted a large amount of evidence and returned to Turii, trial” proposal.

…………………………

“Your Majesty, Lord Antonius, unable to withstand his wife’s pleading, sent someone to intercede for Laodyssian, but he did not come to you, but sent someone to Look for Lord Cornelus. Lord Cornelus did not accept his request, but recommended Lord Kunogorata to him.” The court herald Aristillas reported to King Davos: “It is reported that Lord Kunogorata did not refuse, but let Antonios’ confidant slave enter the house. It didn’t take long for the slave to take a letter, go out of the house, and go directly to Dionia Academy… ”

This Antonios is really confused! Let him stay at home, he won’t listen to the advice, Kunogolata is recuperating at home, he will also bother!” Davers looked indignant, and then he again With a little curiosity, he asked: “What did Kunogolata ask him to go to Dionysian Academy? Could it be… looking for Lysias?”

“Your Majesty, the slave of Lord Antonios is going to invite Lysias. Lawyers for Laodicien,” said Aristillas.

Davos raised his eyebrows slightly: “Lysias agrees?”

“It should be agreed. The report said that when Antonio’s slave came out of the academy, he looked a little excited.”

Davers tapped the table with his fingers .

, said slowly: “…It’s good that Lucias can defend in court. This should be the first time for Lysias to serve as a court lawyer, right?”

“Yes, Your Majesty. I heard that he passed the court exam and got a lawyer. Eligible for several years, has not appeared in court,” Aristillas said.

“Okay, then we can take a look at the wonderful performance of Lycias, who is known as the ‘best rhetoric and debater in the kingdom’. The truth is always clearer and clearer. Dionia will not punish and suppress at will. Elders and officials, everything is in accordance with the law. But… Lysias wants to completely exonerate Laodysian and the others, I am afraid it will be very difficult.”

Hearing this, Aristillas quickly observed Davos’ expression and found that he was relaxed and didn’t seem to care much about it.

Of course, Davos would not care too much. His goal has been achieved. Laodician and other Sicilian elders accepted bribes and sold the interests of the kingdom. Of course, it is impossible to get rid of the crime completely. It doesn’t mean much, but this incident allowed Davos to purify the Sicilian forces in the Senate, rectify the administration of the towns in Sicily, and more importantly, gain the opportunity to intervene in the living areas of the Sikel people.

Davos looked at Aristillas.

Aristillas quickly lowered his head.

“Has Gellney, the leader of Abenirum, arrived?” Davos asked after changing the conversation.

“On the way here.”

“Look at what bad news this Samonite has brought me?” Davos said this, his expression still relaxed.

………………………………

Lycias, led by the slave, came to Kunogolata’s bedroom.

Kunogolata, a man of great importance in Great Greece in the past, and the most important senator of the Kingdom of Dionia, was lying on the bed, his face flushed, his breathing was short, and he looked like he was dying.

Lycias sat down gently beside the wooden chair next to him, as if the louder sound would aggravate Kunogorata’s condition.

Kunogolata opened a pair of cloudy eyes, looked at him, and said weakly: “I was thinking just now…cough…will you come…you are here.”

“How is your body? Like?” Lucia asked with concern.

“I won’t die for a while…” Kunogolata looked calm, slowly put his left hand on his chest, and said in a flat tone: “Helps… I have come here many times… Said that I have been here all the time. Affected by the… trauma caused by the incident more than ten years ago (referring to the expulsion of his family by the old Tuli people)…cough…now unable to function normally…cough .”

“Then you should rest well and stop talking.” Lycias felt uncomfortable when he heard him coughing all the time. He stood up and said, “I’ll go back first, and I’ll see you later.”

“Next time…you may not be You can see me.” Kunogorata forced a smile and asked, “You…cough…want to ask me…why do you want you to defend…they?”

Lycias looked at With his black-red and dull face, UU Reading www.sonicmtl.com nodded sadly.

“Lysias…I know your abilities very well…Unfortunately, as soon as you came back…cough…he entered the academy…except for the students…knowing your talent…many people of the kingdom…even I don’t know…the carols of every celebration…cough…cough…you wrote it…it’s time to show your talents to the citizens…to the elders…to your majesty…”

Kunogora Ta’s words made Lysias’s heart surge. He calmed down a bit, but couldn’t help but ask: “Is it just for me?”

“Of course it’s more than that…cough cough…” Kunogolata coughed violently When he got up, the female slave beside the bed hurriedly helped him sit up, beat him on the back, and put a clean cloth to his mouth.

When Lycias saw that the thick sputum that Kunogolata spit on the cloth was bloody, he couldn’t help but secretly panicked.

The pain on Kunogolata’s face, which was spitting out, seemed to be relieved a lot. He leaned against the head of the bed and said softly, “Although Laodyssian and the others have made mistakes… I hope that they will not be punished too much… Kingdom The rule in Sicily is not yet stable…hope not to cause disgust among the Sicilian people…to cause unrest…and…”
