"Dear women, what are you doing?" Seeing this scene, Young Caesar felt dissatisfied at first, but he had to suppress his emotions, especially when he saw his adoptive mother in the crowd, he immediately left the office He walked down from the seat, walked forward with respectful steps, bowed to her, and kissed the back of Corpunya's hand. ,

"I came here because the demands of women were ignored by you." Corpunya smiled with some cold dissatisfaction.

"Perhaps I can listen to you, if you are willing, adoptive mother." Young Caesar was not a reckless man like Anthony, so he put on a humble tone. He began to explore what the bottom line of this group of women was and what the tax was. Determined to collect.

"I have to ask where the other three are, because I heard that the current affairs of the Republic require four people to sign together to take effect." He Tingxiuya asked next to him.

Caesar adjusted the somewhat loose robes of the aristocrat and replied, "My guardian Lepidus is supervising the military camps inside and outside the city. His Excellency the consul Panza is recuperating at his own home. My father Antony is renovating the palace of Bergalon." Pompeii’s old house.”

"Are you busy with any serious business? You are the only young man sitting in this court representing the holy country." Fabilia said angrily, and then she asked whether the current legion still patrols, and the alien cavalry commander still Don't know where you slipped away? Pansa and my old husband also insist on boxing and swimming on weekdays. It’s a good friend from the gym. What kind of disease will happen? And that guy Anthony. He completely regards the luxurious garden industry as his own. I think that when General Pompey settled on the outskirts of Rome for so many years, he never did anything to disturb the people, but now his current house is occupied by gluttons like Anthony. In the past, when Pompey was in the palace, he received foreign envoys and outstanding noble people from his own country every day. Now Antony was there, and he received actors, prostitutes and flattering brokers every day.

Fabilia became more and more passionate as she spoke. This made Caesar unhappy. He said to the women, "Sorry, I am always dealing with official affairs related to the country in this court. If there is a complaint, then please ask the eloquent person in front of me. If Ms. Jue submits her complaint in separate items, I will ask the clerk to record it properly and submit it to the ten-member committee for collective decision-making.”

Originally, he thought that this sentence could stop Fabilia's mouth, but who would have thought that this lady would immediately say, "Originally, we women should not go into the court and show our faces. According to women of our status, , I originally went to the boudoir of your respective families a few days ago to ask for their help. Your sister and mother, as well as your fiancée who is still in the Lepidus family, are all well-informed and reasonable people, and they are asking for our appeal. I must have conveyed it to you, may I ask your Excellency, young Chief Minister, is this true?"

As she spoke, Fabilia raised her snow-white neck high. Her bright language and elegant and aggressive attitude immediately aroused applause from people present and outside. Even young Caesar was attracted by her temperament. There was nothing to say to interrupt him at the moment.

At this time, a group of black soldiers came with bows and arrows and machetes on their backs, shouting slogans, and the crowd gave way. Then, among the flags and flags and the retinue, Lepidah, who was riding a horse with a mischievous smile, came to the court in the courtyard. He stopped and dismounted to see what wonderful drama was going on inside.

"Yes, my sister has informed me of this matter, but I don't think this matter should be submitted to the Ten-member Committee for discussion, because it has not yet risen to this level. Ladies, the execution order is about to be announced. is over, and the war against the murderer's army has not yet begun, this taxation is necessary for the country, and we do not ask for your understanding, but the plan must be carried out." Young Caesar's reply provoked a lot of boos, and then he. The servants were also asked to drive away the troublemaking women, of course to avoid a few difficult figures. As a result, many women became furious and began to scratch the servants' faces destructively, which soon left many people dripping with blood.

"It's the same thing again. Do you know why we come to court? It's because we were humiliated and treated inappropriately by Fulivia, Antony's wife. You people have deprived us of our father. If your brothers, our husbands, and our sons want to deprive us of our dowries and property, then declare us public enemies!" Fabilia also took the opportunity to shout in front of Young Caesar.

"Dear Madam, it seems that you have gained the true meaning of your husband. I heard that you were a restless girl during your college career." At this time, Lepidah walked in from the side corridor wearing a military uniform and laughing loudly. , "You actually accuse me of wandering around in the military camp all the time when I have nothing to do. You must know that I have gone through so much hardship just for your consideration. God knows what my group of people will do to you delicate people without restraint, so everyone You all should go back, and don’t say any angry words about being listed on the public enemy list. It is inappropriate to say this in this court. Haven’t you seen enough cruel scenes these days?”

"Bah, bah, bah." As a result, Lepidus' kind words were exchanged for saliva like a rain of arrows. Medjet's guards hurriedly raised their shields to protect the consul. As a result, many ladies shouted, He uncovered his naked upper body and advanced towards the guards boldly. The young soldiers of the guards were so frightened that they all stepped back. The whole hall of the palace has turned into a stage for women.

"Let me solve this difficult problem!" Hybrida, who had not yet taken off her helmet, angrily stepped forward to use her flesh and blood body to block all dangers, but was stopped by Lepidus. The consul graciously He said to Fabilia, "Everyone, please restrain yourself. Young Caesar and I can listen to this lady's speech and then make a decision."

Then, the scene finally calmed down, everyone was talking, Lepidus took off his military uniform, and Matthias the young man put him into the consul's white robe with red borders. Then he sat on the second seat and did what he did to young Caesar. This is an invitation gesture, indicating that you are the chief clerk and should sit in the central seat.

The other legal officers were almost slaughtered, so there were not many other people on the entire trial bench. Instead, they were filled with soldiers and weapons. The women there also moved forward to compete with the men who represented law and violence. .

"Please tell me, my dear lady." Young Caesar cleared his throat and demanded.

"I ask for a water meter and a clerk. These are what you promised just now." Fabilia did not show any stage fright. (To be continued...)
