48 Hours a Day

Conmood, the emperor of the Roman Empire, was the one who spoke, so Satonylos could not disobey the orders of the other, looked at Zhang Heng with a dim eye, and could not help but return to where he had stood.

Satonylos could feel that Conmood, though mediating, was obviously more inclined towards Zhang Heng, but he was not an idiot, and quickly figured out why, just at the last moment of the confrontation, Zhang Heng made a knife position and crossed his neck. If the other hand held a knife or sword, there was no doubt that he was now a corpse.

But it has to be said that there is a coincidence in this way, because after all, the two men are now only fighting empty-handed, and Satonylos naturally will not guard against the sword. Although Zhang Heng could have caused him more serious harm if he did not do so, after all, it is difficult to be fatal, and the two will have to fight after that.

And now he ate a dumb loss, can't say bitterly, but Zhang Heng's side succeeded in reversing his first impression. From the time before, he felt a little reckless, to now, he felt that he was brave and good, and that he was able to forgive people, it was a rare quality, not to mention the other side was just a gladiator.

So after the battle, Kang Maud also shot Zhang Heng's shoulder, "Your name is Zhang Heng, right? I heard you're from the far east, that silk-rich ancient empire, well played. I took your name down. I look forward to your performance in the arena later. ”

“As you wish, my lord.” Zhang Hengdao.

Kang Maud seemed to have something else to say, but hesitated to say it in the end, and after witnessing a tense and exciting battle, he also seemed satisfied. Later, after hearing the introduction of the new gladiators, he was somewhat distracted and lacked.

Diocha sensed his reaction, waved his hand and withdrew all the other gladiator school owners.

“I got desserts and fruits ready, and a bunch of great dancers...”

“Oh," the young emperor said, picking his eyebrows, "I've been out for a while now, thank you for your hospitality, and Crispina is not too comfortable tonight, I think we should take a walk. ”

“Of course," Diodore said, "the Queen's body is the most important.” As he spoke, he personally sent Conmood and Krispina out of the door, and then he stood at the door with the young emperor and chatted privately.

Zhang Heng tried to put his ears up, but because of the distance, no one could hear what they were talking about.

But just in the next moment, another slightly dull and lazy voice rang from his ear, "Oh, so you were the Orientalist who gained Victor's reputation in the arena the other day? ”

Zhang Heng looked up and saw a woman, she was about thirty years old, but the skin was well maintained, like the teenage girl of this era, had a slightly fat baby face, giving her a sense of innocence. However, the occasional ruthless look in her eyes and slightly curly lips showed that she had an extraordinary position, as can be seen from the attitude of other female guests towards her.

The other guests were basically standing next to her and Queen Crispina while watching the war.

She wore a very thin metal mesh over her head, and her hair was raised, and there was nothing else on her except this metal mesh and the wedding ring on her right hand.

Zhang Heng probably guessed the identity of the other party, some headaches, he didn't really want to have anything to do with the person in front of him.

However, contrary to his wishes, the other party saw him silently but did not leave. Instead, he put his face together. Her body smelled like a rose petal, and the hot air coming out of her mouth touched Zhang Heng's ear. “Oh, do you think everyone else is stupid? I can't see your thoughts. Tell me, Oriental, what exactly is your purpose in approaching my brother? Be careful, don't lie, or I'll ask the guards to drag you straight out and behead you. You know who I am, right? Then you should know I'm not just trying to scare you. ”

Zhang Heng was helpless, and for this reason he could only say, “Yes, Dear Augusta. ”

Standing before Zhang Heng is now the most noble woman in the entire Roman Empire, Olerio's eldest daughter, Lucilla, the sister of Conmood, and the only woman to have the title of Augusta since the death of her mother.

The title Augusta corresponds to that of Augusta, roughly equivalent to that of Queen, which is also the highest title available to women throughout the Roman Empire.

Lucilla was the wife of Lucius when she received the title, and Rome was in an era of coexistence between the latter and the Orello Emperor. But Lucius died soon after illness, and Orello arranged for Lucilla to marry Pompeanus.

There are rumours, however, that Lucilla was not very satisfied with the second marriage, and although her current husband was a powerful figure in the military, Lucilla's status could not be compared to that of her predecessor, the Emperor Lucius, who had been demoted from the Queen to the governor's wife, so that her title in Augusta could be preserved.

And she herself seemed to value the title. When Zhang Heng called her that, she finally had a smile on her face and her tone eased a little. “You haven't answered my question, gladiator. ”

“What do you think a gladiator wants most?” Zhang Heng questioned.

“Freedom?” Lucille raised her eyebrows, "All gladiators want freedom, but no, I don't think that's why you approached my brother. ”

Zhang Heng's eyelids jumped. He almost thought something was wrong with the old trainer, which led to his identity being leaked. Good thing Lucilla soon went on to say, “The people who came here tonight, regardless of the cost, had only one purpose,” she paused and spewed out two words slowly, “right. Admit it, you want more, more than freedom, you must have heard the story about my brother, hum, he always had some unrealistic expectations of the people at the bottom, and now neither of the two most trusted advisors around him is of noble origin. ”

“You have sharp eyes.” Zhang Hengshun admitted.

“No, I just have a nice nose that smells like someone who wants to climb up.” Lucilla is so angry, "but my brother is now surrounded by a lot of people, and you want rights and freedoms, maybe you can think of a different direction. ”
