Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Every time Caesar came to Rome, he felt that Rome became more dilapidated.  .This may be because the Romans have always respected their ancestors and cherished ancient buildings.  We cannot bear to destroy or even demolish these historic monuments just because they no longer have a practical function.  The architecture of Rome was mixed in people's eyes. At that time, because Rome occupied such a vast area, it was impossible for her to be as picky as a decent and charming woman in every detail. If she had to use a  To describe the city of Rome metaphorically, she is indeed like a princess in distress: although her body is dirty and mutilated, and she wears rags, the unique temperament and charm of a king can be discerned from her body.  Early in the morning, the people of Rome consciously went to the streets to appreciate the style of the leader of the Julius family from the north.  Under the escort of the heavy cavalry guard of the Gallic Legion, Caesar entered the city of Rome through the Porta Capona.  Today, Caesar is more radiant and energetic than ever before.  He rode on an agile, strong, and majestic black Persian war horse, and wore his own glorious high priest's robe with waist sleeves sewn alternately with purple and crimson stripes.  Under the cheers of the people and the sky full of flower petals, they marched towards the Roman Forum.  People shouted Caesar's name and paid homage to him.  His face was full of respect and admiration, showing the highest respect for his great contribution to Rome.  Caesar was resolute, with a faint confident smile on his angular face.  He frequently waved to the Roman people on both sides of the road to thank them for welcoming him.  Next to Feravis, on a horse that was also a high-quality Persian horse, sat Antony, who was 21 years old this year but was already the commander of the Roman legion.  He was tall and handsome. His short cloak was wrapped around the gold chain around his neck. One side of the cloak was blown behind him by the wind, revealing the same scarlet lining as his tunic. His breastplate and shoulders were  The shoulder armor gleamed.  The silver helmet was decorated with ostrich feathers dyed red.  His broad forehead, tall nose, deep blue eyes and sensual lips made all the women in Rome excited when they saw him for the first time, shouting and throwing petals at him without hesitation.  .  Antony sat on the horse, looking far ahead with firm eyes, not moved by the woman's scream at all. This made the girls in Rome intoxicated and unable to stop, and also made him look more heroic.  On the broad and tall marble steps in front of the Great Hall of Amelia in the north of the Grand Forum, all the members of the Senate, led by the two consuls of the Roman Republic, Pompey and Massentius, were waiting there early.  With Caesar's arrival, the square was also filled with nobles and merchants from Rome and nearby towns. The cheers of the crowd reached their peak when Caesar arrived in front of the Amelia Assembly Hall.  Pompeii knew that Caesar, who had always been low-key, did not wear armor today but wore a gorgeous high priest's robe on purpose to show him. This was to let him know clearly that the Julius family had a sacred and inviolable status in Rome.  Have any unrealistic or malicious ideas about this fact.  "Caesar, my dear comrade, I haven't seen you for five years, but you are still so healthy and energetic." Pompeo actively opened his arms to greet Feravis who was walking up the steps.  The two hugged each other affectionately on the steps and looked at each other. Thirty years ago, the two men had fought side by side against Sparta's treachery on the Greek Peninsula.  If you put aside the complicated disputes of factional interests, the personal friendship between the two people is still very strong.  Pompeo then introduced the members of the House of Representatives to Felavius ??one by one. Compared with the bright and heartfelt smiles on the faces of the Roman people, the smiles on the faces of the House of Representatives seemed somewhat ulterior and insincere.  Caesar's firm, formidable, penetrating eyes scanned the faces of the House of Representatives one by one.  Let these gentlemen, who usually enjoy themselves and live in luxury, not dare to look into the eyes of this experienced and decisive Roman legion commander.  After the grand welcome banquet, Pompey led Caesar to his private reception room in the Senate.  In addition to the warm sunlight coming in from the outdoors, numerous lights illuminated the room with splendor. Coupled with the dazzling decorations, gilded ceilings and golden eaves, Feilavis felt like he was in the most magnificent palace in the world.  As soon as he entered the Senate, Caesar was still a little hesitant. After all, this was Rome. Although his Gallic Legion was stationed outside the city, once something changed, these brave and capable soldiers would not be able to save themselves in a short time.  .  Therefore, he insisted on letting Antony and Yang Rui protect him by his side. Pompeii did not raise any objection to Caesar's request.  It seems that this important figure in Rome has no murderous intention towards Caesar yet.  After sitting down in the reception room, Pompey personally received a cup of calming scented tea, then handed it to Caesar and said with a smile: "How is it? Have you had enough of the horrible weather in Gaul and started to miss the gentle breeze and drizzle in Rome?" Caesar took it.Tea Cup smiled and said: "Not only the weather in Rome, but also the women here. They are all the objects of my nostalgia!" Pompeii smiled and said: "The banquet just now was just a formality. In the evening, at my home, I  I will prepare another grand banquet for you. By then, if there are many women, you will be the first to start." Caesar took a sip of the warm and sweet Ningshen scented tea, and said with a smile on his lips: "That would be great, Gaul.  Women are indeed not as gentle and charming as Roman women." Pompeii sat across from Caesar, looked at his old friend with a smile and said, "However, before the banquet begins in the evening, I still have something to discuss with you.  "Caesar glanced at Yang Rui and Anthony standing at the door, feeling wary, but his expression remained calm. He asked calmly: "What do you want to discuss with me?" Pompeii was silent for a while.  He opened his mouth and said: "Your twenty Gallic legions are stationed outside the city. The Senate wants to know what your purpose is?" Caesar had long expected that Pompey would ask this, so he smiled and said: "That's mine.  The army can be stationed wherever I want. "That's the army of the Republic!" Pompey's face became serious and his tone became much louder. He reminded Caesar: "This is the army of the Republic for hundreds of years."  An indestructible law. No one can break it, and the army cannot belong to any individual! You have committed a crime by not surrendering the military power before crossing the Rubicon, and the herald of the Senate is also alive and dead, I hope.  Can you give me a reasonable explanation?" Having said this, the atmosphere in the room was a bit tense. Anthony at the door had already held his big hand tightly on the hilt of his sword, as if he was about to pull out his dagger and kill Pompeii at any time.  Yang Rui smiled and made no move, just looking at the two Roman dignitaries in the room quietly.  To be continued.  )
