He sat up, held his student Nero in his arms, and after thinking for a moment, he asked:
"Nero... Let me ask you again, what does the emperor mean to you?"
"..."
Although he didn't understand why his teacher suddenly used such a serious tone, Nero himself had been thinking about this issue for quite some time.
She lowered her eyebrows slightly, and after a moment of silence, she answered:
"If it was before, I think it was probably just to get everyone's attention."
"After all, if you become an emperor, no matter what you do, there will be people who care and pay attention to you."
"Now..."
The girl raised her head and looked at the man holding her with her green eyes full of affection.
"I want my teacher's reputation to spread as far as possible within Rome."
"In that case -- it would be considered as responding to the teacher's expectations of me, wouldn't it?"
"I...want you to become the greatest teacher in history!"
"Nero, you..."
Ian was touched by what he said, but Nero thought that his words did not satisfy him.
"Teacher, what's wrong with you? Is there something wrong with what I said?"
"..."
"Nothing." Ian shook his head, and then secretly made up his mind.
"Nero, you said it very well." The man's hand gently stroked Nero's head.
"Indeed, I also want to be as famous as the emperor - otherwise how can I justify all the efforts I have made during this period of time?"
"Hmm~ That's good!"
[You have once again confirmed Nero's determination. ]
[Knowing that she has made becoming the Roman emperor a mission, you decide to join Agrippina's plan.]
[You hid it from Nero and started a scheme that only the two of you knew about. ]
[The first thing to do is to divide the relationship between Agrippina's uncle Claudius and his wife Messalina. ]
In a dark alley in the Roman capital.
Agrippina, a magician, handed Ian the potion in a small glass bottle.
“Seneca.”
"This is the medicine I prepared. When you meet Messalina, just sprinkle it on a guard and it will arouse the lust in her heart."
"When she starts to feel overwhelmed, that's when we succeed, okay?"
"..."
Although he knew that this method was extremely despicable, for Nero's future, Ian finally nodded.
"I understand."
[This kind of thing is not suitable for Agrippina to do. ]
[Or should I say, her status is not suitable for frequent contact with her sister-in-law Messalina.]
[In comparison, as Nero's teacher, you also have a good reputation because of your previous speeches, so you are a better candidate. ]
[Of course, this is against your personal code of conduct.]
【But for Nero, you have to do this despicable thing. 】
【The plan went smoothly.】
【Agrippina's medicine was perfect.】
[Messalina, who was unable to resist it, soon cheated on one of her handsome guards.]
[After doing this many times, Agrippina seized the opportunity and brought her uncle Claudius to the scene of the affair. ]
[The current Roman emperor naturally could not accept such a thing - it was a great insult to the entire royal family.]
[He drew his sword on the spot and stabbed his wife Messalina and the daring guard to death.]
[In order to save his own face, Claudius did not announce the incident to the public, but lied that his wife Messalina died of a rare infectious disease, and then used this as an excuse to burn her body in public on the streets of Rome. ]
[Even after he executed his unfaithful wife and her cheating lover, the Roman emperor was still devastated.]
[After all, for him, Messalina is indeed the one he loves deeply. ]
[You know, this is the perfect time for Agrippina to take advantage of the situation.]
In the Imperial Gardens of Rome.
Claudius covered his head and fell into deep despair again.
"Messalina, why...why are you doing this?!"
"We were so in love and devoted to each other, why did you..."
As he expressed his pain, Claudius wished he could completely destroy the garden in front of him that he had built for Messalina.
But in the end he did not make this choice - because he knew that if he really did that, his connection with Messalina would be completely severed.
And at this moment——
A figure appeared near him.
"Uncle." A gentle voice sounded, "You look very sad."
"Um?!"
Claudius turned around and saw his niece Agrippina.
"Agrippina, why are you here?"
"I feel your sadness, uncle." Agrippina sat next to Claudius, "It tells me that you need someone to accompany you now."
"Please tell me the pain in your heart."
"Agrippina..."
[It must be said that Agrippina, who had been married many times, had mastered a set of skilled routines in seducing the opposite sex. ]
[The grief-stricken Claudius soon fell under her gentle attack. ]
[On a stormy night, he and Agrippina crossed the forbidden line.]
【Then, it was about letting Agrippina remarry. 】
【You fully understand the reason behind this and can only remain silent. 】
【And Nero came to you at this time. 】
The remarriage of Claudius and Agrippina.
It was a grand wedding, but everyone present felt an indescribable dullness.
This is not difficult to understand.
After all, no matter what, the relationship between Claudius and Agrippina was not suitable for marriage.
It was just that due to the title of Roman emperor, no one dared to express objection to this - that would be punishable by death.
"teacher."
Nero asked with his hands behind his back, looking confused.
"Why would my mother suddenly want to marry him? She has only just arrived here for a short time, and I have never heard her mention this man before."
"..."
Ian knew the truth.
But he knew that now was not the time for him to speak out.
The man could only begin to explain Agrippina in a relatively nice way.
"Maybe it was love at first sight."
"Love at first sight?" Nero widened his eyes slightly, and it was obvious that he cared a lot about what Ian had just said.
"Yes." The man nodded. "Because she felt love at that moment, your mother ignored her identity and the doubts from the outside world."
"Nero, this is marrying the love she pursues, do you understand?"
"..."
Nero looked at his teacher and then at his beautifully dressed mother.
A smile gradually blossomed on the girl's face, as bright red and beautiful as a rose in its best season.
"I understand - because I love that person, I can ignore everything else and don't need to care about other people's eyes, right?"
"..."
Ian did not continue to answer Nero - because that was not the case at all.
But for the girl, this was more like a response than a response.
Teacher, I agree.
Nero's cheeks flushed slightly.
Looking at Claudius in front of her, she began to envision herself becoming emperor.
At that time... I can also do what I want to do in the name of pursuing love, right?
【Agrippina married her uncle Claudius.】
[This had an irreversible impact on Nero. ]
[Her status suddenly rose from a descendant of the collateral royal family to a descendant of the direct royal family.]
[The voices of dissent in the Senate gradually decreased - you know that was all because of his stepfather Claudius, no one dared to directly point fingers at the emperor. ]
【Everything seems to be calm now.】
【But you didn't expect that Agrippina soon discovered a new problem. 】
[That is, a suspected "rival" of Nero has appeared. 】
[That is Brittanicus, the son of Claudius and his ex-wife Messalina! ]
398. Nero's Special Permission/Bastard Rumor/Road to the Emperor (4k)
[As the most direct testimony of love, Claudius and Messalina had a son, Brittanicus. ]
[He is the one who truly inherited the bloodline of the Roman Empire.]
[So even though he was four years younger than Nero, Agrippina still included him in the ranks of competitors. ]
【But this time, you have a different opinion from her. 】
Late at night, inside a Roman palace.
A pair of figures strolled along the corridor, and a mysterious magic shrouded them - this would make others temporarily ignore their existence.
And these two people were not unknown people, they were Ian and Agrippina.
"Madam... I don't think it's necessary to kill Brittany Cuss so ruthlessly, right?" the man said to the woman beside him.
"Huh? Really?"
Agrippina stood up and looked towards her daughter's teacher.
Those eyes, as dark as mud, now contained an indescribable sharpness.
"Then Seneca, why don't you tell me...why can't we do this?"
"..."
Realizing that Agrippina might indeed be shaken by his words, Ian quickly explained his thoughts.
"Ma'am, what I'm going to say next may make you angry."
