"Hmm, it's a great success that makes me happy."

Nero's visible happiness gave Ian some confidence.

After thinking for a while, he said, "Nero, I have something else I want to discuss with you about Boudica."

"..."

When Boudica was mentioned, Nero's expression suddenly became gloomy.

Just as the Queen of Britannia disliked the Roman Emperor, the Roman Emperor also disliked the Queen of Britannia.

the reason is simple.

Ever since she started her rebellion, her teacher had always mentioned her intentionally or unintentionally.

Even though she knew that he definitely didn't have that kind of intention towards her, Nero still really didn't like the feeling of hearing another girl's name from his mouth.

She was as possessive of him as she was of Rome.

"Why are you mentioning her again? Haven't we captured her five times? I even defeated her in the arena myself!"

"What else do you want to do next, teacher?"

Nero's tone wasn't exactly friendly, and Ian completely understood why she had that attitude.

After all, the two of them were indeed in a hostile relationship. It would be strange if Nero didn't get angry when he heard me mention her all the time.

but--

The more this happened, the more Ian realized the importance of clarifying misunderstandings.

"Nero, this is what happened."

[You told Nero the truth about the Britannia uprising.]

[All the problems actually stem from her vicious mother - without her ambition, there would be no rebellion of Boudica today. ]

[Nero's expression suddenly turned into surprise.]

[Obviously, she didn't expect the truth to be like this.]

"this?!"

Nero shook his head in disbelief.

She had imagined many reasons for Boudica's uprising, but she never expected that the instigator would be her cruel mother.

"Teacher, you are not lying to me, are you?"

"In order to save her, you fabricated such a lie to Xiang Yu?"

"Nero, how could you think of me as this kind of person?"

Ian looked at the girl in front of him.

"Teacher, are you lying about this kind of thing, waiting to be exposed by you? Britannia will return to Rome sooner or later, and you will surely know the truth at that time, right?"

"..."

Nero did not refute Ian's words.

She really didn't think that her teacher would lie about such a thing, nor did she think that he would really collude with the other party to fabricate a lie in order to save Boudica.

and--

Nero glanced at the hand that still belonged to his teacher.

It hadn't moved at all when he had said those words.

The body's instincts cannot be hidden - this proves that what my teacher said is true.

Ian didn't know about Nero's hand lie detector test, so he quickly asked:

"Nero...you still can't believe what the teacher said?"

"No, I believe you." Nero denied Ian's statement, "I just want to know how the teacher knows such things."

"You... probably, like Yu, have never been to the place called Britannia in person, right?"

"Where did the teacher's information come from?"

"..."

When Ian mentioned this, he subconsciously thought of the moment when he and Boudica kissed in prison.

He froze for a moment.

Immediately, the hand that Nero was holding had a corresponding reaction.

"Ok?"

Nero frowned - she believed that the special lie detection method she had found was very effective.

"Teacher, why don't you answer me? Is there something you can't tell me?"

"That's not true." Ian waved his hand, "Because Boudica told me personally."

no response.

It looks like it was indeed said by the busty woman herself.

Although this problem was solved, Nero also realized a new problem at the same time.

“That’s not right.”

"I remember that the woman named Boudica clearly hated my Rome, and I and the teacher were the ones who led the Roman army."

"According to common sense, shouldn't she hate the teacher? How could she say such a thing to the teacher?"

This was not a question Nero thought of out of jealousy.

You should know that when the two armies faced each other for the first time, Boudica once told Nero to his face that he was a tyrant and a devil who exploited Britannia, and her words were full of endless anger.

Not to mention he’s been arrested five times now!

"..."

Nero felt a more pronounced vibration in Ian's hand.

Sure enough there is a problem!

"Teacher! Are you deceiving me?!"

She knew that if she continued like this, not only would Nero not agree to the plan, but it would be even questionable whether Boudica could survive the night.

"Okay, Nero, I confess."

[You confessed to Nero your private relationship with Boudica.]

[Of course, you selectively ignored the kiss you had with her, and also ignored the fact that Boudica actually has no husband and is still single.]

[On the one hand, you know that Nero will definitely be angry about this, and on the other hand, you don't want her to know about your illness. ]

If lies bring pain, then the truth only makes it worse.

[This insignificant disguise will bring more happiness. ]

"..."

Nero looked at the man in front of him, with a bit more complicated emotions in his eyes.

"So - Teacher, you took the initiative to contact her in order to make her completely surrender to my Roma?"

"Yes, that's right." Ian nodded. "Nero, Britannia is a very sensitive place. I can't let it affect your status."

This is not Ian exaggerating.

After all, Nero's third adoptive father Claudius had made a gold coin oath on this land. If it is not handled properly, it is estimated that it will cause a lot of trouble in Rome.

"I understand." Nero's tone softened a little.

"Then why didn't Yu come to accompany her?"

"That doesn't make sense, Nero," Ian explained. "You are the emperor of Rome, and Boudica is just a defeated general."

"If you take her to do this kind of thing, wouldn't it be no different from parading her through the streets?"

"in addition--"

Ian took a deep breath.

"I think if Boudica wasn't lying, Rome was to some extent responsible for her downfall."

"Nero, I think this is the compensation she deserves, what do you think?"

"..."

Nero did not respond directly to Ian's words, but fell into long thought.

Obviously, she didn't really agree with Ian's idea, but she felt that it did make some sense.

In the end, the young Roman emperor chose to stand on the side of his teacher.

"I understand."

"In that case, I will allow you to complete this compensation."

"Yeah." Ian breathed a sigh of relief.

"I will definitely complete this task well - Nero, don't worry."

"..."

What Ian didn't know was that Nero felt his lover's hand, which was still trembling slightly, and he felt quite confused.

anyway--

It has been shaking slightly ever since he confessed that he and Boudica had a secret relationship.

Could it be that... there is something else that I don't know about?

Nero stood up slightly and looked at the man he loved so much.

No.

If I don't figure it out, I always feel like there's a lie when I look at him.

I would have to follow them secretly when the time comes - and I couldn't let them find me.

Yes, it is like that!

Nero thought so, and then secretly made up her mind. But at this moment, she felt a hand touching her head.

She looked up and saw Ian with a complicated expression. He quickly said:

"Nero, I love you at all times."

"Hmm?!" This confession made Nero stunned for a moment, but she quickly responded: "Hmm~Me too!"

417. Nero's Stalking/The Powerful Roman Empire/Lover's Speculation (4k)

【Your hard work has paid off. 】

[Nero finally agreed to your suggestion to take Boudica to visit Rome.]

[But this young emperor's possessiveness towards you has reached a point where she is almost unable to extricate herself.]

[Even at this moment when she agreed to your request, she is still on guard.]

[“I must not let my teacher be taken away by any woman other than myself.” ]

[This is the bottom line that Nero set in his heart. ]

On the streets of Rome, bustling crowds shuttle through the wide streets, and the sounds of noise, hawking, and laughter are intertwined to form a prosperous scene.

In the streets and alleys, the aroma of various delicacies fills the air, making people salivate.

but--

This prosperous scene has nothing to do with Nero at this moment.

Because the girl's mind was not on this at all - she only wanted to pay attention to whether her teacher and the defeated queen of Britannia did anything that was contrary to their relationship.

As for the best way to accomplish this kind of reconnaissance...that is, of course, to follow them!

That's right.
