My XX deal with Sister Nero

Although the two municipal institutions, Visi and District, are subordinate to the Rome Municipal Government, they are all under the Rome Municipal Government. However, these are the people Tony has found. How many of them can you guarantee will not follow the lead of His Royal Highness the Prince? Can you guarantee that Tony will not use this method to control the city of Rome?

Once our little prince takes control of the city of Rome... will that be good for everyone?

Originally, the Senate was very opposed at the beginning, but after the Windex Rebellion, the Senate was already in a completely passive position and it was difficult for it to protect itself. How could it have the energy to care about your street office!

Under Tony's planning and with the promotion of several city officials, corresponding Vesi institutions and district-level administrative agencies were soon established in the city of Rome according to the blocks.

"Brother, we...finally..." Looking at Tony standing on the balcony and gazing into the distance, Nero slowly walked to Tony's side, stroked his head gently, his voice sounding a little ethereal.

"Yes, sister, we... are finally going to... cough cough." After coughing twice, Tony blushed and lowered his head.

As a reserved Chinese, and as a man who still has some dignity, he who could not say sweet words in his previous life would not say sweet words like "we'll be together forever" in front of his sister in this life.

But then again, Tony has liked Nero since his last life, which means it has been several years. But why does Nero like him?

Compensation psychology?

In psychology, there is a concept of compensation psychology, which refers to the fact that Nero felt guilty about Tony because he disappeared when he was very young. After seeing Tony come back alive, she felt guilty for not taking good care of her brother. That's why she wanted to compensate her brother and make his life better.

But Tony had never heard that the compensation psychology could make one become the other person's wife!

Forget it, never mind. Nero is determined to marry me anyway. I can just assume that Nero has a compensatory mentality and a brother complex, and the two are mixed together... Isn't it beautiful!

Why do you care so much?

"So... brother, can you continue to sleep with sister tonight?" Nero asked Tony with hopeful eyes.

"No!" Tony refused without even thinking.

Some time ago, because his bed was moved away by Nero, Tony had no choice but to sleep with Nero. Fortunately, Tony was very busy those days and had no time to practice standing up early in the morning, so it didn't matter if Tony and Nero slept together during that time.

But later, when he was less busy, Tony secretly found Tita and asked her to send someone out of the palace to buy a new bed. When the bed arrived, Tony moved directly back to his own bedroom.

There is no problem sleeping with my sister, but if I wake up early the next morning and find that I have shamefully leaked some liquid, that would be a big problem!

In order to ensure his own purity... ahem, I mean to ensure that he still looks somewhat pure in front of his elder sister, Tony had to reluctantly leave his elder sister and return to his room.

If you don't leave, something bad will happen sooner or later!

Tony is also a normal man, and also a... ahem, anyway, he also wants to sleep with his sister, but now, the situation does not allow it.

Tony didn't know whether this kind of premarital behavior was allowed in the Roman Empire, and he couldn't ask others about this matter. In order to prevent someone from taking advantage of this to create obstacles in his marriage with his elder sister, the best way was to distance himself from his elder sister as much as possible physically, especially during this period of time.

Before, few people knew that the elder sister liked him, and few people knew that he liked the elder sister, so even if Tony and Nero slept in the same bed, everyone would at most think that it was a deep sibling love and that the elder sister wanted to take care of her brother. But now... I'm sorry, the two of you have been exposed. If you sleep together again, what if someone with ulterior motives takes advantage of you?

PS1: Thanks to "My Nero Wife" for the tip of a blade, thank you~

PS2: The new book will be updated this week or next week, and it is tentatively decided to be updated weekly. When you are free, you can collect it and keep it. The new book will be updated daily after it is finished.

Chapter 398: The End of the Windex Rebellion

Tony also wanted to sleep with his sister, but his mind didn't allow him to do so at the moment.

Although the Senate was temporarily suppressed by relying on Vendice's rebellion, this does not mean that the Senate has surrendered to the Claudius family. After recovering from the initial panic, the Senate should be thinking about how to retaliate now, right?

Of course, for the time being, they didn't dare to retaliate against themselves with unfounded charges, because they knew that if they dared to use this to retaliate against Tony, Tony's counterattack would be very bad for them, but what if it was something that happened?

Tony didn't want to take any risks at this critical moment.

But then again, the situation in the province of Lugdon in Gaul... should be about the same, right?

After Windykes was captured alive, Tony could no longer pretend to be deaf and dumb. Anyway, his goal had been achieved, and there was no point in pretending to be deaf and dumb any longer. So, some time ago, Tony sent a legion to the Gallic province of Lugdon to wipe out the remnants of the rebels.

But how many remnants of the rebels can there be?

At the beginning, Windex had gathered a total of 800 soldiers. Among these 800 people, more than 100 people were killed when Martha attacked. Among them, more than 20 people became deserters and fled in the chaos. The rest were almost leaderless. Under the leadership of their respective military commanders, they returned to their chiefs, and then... a legion stationed in the German province rushed over.

To be honest, if the remaining 600-odd people got together, they might be able to cause some damage to the legion, but if they were scattered...there would be no damage at all!

So when this Germanic army entered the province of Lugdonian Gaul, almost all the Gallic chieftains who participated in the rebellion knelt down and surrendered, begging the empire to show leniency to them.

As for Galba...Tony didn't do anything to him.

Tony knew that Galba would rebel based on the "future" he had.

Before the rebellion, Windex wrote a letter to all the governors, asking them to rebel together. However, except for Galba, the other governors reported Windex, so Windex simply pulled Galba in and told him that since the emperor suspected him anyway, they might as well rebel together.

In addition, Windex promised to support Galba as emperor at that time, so Galba finally agreed to Windex's request.

As for now, Tony didn't know whether Galba had agreed to Windex or not. Tony only knew one thing, that Galba did recruit and train troops in Spain some time ago, but the banner he raised was to quell Windex's rebellion.

"This old dog..." Shaking his head, Tony sighed. It seemed... he had no reason to attack Galba for the time being.

This old guy is so cunning!

Although Galba did not leave any evidence of rebellion, Tony still decided to give him a warning. He found a random reason and wrote a letter to reprimand Galba. Then Tony began to prepare to deal with the follow-up of the Windex rebellion.

After this Germanic legion took over the province of Lugdon Gaul, Tony ordered it to take Vindice and the chiefs who assisted in the rebellion, along with their families, to Rome for trial. However, Vindice was self-aware and knew that he could not escape the death penalty. So when they were about to enter the Italian region, Vindice, the governor of our province of Lugdon Gaul, chose to commit suicide.

"Windykes... is dead?" Tony sighed after hearing the report from his subordinates.

He knew that Wendykes was using his own death in exchange for the life of his family.

Nero was not bloodthirsty, otherwise he would not have exiled Agrippina the Younger who poisoned her husband; Tony was not bloodthirsty either, otherwise he would not have exiled Decianus who instigated Boudica's rebellion.

He was gambling, gambling whether the kindness of His Majesty and His Highness would come to his family. He was willing to use his own death in exchange for His Majesty and His Highness not pursuing the matter.

"Pass the order down..." Standing next to Tony, Nero was silent for a while before sighing and saying, "Windex is dead. His direct family members...will be exiled to the Germanic province. If the collateral family members did not participate in the rebellion, they will be released."

"Yes, Your Majesty." A guard bowed deeply to Nero and then retreated.

Although the Germanic province is also considered wild, compared to those African provinces close to the desert... it is simply a paradise.

In general, Windykes was forced to rebel by Tony. The dead are dead, and Tony thinks there is no need to kill him. After all, Windykes' status as a veteran has not been stripped away.

But those Gallic chieftains will not be let off so easily.

After Caesar conquered Gaul, in order to facilitate his rule, he still maintained overt respect for the former Gallic chiefs. Caesar did not even deprive these chiefs of their titles. Well, anyway, your country, your people, your wealth, and your army all belong to me, so it doesn't matter if I leave you an empty title.

As the governor, Windex naturally had good relations with these local tyrants. So good was it that when Windex was about to rebel, these chiefs all sent out troops and gathered 800 troops for him.

However, these chiefs...ha, you are not senators of the Senate, so there is no need to be polite to you.

When these Gallic chieftains were escorted to Rome a week later, they were sentenced to death by Nero before they could even sit down. Their immediate family members were made slaves, and their collateral relatives were exiled to Africa.

After dealing with these, Tony began to shift his attention to the Germanic region.

"What did you say? Someone from the Marcomanni tribe actually planned to assassinate Agrippina the Younger? And succeeded?" In a very simple wooden house, a middle-aged man in a rough linen robe stood up subconsciously, looking at the attendant kneeling in front of him with an incredible look on his face.

Just as Tony was shocked, the chief of the Germanic tribe was also shocked.

There have always been frictions between the Germanic tribes and the Roman Empire on the border. Both the Romans and the Germans are well aware of this. However, minor frictions are just minor frictions after all. After so many years of peace, the Germans also need some time to recuperate. So no matter what, the Germans had no reason to assassinate Agrippina the Younger.

Because this would basically be tantamount to joining the other Germanic tribes in declaring war on the Roman Empire.

If the Roman Empire was really pushed into a corner and was determined to launch a national war, the Germans... I'm sorry, I really can't understand how the Germans, who were seriously inferior to the Roman Empire in terms of weapons smelting, strategy and tactics, could have any hope of winning.

Chapter 399: My brother's birthday party, let's just hold it in the bathtub~

"Fortunately, I was recruiting troops under the pretext of suppressing rebellion." After learning that Windykes had committed suicide, Galba stood in the study, patting his chest gently and muttering to himself.

To be honest, he was not optimistic about Windex's rebellion at all.

The empire is currently at its peak, and there are large numbers of Roman troops around Vendix. Once a rebellion breaks out, the surrounding troops can rush to Gaul to quell the rebellion at the fastest speed at any time. Moreover... although it is not known how many troops Vendix has under his command, according to Galba's estimation, it is definitely less than a legion.

If he had not misjudged the situation, if he had not had the promise from Windex, how could Galba have raised the banner of rebellion together with Windex?

Fortunately, Galba was smart enough. When he was recruiting troops, he used the excuse of preparing to quell the rebellion of Windex. That was why even though Tony knew his real purpose of recruiting troops, he couldn't say anything directly.

The assassination of Agrippina the Younger eventually became public knowledge, and soon the news spread throughout Rome and even to many surrounding countries and tribes. The Germanic tribes panicked when they heard the news!

Agrippina the Younger was assassinated, and there was a Germanic shadow behind it. What does this mean?

Although the Germans are upright in character, they are not stupid. It is obvious that the Germans, who have been relatively law-abiding in recent years, have been used as pawns. Some people are trying to divert the trouble and let the Roman Empire attack the Germanic tribes.

But the question is, who is this person?

The first to take action were the Macomani tribe.

According to the information sent back by Rome, the Germanic man who contacted Tarquin was from their tribe. Therefore, the chief of the Marcomanni tribe immediately ordered a thorough investigation of the matter. At the same time, he also sent envoys to Rome to prove his innocence to the Roman emperor.

In fact, it is not the same as him proving his innocence. Tony certainly does not believe that this was done by the Germans. They are honest, but they are not fools. The one who contacted Tarquin might be a real German, but the owner behind this German is definitely not a certain Germanic tribe.

But just like Tony said before, this was an open conspiracy. Even if Tony could guess that there was someone else behind the other party, in the absence of direct evidence, Tony could only follow the wishes of others and attack Germany.

The Macomanni tribe certainly knew this, so while the chief sent envoys to prove himself, he also began a frantic investigation into who was behind that traitor and who was trying to trick him and the Macomanni tribe.

You know what, when the Macomani tribe really starts to frantically mobilize the state machinery to investigate a person, even if it is just a small tribe, it will be able to find out something.

It was soon discovered that the German who contacted Tarquin was indeed a traitor. It was said that an unknown guy had contact with this German some time ago, and then... Agrippina the Younger died.

It is obvious that this unknown guy should be the real culprit behind the scene, but who he is and what country he is from is still unknown.

The whole case seemed to have reached a stalemate again.

The case was at a stalemate, but Agrippina the Younger had to be avenged, so in desperation, in early April, Tony ordered all the legions on the northern border of the Roman Empire to be on combat readiness, ready to cross the Danube and Rhine rivers and attack the Germans at any time.

While Tony was preparing all this, on the other side, in Nero's study.

"Tita, Mary, Ola, the three of you will deploy the personnel in the next few days. Remember, don't let your brother find out that I am monitoring him. Report his every move to me at any time. Also, if he plans to go to the front line to command the battle, you must find a way to delay him and don't let him go to the front line."

Inside the study, Nero looked seriously at the people in charge of Tony's security and life, and spoke in a low voice.

"Your Majesty... do you really want to do this?" Tita looked at Nero with a worried look on her face. If Nero really monitored Tony like this, then... would it cause any unnecessary misunderstandings?

"I know what you want to say." Nero looked at Tita and said, "You are just worried that your brother will misunderstand something. But you should know that your brother...hasn't celebrated his birthday for a long time."

As a qualified brother-con, Nero of course remembered his brother's birthday. Tony had planned to celebrate his brother's birthday last year, but because Tony was not in Rome at that time, he had to give up for the time being. But this year is different. Although it is very likely to launch an attack on the Germans, but... Nero thinks that there is no need to send his brother to deal with the Germans.

Since my younger brother doesn't need to play, why not just hold a birthday party for him!

Since my brother disappeared when he was five years old, he must have suffered a lot outside, right? Not to mention birthdays, life must have been very difficult, right?

The nobles of the Roman Empire generally ate all kinds of exotic food, but what about Tony? He hardly ate anything exotic. His table was always filled with things that Nero thought were very common, such as pork, beef, seafood, etc.

But Ting said that his younger brother had set up some barbecue equipment in the small courtyard behind his bedroom? If his younger brother is free in the future, he must make something for himself.

Nero knew that his brother didn't like extravagance, so for this birthday party, Nero wanted to make it a very low-key and luxurious party. For example... how about holding the party in the bathtub?

"A-choo!" Inside Tony's bedroom, our little prince suddenly sneezed and rubbed his nose vigorously. The prince looked around in confusion and muttered, "Who on earth is it that is still talking about me in broad daylight?"

Nero's idea of ​​holding a birthday party for his brother in the bath was not a sudden idea.

Anyone who knows a little about Roman bath culture should know that in this world, the true inheritor of this culture is the Northeast bathhouse culture two thousand years later. The bathhouse is not only a place to take a bath and scrub the body, it is also a very comprehensive social place. In these bathhouses, you can not only take a bath and scrub the body, you can also chat with people, and even eat and sleep.

For example, when a certain idiot author went to Northeast China to start a business last year, he couldn't find a house to rent in the first two days, so he lived in a bathhouse with his suitcase every day.

Ahem, but then again, if Nero really did this, then... maybe Nerva, who is far away in the British province, will have new material for his novel?

PS: Let me talk about the new book. It will be released tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. It is tentatively scheduled to be updated weekly. After all, I work during the day and write at night, so I don’t have much time to prepare the new book. If I have more manuscripts or a little free time, I might change the new book to twice a week.

Although I am good at cooing but not very good at writing endings, I can guarantee that this book will not coo. To be honest, I feel a little sorry for everyone that the quality of this book has plummeted due to my own reasons... ahem, writing novels is my personal interest, but life... still has to go on.

Anyway, there is still quite some time before the book is finished. At least there are still so many main and side plots on the surface. According to this estimate, it will take at least 100,000 words to prepare for the finale in the true sense, so don't rush.

Anyway, when the new book is released tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, everyone can go and collect it if they have nothing to do, just don't embarrass me [funny]

Oh, by the way, that book "Demon Fairy Secret" that is used to supplement the world view, seems to have been gone for a long time? I will upload a few chapters tomorrow when I have time, I almost forgot about that book

Chapter 400 My Sister is a Genius

Just as Tony said before, Nero does have a certain compensatory psychology towards Tony. After all, the elder sister loves her younger brother very much, to the point of... being a little twisted?

Ahem, let's be honest, everyone here has a sister. If you don't have one, just imagine one. It's normal for a sister to love her brother, right? But how many sisters love their brothers enough to marry themselves off? How many sisters would hold a birthday party for their brothers in a big bathhouse?

no?

That’s right!

However, it is undeniable that, except for Nero, the others are not qualified actors.

"Sister Ola, you... I noticed that you are always around me lately?" That afternoon, Nero was sitting in the study reviewing documents sent from the British province. He looked up inadvertently and saw Ola standing not far from him, as if... she was staring at him?

This is a little strange.

Since Ulvia became Tony's new personal maid, Ola, Tony's former personal maid, was appointed by Tony as his head maid, in charge of all his maids, whether in the palace or in the British province.

From that time on, unless Ola went out, she was usually responsible for some coordination matters, and rarely stayed quietly by Tony's side at any time like before.

So these two days, Aura has been standing beside him, looking at him quietly... This is very abnormal!

"Ah...it's okay, it's okay." Hearing Tony's question, Ola waved his hands in panic and said quickly.
