"Brother, can you give them more money later?" Seeing a little girl of the same age as herself stretching out her hands to beg for alms from everyone like a beggar, Tita felt a little reluctant.

"No problem." Tony nodded with a smile. When the little girl came to him, Tony reached into the wallet hanging around his waist, took out a gold coin and put it in the little girl's bowl.

"Thank you." Seeing the gold coins, the little girl excitedly bowed to Tony and said gratefully.

Tony smiled but said nothing.

"Okay, Sister Tita, it's almost time for us to leave. We'll go back after playing for a while." Tony glanced at the sky which was gradually getting darker, turned his head and said to Tita.

"Yeah." Tita nodded.

"Please wait a moment!" Just as Tony was about to leave holding Tita's hand, a woman in her thirties dressed in ordinary clothes suddenly came to Tony, smiled at him, bowed slightly and said, "Thank you for the gold coin, little brother, but... one gold coin, your parents... won't scold you?"

"Ah?" Tony was slightly surprised by the pretty face of the woman. "It's okay. This is my own disposable pocket money. Besides, my sister won't care about it."

"Sister?" The woman was stunned. She was worried that the little guy would be scolded by his parents for taking out a gold coin. After all, it was a gold coin, not a small amount. But the little guy's answer was a little unexpected. Sister doesn't care? Could it be that... the elder sister is the one who is in charge of the family?

This means that the child's parents...

"Sorry... I'm sorry." Realizing that she might have brought up some bad memories for the little guy, the woman quickly apologized.

"It's okay." Tony waved his hand. He certainly knew what the woman in front of him had noticed, but he didn't care. He didn't have any feelings for his nominal father Claudius and nominal mother Agrippina the Younger. The former owner of this body had been away from his parents since he was five years old. He couldn't even remember who his parents were. How could he have any feelings for them? And now Tony... To be honest, these two people were just two cold names written in history books to him.

"If there's nothing else, we'll leave first." Tony smiled at the woman and turned to leave.

"Who is that child, Claudia?" Looking at Tony's receding back, the Thracian gladiator staggered to the woman and asked.

"This child... gave us a gold coin. I was worried that his parents would scold him when he returned, so I gave him a little warning. Unexpectedly, both his parents seemed to have passed away." The woman named Claudia reached out to support her husband and said with some complaints, "Is the injury serious? Really, how could Giais hit him so hard?"

"There's nothing we can do. Gladiators are just so violent. I'm still lucky. Who doesn't fight with weapons in the arena?" The Thracian gladiator smiled bitterly and looked at his wife with a hint of tenderness in his eyes. "Go and see how our daughter's performance is today."

After leaving the small square, Tony took Tita to continue strolling in the city for a while. When it was completely dark, he took Tita back to the palace.

Including what I wrote last night, this is the 15,000 words... How about some more?

Chapter 93 Do you think His Highness recognizes this sister? (Additional update 36)

"Hmm?" Hearing the voices of other people suddenly coming from the entrance of the alley, the Guards officer subconsciously stopped what he was doing and turned to look at the entrance of the alley.

Under the dark night sky, a pretty little girl who looked about twelve or thirteen years old stood at the entrance of the alley with her hands on her hips and a righteous look on her face.

"Oh?" After taking a closer look at the clothes the little girl was wearing and confirming that it was just a piece of clothing that ordinary people would wear, the Royal Guard officer looked at the little girl with interest, then turned the dagger in his hand and smashed it hard on the back of Iphosos' neck with the hilt.

Iphosus, who was hit hard on the back of his neck, rolled his eyes, shook his head twice, and then fainted on the ground.

"That's interesting. A girl with a strong sense of justice." The Royal Guard officer chuckled and said to a comrade beside him, "We are lucky. We were thinking that there would not be enough for two people. Now there are exactly three, one for each of us."

"Is it you?" At this time, Claudia heard the voice and turned her head to look at the entrance of the alley. The small figure standing at the entrance of the alley looked so familiar.

Isn't this little girl the one who came to watch the gladiatorial show before? Claudia remembered clearly that the gorgeously dressed little boy who came with her to watch the show casually took out a gold coin and threw it to his daughter as a reward.

"Little girl, please go away. This is not the place for you to show off." Looking at the little girl at the entrance of the alley, Claudia said anxiously.

She knew that this little girl must be seeing injustice, but you have to look carefully at the situation. Those people on the opposite side are the Royal Guards! The Royal Guards, let alone ordinary civilians, even some small nobles dare not easily provoke them.

"It's okay, Auntie. I think if my brother were here, he wouldn't allow such a thing to happen." Tita shook her head and said without flinching.

Speaking of which, after Tita and Tony returned to the palace, Tita had originally planned to rest and go to bed early. When she was about to take off her clothes, she suddenly remembered that it seemed that Saturnalia was just a few days away, and on Saturnalia... should she buy a gift for her brother?

Saturnalia was the most important festival of the year in the Roman Empire.

Many of the modern Christmas customs actually evolved from some customs of the Saturnalia, such as the Christmas tree and giving gifts to each other.

The most important thing is that the whole country is celebrating during the Saturnalia, and businesses will be closed. During this period, it will be difficult for Tita to buy any gifts, so she might as well... prepare gifts for Tony in advance while the stores are still open.

So, Tita found Mary and told her her idea. Mary, with two bodyguards, followed Tita out to buy gifts for Tony.

Then, not long after I went out, I encountered this incident on the way.

"Brother?" Claudia was stunned when she heard Tita's words.

Judging from her dress, the little girl in front of her couldn't be considered a child from a wealthy family. At best, she was just a child from a rich peasant family. But the little boy who was with her before was dressed so well that one could tell at a glance that his family was either rich or noble. So Claudia had thought that this little girl was the boy's fiancée or mistress or something. Well, children from wealthy families tend to be smart very early, so it's understandable.

But what's going on? Brother? So you're just a brother when you see injustice?

Oh, it seems like he said something that doesn’t exist in this era.

"Then you can go back and tell your brother that you were teased..."

"Shut up, Parian!" Just when the Guard officer was halfway through his words, a woman wearing the same Guard armor suddenly appeared next to Tita and interrupted the Guard officer without any hesitation.

"Mary... General?" Looking at the female Guards officer beside Tita, the man named Parian subconsciously stood up straight with a look of panic on his face.

Who is Mary? She was once the personal guard of Nero and the captain of the guard of Prince Odeni. How could such a person... not guard the prince in the middle of the night and run out to do something? ? ?

Believe it or not, I will sue you for dereliction of duty!

"I'm sorry to have frightened you... Her Highness Claudia." Looking at the woman kneeling in the alley, Mary opened her mouth and finally called out the name she used back then.

“Your Highness???” The three Royal Guards officers looked at each other in bewilderment. Stop, stop, stop. Where did Your Highness come from?! This family of three…at first glance, they were dressed like typical slaves! Where did Your Highness come from?! Which country’s Your Highness is this!

"I guess you don't know her either, otherwise you wouldn't dare to do such a thing!" Mary snorted coldly, took two steps forward to Claudia, helped her up from the ground, and said coldly to the three confused guards officers: "Your Highness Claudia, the daughter of the late Emperor Claudius I, one of the imperial princesses, are you sure you want to have any dirty thoughts about this princess?"

Damn it? !

"No, wait a minute! Her Highness Claudia... wasn't her status as a princess stripped a long time ago?!" Parian suddenly shouted.

After Mary's reminder, Parian remembered some information about Her Highness Claudia.

Claudia is the eldest daughter of the previous emperor Claudius. Claudius had three wives in his life. The first wife was Urgulania, who gave birth to two children for Claudius, the eldest son Drusus and the eldest daughter Claudia.

But Drusus died early, and this Claudia...it is said that she was not actually Claudius's child, but the child of Urgulannia and a slave.

Then... Claudius married his second wife, Paetina. As for where Urgulania and Claudia went, no one knew.

However, as an officer of the Royal Guard, Parian must know something that others don't know, such as the whereabouts of these two people.

Urgulania was secretly executed by the Guards, while Claudia was demoted to a slave and thrown out of the palace.

"Yes, that's right. Her Highness Claudia has indeed been deprived of her status as a royal princess, but...is the current Majesty still Majesty Claudius? Do you want to guess whether His Majesty Nero will recognize her as his sister? Or in other words, will His Highness the Prince recognize this sister?" Mary asked with a sneer.

"This..." Parian opened his mouth but didn't respond.

That's right, Claudius is dead, and the current emperor is His Majesty Nero, who is famous for caring about his relatives. For example, Agrippina the Younger, who poisoned the emperor, should have been hanged directly, but in the end, the former Queen was only exiled. There are even rumors that the Senate wanted to support His Royal Highness the Prince to take the throne because he was still young and easier to control, and His Majesty did intend to give up the throne to His Royal Highness because he felt that His Royal Highness was his own brother and did not want to see fratricide, so it was better to just give up the throne to his brother.

Whether it was sincere or a political show, Nero's attitude towards her relatives was completely different from that of Caligula and Tiberius. The attitude she showed was that she cared about her relatives very much.

Even compared to the throne, family members are more important.

Therefore, Parian didn't dare to gamble. If His Majesty knew that he wanted to forcibly invade his sister's vagina, even if His Majesty had a good temper, he would probably jump up and stick a piece of primordial fire into Parian's head.

"Your Highness... Princess..." After taking a deep breath, Parian finally knelt on one knee and said in a deep voice to Claudia.

"Get up...get up." Claudia certainly understood that there was a lot of water in what Mary said just now. The reason why Mary said that...maybe just because they are both women, and the other party couldn't stand what Parian did, so she said that.

Claudia was the daughter of Claudius, but because Claudius suspected that his wife had an affair with a slave and gave birth to Claudia, Claudia was not only deprived of her status as a royal princess, but was also given a new status as a slave and then expelled from the palace.

This was ordered by the late emperor. Who dares to object?

And even if His Majesty Nero loves his family, but...is Claudia considered His Majesty's family?

Agrippina the Younger, that is your Majesty's biological mother, Tony Claudius, that is your Majesty's biological brother, but what about Claudia? What is Claudia? A half-sister whom you have never met?

How is this different from a stranger?

With Mary's help, Claudia forced herself to calm down and said to Parian, "I... I am just a slave now. General Parian, you don't have to be polite to me. Get up."

Parian was only being polite for the sake of the Emperor. If Claudia really dared to ask him to kneel, he would definitely... have to kneel.

After all, Mary is right next to Claudia. What if this bastard goes and reports something to His Royal Highness the Prince?

Parian had heard some rumors before that His Royal Highness... didn't seem to have much of a favorable impression of the Royal Guards.

"Well...if Your Highness has nothing else to say, my colleagues and I will take our leave first." Parian glanced at Tita and Mary, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice.

"General Parian, please do as you please." Claudia said with a pale face and a forced smile.

Parian nodded, and left with his two colleagues with a stern face.

"Are you okay, Your Highness?" Mary said softly, looking at Claudia's pale face.

"I'm fine." Claudia still had a forced smile on her face. After gently breaking free from Mary's support, Claudia came to her daughter and, with her daughter, struggled to lift up her husband who had fainted on the ground.

"I'm afraid... I'll have to trouble Your Highness this time..." Looking at the family of three not far away, Mary couldn't help but smile bitterly in her heart.

PS1: Seven chapters, words, two of which were coded last night, and I coded four chapters today. I’m so tired, so I’m going to say goodbye and go to bed.

PS2: Oh my god, is it so hard to find a part-time job? I saw a lot of part-time jobs on 58.com, but none of them responded to me. Ugh, so embarrassing.

Chapter 94 Slave Sister

The next morning, Tony finished washing up and went to the restaurant to have breakfast when he suddenly saw Tita slowly walking into the restaurant with a mother and daughter.

Hmm? Aren't these the mother and daughter I met yesterday when I was watching the gladiatorial contest?

Tony was stunned for a moment. He remembered that this mother was quite nice. After he threw a gold coin, she came to remind him that this gold coin was not a small amount and he should be careful to get beaten when he got home. But... why are these two here?

This is the imperial palace, right? Not everyone can enter, right?

"Sister Tita, what's going on?" Tony put down the wooden bowl in his hand, frowned slightly, and looked at Tita who was standing at the door with her head down, looking like she had done something wrong.

"I... when I was leaving the palace last night, I saw someone bullying this family, so I rescued them. I was worried that they would be retaliated against afterwards, so... so I took the initiative to bring them back here." Seeing that Tony had frowned, Tita felt a little panicked. Although Tony still called her sister, but... Tony was a prince after all, the emperor's brother. He... should hate people like himself who act on their own, right?

"Bullying?" Tony sighed. Tita was still a child, a child with a relatively correct outlook on life. It was reasonable for her to want to help someone being bullied. But why did Tita go out in the middle of the night? And even if Tita led the way, how did these two get into the palace? You know, Tita was not qualified to lead anyone into the palace!

Tony frowned and pondered for two seconds. Just when Claudia felt a little guilty, Tony waved to the little maid standing not far away and said, "Sister Aura, tell the kitchen to make three more breakfasts and send them over."

"Yes." Ola nodded and then stepped back.

"Sit down first." Tony took a sip of the milk, scratched his head, and said, "Since Sister Tita brought you all in, I can't kick you out. Let me introduce myself first. At least, as the host, I should know the name of the new guest."

Claudia looked at her half brother with some fear, and then whispered, "My name is Claudia, and this is my daughter Ulvia."

"Oh, Ms. Claudia." Tony nodded.

Although Tony was interested in history and was relatively familiar with it, he was not familiar enough to know the names of Claudius' children. Besides, the name Claudia was actually quite popular.

So Tony didn't realize that this Ms. Claudia was actually his sister.

"As I remember, your husband should be a gladiator, right? Why didn't he come with you?" Tony put down the milk, took a bite of the bread on the plate elegantly, and asked vaguely.

"Ms. Claudia's husband... was injured and is now receiving treatment." Although she was relieved that Tony did not blame her for meddling in other people's business, Tita was still obviously a little timid and did not dare to speak loudly.

"Injured?" Tony knew why Tita didn't dare to speak loudly. She just thought he would blame her, and she was a little scared so she didn't dare to speak loudly. But...what's the matter with injury? In the gladiatorial match yesterday, the two gladiators should not have been injured!

"Beaten by someone? By whom?" Considering what Tita had said before about this family being bullied, even a fool could guess why the gladiator was injured.

Although gladiators look glorious, in fact their class can only be regarded as the top class among slaves. No matter how glorious these gladiators are or how many noble ladies favor them, they... are just slaves after all.

Claudia looked very beautiful, so beautiful that Tony couldn't help but take a second look, and her daughter also inherited her mother's excellent genes. A slave had a beautiful wife and daughter, and was still wandering on the streets. This was more exciting than a three-year-old child carrying a big gold cake to the street.

This is simply telling everyone, come here! Come to me, the Minotaur!

So these three Guards officers came upon summons.

You are my fucking Mas... I don't want to mess around with the times.

"It's the Royal Guards." Tita said cautiously.

"Royal Guards?" Tony raised his eyebrows. This girl had caused him quite a bit of trouble.

Being able to bring this family into the palace, it is obvious that Tita made the guards who came to cause trouble suffer. It was also because of this that Tita was able to take the people away smoothly. The guards dared to let them go, which shows that the other party already knew Tita's identity.

So now, Tony and the Royal Guards had a conflict that was not too small.

"Nero has just come to power and has won over the Royal Guards. Tita has only disturbed the Royal Guards. So, the Royal Guards should not cause me any trouble at this time. However, this family..."

After thinking about it for a while, he felt that the Guards would not do anything to him at this moment, and would not do anything to Tita for Tony's sake, but Claudia was different.

This family is just a slave family. The Guards suffered a loss, and they must get back at them!

If I ordered the protection of this family as a prince, the Guards would definitely not cause trouble for them, but is it worth it?

Tony was not a good guy in his previous life, and he also wanted to protect this family, but the problem was, once he really intervened, what would the Guards think and what impact would this have on the future? These were all issues he had to consider.

On the other side, Tita took the milk and bread handed over by the maids, drank a sip of milk carefully, and then secretly glanced at Tony.

My younger brother...has been frowning and thinking for a long time.

Although she didn't know what Tony was thinking about specifically, Tita knew that what Tony was thinking about must be related to Claudia's family. Was she in trouble?

When she thought of this, Tita's heart instantly lifted.

Her father and mother are dead, and Tita has no relatives. Now she only has her younger brother to rely on. If I bring trouble to her brother...will he chase me away?
