"Licinius Stolo..." Croto Kataks is familiar with this name, because he is now a Roman household registration officer, and Stolo will come to the household registration office to retrieve files or Submitting a citizen’s criminal record provides a lot of opportunities for both parties to deal with each other. He knew that Stolo was able to judge impartially and rarely made misjudgments when he was in charge of court affairs. He was very popular among the Romans, and of course he was also a part of him. Romans related.

Clotokatax has always believed that as a few capable and active Roman Dionian citizens, this person has a bright future.

"Is she here to intercede for Stolo?" After several years of tempering, Cloto Kataks has long lost the immaturity when he first started doing things, and he immediately thought of the reason for the other party's arrival.

"Yes, Stolo was asked to go to the inspection office to be investigated. Konya was very worried about it, so she ran to me crying, "Her husband is dedicated to doing things for the kingdom and has never colluded with those former Roman nobles." , Conspiracy to rebel...' She asked me to beg you to speak for her husband, and I agreed." Dido narrated calmly.

"Are you familiar with Stello's wife?"

"She participated in the several banquets I held. She met after coming and going. How do you say... She is not exactly a traditional Roman woman, but she also has a little bit of squeamishness of a Roman noble woman." Dido was serious. Said.

Since his marriage to Croto Catacs, Dido has accompanied him to live in Rome, but when she was about to give birth during her pregnancy, in order to ensure the safety of delivery, Christoya strongly requested Dido to come Turiyi came to give birth, so Dido stayed in Turiyi for a period of time and witnessed several gatherings of Turiyi noble ladies organized by her mother-in-law. After returning to Rome, she did the same, because she had a prince. The special status of the concubine, there are not many Roman noble ladies who come to the banquet every time, even the wife of the chief executive of Rome Asistes, plus Dido’s own long-sleeved dance, her banquet gradually spread throughout Rome. Has a greater reputation.

Clotokatax did not stop it, because this approach helped expand his influence in Rome and meet Davers's requirements.

"During this time, the Turrii Inspection Office arrested a group of insurgents who attempted to assassinate their father at the Greek Scholars Conference. Most of them were former Roman nobles. It’s normal for him to come and be investigated. But as far as I know about him, he is a smart man and will not participate in this stupid conspiracy. In the past, his father also appreciated him... I believe this is just a Routine investigation, he will go home safely soon, maybe he has already eaten at home now." Croto Kataks said confidently while eating the cod.

"I thought so too, so I simply agreed to her. Anyway, we don't need our efforts to get their gratitude easily." Dido blinked his bright eyes.

"You, you." Croto Kataks shook his head reluctantly, and picked up a piece of fried cod, just brought it to his mouth, remembering something, then put it down, and said seriously: "Just Even Romans like Konya will feel uneasy about this arrest. I am afraid that other former Roman noble citizens will be even more worried. I am worried that this will cause instability in the kingdom!"

"I think my father must have considered this issue when he made this decision, and had corresponding measures to deal with it. Don't worry!" Dido said these are no comforts, since she joined Dionia After the kingdom, in the past few years, I have deeply felt that Dionia’s strength today is inseparable from her father-in-law: that is a man of great political wisdom, and he is also very good to her. During the period of living, not only cared about her, but as long as Christia criticized him, he would come out to persuade and speak for her...

After Marge died, she found her father's shadow in another person.

If he agreed with his wife, Cloto Kataks ate a piece of cod with confidence. He suddenly remembered something and said softly: "Today I received a letter from my father in which he Let me tell you...The kingdom wants to transfer Sicilian Governor Haka back to Turri."

"Ah!" Since the rebellion against Carthage and the death of his father, Dido thought that he had been able to face everything calmly, but hearing the news still made him and her panic.

Klotokatax saw his wife’s thoughts, gently squeezed her hand on the dining table, smiled and said: "Father is not going to idle Haka, but invite him to Tuli Yi serves as the rotating chairman of the Senate."

Dido was taken aback, and then asked: "Who among the 5 rotating chairpersons has the vacancy?"

"It is an additional seat specially created by his father in the Senate, which shows that his father attaches great importance to him!"

Clotokatax heard from his wife that after most of Magonis’s family members migrated to Iberia, Margot and Hasdruba had been fighting abroad all the year round, but Dido was at home instead. Hakka spent the longest time together, especially during the Western Mediterranean War. The two had to worry about the safety of their relatives and stabilize the situation in the territory. They comforted and supported each other. Although they were just cousins, they were better than brothers and sisters. The relationship was very good, so he continued to comfort his wife, saying: “Furthermore, Haka’s health has been poor, and the affairs in southern Iberia are so heavy. Transferring back to Turri is beneficial to his health. Besides, you can get closer to us. Chris is already more than two years old and hasn't seen him as an uncle yet!..."

Dido felt relieved by Croto Catacs’s revelation, but she asked, seemingly unintentionally, “Who is the new Governor of Sicily?”

"Father did not say in the letter." Croto Kataks thought for a while, and said with a serious face: "I think my father will definitely send a very capable veteran to take over. Iberian The sub-territories are frequently invaded by indigenous people, which has a lot to do with the inaction of local officials. It needs to be reorganized. We don’t want to see the areas that your father spent 10 years conquering eventually become indigenous. A paradise where people ravage!"

Dido was silent for a moment, then stretched his brows, and said softly: "Crotto, you are right. Now that the southern part of Iberia has become the domain of the Kingdom of Dionian, you should rest assured. Let the kingdom govern...Do I still need a bowl of soup for you?"

"I'm full." Cloto Kataks put the knife and fork on the table, and the servants hurried over to clean up.

"Clotto." Dido asked softly again: "When can we return to Turie?"

"This... still needs to be decided by my father..." Cloto Kataks's desire to go home is not very strong, mainly because he is more free here, and his efforts have gained a lot People’s identification made him feel very fulfilled, so he thought for a while and said: “At the beginning, my father left me here, hoping that through my efforts, the people here will recognize the Kingdom of Dionia and support our royal family. It’s not enough, maybe I need to stay here for a few more years... I am still just a Roman household registration officer, maybe when I become the mayor of Rome, I will not be far from going home."

…………………………………………

Just as Cloto Catacs said, "a group of former Roman nobles were arrested" spread in the kingdom, and it did make some Roman citizens in the Kingdom of Dionian nervous, but very Soon they got the news: Sextus became the commander of the legion.

Immediately afterwards, they were shocked by a bigger news: Rotating Chairman Lucias resigned from the post of Chief Executive of Turíy. Si took over.

Turiyi is the center of the kingdom. Its chief executive is far more important than other towns in the kingdom, and it also has many rights. It must be a veteran trusted by King Daves. And this new news strongly proves that the arrest this time is not to cleanse the former members of the Roman nobles, but it is indeed these people who are plotting a rebellion. King Daves still trusts and is willing to reuse the former Roman noble citizens.

"Pubulius becoming the chief executive of Turriy" is also a major event in the political arena of the kingdom. Publius, who has always been low-key and has never been the chief executive, suddenly got the resignation of Lucia Si's nomination not only surprised many elders, but also met with strong opposition from them. But with the full support of Davers, he finally took this important position.

Even if the dust settles, the elders still have a lot of criticism, but soon their attention is drawn to another important event: the death of Finance Minister Merses.

Since the establishment of Dionia, Merses has always controlled the country’s financial power. Although many elders have had disputes with him over money, they have to admit: it was him. Under strict and shrewd management, the kingdom did not cause financial collapse in several life-and-death and costly wars, and it managed to support it, and only then has the kingdom become as powerful as it is today.

Of course, they are not worried that the death of Merses will cause confusion in the management of the kingdom’s finances and taxes. In fact, his successor has already surfaced. During the period when he was sick and bedridden, Archibides was recommended by him and supported by the king. He did a good job in the position of acting finance minister. Many people believed that he would officially take over this important kingdom post. .

In the past few days when the body of Merses stopped working, King Daves, the five rotating chairmen, ministers of various departments, senators, officials at all levels of the kingdom, and even many Turian people went there. For the memorial ceremony, the mansion where he lived was lined up every day before yesterday, and Merses was not even as beautiful as he was in the past few days after his death.
