This was a bloody night, and the killing didn't stop until dawn. However, Luci simply did not need to take action in this massacre to vent the emperor's personal anger. Rather than saying that he was a participant in this action, Is a close witness.

When Lucy returned to the palace, what she saw was the indifferent eyes of the prince Britannicus. This indifference was not directed at Lucy, but indifference to this matter and to him. Father's indifference.

"Mother is dead, right? Ha..."

Lucy's olive green eyes gradually dimmed. He actually saw the yearning for the emperor's power in the eyes of the 6-year-old prince. It could even be said that this yearning was closer to hatred. At the same time, he seemed to be looking forward to that kind of power. A lifestyle of doing whatever you want.

But soon this yearning, this desire, and this hatred were hidden in the heart of this little prince. Lucy always felt for a moment that the country was hopeless.

Queen Messalina died. No one felt sad about her death. The emperor suppressed the news of the queen's marriage to her male favorite. Even some people in remote areas felt that killing the rebellious queen was not a good idea. , to betray such a compassionate emperor, this queen is simply crazy.

After getting this news, little Agrippina directly sent an application to the palace through her own connections, applying to become the secretary of the current emperor. Perhaps it was because of little Agrippina's means, or maybe it was because of her. Due to the emperor's lust, little Agrippinana's application was actually approved.

Lucy also occasionally met her physical mother a few times in the palace. Perhaps it was because little Agrippina had been busy seducing the emperor these years and did not pay much attention to the situation in the arena. Therefore, Little does he know that the child he hates has actually entered the palace.

Looking at the flash of blond hair and the golden mask that changed due to the change of age, little Agrippina just frowned and comforted herself. Maybe she had seen it wrong, but she didn't think so. His unlovable child can be better than his beloved daughter Nero.

It just so happened that Luci didn't want to have a good relationship with his mother. Now he was no longer at the age where he expected his mother to give him maternal love. In other words, as a reincarnation, he didn't think he could grow up as a child. Rippina received maternal love.

If this woman knew that she was now in the palace, she would definitely find a way to drive her out of the palace or poison her.

A year later, little Agrippina successfully conquered the old emperor and became the new queen of the empire. At the same time, she persuaded the emperor to connect Nero to the palace, and even got The right to inherit the throne.

In Britannicus's room, the golden cup was thrown directly to the ground by the prince, and the wine was spilled on the silk carpet from the East. As a little boy, he began to drink wine since his mother's death. After being exposed to fine wine, he seemed to be experiencing a feeling of indulgence. Of course, the expression on his face at this moment was not joy but anger.

Chapter 228: What are you worried about? Lucius

Listening to the sounds in the room, Lucy, who closed her eyes, felt more and more silent in her heart. At this moment, he felt like he would either explode in silence or perish in silence, like a dark cloud hanging over the sky. A heavy downpour could fall at any time, and the prince in front of him was becoming more and more disappointing to him.

Letting this young man become the emperor in the future will only make the fallen beast grow faster. Even if everyone is praising this young man's beauty, so what? Governing a country solely by beauty is simply not feasible.

"What does that old man want to do? Is he doubting my bloodline?!"

The boy in the room kept tearing at his belongings and venting his anger. All kinds of valuables from the East could not escape his clutches. Ever since little Agrippina became the queen, she has been constantly tearing them apart. The emperor heard that the previous queen was so dissolute that she could not guarantee the prince's bloodline.

Perhaps the previous queen did too much, making the emperor's already weak heart more fragile and more sensitive. There was no need for little Agrippina to point out the whole thing. All it takes is for the emperor's thoughts to be slightly drawn to this aspect, and the emperor will begin to wonder if his current prince is of his own bloodline?

If this child is not of his own blood, then Nero, who has the blood of Octavian, is obviously more qualified to take his place.

It is obvious that the young prince in front of him also understands this truth. Not only that, this point will also set off another wave of waves in the entire upper class of Rome. After all, the current emperor is not too young, and coupled with his lustful and unrestrained character, no matter what It is not impossible to suddenly die of illness one day. At this time, taking sides becomes a problem.

As mentioned before, there is no way to prove that today's little prince is really the son of tomorrow's emperor and empress. If you, the prince, ascend the throne in the future, you will be questioned by all kinds of people, and you will rebel. There's an endless stream of people.

Of course, they can also support Nero, the son of Agrippina the Younger, but strictly speaking, Nero only has the blood of greatness flowing from the maternal side, but as the adopted son of the current emperor, he can be considered to have a higher status. However, after all, there are already many ministers gathered around the little prince. These ministers have been working on it for six years. How can they give up just because they say it?

"What kind of adopted son Nero! Go to hell! Go to hell!!"

After watching the little prince actually pull out a dagger and stab the satin on the table, Lucy silently glanced at it with her olive green eyes and ignored it. Only she could see the female figure leaning against the wall. , the scene was as interesting as watching a play, turned around and walked in the direction of Nero.

It had been eight years since then, and it had been such a long time since she had seen her sister. To be honest, at this time, Lu Xi felt more timid about being close to home.

What kind of expression should I use to greet my sister? Or does his sister still remember him now? After all, they were only three years old when they separated. In the eyes of others, maybe he had been buried in the underworld along with his uncle's death.

Although they had a good relationship in the past, children's emotions are always fickle, and their identities are also very different. Now I am just an officer who has no father or mother who doesn't love me, and I am not the kind of military commander who is outside. An officer does not hold much power, and his sister is already one of the candidates for the future emperor.

In this situation, it wouldn't be a problem even if the siblings don't recognize each other.

During this melancholy process, Lucy unknowingly walked into the garden of roses. The rich floral fragrance made Lucy frown slightly. Some of the fragrance was really too strong. Since then, she has been targeted by the beast. After that, I didn't like such a sweet fragrance very much. The fragrance of olives was more to my liking.

Planting this place full of roses must have been the idea of ​​her mother, little Agrippina. After all, her sister had liked the red roses since she was a child. Now that she has become the queen, she naturally wants to give the best to her. For my most beloved daughter, even these roses are the most delicate parts.

"Boom! Let me see who is here? Isn't this my little brother I haven't seen for eight years, Lucius? Why are you planning to stand at the door and reminisce with me?"

The blond girl stood at the door of the hall, with a bright smile on her face. Compared to Lucy, who was in a slightly heavy mood, this girl was like a flower that bloomed forever in the sun. That was the real truth. The gorgeousness.

very nice......

The girl in front of him has not been contaminated by the corruption of the empire. In this case, he can feel at ease for the time being. Originally, Lucy wanted to recognize her sister, but after seeing this girl as gorgeous as a rose, After blooming, Lucy changed her mind.

Perhaps it was just like what he had guessed when he was a child, as long as his life was not very good, his sister would bloom like a flower, and if he lived a bright life, his sister's situation might not be so satisfactory.

Think about it carefully. Before the age of three, I was not valued by my mother, but my sister was enveloped in her mother's love. Then I experienced a year of warm time with my uncle, but my sister could only He barely had enough to eat at his aunt's house. After all, his mother was exiled at that time, and there was no future for him no matter how he looked at life or death.

At that time, her aunt only needed to ensure that her sister had enough food and clothing. Just like herself, when her uncle was assassinated and she fell into the arena and little Agrippina was freed, her sister began to suffer. Good aristocratic education.

So let yourself be unknown at this time.

"Your Highness Nero, you have admitted your mistake. My subordinates are here just to remind you that His Highness Britannicus has a certain degree of hatred for you, and that you should be more careful in the future."

Just when Lucy turned around and was about to leave, the blond girl came over with a smile on her face and her eyes looking at her.

"You should be the captain of Brittany's guard. If you have nothing to do with me, but you come to remind me, I don't believe it. So what are you afraid of and worried about? Lucius, I I should have told you that everything I have is half as good as yours.”

Chapter 229: Remember, we are siblings

Nero gently raised his hand and placed it on the golden mask. Looking at the pair of eyes that were the same as his own, looking nervously at him, Luci actually closed her eyes nervously for a moment. Eyes, but this kind of hiding one's ears and stealing the bell was exchanged for the gentle laughter of the blond girl in front of him.

"Why do I feel like I haven't seen you for eight years? Lucius, you have become more innocent and silly, which makes people feel cute."

What's the use of this approach? If you close your eyes and can't see what you are doing, you can pretend that nothing happened. How could there be such a stupid boy? It has really been such a long time, and my stupid brother has really turned into a stupid brother. What should I do? Do I need to find a doctor to help this child take a good look at his brain?

"Lucius, you never need to hide your face in front of me."

After saying that, his fingers gently opened the mechanism on the mask. Lucy did not expect that Nero would directly attack his mask. With a clear click, the golden mask fell off his face, revealing There is almost no difference between the face of the girl in front of her, except that face, which is more handsome than delicate and beautiful.

As long as two people put on a little makeup, they should be able to perfectly simulate the identity of the other person.

"Why don't you admit your identity until now? Lucius, it seems like you haven't grown much in these years?"

Well--! !

Lucy opened her eyes directly and looked at the girl in front of her with a bit of dissatisfaction and unhappiness. His height was definitely a point that could not be touched. Now he has been stuck at 150 for a year. At the same time, According to the doctor, I'm afraid there will be no way to continue to grow taller in the future. Have you ever seen any tall and handsome boy with only this little height? ! !

If this was placed in the future, he would be a legitimate boy, but if it were placed on a boy himself, it would be a bit puzzling. As the captain of the Guards, his soldiers are all taller than him, so he wears The armor actually increases the height within a few minutes.

From now on, if you want to ask who invented the inner height increase, there is no doubt that it must be Lu Xi. If it were not because he was a warrior, Lu Xi might have directly invented high heels. Anyway, high heels were originally considered by male aristocrats in the early days. What he wears is not shabby if he invented it himself. Anyway, the current emperor is not very tall.

Of course, if anyone else dared to raise the issue of height in front of Luci, they would probably be caught and thrown away by Luci. Although Luci's body is smaller now, he is no longer a human being in essence. Don't look at that He is not very tall, but he has half the physique of a dragon.

However, when all the physical constitutions are fully present, and the witness can be used as a carrier of evil, the body should change again, and the height should increase again.

There were also people in the military camp who laughed at Guo Luxi's height. However, the next day, that person was caught by Lu Xi because he stepped into the training ground with his left foot in the morning and gave him a good lesson.

It's just that Lucy didn't know that after that, there were more people calling herself dwarf, well, terrible dwarf.

"Girls obviously grow faster than boys. So, isn't my sister's height only 1.5 meters? Don't laugh at the same time. The doctor said that it is unlikely that I will grow taller at the same time." Li, this should be 'good' news for my sister."

The corners of Nero's smiling mouth twitched slightly. Looking at the face that looked exactly like his own, Nero couldn't help pinching his cheeks with two fingers, and finally slowly pulled them away to both sides.

"it hurts!!"

"This is your punishment for disrespecting your sister."

Lucy looked at the blond girl in front of her, with a faint smile on her face, but the sadness between her eyebrows had not disappeared, but the most rare thing was that she showed a smile at the end. I don’t know how many years later, Lucy A smile finally appeared on his face.

After seeing that his brother finally showed a smile, Nero also smiled a little, and then patted Luci's shoulder with his hand, "You are still suitable for smiling, no matter what you have experienced these years, Now that I'm standing here, I can share your pressure. Although I don't know why you chose to hide your identity, you should have your own considerations."

Nero looked at the young man in front of her and slowly held him in her arms. Of course she could see a bit of melancholy on the face of the young man in front of her. He must have experienced a lot in these years.

Nero also felt a little heartbroken at this moment. As an elder sister, she could not bear the pressure for her younger brother in these years. This was really a dereliction of duty!

Looking at the boy who looked the same as himself, Nero gently touched his hair, "You must be tired after working hard all these years, right? Lucy...it doesn't matter, I am here now, you You can put everything aside for a while and rest for a while.”

It was as if Lucy had been taken off her mask by Nero and temporarily let go of her disguise. The person in front of her was her sister. She could be regarded as the last and only parent who had good intentions towards her. Well, when the tired heart has some support, the fatigue buried in the body can't help but spread out.

Although he really wanted to take a rest, Lucy gritted his teeth. Now he didn't want to just let go of his tense nerves, because this was still an important moment.

But the fragrance of roses on Nero's body is really intoxicating, maybe it doesn't matter if you relax a little at this moment.

"Um... Lucius, you can lean on me like you did before. I am my sister, but now the owner of this other temple, no one will come to disturb us, so I will leave your sorrow to you." Give me half."

Nero rubbed his brother's golden hair, looked at Luci who was obviously a little tired on his face, took Luci to sit on the steps aside, and let Luci lean on his lap, and then went to his house A gentle kiss was left on his brother's forehead, just think of it as a blessing before entering a sweet dream.

"Remember, Lucius, I am your sister. I will share my joy with you, my glory with you. Likewise, I will share half of your sorrow, and I will also bear your pain on my shoulders. I will always be by your side, so relax, even if it is for me, I hope you can get a little support and relax in this short moment."

Chapter 230: Luci, you don’t want to either...

It is rare that in the inner palace that was already dark and cloudy, a few sunshine streaked across the sky that day. At the same time, rose petals slowly fell from the sky and were scattered in the palace. It was just Lu Xi's The relaxation did not last long, as a pair of arms with a depraved aura gently wrapped around Lucy's body.

"Look, what did Yu find?"

The being with the characteristics of a beast slowly lowered his head, gently picked up a rose petal with his fingers, and finally crushed it into rose juice. Finally, he put it to his lips and licked it gently. , feeling the sweet breath.

"Yu saw another being who could be Yu's carrier. Luci, is that your sister? Another body that is so suitable for Yu, even more suitable for Yu than you. You said that if Yu's lovely son of Sodom has always been If I can’t fall into Yu’s arms, then should Yu change my goals?”

Lucy suddenly opened her eyes, quickly grabbed her arm back, grabbed the female shadow's neck, and finally forced it against the wall. Lucy's body couldn't help but feel a little burning, like a burning flame. The general red and black magic power, the eyes are like a monster, staring at the existence in front of you full of aggression and threat.

"If you dare to take action against her, then I will fight to destroy Rome and prevent your birth. Even if everyone doesn't understand it, it doesn't matter. I don't care what I used to be, what other people are like, or who I am now. I don’t have such a broad mind to accommodate so many people or forgive so many evils.”

If other people see Luci like this, they will definitely feel frightened. If they are seen by those Christian believers, Luci like this will definitely scream. This is because she is possessed by the devil. After all, in the eyes of outsiders, although Luci has Sometimes I have a bad temper, and at the same time, I seem to be carrying some pressure all the time. In addition to treating other people, I can be considered as gentle as sunshine.

Just like that golden hair, coupled with that kind of responsible character, it is no problem to be praised as the son of Dawn. After all, among many old people in the palace, it is said that the captain of the Guards has a very delicate and beautiful appearance. Although he didn't want to mention his face, the former emperor once called this child the light of Rome.

Although I don’t know why, the Light of Rome is gradually being passed down as the Son of the Morning. Lucy doesn’t hate this. After all, the new title can hide his past, but no matter which title it is, it is telling Everyone, no matter in terms of appearance, strength or moral character, at least in the eyes of outsiders, this young man is definitely the pride of heaven.

At this moment, the proud son looks like a madman, or like a wild beast that has broken free. However, this is Lu Xi's inner world. Naturally, no one will notice the situation here, and Lu Xi cannot let others It's easy to find that you will behave like this.

"Haha...Hahahaha!! It turns out that you also have such an appearance, and you also have such a weakness, Lucius! I am very happy to see this side of you, and I will use Yu's power to deal with Yu, Don’t you think it’s a little naive?”

The black-red magic power wrapped around the limbs began to twist in an instant, and then turned directly into shackles. The shackles pulled Lucy's body apart and tightened slightly at the same time. At this moment, the active relationship changed again.

The fallen beast gently touched its throat, feeling the pain caused by the young man in front of it. The fallen beast couldn't help but feel a bit of joy, a bit of being coerced by that powerful force. Pleasure, although somewhat incomprehensible, should also be one of the joys of depravity.

But she would rather apply this to others.

The fallen beast came to Luci. Looking at Luci, whose breathing was gradually declining due to the grinding of his throat, and whose brain was a little dizzy, a smile appeared on his face, "Since you don't want your sister to be left behind." If you like it, how about accepting a little bit more of Yu's power? Yu will definitely transform your body to match Yu's incomparably."

Gently brushing Lucy's lips with her hand, the fallen beast kissed her gently, and then a violent magic power poured into Lucy's body.

"call--!!"

In reality, Lucy suddenly opened her eyes. Nero blinked gently and rubbed Lucy's forehead, "Why don't you just rest for a while?"

Lucy completely suppressed what happened in her inner world, and showed a somewhat calm expression on the surface, "This is a rare rest. I can't leave my post for too long, Nero. .....This is the royal palace of Rome, the most prosperous center of Rome, and the place where Rome is supreme.

This place carries all prosperity, and also contains all sins, conspiracies, intrigues; poisonings and assassinations, all of which are constantly being staged in this palace. This place is completely different from my aunt's house. This is the intersection of light and darkness. The land, so no matter what, you must be careful! "

Nero looked at the worry in his brother's eyes, and a smile appeared on his face, "In your eyes, am I just a novice who doesn't understand anything? There is no need to worry so much. As you said, don't forget that our mother is Who, what kind of methods does she have, even though I don’t want to be like my mother, I have learned some methods from my mother."

Lu Xi nodded with a smile, then put the golden mask on his face again, reorganized his mentality, and then prepared to return to his post. Although it was a bit unsatisfactory, at least he was happy with the relationship this time. .

After Lucifer left the palace, he immediately found a deserted place, squatted down, and began to suppress the violent magic power in his body. In fact, from the moment he woke up, the magic power in his body was somewhat suppressed. I couldn't stand it any longer, and I was able to persist until now, thanks to the fact that this body had begun to gradually adapt to the magic power of the fallen beast.

But this is not good news.

Covering her chest and looking up at the sky, Lucy's expression became more helpless, Rome...

Nero on the other side looked at Lucy who was leaving, and the expression on her face was not very good. Of course she could feel the pressure on her brother, but now she didn't know where her brother's pressure came from, and she wanted to Helping him share the pressure, I don’t know what to do. Is this Roma now?

For a while, the siblings expressed the same emotion.

Chapter 231: The era of Gemini begins

No matter how chaotic Rome is, people living here will continue to live. Whether it is ordinary people or everyone in the palace, Luci still avoids meeting little Agrippina, and Nero does not She had no intention of telling little Agrippina that her brother was staying in the palace.

These siblings know better than anyone else what kind of existence their mother is.

The vague struggle in the palace became more and more intense. It was not the blood flowing on the surface but the darkness growing secretly. As the little Agrippina secured her position as queen, a war started against Ubri. The poisoning of Tannicus's group began.

Of course, Lucy is one of the people being targeted, but his "corrupted" eyes are enough to allow him to see all kinds of toxins, not to mention that ordinary toxins can no longer do anything to a half-beast like him. The impact is too big, the only thing you need to worry about is your companions.

As the factional struggle within the palace intensified, Lu Xi also had more and more power. At least he had changed from leading a team of five to the captain of a team of fifty. The oath spoken by the boy holding the heavy hammer was also fulfilled.

In order not to cause unnecessary casualties, Lu Xi had strict control over his troops. He only performed his duties and never participated too much in the struggle between the two princes' factions. Because of the people who supported him, one after another One of them was murdered, and the darkness and madness in Brittany's heart continued to grow.

Lu Xi couldn't bear to look at such a crazy look when venting in private. However, in front of outsiders, the little prince behaved with incomparable humility. Sometimes Lu Xi wondered whether the little prince was suffering from the disease. Schizophrenia already has two personalities in front of others and behind others.

What really made the prince feel angry was that he knew that some people must have been poisoned, but he couldn't find out what kind of poison it was.

All this was caused by poisoning. She was the master of poisoning in this era, the poisonous woman Locusta. She can also be regarded as the first serial killer clearly recorded in Western history. She was born in Gaul, and finally He was recruited by little Agrippina into her own talent team, specializing in making all kinds of poisons for herself.

With such a series of poisoning incidents occurring, in order to avoid being accidentally poisoned, many important figures in the Roman Empire, especially the emperor, arranged for special poison testers, who were usually chefs. , responsible for both providing delicious food to their masters and tasting in advance the delicacies their masters are about to enjoy.

In this regard, the Brittany faction naturally thought of counterattack, or even direct assassination, but they may not have thought that Luci, whom they considered uncontested and very loyal, was their biggest "traitor", so Their actions continue to fail.

This caused the situation in the entire palace to gradually tilt towards Nero.

In addition, as Britannicus grew older, his genetic diseases also began to show up. The epilepsy attacks that occurred from time to time became one of the powerful proofs that this boy was the child of the current emperor. It just made a child with Is it really okay for the epileptic prince to sit in that position?

This is Rome, not the far east. Compared with the rule of inheritance by the eldest son, people want to choose a more suitable and wise emperor. Therefore, this epilepsy has become one of the reasons for Brittany's failure. .
