Chapter 880

In the history of Commaud, only his elder sister Lucilla was left after he succeeded to the throne.

However, this does not mean that he has no other brothers and sisters. In fact, Aurelius has quite a lot of children, but most of them fail to survive to adulthood, leaving only two children after his death.

If you include the children who died young, commode has many brothers. Among them, the twin brother who is closest to the age inferred by Zhang Heng is commode's twin brother. The latter died young when he was four years old. Aurelius held a funeral for him. The Senate at that time also suspended the meeting for a day to express its grief.

This matter is remembered by ordinary citizens in Rome as long as they are not too young.

So at the social level, Commaud's twin brother has indeed died.

This is why Zhang Heng didn't think of this at the beginning. Of course, these are only Zhang Heng's conjectures now. If you really want to prove that otrus is Commaud's dead twin brother, Zhang Heng needs to collect more evidence.

Considering the special nature of the palace, almost all political forces will secretly place their hands here, so there is no secret in this building complex. It is obviously impossible for a prince to continue to live in the palace for so many years without being discovered. Therefore, for whatever reason, if Aurelius wants his child to continue to live in secret In the world, you can only send him away from the palace. The safer choice is to send otrus directly out of the city, and the farther away the better.

It's like Zhang Heng sending a slave girl on a long journey.

The good news now is that in view of the disease of otrus, people in the place where he lived and grew up can't have any impression of him. As long as we find out which people Aurelius trusted most 16 years ago, and find out the nobles in the remote feudal areas, we can easily confirm Zhang Heng's conjecture by visiting there.

But the bad news is that Zhang Heng has no time to do it.

especially when Zhang Heng went to the perfume shop again, he found that he had changed his boss, and the clerk who had received him was gone. Zhang Heng knew he had been abandoned.

This abandonment does not mean that the blade of balance has thrown him to the hound, but that the war between the blade of balance and the hound has probably begun, and both sides are nervous. However, the blade of balance obviously lacks trust in Zhang Heng, the alternate core member. In addition, the reason for the traitors in the organization makes it easy to put him, an unstable factor with little faith, at this critical moment I left it aside for a while and went to play by myself.

If it's just like this, Zhang Heng doesn't really matter, because his original plan is to paddle, and it's not a big deal if no one pays attention to him. But the problem is that Zhang Heng immediately heard a new news that Commaud planned to visit a military camp twenty miles outside Rome. Besides him and Clint, the accompanying personnel also had the name of otrus.

You know, the noble politicians in Roman politics are not unfamiliar with this name, but no one has seen the true face of otrus. In the past, the owner of this name has been living in the dark, but it's impolite to say that otrus is probably the second most powerful person in the city of Rome, second only to his majesty Commodus of the Empire.

In general, he is easy to be scared and vigilant by his majesty. However, it seems that Commaud has incredible trust in his chief adviser and has never doubted the other party.

This also made clind and other advisers envious and envious. This time, the emperor announced that there was otrus among his fellow travelers, which seemed to mean that Commodus was ready to push the man who had been behind the scenes to the stage. Therefore, this inspection, which was originally just a routine business, became particularly eye-catching.

Not only did the nobles and elders want to see the real face of the first powerful official under the emperor, but clinde and other advisers also got nervous and felt a sense of crisis. The behind the scenes otrus already had such great influence. Once he stepped onto the stage, he began to use his power and influence to make friends, form his own forces, and even make friends in the future In the near future, we will control the Senate and even the whole country.

What klindr and others don't understand is why Commaud would watch this happen. No matter how much he trusted otrus, it would undoubtedly damage the imperial power.

Klinder even gathered a group of people who had a good relationship with him, ready to admonish Kang maode together.

Naturally, he didn't forget Zhang Heng, the new man that Commodus liked very much recently. During this period, Zhang Heng's speed of rising was unprecedented in the whole Roman history. From slaves to civilians, to consultants, to acquiring fiefdoms, he became a real aristocrat. It took several generations for other families to complete the triple jump. Zhang Heng only took a little more than half a year to complete, fast It's unbelievable. Even Clint regretted getting him to Commaud.

But now klindr has more headache opponents to deal with, so he has no time to fight Zhang Heng.

However, when he left from Domus of Zhang Heng, his face was gloomy, but almost dripping water. Clinde did not expect that Zhang Heng would refuse him. Although he did not really regard Zhang Heng as his political ally, their last cooperation was quite pleasant. Zhang Heng also showed some intention to join hands with him to deal with otrus.Because of this, klindre agreed to help and let Zhang Heng pull the tiger skin of the guard to scare those big forces in the southeast city. As a result, not long after this, Zhang Heng tore up the alliance agreement and made it clear that he did not intend to participate in the fight against otrus led by him.

Klinder almost failed to maintain his always gentle image, but he obviously didn't want to set up a new enemy at this juncture. At last, he just took a cold look at Zhang Heng and turned away.

In fact, Zhang Heng hopes that clinde's group can succeed, because this is a trap to deal with the blade of balance. Zhang Heng is one of the few people who knows about the physical condition of otrus, and knows that he can't appear in public at all. But Zhang Heng also knows that clinde and others have no chance of winning this admonishment.

The final result did not come out of Zhang Heng's expectation. Klinder and others failed to persuade and stop Commaud. After two days' inspection, the emperor still insisted on taking otrus, as if to tell the world how much he trusted his advisor.

Zhang Heng also realized that he had to meet with the priestess before this investigation.
