Chapter 888

Night. Lucilla's residence.

Since her father became the emperor of Rome, Lucilla has been living in the palace. Later, she married her first husband luchius, who was the co emperor of the Roman Empire with his father. Naturally, Lucilla can continue to live in the palace.

However, after lucchius died, Lucilla was married by her father to her second husband, Pompeii Yanus, so she had to move out of the palace. Fortunately, her father made the Senate grant her the title of Augusta in order to compensate her. Pompeii Yanus was not as dignified as her previous husband, but his attitude towards her was impeccable, Although they are not as affectionate as other newlyweds, they can get along well.

Pompeii Yanus spent most of his time in the military camp and did not interfere in Lucilla's private life.

Therefore, in the eyes of others, Lucilla has a marriage life that most women envy.

Her domusley is holding a banquet almost every night, with endless wine and all kinds of beautiful men, but neither of them can make her happy tonight.

In fact, before the party, Lucilla seemed a little absent-minded, even lost, and no longer lazy and proud. However, when her maid asked her if she wanted to cancel the party tonight, Lucilla just said that everything was as usual.

But then when those handsome men invited her to dance, they were all rejected by her, and then Lucilla got up and left her seat. She told the maid that she wanted to go back and change her clothes, but in fact, when she came back to the room and took off her clothes, she didn't go to the wardrobe to get her new clothes.

instead of standing in front of the bronze mirror and looking at herself in the mirror, she seems to be fascinated by the people in the mirror. Her palm has touched her skin, bites her lips, reaches into a drawer, and touches a emerald green bottle in a bottle of perfume.

When she picked up the jade bottle, a tangled and unwilling color flashed in her eyes, but she finally opened the cork on it.

However, when she wanted to send the jade bottle to her lips, there was a cough behind her.

Lucilla was startled and her jade bottle fell to the ground.

"They said that Cleopatra VII learned that his death was approaching after the battle of akhinggi, so he asked his maid to hide a poisonous snake named Apus in a fig basket. She let the snake kiss her chest, ending her legendary life. Her death also meant the end of Ptolemaic dynasty, and finally Egypt was captured by Rome It became a province under Rome. "

"When did you show up here?" Lucilla turned and saw the speaker.

"I'm sorry, but I'm just here." Zhang Heng wiped the bloodstain on the two Persian swords with the silk bed sheet. "At night, I met a little trouble. After solving it, I came here to see you. To be honest, I didn't expect you to take off your clothes as soon as you came in. I wanted to wait until you changed your clothes to avoid this embarrassing situation, but..."

"They're going for you, aren't they?" Lucilla's face changed slightly.

"Well," Zhang Heng nodded and thrust the polished Persian sword back into his waist. "It looks like you've broken it."

Lucilla did not object. "We lost this war. In fact, we lost not only this war, but everything."

"I can't agree with the last point. Don't you still have me? Though, you shouldn't have kept it from me from the beginning. " Zhang Hengdao.

“…………”

"It's too late now," said Lucilla, shaking her head, but after that she picked up a little and asked, "how did you get here?"

"Augusta of the Empire, the emperor's own sister, is the priestess of the balance blade of the mysterious assassin organization. It must be admitted that people without imagination can't connect the two, not to mention that you and you who play the role of priestess kleiss are two people." Zhang Heng said, "er Why don't you find a dress to put on first, and then we can continue to talk. "

"I don't think it's necessary." after the initial confusion, Lucilla quickly recovered to nature, so she stood in front of Zhang Heng, without any cover up. "Don't you have no interest in me at all? I remember you refused me more than once before."

"Well, if you're not afraid of catching cold, you can just It's in the air. " Zhang Heng rubbed his nose and turned the topic back to the subject. "The time you met me with a priestess, with a mask, the voice is completely different from the present, but you have overlooked one detail, the perfume of your body."

"the smell of perfume on me?" Lucella frowned. "I didn't neglect it. Every time I took the priestess of Kreis, I would shower first and then change another perfume."

"yes, but you used two kinds of court perfume, but at the beginning I didn't suspect you. I just thought that the priestess of the balance blade was hidden in the palace like a court maid and so on. I really began to put you in doubt. When you moved to my house on the day I moved to my new home, you came to visit me. I thought it was a threat to me, but that night ostrus came to me and asked me some questions, and then I realized what you meantLucilla nodded, "I just got the news that otrus might meet you that day. It's too late to call you as the priestess of cleis, so I have to go to you in person. Fortunately, there have been many rumors about me. It's not strange that I like a gladiator, but you can't do it just by one word Be sure of who I am. "

"Yes, but then I went back to where we met that night." Zhang Heng said, "that house belongs to Scotus, a young man from the Kelasu family. A friend of mine told me that he seldom came here two years ago. Later, out of curiosity, I investigated Scotus and found that two years ago, there was a rumor that he was one of your secret lovers. That was where you had an affair, right?"

Zhang Heng said while looking at the opposite Lucilla.

"This is also something I don't understand. At that time, your eyes were not covered, but also put into the car. How could you find that place?" Lucilla said in surprise.

"It's a trick that an old friend of mine in Baker Street taught me. If it was him who was loaded into the carriage that night, he would touch it back faster than I did." Zhang Hengdao.
