Chapter 64 Regulus
“You take your people to Maximo Manor and tell Elder Morkel that Yulia is my woman and is by no means an ordinary slave. Take care to protect her safety.”
Li Wei said.
“Yes.”
said the centurion hastily.
After the centurion left, Li Wei asked about their situation.
Leberis, Annius and they told their situation one by one.
After arriving at the manor, they were quarantined.
was then questioned by Capo and several veterans. The questions were asked a lot, and they were very detailed and recorded.
“By the way, there is one more thing. Kabo said that he hopes you will visit him tomorrow and be investigated by him and the Committee of Ten.”
Leberis said.
“I know.”
Li Wei said helplessly, is it finally his turn?

The downtown area of Capua was bustling with hustle and bustle, Regulus sat on his shoulders and showed a faint sad expression on his face.
Since it was announced that there was a bad omen and that the Senduria meeting must be postponed, he was sensitive and felt the tranquility before the storm.
First, his knight relatives yelled at him and wanted to sever ties with him.
In the past two days, he visited several senators of the Capuya Senate, hoping to get their understanding and support, but without exception, he closed the door.
No one wants to offend Li Wei at this moment of life and death. They can already imagine Li Wei’s anger.
This made Regulus feel chills. Now Capua is like the eye of the storm, others can’t hide, but he plunged into the eye of the storm.
At this moment, several armored guards appeared in front of him and stopped his shoulders.
“Who are you? Why are you blocking my way.”
Regulus said coldly.
“Respected divination officer, our head wants to see you.”
said a guard.
“Who is your Patriarch?”
Regulus said.
“Li Wei.”
said the guard.
Regulus’ complexion changed. After a moment of silence, he said, “I’m very humble, I’m in a hurry, let’s talk next time if I have something to do.”
“I suggest you go and see it, otherwise someone will go to the Senate to sue you tomorrow, and our Patriarch will know all the dirty things you have done.”
The guard threatened.
Regulus couldn’t help being furious. Unexpectedly, this ordinary guard would dare to threaten him, but in the end his anger was suppressed by reason.
“Well then, lead the way.”
The guard sneered and led them into an alley.
There are a large number of guards in the alley, and the whole alley can’t stand.
After seeing them, the guards took the initiative to give way and let them go.
“go in.”
The guard took him to the front of a tavern and said.
Regulus opened the door and walked in, and found that this was a very ordinary tavern.
There are not many people in , only Li Wei and two female slaves are sitting at a table.
“Finally wait for you, dear Regulus fortune-telling officer, please sit down. We have enough time to discuss, no one will disturb us, I have booked this tavern for a whole day.”
Li Wei said with a smile.
He only dared to think about things like this kind of local tyrant in his previous life, but he did it today without any sense of excitement.
If he wants, he can buy a hundred at any time in a tavern like this.
“I am very humble about bad things, but I assure you that it is true, this is a sign of the gods.”
Regulus said with a serious face.
Li Wei looked at it with weird eyes, and then said, “Do you think I’m like an idiot?”
Regulus was embarrassed and didn’t know what to say.
“Could you tell me what gave you confidence and dared to prevent the convening of the Senturia Conference.”
Li Wei asked.
“Actually, I have always been kind to you, none of this is what I meant.”
Regulus said.
“It’s hard for you to convince me of your kindness. Tell me why?”
Li Wei stared into his eyes and asked.
“me……”
Regulus was speechless for a long time.
“It seems that you are still lucky. As far as I know, you are suspected of tax evasion in several properties.”
Li Wei looked at the pieces of paper in front of him and said.
“These are all slanders.”
Regulus said calmly.
If it was just these threats, Regulus would not be afraid at all.
Those nobles have done a lot of things like this, even if it is exposed, it is not a big deal.
“Moreover, you have an illegitimate relationship with the elders of Capua and the wife of the knight, including Elder Torkatos, Elder Corus, Elder Centumarus, and Lulianus. The elders, and the wives and daughters of several wealthy knights. I have to say Regulus fortune-telling officer, you are a charming man.”
Li Wei said in admiration.
A drop of cold sweat came out of Regulus’ forehead. These elders are the powerful figures of Capua.
If these things are exposed, it is likely to arouse their unhappiness, which is extremely detrimental to his career.
“You have no evidence.”
Regulus said in a panic As long as these things are checked, there will be. ”
Li Wei said.
Regulus was silent for a while, like this kind of stealing between nobles, you need to distract the maid under your hand, just ask the schedule of both sides, it is easy to match up.
And this kind of thing does not necessarily need evidence, as long as there is suspicion, they are likely to divorce.
Just like Caesar divorced his wife immediately after being cuckold, the reason is that the wife of the Caesar family should not be suspected.
“In the past three years, you and your son have faced a total of 8 lawsuits. Among them, you have embezzled your partner’s property, and the most important one is…”
There was a devilish smile on Li Wei’s face.
Regulus was holding on, but there was still a trace of despair in his eyes.
“You are accused of violating a young girl, and an honorable fortune teller would force X a young girl. That day was the Bona Goddess Festival. You are blasphemy, this is a capital crime.
Li Wei said.
The so-called Bona goddess is the **** who specializes in fertility, so only women can participate in the Bona goddess festival, and men must leave home on that day.
“Fake! Absolutely false! That day was not Bona Goddess Festival, and I gave her money, it was just a deal. I won the lawsuit, and she gave up the appeal.”
Regulus shrieked.
“But the news I got is not like this. Two of my customers are her relatives, and three are her friends. They all asked me to be the masters of her. This makes me very embarrassed. You know, a asylum must To provide legal aid to his clients, I sometimes wonder if I need to convene a citizen’s assembly for you to conduct public trials on these matters.”
Li Wei said with a smile.
