() In the east of Constantinople, the Grand Palace of Constantinople, which symbolizes the imperial power of the empire, and Augusta Square, the center that maintained the operation of this ancient and huge empire, are located here. Constantinople is

The heart of the empire, and the East End is the center of this heart.

To the north of Augusta Square, between the Arena of Constantinople and Hagia Sophia, which is the original site of the Grand Palace of Constantinople, there are three marble buildings covered with sunset.

Five groups constitute the highlight of the entire empire, and the more magnificent building group not far away is the newly built Royal Palace of Constantinople.

Along the way, we were surrounded by green trees. Alexander, my guards, and I stopped in front of an enclosed courtyard surrounded by colonnades. This is our home in this city.

In the mouth of outsiders, this place is called the residence of Prince Theofano, but some people who are not very friendly to this family call this place the wolf's den because of the owner of this palace. This is the first time I know this interesting phenomenon.

Sometimes, I always have an inexplicable urge to return to Wolfenstein. But no matter what other people call this place, I like to call the owner who lives in this palace cheap daddy.

Alexander and I's father is a pretty good person, but he is quite perverted. Well, you can get a glimpse of this just by naming us. However, it is the first time for anyone to see my cheap look.

He would not be classified as a patient suffering from intermittent neuroendocrine imbalance syndrome who is in urgent need of electroshock therapy.

The black hair unique to the Greeks, the facial contours are very clear, and the lines are very attractive, but the dark pupils in the eyes and the mustache around the mouth make the whole person look more delicate, even a bit frail and aristocratic.

It has a touch of elegance.

He is very deceptive, but anyone who is familiar with this guy knows that he can pick up a 30-pound tomahawk with one hand and swing it for a long time without any effort. A year ago, his favorite thing to do was to hold a rapier.

, jumping up and down in the courtyard with windy footwork, so Alexander and I challenged him together. Our swordsmanship was relatively poor, and we were always beaten to the ground by him.

Sometimes I think about it, and I always feel that he did it on purpose. Because he never beats us. In this era that is still hundreds of years away from the 21st century, there are few fathers who don’t beat their sons. But he just doesn’t beat us, at most.

In other words, they are just practicing swordsmanship with us, and the weapons used to fight with us are not as important as

It depends on your mood. When Alexander was a child, he actually picked up a 30-pound battle ax because he annoyed him. But poor Alexander only had a stabbing sword as thick as a finger. I will never forget the day Alexander was playing with the flying sand and stones and the axe.

The expression in the film was almost frightening.

After entering the palace and tying the horses into the stables, a servant came over and told us that dinner time would be here soon.

After lunch, we left from West Point, Constantinople. It was still a few hours before evening, but it was quite depressing to have dinner as soon as we arrived home.

It was like this in ancient times. Traffic was inconvenient. Even if I rode a BMW in fourth gear, I couldn't reach a speed of 170 kilometers per hour. The maximum speed was 100. It was still a short-term acceleration. In addition, there were no traffic lights on the road, which confused me.

I often envy those who travel to ultra-high-tech planets.

During the meal, I gave the two of us a chance to roast a leg of lamb and asked us about our progress in collecting money.

I'm a little surprised. A large part of the funds we plan to use to recruit the army in the future come from the self-allocated funds that I give us every month. As a provider, he is not stupid. He just needs to use his brain a little.

I can make a rough guess.

Alexander chewed the lamb leg and asked if there was any inconvenience.

"Nikkis!"

I put down the crystal cup in my hand, swallowed a mouthful of food, and then looked sideways, I saw that I was calling me.

"I have something I need you to do. This is a private matter, but it is also a business matter!"

The cheap man's expression was very serious and solemn, which made even Alexander pay attention to the matter.

I braced myself: "It would be my honor to serve you, Caesar!"

In our case, if a person is named Caesar, in many cases, no matter what identity and title that person has, out of respect and solemnity, traditionally speaking, we must call him Caesar, even if he

It's the father.

"If you do a good job, I can help you make up for the shortfall in your funds." I smiled very coquettishly, but it was always bad for him to smile like this. He stretched out his fingers and tapped the table.

, "You all know that our family has always wanted to expand trade channels with those countries in the west."

Alexander and I nodded together, this is considered a question left over from history.

"Now, I found one."

My face lingered strangely on the faces of Mr. Cheap and Alexander, and I asked: "Are you going to contact that person? But why not hand it over to Alexander? He is the eldest son of the Theophano family, so it is not up to him to come forward.

better?"

Alexander asked: "Is it because that person's identity is not enough for Theofano's eldest son to come forward? Or is it because his identity cannot be exposed and can only be contacted in secret?"

"None of them." I raised my eyelids with an inexplicable smile in my eyes, "Because that's a woman."

"oh."

"She is a twenty-five-year-old woman."

"oh…"

"She is a twenty-five-year-old widow who has been married, but her husband unfortunately passed away some time ago..."

The smile in my eyes is getting bigger and bigger, and I feel a pain in my balls...

"I hope you can marry her."

I clearly felt the flesh on both sides of my cheeks trembling. Is this retribution? An hour ago I just laughed at someone else going on a blind date, and then it was my turn so soon? And the person was a 25-year-old adult. Compared to

It's even worse for a well-matched family! Looking at the cheap look, it seems that I really want me to marry her. Damn it, then when I am forty years old and in my prime, won't I have to face an old woman? You know, now this

There is no Botox in the civilization stage!

Bang, that was the sound of the knife falling from Alexander's hand. Obviously, he also realized the seriousness of it.

"Caesar, I think I just heard you asking me to marry a twenty-five-year-old widow. I seem to be seventeen this year." I swallowed and confirmed.

Alexander also reacted. He said: "Father, that woman is twenty-five years old, and her brother is less than seventeen. The age difference between the two is almost ten years. This age is too outrageous? Besides, what will happen to him after he marries that woman?

manage?!"

"The issue of age is your problem, it has nothing to do with me." The cheap man shook his finger and kicked the ball back to us.

"Come on, Caesar! It's not about age anymore!"

Brother, it feels so good to have your backing! I nodded vigorously, this is a major event related to lifelong happiness in the future!

Alexander stood up with a very fierce attitude: "I don't want my brother to show his talents to the world and become a waste because he is addicted to women! I need Nikki who is not a waste more than a middleman with trade channels to the west.

Ferus!”

Wait, this is not the right way to express brotherly love!

"This is for the needs of the family!"

Come on, even the family has come out, it seems that there is really no regression.

"Besides, I know Alex, what are you worried about? Don't worry, if a man doesn't really like a woman, he won't get addicted to it and become a waste." I said confidently.

Alexander showed a very disappointing expression of "Oh, it turns out it's just like this, then I'm relieved." I closed my eyes and really wanted to pass out like this. I, how could you cheat your son like this? Then

How ugly does a woman have to be to make you so confident?!

The impact of getting married was huge. After finishing the dinner in a daze, I was told to go to Mr. Cheap's room later. I didn't even know how I walked into the huge bath on the side of the mansion.

In the center of the huge bath, a white marble statue of Poseidon, King of the Sea, galloping on horseback was constantly spouting warm water, making a slow sound of running water. The hot and humid steam made the surroundings slightly hazy. He poured a basin of cold water onto his head, and then held on to the handle step by step.

After walking down into the pool, I lay on my back on the edge and looked at the ceiling above. There was a Byzantine mosaic made of fine stones to piece the way out, and colorful stones were used to depict the content of God's creation of the world.

After two lives, in a few years, the total age will be close to forty, but not to mention the hairless appearance now, even in the previous life, I just shyly pulled the girl's hand. I am the only one.

I'm stunned, but just ten minutes ago, I told me that he wanted me to marry a woman who is almost ten years older than me!

I don’t know the person.

I don’t know the appearance, but I guess it’s quite scary….

My background is even more complicated. What’s even worse is that I still don’t know the name of the woman I’m likely to marry!

The range is so huge, it's like one moment we were in the early stages of socialism, and the next moment we were told in the blink of an eye that we were already fucking living in a **.

Is this retribution for gloating over misfortune?

Tears streaming down my face!

So sad!

However, compared to this statement of retribution, I believe more that this is the so-called rolling wheel of fate! Unfortunately, I was completely wheeled by the wheel, but because the wheel moved longitudinally, my balls were crushed

.

It hurts!

However, looking at this luxurious bathhouse, this is not a place that ordinary people can afford, so the aversion to this marriage in my heart has been reduced to the lowest point. Yes, I am lucky enough to come to Theofano's house, it is cheap

I fed us, clothed us, gave us everything, and even gave me a life

I have never been more prosperous and wealthy, with big horses coming and going, and escorts and servants cheering me on. I don’t have to pin my hopes for success on reading like I did in my previous life, and dream about one day building a world with my hands. Having so much,

Now I just want to marry an older widow.

Just end it, if it really doesn't work, the big deal is, just find a mistress in the future.

After being silent for a long time, Alexander suddenly said: "Brother, I have wronged you."

After I figured it out, I wasn't so depressed anymore. I laughed and said: "It's nothing, it's a big deal. I'll often use the excuse from now on that my brother has something to do with me, so I'll spend the night at your place. Also, brother, speaking of

Regarding marriage, I feel that the me I am today may be you in the future, and you will be even worse off than me."

"How is that possible!" Alexander obviously didn't believe my alarmism.
