After Antonio finished venting his anger, Ye Tian continued to smile and said:
“The discovery of Caesar’s Conqueror’s Staff here made me have some questions about Caesar’s death, as well as a series of things that happened after that. The real history may be different.
Caesar’s shrewdness and wisdom are well known, otherwise he would not have become the supreme leader of ancient Rome and a famous military commander and politician throughout the ages. However, some of his actions before he was assassinated were fishy.
First of all, he openly humiliated the senators at the Senate meeting. When the senators awarded him the title of ‘Holy Ruler’, he sat still in his seat and did not stand up to receive the title. This move undoubtedly angered Elders.
Those senators are all big figures in Rome, and they all have high positions. How can they bear such humiliation? Therefore, it is not surprising that they have the idea of assassinating Caesar. As the saying goes, rabbits bite when they are anxious, let alone those who Elder.
The second suspicion is that after openly humiliating the senators, Caesar unusually fired all his bodyguards and left himself completely undefended. This was definitely not something a shrewd ruler could do. .
Some time before the assassination occurred, rumors had been circulating in Rome at that time that someone was plotting to assassinate Caesar. This was certainly not groundless. Caesar, who had the most powerful intelligence system at the time, could not have known it.
Even when Caesar was on his way to the Senate, someone secretly handed him a warning note, but Caesar turned a blind eye and still entered the Senate confidently. Everyone knows what happened next.
With Caesar’s shrewdness and wisdom, even if he is very confident, he should not be so confident in matters involving life and death. This makes people doubt that all these things are under his calculations. among.
His plan was to use his own death to wipe out all political enemies and clear the way for his successor Octavian. If this is really the case, then there is no doubt that he was very successful and won the first battle. ! ”
There is no doubt that everyone at the scene was stunned by Ye Tian’s words. Everyone was dumbfounded and froze on the spot, their eyes full of disbelief!
A few of them wanted to refute, but they couldn’t find the right words for a while.
After a moment of silence, Bishop Kent asked curiously:
“Stephen, what you said seems to make sense, but why did Caesar do this? Is it too costly to use himself as bait to pave the way for Octavian?”
Hearing this, everyone else at the scene nodded and echoed a few words.
Ye Tian looked at Bishop Kent, then scanned the crowd, and then gave his answer.
“Gentlemen, I believe everyone knows that Caesar was 58 years old when he was assassinated. This was considered an elderly person in ancient Rome, and Caesar also suffered from severe temporal lobe epilepsy.
With Caesar’s pride and self-esteem, whether he died of epileptic madness accompanied by incontinence or was murdered as a hero, Caesar bravely and decisively chose the latter, and the murder would happen.
Caesar once said, ‘I would rather be the leader of a small fishing village than walk into Rome mediocrely’, ‘I came, I saw, I conquered’, which is the most perfect embodiment and portrayal of Caesar’s character.
Because of this, he accepted the sudden death and plotted against all his enemies. Caesar is Caesar after all. He even designed his own death as a sharp weapon to attack his political opponents.
And six months before he was assassinated, he had made a will early and arranged everything in order. Facts have proved that Caesar’s death did not bring chaos to Rome!
Those senators who murdered Caesar did not get any benefits. Amid the raging anger of the Roman people, they fled Rome in panic, and finally chose to commit suicide or die under Octavian’s cavalry.”
Before he finished speaking, exclamations started to sound like crazy.
“Wow! If this is the case, it would be a shocking chess game. Everyone has become the pawns in Caesar’s hands and can be manipulated by him. This is simply terrifying!”
“Don’t mention it, Caesar’s assassination was indeed full of heroism. It was a tragic epic and it completely eliminated all enemies. If he died of epilepsy and madness, it would never have this effect!”
After some exclamations, someone asked curiously:
“Stephen, even if, as you said, Caesar’s assassination was all planned by himself, what does that have to do with the Conqueror’s Rod? This golden scepter symbolizes the highest power of ancient Rome. Why wasn’t it passed on to Octavian?”
Hearing this, everyone at the scene couldn’t help but nodded, and then all looked at Ye Tian to see how he would explain.
Ye Tian smiled softly and immediately gave his answer.
“As we all know, when Caesar was assassinated, the then Roman consul Mark Antony was also in the Senate. However, before the assassination, he was invited to talk aside by his colleague Torrebonius, so he was unable to prevent the assassination.
However, after Caesar was assassinated, the Senate fell into chaos. It is entirely possible that Mark Antony, who was also in the Senate, took advantage of the chaos and took Caesar’s relics, then escaped from the Senate, and then escaped from Rome.
Shortly after Caesar’s death, in order to compete for the supreme power of the Roman Republic, Octavian, Caesar’s first heir, accepted Mark Antony’s proposal, and together they pardoned the senators who assassinated Caesar.
But not long after, after the Triumvirate of Octavian, Mark Antony, and Lepidus was formed, Octavian directly broke his promise and began to hunt down the senators and their followers who participated in the assassination of Caesar. .
All the senators who participated in the assassination of Caesar, including Brutus and Cassius, were put on Octavian’s blacklist and made public. Those senators were eventually forced to commit suicide or died in Under the iron cavalry of Octavian!
Octavian saw Caesar dying at the hands of someone he had forgiven, so he insisted on eradicating the roots and launched a crazy massacre in Rome. At least two thousand people died under his butcher knife, and he was buried with those stupid senators. .
Now it seems that Octavian’s crazy massacre may not be entirely to avenge Caesar and cleanse his political enemies. Maybe he is looking for Caesar’s relics, such as this extremely important rod of the conqueror, in the name of revenge. ”
At this point, there was an exclamation of exclamation again.
“Wow! If these are true, this is simply another “History of Rome”!”
“Oh my god! This is such a crazy day, so subversive!”
Amid the exclamations, Ye Tian’s clear voice came out again and reached the ears of everyone present.
“After killing all the senators who assassinated Caesar, Octavian tore up the ‘Latter Triumvirate’ agreement and began to pursue Mark Antony crazily. Everyone knows that Mark Antony is his father-in-law. Ah!
Since then, their relationship has been on and off, but no matter what, Octavian never gave up the idea of killing Mark Antony. Mark Antony also knew this. Octavian asked him to return to Rome several times, but he ignored it.
It was not until 30 BC that Mark Antony was completely defeated by Octavian. He and his mistress, the famous Cleopatra, chose to commit suicide, which ended the Roman internal war.
The reason why Octavian madly pursued Mark Antony, in addition to competing for the highest power in Rome, may also be related to Caesar’s relics and the Conqueror’s Staff in front of everyone. When connected in this way, it seems more reasonable!
Because he could not return to Rome, Mark Antony could not take out the hidden relics of Caesar. As a kind of revenge, he did not tell until his death that these relics of Caesar were hidden in Rome, right under Octavian’s nose!
Of course, these are all my speculations, and you don’t need to take them seriously. However, I believe that these speculations still have some truth. In the following exploration operations, we may be able to find evidence to verify them.”
After the words fell, the scene suddenly became quiet.
Without exception, everyone had a dumbfounded expression, their eyes full of disbelief.
Their eyes looking at the Conqueror’s Staff became even hotter, almost burning!
