Chapter 762 Little Leo's Roman World

The two women hugged each other tightly and cried with joy.

The brief and warm meeting soon ended, and at this time Li Jinia suddenly found that she was alone with Eudoria.

But there were only the two of them, which inevitably made the always meticulous Li Jiniya see a clue. At least her attention was not only focused on her daughter.

"Where is Caesar?" Licinia wondered. She quickly turned her head to look at Marenius, who was not far away, and asked him, "Could it be that Caesar is hiding and doesn't want to disturb the two of us?"

Marenius was speechless for a moment. He didn't know how to answer this question to Augusta Licinia. After all, Luca did not come back with them.

"Well, ma'am, listen to me..." Marenius twisted his fingers and said to Licinia hesitantly, "Something went wrong."

"What?" Licinia frowned. It was not difficult to see that she was angry because Marenius did not perform his duty of protecting Augustus well. "Isn't it your duty to defend Caesar? Why did only Eudolia come back?"

"Yes, ma'am, yes." Marenius nodded repeatedly. He looked troubled and seemed very entangled and unable to answer. "This is a very difficult question to answer, ma'am."

Marenius explained, and he took out a letter from the pocket hidden in his armor, then took two steps forward and handed it to Licinia, saying, "This is a letter Caesar asked me to deliver. When Caesar gave it to me, he told me that my wife would understand after reading it."

Licinia looked at the letter with a gloomy face and an extremely unhappy look. Then she reached out and grabbed the letter from Marenius' hand.

Licinia quickly opened the letter in front of Marenius. Her movement was so loud that one could see her dissatisfaction from the side.

She opened her eyes wide, nodded continuously, and flipped through the small piece of paper up and down, but she didn't know what kind of magic this letter had that could change the expression on the face of Augusta, a woman who was always proud.

All I saw on her face was anger, which gradually calmed down, then turned into confusion, and then turned into sadness and frustration.

"He, he..." Li Jiniya's lips trembled, and tears filled the corners of her eyes again, like a flood that broke through the dam. She choked several times, and the anger in her heart condensed into sadness. The sadness caused her thoughts to surge, weighing heavily on her heart, blocking her mouth, making her want to say something but unable to.

Marenius just stood beside her and looked at her. He probably had no words of comfort to make this proud woman feel a little relieved.

She has to solve all kinds of pain by herself. After all, she is a woman who is unwilling to bow her head.

"Why did he do this?" Licinia held the letter and looked up at Marenius. Marenius knew Augusta's anger, so he quickly lowered his head and dared not look at Licinia.

Seeing that Marenius remained silent, he naturally didn't know the details. Licinia held back her tears and didn't let them continue to flow. She bit her lips tightly, but her eyes were fixed on the parchment letter. Maybe she was still not sure whether this was Luca's handwriting.

Marenius was curious about what was on the paper, but he recalled that when Luca handed the letter to him, his expression was solemn, which was so similar to Licinia's now.

Likinia kept sobbing softly, afraid that the sadness was welling up in her heart. She was so uneasy that her thoughts were churning. Everything good and bad, happy and sad, were twisted into a knot and stuck in her heart. She couldn't spit it out or swallow it down.

"Well, I already know that."

Liginia pretended to be calm as she whispered, carefully folded the parchment letter in her hand, and then put it in the pocket of her robe.

"There is nothing for you to do here, Lord Marenius." Liginia raised her head and said lightly. She looked so calm, as if she was not at all affected by such a separation.

Before Malenius could respond, Licinia turned around, took her daughter Eudolia's arm, and slowly walked into the gate of the Flavian Palace, which looked like a castle.

Watching the city gate slowly closing, Marenius still stood there blankly. He didn't know what to do next. When faced with the last task entrusted to him by Luca, who was determined to die, he just knew that he should do his best to complete it. But for some reason, when he finally arrived at the gate of the Flavian Palace, he didn't feel happy at all that he had faithfully completed Luca's entrustment. On the contrary, he felt endless loss. After all, there would be no new tasks after this.

After entering the Flavian Palace, Licinia did not get on the carriage to the inner palace, but slowly moved forward with Eudoria.

"Child, you have just arrived, so you need to get familiar with everything here. After all, this will be your home from now on."

Li Jinia whispered to Eudolia. Although Eudolia was just a child, she could hear the trembling in her mother's voice. She turned her head and saw her mother Li Jinia walking while secretly wiping away the tears that kept flowing from her eyes.

"Why are you crying, my mother?" Eudolia was a little puzzled. Although she knew that she was sent here by Luca, and although this guy whom she had only met a few times left a good impression on her, all the new things in front of her diluted her sadness. She might be touched and shocked by the beauty of the new things for a while, which made her unable to raise her sad emotions for a while. After all, she didn't know the truth of the matter yet.

But there is no need to worry about these. After all, she now has plenty of time to explore on her own or wait for her mother to tell her in person.

Seeing her mother sad, Eudolia had no interest in appreciating the palace. She focused all her attention on her mother and walked step by step into the inner palace.

Liginia took Eudolia back to her own bedroom, where Eudolia saw her younger brother who was only a few years old.

Little Leo sat on the bed, staring at Eudolia, the sister he had never met, with a pair of innocent eyes. His expression was dull, as if he was frightened.

Eudoria also widened her eyes. The siblings, who were ten years apart in age, were surprised that the other looked so similar to her, because they had the same father.

Especially Leo, he looks exactly like his father Luca, and almost combines all the advantages of Luca and Liginia.

"My child!" Likinia looked at Leo, she could no longer hold back her inner collapse of emotions, she rushed over, hugged the young Leo tightly, the tears that she had been holding back finally burst out, flowing down her cheeks.

"From now on, it's just the three of us, mother and son, who will depend on each other!" Li Jinia sobbed and pulled Eudolia into her arms. The three of them hugged each other tightly and did not separate for a long time.

The young Leo looked around with eyes wide open. Perhaps he didn't know what his future would be like yet. His father, Flavius ​​Luca, had indirectly handed over the entire stable Eastern Rome to his hands. As a transition, his mother Licinia would become the regent queen and assist him until he came of age and became a qualified Augustus.
