After listening to what Yushu said, Fusu couldn't help but feel a little guilty in his heart.

Since he made a marriage contract with Sophie, in recent days, he has either dealt with various political affairs in the study, or listened to the holy will in the court, and the rest of the time has been spent accompanying the daughters and his two lovely little daughters.

So much so that for so long, he has been ignoring Sophie, and he has indeed snubbed her a little.

"Well, since you've said so, can I still go?"

Fusu pinched Yushu's face dotingly.

After all, Sophie is already his unmarried wife anyway.

Seven days later, Sophie will officially enter the prince's mansion and become his rightful wife, and she will also be the prince's concubine in the prince's mansion.

"By the way, I was able to go to the Roman mission and get a feel for what Scipio was saying. "

"Now that Rome is under the threat of the Carthaginian army, a large part of the country is at risk of falling, Scipio should be unable to sit still, and he is about to ask for support from our Daqin~. "

A smile appeared on Fusu's lips.

As long as Scipio sent a letter to Great Qin asking for reinforcements, then Great Qin would be able to move his army into Roman territory as a matter of course.

With the help of the battle with Hannibal's Carthaginian army, in addition to making the world more clearly aware of Great Qin's powerful military capabilities, it can also take this opportunity to deepen Great Qin's influence in Rome.

This is undoubtedly of great significance for the annexation of Rome, Carthage, and even the entire Western Regions by Great Qin in the future.

"No wonder Sister Yu Ji said that her husband is a model worker, and now it seems that he really lives up to his name, and he can't forget the future development and political affairs of Daqin anywhere. "

Looking at Fusu's appearance, Yu Shu shook his head with a smile, and the two shallow pear vortices were full of smiles.

"Okay, it's okay for Yu Ji to tease and ridicule Ben Fujun on weekdays, but I didn't expect you to learn Yushu too. "

"It seems that today Ben Fujun must demonstrate to you by word and deed, so that you can see what a real model worker is!"

Roman Minister's Reception, in the room of Scipio the Younger.

"I heard that not long ago, Hannibal led his Carthaginian army to raid the garrison of our Roman line, which led to the total destruction of the Roman garrison, and even the walls of the defense line were occupied by them. "

"It stands to reason that our Roman defense line is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the Carthaginian army that allowed Hannibal to attack for several years is still unmoving, how could the iron wall, which is known as the strongest defense of my Rome, be captured by the Carthaginians overnight?"

"Now that we have lost this defensive wall, and a large part of Rome is under the watchful eye of the Carthaginian army, the situation in our Rome is not optimistic. "

A Roman envoy said worriedly.

"It is said that it was because of Hannibal's arrangement of suspicious troops, showing in front of the public that he was going to retreat, and also letting a small part of his main force really withdraw far away from the defensive line, which made our Roman garrison suspicious, thinking that the Carthaginian army had really retreated, so they relaxed their vigilance and began to indulge in singing and dancing. "

"Who knew that the Carthaginian army had not left at all, so we took advantage of the great celebration of our Roman garrison and carried out a surprise attack on their encampment, and our garrison was completely wiped out, and the walls of the defense line naturally fell into the hands of the Carthaginians. "

"But what I can't understand is that since my Rome has been designated as a marriage state with Great Qin, why did His Excellency Scipio delay asking Great Qin for support?"

"If it drags on like this, if Carthage launches a fierce attack on those areas that have lost the protection of the Roman army, then I am afraid that all the lands of Rome that have come from the defense line will fall. "

The head of the Roman delegation said anxiously.

Although Rome was once extremely strong, and its territory even once spanned the entire Eurasian continent, but now its national strength has been very weak, and under the rule of many nobles who do not want to make progress and only covet profits, it is constantly worried about internal and external, and the land area is not as good as before.

All the land from the outside of the defense line to the inside of Rome doesn't seem to be too big, and when you put it here in Daqin, it is at best the specifications of a county, which is not very vast.

But the key point is that from the walls of the defensive line to the end of the Roman land, it is the most important capital of Rome, where almost all the most powerful people in Rome are concentrated, and it can be said that they represent half of Rome.

Therefore, even though the area of these lands is not vast, it is crucial for Rome and must not be lost.

"Now that Rome is under foreign invasion and the situation is tense, I understand your anxiety, because I am as anxious as everyone else. "

"However, my uncle has already sent me a letter about this matter, and my uncle means to hold the army for the time being, first strengthen the supervision of the Carthaginian army, and the main force of the Roman army will always be around to prevent the Carthaginian army from repeating its old tricks and suddenly attacking. "

"It wasn't until Sophie married the prince of Fusu that we asked for help from Daqin as a brother-in-law, and then united our Roman army to destroy Scipio's Carthaginian army in one fell swoop. "

Scipio the Younger hesitated for a moment, then answered the messengers.

As soon as Scipio and his consul Hu Cong discussed the outcome of the settlement of Hannibal, he immediately passed the letter to Scipio the Younger, who was far away in Great Qin, and explained his decision to him.

"Why do you want to delay until after Princess Sophie and Prince Fusu get married? After these days of travel, I believe that everyone already knows the strength of Great Qin. "

"According to the lower officials, there is no need for us to take such a big risk, as long as the army of Great Qin is willing to take the horse, I am afraid that it will only take half a day to completely annihilate the Carthaginian army that is cowering within the walls of the defensive line!"

The head of the Roman legation was even more puzzled.

After all, there was a solution to the Carthaginian army once and for all, but Scipio insisted on delaying it until Sophie and Fusu became married.

In this way, he really did not see any benefit in the slightest, except that the vast army and the Roman capital were exposed to this great risk.

"I wonder if Scipio mentioned in his letter when he made these decisions, and what was the reason for his actions?"

The head of the Roman legation opened his mouth and asked the Taoist.
