I am the son of the traveler

Chapter 5 Seems like a dead end
"Your Majesty, Lord Senonides seeks an audience."

At this time, the voice of the guard captain Cronus sounded outside the door. Antigonus was not in the mood to see the nurturer, but his reason told him that he should go see him. After all, the other party was still on his side.

Thinking of this, he forcibly pulled himself together and said to the outside: "Let him in."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Cronus' respectful voice outside the door: "Master Senonides, please come in."

"Hmm." Another voice sounded, and then the door of the palace was pushed open from the outside, and an old man wearing a long coat of Himatian walked in. It was an old man over half a century old, with a weather-beaten face , two deep-set eyes, deep and bright, seem to contain infinite wisdom, his short golden curly hair is neatly combed, and the bushy beard is connected with the sideburns, from a distance, it seems that the hair and the beard are connected together .

He is Senonides, the breeder of the Macedonian court, because the ancient Greeks generally only have names but not names, so he is called Senonides. If you expand it further, you can contact his father’s name, Ali Senonides, son of Stophanes.

As a patriarch who has served as the nurturer since the time of King Philip, Senonides and the philosopher Nicoleides are the most respected pair in the court, and even the companion cavalrymen who grew up with Antigonus All are their students.

The instinct in his body drove Antico to take the initiative to walk towards Senonides. He leaned forward slightly, put his right hand on his left chest, gave a chest salute, and said respectfully: "Teacher, you are here."

"Well, I heard you were attacked, so I came to see you." With a kind smile on his face, Senonides stretched out his dry hand like a bone to stroke Antigonus's hair, as if Looking at his son, "I'm relieved that you're fine."

"Blessed by Zeus, I escaped unharmed." Antigonus sighed and said, "It's just that I was grounded by my mother after I came back. I think I may stay in this palace for the rest of my life."

Hearing this, the smile on Senonides' face disappeared, he was a little displeased, and scolded: "You are the king of Macedonia, how can she ground you?"

"Teacher, in your eyes, I am still the king of Macedonia, but in the eyes of her and the people around her, I am nothing." Antigonus said bitterly, "Even the disabled people who stay around her are nothing. Dare to despise me."

"It's really outrageous!" Senonides was so angry that his chest heaved. Antigonus had always been very well-behaved and would not take the initiative to tell them even if he was wronged. Now he changed his previous temper and took the initiative to tell them. , then as a teacher, Senonides has the obligation to stand up for his favorite student.

He looked at his "pretty and pitiful" disciple in front of him, his eyes were full of love and compassion, and he said, "You take a rest first, the teacher will help you out, how can the king of Macedon be suppressed by a woman?"

"it is good……"

Antico really didn't expect that Senonides' reaction would be so big, and he was a little secretly happy. He just wanted to see if his teacher would stand up for him, so he showed a wronged look.However, the role he can play for Senonides is really uncertain-after all, he is just a royal tutor who teaches the royal family and noble children, and does not hold real power.

Senonides, who was furious, comforted Antigonus again, and then left the palace angrily. Cronus outside the door looked at this scene in amazement, and was a little speechless. It was the first time he saw Seonides. When Nonides got so angry, the teacher in his impression was always kind and kind, but once he got serious, even if the king himself was standing in front of him, he would speak bluntly and not give the other party any face.

Antigonus didn't know this, he was complacent about his action of getting Euphemia into trouble, and his mood improved a lot, so he went to take a bath and change clothes, humming the tune of the catchy music of later generations.

What he didn't know was that Senonides didn't go directly to the theory of Euphemia after leaving the palace. He wisely found an ally, that is, the court philosopher Nicoleides, who was He also felt dissatisfied after hearing about this incident, so he followed Senonides to find the Euphemia theory.

Because of Antigonus, the attitude of the two old men towards Euphemia was not very good. They beat up the queen mother with guns and sticks, and reminded her to pay attention to her identity. People have no right to force Euphemia to return power, but their mouths are sharp. After a reprimand, Euphemia's face is ugly, and the white, red, and blue turns alternately, as if opening a dyeing factory.

It wasn't until the two old men left that Euphemia was so angry that she threw the things in the room and vented her anger. If it weren't for the high prestige of Senonides and Nicolides, she couldn't afford to offend her, and she would have So he took revenge.

After a burst of smashing, Euphemia was still angry. She reached out and patted her chest that was rising and falling due to anger. A hint of malice flashed through her eyes. Since they wanted to protect Antico, then she would specialize in Antico. Well, Ke, since he is not her biological flesh and blood, even if he is killed, he will not feel any distress.

Thinking of this, she called her cronies and asked them to summon her brother and the priest of the holy secret ceremony into the palace to discuss the next countermeasures.It is precisely because of the support of the holy priests responsible for interpreting the oracle that Euphemia can gain such power. Her family has also become the most prominent family in Pella City, and family members also occupy many positions in the kingdom. For example, Alseas, the chief of foreign affairs, is her father, the chief of clerks is her younger brother Tarkos, and the captain of the guard is her brother, Opolemus.

Diplomatic power, financial power and the security of the palace are all controlled by her family. As long as she can also get the position of military consul, her family will really be able to cover the sky with only one hand - no, it is already close, because the military The consul Nicanor will marry Eupheemia's sister in two months. As long as the marriage is successful, the Macedonian kingdom may change at any time.

Of course, Antigonus didn't know all this, and in fact, apart from the Euphemia family and Nicanor himself, very few people in the whole kingdom knew about it. If Antigonus hadn't inherited his cheap father If the system is used, it is estimated that this life is over, there is no solution to the situation - even if he leads 150 loyal cavalry partners to launch a coup, under the ruthless suppression of the army, the only end is failure.
