Vol 8 Chapter 386: Marriage

Dido took a peek at Davers's expression, feeling hopeful, and immediately said loudly: "We want to make southern Iberia a free city in Dionia, like--"
Davers interrupted her without hesitation, and resolutely said: "The southern part of Iberia can only be fully incorporated into Dionia, under the direct jurisdiction of the kingdom. There is no other choice! If not, we would rather choose war! Regardless of whether Iberia is ruled by you or occupied by Iberian indigenous people, we will make it the territory of Dionia, no matter the price it pays! "
Dido did not expect that Davers would seal the words directly, there was no room for manoeuvre, and he felt panicked for a while, not knowing what to say.
"It seems that you don't have anything to talk about." Dafus sighed and said, "You, as a woman, dared to come here to negotiate alone, it is really daring and difficult, I Allow you to visit your loved ones, and then go back ... "
At this time, Hannipolis next reminded: "His Majesty, Lord Stacy Kodas said that Marco is seriously injured and needs quiet treatment, and does not want anyone to disturb-"
"My father ... he ... what's wrong with him?" Dido asked immediately when he heard this.
"On the day of the Battle of Sellinus, your father, Mago, was shot in the face by the flustered Numibians. When we found him, he was almost dead, thanks to our doctor's full rescue. This was out of danger, but kept unconscious ... "Henipolis said softly with sympathy.
"King Davis, I want to visit immediately ... my father! I hope you can approve! ..." said Dido, his eyes trembling with tears.
"... Okay." Dafs hesitated a little, then said to Hippopolis, "Go talk to Stacey Codas and say it's me, let this girl visit her. Father. "
"Yes, Your Majesty." Hippopolis stood up, walked to Dido, and said softly, "Come with me."
Dido wiped away his tears, stood up, and bowed respectfully to Daphs.
About 10 minutes later, Hippopolis returned.
After listening to his description of Dido's visit to Marco, Davers suddenly asked, "How old is this Marco's daughter?"
Hannipolis froze, looked at Daphs, his heart suddenly changed: wouldn't His Majesty see her?
But he said quickly: "Selofinis had previously told me about her. Let me think about it ... well, it seems not 23? 24."
"Slightly older." Dafoss' response gave Hernipris a stun, but he saw the King of Dionia tapping on the back of his chair, his eyes were distant, and what he was thinking, did not look at all Woman's happy expression.
……………………………………
Dido visited his unconscious father, but did not ask to visit Hasdrubba anymore, because she knew the cousin's temperament, and she might quarrel with herself after knowing the reason for her coming here.
After a bit of painful thinking at noon, Dido, who had made up his mind, asked Davis again for approval.
Dido, who entered the living room again, did not walk as loosely as when she left in the morning. She regained her mood and regained her calmness. After expressing her gratitude to Daves, she said bluntly, If I agreed to your request for the full integration of southern Iberia into the Kingdom of Dionia, how would you resettle the people and officials there? And ... how would you treat the Iberian captives from you? Soldiers and generals in the south? "
Davis did not answer immediately. He looked at Dido and asked seriously: "It is a very important decision concerning the future of the entire population of southern Iberia to join the entire southern Iberia into the Kingdom of Dionia. Will the people and officials there recognize the agreement you ultimately signed? "
"The colonies in southern Iberia are in fact ruled by our Magonids." Didoon raised his head with pride in his face and said indisputably: "I can assure you that I am on mission Dionysian has all the powers granted by all immediate members of the Magonid family, and any decision I make here will be recognized by them! "
Davis said with his head lightly, "If you take the initiative to join the Kingdom of Dionia, the people of southern Iberia will immediately become Dionian citizens and enjoy all the rights and rights that Dionian citizens shall enjoy. Undertaking its obligations, the Magonids can recommend several members to be the veterans of the kingdom after being examined by the Dionian Senate.
Officials in the southern part of Iberia continue to perform their duties, but at the same time they have to learn about Dionian law and adapt to the system of the Dionian Kingdom. After a year of assessment, they will decide whether to stay or be promoted ... I said This is only an approximation. The specific details need to be negotiated to elaborate. But now there is a problem ... "
Davis' face was embarrassed: "After your father led the army to Sicily, he burned down the three friendly allies of Dionia, Minoa, Agrigento, and Gela. These city-states these days The remnants of the Chinese have sent representatives to demand severe punishment for the culprits who destroyed their hometown.
To make matters worse ... your father had the army burn down all kingdoms in the kingdom, Catania, and kill the people. Even after the capture of the city of Paragonia, your father brutally ordered the killing of all captured Dionysian soldiers!
I once stood on the ruins of Palagonia, and vowed to all Dionysian soldiers who expeditioned to Sicily, to avenge these killed soldiers! According to the testimony of the captured Carthage soldiers, Marco and Hasdruba were the culprits causing this tragedy!
Therefore, in accordance with the request of the friendly messenger and fulfilling my vow, even if southern Iberia becomes the territory of Dionia, other captured Iberian soldiers will be released, and they will continue to be imprisoned until they are severely punished. Punishment! "
As soon as Dido heard that his father might be executed, he retorted loudly with anxiety: "How can I blame my father! This is war! War! Your Dionian army has not once sabotaged and killed in western Sicily. Civilians! Your fleet also landed in Africa, slaughtered and burned down Hadrumentum! According to what you just said, as the commander of the Dionysian army, should you also be avenged by the Carthaginians! "
Daphs was not irritated by her inarticulate words. He touched his jaw and said lightly, "Unfortunately, Dionia is the winner now."
Suddenly, Dido's words were suffocated, but she shouted more angry: "Since you do not plan to release my loved ones, even if all of our Magonids are killed, we will never surrender to Dionysian. Ya! "
Dido glared at Davers, while Daves looked calm.
At this time, Hippopolis interjected: "His Majesty, the Magonid family of Carthage has decided to surrender to the kingdom and become citizens of Dioria. This will allow us to end the war earlier. A good thing. But why do you have to punish the patriarch of the Magonid family ?! "
Dafs hesitated, and said a little embarrassingly, "I once promised Hades in public, how can I regret it ..."
Dido is a devout believer in the Carthaginian Tanit. She was even more desperate to hear this, because she knew that Hades was the protector of the Kingdom of Dionia. How dare the king of Onia betray his oath!
Hippopolis said, "Your Majesty, I have an idea that you can safely release Margot and Hasdrubba without being punished by Hades."
Daveston came in spirit: "Oh, talk about it!"
Dido also looked at the elegant Dionysian official, hoping that he could really come up with a good idea to relieve the dilemma of the matter.
Hippopolis did not immediately say the solution, but smiled at Dido and asked, "Are you engaged?"
Dido hesitated, but he didn't expect that he would say such a word, and immediately became angry and mixed with shyness and came to mind, she just wanted to have an attack.
Hannipolis then said straightforwardly: "This matter is very important. It is related to your father's life and death. You better answer truthfully."
When mentioning his father ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Dido nodded subconsciously: "No."
The patriarch of the Carthaginian Magonid family has an unmarried older daughter, which is well known. Now it is determined that she is not engaged. Hippopolis has settled in her heart and immediately told Daphs. : "Her Majesty, the sole niece of the Carthage Magonides family, Dido, is of noble descent and talent; His Highness Croto Catax is your sister-in-law, young and promising, and not yet married. I am willing Become the golden arrow in the hands of Eros, matchmaking for the two young people, let them be married.
In this way, Dido will become your daughter-in-law, and Ma Ge will become your in-laws. You are a descendant of the Hades, and Hades should see them as your relatives and forgive you. Swear. "
Having said that, Hippopolis turned to Dido and said, "Moreover, as your daughter-in-law, you can also let the people of Iberia and the Magonid family join the kingdom with ease, because you became Dai As a member of the Oniya royal family, you are more capable of caring for them, and will not let them suffer injustice ... "
Daphs rubbed his jaw and said with some emotion: "Well ... this method sounds good, it is good for Dionia and the southern colonies of Iberia ... I think Crotocatax That child should not object ... "
