Chapter 1005 The Tribunal's Office

The next day, just as dawn, Feng Yu got up early. Unexpectedly, when he left the inner room, he saw that Bonnie, who was sleeping in the outer room of the suite, got up earlier than him. Moreover, Bonnie prepared all his toiletries for him, lowered her head and stood quietly aside.

After finishing washing, Feng Yu came to the table by himself. He took out a quill on the pen table, dipped it ink and wrote a large article on the parchment paper. Then he stamped his private stamp on it and added a seal.

At this time, Bonnie was still standing aside waiting for Feng Yu's instructions. Feng Yu handed the written parchment paper together with the slave contract certificate that was transferred to the hotel owner yesterday and said, "Bonnie, you will be a free person in the future and you will never have to be a slave again."

Bonnie was stunned at first, then took the two documents and looked at them a few times, but did not reveal the surprise expression that Feng Yu expected, but instead showed a bit of melancholy. Feng Yu saw this and said in confusion: "What, is there any problem?"

Bonnie immediately replied: "Master, Bonnie has no place to go after becoming a free man."

Feng Yu smiled and said, "When you were about to escape from the hotel last night, where were you going to escape."

Bonnie shook her head and said, "Master, Bonnie doesn't know either. Bonnie just doesn't want to be sold to a brothel, she just wants to escape first, and she doesn't know where to go after escaping." She paused and said, "So, so I don't want to be a free man."

Feng Yu said: "Actually, of course I can think of this. You are helpless and not a Latin person. It is so easy for a girl to find a place to live. So you don't have to leave after you are free. I can continue to hire you, so you can stay by my side to provide for me."

Only then did Bonnie accept Feng Yu's documents happily and said, "Bonnie, thank you master..." Feng Yu interrupted her again and said, "I won't use the title of master in the future, just call me..."

Feng Yu paused when he said this, because he couldn't think of any good title. There was no word corresponding to the lord in Latin, nor did he have a word corresponding to the "sir" in later generations. The word "Your Excellency" seemed a little bit new. Finally, Feng Yu decided to say, "Just call me general, anyway, I am now a legion commander waiting to take office."

Bonnie then replied: "Yes, General, Bonnie will do everything for the general in the future."

At this time, Feng Yu's entourage outside had already called them out for dinner. Today's breakfast was a beef-filled pasta, orange juice, and two fried eggs. Feng Yu looked at the thin Bonnie eating with relish and knew that she must be crude and unnutritious food on weekdays.

When everyone finished their meal, there was a loud footsteps outside the door. Two uniformed men appeared at the entrance of the hotel. It turned out that it was a messenger from the consul's office. They respectfully submitted the official document to Feng Yu. The official document was not a letter of appointment, but a notice, asking Feng Yu to go to the consul's office on Saturday, where there was an inauguration ceremony. At the ceremony, Alexander personally handed him the letter of appointment.

Feng Yu received the notice and asked in his heart why he had to wait until Saturday tomorrow. The police spoke again: "One Lord Feng Hu, there is another thing, Lord Kuntus, the civil protection official, asked me to inform you that you can go to the civil protection official office today, and he personally presided over the naturalization oath ceremony for you."

After the messenger left, Feng Yu immediately ordered the most luxurious carriage from the hotel and took Dian Qing and Simmons to the official office of Quentus. Unexpectedly, the groom did not recognize the road and inquire all the way around the city of Rome.

Simmons asked the groom in surprise, "Brother, you coachman haven't been long?"

"Where, I have driven a carriage for this Cedar Hotel for three years."

"Then why can't you even find the office of the civil servant protector? The office of the civil servant protector is not specialized in internal affairs. Should you deal with it frequently?"

The coachman sighed happily and said, "The guests don't know that although the Civil Protection Office is in charge of Roman internal affairs, we civilians will not go to them for daily affairs, but will look for the local branch of the Civil Protection Office. Although the Roman capital is the capital of Rome, there are still local government offices. In general, ordinary civilians like us can go directly to the Civil Protection Office to do business directly. And this official office is not very famous, so naturally not everyone knows it."

Dian Qing said to Feng Yu a little impatiently: "Lord, I think this Kuntus is too arrogant. Why are you also Alexander's guest of honor? For this reason, he should also send a carriage to pick us up. Is he despising his lord and not taking his lord seriously?"

Feng Yu said calmly without caring: "It is possible, but it may not necessarily mean this. This is Rome, not Middle-earth, and there are quite a difference in the customs of the two places. Therefore, we cannot look at the people here with the thinking of Middle-earth."

While they were talking, the coachman finally said in surprise: "Here, he has arrived, he finally found it!" While saying that, he called the horses to stay. Feng Yu and others came down to see nothing tall, but they didn't see any tall buildings, just an inconspicuous typical Hero-style building in the corner of the street. If there wasn't a bronze medal engraved with the official office of the civil guard at the door, no one would have thought that this was a yamen.

Feng Yu and others raised their legs and walked in. They passed a small garden that could be seen through at a glance. They were about to enter the hall, but were stopped by two guards at the entrance of the hall. After Feng Yu revealed his identity, a guard said politely: "It turns out to be Lord Feng Hu, and the civil guardian has been waiting for you. However, your two entourages need to wait in the yard."

Feng Yu winked at Dian Qing and Simmons, but Dian Qing looked like he wanted to say something. Feng Yu knew what he wanted to say and comforted him: "It's okay. The civil guard and I have already known each other a lot." After that, he walked in with great strides.

As soon as he entered the hall, he saw Quentus wearing formal clothes, waiting for him upright. In addition to him, there were some people who seemed to be clergy in Roman temples. Feng Yu knew that according to the historical process, although Christianity had been born for more than two hundred years, it was still too early to become the state religion of Rome and the traditional religion of the entire Western world. Now Roman religions still combine Greek myths, local myths and Nordic myths, and traditional religions with the three gods as the main objects of sacrifice. But Feng Yu doesn't know what these monks are doing now.

Kuntus stood up with a smile and said, "Hello Feng Hu, you are finally here. I have been waiting for you here for a long time."

Feng Yu also replied politely: "Thank you, Mr. Humin, for taking time to deal with my little matter on the weekend. I'm so sorry."
