Queen's death 柏杨 1868Words 2018-03-14
This action of Mr. Antony enraged Mr. Octavian and the citizens of Rome.Especially Mr. Octavian, he not only went to Egypt for his sister, but Mr. Anthony, not alone, he also brought an elite army under his command, which would cause the division of the empire.Thus, two close friends set off a big battle for a beautiful woman to take over the situation.Historians can find a hundred reasons, plausibly and citing classics, saying that the great war happened because of this or that, but in fact it was just for a beautiful and charming woman.Husband, "once you look into the city, and then into the country", no matter whether you are in the city or in the country, blood will flow.In the end, the huge navies of the two sides opened fire in the Eastern Mediterranean, hand in hand, and the killing was loud. The spectacular and fierce scene, the reader, has already seen it in the movie "Cleopatra".On the second day of the war, the situation was a little bit unfavorable for Mr. Anthony-victory and defeat are commonplace in military affairs, and a little unfavorable situation is even more commonplace in military affairs.

However, Ms. Cleopatra, at this critical juncture, revealed her cunning femme fatale character.Anyone would think that she would fight to the end with her husband and live and die together.However, the characteristic of the cunning femme fatale is that they can only share happiness but not adversity, even if they are as close as husband and wife.Woohoo, husband and wife are originally birds in the same forest, and when disaster strikes, they fly separately.At that moment, Lady Cleopatra canceled the vows she had made over and over again a minute before.What she pursues is not love, but glory and power. She cannot die with Mr. Anthony. She is still young. This year, 31 BC, she is thirty-six years old, which is the pinnacle of beauty.She is determined to abandon Anthony, retain her strength, and use her beauty to find another backer—of course the victor, Mr. Octavian.

As soon as I write this, I wish the reader not to meet a Cleopatra-type woman in his whole life, otherwise, you must always be strong, and if you fail, you will shave your head and slap your face, and it is over.But what is embarrassing is that Cleopatra's stunt-type women are all beautiful, talented, tender, and passionate, how can people tell them apart. True love is that loving the other person is the same as loving yourself, and even loving the other person deeper than loving yourself.A Cleopatra-type woman, although she loves each other, in fact she only loves herself, and loves herself far more than she loves each other.When the guy brought her glory, power, money, she loved him like hell.

When this guy couldn't bring her these things, and became a stumbling block for her to get them, the love disappeared, and even hated him to the bone, killing him instantly. ——Readers, grandma, don’t be overwhelmed, thinking that my old man only talks about grandma, and most of the stinky show people are Cleopatra type, and he loves himself far more than his wife. Since Ms. Cleopatra had other plans, she ordered the Egyptian fleet to leave the battlefield and retreat to the Nile on her ship.Mr. Anthony, who was directing the battle ahead, even a thunderbolt on the head could not shock him so much. In an instant, this experienced veteran was so confused that he made an unexpected decision.If he continued to fight bravely, at least he still had the possibility of victory, but he ordered his ship to turn around and pursue Cleopatra.Since the ships retreated, the entire army lost its commander, and it was only natural that they collapsed.

Why Mr. Anthony is so, most historians, especially those who are highly educated in literature, explain that he loves Lady Cleopatra too much.She has become his master, and he cannot lose her.However, Mr. Bo Yang thinks there is another possibility, that is, he wants her to order the Egyptian fleet to return and rejoin the battle.There is also a possibility that her rebellion before the battle has caused irreparable doom, and he will take revenge on her face to face. Anyway, anyway, Mr. Anthony did not catch up with his sweet wife. After the navy failed, he reorganized his army in Egypt, and the army collapsed, and Mr. Anthony committed suicide.The hero who avenged his adoptive father Mr. Caesar, the speech that turned things around in the Roman Forum is still the main textbook of "crowd psychology".Even God himself would have done nothing more than that kind of miracle.However, he sacrificed his life for a rotten woman who only loved him.Whether we say he is infatuated or Ms. Cleopatra is vicious, it doesn't help this sad ending.

Now Lady Cleopatra began to capture Mr. Octavian, and she more skillfully used all the means she had to conquer Caesar and control Antony, her beauty and high intelligence that depended on her success, coupled with her queen Due to her noble status, Mr. Octavian really jumped into her trap again, and promised her to bring her back to Rome to enjoy the world's top glory and wealth together. Ms. Cleopatra rejoiced secretly in her heart, and she might also laugh at all the stinky men in the world who are sluts fired in a broken kiln, like a conceited old lady in Taipei who fainted just by clapping her hands.However, just before Xingxing left for Rome, he suddenly discovered that Mr. Octavian not only did not faint, the reason why he did this was not because he loved her, but because he wanted to trick her into Rome and teach her to walk around naked , let the Romans see the face of this stunner.

So, it was Cleopatra's turn to be shocked. She finally met a stronger opponent than her, and she completely lost her confidence.She could only weep, hoping that Mr. Octavian would not be so ruthless—she forgot how merciless she was to Mr. Antony.In the end, she taught the maid to put a poisonous snake on her feet, let the snake bite her, wailed and died on her imperial couch. Ms. Cleopatra's dramatic tragic end, sexual psychologists blame her nose is too high, otherwise, world history may be rewritten.Smelly men have their own preferences, and Mr. Octavian just doesn't like a nose that is too high, so he can stay awake.

Lady Cleopatra died, and the kingdom of Ptolemy, which had been established for 276 years, also died.
