The tallest building was six or seven stories high. Gu Xi didn’t know what materials were used, but she felt that although the architecture of Rome could not be compared with modern ones, it was still far superior to that of the former An Ning Kingdom in terms of technology.

Rome was not built in a day; it was the result of hundreds and thousands of years of hard work by craftsmen.

Just because of the war, the city looks very dilapidated.

There were not many pedestrians on the street, and even if there were people passing by, they were in a hurry.

There were not many guards on the city wall, and there were piles of corpses outside the city.

Gu Xi saw the most magnificent building complex in the city and guessed it might be the imperial palace, so he flew in.

After landing, she flashed into the space, wanting to see if Alexander had switched over.

Seeing his clear eyes, Gu Xi guessed that this was still the modern Alexander.

she asked:

"Alexander, can you take a break and let him out? I need his help to find his original body so that his soul can return to its rightful place."

Alexander shook his head blankly.

"I don't know how to get him out."

Gu Xi asked:

"So how do you usually switch? Is it scheduled or are there any special circumstances?"

Alexander:

"The time is not fixed. It seems to be related to my mood. Whenever I feel particularly depressed, he will suppress me."

Gu Xi said:

"Then think about it, what can make you depressed?"

Alexander closed his eyes, but the harder he tried, the less effective it was.

Normally, he wanted to wake up, but was always suppressed. Now, he wanted the other party to come out, but the other party couldn't come out.

Gu Xi said disappointedly:

"Forget it, I'll just figure it out on my own."

Gu Xi flashed out of the space, and after a while, he grabbed a palace maid and brought her in.

The palace maid looked at Gu Xi in panic, shouting:

"General, please spare my life, General, please spare my life!"

It seems that she mistook Gu Xi for Maxi's person.

Gu Xi asked Alexander to come over.

When the maid saw Alexander, she was shocked.

"Your Majesty, are you awake?"

Gu Xi uses mind reading.

The maid thought: "Great! If His Majesty the Emperor wakes up, he can drive away the rebels and I can survive!"

So it seems that Alexander is still alive, and Gu Xi feels relieved.

Otherwise, if she forced his soul out but lost his body, would she have to carry a ghost with her every day?

Alexander looked at the maid curiously and asked:

"who are you?"

The maid said excitedly:

"I am the Queen Mother's maid. You have been in a coma for two months. The Queen Mother prayed for you every day. You are awake now, it must be God's blessing. I will tell the Queen Mother, she will be very happy!"

After the maid finished speaking, she looked around and was stunned.

This isn't the palace. Where did she suddenly go? Was she dreaming?

Gu Xi said to Alexander:

"Let her take us to where the emperor rests."

Alexander said as Gu Xi requested, and then in a flash, they arrived at the palace.

The maid was stunned.

Under great pressure, he urged:

"Hurry up and lead the way."

The palace maid, who was a little dazed, came to her senses, a hint of panic appeared in her eyes, and she hurried forward. She wanted to report to the empress dowager that the emperor had woken up, but was acting strangely.

Gu Xi had been using mind reading skills on her. When he heard her inner voice, he secretly sighed that Emperor Alexander lacked prestige and the palace maids obviously listened to the Queen Mother more.

"It seems that this emperor is a mama's boy!" said Gu Xi.

Alexander, who just switched over: "..."

Do you want to be so blunt?

However, this is indeed true.

Alexander had a sad expression and a deep voice:

"You're right! I'm sorry for Anna. Mother always said she was doing it for my own good, but what did Anna do wrong? She banished her just because she couldn't give birth to a child."

"Hey, you're back?" Gu Xi looked at Alexander.

Alexander nodded:

"I felt a familiar breath and woke up."

Gu Xi asked with a gossipy look on his face:

"Who is Anna? Your wife?"

Alexander nodded again:

"Yes, Anna is my wife, my only love. A year ago, Anna was exiled to the Sahara Desert by my mother."

It seems that this is still a family ethics drama, the conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

Chu Zhao finished off the attack and also expressed his loyalty to love:

"Axi said you were a mama's boy, and it turned out that she was right. Since Anna is your lover, why did you agree to exile her? If it were me, I would rather give up the world than let you down, and I would definitely go find her."

Alexander's eyes were filled with deep sadness:

"I went looking for her. I searched for two months but there was no trace of her. Then I heard about Maxi's rebellion, so I had no choice but to come back."

Gu Xi looked at him sympathetically, he and A Zhao were a natural match, his parents-in-law and parents were all very nice people, and they could not empathize with Alexander's pain.

Chu Zhao said:

"Your mother must be a vicious stepmother! She deliberately breaks up lovers."

Alexander looked sullen:

"You are not allowed to say that about my mother. She is a very great mother. When I was young, it was she who supported me to ascend to the position of emperor. When the country was in turmoil, it was also my mother who turned the tide. Otherwise, the Roman Empire would not have survived until now."

Oh, it turns out she’s a heroine!

Alexander ascended the throne at a young age and could only rely on his mother to manage the country. So even though he was an emperor, he obeyed his mother's orders.

Even though his mother went against his wishes and exiled his wife, he did not dare to fall out with her.

As they were chatting, the palace maid who had just appeared came running back with some people.

The woman in the lead was about fifty years old, graceful and imposing.

Alexander bowed instinctively and called out:

"Mother."

Alexander's mother was named Julia. When she heard the report from the maid, she hurried over immediately.

"Alexander?" Yulia's eyes were filled with excitement when he saw his son come back to life.

She came over and held out her arms.

Alexander immediately lowered his head, bent down, and hugged his mother.

"Kid, you finally woke up."

Yulia reached out and patted Alexander on the back, as usual.

Suddenly, her hand stopped.

Then he pushed Alexander away.

Look at him with scrutiny.

It’s okay that his clothes are weird, but why can’t we feel the scars on his body?

As Alexander's mother, she knew every wound on her son's body clearly.

But the man in front of her, although his face was exactly the same as Alexander's, was definitely not her son!

"Who are you?" Yulia's eyes were cold. She waved her hand and a team of guards surrounded her.

Alexander said helplessly:

"Mother, it's really me, Alexander. But something is special. Although I'm back now, this body is not mine. Where is my body now?"
