Make Rome Great Again

Zhang Heng rushed to the palace before dark. And now he got closer to the guards outside the palace. They knew that he was someone that the emperor valued. So, they no longer stopped him when they saw him entering the palace.

However, it would be better if Zhang Heng was given access to a secret passage that led directly to Commodus's study room, like Altrus. Unfortunately, he realized it would be something he would never get.

Commodus's trust in Altrus had reached a level that no one could match, greatly surpassing the relationship between the emperor and an advisor.

From this standpoint, Zhang Heng could understand why the Balance Blade, which had considerable political resources, had to eliminate Altrus. Other than assassinating him, there was no other way for them to separate him from Commodus.
