To complicate matters further for Gratian, certain among Valentinian's generals then promoted his four-year-old second son Valentinian II (Gratian's half brother), the army on the Danube acclaiming him augustus in a palatine coup[25] at Aquincum (Budapest) on 22 November 375, despite Gratian's existing prerogatives.[1][15] The young Valentinian II was essentially the subject of the influence of his courtiers and mother, the Arian Christian Justina.[15] Gratian's tutor, Ausonius, became his quaestor, and together with the magister militum, Merobaudes, the power behind the throne.[25] Negotiations eventually left Gratian as the senior western emperor.[25] Valens and Valentinian II were consuls for the year 376, Valens's fifth consulship.[13] Neither Gratian or Valentinian travelled much, which was thought to be due to not wanting the populace to realise how young they were.	./cache/en-wikipedia-org-8667.html	./txt/en-wikipedia-org-8667.txt
