He followed a social policy, completed many architectural programmes and financially helped cities of the empire, wherever there was any need. He clashed with the senate and favoured officers from the province of Asia. He successfully faced Saturninus' conspiracy, but in 96 AD he was murdered by a plot in which his wife also took part. He was punished by the senate with a damnatio memoriae.
