Eagle Flag of Epirus

Vol 4 Chapter 8: prom

"Sure enough, he is just a hairy boy who has never seen the world. Nicki Fruss entertains them and counts him." An aristocrat in the small living room sneered.

Although the Moria nobles hiding in Fort Wiscari are like crucian carp who crossed the river, only these nobles are really important, and Leos Grace, the lord of Corinth, is naturally among them. The people they sent had been observing Justinian in secret, and after some exploration, they were not as concerned about Justinian as before.

"The kid saw Nicky Fruss at first sight. I was afraid he thought he was our representative. However, when he knows the truth, his face won't look good!" Thinking of using this method to kill and investigate. Stinney's arrogance, the aristocrats' anger that had been suffocated because of the separation of the land finally disappeared temporarily, and they laughed with their palms.

Justinian was unhappy at the reception of such a low-status middle-class nobleman like Nikki Fruss. To them, it seemed that such an inexperienced kid was nothing to worry about.

But at this moment, George Frontier, who was with them, showed a different view.

"You guys are too ridiculous for this kind of boring thing! Could it be that it is because of the current situation that it is a pleasure to tease a little guy? Besides, you might look down on that little guy too much. If it was he deliberately I’m afraid I’m making a joke for you,” Earl George said lightly, but everyone can understand the irony in the words. This is why Earl George doesn’t get along well with the Moria nobles. The biggest reason is the man's outspoken heart. Coupled with Nicaea behind him, George was even more speechless.

If it weren't for him to be the representative of the Lascaris family, and the Moria nobles were unwilling to tear their face with Nicaea, they would not want to work with them and they would have to drive him out of here! After hearing the sarcasm in Earl George's words, the expressions of several nobles changed in time, but they finally resisted the attack.

However, a nobleman did not show weakness, and retorted: "Why are you dissatisfied with this kind of thing? Is it because you have had the same experience with this kid and therefore feel sorry for each other?"

As soon as this sentence was uttered, the nobles in the room also sneered, and George also understood that this was a mockery of his lack of background, and he had come to this point completely by nepotism. This has always been a pain point for this man. The Byzantine Empire built a country with military merit. Since there is no good noble origin, then if you want to get ahead, you must have strong military achievements. This is precisely what Earl George did not possess. He was a vassal of the Lascaris family, and he was promoted to the frontier only because of the favor of Emperor Constantine. That's why he came to the Peloponnese and wanted to show off his skills and recruit Moria's old nobles for his master, so that his title would become more legitimate.

But now it seems that his origin has become a huge obstacle. The two sides looked at each other not pleasing to the eye, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense at this moment.

But at this moment, Leosgros, who had been silent for a long time, finally stopped the quarrel between the two sides.

"Everyone, with all due respect, this is not the time for us to quarrel. Your Excellency George, why are you so unhappy about our invitation to Governor Justinian this time? Although we have not yet explicitly agreed to the invitation of Emperor Lascaris, But it didn't fall to Epirus. After all, this important matter has to be considered for a long time!"

"From a long-term perspective, but I have been here for nearly a year, Your Excellency Leo, you'd better express your position as soon as possible, because this is what the Emperor meant." Earl George's face was full of displeasure, "The next thing is for you all. Let's talk, I won't bother." After speaking, the man once again walked away in front of the Moria nobles, completely without polite meaning, and added to the ill feelings of the Moria nobles.

With a bang, the door was doubled and closed. Seeing that the person they hated was leaving, the other nobles watched as they looked at Duke Leo, who looked forward to their horses, to test his attitude and said: "Your Excellency, it seems that Nice is really there. I can’t hold back anymore, then shall we..."

"Don't pay attention." Looking at George Frontier's rude behavior, even if he has such a good manner, there is a trace of haze in his eyes, Leo sneered slightly, "Now it is different from before, if I didn't guess Wrong, before Epirus attacked Achaia, you guys had actually given up hope just like me, and were ready to go to Nicaea to become a wealthy and leisurely veteran and aristocrat, giving up the fief handed down from generation to generation and confessing fate, right?"

Duke Leo’s so straightforward words made many nobles a little embarrassed~www.ltnovel.com~ but he had no choice but to nod his head, he was right. They had already accepted their fate before, after all, the Achaia horde has become a climate, but they have been bargaining with Nicaea and have never reached an agreement.

"Your Excellency, what do you mean..."

"Do we still have to agree to the harsh conditions of Nicea? I am afraid that Nicea is also anxious now. The moment Epirus captured the Southern Peloponnese, George's wishful thinking was completely defeated. It's messed up. And we have no reason to compromise with the Lascaris family."

"Do you mean to fall to the Dukas family?" After hearing Duke Leo's words, the other great nobles were also secretly shocked. This man had a big holiday with the Dukas family, didn't he care. Unable to make a mistake.

"The Komunen family and the Dukas family were also feuds, but they eventually became close allies." Leos Grace replied with a smile, but he actually had no meaning in his words. It was revealed that Komunen used Ducas to ascend to the throne, and he also had the same ambitions. The Lascaris family of Nicaea won the throne with Princess Anna Angelina, so he can do the same.

"That's why you have to win Justinian, so that we stand on Mikhail's side, and then our fief will be regained." A nobleman immediately said, if this is true, it would be better than standing in Nepal. West Asia is much better.

"But how to convince that kid is the key."

"It's okay, there will be a way at that time. Isn't the prom tonight the best opportunity?" Leos Grace has already planned everything. In his eyes, everything can be measured by money, including loyalty. , As long as the price is right, there can be shaken.
