Eagle Flag of Epirus

Vol 4 Chapter 13: Old man

The problem of the property of Tripolis is undoubtedly a matter of the Moria nobles who have always been in their throats, and they are very dissatisfied with Justinian's rough behavior. The Byzantine Empire has gone through hundreds of years, and their various family inheritances can be traced back for a long time. Although the Moria family is different from the Orientalists and the Macedonian aristocracy, which has always dominated the political situation of the Byzantine Empire, it is still very important. A force, and Justinian's desire to bypass them and damage their interests in Moriah is completely idiotic.

And Justinian also understands this. Although these nobles have been deprived of their fiefdom by the Achaia vassal state, they are still an important political force. It is not a wise decision to break openly with them, otherwise Epirus and Nicaea would not have been trying to win over this noble group. But Justinian finally got to the point, and he didn't give the Moria nobles a little room to win him over, and went straight into the negotiation.

For a while, the faces of the nobles present here were very ugly, and Duke Leo also showed a surprised look. In his opinion, it was undoubtedly very unwise for Justinian to do so.

"Your Excellency Justinian, I think you should have misunderstood something—" Leosgros was about to turn the subject off, but then he was interrupted by Justinian.

"Oh, isn't it? Then I don't think there is anything to talk about today." Justinian said coldly.

The hall suddenly became quiet, and anyone could hear the chill in that sentence, including the young aristocrats who stood aside, even if they didn't understand the inside story. No one has ever dared to speak to the nobles of Moria like this on such an occasion, and Leosgros was equally anxious. He looked at Justinian and was puzzled. Is the young man in front of him stupid? Do you know the weight of these nobles? They are the highest level in this country! Even if the emperor has to worry about their thoughts, a noble may be nothing, but a group of nobles can easily make a person, or easily destroy a person! It seems that they have no fief now, but they still have a huge power. If Justinian completely offends them, then his plan may be completely disrupted.

But the most surprising thing was Alslan. In his eyes Justinian should be as cunning as a fox, but at this time he was like a lone wolf paranoidly competing against the lions for the prey in front of him, unwilling to take a step back. .

This is not Justinian’s style at all. The nobles also put down their wine glasses and looked at this time, and I saw Justinian staring at the eyes of the nobles, they all wanted to see from each other’s eyes. Uneasy.

But whether it was Justinian or the old and strong nobles, they did not give their opponents a chance, but the atmosphere remained tense.

Arslan tensed his body subconsciously. Now they are on each other's territory. If someone is unruly, it would be terrible. By then, he might not even be able to protect himself. It stands to reason that smart people should have the sense of "tolerance", and Justinian is no exception. Why is he so impulsive now? There is only one explanation, that is, this young man has the reason for doing this and he is confident that the Moria nobles dare not act rashly.

I saw the nobles sitting still, saying nothing, as if this matter had nothing to do with them, and Justinian's words didn't seem to irritate them.

"Your Excellency Justinian, I know your dissatisfaction with us. This is the most common problem for young people. They think that the future belongs to them, but in fact it is not. Maybe your victory in the Alfios I am dizzy, but I still want to remind you that a person's strength is weak, and it is because we appreciate your strength, young people, that we are welcome to come among us." At this moment, an old voice sounded.

The arrival of this person completely dissipated the originally tense atmosphere in the hall for a time. The nobles who had been standing there immediately dispersed and gave way, and even Leosgros looked serious. It was obvious that the identity of the visitor was. It's not easy. I saw a trembling skinny old man walked out of the crowd

"Thank you for your interest, Anastasius is tyrannical, but I am not interested in it." To everyone's expectation, Justinian directly called out the other's name, even the nobles of Moriah. A little moved, even the younger generation of nobles have not even heard of this name.

But they all know what the title of dictatorship means, that is only qualified to be granted by extremely prominent nobles and royal families.

And when Justinian blurted out his name~www.ltnovel.com~ the old man's eyes flashed slightly, and he waved his hand faintly, and exclaimed: "I didn't expect anyone to remember my name! I have to say that His Majesty Muzfius has chosen a good person to complete his unfinished business. The Latins call you [Little Fox], which is indeed worthy of the name. Then I think what you have just done should be It’s all to see me! But after all, I’m still younger, and I’m always so anxious to do things. Before I talk about important things, I think I’d better fill my stomach first!"

The Moriad authoritarian seemed very approachable, and under his sign, all the nobles, including Leos Gross, sat back in silence, and Justinian could not see the wavering in the eyes of any superior nobles. Come. All the great nobles who have the head and face obviously don't dare to show no respect for this old man, including Leosgros. Seeing the appearance of this old man who has always been in the simplest sense, he was also deeply jealous.

The Grand Duke Anastasius is a great nobleman who has existed for a long time. He is now more than 80 years old. He has witnessed the rise and fall of the dynasty, and his status and identity can be imagined. Some people even rumored that he may belong to the former royal family. The descendants were later sealed in Moria as an idle nobleman. It was just hearing before, but with the invasion of the Latins, the great prince behind the scenes came into sight, making all Moria nobles feel that this old man was not easy.

As for Justinian, he was also on the verge of an enemy. He didn't know that there was such an existence in Moria before, but later he caught the opportunity to detect the clues and chose to change his plan. But when he really met the decaying old man in front of him, Justinian became more and more aware of the unfathomable depth of the authoritarian in front of him. He was not like a decaying old man at all, and he was Justinian's biggest opponent in this trip.
