Eagle Flag of Epirus

Chapter 2: Preparation before fleeing

"Epirus, that's the fief of Count Mikhail. It's too far away...it's too far away!" Muzfeus was taken aback for a moment, wondering what Justinian's intentions were. You must know Epiru. Sko was at the westernmost point of the Roman Empire, and fleeing there was not only a trek to obstruct the waves and mountains, but also meant that the Latins along the way would be very dangerous to interrogate. Both Trabizon and Nicaea should be relatively safer.

Just listen to Justinian saying plausibly: "But Nicaea and Trabizon don’t need you, Your Majesty. What's more, Nicaea is still in danger in front of the latin’s iron hoof. Going there is dangerous and no one will protect you. The safety of life, and more importantly, for those exiled nobles, your disappearance as a hastily elected emperor is the best. To go to Epirus, first of all, Earl Mikhail belongs to Alex III. Cousin, also belongs to the Dukas family with you, at least he has no need to get rid of you. Secondly, if he wants to win the emperor’s golden crown, it is the wisest behavior to accept you and obtain the status of co-ruling emperor. Finally. It’s not a nine-dead life to go to Epirus. A large number of refugees are fleeing there at this time. Even if they are screened, the Latins will eventually give us an opportunity to take advantage of. Are you satisfied with this explanation, Your Majesty?"

  Muzfeus was slightly surprised. Mikhail Komunin Dukas is indeed the cousin of Alex III. Justinian’s analysis is well-organized and indeed makes sense. Before the fall of Constantinople, Epirus was eager to move. Obviously, he had coveted the throne for a long time. If he went there, he might really receive a welcome. At this moment, he couldn't help being shocked by the thoughtfulness of this young man, and Muzifius had completely afraid to regard Justinian as a small person. Maybe Justinian is really usable.

   Justinian’s words are very pertinent. The Latins’ main target now is Anatolia. Even if they search the sea, they must wipe out the remnants of the Roman Empire. If you venture to Epirus, there may be a chance.

   Until this moment, Muzfius decided to believe in the boy in front of him. Without hesitation, he said, "Okay, I accept your proposal. If you can really help me to make a comeback, I will do my best to satisfy your wishes."

   Did you choose to win me so soon? He is smart! Justinian smiled slightly in his heart, this was exactly what he needed, but his face was calm, nodded and said: "Well, other things wait for us to leave here before we talk." Muz was blind. Fius was not shackled, which made it easier for Justinian to take him out of here. But the whole castle also has the guards of Alex III, he knew he had to be careful. A little negligence means losing all the game.

   Justinian brought the blind Muzfius up from the dungeon along the stone steps. He knew he could not delay it for too long, otherwise Alexei III would be suspicious.

"I can tell you who it is, I don't think a servant will know so many things." Behind Justinian, Muzfius couldn't help asking again. He couldn't imagine a seventeen or eighteen year old. The boy of's unexpectedly has such a method, and he is also guessing whether anyone is secretly supporting Justinian. The boy's body seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, which really made him unpredictable.

   But Justinian shrugged noncommittal and replied: "Is this important? Whether I am an ordinary servant or not, I am the only one who can help you out of the predicament."

   After receiving Justinian’s ambiguous answer, Muzfius believed even more that this young man was definitely not an ordinary person, or that there was some big power behind him supporting him. But now he also knew his situation had no other choice but to follow Justinian's fate.

As for Justinian, he is of course not an ordinary servant, but a Byzantine history lover who travels from the future. Due to an accident, he traveled to the Byzantine Empire in 1204. This is not a great empire of the golden age, but facing A second-rate country with internal and external troubles, the entire empire fell apart due to the treachery of the Crusaders, and the entire empire fell apart, and the various forces were in intrigue. From the very beginning, he became a servant of the king of the subjugated Alexei III. Believe that if you say it, no matter who it is, will treat Justinian as a lunatic and will not believe any words he said. So what Justinian had to do at this time was to pretend to be so profound that Muzfius couldn't figure out himself.

   Just as a traverser, Justinian has no gold fingers, and has nothing except knowing the course of history, so he can only hug Muzifeus's thigh and gamble on his own destiny. As for Alex III, first of all his surly character really made him fearful, and secondly, in a few years, he would be captured in the battle to invade Nicaea and die alone in the monastery. Justinian didn’t want to take himself up. Go in. On the contrary, helping Muzifius may give himself a chance to seize it.

For this day, Justinian had been preparing for a long time. He took Muzfeus and escaped from the dungeon. Because there was a blind man here, the guards were very lax. Only the sentinel patrolled, so everything for Justinian It's all going well. But he didn't take Muzfius directly to escape from the heavily guarded castle ~www.ltnovel.com~ but went to the cellar.

   "This is... the wine cellar." Muzfius smelled the scent of wine as soon as he walked in, and he wondered why Justinian brought himself here.

I saw Justinian open an empty wine barrel and said: "Get into this empty wine barrel. Someone will transport it at dawn tomorrow and you can use this to leave this place." Justinian before. I have already bought the coachman responsible for transporting the empty wine barrels, so that I can send Muzfius out of here without knowing it, and then I can flee and join him in the chaos.

   This time, Muzfius didn't hesitate. With Justinian's help, he got into the barrel. He decided to trust the boy once.

   The barrel was sealed with only one hole left. After everything was prepared, the look on Justinian's face immediately turned into the usual dull look, as if he had changed. This is not his own natural talent as a traverser, but this body has this kind of potential. This physical memory has not been completely digested by Justinian until now, but he feels that the original Justinian is not that simple. Whether it is a broken memory or a superb physique, it proves that this is not an ordinary servant. However, before finding a chance to return to the real world, he can only survive as Justinian.

   "Dong dong dong" brought dishes and wine from the kitchen, and Justinian's expression knocked on the door of Alex III's room as usual.

   But the moment the door opened, a few armored and heavily armed guards appeared in front of them, and Justinian almost left the things in his hands.

   And an old voice sounded in my ear.

   "Let him come in! It just so happens that you should be hungry too."
