Eagle Flag of Epirus

"I don't want to threaten you, but I just hope that you can help me at the right time, so that the friendship between you and me can be wiped out." Said slowly, and Prince Theodor looked at it meaningfully. Looking at Juan Baptiste himself.

Although Theodore said so, it seemed to Baptiste himself that it was no different from a threat, and he did have contact with the man in front of him in Corinth, and finally chose the pros and cons. Continue to support Justinian. However, a trace of the original made him finally give it to him. At this moment, Prince Theodor's intention could not be more obvious.

"I think it seems that the relationship between you and Lord Justinian is closer. I really can't think of anything that can help you." Baptiste did not directly refuse but used this Replied in a tactful way. But this is simply not enough to let the other party give up

"Oh yes?! But Justinian can actually entrust you with important tasks, and even ask you to help him manage Thessaloniki. This is enough to prove that he trusts you enough." Theodore Er said with a smile to Baptiste's answer, but this made the Italian man feel more pressure at this time, and he really couldn't argue with anything.

Baptiste reluctantly shook his head helplessly, knowing that he must have no choice now, "I can help you with anything, I will do my best, but since I have chosen to be loyal to Lord Justinian, you should also be aware of the weight of the vow of being a knight."

Under the coercion and temptation of Theodore, although the Italian man had to choose to surrender, he still expressed his position and was unwilling to betray Justinian.

But Baptiste’s actions made Theodor himself feel a touch of contempt.

After all, if that vow was really important, Baptiste shouldn't have made such a move at the ends of the first mouse in Corinth.

But of course the mocking of Theodor Dukas in his heart said it, his face still looked like a kind middle-aged man, I saw Prince Theodor opened his arms and said happily: "Don't worry. Naturally, I won’t make you embarrassed about this. I just hope you can help me find out what Justinian’s intention to go to Bulgaria this time is. Besides, I want to clarify one more thing. , That’s what Justinian did in Moriah other than the favor of Grand Duke Anastasius himself. I believe these two things, I believe you will be able to take a short time. It shouldn’t be a problem to detect one or two. And after this incident, no matter what the outcome is, I swear in my honor that everything that happened in Corinth will forever disappear and never happened.”

"Well, I promised you. But why did you do this? As far as I know, your Royal Highness and Lord Justinian should have been a firm ally!"

Seeing what the other party said, Baptiste also understood that it was impossible for him to refuse the other party’s request, so he had to respond, "Because it is an ally relationship, so I have to clarify some things. After all, only allies have Isn't it possible to stabbing a knife in the back?" Prince Theodor replied with a shrug, but the smile on the man's face at the moment really made Baptiste very uncomfortable.

Is that right? Maybe it's a thing that is accustomed to you Greeks!

Silently said in his heart, this Italian man now finally feels the characteristics that the Roman Empire has nurtured for thousands of years, that is, natural distrust and endless conspiracies. Even unbreakable alliances and pledges can be changed at will in the eyes of the Greeks.

On the other hand, Theodor did have other plans, although he had seen Justinian's abilities early on and realized that the young man was a useful talent. But after the first battle in Thessaloniki, he understood a fact more clearly, that is, this little fox of Moria is definitely not an eagle dog that he can send at will, even if he is a fox but by nature But it is always a beast that does not obey domestication, even if it is currently weak, it can't change this fact.

As for the alliance between the two sides, it will sooner or later break down. Today, we are fighting side by side to deal with the threat of Mikhail Dukas, but Justinian is loyal to Emperor Muzifius, and Theodore But Er is unwilling to stay under people for a long time. He even wants to oppose his elder brother, let alone the emperor who has been blind and disabled!

Sooner or later, instead of being caught off guard by the Latins in the future, Theodor determined that he must be fully prepared at this time, so he had the layout of Baptiste's dark chess.

In fact, Theodor had already doubted it before. You must know that Justinian, who was sent to Ilovan Castle, was solitary and had nothing in his hands. He was unable to cope with the invasion of Croatian pirates, even secretly. With the help of a Genoese nobleman, his power was very low when he was sent to Moria. But in just a few months, the fledgling boy suddenly pulled up a team in Moria and quickly swept the two former enemies in front of him, the once powerful Achaia and the Principality of Athens~www .ltnovel.com~ It’s incredible, even if he admits Justinian’s ability is extraordinary, but it’s absolutely impossible to do this on his own, unless he has enough prestige to be short. Time to convene a large number of people to be with him.

But that was clearly what Justinian lacked the most at the time. After the Battle of Alfius, Theodore sent an eyeliner beside Justinian and reported that he was very reluctant to supplement his army. But everything has changed drastically since Justinian went to Fort Wiscari, but since then all the eyeliners sent by Theodore have somehow cut off contact with him or were justified by Justin. Nian inserted into a remote area. So Justinian didn’t know anything about Theodore for a long time in Moria, but he heard a very strange news that the princess of the former empire in Moria, and then Muzfiu The wife of Emperor Si, Odosia Angelina, who has been missing for a long time, once appeared in Moria.

The contact with Justinian seemed to have been sent to Ilovan Castle, the border castle near Moria, at the request of Muzfius himself. Looking back now, Theodor Dukas also He seemed to realize the purpose of the blind emperor. One can imagine what it means to be an orthodox princess of the empire. Didn’t the Lascaris brothers of Nicaea have the right to claim the throne because they married the two eldest daughters of Alex III, then Odor? The value of Thea as the young girl of the former royal family is clear at a glance.

If this is the case, then the alliance game he and Justinian have only seen will probably not last long.
