Eagle Flag of Epirus

Vol 3 Chapter 61: 1 stone arouses 0 waves (below)

In a castle in the southernmost part of the Peloponnese, a few people were whispering at a boring banquet of the nobles.

"Huh, the Roman emperor, Mikhail is really as brazen as before."

"But what he got is the recognition of His Majesty Alex V that he became a co-ruling emperor!"

"Don't mention the traitor and coward of Muzifius. He only recommended him to power after a mutiny came to power. In essence, he and Mikhail are really similar."

"Yes, our allegiance is that the Lascaris family is the empire orthodox, and the Ducas family wants to get involved in the crown is simply wishful thinking!"

"But now their army has moved into Tripolis, I am afraid that even if we don't recognize them, I am afraid they will not let it go!"

A heavy voice finally fell, making the Moria nobles who were still angrily accusing Epirus as the usurper suddenly speechless. After the fall of Constantinople, the Moria Military District was unable to protect itself. In the end, they chose the Lascaris family in Nicaea and recognized their emperor status, because after the fall of Constantinople, most of the nobles in the Senate Fleeing to Nicaea, and at the last minute, the Lascaris brothers Constantine and Theodore were adopted as emperors by some imperial troops. However, they never expected that the "notorious" Emperor Alexei V in the noble circle would have arrived at Epirus instead of dying.

This suddenly allowed Mikhail of Epirus to have the qualifications of the emperor's orthodox contending, and it is conceivable that these nobles who lost their territory were caught between Epirus and Nicaea.

"Aren't you talking anymore?" It was Leo Sgross, Duke of Corinth, the leader of these nobles who spoke just now. He was the former ruler of Corinth. The arrival of the Latins made him lead the disabled to exile here.

Not long ago, the news came that a Byzantine army that appeared on the sea defeated Achaia and regained the southern Peloponnese. It made them happy and sad. The happy thing is that the threatening Latins for two years were finally driven away. But what is worrying is that a Byzantine army belonging to Epirus has occupied here, and their fiefdom wanting to get it back is simply a dream. Their allegiance is that Nicaea resolutely rejected Mikhail Dukas before. The difference in the relationship between the two parties can be imagined. Now they have no courage to return to their hometown.

"What else can you do? Your Excellency Leo, you never want to violate the oath to the Lascaris family and vote for Ducas, do you?" A nobleman said coldly, looking at the **** support of the Lascaris family. At the same time, he could clearly hear the vacillation from Rios Gross’s words. This is normal. Epirus is much closer to Peloponnese than Nicaea. I am afraid that at this moment, many nobles are willing to secretly contact Mikhail Dukas.

But Duke Sgross shook his head, "You think too much, George Frontier, I don't have that motive, not to mention the relationship between me and Muzfeus. You all know this. I'm just stating the facts. "

After listening to Leosgros’s explanation, the other nobles nodded one after another. They all knew the very unpleasant experience between the Duke of Sgros and the Dukas family, and now the wife of the Duke of Sgros, Odosia ·Angelina is the wife of Muzifius and the third daughter of Alex III. This is destined to be absolutely impossible for her to be loyal to Epirus.

"Excuse me, sir, what do you think?" Earl George knew there was no way to accuse him, so he looked at the other person and asked.

"Just wait for the other party to take the initiative to contact us." Duke Sgros replied confidently, but the other Moria nobles were confused.

"Proactive contact?"

"Yes, take the initiative. We had a deal with the Earl of Theodor of Agrinon before. If his army is frustrated, he can take refuge from us. Although that didn't happen, we gave them one after all. Favor. Then it is only a matter of time before our young Governor of Moria takes the initiative to seek our help." I saw Leos Gross talking freely, and the other nobles seemed to be optimistic about his ideas.

However, the George Frontier asked with a grim expression: "Contact with Agrinion, Lord Duke, when did this happen?" What the other party said was carried out with Theodor Ducas. It was the first time he heard about the transaction, but the other nobles around seemed to have known about it.

I saw that Duke Sgross smiled and said roundly: "This is only the personal wish of the Count of Agrinion. After all, we are all imperial nobles anyway, so they still have to provide some help for the empire when they attack the Latins."

"For the empire, I'm afraid it is the gold of Agrinon!" George Frontier didn't believe the words of Leosgros, who was known for his skillful tongues. He sneered and walked away. The other nobles did not stop him. Just sneered slightly.

"George Byzaren thought that after joining the Lascaris family, he really thought he could be on an equal footing with us? It's stupid! A mere frontier man."

"It's just a barking dog! It's just that the duke, the kid named Justinian, will really come?"

"Of course," Sgrees replied confidently, "have you forgotten the nickname given to him by the Latins? How can a person like that feel relieved and boldly give us his back, he will definitely come."

"Moriah's little fox... The style of these French people who are nicknamed is really..." Justinian, who won a big victory within a few days, was honored to be given a gift from the country of Achaia. His nickname is "Morlia's Little Fox", which makes Justinian who knows it full of black lines. It can only be said that the French nation is really imaginative!

"When King Philip II was young, he was called the'little fox' because of his cunning and wit. The Latins called you both fear and respect for you." Nieowski explained to the side. When the Three Kings marched eastward, he was fortunate to have heard of the legendary French king. When he was reigning, the French king's territory was extremely narrow~www.ltnovel.com~ But under the insidious governance and intrigue of Philip II, the power of the princes Being greatly weakened, it can be said that there is no doubt that it means a talented monarch. The Achaeans who were born in the French knights called Justinian more probably because they marveled at Justinian's conspiracy at the Battle of Alfius.

"I know this too, but it would be better if it sounds better!" Justinian shook his head helplessly. He had already expected this situation, but it did happen but made him a little bit dumbfounded, but it was better than The nickname "The Almighty Spider" of the later founder of the Valleio dynasty, Mikhail VIII, is much better.

"Now is not the time to care about these, there will be more glorious titles in the future, but what are you going to do next?" Nievski said sternly, they don't have time to make jokes, and Achaia will never let them go. Occupy Tripolis.

At this time, Justinian also immediately reduced his expression and said: "I know what you mean, but we have to go to a place before then." The young man's slender finger pointed to a place on the map.

"Tenalong? What are you going to do there?" Neusky asked in surprise. It was the place where the exiled nobles of Moria lived. He had suggested Justinian to join forces with them before, but now Tribo Liss has already been taken, what on earth are you doing there at this time?

I saw Justinian replied with a solemn expression: "It is a private matter entrusted to me by His Majesty Muzfius! His family is still there, and he wants me to be well protected." According to Muzfius, his wife said. He and his children were sent here to take refuge, but Justinian had been searching all the way but there was no news. Now the only place to go is there.
