Eagle Flag of Epirus

Odusia, who was immersed in Justinian's words, was silent for a while, but looking at the daughter in her arms, the woman seemed to remember something and finally shook her head.

"I have decided not to get involved anymore, and I also don't want Helena to live in the whirlpool of intrigue when she was very young. The only reason I came out to see you this time is to explain this to you. My lord, I hope that if all this is over, you can go back and tell Muzifeus my attitude. I just want to spend the rest of my life in peace with my husband and children." The woman said in the voice. Resolutely, without the slightest retreat, she is undoubtedly a good mother, although she had longed for it and longed to be recognized, but for the sake of her daughter, Odosia was more willing to spend her life ordinary.

But Justinian also refused to be equally decisive. He shook his head and said to the woman in front of him: "I'm afraid this is not a decision I can make. I have promised His Majesty Muzfius. What's more, now, this The castle is in danger, and I can’t promise you anything.” In fact, Justinian is very surprised. Why this woman would say these things to herself at this point of view? He thought that Odosia was because of the siege of the Venetians. His worries came to him, but the woman directly rejected him, with no intention of leaving Wiscari Castle in the slightest.

However, at this moment, the lips squirmed a few times, Odosia made up her mind and said to Justinian: "As long as you agree to this request, I can help you save the current crisis. You should already know. Now your situation is very bad."

This sudden sentence made Justinian also slightly stunned.

And just listen to Odosia continue: "The siege of the Venetian has cut off the water source, and the food in the city is not much. My husband...and other nobles have negotiated to accept the Venetian's terms and give you to you. They, Lord Justinian, don’t you really know at all? Once the city has run out of ammunition and food, you don’t even need to use an army, you just need to let the mob overcome by hunger, even if you are the loyalty of the empire. She would be given up without hesitation." She had clearly seen the tearing ugliness of the citizens in the city when she was in Constantinople. One second before the emperor was shouted, the next second was high. Calling for the execution of the tyrant, and even after the Latins entered the city, some people foolishly thought that this was just a change of dynasty and welcomed the arrival of the new owner, but in the end it was a cruel looting.

But Justinian was not surprised at all about this, because he knew that the souls of the king and the shoemaker were the same, and could not estimate the upper limit of these Moria nobles. Guessing their lower limit, he still had this ability.

Sure enough, did you see the poor? Justinian said silently in his heart, there is no doubt that the person who has always wanted to put him to death has been determined, but the only thing that Justinian cares about is that there is really only Leos Gross alone. Are there any other ghosts?

The woman looked at Justinian, who was a few years younger than herself, with an indifferent sneer. She thought she was young and innocent, and said helplessly: "I can help you get out of here, as long as you agree to my terms." Odosia solemnly promised Justinian that although the other party wanted to take her away, Justinian stayed here for the same reason, but she didn’t feel sick to this young man, and she didn’t want Justinian in her heart. Nibai lost his life, so after learning of Duke Leo's plan, Odosia, who hesitated repeatedly, decided to help Justinian.

Her kindness Justinian naturally understood that he knew that Odosia could not confide Leosgros’ plan to Justinian, and when Justinian was betrayed by the Moria nobles, Then Muzifius wanted to take her away. But in the end, this kind woman didn't do that.

"I will keep your kindness in my heart, Your Royal Highness, but I also have my self-confidence. I believe that if there is life on the way of justice, there is no death in the way. Only cowards will choose to escape, not to mention this. The battle between me and the Venetian has not yet settled. I understand your difficulties, but I also implore you to reconsider my request after all these troubles are over." The boy was determined and did not accept Odosia’s conditions. Even though he knew that this was tantamount to putting his safety on the gaming table, but Justinian did not waver at all.

At this moment, Justinian’s words and expressions made Odosia slightly stunned. As a royal family, she was also a devout believer. All of a sudden, she heard that Justinian just said it was a quotation from the Bible. A sentence from Proverbs.

There is life on the way of righteousness, but there is no death in the way.

Many years ago, when she was a child, she had read this sentence when she heard the Patriarch's sermon. At that time, Odosia was only a little understanding. But now, after growing up, especially seeing the impermanence of this world, the more she discovers how difficult it is for Bai to be consistent with this sentence.

But now Justinian solemnly said this sentence~www.ltnovel.com~ This is not ridiculous, on the contrary, Odosia felt that Justinian was already very much in the empire. The tenacity that I rarely see again.

But reason told this woman Justinian was only a momentary youth and vigor, Odosia still patiently persuaded Justinian: "Give up, otherwise even the Grand Duke Anastasius will not be able to protect him. You are thorough."

But Justinian shook his head and smiled and said: "I have decided, and I will always believe that only by following the light can there be no danger of being swallowed by the darkness, even if it is pointed out."

"So you should go all the way you should go, keep the way you keep, and the crown of righteousness will be kept for you?" The emperor listened, this is the words in the book of Timothy, and finally gave up persuading and helpless He shook his head and looked at the young man in front of him.

And Justinian also shrugged slightly. Although he is not a devout believer, he is very familiar with these proverbs and comes at his fingertips.

"You are young, and the sword in your hand is also the sword of Kaijiang Tuotu. But when you talk, it turns out to be an old pedant. Maybe you are more suitable to be a priest!" Odosia looked at Cha with a sarcasm. Steinney said, and she turned and said with a serious expression:

"However, despite this, I don’t want you to end up like Timothy who faced the tyrant Nero but insisted on Timothy in the New Testament. Justinian, please do as you say for the time being, but if you regret it If you do, my previous words still work.” Odosia assured him that even if Wiscari Castle falls, most of the nobles can still negotiate with the Venetians as long as they can pay the ransom, but Justin, who is unfamiliar with life. Ni will be in a difficult situation, and Odosia must make this young man understand this.
