Eagle Flag of Epirus

"Pizza?!" The old man murmured in surprise, apparently he hadn't thought of this before, and now it's no wonder Justinian has such confidence.

"Yes, Pizzaman." Justinian calmly explained his own countermeasures. "Although it may be difficult to completely fool the Venetians, it is enough to buy us enough time. And after the winter, no matter what Whether it’s the Latins in the north or the Venetians at sea, there should be no major moves for the time being." According to his plan, he will have enough time to implement new reforms in Moria to prepare for the establishment of a new army. At that time, the entire Moria Justinian who had regained his vitality had enough power to counterattack the Latins.

"Well, if you say that, then I can only believe you for the time being. I hope it's really as you said! But there is one thing I have always wanted to ask you before, and I hope you can answer me truthfully." Although Tasius' tone was still a bit suspicious, his tone was obviously eased. Obviously he never had any unnecessary doubts about Justinian's ability, and from the present point of view, the Venetians are indeed as jealous as Justinian said, otherwise they would not have to abandon Athens to avoid fighting directly. . It shows that the other party is indeed scrupulous, but this time Anastasius called Justinian over not just for this matter.

And Justinian had already noticed this. "You want to ask my question about Princess Odosia, right? Otherwise, you don't have to let the two of us come here together." He had already noticed it before. At this point, if it was a single important matter, Anastasius had no need to invite Odosia with the child.

　　 The Grand Duke Anastasius also directly admitted this, and then the expression on his face became serious and said: "I'm just curious, what do you think about Odosia and Little Helena?"

"Of course it is in accordance with the original agreement between my Majesty Muzfius and I to protect their thoroughness!" Faced with this sudden questioning, Justinian immediately felt that the atmosphere in the entire study suddenly became a little dignified. stand up. And the old man in front of him was equally sharp as a knife, as if he wanted to cut all the disguise wrapped around Justinian.

"Didn't you ever think about using them? You can even become a second Lascaris if you want." Anastasius's voice does not contain a trace of emotional fluctuations, and it is even more unpredictable, and There was also a hint of hint in the words he said.

　　 But Justinian, who was completely unmoved by this, shrugged and half-jokingly said, "If that's the case, then what is the difference between me and Leos Gross?"

　　 "Have you really not considered it at all?" Anastasius asked in a calm and surprising tone, as if he did not believe Justinian's answer. And this is very clear, but as the undisputed emperor of the empire, Odosia's identity has no less influence than the controversial emperor title of Muzfius. For example, Lascaris of Nicaea won the support of a large number of nobles and gained a foothold just because he married the eldest daughter of Alex III. This also explains why Leos Grosmin knew that Odosia was still Muzfius’s nominal wife and would still take in this woman. Through her, you can reach out to Su Ri's seemingly unreachable crown, and anyone will be moved by it. Anastasius did not seem to think that Justinian would be an exception.

　　 But the young man standing in front of him was full of heart. Because he knew what would happen in history, Justinian knew too well the reason for the decline of the empire. It was this endless court conspiracy and greed for profit that caused this sad country to be unable to save itself in the future, and finally vanished under the wheel of history.

　　 "Why should I think about this?"

　　 "The desire for power, the ambition to be unwilling to be in the hands of others, these are the reasons, and it just so happens that I can see these in your body."

"It's a pity that I don't have such an idea. If I really have any hope for it, it is only to rejuvenate this empire, and let the people in this country one day escape the doom of war and let me just eat The last meal is no longer an extravagant hope, so that the children under the knee can thrive in front of their eyes instead of being threatened by disease, war, and famine, so that they can have a sumptuous meal and reunite with their families on the annual Holy Spirit Festival. Asking for debts and rent by a cool official. It's that simple, but this simple requirement can't be solved by the influence of a nobleman. In my opinion, if power is only satisfied, it is tantamount to drinking poison to quench thirst, so don't do it." Tenny is purely for survival, but when his soul and his body are constantly running in, he has become one with it invisibly. Although he does not know what he has gone through, the emotions mixed in the broken memory are Influencing him now. It is precisely for this reason, Justinian is also more aware of what he wants at this moment. Having said this, he did not hesitate to veto Grand Duke Anastasius's speculation on him.

As far as Justinian is concerned, whether it is Lascaris or Leos Gros or even other powerful people standing on a high position, they are all the same in Justinian's eyes~www.ltnovel.com~ They compromised with the nobles, and no matter what they really think, they have become the defenders of the old order, but Justinian is different. What he has to do is to give Rome a new life!

　　 "If there is nothing wrong, please allow me to retire." The decisive Justinian owed a salute and turned to leave.

On the other side, receiving Justinian’s answer, Anastasius also stopped questioning himself, fell silent, and did not stop it. Looking at the distant figure, Anastasius’s eyes There was a strange light in it, although he didn't want to admit it, he was indeed shocked by the answer Justinian gave him. People, no one has been talking about this term for a long time. Except for some careerists, in the eyes of most people, power struggles have always belonged to the superiors. But Justinian’s generous speeches truly reveal the heavy relationship between “power” and “responsibility”. This was once the foundation of Rome’s nationhood, but now most of them have forgotten it unknowingly. It's exhausted. I couldn't help being startled in a cold sweat. Even Anastasius, an old man who saw everything very thoroughly, realized that he had been unknowingly poisoned by the poison of power so deeply that he didn't even realize it. .
