Eagle Flag of Epirus

Shocking cheers broke out all around, except for the upper class on the stage, almost everyone was shouting for the Chincha warrior who won off the court. The fastest update. Although the Frankish knight who died on the field was sent by their ally Genoese, the arrogant attitude of the Genoese before made many people happy in their hearts that they were able to kill the opponent this time, even if they depended on it. Is a Qincha barbarian.

On the other side, Emperor Mikhail’s face was full of gloomy expressions, but he could only accept the cheers of his own people below. No matter what, he couldn’t expose what he wanted in his heart. It was worth suppressing his heart. Anger.

Even Constance Doria, who was also watching the battle, was very surprised by this result. Although he was not sure at the beginning that Alfred could win the warrior on the court, but this flash of light was the most under his hand. The capable thugs were killed in this way, but the old man felt more jealous and vaguely uneasy about the winner below.

Baron Fernan, who had bet before, also turned his head slowly with a downcast expression, and threw the prepared money bag to the Byzantine nobleman who was betting with him. Although he was reluctant, he still kept it. The Roman aristocracy who got this windfall was ecstatic.

As for the Prince Theodore and Antonia Doria, who had mentioned their throats before, they were greatly relieved at this time. Without the previous worries, there is still a lingering fear in recalling that scene. No one thought that Justinian would have won with such an incredible blow. It seemed like a breeze, but when you think about it carefully, the timing and the requirements for excellent physical fitness are unimaginable. .

...

At this time, amidst the cheers, Justinian in armor picked up the discarded broadsword from the ground and stood in the center of the field. He looked up at Emperor Mikhail through the mask, holding the sword. Kneel down on one knee, "May God bring blessings to our wise majesty, and may you lead our empire back to its former glory, noble Roman emperor, I dedicate this victory to you and your great empire. You have also bestowed your generosity on your loyal warriors to inspire us to dedicate this life to the Roman Empire and her people."

Only listening to the words of neither humble nor humble came from under the armor, and although they did not see the real face of this samurai, most of the audience in the audience at this moment had a lot of good feelings about him. Now the empire’s internal and external troubles, and like Anyone would be pleased with such a brave warrior.

Of course, with the exception of Emperor Mikhail himself, but he had to show a hypocritical and stiff smile, stood up from his throne, and accepted the so-called compliment. And his gloomy eyes looked at his younger brother Prince Theodor not far away. Don’t even think that he already knew what the other party was plotting. He wanted to compete for the commander who was about to conquer Thessaloniki. That's it. But he couldn't stop anything now. The **** Chincha warrior below not only won victory but also won a huge reputation for Theodor Dukas.

As a reward for the champion of the tournament, Mikhail Dukas will have to promise two people a wish as a reward. But this was originally prepared for my son Nicholas. The anger in my heart became more and more uncontrollable when I thought of this. The two hands tightly held the guards on both sides of the throne and kept shaking, and the murderousness exuding him became more and more intense. strong

Perceiving this, the chief deacon on the side, Nikifrus, quickly persuaded: "Your Majesty, the overall situation is important!" If the emperor in front of him was really angry for a while and cut down the inspected warrior, I'm afraid he will lead the way. The crowd was in an uproar and the prestige that Mikhail had finally accumulated was lost all of a sudden. This was the result that Theodor Dukas was happy to see.

And at this point, the angry emperor actually knew it in his heart, but he still couldn't swallow this breath, but in the end the man still endured it.

I saw that the emperor’s expression gradually calmed down, and in a cold tone, he said condescendingly: "I am very pleased that the empire can have such loyal and brave men. Now that the competition has come to a result, then you are worthy of the title of the winner. , Let's talk about it, whatever rewards you want, I can be satisfied with whatever you want."

As he said, Mikhail turned his gaze to his brother Theodor Dukas who was also looking over under the tent beside him, "And my brother Theodor, the prince of the empire, because of your previous I also recommended myself to me, so as a reward for you, I will appoint you as the commander of the expeditionary army to the Latins. I believe you will not disappoint my expectations."

Now that the other party has succeeded ~www.readwn.com~, then simply minimize the loss, Mikhail Dukas took the lead in making the appointment.

And Prince Theodor didn't say much about this, but he stood up coldly and knelt and thanked Huangen. He naturally understood his brother's intentions, and immediately accepted the appointment that everyone coveted. Such an important task must be entrusted by the emperor's trustworthy talents. It is impossible for the emperor and the prince to have reached a reconciliation, and the crowd could not help whispering to His Majesty Mikhail's simple determination. And more people are concerned about what kind of request the Chincha warrior will make, knowing that it is the promise of the Roman emperor, and he has kept his promises.

Hold your breath, everyone is waiting for this moment. The warrior wearing heavy armor on the field finally slowly spoke out his wish. But when the hoarse voice in the armor resounded throughout the arena, everyone was stunned.

"My wish is simple. I hope that His Majesty can suspend the alliance with the Genoese, at least until a reasonable agreement is reached. I implore our great emperor to reject the Genoese's robbery."

Justinian’s voice was not very loud, but in the entire competition hall, nobles and civilians heard it clearly. At first, there was a dead silence, and then there was an uproar. Everyone thought that this Qincha warrior was just asking for an official and a half job or rewarding some gold and silver jewelry, but he actually made such a request, making everyone stunned, and their eyes immediately followed. Gathered on Theodor Dukas not far away. Obviously most people have already acquiesced that the will of the prince is the will of the prince.
