Eagle Flag of Epirus

Vol 5 Chapter 35: The guests

"As you can see now, because we still abide by the contract, even if we suffer from war, we can have this kind of peace in Nafplio." Baron Pierre looked at this prosperous building with intoxication. City, turned around and looked at Justinian deeply and said meaningfully.

"I think you should know the best, Your Excellency Justinian, such peace is precious everywhere now. After the misfortunes occur in your country, it is precisely because we abide by the contractual agreement with the emperors at the beginning, so here is Greece. The people are able to live and work in peace and contentment without being harassed and living in a foreign land. Similarly, we have reached an agreement with the Achaias to remain neutral, so everyone here does not need to be ravaged by war, and all of this, there is only one premise. It is the observance of the contract."

What he said was obviously implying something about Justinian, but it is a pity that the young man named Justinian in front of him still looked as usual, just listening to Justinian casually saying:

"It is indeed a precious peace, but sometimes the right to enjoy peace is not determined by oneself, and most of the time it is not in one's own hands. The so-called contract can be effective not only by observing it. It also comes from signing. Power in the hands of the people."

As soon as this remark came out, Pierre, who was still smiling before the time, stiffened slightly. Obviously Justinian heard what he meant, but he directly rejected him in this way.

This obviously made the man feel very uncomfortable for a while, but the noble restraint made Pierre finally choose to calm down his mood and take Justinian and his party to the municipal mansion of Nafplio. Other Pisa nobles were also waiting there, preparing to host a banquet to welcome Justinian and others.

I saw the honour passing by, and the residents of the city also avoided. People pointed and looked at the scene in front of them. Obviously they didn’t know Justinian’s arrival before, although many people knew what happened in the south. The Latins were worried, the Greeks rejoiced, but they didn't recognize Justinian.

And Justinian was also aware of this, and it seemed that although the Baron Pierre received himself courteously for several weeks, he treated him as low-key as possible. It seems that the other party is indeed unwilling to get involved, and Justinian is not surprised, but thinking about the other party's reaction before, it seems that something has been thought of, and he whispered to Arslan next to him:

"I want you to do something."

"What's the matter?" Seeing Justinian's solemn expression, Arslan didn't dare to neglect and immediately nodded in agreement.

"Send someone to mix in and ask the people in the city to find out if there is anything that has happened in the city that looks different from the usual." Justinian lowered his voice and asked as quietly as possible.

"Are you worried, what are the actions of the Pizza people?" Arslan was also immediately alert, knowing that Justinian would never do so without evidence.

But Justinian shook his head, "I'm not sure, but if the other party simply refuses, there is no need to receive me. This will only arouse the vigilance of Achaia. The other party shouldn't be aware of this. One point. But at least it is certain that this Baron Pierre is definitely preparing something. Knowing oneself, knowing one another, and being prepared is better than being played and applauded unknowingly."

"Yes, don't worry, everything will be given to me." Arslan promised in a low voice, then slowed down and secretly arranged the people under him to prepare for action. It is not difficult for them to escape the surveillance of the Pizzas by their skill.

On the other side, just as Baron Pierre and Justinian and his party were about to approach the official office, a clerical clerk hurriedly rushed in and ran into the baron who was approaching. His expression changed and he hurried up. The front whisper seemed to tell Pierre something important.

Of course, this scene was immediately noticed by Justinian behind him, but the other party seemed to be afraid of something and deliberately lowered his voice, which made Justinian even more aware that there seemed to be something wrong.

Sure enough, after holding back the papers in front of him, Baron Pierre turned around with a hint of guilt on his face, and apologized: "I'm really sorry. Your Excellency Justinian, because there are some things to deal with. So I can only ask you for the time being. Condescend to go to the mansion we arranged for you to rest, and we will hold a banquet for you later to welcome you."

Obviously something seems to have happened, and the other party is also very worried about being known by him. Nevertheless, Justinian nodded calmly and said: "If this is the case, then I will bother you. Since you still have things to deal with, I won't waste your time." After all, without any dissatisfaction, he followed the pizza attendant on the side and turned towards the arranged post and mansion.

Turning around and walking away, Justinian asked Arslan next to him in a low voice, "Has everyone been arranged?"

"Everything is in order as you ordered. Did you find anything, Justinian?"

"I guess your Lord Pierre seems to have something he didn't want us to see so that he changed his mind temporarily~www.wuxiaspot.com~ I would rather ignore the etiquette. It seems that I and I expected to be inseparable from each other. Wait for your people to come back in the evening. , I think you can see the difference immediately."

After all, Justinian and his men still pretended not to know anything, and gradually disappeared from the sight of the Pisa, and Baron Pierre, who was lingering at this scene, breathed a sigh of relief. But it was too late to calm down the fluctuating mood just now, and then the man immediately climbed up the steps and walked straight to the mansion. As soon as he stepped into the door, the tense atmosphere made him a little breathless.

I saw that a few uninvited guests from the Achaia kingdom appeared here at the banquet that was supposed to be a reception for Justinian, and their faces were also full of unkindness. As the guests of Pizza, these came The messenger of the Achaia vassal state was completely armed at the moment.

And Baron Pierre changed his mind precisely because his clerks told him what happened here. The man who had just entered the door immediately saw him and opened his arms to say hello:

"It's nice to meet you, Lord Baron, but why didn't you bring the guests who were supposed to be at this banquet? It's too regrettable, but I think it's only a day away, if I had lost time before. Maybe today’s guest will be the first to board! Why don’t you take the opportunity to introduce us to it?"

The man smiled and said with a subtle expression. This scene suddenly made many people present suddenly nervous, but unexpectedly, the Baron Pierre, who was facing the square eyes, still looked calm at the moment, and said coldly. :

"You don't have to worry about this kind of thing, it's your Excellency Osseth, don't you, as the messenger of Achaia, understand that no matter when people don't welcome an uninvited guest?"
