Eagle Flag of Epirus Chapter 81

"I will cooperate, because I know that if you fail, then please start!" Justinian raised his head and looked at the top with a calm expression, examining the various expressions of the nobles on the stage. , There is contempt, there is anger, there is surprise, as if the person they want to judge for a time is not Leosgros but Justinian.

And Justinian was also openly challenging their authority at the moment, even though standing calmly and indifferently below, it displeased Moria's nobles more than any unruly behavior.

Count Conil looked down quietly, and at the same time glanced at Grand Duke Anastasius, who was silent next to him, but until now, the old man has never reacted, and there is not even between Justinian and Grand Duke Anastasius. Any eye contact.

It can be said that no matter what the truth of this trial is, the Moria nobles do not want to see Leosgros convicted of treason, because it is undoubtedly a huge scandal and a heavy blow to them. Therefore, the nobles who reached a tacit agreement are deliberately restraining Justinian in this trial, but the only variable is the Grand Duke Anastasius. If this old man is on Justinian's side, then he will be treated to them. So things will be very tricky.

But from the current point of view, the old man was obviously prepared to stay out of the matter, which made the nobles of Moria breathe a sigh of relief.

And Justinian did not have the slightest surprise or dissatisfaction when he saw this scene. This in itself was an agreement between them. The Grand Duke Anastasius won the trial for Justinian, but he will be the two neutrals. Don't help.

"So good!" Count Conil, who had determined the attitude of Grand Duke Anastasius, finally nodded, "Duke Leo, I can still call you that way, but if you can't make an excuse next, , Then we will all be very sorry. Regarding Governor Justinian's accusation of treason against you, do you have any explanation for us?"

Conil's words were merely questioning and not as interrogating the prisoner at all. I saw Duke Leo slowly raised his head and said:

"It's a pity that Your Excellency Justinian would actually have such a misunderstanding about him. Maybe we have some misunderstandings-and it is these misunderstandings that made him make such a judgment. After all, he is still a young child. But it's too self-centered."

"Then Leo, can you explain why when I led the troops to defend the city, you were late with reinforcements, and when I thwarted the enemy's night attack, you suddenly appeared to stop me for various reasons. What about the pursuit of orders? Is this also the so-called misunderstanding in your mouth?" Justinian sneered, "If this is also a misunderstanding caused by my youth, then everyone here is a bit old-fashioned!"

As soon as this remark came out, the ridicule in Justinian's words was exposed, making the faces of many people on the stage very ugly, but it was hard to say anything.

However, Duke Leo, who faced such questioning, was still calm and calm, and asked with a slight frown: "I think this accusation is biased. Your Excellency Justinian, first of all, the reinforcements did not arrive in time just because they had to consider the rear. I had to prepare everything for my safety, which wasted time. Secondly, the decision to prevent the pursuit was only because of proper insurance. If the Venetian ambush and suffer huge losses at that time, the consequences are not something that any of us can bear. It's just that these reasons accuse me of treason. Obviously, it's impossible to convince everyone here."

After all, Leosgros looked up at the nobles of Moria above, and some of these nobles were noncommittal, some nodded, even now, many people still don't believe that this one had fought. The Latin men would actually fight with the Venetians. On the contrary, most people believed that Justinian wanted to take this opportunity to beat them to force them to compromise and thus had to admit that he had the power of Moriah.

Looking at this scene, Justinian naturally knew this. After all, people are more willing to believe what they are willing to believe, rather than the truth.

"So many assassinations against me, how can you explain it?" Justinian's words were as sharp as a knife, and his stern eyes were directed at the man in front of him, but Duke Leo was unmoved by this.

"That's just what the assassin who George Frontier left behind before he left. Haven't you already understood this? Didn't the former Baron Nikifrus who died in the battle also confirmed this? "Earl Conil on the stage said coldly, and of course they had heard of Justinian's two assassinations on the battlefield, but they didn't care about it. But at this time, it was taken out as the evidence of Leosgros's crime, and the alert Conil immediately interrupted Justinian's questioning.

But Justinian looked up at the other party unceremoniously and replied, "I am asking Leosgros, Lord Conil."

However, Duke Leo replied calmly: "But that also requires evidence. As far as I know, there is no evidence to prove that I instigated someone to try to assassinate you, and the only assassin who was captured alive seemed to be too. Taking advantage of the time of the war to escape, I think our governor's best is to sort out the words before proceeding with this boring accusation! Obviously I have no reason to betray the empire. As far as I am concerned, what benefits can be gained by working with the Venetian What?" The eloquent man once again won the support of a large number of nobles in the words that he can deal with freely.

"Quiet—" Conil picked up the small silver bell in his hand to stop the other people behind whispering, and then set his eyes on Justinian again.

"Justinian, I think there is nothing wrong with Duke Leo's defense. If you only rely on your side words, I think it is not enough to make an accusation and conviction. If you still do not have strong evidence to prove anything, then I You can only think that your accusation is not established."

Obviously, Leosgros has already prepared everything for this ~ www.mtlnovel.com~ Although Justinian is determined to win, but this invisible confrontation has fallen from the beginning.

The proud Duke Leo sneered slightly. He had already determined that because of Justinian's identity, the nobles of Moria would not be willing to cooperate together subconsciously. As long as there is no strong evidence, the fledgling in front of him The kid is nothing to do with him. But when the man looked at the other person, he immediately revealed a trace of doubt, because even so, Justinian still had no panic in his eyes at the moment, or even anger. It seemed that he had been mentally prepared for all the defenses that Leosgros had made so far.

However, what made this man more puzzled was that Justinian knew that no one from the Papadoulos family had yet appeared. The poisonous killing of the Countess Agnes was undoubtedly whether it was Agnes's relatives or Justinian. Will doubt him, this should be the most useful card in Justinian's hand, and it is undoubtedly more deadly to use this as an accusation. But to his surprise, Justinian's allegations were nothing more than trivial things. Could it be that the Papadoulos family was afraid of being implicated and wanted to stay out of the matter. If that's the best thing naturally, even if that's the case, this man has already figured out how to deal with it.

But when Duke Leo was a little weird, he just heard a slightly disturbing smile on Justinian's face——

Just listen to Justin Nilang said: "Indeed, Your Excellency Conil is not at all wrong. If it is just like this, of course I cannot accuse Duke Leo of what Duke Leo did. But this does not mean that I have no other evidence. Maybe you are tired of what I said, so let's listen to what others say next. Let's invite our witness—Her Royal Highness Princess Odosia!"
