When the sound of the sword's unsheathing played in the noble hall, the atmosphere suddenly dropped to freezing point at this moment. On this day, the nobles of Thessaloniki finally realized that they were not the core of the power circle of the Roman Empire after all. After the fall of Constantinople, the nobles who fled to various places still have unparalleled influence.

Looking at the empress Odosia, who was soft and firm in front of her, Ioannis's face became a bit ugly as she had been confidently grasping everything.

Although no one likes Latins, these contradictions are not worth mentioning in the face of the dual legitimacy of Angeles and Dukas. Ioannis also knew that his status as an earl could ignore the self-appointed governor Justin Nietzsche, but he could not openly defy the golden words of the emperor in front of him. Ioannis thought that he could rely on a psychological offensive to bring this weak woman into submission, but now it seems that his plan has completely failed. Things have happened in the opposite direction of what he expected.

In this case, this keen man also made a judgment immediately and chose to give in.

"Since your Highness insists on this, I and all of you present are the arms of the empire. Naturally, we respect your choice."

The man’s low voice echoed under the dome of the hall, and the other Thessaloniki nobles who saw it were disappointed. They thought that the determined earl would be on their side, but now that they look like this, they did not continue. It's necessary to persist.

The angry Macedonian nobles withdrew their orders and told their guards to retreat, while the Roman nobles on Odosia's side silently put away their weapons and chose to remain neutral. This is what they can do their best. After all, emotionally, they are still unwilling to let the city of Thessaloniki continue to be controlled by Moria's mountain people and Latin aliens.

Looking at them gratefully, a stone in Odosia's heart was able to fall. She was already satisfied with such an effect, and all the rest could only be counted on the Latin Baptiste. If it is true as Antonia said before, then Baptiste will use facts to persuade all opposing nobles. Glancing at the side of her side, the Latin man was calm and relaxed. Odosia also subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, turned her head and looked at the many nobles on the high platform, and said in a calm tone: "Thank you for being considerate and let me not As for the power that arrogantly I shouldn’t use. Since all the nobles here are arguing about the settlement of displaced mountain people, I think that as the city magistrate of Thessaloniki, Your Excellency Baptiste should have the right Participate in this inquiry."

"On this point, we no longer have any differences, Your Highness. But the premise is that Your Excellency Baptiste can really persuade us, and it is justified. The entire city is saturated and cannot accommodate so many refugees. We do not have food to feed so many people. , This is a fact that everyone must recognize." Ioannnis said meaningfully. He said this not only for offense, but also the fact that Thessaloniki faced. The contradiction between outsiders and indigenous people, the food crisis, and the eye-catching outsiders, any one being exploded in the middle of the period will inevitably cause a chain reaction. If Baptiste could not give them a reasonable explanation, he would not be qualified to continue to be a municipal official.

Faced with so many unkind gazes and the abdominal scandals that seemed to be heard, Baptiste smiled slightly, and said: "Of course what your Excellency Ioannis said is the truth, but it is a pity that it is only a part. Although the whole Thessaloniki seems to have arrived. The mountains and rivers are exhausted, but even expelling these Nanmings will not help."

"Cunning evasive words, shamelessly clever tongue!" A curse came from somewhere in the noble corner, and immediately drew a sneer and hiss from the nobles.

But Baptiste didn’t take it seriously, and continued: “All the plights we are facing now have never been caused by thousands of clumsy refugees. This is what I want to remind you-as long as Ducas’s As the civil war continues, the peace of Macedonia cannot be maintained for a day, let alone the secret movement of some people in this city." The Latin man’s eyes pierced the stage like a sword, and suddenly some nobles intentionally or unconsciously Bowed his head.

Ioannis also heard the other party’s overtones, and raised his voice a little impatiently: "I don’t want our discussion at this time to be disturbed by irrelevant topics, Your Excellency Baptiste! I and other nobles just need You give us an explanation-how should those mountain people deal with it, it will not be a long-term solution if it continues like this."

"So I took people to take down Philpopolis last night, and those mountain people also proved their worth with their victories." As soon as the voice fell, there were several Vadas beside Baptiste. The Ruitai warrior lifted out a head, and despite the smoke and fire, the nobles present recognized it.

"This is Renier, the first Latin thief who occupies Phil Poples!"

"Renier? It's him!"

Numerous nobles exclaimed, with surprise and joy in their eyes. Many of them had fled from Constantinople and came here, and they naturally hate the Latin Crusaders who attacked them. It's into the bone. Seeing that this once flaunted Latin knight is now in a different place, the Roman nobles couldn't help but feel complicated-it was a Latin who did all this for them, and no one thought that this man who was once a crusader could do things so decisively, thinking of this. , The nobles shudder even more.

"There are still enough acres outside Philpopolis to make the mountain people in the city self-sufficient. After a **** battle, I think these mountain people have already proven their worth~www.readwn.com~ If There are a thousand people stationed in that fortress. I think the safety of Thessaloniki can also be guaranteed." Baptiste said.

But his words fell, and the noble hall was completely silent for a while. The nobles did not like this Latin, but in this case they could not refute something. After looking at each other, the only Thessaloniki nobles who were still struggling almost begged to look at Ioannis on the stage. But at this time, this man could only silently reject the expectations of other nobles. In fact, Ioannis miscalculated. He never expected that the other party would initiate such a gamble when they launched a resolution offensive, and took Phil Poples City out of detection. With the eyes of Ioannis, he certainly guessed the sinister intention of Baptiste’s trick, but he had to admire him. When the Latins of Constantinople discovered that the gateway connecting Thrace and Macedonia was captured, If a large-scale army is stationed, the other side will take action no matter what, if that is enough to deter the two Ducas who are currently in civil war with each other, and then this Latin guarding the Thessaloniki will definitely be a two-party battle. The object of enthusiasm. Only relying on the pampered nobles of Thessaloniki can no longer help. Seeing this, the Count Ioannnis, who was surging in blood, could only accept this result in the end.
