The rain in Fort Wiscarri at night was still not diminishing, but at this moment the nobles gathered in a palace in the castle at the same time. This is a palace that can be traced back to the classical era. For the ancient Roman emperors and powerful people who like Greek culture, they naturally left various "palaces" when visiting and staying in various places. Although the classical palace has been ruined and has undergone hundreds of years of changes, it has long been beyond recognition, but this place is undoubtedly the most suitable place for judgment.

Hundreds of fully armed soldiers blocked the entrances and exits, and the allegations against Duke Leo were undoubtedly horrifying scandals, whether true or false. Therefore, at the strong request of the nobles, the trial was changed to a secret questioning meeting.

Justinian and Leosgros, who were accusers, fell into the same situation for a moment, blurring their identities. Although they knew that this was very unfavorable to them, Justinian accepted such a decision.

The carriage slowly stopped in front of the door, while the Duke of Leo, who was supposed to be a prisoner, calmly got off the carriage and walked towards the palace, and happened to meet Justinian, who was also feeling here.

"What a coincidence, Lord Governor." Duke Leo said lightly. Obviously, although he was arrested by Justinian at that time, no one dared to be rude to him because of this man's identity. The day and night of detention made the man's face unable to find a trace of haggardness, and even his clothes were spotless and calm.

Justinian just looked at the other person quietly without saying anything.

At this moment, the door in front of them suddenly opened rumblingly, looking at the deep corridor and the solemn guards and soldiers escorting them all relaxed their steps at this moment. Even if they had not seen those people, the natural pressure of the nobles was enough to make anyone tremble and consciously restrain their behavior.

Tonight, a trial or inquiry by the nobles will be held in this ancient palace, and the oncoming cold wind makes people tremble slightly.

But neither Justinian nor Leosgross responded at all and walked into it under the escort of his side.

Although it was old, the palace was obviously not completely abandoned and had been repaired. So soon, the nobles of Molia quickly arranged everything. The corridor was filled with refreshing aristocratic incense, and the ground was covered with purple blankets, and fully armed guards on both sides stood motionless with long halberds.

This is the show that the nobles are passionate about, especially the Byzantine nobles. After several years of changes, they like to arrange everything in a grand manner no matter when and where. Looking at the cold and gorgeous decoration, Justinian sneered slightly. Even though he had become a betrayal dog and was in exile, these nobles still had amazing wealth, and where this came from can be imagined.

The Komuning Dynasty gave trade privileges to the northern Italian city-state, which seriously damaged the empire's economy, but for a long time, the empire's social wealth was not affected. On the contrary, the empire's financial difficulties were tight, and the reason for this was the serious greed, but this was precisely legal, because the military system collapsed the aristocracy's autonomy in local finances greatly increased. This directly led to the empire's treasury in the future, but the aristocracy was still able to do whatever they wanted.

As the door of the inner hall was slowly opened, Justinian and Duke Leo walked into it together, and on the platform were the nobles of Moria who had been standing tall.

The issue tonight is the trial, and the treason accusations of treason against Duke Leo, but at this moment Justinian, who was looked down upon, felt that he was on trial.

The faces of the nobles could be vaguely seen in the dim light, all kinds of colors, some whispered to each other, and some remained silent, but the common point they were all watching Justinian below.

Justinian was familiar with this lofty look. He had seen too many of these Morian nobles at this moment. The panic he had when the Venetian siege before became as pretentious as before, but in Justinian's eyes, it was extremely ridiculous.

And the attitude of Justinian on his face is obviously the most dissatisfied with these nobles.

The one who sat upright on the presidency of the judgment was not Grand Duke Anastasius, but another great nobleman of Molia. He was the lord of Tripolis. The man waved his hand and the guards immediately took the order to withdraw from the scripture hall, completely sealing the door behind Justinian, and the hall was silent. The nobles who were originally talking to each other sat upright and silent, waiting for the beginning of the judgment.

"You all here today are here to question our Duke of Corinth, Leosgros, and His Excellency Justinian. Please remain calm." The man in the center presided over the trial said lightly, but he obviously did not say to the silent noble seat, but looked at Justinian below, with some meaning.

But Justinian, who knew this, still pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled, "I remember this should be a trial, right, isn't it, Lord Coney?"

Looking at the nobleman Justinian in front of him, he shouted out his name directly. Because of the previous land problems of Tripolis, he was very unhappy with the other party, so he was not surprised that the man presided over the trial. However, Justinian was not worried at all. The other party would try to make a public act of inverting right and wrong, because no one dared to shake the authority of Roman law.

Faced with Justinian's questioning, Count Conille asked in a deep voice: "Only Justinian, we have seen everything you have done before, and we are very grateful for your ability to repel the Venetians, but it does not mean that you can do whatever you want. You should know that the consequences of accuse of an imperial noble without evidence are very serious in accordance with Roman law, especially the crime of treason for your accusation of Duke Leo. If you cannot prove it, the cost may not be something you can bear. Because of this, I think it is more appropriate to use the questioning method, and this will not seriously damage the reputation of Duke Leo. Even if you already know this, do you still have to persist?"

"Of course, everyone here knows very well what the rules are. Since they are something that cannot be overcome, I am of course fully prepared."

"Yes. In this case," Earl Coney nodded, "Then in the next trial, we will still use the means of inquiries. I hope you will cooperate, and we will save a lot of trouble in that way. If you can provide sufficient and strong evidence, I guarantee with my personal reputation that all noble juries will pass the punishment for the treason of Duke Leo, but if you have no evidence or the evidence is overturned, you will also be punished the same!" The old man's voice echoed in the empty hall, but Justinian still remained calm about this.
