"I will cooperate, because I know the consequences of failure, then please start!" Justinian raised his head and looked up with a calm expression, examining the various expressions of the nobles on the stage, with contempt, anger, and surprise, as if for a moment, the person they were going to judge was not Leos Gross but Justinian.

Justinian was now openly challenging their authority, and although he stood calmly and calmly below, he displeased the nobles of Moria more than any unruly behavior.

Earl Conil looked down quietly, and at the same time he looked at Grand Duke Anastasius who was silent beside him. But until now, the old man had no reaction, and there was no eye contact with Justinian.

It can be said that no matter what the truth of this trial was, the nobles of Molia were unwilling to see Leosgros confirming the charge of treason, because it was undoubtedly a huge scandal and a heavy blow to them. Therefore, the nobles who reached a tacit understanding were deliberately hindering Justinian in this trial, but the only variable was that of Grand Duke Anastasius. If this old man stood on Justinian's side, then things would be very difficult for them.

But at present, the old man was obviously ready to stay out of the matter, which made the nobles of Moria breathe a sigh of relief.

Justinian was not surprised or dissatisfied at all when he saw this scene. This was the agreement between them that Grand Duke Anastasius had won the judgment for Justinian, but he would not help both of them as a neutral person.

"That's great!" Earl Conir, who had confirmed the attitude of Grand Duke Anastasius, finally nodded, "Duke Leo, I can still call you that at present, but if you cannot make a defense next, then we will all regret that you have any explanation for the charges of Governor Justinian against you?"

Conneil's words were just questioning but not as if he was interrogating the prisoner. The Duke of Calm Leo slowly raised his head and said:

"I'm sorry, Your Excellency Justinian has such a misunderstanding. Maybe there are some misunderstandings between us - and it is precisely these misunderstandings that make him make such a judgment. He is still a young child after all. Smart but too self-centered."

"Then Leo, can you explain why you were slow to come when I led my troops to defend the city. When I defeated the enemy's night attack, you suddenly appeared and stopped my orders from chasing me for various reasons? Is this the so-called misunderstanding that you called?" Justinian sneered, "If this is also a misunderstanding caused by my youth, then everyone here is a little old!"

As soon as this was said, the ridicule in Justinian's words was exposed, which made many people on the stage look very ugly, but it was hard to say anything.

But Duke Leo was still calm and frowned and asked with a frown, "I think this kind of accusation is biased. Lord Justinian, first of all, the reinforcements did not arrive in time just because they had to consider the safety of the rear at that time. I had to prepare everything and therefore wasted time. Secondly, it was only a decision to stop the pursuit because of proper and safeguarding. If the Venetians were ambushed and suffered huge losses, the consequences would not be affordable by any of us. It was just that these reasons accused me of treason, which obviously could not convince everyone here."

After saying that, Leosgros looked up at the nobles of Moria above, and some of them were unquestionable and nodded. Even now, many people still do not believe that this man who had fought against the Latins would be in love with the Venetians. On the contrary, most of them believed that Justinian wanted to take this opportunity to hit them and force them to compromise and had to admit that he had possessed Moria's power.

Justinian naturally knew this in his heart when he saw this scene. After all, people are more willing to believe what they are willing to believe than the truth.

"What are you going to explain so many assassinations against me?" Justinian's words were as sharp as a knife, and his cold eyes were directed at the man in front of him, but Duke Leo was unmoved by this.

"That's just the actions of the assassin left by the George Border Bell before leaving. Haven't you already known this? Didn't Baron Nickifrus, who had died in battle, also confirmed this?" Earl Conil said coldly. Of course, they had heard of Justinian's assassination on the battlefield twice, but they did not take it seriously. At this time, as evidence of Leosgros's crime was brought out. The alert Conil immediately interrupted Justinian's question.

But Justinian looked up at the other party without hesitation and replied, "Now I am asking Leosgross, Lord Conneil."

However, Duke Leo replied calmly: "But that also requires evidence. As far as I know, there is no evidence to prove that I instructed someone to try to assassinate you, and the only assassin captured alive seemed to have taken advantage of the war to escape. I think our Governor would better sort out the wording and then make this boring accusation! It is obvious that I have no reason to betray the empire. For me, what benefits can I get when working with the Venetians?" The man who talked freely won the support of a large number of nobles in his words.

"Silent--" Conneil picked up the silver bell in his hand and asked the others behind him to stop whispering, and then he set his eyes on Justinian again.

"Justice Justinian, I think there seems to be nothing wrong with the Duke of Leo's defense. If you just rely on your side, I think it is not enough to make a conviction. If you still do not have strong evidence to prove anything, then I can only think that your charges are not valid."

It was obvious that Leosgros had already made all preparations for this. Although Justinian was determined to win, he was at a disadvantage from the beginning of this invisible confrontation.

Duke Leo, who was secretly proud of himself, sneered slightly. He had already confirmed that due to Justinian's identity, the nobles of Moria would not be willing to cooperate in their subconscious mind. As long as there was no strong evidence, the fledgling boy in front of him had no way to do anything. However, when the man looked at the other party, he immediately showed a trace of doubt, because even so, Justinian's eyes were still not panic or even angry. He seemed to have been mentally prepared for all the defenses that Leo Sgros had so far.

However, what puzzled the man even more was that Justinian knew that the Papadoros family had not yet appeared. Countess Agnes' poisoning, whether it was Agnes' relatives or Justinian, would undoubtedly suspect him. This should have been the most useful card in Justinian's hand, and the accusation was undoubtedly more fatal. But to his surprise, Justinian's accusations were just a few things that were irrelevant. Could it be that the Papadoros family was afraid of being implicated and wanted to stay out of the matter? If that was naturally the best, even if that was the case, the man had already thought of a countermeasure to deal with it.

But just when Duke Leo was a little strange, Justinian's face showed a slightly uneasy smile on his face.
