Chapter 1 Letter from Rusnina

Molia's winter was rarely so cold. To be precise, the entire empire was suffering from severe cold at this time. For the Romans, their mood was as strong as the weather, and they had never experienced such a long winter. It was precisely because of this that the war that once ravaged the entire Macedonia was temporarily calmed down, but this did not mean that everything would end. It was impossible to end the war with just a rest, and both sides were secretly accumulating strength. The Latins wanted to eliminate the threats around once and for all, and the Romans would not give up until they drove the foreign invaders out of their homeland.

Although it was late winter, the climate of Tripolis should still be relatively suitable, but the abnormal weather caused heavy snow to float here. If Justinian had not spared huge sums of money to resettle refugees to deal with the devastated city after the rebellion, it would be imagined what would have happened in the cold winter. But even so, the situation was still not very optimistic. If the Pisa people had not supplied the entire Molia through the sea, it would be almost impossible to survive this period of time by relying on Moria's barren land production.

However, this also made Justinian pay a huge price. After all, the food transported by the Pizza people was not free. Even the huge wealth that came from Alexei III in the Ark of the covenant made him almost overwhelmed. He had to hand over the royal artwork to the Pizza people who were still considerate of goods for pawning, which finally solved the current crisis. However, this still made Justinian feel distressed. Even if the wealth did not belong to him, he could only choose to comfort himself over and over again in his heart. These wealth fell into Alexei III and wasted all the money, and it was considered to be a waste in his hands. Even if those exquisite artworks were treasures of the empire, they could not eat cold or wear clothes. It would be better to use them to save more people.

While thinking, Justinian walked in the snow. His feet slipped and almost fell down, but he still subconsciously loosened his hands, and the kite string he was holding at the moment flew out immediately.

"Wow, my kite!"

Beside him, he watched the kite that had taken off the string flew out, and Helena ran up anxiously to pull back the kite string floating in the air, but the little man who had not yet opened could not reach the kite that could accompany her this winter was blown away by the wind.

Justinian, who had been thinking about his concerns, then realized that the kite string that he should have held in his hand had long disappeared. Helena also bulged her cheeks and shouted:

"Uncle Justinian, stupid, what a big fool!"

Throughout the winter, the kite made by Justinian for her was with her. The oriental toy that was introduced to Europe hundreds of years later was obviously very favored by the little girl, so her attitude towards Justinian was greatly improved than before. Justinian was also happy, and he always took some time to play with Helena every day.

But this time, his accidental accident lost Helena's beloved kite, and Justinian couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

"This is a headache, sorry, sorry!"

Justinian apologized, with a dignified look on his face, the governor of Moria, who is known as Moria's little fox, is so happy that he will definitely find it incredible if others see it!

But this was not at all Helena's breath, and the little girl who had nowhere to vent her anger began to hit Justinian's knee.

"I don't accept Justinian's apology, unless Justinian pays another one... no, two kites are enough! And if I still carelessly in the future, I will never play with Justinian again!" Helena grinned, muttering like a little cat with furry scaring Justinian.

After being given such an ultimatum, Justinian quickly showed a careful look and said, "Okay, okay, my dear little prince, I promise to make two more better for you." He said this, and the angry little Helena was in a better mood.

"You promise!"

"In the name of the Lord." Justinian swears solemnly that the girl in front of him nodded with satisfaction.

"Okay, then I will forgive you today!"

"Honor is so honor, your highness. Then let's go back first today?" Although the time to play with Helena has not yet come, since the kite has disappeared, Justinian suggested that we be here for the time being today.

However, Helena suddenly had a smirk on her face and raised her chest, "Okay, but as a show of sincerity in apologizing, Justinian today, you will turn into a horse and carry me back."

"Okay, follow your will, your highness!" Justinian naturally "dared" not to obey such a request. At least it was certain that the girl's anger had really disappeared. Justinian was cautious about falling Helena down with her small body, but obviously the child was not afraid at all.

"Ah haha, so high, so high! Jia—Ji—"

He rode on Justinian's shoulder and heard Helena shouting excitedly, and Justinian also cooperated to trot all the way, which could warm her body in winter. In this way, an adult and a child ran back to the inner courtyard. Along the way, the guards had already become accustomed to this.

But as soon as he came back, Justinian saw the expression on the face of the servant who had been waiting in front of the door for a long time, and immediately realized that there must be some important news to tell him.

"Your Highness, I will have some things later, so I can't take you there in person. I'll greet His Highness the Princess on my behalf." He hugged Helena and greeted the servants and guards beside him. Justinian said with a smile, not letting the tension affect the good mood of the girl in front of him.

However, although Helena, who was precocious, had no idea what important things to do at this moment, she nodded obediently and followed the servants to leave here.

Seeing the girl's back as she was holding her breasts and leaving, she turned around and changed her appearance and turned into the Moria fox that many people were afraid of.

"What happened? I'm so nervous?" he asked calmly. It was obviously not an ordinary thing to bother himself at this time.

The servant in front of him also quickly delivered the letter that he had already held in his hand to Justinian.

"It was a letter sent by Rusnyna. Please see it with your own eyes, sir."
