Chapter 56 Confrontation
"You said let us retreat? Just as you a coachman or the messy border lord behind you? What a joke, we are waiting for you here!" The aggressive officers sneered, not taking the people in the carriage seriously at all. Behind him, the officers of the Imperial Guard were also ready to teach Justinian a lesson, and did not take the so-called Ezesa border lord seriously at all.
But this made Justinian and Antonia in the carriage breathe a sigh of relief. Sure enough, the other party just guessed that the Chincha warrior at the martial arts competition was pretending, and simply thought that the "Ezessa Border Beth" had collusion with Prince Theodor.
It seems that this group of people appeared here to report the grudges made by the martial arts competition, and in this case, the threat from this group of mobs is not worth mentioning.
So Justinian jumped out of the carriage, glanced over the group of people around him with a cold look, and said lightly: "Is this what His Majesty Mikhail mean? As a minister, I should have received courtesy, and aren't you afraid of criticizing your behavior? As the border king of the empire, you are not qualified to do this, and even the emperor's orders should not be carried out by you. If it is really your Majesty's will, I can only say that Epirus's actions are too despicable, but since I have to accept them as a minister, I have to accept it! But if you make a proposition, it is equivalent to discrediting His Majesty the Emperor's reputation. Now is the critical moment for His Majesty Mikhail to capture people's hearts. Then he knows what you are doing now, and you know in your heart!"
The man who was neither humble nor arrogant responded to this situation calmly, and ignored the arrogant guards at the beginning. He said a few words that arrogance seemed to be the entire legion charging, causing the courage of the guards who were originally eager to try to come in like a tide and retreat like a tide.
Looking at Justinian in front of him, the guards were all stunned for a moment. They came here to teach this little border lord who dared to secretly surrender to Prince Theodor. After all, the other party seriously injured the emperor's illegitimate son Nicholas and made the nephew of Commander Valens look ugly in public. No one could swallow this breath, so they wanted to take this opportunity to take this guy back. Even if he was the champion of the martial arts competition, they were not afraid of any mistakes under the crowds.
However, what unexpected happened to this group of people now. The "Border Boy" who got off the carriage suddenly raised the personal hatred between them to the level of imperial interests and even emperor dignity. The key is that they thought the other party was right. For a moment, they looked at each other, and a group of imperial guard officers didn't know what to do.
Seeing their momentum and their momentum was even stronger, it was obvious that they were really frightened by what they said. Justinian, who was proud of his eyes, said with a hint of mockery in his eyes: "Have you guys thought about it? If you have made a decision, please express your opinion quickly, are you going to let it go, or do it all in your thoughts." Assuming that the other party was shocked by his words called warnings, Justinian was not in a hurry to worry about anything.
Because even if it really makes a big deal, I don’t have to worry about anything. Since Antonia bribed the real Earl of Ezesa, their fake identities were almost seamless. As the border lord of the empire, such a noble identity should not be underestimated. Judging from the foundation that Mikhail Dukas has not consolidated at present, it will never be openly unfavorable to him. After the martial arts competition, he knew that he was the "Chincha Warrior" but did not move any way, which is the best proof.
But the officer standing in front was very unwilling to accept it. He finally entered the semi-finals at the martial arts competition, but was beaten by the guy in front of him to the ground and became a laughing stock in the city. That's why he encouraged the guards to come here to intercept the man in front of him in the name of His Highness Nicholas taking revenge. But now he was completely out of power by the other party's words, and he couldn't swallow his anger! He could only pluck up his momentum and pulled out the sword at his waist, and roared angrily: "It's nonsense. Even if we are not the order of your Majesty this time, can't we still move you? I'm here to teach you a lesson of a cunning person like two-faced and three-sword. Do you really think we dare not do it?"
"I never dare to do anything," said Justinian. "But since you know who I am, you should know what will happen to me. If you don't even understand what you pay for what you do, that's stupid - you should know that fools die faster than cowards. Get in the way!"
Molia's little fox said loudly, but the last sentence was not for the guards in front of Rusnina.
"You-what..."
The slightly stunned guards were about to speak when they suddenly heard the sound of heavy horse hooves running from not far away, which surprised everyone. How could there be a sound of horse hooves at this time?
Who is this and what is going on?!
Everyone subconsciously thought that such a situation suddenly made them stunned. It seemed that a cavalry was coming here. Looking at the cold smile on Justinian's face, the officer's children subconsciously trembled in their hearts, as if a cold giant hand was clenching his heart. Although they still couldn't figure out what was going on, he still realized that the danger had come suddenly and was definitely closely related to the "Ezessa Border Boy" in front of him.
"What did you do!" Zhang Huang's confused aristocratic young man pointed his sword at Justinian and shouted, but the trembling wrist had already exposed the fear in his heart.
Looking down at the long sword that was holding the trembling hand, Justinian seemed to be silent and smiled faintly and replied: "I did nothing, but I reminded you to know what the result will be if you do something, so now this is the result you want-"
As he said that, Justinian snapped his fingers, and then he saw an arrow in the air piercing through the clouds and cracking stones, wrapping the strong wind in the middle of the long sword with its back half-held in the air.
