When the sound of the sword's edge being unsheathed in the noble hall, the atmosphere suddenly dropped to freezing point at this moment. On this day, the nobles of Thessalonika finally realized that they were not the core of the power circle of the Roman Empire. After the fall of Constantinople, the nobles who fled and wandered everywhere still had unparalleled influence.

Looking at the soft outside and hard inside, Princess Odosia, who had always been confident in grasping everything, Yoannis's face became a little ugly.

Although everyone does not like Latin people, these contradictions are not worth mentioning in the face of the dual orthodox nature of Angeles and Ducas. Ionis also knew that his Count could ignore Justinice, who was self-proclaimed governor, but he could not openly disobey the princess's words. Ionis thought he could rely on psychological offensive to make this weak woman submit, but now it seems that his plan has completely failed. Things have happened in the opposite direction he expected.

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

"Since your highness, if you insist, I and everyone present are the kingdom's loyalty, so naturally respect your choice."

The man's low voice echoed under the dome of the hall, and the other Thessalonika nobles who saw this were disappointed. They thought that the resolute count would stand on their side, but now they see that they have no need to continue to persevere.

The angry Macedonian nobles took back their orders and asked their respective guards to retreat, while the Roman nobles who stood on Odosia silently put away their weapons and chose to continue to be neutral. This was what they could do, after all, emotionally they were still unwilling to let the city of Thessalonika continue to be controlled by the mountain people of Moria and the Latin aliens.

After looking at them with gratitude, a stone in Odosia's heart was then able to fall. She was satisfied with such an effect, and everything left could only be counted on the Latin Baptist. If it was true as Antonia said before, Baptist would use facts to convince all opposing nobles. Seeing the side of her, the Latin man was calm, Odosia also subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, turned her head to look at the many nobles on the platform and said in a calm tone: "Thank you for understanding and preventing me from usurping the power I should not use. Since all the nobles here are controversial about the settlement of displaced mountain people, then I think as the municipal officer of Thessalonika, Lord Baptist should have the right to participate in this inquiry."

"We have no disagreement in this regard, Your Highness. But the premise is that His Excellency Baptist can really convince us and have a reasonable and well-founded basis. The whole city is saturated and cannot accommodate so many refugees. We do not feed so many people with food. This is a fact that everyone must recognize." Yoannis said meaningfully. He said this not only for criticism, but also the fact that Thessalonika faces. The contradiction between outsiders and indigenous people, the food crisis, and the external eye, any one of them will be ignited during the period will inevitably cause a chain reaction. If Baptiste cannot give them a reasonable explanation, he will not be qualified to continue to be in the position of municipal officials.

Facing many bad eyes and the whispers that seemed to be heard, Baptist smiled slightly and said, "What Your Excellency Yoannis said is of course the facts, but unfortunately it is only a part. Although the whole of Thessalonika seems to be at the end of his life, it will be useless even if these Nanmings are expelled."

"A cunning word of ruling, a shameless and clever tongue!" A curse came from the corner of the nobles, which immediately attracted a lot of ridicule and booed the nobles.

But Baptiste ignored it and continued: "All the difficulties we face now have never been caused by thousands of clumsy refugees. This is what I want to remind you - as long as the civil war in Ducas is not over, the peace of Macedonia will not be maintained for a day, and it will not be able to calm the abnormal movements behind some people in this city." The Latin man's eyes stabbed at the stage like a sword, and some nobles immediately lowered their heads intentionally or unintentionally.

Yoannis also heard the other party's implicit voice, raised his voice a little impatiently, "I don't want the matter we are discussing at this time to be disturbed by irrelevant topics, Mr. Baptiste! I and other nobles only need you to give us an explanation - what should those mountain people do? If this continues, it will not be a long-term solution."

"So I had already taken the city of Phelpoples with people last night, and the mountain people also proved their worth with their results." As soon as he finished speaking, several Vadarita warriors around Baptiste carried out a head. Despite the smoke and fire, the nobles present still recognized it.

"This is the Latin thief Renier who is entrenched in Phelpoples!"

"Reniey? It's him!"

Many nobles exclaimed, with surprise and joy in their eyes. Many of them fled from Constantinople to come here, and they still remembered the Latin Crusaders who attacked them in a clear and vivid way. Seeing that this Latin knight who once showed off his might now have a different head, the Roman nobles couldn't help feeling complicated - the one who did all this for them was a Latin man. No one expected that this man who was a crusader was so decisive in his work. Thinking of this, the nobles were even more chilling.

"There are still enough fields outside the city of Felpoples to make the mountain people in the city self-sufficient. After a bloody battle, I think these mountain people have proved their value. If there are thousands of people stationed in that fortress, I think the safety of Thessalonika can be guaranteed." Baptist said.

After his words fell, the hall of the nobles was silent. The nobles did not like this Latin man, but in this case they could not refute something. After looking at each other, the only nobles who wanted to struggle were almost begging to look at the Yoannis on the stage. But at this time, the man could only silently reject the expectations of the other nobles. In fact, Yoannis miscalculated, and he did not expect that the other party would launch such a gamble when they launched a resolution offensive, and took the city of Felpopres as they noticed.
