Eagle Byzantium

Cabe Amiya, who stayed in the tent, gradually got up again. She walked to the makeup mirror and looked at herself for a while. Suddenly, she hated her skin color and hair color. However, she had to walk on her own in the future and could not rely on anyone. She was ashamed of having fantasies and weak thoughts just now.

After thinking about it, Cabe Amiya fixed her beautiful eyes and slowly took out the hair clippers from the box. When she was captured, Gawain's phosphorescent sword had cut off the hair on her left cheek, making it asymmetrical. She felt very annoyed for a while and carefully cultivated it for the past two weeks. With two slight "clicks", the hair that had grown out was restored to its original style by Cabe Amiya with scissors, and fell to the ground dejectedly.

The next morning, the soldiers of the big company used wooden buckets to draw water from the river, wash and feed the horses. The military servants carried the tent support wooden spears and loaded them onto the baggage vehicles. Many long flag bearers began to stand at designated locations in the camp, using trumpets and drums to inform each other of the gathering information - they would continue along the Thrace River and head towards Constantinople.

"The rest of Melo's team will arrive in three days." Gawain touched his newly shaved beard, got out of the tent, walked towards the camp gate, and listened to the report of the brotherhood around him, "Well, leave a small number of guards to support Melo's follow-up team."

Then, in the sun, he saw Cabe Amiya riding a horse at the door, and several military servants carrying luggage stood behind her. The woman's long hair that was originally draped had been braided and coiled behind her head. The strand of hair that was cut off hung alone in front of her left cheek, and she was covered with light leather armor. Hanging on her belt was the ox-tongue sword that had been returned to her. She looked at Gawain and said, "Goodbye." After saying this, the female consul pulled the reins, turned around and ran towards the field outside the camp gate without looking back.

Watching her leaving, Gawain held the hilt of the sword. Then he turned around and looked at the soldiers who were getting ready to go, "Finally, we are going to march towards the imperial capital again."

The monastery bell of the Brachna Palace rang, and in front of the palace hall, Malena was so angry that she trembled all over. Leading Prince John, she walked to the winding corridor. Several eunuchs and maids hurried forward, stopped her, and begged, "My Lady Queen, the Regent of the Palace, please ask the Chief Lady not to enter the Brahena Palace for the next few days. Because there are important matters to be discussed here..."

"What important matters! Now His Majesty is supervising the army in the military fort outside, and His Excellency the Patriarch Masdas is presiding over the law and justice in the imperial capital. When will it be the turn of the so-called regent of the palace to make a decision? What's more, the current crown prince is Prince John beside me, and that woman is just an appointed agent for palace affairs. Your Majesty did not let her serve as the regent of this empire at all. What reason is there to stop my mother and me from going out?" Malena accused angrily, and then the group of eunuchs heard the Chief Lady actually call the queen "that woman", and they screamed in fear, fell to the ground, and covered their ears with their hands to show that they did not take these blasphemous and offensive words into their ears.

So Malena took the opportunity to continue "rushing forward". Unstoppable, another group of eunuchs and maids came and knelt before the prince and the chief lady. They begged in a low voice and blocked them.

Amid the noise. A morning eunuch in the queen's bedroom walked out of the hall at this moment, looked at the chief lady with some pride, and after the salute, "Her Royal Highness invites you to come in." Then everyone dispersed. Marlena thought for a moment, and with that momentum, she pushed John and walked into the palace under the guidance of the eunuch.

In the palace, in the center is the throne facing the entrance, surrounded by colonnades and curtains to maintain the mystery of the emperor and queen of the empire. Ordinary envoys and servants can usually only see the back of the throne, kowtow and report, and then leave on their own after receiving rewards and comfort from the eunuchs. Few people can really see the honor of the emperor and queen. In this regard, they are not as good as ordinary guards and slaves. The Roman royal family of Byzantium wants to give them such a feeling.

Outside the colonnade was a U-shaped corridor. Marlena and John walked through the corridor and came to the opposite side of the throne. The scene that appeared shocked her.

The one holding the lion-head armrest of the big throne was Irene Komnenos, who looked smug and cold, while Anna sat on the small throne next to her with a complicated expression. "You are simply crazy. His Majesty will know all this. You and your daughter will be thrown into the Agnes dungeon!" Marlena pointed at the mother and son.

"Sister, your father will be sad if you do this." John also said beside her.

"Shut up..." Irene spoke from a high position. She didn't see Anna's drooping face. Then the Caesar of the Empire and several generals appeared from the curtain behind the throne. "This throne should have been occupied by our Ducas family. Komnenos is just a small military noble. How can he be compared with us in terms of pedigree and glory?"

"You are plotting a coup." Marlena trembled.

"What is a conspiracy? It's just to get back what should belong to Anna." Erin said confidently, and then she announced, "So I let you and John come in, just to let you understand that the current situation is like this - my brother , brought his five hundred Isaurian guards to the imperial capital. During the festival tomorrow, everyone will go to the Holy Wisdom Cathedral. I will ask the Imperial Prime Minister, the Patriarch and others to announce the support in public. Anna is the heir to the throne.”

"It's impossible for Anna to be the emperor, she's just a prostitute." John shouted.

These words stimulated Anna. She also raised her head and looked at her brother with unyielding and angry eyes, "Why, my wisdom and wisdom are not inferior to any man in the world. Maybe I am not interested in the throne. But that doesn’t mean your words are right!”

"This is the rule of the empire. Even if you can have the power of an emperor, you must co-rule the emperor. This person is either your sister or your husband."

"I have sisters now. If I want a husband, who wouldn't be grateful?" Anna said, and then her mother Irene cheered, "Anna, you said it very well, that is, you must have this kind of determination and momentum, and don't lose to ”

"You are playing with fire and burning yourself." At this time, Malena stared at Irene, "I am going to send a courier to Adrianople to tell His Majesty all this."

As a result, several Isaurian warriors surrounded the chief lady and the prince, "What are you going to do?" Marlena struggled and pushed, "Do you really take away the inheritance of the empire? As a joke?"

"No one is messing with you Malena, just wait! One hundred thousand pilgrims are now camped on the outskirts of the imperial capital, and an elite legion is following them. Their leaders are all subordinates and close friends of Anna and me. Our advantage has been determined, and a new era and rules have arrived with the sound of the bell." Irene stood up and lowered her arms in the sacred hall, as if signaling a decisive battle. (To be continued ~^~)
