Eagle Byzantium

The words of this rough knight really had a great impact. Immediately, a dozen guys who were ready to make a move followed him to the entrance of the bathhouse courtyard, where wealthy pilgrims were also entering. What surprised them greatly was that in front of the porch decorated with colorful curtains, there was a notice board with four wooden boards sandwiched in the middle, on which were glued a writing carrier that no one had ever seen before - a sign. This is a soft paper made of plant fibers, densely covered with writing in three languages: Saracen, Greek and Latin.

Two sergeants who were proficient in writing came forward and took a look. On the first page were written several aphorisms from the Bible and the Gospels, with the words "For the Lord's Easter, for Seleucia, and for the invincible Three Wings." The division will work hard for a hundred days for the Purple Princess and the Grand Duke."

They turned their attention to the second one, which contained a calendar table for the immediate harvest, as well as the opening dates of the markets in Zephyrim, Akum, Mut Valley, and Lamas marked in red; the third Zhang's title reads, "Welcome to join the garrison in your hometown to protect our farmland and crops. Those who can ride horses and archery will be given priority." The main body below is a light color painting with Saint Michael wearing a halo. Archangel, holding in left hand The spear was covered in dazzling armor, with a little angel with wings blowing a trumpet on it. The archangel's right hand made a gesture of pointing forward, as if facing everyone who saw him. , the letters on the left side of the screen are "Joining the army means a gospel salary and tax exemption", the right side is "The Lord of the Holy City needs farmers to farm for him, and soldiers to hold swords for him", and at the bottom there is a horizontal inscription, "I need you, Roman – St. Michael”.

The knights and sergeants were stunned. They felt that their hearts were struck by some kind of sacred power in this picture. This power was much more down-to-earth than the mass in the church.

Of course, the most explosive one is the fourth one. It is the real "signature" of this bathhouse. It immediately made several knights have nosebleeds when they saw it. On the lower right side of the paper, there is no taboo ivory printed on it. There were erotic pictures of men and women having sex, which was actually not a big deal in Roman society, which was known for its orthodox customs. Next to it were densely written words, "If you spend sixty saffron copper coins in this bathhouse, What kind of service will you get?" content:

For example, "playing with a ball of string the kitten's tongue";

For example, "Shy Nun's Clothes";

For example, "a beautiful dragon that breathes fire and ice";

For example, “The Pillar Dervish”;

For example, if you add twenty copper coins, you can also enjoy the services of the "Snake" or the "Double Goddess of Moonlight, Dawn and Laurel".

As a result, a knight immediately "checked out" his helmet and armor in his crotch amidst the ridicule of his companions. He was shivering all over. Then he was so ashamed that he touched his helmet and lowered his face, unwilling to leave. Got in.

Count Blois was as embarrassed as frost. He could not stop his subordinates from being happy and happy. He could only put his hand on his chest to apologize to his wife Adela, and quickly accompanied Count Reinstein towards the guard. Walking in the direction of the city, "Who was the scar-faced knight just now? He seems familiar." Reinstein asked curiously.

Speaking of this, Count Blois sulked, and then said in a dissatisfied and evasive tone, "He is not from Blois at all. He is a guy from Barneville named Sigma. He sneaked into my house when little Alexander was wandering. Team, he had offended the Priest Lord Admar before, and he was ready to be punished. It seems that he can only use the sword to survive in this damn era, such people are like snakes and swamps in the desert. It’s everywhere like flies.”

"Oh?" Reinstein shrugged, then looked back at the Sigma Eye, who was joining more and more people, shouting and laughing shamelessly, and filed into the bathing place.

The next journey surprised Stephen and Robert Curtis from Blois even more: the acropolis where the Purple Princess lives has begun to lay bricks and stones on the two streets leading to the surrounding areas, and is still Drainage canals leading to the ocean were dug on both sides of the road - they only knew of two places with this kind of facility so far, one was the Greek Emperor's Constantinople, and the other was the Spanish Empire built with the support of the Greek Emperor's craftsmen. The capital of the Mayan monarchs.

Now there was a third place in the world they knew that had it.

Walking into the small and exquisite temporary palace of the Acropolis, the princess sat behind the curtain of the banquet in the top hall, accompanied by the chief minister Bo Gottschalk and Count Reinstein, and a fat eunuch served as the cupbearer, allowing the two people to come from afar. The Earl who came was surprised: the princess behind the curtain looked majestic and dignified, with a little sunfish standing next to her. The widow and Qise sat on the chairs next to them, all ladies of the noble family. Even the Frankish nation, which is known for its respect for women, would find it hard to imagine that the group of women behind the curtain had the same power as Gawain in this country.

The banquet was filled with delicacies, including grilled mackerel, smoked whiting, various kinds of dried meat from deer, wild boar, and goat, and buckets full of caviar. Robert Curtis devoured it and was still marveling at the caviar. The food was only eaten by the poor in Greece, as well as countless pies, cherries, vegetables, and Corinthian grapes. It is said that the princess spent no less than a hundred gold coins on this banquet.

Staurachos, holding the wine jug, stood in front of the curtain after filling it again. The princess beckoned at him, and the fat eunuch listened attentively. The princess spoke elegant court Greek, which was very pleasant to the ear: even though Robert, who was eating heartily, could not understand, he was also envious, and he was completely conquered by the Greek culture.

"Her Royal Highness Princess Purple said that the army led by her father, the Roman Emperor, the thirteenth Holy Apostle on earth, has been traveling on the Phrygian mountain road and is about to arrive here to save you pilgrims in dire straits. In this regard, she hopes that you will meet her father as soon as possible and serve as a pioneer guide, because the person she loves most, the Grand Duke of the Empire, is also on the battlefield of Antioch."

When the fat eunuch spread the words, the face of Count Blois was full of guilt. He and his brother-in-law ran all the way here, of course not to report to the Greek emperor, then lead the king, and then turn around and run back to the battlefield of Antioch!

His goal is to return home, or if he doesn't have enough money, he will stay in Constantinople to wait for the wind and waves ahead before making plans.

"Yes, I will set off tomorrow and report the news of Antioch to His Majesty the Emperor." Finally, Stephen said this ambiguous word.

A perfect version in 1619 Book Bar!

Behind the curtain, Anna's eyebrows slightly raised, and a smile appeared on the corners of her mouth, "Her Royal Highness Princess Purple expressed her sincere gratitude to the Count, and she will send a cavalry tomorrow to escort His Excellency to find her father's army." Then, the fat eunuch waved one hand and said. (To be continued ~^~)
