Apparently the vast majority of people are not satisfied with what they are getting in front of them. At the other end of Constantinople, Gingch had made it clear that the empire did not have any extra money to feed a bunch of rice buckets, and Constantine XI did not want the taxes to be touched by some dirty hands before they reached the treasury directly.

The ancient family relationship is useless under the iron-fisted control of the Palaiologos royal family, and the royal family, which has completed the centralization of power by chance, how can it leave half of the former nobles who have lost their military power.

"There are some jobs that can be given to you, but I don't think it will be the kind of good errands you think." After he had eaten and drunk, John clasped his fingers on the long table, "Since you all call yourself the last noble, then you should at least be relatively well educated. Even if you can't pretend to be a literary writer to write a long poem or opera on the spot, it shouldn't be a problem to know a few words? Maybe some of the village consuls still lack a paperwork or two? You can give it a try. ”

"His Majesty John...... "Some of the nobles who were still holding wine glasses in their hands and pretending to be high-minded on the surface instantly staged the art of changing faces in Basque absurd plays, "We ...... We ......"

"Oh of course...... I have also taken into account that perhaps some of you have fallen into the middle of your family to the point where you cannot be provided with knowledge. Of course, it doesn't matter, Fort Gombrigne is a new metropolis that will in the future not only be the heart of Epirus, but also the most dazzling jewel of the Balkans besides the queen of the cities. There's still a lot of work going on in the city, and you can go to a construction site and find a less brain-demanding job. That's right...... Bishop Sextus will definitely give you a special welcome, there are so many marble and stone tiles in the diocese waiting to be moved......"

Evelet smiled and handed over a silk scarf to John, the spirit of these noble children is indeed still the heart of the nobility, but they have no strength to support their ambitions.

If her former status is useful, she is known as Ducasse-Komnenos, and now she should not be a lady-in-waiting – albeit a palate-in-waiting appointed by the Pope.

"What else are you not satisfied with?" John smiled and wiped his mouth with a napkin.

The almighty eight-clawed spider Michael VIII, with his impeccable diplomatic skills and the help of the Genoese, went from a vacillating supreme commander in Nicene high society to the restoration of Constantinople by the Palaiologos. His outstanding diplomatic and military exploits are indeed praised, but his weak domestic skills only allowed the revived Eastern Empire to die step by step.

John didn't pay much attention to the old aristocracy in front of him. Michael looked down at the Ramaniol Palace back then, and I am afraid that this is also the scene. When the empire collapsed, the so-called aristocrats, who fled with their last bit of wealth in their hands, demanded land and profits in an endless stream.

Today.

"Brother, let's go."

In Sophia's eyes, the wonderful changes in the expressions of these people are absolutely disgusting.

When John and Sophia left side by side, most of the people in the room could no longer maintain that noble cultivation. There was another swarm of noisy maggots in the castle of Gombrigne. John did not even leave a dwelling for any of them in the heart of the fortified and prosperous fortress, preferring to give the dwelling and land to a group of so-called nouveau riche or even commoners who had no bloodline to speak of.

Such behavior was naturally disgusting, and the scolding in the hall became more and more united and louder. Until Jeffrey threw down the ribeye bone in the last piece of pan-fried beef-

"Throw them out of here."

Jeffrey patted Giovanni on the shoulder, a tone so calm that one thought it was a trivial matter.

Before being banished from Constantinople by the emperor because of political discord, Jeffrey and the family behind him were far from being comparable to the clowns in front of him, both in terms of skill and identity. Jeffrey's re-entry into John's cabinet today is actually a testament to the family's revival.

Naturally, Jeffrey became an example for the gang to work on, but their example threw them all into the abyss at the right time.

Giovanni smiled and nodded, "We're here to help, Lord Jeffrey." ”

Even if there was no strong garrison inside Fort Gombrigne, it would only take a few minutes for the cavalry of the Phoenix Legion to arrive. This is something that Giovanni had mentioned intentionally or unconsciously before they came to visit Fort Gombrine "with great excitement".

Of course, the guards were ostensibly sentenging. As for the small man who couldn't hold back the bad words against the royal family of Valleolo at the banquet before, the guards naturally took care of it.

……

"If I'm not mistaken, you should be the ...... next to Brother and Sister John"

"Your Majesty, Kalujie. May you live a long life. ”

"In terms of employing people, the uniqueness of the Valleolo royal family is always so eye-opening. It's also immensely admirable. Hunyaldi pulled back the bench and made a self-proclaimed humorous Magyar joke, "Is there anything important that you have come all the way from Epirus?" ”

"It's not an urgent need, it's just that His Majesty John is interested."

The vast majority of the courtiers at Székesbehleas were still somewhat confused about a woman as an imperial envoy of the Eastern Empire, and their lame etiquette and service showed that this phenomenon was uncommon.

"Mittal. Ikaiz Mittal ...... I need to find out where His Majesty John is. ”

The aroma of cider slowly spread in the air, making the atmosphere in the palace a little sour.

"What's wrong with little John? Mittal is just a group of crappy mercenaries, and it doesn't matter if he writes a letter to ask, and he also sent a mission? Is this to welcome him back and put him near the castle of Combrigna? Hunyati wondered, "Most of their people don't recognize money and people, but they are not loyal ministers." ”

"Perhaps Your Majesty is just trying to satisfy some inhospitable curiosity. Since you've hired Mittal's mercenaries before, I think you should be able to grasp some of their movements more or less. "You know, no one doesn't like to hide by a warm fireplace in this weather, so you better let me go and let me finish my errand as soon as possible, John's black-hearted guy won't give me a few more Duka agents." ”

"It's not so much that I hired Ikez's troops in the first place, it's better to say ......," Hunyadi sighed, "It's better that Ikez came to the door on his own initiative......"
