Chapter 182: The Grand Duke of Moscow (I)

"If His Excellency Patriarch Iveromo still has doubts, can old decay be used as proof of the status of the Knight King?" The Grand Imam of Isder walked in and immediately attracted the attention of the noble councilors, who did not dare to lose their manners to the leader of the Orthodox Church, the Grand Imam of Constantinople.

"Grand Imam, ・・・・・・?!" A little stunned, Ivlumo reacted at this time, although the Grand Duke Alexander left, but the Grand Imam still temporarily lived in Novgorod, which was the only thing that was powerful for the Republic, after all, the Grand Imam was here, and those principalities did not dare to have any intentions against Novgorod.

Although the other party is nominally the supreme leader of the Orthodox Church, the Orthodox Church is different from the Holy Church, and the subordinate relationship between the bishop and the pope does not exist between the patriarch and the patriarch, and Patriarch Isdel has no right to interfere.

"Even if he is a knight king, what can he do? Novgorod must no longer have a Gentile as its leader. Even you can't interfere in the affairs of Novgorod at will! Ivelomo said forcefully.

"Oh? It seems that you mean that Novgorod does not welcome me, do you? Imam Isdell asked, mockingly.

"This ・・・・・・ absolutely nothing that means!" In a hurry, hearing what the Grand Imam said, several councillors hurriedly smiled and said, Now Isder is the last few cards in their hands, if they lose it again, Novgorod will really be hopeless.

This is simply a threat!

I didn't expect that this time the Grand Imam would stand on the opposite side of him, and his face was very ugly.

And more councillors are also a little shaken, on the one hand, the identity of the Knight King of Constance Dante, and on the other hand, the words just said by the Grand Imam.

"We can take a long-term view of this, don't you say?" And Solzhenitsyn said at this time, the two of them are worthy of being old foxes, and the nobles have no way to do anything about singing and harmonizing.

Iverum looked at everything in front of him, and he dared not speak, so he had to break his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.

And Constance Dante, who was silent on the side, also spoke at this time: "Ladies and gentlemen, I am not greedy for Novgorod's power, and all I need is Novgorod's help in the future, as long as Novgorod has come out of the crisis and returned to the right track, I will resign from the Grand Dukeship, if so, can everyone rest assured." At this time, he has reached the point where he can only advance and retreat, even if he no longer wants to be the Grand Duke in his heart, but for the sake of Sophia, he has to do so.

Consdante's words immediately shocked everyone present, and it was his attitude that made more parliamentarians hesitate - after all, the current situation in Novgorod is not optimistic at all.

Although I didn't expect Consitor Dante to directly propose to serve as the Grand Duke only for a short time, for Solzhenitsyn and Licalov, the goal has been achieved, so there is no objection!

And the same is true of Grand Imam Isdell, even Ivelumo, who still wants to make things difficult, is speechless at this time.

"In that case, then everything is clear!" Solzhenitsyn bowed slightly, and glanced at everyone with a calm gaze: "Then King Cons, Dante, His Royal Highness the Great Knight King should have no problem as Grand Duke of Novgorod now, everyone!" ”

The originally noisy House of Nobles was quiet at this time, and everyone acquiesced to this result.

And at this moment, the sound of hurried footsteps once again broke the silence.

A heavily armed officer barged in, and everyone was shocked.

The council of nobles was generally not allowed to be disturbed, and if the officer broke in, there must have been a major accident, usually to the extent that the survival of the republic was endangered to make the officer ignore the order and law of Novgorod.

"What's wrong?"

"It's ・・・・・・ Muscovites, the troops of Moscow are just outside the city, and they are asking to enter the city. It's all the army out there! The panicked officer, trying to calm down his agitation, said that he was not prepared at all, and after the Teutonic Knights had been repulsed, the entire inhabitants of Novgorod had been celebrating for the past few days, so much so that the mighty Muscovite army had not noticed it until they had come down to the city.

As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar!

"Moscow!"

"What did you say?"

"What are those bastards doing next?!"

There was an indignant look on the face of every member of parliament, and there was a long-standing grudge between Novgorod and Moscow. When Novgorod made his fortune, those people in Moscow were probably still in the trees! And in recent years, it has been so rude to curry favor with the Orientals and grow in power.

"I didn't even see the shadow of these cowards when the Teutonic Knights invaded, but now they came uninvited." Solzhenitsyn had a frost on his face, and the Grand Duke of Moscow had grown in strength in recent years, and he was vaguely on an equal footing with Novgorod, Tver, and Vladimir, and this time he must have come with bad intentions.

"Speaker, what are we going to do?" The officer in charge of the city's defense looked at so many noble houses and asked a little nervously, this was the first time he had seen so many nobles with such prominent status, and many of them also said that they had rushed back from the seclusion of other countries, and they had not seen the elders for decades, where was this a big battle that he had seen as a small person.

"In that case, Your Highness, please decide!" Solzhenitsyn smiled and gestured to Consitine, and all the parliamentarians turned their attention to the young man.

The knight king is one thing, but the power of the king alone is far from enough, only with the bearing and demeanor of the king, such a person will be recognized by the power, and everyone is waiting for the performance of Constance Dante.

"Then in that case, please join me and Gu to welcome the arrival of the Muscovites, and it should be meaningless for you to come as guests from afar!" Constance Dante said indifferently, and he calmly changed his name.

"Follow your instructions, Your Highness!" The parliamentarians sang their promises.

And the confused officer, completely unaware of what was happening, looked at the young man in front of him speechlessly.

Is this the Grand Duke of Novgorod not succeeded?

"What's your name?" Cons, Dante's eyes were as sharp as a knife, and the time of his arrival startled the officer's heart.

He hurriedly lowered his head and responded: "Back to the Grand Duke, the lowly position is the Novgorod city defense commander Dikaiat. ”

"That's good!" As soon as De Keyat's words were finished, Constance Dante walked up to him, and a low voice rang in his ears. "Now you're my bodyguard."

After saying that, Cons, Dante walked out of the noble house like a king. This was Constantine's chance to prove himself to the Novgorod nobility, and in order to gain Novgorod power, Constantine once again felt like he was back in his former position, (to be continued.) )
