At that time, after staring for a long time, Artoria was about to step forward and block Egil from Lilianu, when the princess suddenly laughed. Egil was a little stunned for a moment.

"Tonight, there is a banquet in the Imperial Palace of Constantinople. Your Majesty, don't be late. When Lilianu had finished speaking, she turned her horse around and quickly left.

"What a beauty. Egil muttered something quietly, then turned around, returned to his ranks, and continued slowly toward the outskirts of Constantinople. Behind Egier and the Norman Janissaries, the Black Dragon Knights of Brandenburg, the Praetorian Guard of Hesse, and the Swiss mercenary troops of Burgundy also caused some admiration. Even more than the Normans were surprised.

This is not to say that these Greeks lacked the heart and felt that the elite Janissaries of the Norman Empire were inferior to these second-rate troops. Rather, there was a lot of communication between the Greeks and the Normans before that. Caravans that traveled between the Balkans and Krakow, and merchant ships between Kherson and Constantine. It is usually possible to transport a large amount of news back with the goods obtained from Norman. Thus, in the Greeks' senses, the Norman Empire was the more civilized and most powerful of the barbarians of the continent. So after seeing the military might of the Norman Empire today, although it is beyond imagination, it is also acceptable......

However, when Brandenburg, Hesse, Burgundy, and other small second-rate countries that had never heard of it, also came up with such elite troops in front of the Greeks. Naturally, these Greeks were even more surprised. When, those Germanic, Gallic barbarians. How can there be such a powerful army? Confusion and disobedience. Shouldn't it be a common trait of these barbarian armies? When did the world become so different?

After this, someone remembered what Caesar of the Norman Empire had said before - Egir was now basically converted to a state of specialization in the mainstream languages of the European continent. Speaking of Greek, the words are round. There's no Greek who doesn't understand it -- the downside, of course, is that it doesn't have a local accent at all, and it sounds like a textbook. It's a little awkward. But it doesn't interfere with everyday conversations.

"Sure enough, there is some truth in the words of the barbarian emperor...... Perhaps the Empire should revise its politics and policies a little. "That's what a lot of people think.

In this way, Egil entered Constantinople with the Praetorian Guard, and with it. There were also six other monarchs with small elite troops, the Celtic Guard of Artoria, who also sent five hundred knights. And general, ordinary soldiers can only be stationed in makeshift barracks outside the city.

But even so, quite a few Greeks, especially the senators of the Senate, were dissatisfied—the combined number of troops from various countries entering Constantinople was nearly 10,000. This has made many people feel uneasy.

"They are barbarians, they are the army of barbarians! What should they do if they make trouble in Constantinople?" Someone in the Senate argued loudly: "What Her Royal Highness has done this time is really unreliable!"

"Please pay attention. The other party is not the kind of barbarian you think. It's from another civilization. Although perhaps less civilized than Rome. But we should also give them full respect. This is the basis for full communication between each other. There are also some, mainly externally, senators who are more familiar with the Catholic world.

"A barbarian is a barbarian. It won't change for a thousand years, ten thousand years! There is no other way but to conquer with the sword, and to discipline with the whip!" exclaimed, "The glory of Rome is not to be desecrated! Tomorrow they will take off the Roman eagle banner and replace it with the totem of the barbarians!"...,

"Are you still alive in ancient times hundreds of years ago?! You old stubbornness, the times have long been different! You are still looking at problems with the old eyes of hundreds of years ago! You will lead the empire into the abyss!"

"Only by giving up the wisdom and classics handed down by our ancestors. Rome has always been Rome and can only be Rome! Only by adhering to the dogma and traditions of Rome can the glory and greatness of Rome continue to be maintained!"

......

..................

That's it. Within the Roman Empire, there was a fierce conflict between the Restoration and the Old Guards. From the verbal debate to the staging of the full martial arts, it was only nearly thirty minutes. Immediately afterward, chaos ensued in the Senate. The patriarchs fought with each other. Young fist swing. Old crutches. It's a lot of fun. The surrounding Roman soldiers were all looking at their noses and their noses. Silent and unmoving. Think of yourself as a sculpture. It looks like I've experienced a lot of similar things [Shina God Slaughter Edition] pieces......

Of course, none of this has anything to do with Emperor Egil. In the end, Emperor Egil managed to stay in the Grand Palace of Constantine without any problems. The size of the royal palace is huge. Numerous houses. There were also a considerable number of vacant ones - of course, His Majesty's army was not so well treated. Except for the fifty knights of the guard, the personal guard Sonia and the queen Artoria, the rest of the Praetorian Guards and the knights of the guard were all arranged in other barracks in the city.

And the monarchs of several other countries were not so lucky. They were arranged in general. Inside the inn where foreign emissaries are received. This made these kings complain. Later, Egil also felt that it was not good to do this. It will affect the unity between the coalition forces. So it was proposed. Either let a few monarchs also stay in the palace. Or move out on your own. Such a request comes. In the end, Lilianu had no choice but to let several European princes stay in the Grand Palace. It's just that the maids and eunuchs are asked to look at it a little more. Don't let those people steal the palace stuff. And when they are gone, they have to clean up the palace where they live. Spray enough perfume and change all the bedding.

However, no matter how Her Royal Highness the Princess arranged, this small matter [Shining God Slaughter Edition] piece still improved Egil's image in the hearts of the other monarchs of the coalition, and made others realize that Egil was a very righteous and reliable alliance leader who could advance and retreat with him. As for the Eastern Roman Empire, these people complained a lot. To think that Eastern Rome is indeed a heretical country is too unkind to Lao Tzu. Sooner or later, Ya Ting will be destroyed......

Amidst such complaints, the quarrels of the Senate, the lamentations of the Greek scholars of the heart, and the laughter of the ladies and ladies of Constantine, Egil took Artoria by the hand and walked slowly into the room of the supper.

At this moment, Egil, who was wearing a white evening dress carefully designed by the royal tailor produced by the system, looked even more radiant. As soon as he appeared, he received the admiration of a large number of Greek ladies. This also made Artoria feel even more uncomfortable. His face became more and more ugly.

"Alright, Hani. Have a good laugh. The happier you are, the angrier the others become. When you're angry, they're happy. Egil whispered to Artoria. Artoria muttered quietly, listened to Egil's words, and smiled. At the same time, he also glanced at the Greek noblewomen with the eyes that scare the enemy on the battlefield. The arm around Egil's arm tightened a little tighter, as a way to swear ownership.

If it had been on the battlefield now, the Greek ladies who might not have been able to kill even a chicken would have been terrified. But not now—if we talk about the experience of robbing men, and the means of being jealous in the love arena, these noble ladies who each have a dozen lovers are much better than Artoria, the dead girl who is pestered by Egil. Every well-trained lady was fearless in the eyes of Artoria. Even in a more provocative, explicit way to respond to Artoria's gaze - for example, pulling down the already low-cut skirt a little lower, or throwing a wink at Egil and .........the like,

"He's probably the luckiest man of all. Behind Egil, Lucived, Duke of Hesse, whispered to the other men. There was no lack of envy, jealousy and hatred for Egil's good womanhood in his voice.

"Luck, I think it's the most unlucky. Albrecht, Duke of Brandenburg, chuckled, pointed to Egil's left hand, which was being tightened by Altoria, and was about to be severed, and said, "It is said that the queen of Britain has more wrist strength than a brown bear...... Do you want to bet when our alliance leader will be strangled by his queen?"

"I guess, it was when they were doing [Shinsh God Slaughter] love. Henry, Duke of Bavaria, whispered the answer, followed by a reserved laugh.

"No, no, no...... Someone as smart as he seems to be would never have had anything like that ever happen. Next to him, Charles, the king of Burgundy, shook his head, and then pointed over: "Look, it will be coaxed soon." Our alliance leader's talent in this regard is not inferior to his talent for governing the country, or for killing people on the battlefield. ”

A few people looked over again. I found out that it was exactly what Charlie said. Egil didn't know what to say, which made Artoria smile, and the unpleasantness of the previous moment quickly vanished.

"Indeed, very talented...... "King Attila of Hungary finally spoke, "let us join in." Although not as talented as our alliance leader. But we have a better advantage than him, which is that we didn't bring our wife over ......" (to be continued......
