Faced with Shi Huizhen's evaluation, everyone was speechless for a while.

If it were someone else, he would have been kicked out a long time ago, and maybe there would be a fight. But unlike others, Shi Huizhen is a guest of honor in the literal sense of the word.

When she came here, she was personally introduced to everyone by the queen. And now, among the many traditional aristocratic families, Queen Anna is the only one who can have a certain influence on the government and politics.

And they are largely to blame for making such a fuss.

In the early years, the presence of the old Greek aristocracy in the Khan's court was still very strong. Through several key marriages and defections, many people achieved a certain status in the Khan's court.

Due to the long war, the upper echelons of the Purple Horde are very united and wary of these outsiders. Moreover, the Purple Horde had always taken the lower route before, and basically did not cooperate with the nobles everywhere. When I met these Greek nobles, even if they were in-laws, I didn't trust them very much.

However, the core of power of the Purple Horde was still two parts of the north and south at that time. And almost all the systems of the khanate were established by the Southern Yazhu states. The nobles of Beiya have some opinions on this, but they are really not good at it.

It stands to reason that at this time, the Greek nobles could take advantage of their cultural advantages to become qualified civil officials and builders of the system, and get the support of the nobles of the Northern Ya to restrain the princes of the Southern Ya, so as to obtain a fixed right to speak in the Khanate's court.

But the problem is that these Greek nobles did not form a united force, on the contrary, they continued to fight among themselves, and even tried to kill people with knives, taking advantage of the power struggle within the Purple Horde to eliminate their rivals.

In fact, the Empress Dowager Maria, who was married abroad at that time, was able to really obtain the power of regency, which was the result of the promotion of the nobles of the Northern Ya - these steppe people and Greeks actually emphasized filial piety every day and asked everyone in the Southern Ya to respect the Empress Dowager.

However, within the Northern Ya Army, there were even different opinions on how to treat the Khan's court. After losing the people who could suppress the various factions, the group of people who were most dissatisfied with the status quo directly launched a mutiny.

This move caused all parties to completely tear their faces, and even the rest of the Northern Ya Army could only stand in line at both ends. It could have been possible to slowly exert pressure on other people within the system to make concessions. Now it's okay, if you lose, there's nothing left......

In the process of processing, the operation of the Queen Mother Mary was also extremely bad. Not only did she not help the Khan's court solve the difficulties, but she did not even bring benefits to the Greek nobles - when the Northern Ya rebels came, the Empress Dowager Maria, who felt that she could not be defeated, actually led her troops to flee further south and robbed her brothers' territories to compensate. Even the Greeks couldn't stand her.

Later, when the Empress Dowager Helena was in power, there was actually no strict "Greek aristocratic group" around her. Because the Greek nobility could not unite at all......

Queen Helena came from the ruling family of Trabzon. In the eyes of the Han princes, these are all "Greeks", but the Greeks themselves do not think so. They have a whole bunch of bizarre ways of distinguishing and often exclude each other. The other families and the Empress Dowager Helena are not of the same heart, but because of her wrists, a group of court nobles has temporarily formed.

But the Queen Mother is only a tool for them to use tricks and tricks. These noblewomen were mainly close ministers, and they only operated in the court, and did not change the general trend of the old nobles losing their local management and military power.

Of course, the Queen Mother can't be blamed. In the past few decades, only two great nobles of the former dynasty have been high-ranking officials at the level of the Zhu State:

One was John Palaiologo, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites at the time of Basil III, who was the cousin of Empress Anna and the only person in the Palaiologos family who could work for so many years, at least with good speech skills, so he was specially appointed to appease them after the large-scale statistics of acres in Greece at that time.

Another reason was that the Purple Horde was so powerful that it could calm down the Catholic countries for a while and engage in diplomacy with them. Therefore, his main job was to travel everywhere and lobby among the European courts. If nothing else, the Greeks are quite good at coaxing Western Europeans......

The other was Isaac Ducasse, the Grand Duke of the Navy at the time of Guo Li. The problem is, he, the Dukas, must be a fake. Master Frajos once said privately that he had researched the genealogy of the Ducasse family and found that there were many impersonators, even more than one.

His family, claiming to be from Little Asia, found that his ancestors were actually from the Caucasus or even further away. Even those who pretended to be the Ducasse family in the previous dynasty and finally got the title of nobility are not of the same origin. I don't know which Turkmen savage in the mountains came to Runjunbao and pretend to be a nobleman.

Therefore, the old aristocrats cannot provide the talents they need now, and they do not look down on the new upstarts. In the end, it can only be reduced to such a point.

This is the reason why Shi Huizhen quarreled with Frajos last time.

Frahos believes that the cultural level of these "newcomers" is too bad, after all, they are just outsiders who have come to take refuge. But Shi Huizhen reminded him that his own family was also a wild man in the Caucasus back then. Is it really appropriate to laugh at the wild man of hundreds of years ago?

As a result, Frajos was speechless, and she became famous at the party.

Of course, if she is angry again, Frajos can't do anything about her.

As everyone knows, now the relationship that the old nobles can climb on, there is only the queen. Moreover, like the Empress Dowager Helena, she was not a descendant before she became the queen, so she was not too valued, and her relationship with the old nobles could only be regarded as an ordinary level. Everyone can only step up their efforts now.

Unlike Queen Elizabeth, who knew about martial arts and fights every day, Queen Anna often showed up on weekdays, and also called on everyone to promote education and culture. To this end, she also took the lead in organizing events, holding rallies and gathering a large number of followers. The old nobles finally got a chance to get ahead, and of course they didn't dare to offend her.

And Shi Huizhen is not only the queen's guest, but also a rare person in this group of people who was born in the pillar country, and belongs to rare guests and noble guests. Everyone thinks that the queen made an exception to take care of her before and deliberately supported her, which was intentional. Because in this circle, there is finally a talent who has the ability to intervene in military command. And as we all know, the foundation of the Purple Horde is the legion, and how important she is, you can see how important she is.

Therefore, even if he was directly ridiculed, Frajos could only endure it.

"Scripts aren't just for performances. The most important thing is cultural connotation and artistry. He felt that Shi Huizhen didn't understand it anyway, so he directly emphasized: "It's normal for civilians not to understand, because this is very esoteric knowledge." Theatre and philosophy have always mirrored each other. Aristophanes and Socrates will be able to interact in the play. For nearly 2,000 years, thoughtful writers have always insisted on this. ”

However, Shi Huizhen didn't realize that this was actually mocking her, and her knowledge was similar to that of a civilian. Instead, she thought hard for a moment and asked, "I heard from the people of the Li family that drama is a thing that affects combat effectiveness very much. It turns out that it is still mixed with philosophy......"

"You've studied theater and philosophy for two thousand years, and you're getting weaker and weaker. It means that there is something wrong with this thing, you didn't find it? She questioned: "I think the Greeks are becoming more and more unable to fight, even the Turkmen bandits in the mountains, and this is inseparable from this." In the final analysis, it is probably the fault of the ancestor Socrates! ”
