The little sunfish arrived at the port of Mytilene, her family's former home, about two months ago on a gorgeous yacht. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info@Chinese@Novel W.。

Gifted to her by Gawain before his departure, the yacht was decorated with silk and fine leather sails, with a gold-filled mast and silver-filled bow, and was originally the ship of the great pirate Winmoha, which was later bought by Gawain for fifteen hundred Byzantit gold coins, and was originally intended to be the flagship yacht of Caesar and the Grand Patron of the Kingdom of Tarsus, but now that the little sunfish has returned to the island of Respas, "the Emperor cannot be made to despise Agnes, which would be of great benefit to her grandfather's safety." So Gawain gave her the yacht.

The gray-haired girl was standing on the deck, and she regained her woman's attire and dress, and her hair was braided, and her expression became sad, and she looked at the harbor, which was as old as the island, and which was as old as the island, and which to the northeast stretched out a long and sloping headland, on which a lighthouse was built with rocks, and which held the bay tenderly in her arms, and a long circular trestle bridge was built along the headland and the land, in which all sorts of sailboats of all colors came and went.

Mytilene is almost synonymous with Respos, and the island on which the port is located is almost inseparable from the Mediterranean archaic: first occupied by force by a family named Peslidani from the Thessaly region, and for more than 500 years, the rule of this family was carried out by a man named Pitacus. He was replaced by an indigenous general (most likely of Hittites) who imposed an Athenian-style democracy throughout the island, and the port southeast of the island of Lespos was named in his honor.

At the same time as General Mytilene, the famous poetess of ancient Greece, Sappho, who was praised as the tenth muse in classical times, but also tried to hide her identity and orientation, in the paintings of that era, the black-eyed Sappho stared at the young male poet Alcaios playing on the harp opposite, as if interested in men; But later, or now, people prefer to think of her as the originator of "lace-edges", in fact, the word les comes from lesbos, or lesbos.

Of course, according to Gawain's thoughts: "What are you fighting for?" Sappho, like Agnes, should be more bisexual. If I go back in time to the seventh century B.C., I will prove it to you. ”

The island nation became famous as a general and poetess, and later re-entered the annals of history with the arrival of Caesar, who first went into battle on the island of Respas, and of course in his spare time he would go to Bithynia to "mingle" with the king there.

After Caesar, the island lost its glory and remained silent for thousands of years, and remained undisturbed under the rule of the Eastern Roman Empire, except on one occasion, a naval rebel named Thomas used the island as a base to besiege Constantinople, which ended in failure.

Ten years earlier, Zahas, the Turkic emir of Nicaea, had led a convoy of ships to attack the island, but although he captured the port of Mytilene, Alexios' garrison retreated to the fortress of Massemna in the northwest corner of the island, and finally made Zahas retreat.

The defense of Massem was inseparable from the great assistance of the little sunfish's grandfather Magrundius, when the island's most famous family burned down his home, and retreated to the city of Massem with Agnes, who was only six or seven years old, and donated all his family wealth and freed all the house slaves, and fought side by side with the defenders, so that Zahas could not get local supplies at all, and contributed a lot to the victory.

So now, even if the emperor put Maglendius under house arrest, he could only treat him with courtesy, restricting his activities to Messemna, hoping to force her granddaughter to come back and not serve Gawain.

So, Agnes, who got off the ship, was "escorted" by a group of archers from the Emperor's orphaned forbidden army, and rode a mule to the city of Massemna.

The castle is located on a raised hill at the base of the headland, in a triangular shape, which controls the sea on both sides and the protruding headland land, where Agnes' grandfather was placed under house arrest.

Soon after, the Grand Governor of the court, Little Bird, arrived on the island himself, and in the castle he took the recipe from the little sunfish with a smile on his face, while the white-haired Magrendius sat in front of the arch formed by the elevated aqueduct, and several pigeons jumped around him.

"It is worthy of Prani, who is proficient in machinery, with such a Khitan fire, it will be much easier for the emperor's army to restore the territory of the empire." Nick Demia respectfully and flatteringly tucked the recipe into his sleeve, and then leaned over to speak to Magrundius.

"Your Excellency, it must be clarified that this recipe was only obtained by this kid from someone else, and it is definitely not our Prani's." Then the dying Maglendius recited an inscription in a hoarse voice, "When you do something, you should do it well, but the problem is that I didn't do it." ”

The little bird, who was born in the village of Paphragonia, of course did not understand that the old nobleman's words came from the motto of General Mytilene, and he continued to smile and reassure him, "Actually, it is all the same, and soon the emperor will give his granddaughter a suitable husband, and magnify the lintel of Plani." ”

"Which declining former Anatolian military noble? Or is it a palace guard newly promoted by the emperor? Maglendius spoke with a slight contempt.

This made the palace governor a little embarrassed, but he was also inconvenient, and when he was about to continue explaining, the gray-haired girl standing there had complicated eyes, but her expression was resolute, and she turned to Nicodemia and said, "Don't worry about your majesty, I have already committed to a man in Tarsus, and I am no longer a virgin." ”

This sentence embarrassed the two old men at the same time.

Then the noble chief steward coughed lightly, "In that case, then I still have some reason to worry that my granddaughter will be deceived and deceived by the emperor's enemies," and then he raised his hand, and from the other side of the fortress came a group of people wearing badge robes, Agnes knew their identities, they were all craftsmen of the palace armory, "so we have to make compliant Khitan firearms on the spot here, so that we can return to the Brachna Palace to report to Your Majesty." ”

"Yes, I'll wait here, Agnes, what about you?"

"Grandpa, I'll be by your side." The little sunfish is indispensable, and as she spoke, she handed the box containing the drawings into the hands of the chief manager, although she now hated Gawain for taking away her virginity, but she also knew that Gawain would not trap her.

Nickdemia chuckled dryly, and then motioned for the soldiers and craftsmen to hurry up the production here, and he himself was responsible for monitoring the progress of both Agnes and the craftsmen, for the Emperor was anxious to wait for this in Adrianople.

No, Agnes was alone with her grandfather under the arch of the aqueduct, which was also a kind of preferential treatment, after all, the emperor only wanted the formula, and did not want to and did not dare to abuse the name of Plani too much: Komnenos treated the big nobles in the country more by marriage, just like the Romanus Emperor of the Macedonian Dynasty did back then, so that the throne would be stable and peaceful.

"Grandpa, me" Agnes covered her face with some embarrassment at this time, after all, she still has a girl's face in her bones. (To be continued.) )
