Chapter 55: Confrontation

"You don't have to worry about this. At that time, I will naturally give Mikhail an unforgettable lesson, which can be regarded as my reciprocating response to the emperor's care for me during this period." Justinian replied calmly in his carriage. He obviously had already recorded the accounts in his words, but it didn't sound like he was making harsh words at all, but he just made a statement of the facts in a plain manner.

Looking at Justinian's deep eyes beside him, Antonia Doria stretched lazily without any doubts, "Since that's the case, if you need any help, just speak up! It's also considered that I'll repay the favor I owe you before. At least I can still help with this little thing." After all, there is some reason why Justinian was targeted this time. Antonia promised so much, and her confident tone seemed to be like Justinian, and she didn't take Mikhail Ducas, the actual ruler of Epirus seriously.

At this time, the speed of the carriage suddenly slowed down a lot. The gates of Rusnina had also entered the sight of Justinian and Antonia. They finally returned safely. After all this was over, they could temporarily leave this place of right and wrong-

However, in fact, it is not as simple as you think. The so-called ending is just like this on the surface.

From a distance, I saw a group of people in front of the city gate waiting there. Although I didn't know the identity of the other party or what their intention was, Justinian and Antonia noticed that something was wrong in the atmosphere.

"Is it yours?"

"It doesn't seem to be. I thought it was yours before." Antonia shook her head and denied, which made Justinian's expression slightly sank. It was obvious at a glance that the group of people there seemed to be a bad person.

"What should we do, Miss Antonia?" The driver was Antonia's man. Although he was loyal, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous when he looked at the scene in front of him.

The ex-boy at the city gate had almost been cleared at this time. The panicked crowd was driven away rudely, and even some merchants had no time to take away their cargo and luggage. However, no one dared to express his dissatisfaction, let alone prevent such rude behavior. Even the soldiers guarding the city hid far away and dared not interfere. All this was because the people guarding the city gate were not ordinary people, but members of the imperial imperial guards. They were fully armed and seemed to be waiting for something. They obviously knew who their target was, and their eyes were locked in the carriage coming here. The group of people showed malicious smiles on their faces. Just waiting for a command, they seemed to pounce fiercely, like a pack of wolves hunting.

"Let's go on a detour, Miss! This group of people are obviously coming for us." The coachman in the car only thought for a second or two before making a judgment. If he continues to move forward, he will definitely encounter danger. If he is intercepted, it will be bad.

"No, walking by detour will only make one lose one's own way and keep moving forward as it is." Justinian said calmly, preventing the coachman from turning the front of the car.

"Miss..." The coachman with a hesitant expression looked at his master behind him. Antonia Doria said nothing, but told him to obey Justinian's orders with his eyes.

Seeing this, the helpless driver had to nod and gritted his teeth and continued to drive the carriage forward and towards Rusnina City.

In this way, Justinian and Antonia, who were sitting in the carriage, finally saw clearly who was standing in front of them - in addition to the fully armed Imperial Guards, there was also a familiar face. It was the Agontopuri rider who was beaten up in a mess by Justinian at the martial arts competition. Justinian vaguely remembered that this man seemed to be the nephew of Valensdore, the commander of the Imperial Guards. But he appeared here with such a bad intention, clearly waiting for him and Antonia, which made Justinian feel a little shocked, but even so, he had already remained calm.

"Can they have seen through our identities?" Antonia's boyish eyebrows also frowned slightly, and she noticed the abnormality just like Justinian.

However, Justinian raised his index finger at his mouth, "Don't panic, they shouldn't have seen through our identity yet. If I'm not wrong, these guys are just coming to cause trouble for me. In fact, they don't know who you and I are at all. Maybe they still think I'm a small character who does the work for Prince Theodor." Justinian smiled coldly, "It's not honest enough. If these idiots really know our identity, they are afraid they may not dare to stop us."

"Why are you so sure?" The coachman was a little surprised at Justinian's firm attitude, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned. "You know that our identity is fake. If it is exposed, we will be finished!"

But Justinian was still confident, "Who dared to arrest Molia's governor like this little? No matter whether I am alone or not, these small characters will not be on the way to jump up." Justinian said coldly, "Continue to move forward and open a passage!"

"Okay, let's believe you, kid!" After gritting his teeth, the coachman had to continue to wave his whip and urge the horse to move forward. Now it is only a short distance from the city gate. No matter how unwilling he is, it is too late.

The carriage drove away and finally arrived at the city of Rusnina. Then, as expected, it was stopped by the group of imperial guards in front of the city gate.

"Stop it!" Standing in front was the nephew of the lord Valens's house, his face still had the bruise left by Justinian on his face, and he looked very funny. He stood in front of the car, and the soldiers of the guards on both sides crossed the way tightly with spears in their hands, and then a group of people surrounded him.

The atmosphere became tense instantly. Looking at the tense scene, the driver of the car tried his best to calm down and said loudly: "What do you want to do? The car is sitting on the car, Ezesa Border Bo and Madam Border Bo! We accepted the invitation from His Majesty Mikhail to come here, just after the martial arts competition. Is your attitude the hospitality method of Rusnina City?" He strengthened his courage and took a deep breath. The driver of the coach held the horse whip and shouted loudly: "Now! Go away!"
