Eagle Byzantium

PS. Here is today's update. By the way, I'll vote for the 515 Fan Festival. Everyone has 8 votes. Voting will also give you coins. I beg you to support and appreciate!

"If the Calegos brothers had joined forces with you in advance, you could have headed straight to Seleucia City to avoid being stopped here. But if that were the case, would you betray Gawain?" Anna showed her glittering teeth and smiled hypothetically.

Cabeamia was speechless.

It's not that she didn't want to say it, but she couldn't answer Anna's words. No matter how she answered this question, it would be a huge trap - it would be impossible for her to answer "If the Calegos brothers had joined forces with me", which would be a death sentence; but if she were an ordinary person, she might have said without hesitation that it would be impossible for me to betray Gawain.

However, if the words "I can't betray Gawain" were said by ordinary soldiers, such as Melo, Birrell, and Lambert, Anna would only be moved, but when it was said by her, Cabe Amiya, it was like throwing herself into the trap...

"It is indeed like this! You are attached to Gawain's love for you, so it is impossible for you to betray him, right? Otherwise, why would you say such words so skillfully? It's like what a wife says to her husband." Cabe Amiya could already simulate Anna's resentful expression and criticism in her mind.

"I don't know. First, the emperor didn't send a secret envoy at all, and second, the emperor probably didn't think it was necessary to send one. Now the power of the Paul faction has been completely ignored and will not pose any threat to anyone." Cabe Amiya thought for a few seconds, and then kicked the ball to Gawain's miserable father-in-law very smoothly, which was also equivalent to showing weakness and goodwill to Anna.

Anna was speechless, but she was not in a bad mood recently, especially in Zephirim City, where she calmly pacified the rebellion before Gawain returned. It was enough for her to boast proudly for a while, but now she decided to let it go to Cabeamia. "I can give you some of the felling rights of the Hardy Mountains for free. After all, you are a good believer leader, Cabeamia." After saying that, Anna took the order book from the little sunfish. After all, this aspect was still under the management of her, the head of the Agricultural Supervision Department. After stamping the Qiling small seal, Cabeamia bowed and stepped forward, respectfully taking the book.

"Your fingers and waist are very slender, which is really enviable." At the moment of the wrong hand, Anna suddenly pinched Cabeamia's fingertips.

"No. I am just an ignorant girl in the countryside. I was really excited to be praised by the elegant and noble Princess in Purple." The Golden Hand Archon also responded in fluent Greek.

The little sunfish stood in the middle, almost yawning, but it was gratifying that the two women secretly continued the short, lightning-fast confrontation for less than half a minute. It was considered to be over, and the situation briefly returned to calm.

In the Presbyterian Church of Rum Town, Anna rested for a night, and when she got up the next day. She first asked the Pauline believers not to fill in the horizontal canal dug by the rebels before, "because that was a gift from the rebels. With two canals, the surrounding land can be irrigated." Anna said sarcastically, and then many people who applied for the job and were proficient in written language and writing in the entire area, whether in Latin or Greek. They all came to the church at the call of the Purple Princess and the recommendation of the Brotherhood (in charge of towns and administrative affairs) and the Self-Reform Society (in charge of rural reclamation, arbitration and religious affairs). Although Anna nominally found some members of other departments to form a temporary meeting. But everyone knew in their hearts that the Purple Princess, who was "listening" behind the silk curtain, was the person who could really exert a decisive influence.

Even Cabeamia stood respectfully on the steps to the left of the curtain.

In addition, Cabeamia's former confidential officer Philactos was also among the people being questioned. In fact, he also had to act as a pawn and spy for the female archon when necessary to spy on what the purple princess was up to.

Who would have thought that Anna would ask Philactos first, "This young man, are you a Pauline believer?"

"Yes, but I also studied in a language school..."

"Is it because your parents sent you there?"

"That's not entirely true, Princess Purple, please allow me to report - my mother was originally just an ordinary shepherdess, and later she was defiled by her godfather, the abbot of the local monastery, and then I was born, so under the care of the abbot, I was able to study in the local Greek school for a few years."

"Do you hate your father?"

"It's a subtle feeling, Your Highness. I am grateful to him. I was given life, but because of my hatred for him, after his death, I thought I had seen through the hypocrisy of the Orthodox Church and joined the ranks of true believers. "

Anna nodded behind the curtain, "So what kind of knowledge did your father give you? Do you know mathematics and geometry? Do you know agronomy and medicine? Do you know grammar, rhetoric and astronomy?"

"I am best at grammar, and I can write official documents in Greek fluently. I think my father wanted to train me to be competent in government documents and law before he died, so that I can have a good future in the imperial capital. As for other things, I also know a little about mathematics and agronomy."

Anna continued to nod, and then said loudly, "You are all well-versed in culture, and you must have heard about the schools and education in the former imperial capital. However, in the schools of the imperial capital, even St. Peter's College (equivalent to the University of Constantinople), students only like to learn grammar and rhetoric, writing, and law, because this allows them to quickly enter the government and is a shortcut to career. But in Seleucia, it is different. I stipulate that in addition to these three subjects, I emphasize the importance of music, art, mathematics, geometry, astronomy, agronomy, and architecture, which are collectively called the "Ten Arts". Therefore, in order to promote these arts and cultivate more and more qualified and excellent scribes, judges, market notaries, inspectors, cantors, engineers, agronomists, and craftsmen, I decided to take out the remaining 3,000 Byzantine gold coins in the budget on the high platform north of the large hospital and post station area that is about to be completed, and spend my half-year personal money to build an independent college and library in Seleucia!"

One 6-9 book one bar, a correct version at a glance!

Then, everyone was shocked, but Anna's tone didn't sound like a joke at all. "This college with a library is also called St. Paul's College. The scenery on the north platform is very good, with many beautiful trees and rivers and streams below, which is conducive to students' intensive thinking and learning. Craftsmen are also ready. After the completion of the large hospital, they will immediately start to build the college. I will arrange for staff to settle the salary contract immediately." Then Anna stood up and said, "To avoid gossip, I hereby declare that this is the common wish of the Grand Duke and me. The college is not prepared to use advanced technology as a tool. , it is the same as the relief center, which is a facility that benefits ordinary people. Anyone who is of school age, including other parts of Anatolia, can come to study, and the content of learning must be popular and easy to understand. The teachers will be selected from you first, and you can enjoy extra salary and food, so be ready to create a truly eternal and indelible career based on the wilderness and gravel of Beigaotai today!
