The Eagle of Eastern Europe

"My dear brother, your daughter has made an engagement with Prince Theodore. This is a great joy!" Charlie said angrily: "You didn't even hold a banquet to invite us to celebrate, even during this period You can't even come out to see people. Is it because you are now His Majesty's relative and feel that your status is high, so you look down on us old brothers?"

"Don't talk nonsense! I made it clear to you last time. It's not that I don't want to celebrate, it's because neither His Majesty nor the Queen want to make a fuss, so His Majesty specifically gave me instructions to do that. "

"Hahaha..." Charlie smiled heartily: "I heard that Prince Theodore is handsome and handsome. How many people wanted to marry him. In the end, your daughter succeeded. This fully proves that Sophia is very good!"

Mason said modestly: "It's not that she's excellent, but His Highness the Prince has taken a fancy to her, otherwise it wouldn't be possible."

"Okay, don't be complacent! Tonight's banquet is just for us to celebrate you, and you have to get drunk before you can go home!"

"Okay, okay, definitely."

Charlie took his younger brother to introduce to everyone, "Let me introduce to you, this is my younger brother, the first person to explore the East, the Imperial Finance Minister, His Excellency Andrew Mason, Earl of Sarah."

After such a series of titles, everyone finally met the first person to explore the East. He single-handedly changed the trade itinerary, while exploring southward expanded the scope of trade. He has become the idol of many explorers. They were also surprised to see a real person today.

"Meet the adults!"

Mason waved his hand and found a place to sit down. All the businessmen looked at themselves, and he knew that they wanted to get inside information about the government so that they could use this information to make more money.

"Your Excellency works in the Imperial Treasury, can you tell me a little bit about the situation? We also want to contribute to the Empire?" A businessman couldn't hold himself back and said.

"Everything in the empire is at peace now, and I accept your wishes on behalf of His Majesty the Emperor. However, the empire is preparing to focus on developing Ruthenia, and you can try your luck there.

In addition, you can also go to Russia. They need a lot of things, and they still have a lot of amber in their hands. However, the journey is far away, so don't move if you don't have strong strength. "

Everyone was ecstatic, because their strength was relatively small and they couldn't compete in the Mediterranean. Let's see if Ruthenia could have a place for them.

"Come on, everyone, have a drink to our noble Emperor. Without him, our current life would not be possible." Mason picked up the wine glass and said to everyone.

"To His Majesty the Emperor!"

Everyone toasted to His Majesty Emperor Peter. Without him, there would be no happy life now. Of course, they also toasted to Mircea who was still alive. Without him, we still don’t know what the East would be like.

At this moment, a dull bell sounded from the direction of Hagia Sophia. They put down their glasses, not knowing what happened.

"It seems that someone died." Mason said.

Only members of the royal family can ring the death knell in Hagia Sophia, but they dare not speculate without clear information. We can only wait for news from the royal family.

Soon, the messenger from the palace arrived here and said something in Andrew's ear. He hurriedly rode away, telling them not to act rashly and to be careful in normal transactions.

At this time in the Royal Palace of Constantinople, Peter was sitting by the bed, looking at his father who had closed his eyes, while his mother and wife were sobbing beside him.

"He went to heaven and God will bless him," Peter said.

Watching his father pass away, the past kept flashing through his mind. Without his father's support, he would not have achieved what he has achieved now. It would take more time to defeat Osman, and he was grateful to his father.

Before he left, he used his last strength to tell his son that he must be careful about Poland. This country is capricious. Unless it is completely eliminated, he would not dare to take advantage of your decline to tear off a piece of your flesh.

"Peter, do you still remember when you first became Lord of Constanta?... I remember that you were very excited at that time... and you also managed the place very well... and your performance on the battlefield was also very brave... You also took the lead in the fight against the Ottomans... I felt at that time that you would become a great person...

Now it proves how correct my choice was! ...I became the emperor, the ruler of this empire, and now that I see you governing so well, I have no regrets..."

"By the way, you...must occupy Poland...that Jagiełło will not give up...you have taken away so much of his land, and he will definitely come back for revenge.

And your brothers... There are many incidents of brothers killing each other in history... I hope such a tragedy will not happen again... Remember... Remember. "

Peter burst into tears after hearing this. He now knew that he wanted Poland and Lithuania to be buried together for his father. In this way, my father will be very happy in heaven.

In the late spring of 1418, Mircea I, Grand Duke of Wallachia, Grand Duke of Moldova, and founder of the Patran dynasty of the Roman Empire, died at the age of 63.

Later, the whole of Constantinople knew the news, and the citizens burst into tears. They remember the emperor who brought them peace. Some old people also know that it was 18 years ago that he led an army to sweep across Anatolia, bringing long-lost peace and prosperity to the empire.

Peter had his brothers and sisters, as well as his son and daughter-in-law, informed to come to Constantinople to attend the funeral. Before that, the eunuchs were responsible for cleaning Mircea's body, applying perfume to it, and putting on gorgeous clothes. And gold coins were covered on the eyes.

The whole city was filled with sadness. The body of the former emperor was placed in the church. Peter brought his mother and wife to pay tribute to his father, and then the ministers, generals, and then ambassadors from various countries, who offered their condolences to the emperor.

More of them were the citizens of Constantinople. Mircea worked hard for this city that had experienced many catastrophes and provided great help. Constantinople can restore today's prosperity, Mircea has contributed a lot, how can the citizens not remember his kindness! Therefore, on this day, the citizens did not talk about the rugby game happily, nor did they go to the restaurant to drink, but there was a constant stream of worshippers outside the church.

But although everyone looked sad and solemn, there was almost no crying, and it was relatively quiet. According to the Bible, people will go to heaven after death, and their emperor must have gone to heaven to live in that land of eternal joy.
