Chapter 836: Meeting the Aral Sea


Constantinople Byzantium, Grand Palace.

Queen Irina wore a laurel crown on her head and trailed a long skirt, walking slowly on the ground paved with smooth mirror-like stones.

Her beautiful eyebrows were frowning, and the fingers of her left hand were pinched with her right hand and turned a little white.

Two attendants at the door of the Government Affairs Hall immediately stretched out their hands to stop them.

One of them said: "Dear Your Majesty the Queen, Your Majesty the Emperor is handling official business and doesn't see anyone."

Irina was furious, "I want to see my husband, why don't I get your permission and get out of here?"

The guard lowered his head and said: "It is your responsibility, please don't embarrass us, Your Majesty the Queen."

Constantine V in the political hall heard the sound and shouted: "Irina, come in" The two guards immediately stepped aside and lowered their heads again: "Your Majesty, please" "Humph" Irina snorted coldly, fluttered her sleeves and walked into the government affairs hall.

The forty-three-year-old Constantine V grew up tall and strong, but his many years as emperor made him look a little older, older than his actual age.

When he heard the footsteps, he put down his quill and looked up with a smile.

He looked at Irina and said with a smile: "My queen, why are you here today?"

Irina said dissatisfied: "Huh, now I have to get the permission of the watchdog if I want to see my husband.

It seems that my wife is really annoying."

Constantine V quickly stood up and said with a smile: "My dear Irina, how can you say that?

I have too many official affairs to deal with these days.

In order to concentrate on handling government affairs, I specially asked the guards to stay outside. , Just don’t be disturbed.

By the way, why did you come to see me?

If you have something, can’t you wait until I get back at night?”

Irina walked over with an unhappy look on her face and said: "The Tang Dynasty's Western Qin army is about to attack Samandar.

Do you think I can win the throne in the bedroom?

Although I have been married to you for more than 20 years and have been fighting for a living."

I have six children, but the Khazar Khanate is my mother country after all, how could I watch it being attacked by the Tang people and ignore it?"

"Oh, so you also know about this matter."

Constantine V touched his forehead and asked, "You are here to ask me to order troops to reinforce the Khazar Khanate."

"Yes" Constantine V said: "But you also know that I am deploying an attack against the Bulgars.

I have no extra energy and troops to help the Khazar Khanate.

Compared with the Tang people, the Slavs and Slavs in Thrace are The Bulgars in the north are a serious problem for our Eastern Roman Empire."

Irina argued hard: "The Slavs and Bulgars are not provoking us now.

If we provoke a dispute without authorization, we will definitely give them an excuse to go south and invade our Eastern Roman Empire, regardless of our marriage relationship with the Khazar Khanate.

In terms of relations, the Khazar Khanate has always been a staunch ally of our Eastern Roman Empire.

Our Eastern Roman Empire has cooperated with the Arabs many times.

During the war, the Khazar Khanate sent heavy troops to help us.

Now that the Khazar Khanate is in trouble, shouldn’t we lend a helping hand?

If we watch the Khazar Khanate being attacked and destroyed by the Tang and Western Qin armies, we will not be able to help us in the future.

Who will ally with us?

My dear, my Majesty, you are a king with outstanding vision and talent.

How can you lose the big for the small?"

Constantine V pondered for a moment and then said: "Okay, Irina, I will seriously consider your suggestion, and I still need to discuss it with the military and political ministers.

You can go back first."

"Huh, okay":
