Four hundred and seventy-two, pond fish cage bird
Thranduil could tell that the Lone Mountain King was in a good mood. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
That's right, Nader should be the most in the mood right now. The long war that has been going on for more than two years is coming to an end, and the long-awaited nectar of war for the entire dwarven race is about to come. This glory is enough to wash away the image of greed for money for nearly a hundred years, and as the king with the highest status and the greatest responsibility of the dwarves, it is indeed worth rejoicing. However, Thranduil knew very well that Nader was able to have the simplest happiness because of his simple purpose.
There is no invisible conspiracy, and there is no purpose that is not afraid to be known, in order to have the purest happiness. I have done all this trick, hiding behind my back and doing dirty things, how can even the spirits around me be retributioned for me, how can I have pure happiness?
The Elf King, who felt that his cheeks were a little hot, restrained his envy of King Nader, and retracted his eyes very face-saving.
"Why do you say that?" he raised his glass to Nader, and Thranduil urged with a sense of irritability, "Just talk about it." I'm not in the mood to ridicule right now. ”
"Good!" Mistaking the Elven King's helplessness for a temporary halt in the war, Nader even took away the wine that had been brought to his lips. "King Serdan is here, because of him, you can't use brute force against the human emperor. The King of Gondor could not disrespect their nominal emperor. And I'm a dwarf, the elves don't care about me, and I can also be a human without giving face. No one has the right to interfere with the human emperor. Look, I'm going to go to the Human Emperor and let him get out of the war zone as soon as possible?"
"You mean to drive him away with coaxing and scolding?" Thranduil thought only about that scene for a moment, and then could no longer stop laughing, and even his mood improved. He patted Nader's shoulder with a smile and said in an envious tone: "People treat him well as the nominal emperor, and the king of my clan and the bald man of Lingu care for him very much. Let's save some face for the Human Emperor. ”
"Why don't you give him face? When you go, you can open all the living beings, close the doors and windows, open the scolding, and the scolding will be over? If you need to, I can still show respect to him in front of human beings. Nader, who was eager to capture Mordor, was very persistent, and said with all his might: "Besides, it doesn't matter who you are, it's not right to delay the destruction of the evil forces." The human emperor has done something wrong, and he doesn't deserve to lose face? The great enemy is right in front of him, so what does it matter if he doesn't have face?"
Thranduil wanted to be as headstrong as Nader, and he even thought of the pleasure of scolding the Emperor when he left. But there are some things that can only be imagined by the Elf King. One move would implicate all the elves in the woodland, and the elven king knew that he had long since lost his right to be willful.
"For the sake of the Gondor people, who have been in full respect for us, and have been providing for the war for two years, preserve the dignity of their emperor. When he said this, Thranduil couldn't stop sighing: "Even if it is a name, it is the supreme king of the human race who keeps the fragment of the holy sword and wears the Yixing. Moreover, his name as Emperor was recognized by all the Gondor people. If you don't treat him as a human emperor, you are disrespectful to the Gondor. ”
Why did the Elven King start speaking for the Emperor?
Suspicious, Nader glanced at the Elven King seriously, and as soon as his eyes swept to the pointed ears of the blonde king, he suddenly realized--I'm so stupid!
Elves and humans have been best friends for thousands of years. King Thranduil was also an elf. It's good that he doesn't know, he knows that I'm going to scold the human emperor but doesn't stop it, isn't it against the kindness of the elves? Fortunately, I'm not an elf, otherwise I don't know how much I have to do to wronged myself for the "kindness" logo on my head.
Although he understood Thrandil's concerns, Nader still asked reluctantly, "Do you really disapprove of me going to the Human Emperor?" ”
"It seems that too many things have happened in the past few days, not only do I think that the Emperor of Man has been here for a long time, but you also have such a misunderstanding?" Recalling the twists and turns of Gondor's night, Thranduil said tiredly: "Although it feels as if he has been here for months, we can't forget the fact that Valandil only arrived here early yesterday morning. Xingshi will go back in a few days, and his whereabouts are so strange that it will bring criticism. ”
With 20,000 elite soldiers, it took months to reach Gondor, only to stop for a few days and then leave, an act that would be associated with the word "gray" and attract attention. Even if the Emperor tried his best to cover it up, sooner or later the news of Gondor's secession from the Emperor's autonomy would spread throughout Middle-earth. At that time, all living beings will know that the Emperor of Men has indeed left in disgrace. This negative image is definitely not a good thing for the living beings who still retain the name of the emperor.
It is obviously the best way to make the unbearable defeat known to the whole of Middle-earth later, and to pretend that nothing has happened. So, it's very likely that the newly grown hairy boy will continue to stay in the war zone as if he is fine?
Thinking of this, Nader, who has always been hearty, couldn't help frowning.
"Is it up to him to stay as long as he likes?" said the bearded King of the Lonely Mountain with some anger, "No! The victory of Mordor is just around the corner, how can you delay the time for the dwarves to gain glory because of the desire to accommodate him? The elves and humans are accustomed to the human emperor, that is your business, and we dwarves do not care." But the dwarves have no obligation or need to be with you. Give him three more days. If he still hasn't left after three days, I won't be polite to him. ”
With a hint of jealousy, Nader also complained to the Elf King in a low voice: "A human child who may not have dried up his milk, relying on the blood of his ancestors to become the highest-ranking human emperor, does not know how to restrain, let alone stand on the side of the righteous camp, and acts only according to his own interests. Saying that he doesn't know each other is that it's light to tell him to get out. If he is a dwarf, see if I don't give him a hard lesson! Let him understand that the idea that 'the world is a parent, and I deserve to be left to me' can only be exchanged for a painful blow to the dwarf!"
Nader's words sounded pleasing to Thrandil.
It seems that I am not the only creature in the whole of Middle-earth who wants to attack the human emperor? Yes, the creature with the mentality that 'all the world is a parent, and I deserve to be left to it' should indeed be attacked. Otherwise, God knows how wrong he would be. If humanity is in chaos, the power to confront Sauron in the future will also be weakened. In this way, what I did to the emperor of the people cannot be completely described as "attack", and it can be regarded as playing a certain educational role.
While the guilt in his heart was alleviated, Thranduil was also ready to deal with the king's questioning. He decided that sooner or later the Ship King would have to hold himself accountable for what had happened to Gondor. The eldest elf hasn't done anything wrong with him yet, just because he hasn't had time to step away from something more important. Accountability is an act that does not change the established facts, and a delay in doing so will not affect anything.
