Four hundred and twenty-seven, each has its own merits
It was this sentence that made the two elves, a man and a woman, withdraw from their sadness and decide what to do next in a short journey. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info When their carriage marched to the entrance of the Micheng Palace, two good news came. The good news is that Melandiel's family was saved before the fire was lit. Another piece of good news was that since the people who attacked the soldiers were all related to them by blood, the emperor's personal guards did not dare to move without permission. When the guards arrived in need of the Gondor, who were called elders, the guards who should have been strictly commanded by the emperor simply took this opportunity to "tie their hands down", and under the exaggerated and useless "struggle", they handed themselves over to the control of the people.
Merandiel's family is safe, and the next step is to find a way to protect the Emperor. Without hesitation, Serdan stood in front of the carriage and shouted to the people who had blocked the palace at all, "I am King Linton, Serdan from the Elves of Telleri. Please give me this opportunity to ask the Emperor to agree to your request as an elf. ”
To the Gondor people, Serdan was no stranger. This elf, who had a constant relationship with the deceased national teacher and was also deeply respected by the national teacher, was naturally a trustworthy creature in the eyes of the Gondor people, not to mention that every word of this king was full of awe for the people. In a matter of moments, the noisy people gradually quieted down, and quickly made way for the carriage of the king of the boats. Until the carriage reached the gates of the council hall, the people who were not angry with King Gondor remained quiet under the influence of King Serdan himself. And the people who were pushing the door in front of the council hall, shouting for the emperor to come out and give an explanation, also temporarily sat in front of the gate under the persuasion of Sedan and "Uncle Huangzu".
At this time, the Elf King had already brought the Human Emperor into the secret room, and there was no way to detect the situation outside. And the Arnor officials and soldiers, who were trying their best to stabilize the situation in the palace, also opened the door at the sound of Serdan and Elrond. As Vernorr was the last to step out of the carriage and walk straight into the council hall, he heard an official informing Serdan and Elrond of the Emperor's whereabouts.
"The emperor is fine, follow the elf king to the secret room for a while." The Arnoel official, who didn't know anything, looked happy, and pointed to the narrow door of the secret room and praised: "Fortunately, there is an elf king, otherwise we wouldn't know to let the emperor go to the secret room for a while." ”
The three elves all looked stunned, and their eyes all fell on the small black door of the secret room. Almost at the same time, they all guessed what the Elven King might do to the Human Emperor in the Chamber of Secrets.
Although the three elves had guessed the same thing, they reacted differently.
Serdan was the quickest to react. He didn't take the time to think about whether the emperor was okay or not, but first thought about the consequences of the sudden replacement of the royal power. If the Elven King ends the life of the Emperor due to a dispute, the most important thing is to prevent the innocent people from being affected by the change of power. Serdan, who had experienced the replacement of Linton's throne, immediately turned to the Gondor people outside the hall and shouted, "Is Merandil well?" ”
Elrond, on the other hand, raised his legs and walked towards the chamber. He didn't want the Emperor to be harmed, nor did he want Thranduil to be permanently charged with hurting the Emperor. But as soon as he lifted his leg, he was immediately grabbed by the female elf beside him. Vernor, who had stopped him from advancing, held on to the wise man's hand and looked at him with begging eyes.
"Leave some room for both you and Thranduil." Fnorr, whose eyes were red with urgency, bent his knees and pleaded.
Elrond knew she meant not wanting to go in on her own. Regardless of whether the human emperor is subdued or in the process of being subdued, he who has seen the violence process with his own eyes will be completely different from the elf king. Next, as a witness, he not only has to tell the entire righteous camp the entire process of the elf king's harm to the human emperor, but also needs to record all his crimes for his friends in his own handwriting, and watch him become independent by the elf race.
Constantly repeating the torment of the whole process of his friend's crime, the wise man must grit his teeth and persevere. However, that's not even more terrifying. What's even more terrifying is that how should he act when he walks into the secret room? is to turn against the elf king on the spot, and instantly destroy the friendship that has slowly accumulated over the years; Or ignore the brutal injuries suffered by the Human Emperor and side with the Elven King? No matter what one chooses, there is no way to change the suffering of the wise. What's more, if the situation is not as bad as imagined, the wise man does not think that he has the ability to stop the fall of the Elf King.
And also! If I do see what Thranduil has done, even if his actions are not irreparably serious, I should not care for the sake of peace between the two races. But after I saw everything with my own eyes, can I truly hide everything I see in my heart?
Elrond was sure that he didn't have the ability to hide the truth. At best, he can leave obvious clues for future generations to follow, just as he did when he writes about Thrandil in the history of the elves. However, this can only deal with strangers and newcomers. As long as a living spirit comes forward and asks him to tell all the truth, the wise man is sure that he has no way to hide it.
I should have some leeway for myself and Thranduil. No matter what has happened inside, there is no way for me to save the Human Emperor from the Elf King alone. But as long as I wasn't in that frame, I wouldn't have had to go head-to-head with Thranduil, and there was room for our friendship. Even if things get to the worst, it's a fact, and I can't get in it doesn't change anything. If you don't go in, you can still have a choice in the way you deal with it after the fact, according to the grand development of the two races.
King Serdan is right when he says that the past cannot be changed, but the future awaits our struggle. I should also learn from King Sedan, and focus on maintaining the future of the righteous camp, rather than dwelling on what has already happened.
"I'll go to King Sedan's side to help." The wise man turned decisively and walked in the other direction with heavy but hurried steps. As he left, the female elf, who was still bent on her knees, quickly stood up and walked to the door of the secret room.
She broke the brooch and used her long, sharp part to pick open the latch on the other side of the secret door. Although her hands trembled slightly uncontrollably during this process, fortunately it did not affect her speed. As the secret door was opened, Vernor snatched it in, and after entering, he did not forget to close the door behind him. When she walked the steps to the innermost point with scattered steps, the people below had already noticed her arrival. It's just that neither the Elf King nor the Human Emperor can know who is coming through the sound of footsteps. And the elf king, who can end the life of the human emperor with a slight force, is standing on the invisible hanging edge, of course, he never imagined that the intruder would be Funor, who was invited back to the woodland by himself.
