Three hundred and thirty-two, endure humiliation

Merandil was still carrying a patched package, and said apologetically to the Arnol officer: "You are here just in time. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoFrom tomorrow, I will slowly hand over the affairs of state to you. Lest the Emperor of the People's Republic of China succeed to the throne and be already busy, and take time to take over the affairs of Gondor. ”

Under the angry gaze of all the Gondor officials, the guilt-filled Arnoel officials lowered their heads, and did not even dare to raise their heads, let alone look at Merandiel, who led the family out of the palace. Although Arnold officials were eager to dissuade Merandiel, they did not dare to say so. What would the future Emperor think if he thought he was delaying him from regaining Gondor's power, or that he was setting his heart on Merandil, God knows what kind of punishment he would receive. Even Osborne, the supreme general of Arnol, who has a heavy army, is subdued by Valandil, let alone himself who is powerless?

The Arnold officials didn't dare to persuade them, but the Gondor officials knew that it was useless to persuade them.

Over the years, the officials of Gondor have tried to persuade them many times, and even the commoners and chamberlains have petitioned them to persuade the king to live better. But what's the use? The more persuasive, the more determined Merandil becomes. He said: The identity of the king should not belong to him, it is completely a gift from the future emperor. He can only choose to repay the emperor's gifts by fulfilling his responsibilities as a king, but not enjoying the slightest treatment of a king.

As a result, Melandil would enter the palace every morning in the proper costume of a commoner to fulfill his duties as a king. However, he refused to accept even the lunch that the king should enjoy, and had to go back to the filthy alleys where he lived to eat the lunch that the commoners deserved.

All the Gondor officials knew that the economy had not been very good in the past few years, and the supplies that Gondor had distributed to civilians had not been very good. And Merendil set himself the lowest-status commoner. As a king, he had to deal with state affairs all day long, and had no free time to earn more money to improve the conditions of the whole family. To put it mildly, all commoners were paid for their labor, while the king was not paid. The king refused to accept it, and the queen threw it out.

"Do you have to get used to the children and can't survive well?" The queen who was about to give birth gasped with a big belly: "Whoever dares to get used to the children anymore will harm me and Merandiel!"

After that, the officials not only did not dare to send anything, but also did not dare to ask them to move back to the palace. Fortunately, the commoners who lived around couldn't stand it, and sent something over from time to time, and the king and queen would not all refuse. For example, the eggs in Merandiel's hand at this time were begged by several civilians to accept them.

The Melandils did a good job of using repeated remarks and false deeds to convince all the Gondor people to think that the future human emperor would expel the king's entire family after he succeeded to the throne. With this in mind, the Gondor people's perception of the "human emperor" gradually evolved from respect to rejection. And the changes in the hearts of the Gondor people were naturally all expected by Merandiel. The current King and Queen of Gondor are very sure that the resentment that has been suppressed in their hearts has become as heavy as an overwhelmed camel, and the act of forcibly recovering Gondor's real power after the Emperor succeeds to the throne will be the last straw that crushes the camel!

"Even though everything was as we expected, I still ......" touched her newborn daughter very carefully, and Merandil said guiltily, "I feel sorry for the children." For this reason, the sons did not even enjoy the education that the royal family should have. My only daughter was also born in such a place. I, the father, owe them so much. ”

"In this case, doesn't I, a mother, owe them too much?" the wife smiled, looked at the daughter in her arms and said gently, "I don't think I will be ashamed of the children." One day, I will let the children get more compensation. You will too, right?"

"Yes!" his hands unconsciously clenched into his hands, and Melandiel, who looked at the north, said firmly: "The Emperor of Man will begin to regain the real power of Gondor, and my children will begin to receive more compensation. ”

The Elven King did not settle all the affairs of the woodland until the thirteenth day after Gondor welcomed the little princess, and led a team of the king's guards to gallop towards Gondor on horseback. The Elven King, who was dressed in civilian clothes and brought only twelve soldiers with him, took about a week to stand in front of the gate of Gondor Rice City.

On this day, the wind was very strong, and the blonde hair of the elf king was blowing in the wind. But his majesty was not at all affected by the messy hair. The angry Elf King didn't stay in front of the city gate for too long, and he didn't even have any courtesy with the officials who came to greet him, and directly shook off: "Take me to your king immediately." ”

"What? have joined hands against Sauron's allies, or have your king not come out?Is this the etiquette of human hospitality?" Without the slightest sense of humility that a person from another country should have, the Elven King sat directly in the center of the largest council in the Gondor Kingdom. With a sneer, he shouted dissatisfiedly to the human officials standing on either side, "Call ...... Your king is Merandiel, right? I have an account to settle with him. ”

Where did the king make the elf king unhappy? The two of them had never even met! Yes, there was a regular trade between the two countries, but the relevant officials handed over the goods, and the two kings had no contact at all.

The unknown human officials looked at each other for a while, and then sent a few quicker attendants to the civilian area to invite the king. Until Merandiel's arrival, every official was secretly speculating about the purpose of the Elven King's visit. However, compared to the Gondor officials who were worried that the Elven King would be unkind to their own king, the Arnoel officials clearly thought more.

As soon as Merandil heard that the Elven King had arrived outside the city gates, he immediately left the royal city temporarily under the pretext that his daughter was feeling unwell. The reason why he avoided meeting the Elven King was because he didn't know why the Elven King had come.

In short, Merandiel's mind was so confused that he could only find an excuse to avoid the opportunity to meet with the Elven King.

Didn't you say that we should communicate in secret, and we must not let any living beings find out that we were connected? Directly came to Gondor with great fanfare, which one was singing? The confused Merandil had no idea the purpose of the Elven King's trip, nor did he know what to say when he saw the Elven King, let alone whether to continue to pretend not to know him or directly talk to him in the same way. Melandiel, who had no idea at all, could only find an excuse to go home and discuss countermeasures with his wife.
