To be able to get close to the most admired king is a feeling that any living being will be ecstatic. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Fortunately, Edmund still retains a shred of sanity in the midst of his euphoria. Although the moment he saw the elven king appear in the treasury area, he happily pasted it, but he still did not forget to tell his attendants to move a chair worthy of the king. To his surprise, the Elven King, who had always been busy, nodded in satisfaction, leaning back in his chair for a long time.

"Don't dangle in front of me, and don't waste time getting wine. Take the squire and find all the meniscus gems and show me. Thranduil held out his hand with the large gem and gestured in the air. As long as it doesn't exceed this size, take it all out. ”

How many crescent gems are in the woodland treasury? According to Edmund's estimates, there were no less than three hundred. As an excellent treasurer, he quickly brought all the gems that met the requirements. Watching the Elven King carefully inspect each gem and put the selected gem aside, Edmund was a little confused, but he didn't dare to ask. He could only put aside all his affairs for the time being, and stood silently close to the edge of his chair.

"Is that all?" After selecting the gems, Thranduil carefully wiped her fingers that had touched the gems with a clean silk cloth, and also subconsciously glanced at a tray in the corner of the table.

There were gold coins and gems in the tray, and it was hard to tell if there were any meniscus-shaped gems pressed underneath the coins. Naturally, the Elven King was not willing to touch the gold coins that had been touched by an unknown number of living beings, so he tilted his head slightly and asked, "Is there a crescent-shaped gem in this tray that has been placed here?" ”

"Absolutely not." Edmund replied in the affirmative, and while motioning to the attendant to take the tray farther away so that the gold would not stain the Elven King's hands, he explained, "This is for the treatment fee that the waiting council will give to Ringu." In strict accordance with the lord's honorable status, it was prepared by my own hands. I've counted it several times. ”

"Treatment?" After a moment of doubt, the Elf King understood what the treatment fee was. He raised his hand with interest and asked the attendant to bring the tray closer. "It seems that the habit of inviting creatures from other countries to heal and give a certain fee afterwards seems to have been in place before? However, are these things given directly to the lord? ”

Let Elrond, who was nobler than himself and had no touch with money, take the gold coins and gems, and Thranduil wanted to laugh at the thought of this picture. However, he was sure that, judging by Elrond's aristocratic habits and noble character of selflessly helping others, he would definitely refrain from it with righteous words. If you don't do it, you will feel that taking money in return is a stain on his medical behavior.

"How can it be given directly to the lord? The lord's noble status certainly can't pollute his elegance with gold coins. Such trivial matters, especially money exchanges, have always been done by the officials of the two countries, and the lords will certainly not know about it. Subconsciously looking in the direction of the entrance to the palace, Edmund muttered, "Speaking of which, Lord Lindir of Ringu should also arrive." ”

The Ringu after the war should be as useless as the woodland after the war, right? Elrond is also known for being an elf who doesn't care about other creatures, let alone charging for treatment, and if he can't cure the patient, he will give back some supplies......

"The lord is the best healer in Middle-earth, and he increases the cost of healing tenfold. According to your usual practice, neither I nor the lord know about this, and you directly complete the docking with Lindir. ”

Wrong wrong. Ten times probably won't take long. After all, there are too many sick people in Ringu, and too many supplies need to be consumed every day. And Elrond's spirit of selfless dedication, I am afraid that I will push away all help. A dozen cavalrymen who followed him were still wearing the armor of the last battle period......

The Elven King got up slowly, and before leading the attendants to leave, he didn't forget to explain again. "Tell Lindil to find a time to avoid the lord and see me privately."

One night before Elrond's departure, Lindil walked into a small room next to the council hall of the woodland palace.

The space was not large, but there was a delicate corner of the room everywhere, and the elf king's hand holding the wine glass waved to the empty chair beside him. Does that mean to let him sit down?

Lindir couldn't believe it.

Although he didn't have much contact with the Elven King, Lindil decided that this King was very domineering and difficult to mess with through some of the lord's precautionary actions and what the Elven King had done. Not to mention the strength of the elf king on the battlefield, just when he was on the battlefield, as soon as he heard that there were creatures in the woodland kingdom, his lord would be so frightened that he put on his forehead and was fully prepared. No matter how careful he was, the Elven King still didn't know why, so he rushed to the Noldor tent and behaved unkindly to the lord, which also caused rumors that were difficult for the elves to speak......

The elven king, who holds himself a higher rank, is not even polite to his own lord, let alone to other living beings? Lindil had no choice but to make a standard salute, and carefully sat on the chair on the side according to the other party's wishes. He even regretted that he didn't let the lord know in advance that he had come to see the elf king, if the lord knew, if he made the elf king unhappy and punished him, how could the lord ask for mercy?

How could Thranduil not see Lindil's panic? However, the Elven King didn't care what other creatures thought of him, as if he didn't care at all. What's more, he also needs to give Lindil a great sense of grievance. Only when he felt wronged, Lindil would not tell Elrond and make his lord feel wronged as well. The wise man of Middle-earth is definitely not a false name, no matter how bad the performance is, the wise man will definitely be able to find out through the false surface that the real purpose of this matter is to help Ringu. With Elrond's noble nature of being willing to sacrifice himself for the common people, coupled with his innate aristocratic arrogance, he was certainly unwilling to accept the help of other living beings. Do you still feel that your self-esteem has taken a hit? After all, the territory is not rich, and it is not a glorious thing for a lord.

Then it can only be said to be a little worse, so that Lindil is wronged!

Thranduil looked disapproving, and said to Lindill, "When you leave the woodland, remember to take all the items that your lord has used here out of the woodland. ”

As a kind and holy elf, Lindil did not want to and did not dare to refuse this request of the elf king. But in fact, after meeting the lord, he realized that the carriage he brought this time was not enough. The nearly 100 plants to be transplanted to Ringu alone filled almost all the wagons, and there were some strange books and tools that I didn't know how to place.
