Chapter 424: Raw Faces
The Third Elder didn't expect that the Eighth Elder, who was usually inconspicuous and barely had much presence, would suddenly become so aggressive.
Seeing that the second elder was deflated and defeated in the verbal confrontation, he hurriedly stood up.
"Leave that aside from what you're saying, just when you're qualified to participate in the meeting. But in any case, this is an internal matter of the elves. Eighth Elder, you brought people from outside the clan here, what does this mean? ”
The Eighth Elder didn't come alone, and beside him, there were a few new faces who weren't elves.
It was Cardinal Rossi and others who were sent by the Holy See of Light to marry the elves.
The Eighth Elder peeked at Cardinal Rossi's face and saw that there was nothing unusual, so he relieved himself and straightened his waist.
"If it was just an elven internal affair, Lord Rossi really wouldn't be here. But what you're talking about today has a lot to do with the Holy See of Light. ”
This is a bit of a strong word, and even bullshit.
The content of other people's meetings is related to you, and you want to participate in them? According to this statement, there are no secrets in the world.
On the contrary, the more relevant you are talking about, the less you will be able to tell. We discuss how to deal with you, or discuss the negotiation strategy with you, the final bottom line, etc., can we tell you in advance?
If the content really has nothing to do with others, you want to tell people, and people don't rarely listen to you. What else do you need to keep secret?
The second elder took a breath and immediately sneered: "What we said, how can you know as an outsider!" ”
The Eighth Elder smiled and said, "Second Elder, are you confused, in your heart, only the Elf King and the three of you are the most powerful elders, and the others are outsiders?" I am an elf clansman, and I am also the eighth elder of the clan, how can I be considered an outsider. ”
The second elder pretended to be surprised.
"Hey, so you're also an elf? I'm old, my eyes are not good, and I see you wrong. But to be honest, if you exclude those physiognomy traits unique to elves, the Eight Elders, no matter how you look at it, are more like humans than like an elf. ”
"You ......"
June debt, pay it off quickly. Just now, the Eighth Elder was so angry that the Second Elder was speechless, and now the Second Elder's taunting and assassination also made him red-faced and extremely uncomfortable.
After coming in, Luo Xi, who had not spoken and quietly watched the performance of the Eight Elders, stepped forward at this time and said, "Respected Elf King, we didn't mean to offend. It's just that the people below heard that Princess Alice was not actually in the Elven Court, but was secretly arranged to go to other places. Cardinal Juan and his son Zico were anxious, and it happened that the Eighth Elder had something to do, and took the initiative to bring us to inquire with the Elf King in detail to understand the situation. If there is anything inappropriate, please bear with the Elf King. ”
The Zico he was talking about was one of the protagonists of this marriage, the son of the cardinal who wanted to marry Princess Alice.
Rosie said politely, but the expression on her face and tone of voice did not mean sorry at all. The attitude is arrogant, and it is completely a high-minded appearance.
The Elf King sighed helplessly, also took a step forward, and said, "Lord Rosie is too polite. As for the fact that the youngest daughter Alice was arranged to leave secretly, it was just a rumor, and there was absolutely no such thing. Now she is in her boudoir and is not going anywhere. ”
For the people of the Bright Sect, the Great Elder can rely on his old age, rely on the old and sell the old, and quarrel with them. The other two elders can also ignore them and express their displeasure.
However, as the representative of the elven race, the elven king must suppress his true thoughts and emotions, and show enough openness and friendliness towards the people from the Holy See of Light.
Rosie asked, "Since Princess Alice is still in the Elven Court, why haven't you seen her for a long time?" It's not just us outsiders, but also the Eight Elders and other elven clansmen, who haven't seen her for a long time. ”
The Elf King touched his nose and felt a little embarrassed.
"Maybe it happened by chance."
Rosie asked, "Then I don't know if I can invite Princess Alice out to see her, our young man hasn't seen the princess for a while, and he is very worried." ”
The Elven King and the two elders looked at Zico who was standing there like a javelin, his face was cold and conceited, and he really didn't see much concern.
"I'm really sorry, the little girl is a little unwell during this time, and she is about to rest in bed, so it is not suitable to meet guests, and I ask Lord Rossi to forgive me."
Rosie looked suspicious: "Sick? ”
"Yes." The Elf King said stiffly.
"Hahaha, that's a shame."
Rosie laughed, where was the slightest regret.
"We have priests in the Holy See of Light who are good at healing the wounded and healing, and we have brought a few of them this time. If the elf king doesn't dislike it, let them heal the princess. ”
The Elf King's heart jumped, but his face could still remain calm, and he shook his head slowly, and said, "Thank you, Lord Rossi, don't bother with this." Our elven healer has already prescribed medicine for Alice's disease, and her condition has improved greatly, and she should be cured in a short time. ”
Rosie's eyes were blazing, as if he wanted to see a flower on the face of the elf king.
"So much for the best. However, if the Elven King and Princess Alice need our help, please be kind. After all, in the future, there will be a lot of exchanges and cooperation between the elves and my Bright Sect, everyone is a friend, and it is only a matter of duty to help each other. ”
"Lord Rossi is right, we elves also attach great importance to our friendship with the Holy See of Light."
The Elf King hurriedly nodded yes.
The two of them talked word by word, and the atmosphere was not harmonious, and they were happy. But compared to the initial verbal swords, it has eased up a lot.
The second elder next to him didn't come up to interject, he and the irritable elder were actually the same way, but his strength and qualifications were not as strong as the latter, and his performance was a little more restrained.
However, he was obviously disgusted in his heart, but he had to pretend to be happy and happy to communicate with the people of the Bright Sect, and the second elder could not do it.
Therefore, seeing the appearance of the elf king talking and laughing, the second elder felt uncomfortable for him in his heart, and at the same time had to express his admiration.
The position of the Elf King is really not something that anyone can sit in.
Of course, not everyone wants to sit.
Just as he was bored, the second elder suddenly felt something.
Hurriedly looked up, only to see that in the team of the Bright Sect opposite, a young man had just retracted his gaze and turned his head to look away.
Who is this young man?
The second elder was puzzled in his heart, but he didn't think about it further.
The Bright Sect came over this time mainly from a few high-ranking people, and the large troops were stationed outside far away. However, there are always a few young disciples who follow him and do some errands.
These people didn't matter, and the elves didn't care too much. The second elder looked at it and felt that it was a raw face, and it was not worth the surprise.
