Chapter 1249: A dilemma
Feeling the energetic appearance and loud voices of each of the assist team members, I couldn't imagine that a second ago, they were still wilting.
Clearing my throat, I said, "When I knocked on the door just now, the interrogation voice inside was very unenergetic, and I thought something was wrong, but now after seeing your spirits, I finally put my mind at ease, I must have been too careful." ”
"No, Lord An Xiaoyi!" The team leader stood up, bowed to me, and said apologetically, "You're right, we were really in a state of lack of energy just now. ”
"Oh?" I raised an eyebrow and said, "Why is that?" ”
"We're goblins, goblins are born scientists, and if we don't study one day, we feel empty and we're languishing."
Looking at the goblin leader's sad face, I was very speechless, no wonder when I just passed by the window, I saw them fiddling with gadgets, it turned out to stimulate their desire for research, but judging from their sluggish expressions, it is estimated that everything existing in the tree house has been thoroughly studied by them.
After pondering for a moment, I raised my head and said, "I can understand everyone's feelings, in fact, I came here for this purpose. ”
The goblins' expressions instantly became hot, and the team leader said, "Lord An Xiaoyi, what do you mean ......?"
"As an elder of the elven clan, I now want to convey one thing to you on behalf of the elven empress," I said lightly: "The elven empress hopes that you can help develop the scientific and technological power of the elven clan. ”
After speaking, I leaned against the doorway, quietly watching the goblins, hoping to see their cheering expressions, but the truth was quite the opposite of what I thought.
The goblins didn't cheer, they didn't cheer, they all frowned, their faces full of confusion.
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"With all due respect, Lord An Xiaoyi," the goblin leader said, "We would rather hear that you want us to do it, rather than the Elven Empress who wants us to do it." ”
When I heard this, I didn't know what words to use to express my feelings at the moment.
Goblins, what a group of people who are both brilliant and loyal!
This is Moonlight City, the place where the Elven Empress and the Elf Empress rule together, and the territory of their two clans.
Yet I can't refute their loyalty, because it's pure, almost foolish!
To be honest, this loyalty really touched me, and at the same time, it pushed me into a difficult situation.
Actually, deep down, I don't want the goblins to assist the team in helping Moonlight City develop its technological power, not because I have any thoughts about Moonlight City, but because I don't want my allies who have unstable relationships to become stronger than my own.
But at the same time, I also hope that the goblin assistance team can participate in the technological construction of Moonlight City, the purpose of this idea is very simple, I don't want to see the members of the assistance team have even the slightest bit of loss and malaise.
In an exaggerated way, it is as if a benevolent monarch does not want to see his subjects look sad and pained.
After a moment's struggle, I asked, "What would you do if I said I didn't want you to help build Moonlight City?" ”
"We will try our best to restrain our desires and try not to cause you the slightest trouble!" The leader said firmly, as did the other goblins.
Huh, I breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I allow you to help Moonlight City develop technology, but in terms of specific details, you must keep it secret, and you must not let the elves learn it all." ”
"What about the goblins?" The team leader asked.
"Fairy ......," I thought for a moment and said, "I will try my best not to involve the goblins in any technological development matters first, and when the time is right, I will arrange for you to meet with the goblins who worked together to learn and discuss scientific and technological achievements together." ”
"Yes" the leader bowed: "Do your will." ”
Leaving the tree house, I walked quickly to the palace, and since I had promised not to let the goblins participate in the construction of science and technology for the time being, I must put this promise into practice.
After entering the palace, I took the lead in going to the fairy queen's room and explained to her the idea of not allowing the fairy to participate in the construction of science and technology for the time being, and the fairy queen agreed to my idea without the slightest hesitation, and promised to help me convince the elf queen.
Seeing that things were going very well, I was also quite relaxed and happy, out of the fairy queen's room, I quickly ran to the elf queen's room, at this time, the elf queen was reviewing the documents, seeing me come in, she put down the pen and paper, stood up, slowly came to me, and smiled: "Look at your relaxed and happy appearance, the goblins must have agreed to my request." ”
"Yes," I said, "things are going well, and the goblins are ready to be dispatched." ”
"Thank you for your hard work, Elder An Xiaoyi," the Elven Empress smiled happily.
"It's not hard," I said, "After all, as an elder of the Moonlight City, it is also appropriate to make some contributions to Moonlight City. ”
The Empress smiled and shook her head, paced back to her seat, sat down slowly, and said, "Sit down and talk." ”
I nodded, walked quickly to the opposite position of the Elven Empress, and sat down, however, as soon as I sat down, I suddenly thought that my sitting posture seemed to be a little rude, sitting opposite, but the Elven Empress!
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but raise my head and stand upright, posing as if I was sitting upright.
The Elven Empress sneered and said, "Don't do anything you're not used to, just sit down at will." ”
"Oh" I answered, my body went limp, and a Ge You paralyzed.
Three black lines hung down the empress's forehead, and she said helplessly: "You're too casual, aren't you......"
So I sat back upright.
Elven Empress: ......
"Your Majesty," I said, "is there anything you want to tell me?" ”
The empress smiled slightly: "If I just ask you to sit with me for a while, will you be disgusted?" ”
"Of course not," I hurriedly replied, "you are the Empress, and you are a graceful beauty, and sitting with you is one of the best things in the world." ”
"Is it really that good?" The Elven Empress listened and said.
I nodded again and again, with a serious expression.
"Alright, don't listen to your nonsense there, let's get down to business" The Elven Empress said, "Since the goblins have agreed to help build my Moonlight City, let's talk about it." ”
"What's there to say about that?" I was puzzled.
"Naturally," the empress said: "After all, the goblin clan has returned, and some things are no longer what my clan says, do you think how many people will the goblin clan send to participate in this scientific and technological construction?" ”
