Chapter 1498: True Purpose
"Why?" I was puzzled, why should I treat it differently?
The Fairy Empress said: "First of all, they are discussing your affairs endlessly, and secondly, as an elder, you can be caught and framed by someone, this is your negligence as an elder, and you should be punished, and finally, I just don't want to give you food." β
...... It would be nice for you to just say the last point, and you don't have to embellish it before.
But then again, you just seem to have said 'framed', which means that you actually think that I was framed, Grandma Empress?
The Elven Empress nodded slightly, and at the same time raised her index finger to her lips, and the meaning could not be more obvious: just know, don't say it.
I understood this, and I didn't say anything more, but honestly stepped back to the side, bowing my head and saying nothing.
The Elven Empress sat on the throne, the Moonlight Scepter in her hand gently slapping the stone bricks at her feet, the voice was crisp and crisp, but with an irresistible force, forcing me to look up at her.
When I looked up, I realized that the other elders had already turned their faces to the side, looking directly at the Fairy Empress, waiting for Her Majesty's divine decree with a pious expression.
"You are all people who have worked with Elder An Xiaoyi, even if you don't know his heart, but from his many words and deeds, you can know that although this child has an impatient temperament, he is not a person who harms others and does not benefit himself, and he will not do such a thing as ignoring his clansmen to death and leaving him behind."
As soon as the Fairy Empress said this, Mera and Lindsay, the two elders who had been sneering at me, had to hang their noble heads in deep convincing.
The Fairy Empress raised her head slightly, looked directly at me, and said, "But Xiao Yi, although I know that you will not do anything that disregards human life, but sometimes, being too rational is not a good thing. β
When I heard this, I couldn't help but be stunned.
Too rational?
Is she blaming me for not coming to my rescue?
But how did the Empress know about this?
Don't...... In my organization's team of ghost-faced spiders, there are also eyeliners that she has planted?
This...... Is it possible?
I didn't see a goblin!
Just when I was surprised, the Fairy Empress continued: "Also, Xiao Yi, the position of elder is not child's play, it is not that you can step down if you say that you can step down, elder, is synonymous with the supreme executor of my Moonlight City, is the representative of power second only to the emperor, and is a symbol of the glory of our clan, unless those sinners who commit mortal grave crimes, no one can deprive the elder of the title at will, and no one can take off the crown of the elder without authorization as he likes, my words, do you understand?" β
Her tone was stern and unquestionable.
I lowered my head and confessed, "Yes, Grandma Empress, I know that I am wrong. β
"Moonlight City Daily was originally a national industry that mainly conveyed the highest directives, disseminated humanistic care, and was supplemented by entertaining the public, but now it seems that this industry, which originally belonged only to the people of the country, has invisibly become a channel for persecuting elders and creating chaotic public opinion, which is not a shame."
After saying the last word, the fairy queen smiled, and the smile was very cold and terrifying.
I heard this kind of laugh once, that is, on the night I was recruited to put down the rebellion, when I asked her what to do with the traitors, she laughed like this.
So, I remember it vividly, and I know what the laugh meantβshe's going to start killing.
The meeting ended an hour later, during which the elders expressed their views and expressed all the ideas they could think of to 'stabilize the social order.'
All sorts of seemingly brilliant ideas came one after another, and I didn't know what to do.
The Elf Empress and the Elf Empress sat on the throne, and the two bigwigs watched quietly like this, listening quietly, as if the judges were invited to score in a variety show, and the elders were artists waiting to be screened.
After the last elder finished saying the last word, the Fairy Empress nodded and praised the elders for their 'wonderful performance', while saying that the matter was still up for discussion, and that the meeting would not be in a hurry and adjourned.
Then the meeting was dismissed.
After the meeting ended, the elders left the conference room one after another, and soon, only the Fairy Empress, the Elven Empress, and I were left in the huge conference room.
The Elf Empress waved at me, and I took my chair and walked up to the high platform, sitting across from the two Empresses.
The Fairy Empress said: "This time, I roughly know what is going on, although you want to help your fiancΓ©e complete the transformation task as soon as possible, but your approach is not thoughtful, why do you want to unite with outsiders to act together, have you examined their character, are you familiar with their hearts, and do you know everything about them?" β
I shook my head.
"You don't even have these preparations, you trust them out of thin air, team up with them to farm monsters, what if they are corpse thieves, what if they have a plot against your team, you say, are you too reckless and irresponsible?"
I nodded, "Yes." β
"I'll teach you a lesson now, it's for your own good, you have to listen, and you won't have to make such a mistake again in the future!"
The Fairy Empress spoke harshly, and I was embarrassed when she said it.
After a while, she sighed and continued: "You have to grow up, Xiao Yi, although I have to help you bear it now, I am not the god of creation after all, and it is impossible to protect you for the rest of your life...... Even if I could live that long, if you didn't repent and made similar mistakes in other towns, how could I, the ruler of Moonlight, help you? β
"And," she said with a little worry, "if you are always so careless, how can you guarantee the happiness of my family Remy?" β
β...... It was "I bowed my head deeply to express my recognition and remorse for my mistakes."
"Anasta" the fairy queen said, "What do you think of the rise of public opinion this time?" β
"I think that the rise of public opinion this time is mainly due to the deliberate act of someone in secret, wanting to use this to arouse public anger and cause turmoil, and then show up with a righteous face, gather the strength of the masses, and finally challenge our royal forces."
The Elven Empress said as she analyzed, meticulously analyzing every possible situation, and at the same time assuming the possible consequences of such a situation.
At the end of the words, the Elven Empress said, "So I think this is a challenge to the royal family, especially you and me. β
"Your way of thinking has matured a lot," the Fairy Empress smiled, then squinted at me and said, "It's a hundred times stronger than this stunned boy." β
The Elven Empress bowed her head and said, "You have won the prize." β
"Xiao Yi" the fairy queen turned to me and said, "Hear what Anasta said, you are probably just a victim of this public opinion, and the real target they want to target is not you, but me and her above you. β
Happy New Year's Day to all!
New year, new atmosphere, new year, new harvest!
