31. The controversy of Longxiao Palace
"Provantes, what do you think of this news? Hmph, Ufrik is already preparing to repair the plank road in the dark. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć Having read the letter from General Tulius to himself in its entirety, Barguv handed it to his butler at this time, and when he saw that he must have read it almost well, he asked.
Provantus looked away from the letter and said with some hesitation, "My lord, I think you need to be cautious in everything, especially when it comes to the Stormcloak...... My suggestion is to wait and see. ā
Such a passive opinion was obviously not supported by Barguff, and he glanced at Irelais slightly, and the dutiful captain of the dark elves began to sarcastically say, "Do you mean that we should wait for the moment of being hunted like prey targeted by hunters?" ā
As soon as Ireles' words ended, Barguf spoke: "I agree with Ireles. Perhaps the time to act is now. Asa was listening from the sidelines, and the heart rap double reed didn't have this, Provantus often sang white faces in this dragon trio on the surface, probably because he was forced by this pair, right?
When Provantus heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and said in a low voice, "You plan to march into Wind Helmet City?" ā
Barguv waved his hand very firmly to dismiss Provantus' speculation and said, "I'm not a fool, Provantus. I mean it's time for Ufric to take on my challenge like a man, or he has to reveal his intentions to the lords of Skyrim. ā
The steward shook his head very firmly and said, "He wouldn't do such a thing!" ā
"He's been quite blunt about Toyger."
Provantus scoffed at Ireles' rebuttal, "Toyger? He simply killed the boy from behind! ā
"That 'boy' was once the High King of Skyrim Province."
"I'm not the High King, but I'm not a little furry boy either." Feeling that he was almost at the end of the argument, Bargulf interrupted, "If Ufrik is going to challenge my dominance in the traditional way, tell him to let him go. ā
"May I inquire, Lord Balguf, the traditional way you've been talking about...... It doesn't mean going it alone with Ufrijk, right? Asa felt that the discussion between the three of them was about to forget about him, and hurriedly asked about the existence by the way. As for Serana and Diane, one of them thought they were watching a play, and the other was already full of question marks.
"Of course, just like when he challenged Toyger. I suspect he'd rather send his 'Stormcloak' to do this, though. Barguf seems to have a disdain for Uffric's actions, believing that he only has the guts to challenge the weak, even if the weak is in fact the former supreme king.
"Yes, he has proven his personal strength by killing the High King Toig. Now he wants to prove the strength of his army. Ireles continued to echo Barguf, and Asa felt a little sympathy for Provantus. With such a "confidante", it's no wonder that Barguf's wife has been dead for so long, and he doesn't want to find a stepmother for his bear children!
Provantus seemed to have given up, and said helplessly: "Then can you please consider General Tulius's request below?" I mean, if you're determined to offend Lord Uffric......"
"The one who violated others was Ulfrick." Ireles directly gave Ulfric a sex, and then changed his tone: "However, Provantus is right. Ufric made it clear that in his opinion, to refuse to obey him was to be in the company of the Empire. ā
"So what's the loss of having a few Imperial soldiers die on your behalf?" Provantes was also quick to follow, and Asa looked at the pair of fast-forming duo with a little curiosity, how did the wind change all of a sudden? The eldest lady watched it with relish, and felt that the court drama in front of her was much more exciting than that in her hometown.
"It sounds like a coward's behavior." It seems that he also finds that he has little choice in theory, and Barguf can only talk about heroism, but unfortunately, Irelais changed his course too suddenly, and his words immediately became the fire catharsis of the dark elf.
"Wasn't it cowardly that you accepted the [Platinum Agreement] in the first place?"
"Why did you bring this up again!? That and what is happening now are fundamentally different things! Do I have a chance to object to the terms of the agreement? Probably not. The lords received not a request, but an order! We are the ones who are forced to accept! The topic related to the [Platinum Protocol] should be an eternal sore spot in Barguf's heart, and he immediately said like a headache: "Besides, where else in the sky, besides Windhelm City, still stands like us with the statue of Talos?" I've done my best. ā
Provantus also accepted it when he saw it, and turned back to the original topic: "It's a big deal that we pay the Imperial Army to join them as mercenaries like mercenaries, and a few boxes of gold are not a big problem." When Asa said this, he couldn't help but feel a little envious, when he could talk like this in Wintercastle, then Wintercastle would complete the revival.
"Damn! It's not about money! ā
"It's time to decide!"
Ireles' words silenced Barguf, but he didn't have much time to think before he looked up at Assa, who had been turning into Akarin for a while, and said, "Wait a minute, Dragonborn. I want you to send me a message to our friend, the honorable Lord of Windhelm. With that, he turned around and walked to the second floor of the Longxiao Palace, and after a while, he walked down with an axe and said, "Send this axe to Ufrik-Storm Cloak." ā
Assaqiang resisted the urge to "hehe", but raised the corners of his mouth and said, "I said Lord Barguf, regardless of whether Ufrik will let me enter his palace or not, what do you mean by me sending him an axe?" What am I going to say to him? This axe is definitely not a prop to stab you, it's just an ornament? ā
Barguv patted his forehead and smiled, "I almost forgot that you were a mage of Wintercastle, and I am not very familiar with the etiquette of Nord warriors. Don't worry, you can just give him this axe, this is a rule among Nord men, he can understand. ā
"I think you should explain it to me briefly, otherwise I don't know ...... bottom in my heart."
"Well, in fact, it is very simple, this is the tradition of the Nords, before the war I gave him my weapon, and if he accepted it, he expressed his willingness to reconcile with me, and we were at peace with each other; If I refuse, it means that I need to use it to settle the grievances between the two of them. ā
"I see, anyway, I've gotten used to running errands lately, and it's not a big deal to go to Wind Helmet City again." said this, but Asa suddenly had a premonition in his heart at this time: maybe something unexpected would happen on this trip to Wind Helmet City...... (To be continued.) )
