It wasn't until the end of the day that the controversy in the Blood Rose Xiaolou gradually subsided, and a large group of people came out.

Most of them were red-faced, still arguing fiercely, even though their king had announced his decision to end the meeting.

Walking in front, but starting to walk in a circle in the square in front of the small building, it was Zeng Chi and the Blood Elf King who walked together.

Both walked in silence, seemingly silent.

"Their Highness, this time it's for us...... There is a big problem. ”

After a long time, the Blood Elf King said to his prince with a wry smile.

……

"Father, I think they're very honest. While they can speak a little better, it seems that they don't want to deceive the Bloodoath allies who have been of great help to their fellow descendants, and that's fine. In fact, I have long suspected the reason and purpose of their coming, you know, at this time, the mountains and the sea are fighting. ”

Zeng Chi replied.

The Blood Elf King nodded.

"You're right. Their so-called Eighth Route Army can certainly conceal and deter the people of the Western Continent, so that they will obediently obey, not to make trouble, and not to affect the plans of His Highness. But it is impossible to hide it from us, and it is their honesty that makes me ...... In fact...... I am also more inclined to agree with His Highness's proposal. ”

He thought about it, but said with a sigh.

……

"Then why do you ...... has not said a word, but in the end only said that the controversy was put aside for the time being and wait and see? What else could have changed? Do you expect parliamentarians? I don't think they'll ever come to an end. ”

"Sometimes, I wonder if our racial parliamentarism is a mistake. They know that they quarreled a few days ago about whether or not to fully support our allies, and today they are the same. Are we going to miss another opportunity this time? ”

Zeng Chi suddenly muttered in confusion and dissatisfaction.

The Blood Elf King sighed again.

"But you also have to know, kid, that the concerns of opposition lawmakers are also very reasonable."

"His Highness's plan, after all, is unknown. And we, too, have our own plans, far away, but more secure - the sweet temptation is at hand, but we must consider the serious consequences if it is not successful or unfinished. ”

"Although I was more supportive, I couldn't make up my mind. Maybe it's because I'm old, I don't have the ambitions of a young man, and I'm always worried that I'm bringing my race to ruin. So, in fact, I'm hesitating too. ”

The Blood Elf King sighed again.

"Now...... We...... There is still one missing...... Let's make up our minds on the key points. ”

Finally, he said in a deep voice.

……

"The key point?"

Zeng Chi was suddenly puzzled.

"Shouldn't the decision of our royal family and the decision of the parliament still be a key point? We have enough power to influence the decisions of Parliament, and the people have full confidence in our royal family, as long as we express our opinions clearly......"

He asked, puzzled.

"Children, of course we can express our opinions and influence them. But if you were in my place, you wouldn't be so easy to think that way—every decision I make in such a big event would be extremely difficult, because it would determine the future of the race. So, can I express my opinion so lightly? And I decided that when my opinion was expressed, it would bring a better future to the people, rather than a desperate disaster. ”

"And the people believe in us, and it is impossible for the parliament not to support our unequivocal views, so why? That's their trust in us, and it's also a heavy responsibility that keeps us from acting rashly. ”

"Just like that Highness, before understanding the thoughts of his Chinese compatriots, did he dare to reveal his intentions? He didn't dare, because he had the same responsibility. And before his fleet arrived, even if he revealed his intentions, would the Elders and Lin Tonghui believe him? Still won't. Because, they also have the same responsibility. ”

"So, now, you understand their caution and mine?"

The Blood Elf King said lightly.

……

"That ......"

Zeng Chi suddenly hesitated.

"So I said, my prince. You need to learn more to be a good leader. At the very least, you have to be as steady and ...... as their Highness Sagacious. ”

The Blood Elf King smiled.

"You see, child, that sometimes, what the leaders can't decide, the people can decide on their own. We must also respect this decision, which is the foundation of the Blood Elves and the Blood Elf royal family to this day. ”

……

Sometimes, however, the minds of the people do not have the same strong purpose as politicians and leaders, and they sometimes appear to be ...... by their momentary likes and dislikes Blood-blooded and blind. ”

"Our people are not as anxious and backward as the leaders of the race. They are simpler, they tend not to think that far ahead, and they sometimes decide things just for the sake of likes and dislikes. And when this decision becomes their common voice, it will even be coerced from below, and then it will become a collective decision of the race—"

……

"Have you forgotten the origin of the Blood Oath Alliance? After our blood elves moved to Yueyao Island, we have not asked about the world, and we have been immersed in development for the future. Our alliance with our Blood-Oathed Ally was the result of a ridiculous accident. ”

"A man who couldn't bear the penance on the island and traveled to the island, but coincidentally ran to the paradise of criminals that our blood elves never disdained - the blood knight of the barren land, but unexpectedly found that the barren land has changed greatly, and even discovered the war between the Chinese and the barbarians on the front line of the cross."

Out of recognition of the Chinese people's will to resist and revenge and the same hatred for the barbarians, he joined the ranks of the Chinese people and participated in the war of the Chinese people against the barbarians. In the end, after killing the surname and becoming brothers with the Huaxia people in the trenches, he returned to Yueyao Island to invite more warriors to join him - as a result, the blood knight legion among the Huaxia people snowballed and grew bigger and bigger. Eventually, it alarmed the top brass on both sides, and made our two clans staunch allies in the blood oath. This is the Bloody Oath Pact. ”

The Blood Elf King said lightly, and Zeng Chi was suddenly a little thoughtful.

……

"Therefore, the key point of this matter is not in the royal family, nor in the parliament, but in the people's identification with them."

"If our people agree that they deserve it, then the Blood Elves never mind giving to their perceived friends. What's more, this kind of effort has the potential to lead to dire consequences, but it can also lead to unimaginable victories. As long as they agree with them, it is very likely that public opinion will sweep from the bottom up again. ”

"What's more, the series of rituals of their Highness are indeed very touching, and they also prove their strength and nobility. As you can see, the reaction of parliamentarians proves that it is very difficult for us to refuse this temptation. But at the same time, we do fear the consequences of those big gambles that don't work out, which we can't afford. ”

"Therefore, in the case of a stalemate, the opinion of the people has become crucial."

The Blood Elf King said meaningfully.

……

"But now how do we get the people to identify with them? You know, they are not our blood allies to us, but only their distant relatives, strangers from the otherworld. ”

Zeng Chi asked.

"Then it's up to their Highnesses. In fact, this was also implicitly revealed by me to their Highness in the previous meeting, and presumably he had already realized it, and was thinking of what to do about it. ”

The Blood Elf King's gaze suddenly revealed a strange color.

……

"He? Wouldn't it be to go to our Yao Island to do some kind of ceremony, you know, it is of course an incomparably powerful force, but for a large number of mid-to-high-level us, it is better to send a few stars to walk around it is more intimidating. Moreover, it is just a show of muscles, and it does not help much to win the approval of the people. ”

Zeng Chi shrugged his shoulders.

"This is my final test for him, and otherwise, I would not have agreed to entrust the forces of my clan to him for an adventure that is not a matter of life or death. You must know that although this may make our people's wishes come true, it may also completely change our national policy, which is more subtle but more stable, leading to the catastrophe that will follow more than ten years later. ”

The Blood Elf King nodded.

……

"But it's almost impossible, Kael'thas above, to make our people identify with an alien empire with their people? Think they're a friend who deserves our help? They've never seen each other! That's ridiculous. Since we prefer their proposals, we have to do something for them, right? ”

Zeng Chi said dissatisfiedly.

The Blood Elf King looked at his prince reproachfully.

"My child, though you are the first blood elf in the history of our race to be recognized by the O'Lords again, the people worship you fanatically, because they see in you the supreme glory of His Majesty Kael'thas."

"But if you don't think about it all, you're more like a mere soldier. Then, I would consider handing the throne directly to you and Xiao Man's children. You're better suited to be a Warlord than a leader. ”

……

"Didn't we invite them to visit Yueyao Island? That's what we do for them. ”

"We are looking for possibilities and pursuing possibilities in the impossible. Otherwise, do you think the barbarian gods are really so easy to deal with? That plan is really as beautiful as imagined, can it be easily and perfectly? There will inevitably be all kinds of unpredictable variables. What the future will be, even the ancestors of our previous generation, those who are different from the false gods of the barbarians, who can almost be called true gods, can not be predicted. Otherwise, there would not have been Ragnarok 10,000 years ago. ”

"So, let it all depend on the will of God. If His Highness has the ability to make the impossible possible again and again, the strange empire he represents will be recognized by our people. Then, combined with his genius and his previous miraculous performance, he also has the trust that allows me to put the fate of the whole clan on the line and gamble with him. ”

"Otherwise......"

The Blood Elf King didn't say any more, but it was all for itself. (To be continued.) )
