Chapter 65: Peleus's Anger
Telamon and Peleus had lived in Millmidon for about five years before joining the Argonauts, and by that time Macaon was already a well-known physician.
Macaon wasn't in Thessalia when they went on their adventure, otherwise the Argo wouldn't have let him go.
After a few pleasantries, Telamon was finally able to sit down to eat.
After a while, Peleus saw that he had almost eaten, and asked, "Telamon, didn't you say that you have something important to discuss with me?"
"Don't hurry, wait until I'm done eating. Telamon snorted, as if she didn't want to say it in front of so many people.
The crowd began drinking again and chatting about all kinds of strange things.
It is said that the forests west of Thessalia were inhabited by ancient harpies, that on the east side of the Aegean Sea the Asians had built many cities, that many of the islands were inhabited by terrible dragons from the port of Salamis, and that even in the far south the sea around Crete was said to be purple.
After a full meal, Markaon and the Menotios family took their leave, after all, it was getting late.
As for Telamon's escort, Peleus had already made arrangements for Ottometon.
Only the Peleus family and the Thelamon father and son were left in the huge living room, and they suddenly seemed a little deserted.
"Okay, now there are no outsiders, just say anything. Peleus cleaned up the table and sat down again.
"Big brother, where will Ajax and I sleep tonight?" said Tramon, still looking left and right, and deliberately looking around to observe the house.
"On the top floor, it's been ready for a long time. Peleus said helplessly. He probably understood that it was Thetis who was sitting here and made Telamon feel a little uncomfortable.
Peleus glanced at Thetis, who immediately stood up in a sense of understanding.
"It's late, I'll go to bed first, and you can talk slowly. With that, Thetis walked upstairs, and Peleus could clearly feel that Telamon was relieved almost immediately.
"You don't need to be afraid of her, Thetis won't do anything to you. Peleus said helplessly. None of his friends who had ever seen Thetis had been able to calm down, not even his brother now.
I heard my uncle say that my father was afraid of that beautiful aunt, and I was a little confused when I was at Aston, and my beautiful aunt was so gentle, why was my father afraid of her?
Telamon covered her face with her left hand and waved her right hand at Peleus.
This action immediately evoked a long-term memory in Peleus's heart, and as soon as Peleus talked about Telamon's troubles, Telamon would make this gesture. Meaning: It's embarrassing, don't say it.
"What the hell is going on, can you say it now?"
There were only two large, two small and four men left in the hall, and Telamon was no longer shy about it, and said, "Big brother, do you remember our adventure on the Argo?"
"Of course, how do you ask me such a question?"
"Think about how happy we were at that time, a group of people working together to fight against danger, and everyone came up with advice when they encountered problems......"
"Stop, what the hell are you trying to say?"
Peleus was really helpless, as far as he knew, Telamon was not such an emotional person.
"Hehe...... "Telamon smiled awkwardly, "Big brother, do you remember Iason?"
Hearing Telamon mention this name, Peleus's eyes suddenly flashed with displeasure.
How could he not remember that the initiator of the adventure of the Argo was also the captain of the fifty heroes on board. At that time, they had come together to help Iason find the Golden Fleece.
But Peleus remained silent on the surface, did not reveal a trace of emotion, and said lightly: "Of course I remember." ”
"Just remember. Telamon was overjoyed, "Big brother, I would like to invite you to Iason's wedding. ”
"Wedding? Didn't he and Medea get married a long time ago?"
Telamon was suddenly a little embarrassed and said, "It's not Medea, it's a new ......."
"What kind of wedding do you have when you marry a little wife?"
"No...... It's not a little wife, it's a new wife. ”
"Heh......" Peleus didn't know what to say, Iazon was a person, he could see it clearly.
"That's what you're talking about?!"
"Right...... yes......"
Listening to Peleus's tone, Telamon suddenly panicked.
Peleus glanced at Telamon and, instead of continuing the topic, stood up.
"It's too late today, go up early and go to bed, Salamis Island is quite far away, wake up early tomorrow. ”
Listen to Peleus, this is ready to send off guests.
"Hey, big brother......" Telamon was suddenly anxious, but Pelius didn't want to talk to him at all now, so he went upstairs.
Wasn't it okay just now? Why did you suddenly turn your face when you said it?
Achilles couldn't understand why Peleus was so angry when he heard the name Iason, and he didn't even want to see his brother again.
"Uncle Thelamon, the guest room is upstairs, and I'll take you and Brother Ajax there. ”
Since Peleus was not there, Achilles and the father and son of Telamon did not seem to have anything to talk about, so they had to go to sleep.
"Thank you, Achilles. Telamon thanked Achilles with great spirits, and it was obvious that he was much more depressed.
......
Peleus went into the bedroom, and Thetis lay on the bed and still hadn't fallen asleep.
Seeing Peleus come in, Thetis immediately noticed something was wrong.
"Peleus, what happened, aren't you upset?" Thetis was a little strange, wasn't she okay just now?
"It's okay, honey, go to bed early. Peleus blew out the oil lamp in his bedroom and lay down.
"What did he say to you to make you so unhappy?" Thetis immediately guessed that it must have been something that Telamon had said that made Peleus unhappy.
"He asked me to go to Iason's wedding. ”
"Isn't that nice, why aren't you happy?" said Thetis a little strangely.
She didn't know about the festival between Peleus and Iason, and Peleus never told her.
Thetis only knew that Iason was the captain of the Argo adventure ship, and she had always thought that the two men were on good terms.
"But I don't want to go. ”
Yetis was suddenly interested, she sat up and stretched out her hand and snapped her fingers, and the oil lamp hanging on the bedroom wall instantly lit up.
"Tell me what's going on?"
Pelius got up helplessly, "What is there to say about this person Iason?"
"But I want to hear it!"
"Okay, okay, I'm scared of you. ”
Peleus leaned his back against the wall at the head of the bed and gathered his thoughts.
"Iason's grandfather was named Cretheus, and he was rumored to be the illegitimate son of Poseidon, the god of the sea. After speaking, Peleus subconsciously glanced out of the dark window, afraid that a wave would hit in an instant.
"It's okay, it's not near the sea, Poseidon can't hear it. Thetis said with a smile.
Since Thetis said so, Peleus was not afraid.
"Cretheus founded a state in the region of Thesalia, called Iorcas. By the way, you know where Thesalia is, right?"
"I know. Thetis nodded.
Tesalia was just east of Thesalia, separated by an Olympus, and she knew that.
"Cretheus had two sons, one named Esson, the father of Iason. The other was named Polias, who was older than Esson, and was the stepson of Chrytheus. ”
"After his death, Crytheus passed the kingdom to Esson, but Esson's health was not good and he died young. After his death, his kingdom was overrun by Polyas, and when Iason was still a child, he was fostered by the wise elder of the Centaur tribe, Charon. ”
Thetis listened silently, not disturbing Peleus.
When Iason grew up and was determined to reclaim his kingdom, he returned to the royal palace of Iorcas and asked Polyas to return the throne to him. ”
Polyas pretended to agree, but he asked Iason to fetch the legendary treasure of the Golden Fleece, as a proof that Iason's prowess was worthy of the king's throne. ”
At that time, Iason did not know what to do, but he really wanted to find the Golden Fleece. Peleus smiled suddenly, "You should know the rest of the matter until the part where you get the Golden Fleece." ”
"Hmm. Thetis nodded, the story of the adventure had already spread throughout the land of Achaia, and Peleus really did not need to say it again.
"Then I'll tell you about the unknown things of Iason. Peleus's tone suddenly took on a hint of coldness.
With the help of Medea, the princess of Colcas, Iazon did two things that King Aetes of Colcasts had commanded, and the king had promised to give him the Golden Fleece. But on the night of the Golden Fleece, he took Medea directly back to the ship and demanded that we return immediately. ”
Pereston paused, "Actually, he did the right thing, stealing the Golden Fleece and kidnapping Medea, no matter who else these things are replaced, they will be empty-hearted." But then he did the one thing that I felt most disgusted about!"
Speaking of this, Peleus almost gritted his teeth, and Thetis quickly patted his shoulder to comfort him.
Peleus calmed down and spoke: "When King Colchas found out that the Golden Fleece and his daughter were missing, he immediately sent Medea's brother Apusiltos to intercept the Argo with a fleet. ”
"At that time, at sea, seeing that there was no escape, in order to survive, Iasong actually threatened Medea to kill his own brother on the condition of marriage!"
Listening to what Peleus said, Thetis's brows furrowed unconsciously, which was simply too cruel.
Medea succumbed to Iason's threats, and pretended to repent, and tricked Apsiltos into the Argo, where she cut him to pieces and threw him into the sea of corpses in order to stop her pursuers. ”
"And what chilled me the most was that most of the people on the ship thought that Iason had done the right thing, even Eramon!"
Peleus's voice revealed infinite anger, "Since then I swear that I will never associate with those people again!"
