Chapter 679: Request (I)
!Force. Danfa even resisted the attack of the elves. ※
This kind of thing, will it be true?
When this kind of news continues to come from the front line of the Derbit Kingdom to the surrounding countries, many people do not believe it.
However, one news after another has forced many people to believe this.
One day, an envoy from the kingdom of Derbit came from afar. Asking to meet the king of his country, the matter of the elves was solemnly mentioned in the royal capital.
The nobles were all discussing the purpose of the envoy of the Kingdom of Derbit.
Actually, this is a clear thing.
The other party is coming over at this sensitive time. What other purpose could there be than to ask for assistance?
"Your Majesty, according to custom, an envoy from another country. For no particular reason, it is impossible to avoid the palace, the court nobleman, Count Inca, persuading the king.
The king, who was sitting in Wang Zhenli, his face was covered with wrinkles and age spots, and when he heard this, he smiled bitterly.
King, he has been getting better lately. But. In the end has been physically weak, this weakness. I can't even make up for it with magic, and now when it comes to wars, conspiracies, and the like, I get bored.
Three days earlier, the envoy of the Kingdom of Derbit had entered the city. A letter of visit was sent to the king, but the king repeatedly ignored it on the grounds that he was ill. Such a move was somewhat out of place, and the Earl of Ingka would enter the palace to persuade His Majesty to meet the envoy who had come from afar.
"Well, actually, it's not that Lian doesn't really want to go to them, it's just that he was not in good health two days ago, and you know it, alas. Since you said so, let's meet them. "The king sat on the dragon's rock. Listen to the consolation of his confidant minister. He sighed helplessly and said.
"Your Majesty has worked hard". See the county king Songkou. Count Inka breathed a sigh of relief and said with emotion. When, the wise king, has become so old?
Perhaps it was because of the catastrophe that the king collapsed all at once.
With a sigh of emotion, he retreated.
Looking at his back as he withdrew, the king rubbed his forehead, quite a headache, the envoy's request, he actually already knew, but there were a lot of things involved. As the king of a country, it is impossible for the king not to want to go further.
Exhaled. The king got up from the bed and beckoned the guards outside to come in: "Inform the envoys of the Kingdom of Derbit that I will receive them tomorrow morning at ten o'clock in the palace hall."
"Yes, Your Majesty will be ordered to go down.
Early the next morning, the emissary of the kingdom of Derbit. He left early and rushed to the palace. Waiting for the arrival of the king.
They have a heavy task on them, so naturally they have great expectations for this visit.
This time, the kingdom of Derbit sent here, there were two people, two men, one fat and one thin. They are all middle-aged people, and the clothes they wear are very formal, but they look anxious and can see it. They were in a hurry.
However, because they came too early, no one from the main hall had come over, and they were temporarily arranged to rest in the side hall.
When it was punctual time, only the drums could be heard, and the guard of honour for the king's envoys from other countries began to play.
Two envoys, led by the attendants, from the corridor. Walk towards the main hall.
They were neatly dressed and looked serious, and when they came to the entrance of the main hall, a waiter came out of it and chanted in a loud voice: "The king has a decree, and the envoy of the kingdom of Derbit is here."
The two envoys suppressed their excitement. Walk into the main hall.
When I got inside, I saw that the main hall was resplendent with gold. Sure enough, it has the majesty of a country.
On the upper seat of the palace, there was an old man wearing a golden crown, saying that it was an old man, but in fact. The king was not yet sixty years old, but he had just recovered from a serious illness. He looks haggard.
Next to the king, there stood several ministers, the closest to the king, but the one standing. Youngster.
The two envoys glanced at each other, slightly stunned. How could there be such a young aristocrat?
However, soon, they thought of a possibility, looked at each other, and were relieved.
The man standing beside the king must be the prince of this country.
They really guessed correctly, the one standing next to the king was indeed the eldest prince Hailancha.
He had been confined to his palace a few days before, and had only been released a few days earlier, and the king, seeing that he was introspective, had this time met with a foreign envoy from afar, and agreed to his request to participate.
Looking at the two foreign envoys standing below, there was a flash of light in Hailancha's eyes.
At this time, the foreign envoy had already walked to the center of the temple, and did not squint. He saluted the king who was seated above, handed over the credentials, and when all the ceremonies were completed, he said directly: "Charry, Auman, the envoy of the kingdom of Derbit, is on the orders of His Majesty the King. I would like to ask for your assistance in the distress of our country. ”
There was a light cough on the throne, and the king said, "I have heard about the affairs of your country, and your envoy has traveled a long distance and worked hard from afar, so let's get even." ”
He didn't directly answer the envoy's request, and asked the waiters on both sides to give the four long-term stunned seats, with a posture of long-term consideration.
Special envoy Charlie and Auman naturally expected such a scene, and they were not surprised, but their faces became more and more gray, and they thanked the king first. Obediently sit in your seat.
"Your Majesty, our country and your country are not far apart. They belong to the same area, which can be described as interdependent. A month ago, our coastal defense, suffered an attack by the elves, heavy casualties, the elves are not only unscrupulous at sea, but also have great ambitions, want to occupy the life of human beings, my king is deeply worried, for fear of the recurrence of the disaster, the overall situation is disturbed, specially ordered in the next two envoys to your country, looking forward to your country can be rescued. ”
Hearing the envoy say this, the king could not really continue to perfunctory, he sighed softly, and said, "I have heard about your country being attacked by the elves recently, and I deeply regret it. At the same time, I was angry. However, the joint body has always been unsafe. A few days ago, I also suffered a disease, and now the net has just healed, and the two envoys don't know, although there are many people in our country, but in the battle of the demon disaster, the loss is quite large. The weakness of China's coastal defense is well known to all countries. As for the matter of sending troops to assist your country's coastal defense, I am afraid that "I am powerless!"
The king's words were like a basin of cold water. It was poured on the heads of the two envoys in an instant.
Their faces suddenly turned completely gray.
"Father" is at this time. Next to the king, His Royal Highness the prince spoke.
The two envoys looked up, and for some reason, they suddenly felt that perhaps the prince's imminent exit would bring a different outcome to their mission.
The king frowned, as if he was not very happy that the eldest son spoke at this time, but after all, it was in front of outsiders, and it was not easy to blame or be surprised, so he had to say lightly: "Hailancha, what do you want to say?"
"Father, I listened to the words of these two envoys, and I felt very indignant. Hailancha said suddenly.
"Oh?" said Hylanza, and the king could not stop him from speaking.
The two foreign envoys were now sitting below, and although he already had a bad premonition, he could only continue to let this son continue.
Hailancha politely nodded to the two foreign envoys sitting below, and continued: "Although the countries are different, we all have one thing in common, that is, we are all human races! If we are not of my race, our hearts will be different, and on the contrary, it can also be said that the elf race has hated each other with human beings for thousands of years, and this is no secret, now. If they dare to attack the Kingdom of Debit, who can say for sure, in the future, they will not attack our country?"
As soon as this passage came out, the various ministers sitting next to him. They all nodded, and even the king felt that there was some truth.
Hailancha showed a sneer and continued: "In order to effectively nip this possibility in the bud and help friendly countries get rid of this difficulty, Father, I boldly recommend one person. Although our navy is lacking, there is one person who can really help. ”
By this time, the king had come to his senses from the little appreciation he had just given birth to.
At this time, if he no longer understands what this eldest son is calculating, then he does not need to be a king.
"Tell me about your candidate. "But at this point. The king could only hold back his anger, suppressed his voice, and spoke, but his eyes faded.
"I recommend my younger brother, His Highness Husenya to go on the expedition in person. He has a powerful navy at his disposal, and his combat effectiveness is amazing, and he has defeated pirates in the past, and if his second brother's fleet participates in the battle, it will definitely inflict heavy damage on the elves. He didn't have a business trip at this time, and there should be no reason why he couldn't go, let alone help humans rebel against the elves. As the prince of the human kingdom, he should be willing to go. "It was not that I did not see the king's eyes. But Hailan turned a blind eye, and Lang Lang's voice echoed in the main hall.
This time, even the ministers who had been pretending to be statues looked at them in surprise, but because it involved the internal struggle of the royal family, they only glanced at it, and then they each lowered their heads again, and no one said a word.
The two envoys had lost their thoughts. But as soon as you listen to the words of this prince, your country has a navy available, especially since the prince himself raised this point. Hurriedly looked up with extremely expectant eyes, looked at the king who was already extremely depressed, and only waited for his words.
At this time, the king was indeed extremely depressed.
However, let the second son, Xiu Xenya, go on an adventure. He was still a little reluctant, first glared at his eldest son, and then, the king pondered for a moment, and said: "I don't know much about Xiu Senya's naval situation, so let's do it, on the side of Blue Earth Island, it seems that there is a magic array for communication, so contact him first." Let's make up our minds!"
It is said that the book is full of umbrellas
