Chapter 197: Ventilation
Iroh immediately looked sideways, and the inquiry in his gaze nearly stabbed Leah through like a knife.
Leah clenched her fists uneasily and looked at Eloh like a bunny.
Eloh looked at Leah for a few seconds, her face calming down, "Let's go inside and talk." ”
So the figures of the two disappeared into the firelight together.
When they reappeared, they returned to the dormitory.
Iroh sat on the throne with one hand on her chin and looked at Leah standing below.
"This is my palace, you don't have to talk in a slurred way."
In Leah's perception, it was just the two of them in the room.
Although Leah has no way of knowing if there is anyone watching in the shadows, Leah believes that the Black Flame Emperor will be responsible for the secrecy here.
If the other party still chooses to convey the information she told to the rest of the court in this situation, then Leah can only admit it.
So Leah took a deep breath and told her all she knew.
"His Excellency Stuart is in the deepest part of the courtroom. You know where that place is, but I beg your pardon, I can't say. ”
Iroh wasn't offended by this, and Leah had almost exposed the answer to him.
"Lost in the Corridor......" Leah couldn't pinpoint the message, but he could say it directly.
Iroh had already thought that Stuart was trapped in the Lost Corridor.
An indescribable anger burned from the bottom of my heart. But this fourth-order wizard who was extremely good at controlling the black flame was also good at controlling his anger.
Although he is taller, he also knows what to do and when.
So the anger only turned around Eloh's chest in the end, and then returned to the depths of consciousness that no one knew.
It's just that it hasn't been extinguished, and just a handful of firewood can be rekindled.
Iroh didn't change his movements, and asked Leah directly, "What did you tell me about this?" ”
Leah knew she had succeeded, "so that when the Kuroshio Tide comes in three years, the tribunal will be able to focus the most on fending off the Kuroshio." ”
"So selfless? But if you tell me the news of Stuart, aren't you afraid that I will break with Flim, and the tribunal will fall apart, and finally I will not be able to organize an effective operation against the Kuroshio? ”
Leah tilted her head, "I know you won't, you value the Black Flame Empire and your people more than anyone else. ”
Iroh's palm against his chin moved to his eyebrow bone, and a cold look struck, "So you took the initiative to pick out this matter, just to persuade me to take care of the overall situation and put up with Flem this time?" ”
Leah's limbs trembled slightly, as if she had been stripped naked and thrown into the icy waters.
Her teeth chattered, and even her voice was a little incoherent, "No, I can't bear it." If you endure it once, there will be a next time. He had come to regard the tribunal as a private property, even more so than Neflett. ”
As she spoke, the chill subsided, finally disappearing, and Leah's voice stopped shaking.
Iroh leaned back slightly, "Say, what do you want to do?" ”
He was not provoked by Leah's words, and in Ello's opinion, whether it was his compromise with Flim, or the argument with Flim to cause an earthquake, it was ultimately for Neflett's continent to persevere in the erosion of the Kuroshio.
If Leah had proposed to him to break with Flim directly, and the two sides would have a big fight, he would never have agreed.
Instead, Leah may be handed over to Flem for this reason. This seemingly impersonal scene is also for the stability of the adjudication court.
Without a tribunal, relying on his strength alone, he couldn't protect Hei Yan at all.
However, Leah's next words were not to provoke the relationship between the two.
"Your Majesty, we all admit that in the hearts of the Frim Court Lords, protecting the Neflet Continent and resisting the Kuroshio Tide comes first. It's just that over time, there are a lot of things that occupy his mind. We just want Lord Flem to return to purity and focus on resisting the Kuroshio's erosion of Neflett. ”
"It seems that the forces behind you are not small." Iroh chuckled, "Don't talk about it, let's talk about it, you came to persuade me this time, do you want me to do something, or just persuade me not to do anything." ”
Leah stroked her chest and bowed, "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I'm just here to convey our philosophy to you today, and I don't intend to take this opportunity to exchange your promises. We know that if we find out that what we are doing is not good for Neflett, even if you promise it today, you will break it tomorrow. We just hope that when you need to make a choice in the future, you will think about what is best for Neflett, rather than worrying about personal relationships and entanglements of interests. ”
"Finished? That's it? Iroh wasn't convinced.
Leah still bowed, only slightly raising her head, "That's it, that's all." ”
However, as soon as her words fell, a black flash of fire suddenly appeared out of the corner of her eye, and finally a violent impact and a fierce explosion.
In the deafening explosion, Leah almost thought she had been turned into char in the firelight. But when she regained consciousness a little, she found herself lying on the floor of the small garden, and the burning pain all over her body almost knocked her out again.
She was a little stunned for a moment, she didn't expect Emperor Ailuo to do this.
There was some chagrin and grievance in her heart, she was not able to complete the task assigned by Lord Thor after all.
She struggled to get up from the ground, and some of her skin tissue was peeled off as she got up.
It hurts, but Leah doesn't dare to use her sorcery in Emperor Eloh's small garden, which might anger the other party again.
She limped out, her flesh sticking to her clothes, casting a second line of punishment.
In order not to faint again, she walked and reflected on what had gone wrong, and when Leah finally stepped out of the small garden, two familiar figures rushed over.
These were the two wizards who were walking with Leah, and they were supporting Leah on the left and right, and their eyes were shocked.
They asked about the other person, and Leah struggled to tell them that the man had turned to ashes.
One of the older wizards shook his head and said, "I said don't take the initiative to disturb Your Majesty Iro, you young people, it's ......"
He didn't say the rest of the words, but Leah also knew that the other party thought that he and the dead wizard relied on the identity of the wizard of the Inquisition Court to communicate with Iroh, and behaved carelessly, and they deserved to be cleaned up like this by the other party.
Listening to the whispers of the wizard on the side, Leah suddenly understood why Emperor Ailo had attacked him in the end!
The wizard who had entered the garden directly before had been instigated by Leah to take the initiative to offend Emperor Ello. And Leah wants to take the opportunity of apologizing to talk to Iroh.
However, it was still a bit abrupt to do so, and Leah returned intact, perhaps with suspicion that she had said something to Iroh that had caused Iroh not to teach her a lesson.
And now, Iroh's last blow almost burned her into charcoal, so that the possible communication between the two of them turned into an offense to the fourth-order wizard, and she was directly taught a lesson, and she almost died.
Soon, the three of them walked out of Emperor Ello's bedchamber, one wizard was still chattering, as if he was afraid of being angered, while the other wizard directly began to help Leah treat her burns.
Leah could only smile bitterly in the face of the dizzying accusation, "I know, I really know." ”
