Chapter 1162 The Patriarch’s Speculation
"My people, they really, really want it."
The Elf Queen's eyes were surprised and she only spoke half of her words, but I already understood what she meant.
"Yes, Your Majesty the Queen," I said with a smile, "They long for the old life and the days when everyone could laugh and laugh together."
"I, I don't even know."
Before the Queen could finish speaking, I interrupted her and said: "Please don't say you don't know, Your Majesty the Queen, I think you should have known it for a long time. It is only because of the bonds of family ties, past memories, and the unbreakable pride in my heart that I continue to Deny yourself and deny this fact that you already know."
"Your Majesty," I said softly, and at the same time reached out and gently held the Queen's small hands on the table: "Please face the facts, face the truth, and don't be troubled and entangled by illusory fetters again and again. Try to get rid of it and show a true self, a posture that belongs only to you, the posture of a queen. You are the emperor of the elves and their leader. You should lead your people towards the light instead of being fettered. Drag, hide in your own hut, tell me, Your Majesty the Queen, what do you want to do, what do you plan to do, which one will you choose? Family love, or your people? The past, or the future? "
"me."
The Queen's panicked eyes kept looking around. She was so confused at the moment that she didn't know how to choose, how to face it, or what she was about to face.
This is the time when a person is most confused. Often at this time, all she needs is a little courage, and I have plenty of such things.
With more strength in my palms, I grasped the Queen's hands tightly. The originally weak and boneless little hands were completely wrapped in my hands.
The queen's confused thoughts were pulled back by my hand. She looked at my hand in confusion, then raised her head and looked at my face.
"Your Majesty," I nodded slightly at her, with firm eyes and a low voice: "Face your heart, face the future you most desire to see, don't be afraid, let alone worry, you have to believe in yourself, and even more, you have to believe in your son. People, everyone will support you and spare no effort to support you, because you are a good queen."
"I want to make peace with the fairies!"
Two lines of clear tears flowed from the corners of the Queen's eyes, along her flawless white face, dripping from her cheeks, onto the skirt of her chest, and onto my hand that was holding her little hand.
At this moment, she spoke her heart, which also meant that she cut off the past, cut off the illusory fetters, and carried an unknown future on her back.
but--
"Now that you have chosen, Your Majesty the Queen," I said with a smile, "please leave the rest to me. I will contact the Elf Clan Leader and arrange all the conditions she wants, and you only need to do what a Queen should do. made."
The elf queen opened her heart and stayed at my house for one night. In the early morning of the next day, she got up early and went back to the palace.
It seems that the Queen knows very well that although I have taken on most of the important tasks, she still has many things to complete, such as holding meetings for the elders, how to persuade the elders, and preparing an apology ceremony.
Thinking about it this way, it seems that the responsibilities shouldered by the Elf Queen are more severe and difficult than mine.
I went out with the Elf Queen. She went to the palace, and I went to the Elf Forest.
The forest was quiet in the early morning. Whether it was animals, insects, flowers, plants, or trees, they were all sleeping deeply.
I stepped lightly, trying not to disturb everything around me, but while I stepped lightly, my speed also slowed down relatively.
It took me more than twice the time as usual to finally reach the entrance of the goblin territory. Looking at the clear lake, I dialed the calling crystal.
Not long after, the goblin leader's lazy voice came from the crystal: "Who is it?"
"It's me, grandma, the patriarch, I'm An Xiaoyi."
"Oh, Xiaoyi, why do you want to see me this early in the morning?"
"Something's wrong," I said, "Grandma, the patriarch, I'm at the entrance of the territory now."
"Huh? Oh, you're already here, wait a moment."
The goblin leader hung up the crystal. After a few seconds, the portal slowly opened. I looked around, then sensed the surroundings. After confirming that no one was there, I quickly walked in.
The goblin clan leader had already changed his clothes and was sitting on a stone chair not far from the entrance. Leaning on the back of the stone chair, the clan leader half-squinted his eyes and said, "Xiao Yi, are you looking for me so early? Is there something urgent?"
"Yes" I said.
"Tell me, what's the emergency that makes you come to me so early?" The goblin clan leader lay quietly on the stone chair, looking like he was taking a nap.
"The Elf Queen decided to accept all the requests of the Patriarch Grandma, hoping to gain the Patriarch Grandma's understanding."
"I have never blamed Anastas," the goblin leader said: "Since the sin was committed by Akahavi, it should be borne by Akahavi alone."
"Yes, Grandma Patriarch, I told the Elf Queen the same thing, and the Queen believed it, and then" I found a stone chair next to me, and after sitting down, I continued: "The Elf Queen hopes you can lead you The clan members returned to Moonlight City."
"I have already stated the conditions for me to return to Moonlight City," said the Goblin Clan Leader: "This is a step that must be performed. If any of the steps are missing, I will not agree."
"So, I told you from the beginning," I said with a smile, "The Elf Queen has decided to accept all the requests of the Patriarch Grandma."
"Including putting down your dignity and apologizing to me?" the patriarch said with a slight frown.
"Yes," I said, "Every request."
"Yes." The leader of the goblin clan pondered for a moment and said, "Let's do this. Let her do it first. If she can really meet all my requirements, I will naturally lead my clan members out of here and return to Moonlight City."
"Hey, that's the best," I said, "Thank you, Grandma, the patriarch, for making it happen."
"Perfect?" The goblin clan leader chuckled: "Xiao Yi, did you promise Anasta anything?"
"Yes" I nodded: "I promise the Elf Queen that as long as she can meet all your requirements, I will invite you and your people to come out."
The goblin leader narrowed his eyes slightly: "Is that the only way?"
I nodded and said, "That's the only way."
"Not necessarily." The leader of the goblin tribe shook his head slightly: "If you just agree to let me and my people return to Moonlight City, it shouldn't be enough to sway her. Xiaoyi, did you say anything else to her?"
"Yeah" I nodded and said, "I talked to her about some pros and cons."
"So that's it." She chuckled and said, "Xiaoyi, although I see you again, I feel that you are much more mature than before, but you are still young."
"Why do you say that?" I asked puzzled.
"I understand Anastasia. She won't put down her dignity and family affection and fall in love with me just because of your words. I guess you must have said something to her that could shake her. Well, it must be related to the future development of the elves, maybe you also told her about the moonlight scepter?"
