Chapter 2094 The Best King
"Can we go into the sea from a nearby island?" I suggested, "For example, the island where I sent the distress signal would be a good choice."
"This idea sounds good," Master Dewey said, "but we still need to discuss it and gather everyone's wisdom to see if this method is feasible."
"We should discuss it. After all, this idea was a sudden idea of mine. Whether it is feasible or not remains to be seen. But foster father, you have to find a good partner when negotiating with others. When you tried to dive and were in danger, there were many nobles. Just gloating on the sidelines."
Master Dewey raised his hand and interrupted me.
And just after I remained silent for more than ten seconds, a waiter hurriedly walked out from the inside of the corner. After seeing Master Dewey and me more than ten meters away, he hurried forward and bowed to salute.
Master Dewey waved his hand, and the waiter hurriedly retreated.
Seeing that the people were far away, Master Dewey whispered: "There are many people here with many mouths and ears. We have some things to say, and we can talk about them after entering the forbidden room."
I promised, followed Master Dewey step by step, and entered the side door of the palace.
During lunch, Princess Analetta seemed very excited. She loves food and meat. Looking at the table full of exotic delicacies, she felt like she was in a dream.
During the dinner, watching Princess Analetta eating in a panic, the straightforward dwarf king asked me in a low voice: "Don't the elven royal family not eat meat?"
He originally wanted to lower his voice to avoid embarrassment, but he forgot that he was born with a loud voice. His low voice was similar to the volume of ordinary people talking normally, and he immediately attracted everyone's attention, including Princess Analetta.
The little princess was holding a chicken leg in one hand and a pig hand in the other. There was still unchewed steak in her mouth, and she looked at the dwarf king with an embarrassed look on her face.
At this time, she was reluctant to put down the meat in her hands, and felt embarrassed if she didn't put down the meat in her hands.
Faced with this situation, the Dwarf King also seemed very embarrassed. There was nothing wrong with what he said, but it was not suitable to say it on this occasion, let alone to be heard by outsiders.
But now that things had happened, he was unable to reverse the situation for a while, so he had no choice but to look at me for help.
Different from the embarrassment of the Dwarf King, I don't think there is anything embarrassing about this. It is said that food is the most important thing for the people. As long as you like it, you can eat as much as you can. If you live your whole life, if you have to be restricted even when you eat, what's the point? ?
But when I saw the Dwarf King’s panicked look for help, and when I thought of his trust and care for me in daily life, I couldn’t let this gathering become a worry for him.
So, I coughed lightly, which immediately attracted the attention of everyone present.
I wiped my mouth with a tissue and said with a smile: "Everyone, history is changing and times are progressing. Only by constantly abandoning old ideas and innovating new ones can mankind develop and society progress."
Everyone was confused, not knowing what I wanted to express, but the awkward atmosphere just now subsided a little unconsciously.
"Our Fort Vicky, since the age of legendary heroes, has always been at the forefront of the Zephyr Continent in terms of martial arts and technology, leading the trend and guiding history. Everyone, do you know why this is?"
Everyone looked at each other and then whispered among themselves. Soon, someone gave an answer: "Because of innovative new concepts?"
"Yes, we are strong because we have innovated new concepts, but this is not the only answer."
Everyone suddenly fell silent, and all eyes focused on my face again, looking forward to what would happen next.
After whetting my appetite for a while, I continued: "Because we not only innovated the concept, but also adhered to the tradition."
"So, what is our tradition?" Looking around at everyone, I said slowly: "Tenacity, unyielding, bravery, justice, and respect."
"There is no need to go into details about the first four points. Let's talk about respect. Respect is not only expressed in the demeanor shown to the enemy on the battlefield, but also expressed in the love and care for allies in daily life."
"Actually, what His Majesty just said is also a kind of respect, a kind of respect for the food traditions of the elves and royal families in Moonlight City. However, his old man's voice is louder, and he expresses his polite whispers in the form of tenor singing. , This caused everyone’s misunderstanding.”
There were a few good-natured chuckles among the crowd. The atmosphere at this time was already very friendly, but Princess Analetta was still a little unable to get off the stage.
I picked up the wine glass, walked slowly to the princess, and said with a smile: "You don't know, but the eating habits of the Elf royal family have also quietly changed with the changes of the times. The original bad habit of not eating meat has been changed. Gradually abandon it, as evidenced by our little princess Analetta.”
"Children's living habits are easy to change, because they are still young, and their outlook on life, values, and understanding of things are just a blank piece of paper. They can accept whatever the educator draws, but changing customs is very important for them. For adults, it is a bit more difficult. Today's Moonlight City is still dominated by many old diehards who control the state affairs. It is not an easy thing to accept new customs, nor is it an impatient thing. You have to do it slowly. It is precisely for this reason that the matter of the Elf Royal Family changing their customs has not spread. Naturally, Your Majesty will not know about it, so this farce happened."
"But based on this incident, we can draw a conclusion that our dwarf king is the best king who combines tenacity, unyielding, bravery, justice, and respect! This is our honor, and even more It’s an honor for Wychburgh!”
Raising the glass high, I shouted loudly: "For His Majesty, for Fort Wich, cheers!"
"cheers!"
Everyone raised their wine glasses and drank in cheers.
I quietly leaned over and whispered in Princess Analetta's ear: "I have already explained everything clearly. What are you still waiting for? Eat quickly, otherwise Remi will eat all the delicious food."
The little princess turned her head and saw Remi holding a chicken leg and gnawing at it. She was even more embarrassed when eating.
First he was surprised, then he became anxious and began to devour it.
The Dwarf King was quite satisfied with my speech and frequently raised glasses with me.
On the other hand, the Goblin King was a little dissatisfied: "My nephew, are you talking to him because he married your daughter to you?"
"How could that happen?" I chuckled and raised my glass to toast the Goblin King.
After drinking, the Goblin King snorted softly and said: "Return to the best king of Fort Vicky, humph, if I hadn't given him advice, he would have been in trouble for a long time!"
The Dwarf King didn't care about the dissatisfaction and ridicule from the Goblin King. They were old partners and old brothers, as close as blood relatives. When he was unconscious, he took over all the important tasks of Fort Vicky without saying a word. , not only allowed Fort Vicky to survive the difficulties smoothly, but also tried his best to protect his family.
If the Dwarf King is the best king in Fort Vicky, then the Goblin King is the man behind the success of the Dwarf King.
