Wizard From Afar

The little wizard standing under the eyes of the public spoke softly, trying to suppress his excitement and tension, looking up ahead with the look of Charlotte, slightly raised.

Confidence, Ayin, be confident, you can do it.

The silent chair room, with a strange dead silence; as if standing there, she could hear everyone's heartbeat and breathing.

"It’s great to come for peace and friendship; how, does the Emperor of the Human Empire promise that as long as the elves are willing to kneel down and show'friendship' by bowing their heads to him, he is willing Give us peace?"

An indignant voice sounded from the "staircase", and the mystifying tone was even more unabashedly hostile, as well as icy cold.

Sure enough...tone barely fell, the temperature in the whole hall seemed to drop a few degrees; a pair of vision came, and it became worse.

The panicked little wizard suddenly raised his head and looked around; but the light in the long room was too dim to see who had just spoken.

No, it can't be over like this... With a clenched powder fist back to his back, Ai Yin forcefully calms down.

"In the empire, kneeling and bowing your head is a very sacred thing. It means that one person makes an oath of eternal allegiance to another person and makes a promise of never betrayal."

The little wizard spoke softly, but his calm appearance surprised the Elders in the front row: "This word, we call it'loyalty', is obviously different from'peace' and'friendship'. "

"This means that the empire has placed everyone here on par with itself, and it means that the empire has made equal promises to the elves of the ancient wood forest. Therefore, what I bring today is'friendship' and'peace'; therefore, today we will not discuss the issue of who is'loyal' to whom."

"How to establish friendship and how to maintain peace is We are going to discuss today." Ai Yin blinked and moved towards looking in the direction from the sound just now, smiling and speaking:

"Although I don’t know your Excellency, please ask me for this'word explanation' , Are you satisfied?"

The situation is turning around.

The atmosphere in the hall was quiet for a moment, but the previous imposing manner of overbearing disappeared a lot—the voice hiding in the back row also did not continue to speak in embarrassment.

The little wizard finally plucked up the courage, but his mind quietly shifted to not long ago...

"...Don’t underestimate the language, Ain. Use it properly, when the time comes, Language is also a kind of weapon; "At the entrance of two cups of red blood wine, Charlotte, with blurred eyes, gently hugged the little wizard's neck, like a loved one:

"You are born with With an approachable temperament and learning to use language, you will become the best diplomat in the empire...well, second only to me."

"How do I learn?" Feeling half of the body pressed over Weight, and a soft, flushed little wizard shiver coldly with a hint of heat in his arms.

"Good question, this question I... a long time ago, um, I used to talk to that big liar." The drunken headache made Charlotte desperately hug Ayin's lovable body, like the other person Her body fragrance and thin shoulders can greatly relieve her pain:

"He said a lot, but he just opened his mouth, and there is no system or theory at all."

"In my eyes, there are only three points!"

"Three, three points?" Feeling the other person rubbing the sideburns on his shoulders, Ai Yin was so scared that he could not speak.

"First, never answer other people’s questions, avoid it or say that you have already thought it out; second, if someone uses your words to ask you back, or catch your painful foot, don’t Try to confront or cover up, but turn the question back; good at listening can avoid being asked."

"Finally, and most importantly, don’t try to persuade others. Or persuade anyone that people are confrontational; to find the main contradiction in the confrontation between the two sides, find it, and solve it!"

"As long as the main contradiction is resolved, at least the other party’s attitude can be changed from When the hostility turns to neutrality, they will be really willing to listen to your voice; then you can give full play to your innate talent and use your sincere sincerity to influence them."

"When necessary , You can make some sacrifices, even if it is... a costly sacrifice..." Like Charlotte who remembered the past, her drunk cheeks became even more red: "This is what I'm proud of... mediation. "

"That, that's its name..." Ayin cautiously asked: "It's called...Charlotte's mediation?"

"No, how can it work— This is what you recorded, I dictated, and we summed up together with the wine. "Drunk-eyed Charlotte, with a leisurely smile at the corner of her mouth:

"There should be something that can represent us The name of the result of the joint effort...hmm...let me think about it, think about it, it's called...Charlotte Ain-style mediation...well, just this name, I really have a very literary style..."

" …You are indeed very literary, His Excellency Ain Rand, you deserve to be a messenger representing the emperor."

An Elder, a misty moon court elf sitting in the front row, spoke, but with a sneer at the corner of his mouth. : "But one or two witty remarks can't bring peace and friendship."

"You said you came for peace and friendship, then how can the empire bestow these two elves on us in these remote forests? What about them?"

It is still the problem of overbearing.

"In the empire's vocabulary,'giving' is connected with'peace' or even'friendship', which are the most standard wrong sentences." A calm smile appeared at the corner of Ai Yin's mouth:

"Peace or friendship cannot be bestowed from one direction to the other."

"I said, His Excellency Ain Rand, playing with vocabulary and witty words, you can’t..."

p>

"Because these two can only be obtained by working together!" With eyes wide open, the little wizard's extremely serious attitude made the surrounding elves even ignore the interrupted Elder:

"On behalf of the empire, His Majesty Eckhart II of the Sky Palace, I am willing to exchange the most sincere friendship with all the elves of the ancient wood forest to build our own Common peace!"

"This is my promise, Ain Rand made to you; I also hope to exchange for your promises, because I believe that the elves who love the forest, the elves who are fighting bloody battle with ogre We understand the value of peace!"

"Because I believe that I...and the empire behind me came here, sent messengers to communicate with you, reached a proper agreement, and finally realized the real Peace!"

Elder in Wuyue Court was speechless on the spot, speechless.

The silence and silence were broken, and whispers among the Elders came from the back of the stairs.

"You are willing to exchange your sincerity with your sincerity and promise in exchange for promises. This is admirable...because we are the same."

A naked upper body, beard and hair Elder Lin, whose eyebrows were grayed out, stood up, calmly like a big brass bell eroded by the wind:

"So in your opinion, now we and your emperor, and his Which party caused the contradiction between the empires?"

This...the little wizard frowned, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes.

He is not expressing hostility in this remark, but he has already clearly driven himself out!

On the one hand, the little wizard certainly can’t say “it’s all the elves’ fault”, so this meeting has just begun and the talk will fall apart;

On the other hand, She also couldn't say "this is the fault of the empire", that is, she fell into the trap. Then the other party had a way to arrange Luo Zhi's "criminal" so that this meeting became a horn for the elves to declare war on the empire.

In that way, as the imperial envoy with full authority, Loren Torino gave the Sky Palace a punishment and condemnation, the best reason.

"This...we should not only see the contradictions in the past, but look towards the future..."

"I don't care about the future!" Elder drank off the complexion pale little wizard, and condescendingly questioned:

"I only want you to tell me, in the hearts of you and the imperial emperor, is all this our fault? !"

"I..."

"Answer me, yes or no?!"

His eyes were furious, like copper bells.

The appalling sense of oppression and the sudden silence of the hall made Ayin feel suffocated-this is a horror that has never been seen on the battlefield of Boye.

No... it did, but it was blocked by some bad guy.

And this time, no one will stand in front of you anymore; this time, you have to face it alone.

No longer obediently hiding in a safe place, no longer silently doing something for him behind his back, no longer hiding cautiously...this time, Ayin Rand, to personally defeat Own enemy!

lifts the head, the little wizard and Elder Lin stared at each other without flinching: "Since you want to know the answer so much, then I will tell you."

Under everyone's eyes, Elder Lin, who was staring at the barren mound, felt very uncomfortable.

This feeling made him very angry, and his expression became more and more horrible.

"Yes--!"

The audience was in an uproar.

Hearing this, the Elders in the longhouse showed irritation and resentment; either they glared at them or sighed on their faces.

"Look, this is the sincerity of your empire! This is what you say!" Elder Lin said indignantly: "You really admitted that all the mistakes are on us, you It's innocent!"

"Yeah, isn't this what you want me to say? Isn't this scene the same as you, do some of you want to see?" Ai Yin Leng coldly said:

"Your Excellency, you don't know how to listen. You just want to hear what you want to hear, and then manipulate this meeting!"

"You... …" Elder Lin was startled, angrily on his face.

"I came with a sincere heart, for the friendship and peace of both parties." Ai Yin intercepted his words for the first time: "But you use such devotion to righteousness that inspires reverence time and time again. I asked in a tone of voice, desperately asking me who was right and who was wrong-is this a question that two people who want to make friends would ask?!"

"The Empire treats you as equals. It expresses the most sincere sincerity; and you want to know who is right and who is wrong again and again, but you keep creating cracks and frictions in this sincerity, and you want to deliberately separate the upper and lower ones and make equals. Relations have become unequal."

"Also ask-there are unequal friendships in this world. Does the friendship between the elven settlements also have to distinguish between high and low, high and low?!"

The excited little wizard used all his strength and flushed, almost shouting these words with a roar.

The sharp voice reverberates for a long time in the long house shaped like a "concert hall".

The whispers, discussions, loud noises, yells... were all covered by the voice of a little wizard.

"The prerequisite for friendship and peace is mutual respect and understanding." After a moment of indulgence, the flushed Ayin choked his throat: "Of course, there is the most sincere sincerity."

"Well said, really nice-sound-sincere?!"

Before Huangzhong Elder Lin sat down, the other Elder next to him stood up: "How can we believe that your empire is really willing to make peace with us, not a false lie?"

"Without real evidence, you actually have to convince them that what you say is true, It’s too whimsical!"

"You don’t need to do this at all—!"

All eyes turned towards him, and the one who stood up to speak was Elder of Morning Star Lin, impassioned. The expression on Elder Lin is diametrically opposed to that of Elder Lin.

"If you talk about sincerity...Morning Star Forest, and all the settlements in the Eastern Forest, they are willing to believe in Ain Rand's sincerity-because Ain Rand has already responded with practical actions."

"During the Ogre invasion, Ain Rand and thousands of war dancers stood side by side under the tree wall to fend off the enemy; with sweat, sincerity and wisdom, he saved countless young elves;"

"When we were negotiating with Deep Limburg and the rulers of the human world, it was Ain Rand who mediated and tried his best to maintain the fragile at first, and the two sides did not trust each other's peace;"

"Ain Rand... has proven to us with practical actions that it is possible to live in peace with the human world; and all the elves who have fought bloody battles in the tree wall are also obliged to die for Ain Rand once!"

"So today, our morning star forest will protect Ain Rand-if I die, let me fulfill my vow today!"

Morning star Elder Lin, using this is no exaggeration "The oath put an end to his speech.

The atmosphere in the hall became calm.

There is no elf who dares to speak.

The corner of Ai Yin's mouth finally showed a triumphant smile-she knew that these Elders had been persuaded by herself to believe in the sincerity of the empire's trip.

The next step is to go a step further and find the biggest contradiction and "difference points" between the two sides, lower your stance, and make some harmless compromises and concessions, then you can...

" It’s very good, it’s wonderful."

An abrupt voice came from a corner of the long room:

"Unfortunately, all of these are impossible to achieve. ."
