Internal Meeting

Prince Ajel's reaction surprised all the elders, important officials, and even Ivan, who was the second prince.

Because in the past statements, Prince Ajel has always followed his father's decision and never made a statement without authorization.

And this time, before the Elf King made a statement, Ajel immediately expressed his objection! Even the whole emotion is very excited, such a situation has basically never happened in the past.

But after thinking about it, the elves were somewhat relieved.

Prince Ajel has an important position in the army. In the past, there was no diplomacy or war in the Elf Kingdom. Prince Ajel himself had no idea about those things, and naturally he followed the lead of the Elf King.

But this time, the matter of other countries wanting to obtain the right to garrison is obviously related to the military affairs of their elf kingdom, and this one is in the field where Prince Ajel lives. He reacted violently and expressed his opinions, which seemed to be a matter of course. of.

I didn't tangle more on this issue, and the unexpected emotions just flashed in the hearts of the elves.

After that, Prince Ajel's words were undoubtedly approved by many elders and officials.

For the elf kingdom that had been closed to the country and had no diplomacy before, just letting them resume diplomacy was already a big step.

And wanting them to allow other countries' troops to garrison in their territory is undoubtedly too high a demand, and it is a matter of course that there will be internal protests.

However, in the situation just now, not every elves supported Prince Ajel and protested.

In fact, including Prince Ivan, many elders and important officials did not express any opinion.

Of course, these elders and officials who did not express their opinions may not necessarily object to what Prince Ajel said. In fact, in this kind of meeting, there is no shortage of people in any country who do not express their opinions and remain neutral, and the Elf Kingdom is no exception. .

But there are definitely people who oppose it.

"Brother Wang's words, although they are very reasonable, but from the perspective of long-term national policy, I think this is a risk that our country must bear."

In private, although Ivan is directly referred to as 'elder brother', after all, there are many elders and officials, especially those elders, who pay the most attention to these etiquettes. Once caught, they will inevitably preach, so in some public places, Ivan also honestly calls Ajer 'Brother'.

Ivan's opening made Ajel frown.

"Ivan, Brother Wang knows that you have always been curious about the outside world, but this matter is very important, it is not the time for you to fool around!"

For his younger brother, Ajel is still very fond of him.

Therefore, as before, the other party suddenly ran over to meet the envoy out of his own curiosity. Although Ajer felt a little helpless, he also let him go.

After all, in Ajer's eyes, Ivan was less than fifty years old, still too young and far from mature.

However, the seriousness of the incident this time was incomparable to the previous one. Even if he favored Ivan again, he would not be able to let him be in such a national event.

At this time, he fully showed his majesty as a brother, and at the same time, he was thinking of taking this opportunity to teach Ivan a little bit.

Ivan had obviously never seen Ajer in such a state. He was a little uncomfortable at this moment, and was stunned.

During this period, Ajel turned his head to look at his father, hoping that his father would speak up, and take this opportunity to reprimand Ivan a little.

Although Ivan is still young, he is an adult after all. As the second prince of their Elf Kingdom, his behavior should be restrained, and he can no longer be so childish.

However, what Ajel didn't expect was that Jason Rust, who was sitting on the main seat, pressed his hand on him in the face of this situation.

"Calm down, Ajel, you're just too impatient, at least listen to what Ivan wants to say."

After speaking, Jason Rust looked at Ivan with interest.

"Go on, Ivan."

Ajel was a little surprised by his father's reaction. For a while, he really didn't know what to say. In the end, he could only keep his mouth shut, feeling a little complicated.

Compared to Ajer, who had mixed feelings in his heart, the reactions of the other elders and ministers were much calmer.

In their opinion, this behavior of His Majesty the Elf King is to guide and cultivate Prince Ivan. In fact, when Prince Ajer began to participate in the meeting, His Majesty did the same.

Although some older brothers with signs of anger startled Ivan, but feeling the encouraging eyes from his father, Ivan quickly calmed down and began to express his thoughts.

Speaking of which, it was the first time he expressed his opinion in this kind of meeting.

As before, in the several meetings he participated in, Ivan has always just simply responded to his father's decision.

So, as early as the moment Ivan spoke, Jason Rust had already thought about it, no matter what Ivan said, he would let Ivan finish.

What's more, Ivan's words did make him a little interested.

With the encouragement of his father, Ivan, who adjusted his state and organized his thoughts, soon spoke again...

"First of all, I am very firm, and at the same time, I am very convinced that our country needs diplomacy!"

Ivan, who said this, looked directly at his frowning brother Ajel without the slightest timidity.

"This point can be fully reflected from this incident. If we did not establish diplomatic relations with the Dark Iron Empire, what price would our Elf Kingdom pay in the next war?"

Faced with this question from Ivan, Ajel said directly without thinking...

"Under the situation at the time, this was a move that had to be done! Regardless of casualties, our Elf Kingdom needs to show our strength to the outside world in this way to achieve the effect of deterrence!"

Ajel's remarks made all the elves present subconsciously nodded, and even the elf king Jason Rust agreed, because the situation at the time was true for them, it was them The consensus reached internally, and at that meeting, Ivan was also there.

At this moment, in the conference room, all the elves would inevitably think, Prince Ivan is still too young, the other party may want to use this point to reflect the importance of diplomacy, but obviously this point is not a good one.

In the end, before they could think about it, Ivan had already sworn to speak again...

"The point is here. Our elven kingdom needs to risk its own heavy losses. What is the fundamental reason for such a move?"

Having said this, Ivan took a deep breath, and then uttered a new vocabulary learned from Ye Qingxuan during the previous chat.

"It's international influence! Our elf kingdom is all over the world and lacks international influence!!"
