[The Lord of the Rings] Thranduil I: The Last Journey

Tao Ruier never expected that the development of the matter was far worse than expected.

Forest parties and heart-to-heart talks over wine, none of these have completely cleared the haze between father and son.On the contrary, the divergence of values ​​also brought about the most intense confrontation between father and son after the reunion, which made the young elf feel more suspicious and even chose to leave.

That was after Legolas heard her report to Thranduil.

"The Blue Mountains don't have what you're looking for, and the gems handed down from the ancient times of the Double Trees didn't fall into the hands of the dwarves in the Blue Mountains." Taurier respectfully told what she found out when she went out before.

"Have you checked the dwarves scattered around? I will not let go of any possibility."

"Yes, I'm sure." She replied with some trepidation, "Even if the dwarves still have beautiful white gems, they may not necessarily be the treasures of Menegroth..."

"I don't care about their origin at all." Thranduil said with a blank expression, but raised his voice.

"My lord, ever since you and Lord Celeborn made a boundary, there are enough gems in the dense forest to be inlaid with the costumes of the elves. This has always been the richest territory in Middle-earth. There is really no need..."

Thranduil just said coldly: "Liuying will not be able to find out the mysteries of the stars in his whole life."

"You can always spy on one or two."

Thranduil looked sideways, for her courage.

"I've been thinking about it for the past few years. Your Majesty is secluded from the country but trades frequently. He loves gems but spends money like water. He loves the people but does not hesitate to fight for treasures. These are all for gems, but what is behind the gems is causing trouble..."

"Enough," the king's eyes were like a sea of ​​dark clouds, impatient and ready for a storm. "I thought you would improve a little in the past 200 years. You got along with the dwarves outside the forest a lot, and you even spoke strangely."

The sharp words made the female elf, who was full of enthusiasm, instantly get hurt.

At this time, she was surprised to find that Legolas had been standing in the corridor, listening to their conversation.

He walked towards Thranduil expressionlessly, saluted slightly, and said: "Since Ada doesn't care about the source of the gems, she will fight against the dwarves later, the slogan of the Green Leaf Forest is no longer a cliché of protecting family treasures." It's just purely out of the king's paranoia and covetousness for treasure."

"Legolas..."

Tauriel was extremely surprised by the appearance of Legolas, and after hearing his extremely disrespectful treatment of the king, he had the urge to cry without tears.

She realizes she's messed up again!She always put them into inexplicable conflicts like a spell, and this time she tore apart the hard-won peace between father and son for 200 years.

However, Thranduil seemed to be used to his son's confrontation. After being slightly surprised, he raised his eyebrows and said with a sneer: "This is a very good idea, and I will seriously consider it."

After speaking, he directly ended this meaningless topic and turned around to leave.

"King, is that why you want to stay?" Legolas asked behind him, "Those lifeless gems, are they really that important?"

The king froze for a moment, and finally turned around, giving him a firm answer:

"Yes, they are very, very important, more than life."
