Led by the elven guards, Thorin finally arrived at the Throne of Thorns.

It stands to reason that the so-called throne should be in the palace, but the capital of the wood elves does not have a palace, or the entire capital is a unity, and the throne of thorns is in the middle of this unity.

A tall and handsome male elf sat on the Throne of Thorns at this time.

His legs were folded and he leaned back on the throne's chair, one hand supporting his cheeks and the other holding the armrest of the Throne of Thorns.

His fingers were slender and white, like a woman's hand, but who would have thought that it was these hands that led generations of Wood Elf warriors in mortal battles against Morgoth and the Dark Lord Sauron.

He was the King of Thrandil, and his countenance was more handsome than that of his son Leglas, and he was even more heroic and not angry.

His long pale blonde hair was covered with a beautiful crown of thorns, like antlers, and a series of small lilac flowers bloomed around the crown of thorns.

He was a perfect man by every measure.

It shows that he had seen King Thranduil a long time ago, and at that time King Thranduil's expression was respectful and humble, and now, King Thranduil's blue eyes were full of strangeness and indifference.

King Thranduil shouldn't have remembered Thorin, but when he saw Thorin on the Throne of Thorns, he saw Thorin as if he were a stranger.

The elven guard knelt down on one knee at Thrandil, "Your Majesty, the dwarves who have invaded our woodland kingdom have been brought in, and are waiting for your fate!" ”

King Thranduil raised a finger lazily and gracefully, and the elven guard immediately understood what he meant, bowed, and retreated.

In the empty area of the palace, only Thranduil and Thorin were left.

Thranduil shifted his cheek hand to a different position, and then said coldly, "I admire your courage, Thorin. ”

Thorin was taken aback, "I thought you didn't know who I was. ”

Lord Thranduil smiled mockingly, "You are the grandson of the old King Thor, the son of the Crown Prince Thorne, and you stood by Thor's side when I went to the Lonely Mountain Palace. ”

Thorin raised his head proudly, "Since you know who I am, you should treat me with courtesy, instead of putting me and my people in prison!" ”

King Thranduil smiled faintly: "Do you want me to treat you politely?" Yes, but do you have the capital? Many years ago, you were the prince of the Dwarves of the Lonely Mountain, and not only the Dwarves of the Lonely Mountain recognized your status as the entire dwarven race, but now what are you? Tell me, what are you? ”

Thorin clenched his fists in anger.

King Thranduil's words seemed to be an understatement, but they were heartfelt, and every word poked at Thorin's most painful place.

He wanted to challenge King Thrandil right away, but he knew that he was no match for King Thrandil, and that he had more important things to do than just his fighting spirit.

That is, return to the Lonely Mountain.

Thorin's furious mood began to calm down, he released his fist, and said to King Thranduil in a deep voice, "I am indeed nothing now, but as long as I return to the Lonely Mountain, I can be crowned King of the Lonely Mountain, and when the time comes, I will make you and your Wood Elves pay the price." ”

King Thranduil blinked in confusion, "The price? Is it just because I put you all in jail? ”

Thorin said in a deep voice, "It's not a big deal not to be imprisoned, but you wood elves have betrayed us Lone Mountain Dwarves!" It is precisely because of your refusal to save us that we have lost the Lonely Mountain Palace! ”

King Thranduil laughed, "So your so-called price is this." ”

Thorin said angrily, "Isn't it ridiculous! Our people have been displaced and uprooted from their homes, all thanks to you! You shameful traitor! ”

If it were an ordinary person who was scolded like this, I am afraid it would have exploded a long time ago, not to mention that the person who was scolded was still a king, an elf king.

But King Thranduil was not angry, and a mocking smile seemed to perpetually hang on his lips, and his gaze seemed to see through all things in the world.

He said lightly to Thorin, "It wasn't me who really displaced your people, it was the dragon Smaug, who was the first to be driven to when Smaug took over your palace. ”

Thorin said angrily: "Yes, you were the first to arrive, but you didn't make a move, you just stood there and watched!" Then turn around and go! ”

Thranduil said lightly, "So you expect our wood elves to storm the palace that has been burned?" Will you die with your mad king? Should we Wood Elves be your victims? ”

King Slandil paused and said coldly, "What's more, at that time, you and your father dragged the old king away, and you all know that you should quickly flee from Smaug's wrath in that situation, why do you hold a grudge against us for refusing to accompany us to the funeral?" ”

Thorin was dumbfounded.

He hated King Thranduil with anger for decades, but when he really faced King Thrandil, he was powerless to fight back by King Thranduil in a few words.

Yes, the Wood Elves were indeed their allies at the time, but when they calm down and think about it, the Dwarves of the Lonely Mountain did not give the Wood Elves any benefits, and they could not ask the Wood Elves to bury them for them.

It's just that for so many years, Thorin has been supported by such hatred, and now he suddenly doesn't know who he should hate.

King Thranduil paused for a moment before he said lightly, "I admire your courage, you were able to organize an expedition of dwarves through the dangerous Misty Mountains and back to the Lonely Mountain, which is quite a heroic thing

And, of course, if necessary, I'm willing to be the first to recognize you as the new king of the Gushan Dynasty. ”

Thorin's eyes widened suddenly, "Is this true?" ”

"I have the conditions." King Thranduil laughed.

Thorin held his head high, trying to maintain his dignity, making himself look more like a king than a prisoner, "Tell me, what conditions do you want?" ”

King Thranduil said coldly, "I want it, the White Jewel Necklace." ”

Thorin said angrily, "Sure enough, you are coveting the treasure of our dwarves!" ”

King Thranduil frowned and said, "Dwarven treasure? Do you really think so? ”

Thorin said confidently: "Everything that has been excavated in our lonely mountain is the property of our lover!" You can only get it when we dwarves want to give it to you, but you can't ask us for it! ”

King Thranduil laughed, and the crown of thorns above his head trembled with his laughter.

Then his handsome face became extremely hideous, and his beautiful face seemed to be burned by fire.

He whispered in a hoarse voice, "Greedy dwarves! Do you know why Smaug took over your palace? It is your greed that has caused all this! I should not have had any hope for you, now go back to your prison and fend for yourself in the dampness and darkness! Someone is coming and take him away! ”
