Chapter 131: The Man in Black Robe

Syudeya is very angry now, because Carl had sworn to her before that he was going to deal with state affairs, but now he is eating and drinking here and spouting "big words".

How can such a contrast make people not angry?

Carl turned his head with difficulty and looked at Syudea's gnashing of teeth, as if she would rush to bite him in the next moment, with a reluctant smile on his face, and said with difficulty:

"Well, Syudea, when are you here."

"What do you think?" Shiyudaya's eyes were still cold.

Seeing Syudea's cold and stern look, Carl couldn't feel it for a second.

He was so careless just now that he didn't notice Syudea's approach.

"Ahaha, that, Syudea, that's just a joke," Carl bites the bullet and tries to explain, "I'm here to liven things up.

"Remnant? Is it?" Shiyudaya's scrutiny eyes moved, "Didn't you say you want to rebel?"

"Ahaha, rebel? Hahahaha," Carl was about to cry, hugging his stomach and laughing, "Shyudya, you are really… joking, rebel? I…"

Seeing that Syudea's face became even colder, Carl had to stop laughing, coughed twice, paused, and then looked at Syudea resentfully: "How dare I rebel?"

"Humph!" Seeing Carl's weak and pitiful looking eyes, Syudea was still a little unhappy in her heart, but the displeasure in her heart also subsided a lot.

Of course, she would not admit that she was soft-hearted.

Glancing at the scattered empty wine jars and glasses, she frowned again: "No more drinking!"

"Okay, I'll listen to you.

Carl felt helpless, and spread his hands to the dwarves watching the play.

After all, he was caught, so Carl couldn't do anything about it.

Groin and Balin were still a little surprised and puzzled at the moment, but they didn't ask immediately.

After a while of interruption, Carl began to introduce Syudea, and Groin and Balin also knew that this woman was the princess of Rohan Kingdom – Syudea, the lord's wife of Carl.

Although they had heard that Carl might have a partner when they entered Isengard, the two were surprised for a while when they saw it with their own eyes.

However, after the surprise, the two sides were polite again, and it was considered a acquaintance.

Then, after eating and drinking, Carl talked again with the two dwarves, Groin and Balin, during which he learned about the current situation of Lonely Mountain, and also talked about the various cooperation between the two kingdoms in the future.

Groin and Balin had originally proposed to help Carl repair all the cities and palaces for free, as well as to pave the roads between the cities, and teach the barbarians to mine and forge.

The reason is — it's all they owe Carl.

However, such a proposal was naturally rejected by Carl.

Because Carl believes that the dwarves don't really owe him anything, and if he continues to use their sincerity for his own benefit, it would be really "deceiving too much".

Carl sometimes thinks he's still a "good guy", so he doesn't intend to continue to bully his dwarf friends.

So he proposed; the two countries can trade with each other. Dwarves can live in Isengard, build iron shops, sell weapons and ore, and help Isengard to build cities when necessary, and Isengard will also reward them with corresponding preferential prices for food and furs.

Seeing Carl say this, Groin and Bahrain were originally reluctant, but they couldn't bear Carl's "rejection" and the three finally reached a preliminary agreement.

The conversation fell apart, and the three of them were all enjoying themselves, so Carl asked someone to arrange for the dwarves to rest.

At night, Isengard Fortress fell into peace again.

Different from the noise and training shouts during the day, Isengard at night is so beautiful under the watery moonlight.

Carl was now standing on the edge of the window on Oshank Tower, staring out at the vast plains and hills, silent.

Although it was very late at night, he did not fall asleep. Of course, the reason, of course, was there.

He is waiting..

Time ticked by, just when Carl thought he might have miscalculated.

There was a sound of footsteps in the steam room, but it came from the darkness, although it was very faint, but Carl heard it.

However, after the sound, it suddenly stopped in the distance.

"What," Carl finally said, "Come on, don't you plan to say something?"

The person he was waiting for has arrived.

"You know it's me?" A surprised voice came from the darkness.

"Of course," Carl turned his head back and said slowly, "after all, are you so clear-sighted?"

When the words fell, footsteps sounded again in the darkness, and under the faint moonlight, a figure slowly appeared.

The person who came was the tall, black-robed man in the dwarf mission.

However, the black-robed man at the moment had already taken off the hood on his head, and his face became clear.

The long hair like flowing water seems to exude a soft crystal brilliance under the moonlight, and the bright eyes also seem to reveal a clear light in the dark.

"Why are you here?" Carl asked slowly, looking at the familiar face.

"Aren't you happy to see me?" Hearing such an indifferent tone, the cold voice came, but it was filled with despair and sadness.
