King Robert wore a black velvet tunic with two vertical rows of gold buttons evenly arranged on either side of the chest. On the chest is embroidered with gold thread the crown stag of the House of Baratheon, and the outer cover is a black and gold plaid cloak. He had a bottle of wine in his hand and his face was flushed with drink.

Queen Cersei Lannister follows the king with a jeweled crown on her head. Around her neck was a large disc-like evenly folded collar, high-grade silk, brightly colored and beautifully made. It makes her look solemn and dignified. This silk pleated collar was only eligible to be worn by members of the royal family.

The king is warm, the queen is indifferent.

"Your Majesty, I beg your pardon for not being able to get up. Ed said from the bed.

"It's fine. The King's voice was loud, he opened his double-breasted waisted blouse, his belly bulging outward, "Ned, how do you feel?"

"My head is still dizzy, and my back hurts terribly. ”

"You're lucky that the Magic Mountain didn't cut off your head. The queen said coldly.

The king glared at the queen and sat down on the edge of Ed's bed, "Why don't you have a nice drink?"

"Let's have a little bit, then. ”

There were no servants, no supervisors, and no guards in the room.

The conversation between the King and Ed is classified, and the Elder Guard at the gate has been replaced with the Kingsguard.

The king was glad that Ed could have a drink with him, and he immediately poured it from his own glass, and Ed took it, took a small drink, frowned, and the king laughed.

"Paiselle told me that your condition is fine, and that you will recover completely as long as you take care of yourself. The King's tone changed, and he said in a deep voice, "Eddard, you already know what Catelyn did at the Cross Inn in the Riverlands, right? ”

"I know. Ed took another sip of wine, "My lady is not wrong, Your Majesty. It's all what I mean. I have a reason to catch Tyrion Lannister......"

"I don't care if you're justified or unreasonable. Robert said, "I won't allow you to do this, Ned, do you want a civil war in the kingdom? ”

"Your Majesty, Tyrion murdered my son Branstark, and you told me to leave it at that?" Jaime ordered the Magic Mountain to kill three of my men in the streets, and Jory Keso was my captain. His father, Martin Kesso, followed me to fight in the South, died under the Sword of Dawn and is buried next to the Tower of Elysium in the Southern Dorne Territory. When Martin Caesso was dying, he asked me to take care of his child, Joric Keso, who I had not even had time to make a knight. The more Ed spoke, the more excited he became.

Sixteen years ago, in order to save his sister Lyanna Strauber's fiancée Eddard, and six of his men fought against three Kingsguards, all of whom were famous, among which Dawn Excalibur was the most famous. In a bloody battle, all the Kingsguard was killed, and only two of Ed's seven people remained, himself and the small Zedi man Holland Reed. Among them, Jory Keso's father, Martin, died in the battle at the Elysium Tower, and was buried next to the Elysium Tower by Ed along with four companions.

"Northerner, you said that Tyrion murdered your crippled son, please show me your evidence?" Queen Cersei said coldly.

"A Valyrian short knife, in the hands of a killer. ”

"So where is the killer, and where is the knife?"

"The killer has been bitten to death by Bran's wolf, and the knife is in Catelyn's hand, and that's evidence of his killing. ”

"The killer is dead? Is there no proof of death? Hehe, your lie is seamless. And what about knives? Tyrion doesn't have a Valylian dagger. What do you think you are? You said Tyrion murdered your crippled son, and he did?" the queen sneered.

"Say no more, woman. King Robert said, "Ed don't argue, listen to me, this is the end of the matter." Tell Catelyn to let Tyrion go, and if Lady Catelyn insists that Tyrion hired the killer to murder Bran, I need proof, and I need Tyrion's defense. ”

"Everything is back to normal, under the supervision of the royal law, and the kingdom has the Imperial Ministers, the Council, and the Minister of Law, and I will not allow either of you to take private action in circumvention of the laws of the kingdom, do you understand? Lannister, Stark, don't mess with the kingdom. ”

"Your Majesty, Jaime ordered the Mountain to kill three of my men just because he wanted my wife to know 'Lannister, debts must be paid', and you told me to act as if this had not happened?"

"Ned, you've killed three people, and the Westside has killed six. ”

"I died the guards, and the Westside died no more than six rogue soldiers. ”

"Tsk!" the queen sneered, "Two lives in the west are not worth the poor lives of the north? And it was your men who took the lead in attacking Jaime and the Magic Mountain, and Jaime didn't fight back, and the Magic Mountain and his knights also maintained restraint and did not make a move, otherwise, do you think the northerners can exchange one person for two people in the west? Tsk! What are you! Catelyn kidnapped Tyrion at the Cross Inn in the Riverlands, and you attacked Jaime in King's Landing, don't think we don't know, you just got out of the brothel and got drunk. ”

Ed was so angry that his face turned pale and his lips trembled slightly.

"Robert!" Ed said coldly, "you can ask Lord Baerich, he was there at the time. ”

"I've spoken to Littlefinger," said the king, almost with a roar, "and he said he had hurried to the capital guards, and that you had not yet begun the fight, but he confessed that you had come out of a brothel. ”

"Robert, you know what I am, I didn't drink or fool around in a brothel, I was there to see your daughter! Her name was Barra, and she looked a lot like your daughter when we lived in the canyon and were little boys, your first daughter. Eddard's words were like knives, and he looked at the queen as he spoke. But she seemed to be wearing a mask, pale and calm.

Robert blushed, "Barra?" he muttered, "her mother is damned, how could that stupid woman think of giving birth to a child, seven hells!"

Ed said, "Robert, I heard that the Kingkiller and the Demon Mountain have escaped from the city, please allow me to take Jaime back to face the law." ”

The king snatched the glass from Eddard's hand and took a large gulp. "No, it's going on like this endlessly. Jaime killed three of you, and you killed six of him, and it was tied. I allowed Lady Caitlyn to come to the palace to accuse Tyrion of murder, but she had to present evidence, she had no right to lynch people, you understand? ”

The queen sneered: "Robert, I thought you were the king of a country, and you actually whispered in front of the surname Stark, talking about the law and marriage, Jaime and Tyrion are your brothers, and now the Stark family has driven one away and arrested the other, but you will only stand obediently next to him, ask him if he is still in pain for a while, ask him if he drinks for a while, and ask Stark softly to understand your difficulties and let them stop." You don't feel ashamed, I feel ashamed of myself, if there was another king, I would have arrested Stark and beheaded him. ”

Robert's face was gloomy, which was a precursor to the storm: "Woman, shut up!"

Cersei shrieked and laughed, "Robert, you should be a woman in a dress, and I should be the one who wears a man like a man." ”

The king held the glass in his right hand, but he still had his left hand. The king threw a fist in Cersei's face with his left hand, knocking the queen to the ground. The King's chest rose and fell sharply, and Cersei proclaimed, "Well played, Robert, thank you for the medal of honor you gave me." Her face would soon swell, but she regarded the scar as the highest honor.

"Then wear the Medal of Honor quietly, and I don't mind giving you more honor if you still want it. Robert's eyes widened with a fierce look.

The woman closed her mouth and sat half-lying on the ground, her hands covering her face after being punched.

"Someone!" cried the king.

Dressed in a white cloak and white armor, the tall, gloomy Sir Malintlan pushed the door open and entered.

The queen was tired and sent her back to her room. "The king ordered.

Malintlan stooped down to pick up the queen and led her out without saying a word.

Robert picked up the bottle and poured it for himself, and drank several glasses in a row before his breath gradually calmed down: "Ned, you saw it just now...... I'm not happy to be a king at all...... The Iron Throne was supposed to be for you or Jon......" The King intermittently looked sad, "I know I'm not the King's fray...... No matter how hateful she is, she is still my wife, and a man should not beat a woman, especially his own wife...... What the hell is this!" His eyes began to fill with tears, and Ed couldn't believe it, Ed had never seen a king in such a vulnerable moment.

"I've always had a lot of strength...... You know, you can only barely lift my warhammer, do you admit it?"

Ed nodded, and Robert was telling the truth.

"Nobody can beat me, nobody. But if you can't touch your enemies at all, how can you fight this fight?" the king looked at Eddard like a helpless child.

"Rhaegar...... Rega he won, he's it. Ned, my hammer slashed through his black armor and pierced his black heart, killing him instantly. I killed him, won honor and kingdom, but in the end, Rhaegar won. ”

The King's voice was full of weakness, his mouth was full of wine, he had drunk too much, and the man was out of control: "Rhaegar took my beloved fiancée, your sister, he had Lyanna Stark, and I was rewarded with victory by Cersei, which is not what I wanted. The king threw the glass on the ground, kicked it away, unscrewed the cork of the bottle, and drank the bottle in a big gulp, and drank it all in one go.

It's time to tell Lau Lannister that he's going to murder him, and although there is no evidence, it's time to speak out......

"Robert, I have something to talk to you about...... Very important thing......"

"Don't talk about it, Ned, my brother, I believe you outperform my two own brothers...... But you're still against me...... You're still as stubborn as before, and tomorrow I'm going to hunt in the Royal Forest, and you'll talk about it when I get back. ”

"Robert, I'll be gone when you get back from hunting, and you ordered me to return to Winterfell, have you forgotten?"

Robert stood up, his body shaking, he threw away the empty wine bottle, and held the bedpost with both hands to steady himself: "Ned, take it, it's your thing." He took a great deal of effort from the inner pocket of his cloak to pull out the heavy hand-shaped gold badge.

Robert drops the 'Hand of the King' badge on Ed's chest.

"Ned, anyway, you're my prime minister. This throne should have been yours sixteen years ago, and Jon was better suited than I was, but you two insisted on me because I killed Rhaeggar. Look at what has become of the country today, there is no longer a golden dragon in the treasury that is mine, it is all debt. Ned, my brother, put the badge on. I swear in the name of the Seven Gods and in honor of House Baratheon, and if you refuse, I will personally put this rotten thing on Jaime Lannister's chest. Whether you're going to be my Prime Minister or Jaime is going to be it, you decide. 2k reading network
