Chapter 0163 - Dead and Alive
The town of the Earl of Harroway is just one street.
A rider in a golden cloak galloped down the street, the sound of horses' hooves raining down.
The knight came to the Earl's Castle and jumped down and ran into the hall as fast as he could.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Queen, Sir Sandor Cregan has captured the criminal Mikay. "The rider was out of breath and his voice was loud.
There was a commotion in the hall full of courtiers!
Many noble ladies gathered around Cersei, like stars holding the moon, comforting the 'sad Cersei' who couldn't see sadness at all.
Without waiting for the king and queen to respond, they rode fast horses to report.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Queen: The Duke of Ranly, Ser Barristan Sermi, the Captain of the Kingsguard, Ser Mandenmoor, the Kingsguard Sir Malintlan, and the Magistrate Ser Islingpine, with a hundred cavalry of King's Landing, have come to meet the King and Queen. ”
The king waved his hand, and without saying a word, he was in a terrible mood, and the two guards, who had kneeling on their knees, stood up and withdrew.
The sound of horses' hooves came galloping again, and a golden-robed man came to report.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Queen, Duke Eddard Stark found Miss Arya Stark in a wooded area on the other side of the river, and Duke Eddard and his guards were returning to the town with Miss Arya. ”
When the king heard this, his heart was relieved, and he drank all the wine in the golden cup in one gulp, and scolded: "What about him!"
The sound of horses' hooves pounded in the streets and reached the hall, and the hound, Sandor Cregan, returned with his red-cloaked guards.
The Magic Mountain stood among the courtiers, he was a head taller than everyone else, and everyone who came in noticed the stout 'giant'. Moshan felt a small worry in his heart, did the hound follow the previous trajectory of the world and cut down Mikay, or did he catch the living man because he shouted the words 'the pig killer and the dog raiser are the same'?
Magic Mountain actually hopes that the hound will let Mikay go.
went out to arrest someone, but if he didn't catch it, the kid escaped and disappeared, or the kid might have been washed away by the river because he crossed the river, and all kinds of accidents could happen.
But the hound was loyal and caught Mikay back!
After a while, the hound walked in with a freckled face, red hair, and a stinking boy. Cersei rose from her seat like a pressed spring and yelled at the hound, "Hound, I told you to slaughter him, what are you bringing him back for?"
The hound's face did not change, he took off his helmet and said, "Your Majesty, Michae said that he did not attack the prince. ”
"He hit me with a stick, sharpened stick!" said Joffrey, like a cat with his tail trampled. He had an expression of disbelief on his face, as if he was stunned by the butcher's son's lie, and couldn't believe that this lowly fellow dared to reverse black and white.
Mikay, the poor butcher's son, was trembling. He looked at his toes, which were unshoed and very dirty.
"Kill him, this lowly creature doesn't deserve to stand here!" a nobleman chirped.
"Drag this guy away, he stinks. I can't believe Miss Stark is hanging out with such a vulgar subordinate. A noble lady cried out in astonishment.
"Slaughter him, Hound Dog. It's a shitty thing full of lies, and I know it at a glance when I look at him. Some courtiers shouted.
The hound didn't slaughter Mikay on the spot, which gave Mikay a lease of life.
Moshan knew that what he shouted at the hound had a little effect, but it was the hound's own heart that really worked. This is a guy who has been blinded by plate armor and a sword. And the person who caused this blindness was the magic mountain itself!
Magic Mountain hopes to fix its past mistakes!
This correction is not prayer and repentance, but doing things. As for the result, leave it to the seven gods.
The world is in turmoil, the king is no longer the king, and the duke is no longer the duke. All the current rules and order are a kind of vanity of light and shadow before chaos is coming.
In the eyes of the Magic Mountain, King Robert Baratheon is already a dead man, Eddard Stark is already a dead man, and Prince Joffrey Baratheon is also a dead man, and many people in this hall are destined to die a bad death soon, including himself, of course. It's just that the butterfly of the Magic Mountain is trying to flap his wings, hoping to cause a butterfly effect that changes his fate.
In the face of a dead person, or a dead person, then what is there to be afraid of!
In the midst of the commotion, Cersei's voice became high and high-pitched: "Hound, I order you, kill him!"
"Immediately!right away!!! The corners of his mouth were raised, awe-inspiring and inviolable.
"Your Majesty the Queen!" "Demon Mountain's voice suddenly sounded, unhurried, but suppressed everyone's voices, "Duke Ed has found Miss Arya Stark, or wait for Miss Arya Stark to come and everyone testify, I believe in Prince Joffrey's honor and integrity, and those who dare to attack the prince should let them bow their heads and confess their sins in the face of the facts, and die convincingly!"
"Dog, there's no place for you to talk here!" Joffrey looked at the Magic Mountain with playful eyes, the corners of his mouth turned up, and his face sneered with disdain.
Cersei secretly tugged at Joffrey's shirt and signaled him not to speak in such a humiliating way to the Magic Mountain.
Cersei had already hit a soft nail in the Mountain, and when she ordered the Mountain to catch Eddard Stark this afternoon, the Mountain agreed, but remained unmoved.
This vicious god was a vicious dog raised by her father, Duke Tywin, not her Cersei. The Mountain is different from the Hound in that the Hound swears allegiance to her, and the Mountain swears allegiance to Duke Tywin. Even in the face of King Robert, the Magic Mountain never knelt. In front of his father, Duke Tywin, even more so.
What Cersei didn't know was that the magic mountain was already Duke Tywin's son-in-law, and the relationship with her was one step closer. Strictly speaking, the Magic Mountain belongs to Cersei's brother-in-law.
It's just that the Jenny Westerling family is in decline, and Duke Tywin only wants to subdue the Magic Mountain and the Westerling family, and does not inform Cersei and Jaime about his adoption of Jane and his marriage to the Magic Mountain.
In this world, the transmission of information is very backward. If the Duke of Tywin himself did not pass it on through the raven, the information itself would be closed and would take a considerable amount of time before it reached the ears of some people.
King Robert had to stand up and speak, his presence was very strong, but he really didn't want to talk to Cersei, and he felt disgusted when he talked to Cersei. Without his consent, Cersei summoned all the courtiers and deliberately set up a large battle to cause trouble, which King Robert did not want to see.
The king and Eddard Stark, those were brothers from childhood to adulthood, and the king's trust in Ed surpassed that of the king's two own brothers. He really just wants to make big things small, and small things into small things. But he was fortunate that his queen's wife wanted nothing more than to make things as big as possible, as if she hadn't worked hard enough along the way.
Things were made in front of the courtiers, and the dignity of Prince Joffrey and the inviolable honor of the royal family were also upheld by King Robert!
If it weren't for the political stability of the kingdom, Robert would have strangled Cersei to death long ago!
King Robert stood up and shouted, "No more noise, and when Duke Eddard Stark returns, I will personally ask Arya Stark about the situation." Those who violate the prince will inevitably be punished severely. But don't kill the child until the matter is clear. ”
Speaking of kindness in his heart, Magic Mountain knows that King Robert and Eddard Stark are all the way. Otherwise, two people would not be able to become each other's most trusted friends and brothers. The two of them grew up in the Eagle's Nest in the Valley of Duke Jon Arryn, became the two adopted sons of Jon Arryn, and received Jon Arryn's education, both of them are people of integrity, kindness and honor! It's just that for beautiful women, Robert's resistance is negative! This is his innate weakness! And Eddard, the weakness is that he doesn't know how to be flexible!
There was a rare quiet moment in the hall. But soon, a hearty and pleasant voice broke the oppressive silence, and Lan Libyla Theon and his party came. Duke Lanli is a likable man, and before anyone enters the house, laughter arrives first!
Magic Mountain sighed in his heart: Another person who is destined to die a tragic death is coming!
