Chapter 19 Prime Minister
The people of Bear Island had guessed that Evan might train Lyanna to be the next leader. But no one thought it would come so quickly!
After the second day of his conversation with Lyanna, Evan slowly handed over his power in the north for the past few years to her.
Since Evan will always bring Lyanna with her on business, and she herself has been able to stand alone under Aivan's cultivation in the past two years. There is a certain prestige among the various powers in the north. Even if she was only nine years old, no one would dare to despise her!
You must know that when Evan inherited the leader of Bear Island, he was also nine years old, and in the process of swearing allegiance on the first day, he deprived him of the titles of two nobles who tried to find fault with him. Lyanna was cultivated by Aven, and no one doubted that she had the same courage!
The handover went smoothly, and Evan left Bear Island on the fifth day after receiving the message from Winterfell. The one who left took with him twenty guards, as well as the Icewolf, who had been with him for five years. His name was Ammon.
I remember that when he was first sent to Bear Island by the night watchmen, he didn't even have any teeth, and he was very small. Standing beside Evan now, he was already the size of a pony. He was an adult, and he was able to pick up the emaciated Evan and run wildly.
It's just that Evan has always been reluctant to sit on it, and for Evan he is his relative in this life. Sometimes it's easier to deal with animals than with people.
After receiving Ed's letter, Evan was delayed on Bear Island for five days and on the road for another four days. When Evan arrives in Winterfell, he discovers that Robert has been in Winterfell for seven days.
The inconvenience of communication prevented Evan from finding out exactly when Robert had arrived in Winterfell. It was seven days late, which was beyond Aven's expectations. Suddenly, he had a bad premonition about this winter trip.
Evan was greeted by Robb, who tried to hide his sadness: "Aven, you're here! ”
"Robb, look sad on your face, the atmosphere in Winterfell is weird, what the hell is going on?"
Robb spoke: "This was two days ago, when my father and I went hunting in the forest, and without Bran, he may have sulked, and went to climb the castle alone and fell down, and is still unconscious. ”
Evan has had a huge butterfly effect on the entire North, affecting too many people and things. But Bran still fell. How did he fall? Evan didn't know.
Did Bran see James and Cersei cheating on him and be pushed down like in the original book, or for some other reason. Evan didn't want to pursue it, because it was predestined.
As the next three-eyed crow, the Green Prophet, Bran has the ability to peer into the heavens and the earth. This is already in the realm of magic, and Evan doesn't want to provoke it, and he doesn't dare to provoke it. He knew that even if he stopped the first time, there would be a second time, a third time. The power of the Green Prophet is terrifying. Legend has it that the Neck and Dorne Arm were created by his magic.
Ai Wen hurriedly spoke: "Robb, I'm sorry to hear this!" Bran just fell into a coma, he will definitely wake up, don't worry too much, I'm sure Bran doesn't want to see your expression when he wakes up! ”
Robb said, "I'm fine, I'll be fine in a while." Don't say it, when the king heard that you were coming, let me take you to him, don't let him wait! ”
Evan arranged for the guards to follow them, and Robert himself followed Robert into the castle. After a while, the two came to a room, and next to Robert was the Kingsguard James Lannister, and next to a few guards whom Evan didn't recognize.
Ai Wen knelt on one knee: "Your Majesty! ”
Robert's voice was loud: "Get up, you are the miracle worker of the Seven Kingdoms, Evan Mormont!" ”
Evan stood up and looked at Robert with a determined gaze: "Your Majesty, it's me. ”
Robert said, "I've always been rumored that you're thin, but I don't believe it. When I saw you this time, I didn't expect the rumors to be true, you are quite tall, but you look pale and sick. ”
Evan replied, "Your Majesty, I have been like this since I was a child, and several scholars have seen it. It's a matter of constitution! ”
Robert was not at home with Avenla, and said with a serious face: "I heard that your dream is to become the prime minister?" ”
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Robert spoke, "To be honest, it's more than enough to govern the Seven Realms according to your talents. But your physique worries me, and I don't want the prime minister to be gone all of a sudden. ”
Ai Wen's heart sank suddenly, and he replied, "Your Majesty, my physique is enough for me to last for more than ten years. ”
Robert said, "Even so, it bothers me. ”
It was only then that Evan realized that it was clear that Robert did not intend to make him Prime Minister. If Robert intended to make him Prime Minister, all he needed was a letter to get him to King's Landing. And the only one who can make Robert stoop to the North is his old iron Eddard Stark.
They drank together, carried guns together, and prostituted together. He didn't trust Aven, a rumored genius, at all. The only person he trusted was Eddard Stark. And judging from the current situation, Eddard Stark has clearly promised Robert!
There are two paths in front of Aven, Annoyed and angry, Robert tears his face and starts a trade war. But causing turmoil in the Seven Realms and weakening the strength of the human race was not what he wanted to see at all. For Aven, dignity is worthless, and he just wants to be able to get the job done.
Then there is only one way left: "Your Majesty, if you are worried about my physique. I hope you will choose Lord Eddard as Prime Minister, and I am willing to travel to King's Landing to advise Master Stark. We, the Mormont family, have sworn allegiance to Lord Eddard! ”
Robert thought that the young and vigorous Evan would be angry, but he didn't expect him to think so comprehensively. Perfectly suited to their own arrangement. In this way, neither can Lao Tie Ed become the prime minister, nor does he have to be an enemy of Aven. Truth be told, Robert had asked the scholar what would happen if Aven and he were enemies of the Seven Realms. That answer frightened me.
To be honest, if this time Evan leaves angrily. Robert certainly wouldn't let Evan go easily. Although he will not kill Aven, he will definitely be placed under house arrest.
Robert spoke, "Aven, you're very thoughtful. By the time King's Landing has gotten used to the local environment, you've stabilized. In a few years, Ed will be old, and you will be the next Prime Minister! It's up to you to help my children! ”
Hit a stick to give a sweet date, standard political means. Robert drew a pie for himself. promised to become the prime minister in the future, but he guessed wrong, his ideal was not to become the prime minister at all, and Evan had only one purpose from beginning to end. Destroy the Strangers!
However, Ai Wen still pretended to be obedient: "Your Majesty, thank you for your trust, I will definitely make the whole country extremely prosperous, and I will definitely live up to your expectations!" ”
Robert was pleased with Aven's performance: "You're doing really well, I'm starting to like you little guy." There's a banquet tonight, so let's join us! ”
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Evan looked at Robert with a smile, but a chill was already in his heart. At this time, no one knew what Evan was thinking.
