Chapter 214: Anecdote of King's Landing (5)

Lynn narrowed her eyes and looked at the knight in front of her in a suit of silver-white armor.

This person, although he has white hair, still looks strong and elegant, he has a pair of blue eyes, and his figure is not rickety because of old age, he is still tall.

A hint of surprise flashed in Lynn's eyes.

"Let me kiss the back of your hand, child," Barristan Selmy began, kneeling down on one knee again, and as he spoke, he stretched out his mottled and rough right hand in front of Lynn.

Kissing the back of the hand is a form of respect for people, and kneeling and kissing the back of the hand represents the relationship of protection.

Lynn didn't refuse, slowly stretched out his hand and asked, "You are so kind, your honor is spread in the Seven Kingdoms, but I heard that you were stripped of your position as the King's Guard by that little devil-headed king Joffrey, and I thought you had returned to your hometown." ”

This person is known as Lao Ba's former Imperial Guard, and Lynn has indeed heard of it, whether it is in the dramas of his previous life or in the stories of this life, his reputation is quite outstanding.

Sir Barristan was the eldest son of Count Leonor Selmy of the Harvest Hall. As a child, he was Sir Manford Swain's attendant. At the age of ten, Barristan became a mysterious knight with the help of donated armor and participated in jousting tournaments in Black Harbor.

While others laughed at Barristan, Prince Duncan Targaryen took pity on him.

In the jousting tournament, no one challenged Prince Duncan, except for Barristan, for which Prince Duncan gave him the title of "fearless".

At the age of sixteen, he was knighted by King Aegon V after an anonymous attempt to defeat Prince Duncan the Short and Sir Duncan the Tall, the captain of the Kingsguard, at the Winter Tournament in King's Landing.

Later, he became a member of the Kingsguard, and guarded a total of three Iron Throne kings.

After Barristan was old, he remained a formidable warrior.

At the age of fifty-seven, Selmy still won the King's Landing tournament and knocked the hound Sandor Clegane off his horse in a charge.

However, in the plot he should have gone to Essos.

Stripped of his title of Kingsguard, Selmy felt that Joffrey was not a worthy king, and he began to search for the true king, and then swore allegiance to him.

This thought led Sermi to eventually sail across the Narrow Sea to Pantos to get close to Daenerys Targaryen, the last descendant of Aerys II.

Lao Ba respectfully kissed the back of Lynn's hand, "No, I should thank you for showing up, if I hadn't heard of your glorious deeds in King's Landing, I would have almost left my hometown for Essos, the girl who went to the Targaryen family, my lord."

Now I sincerely thank the gods for having me dismissed. Lately, I've been reassessing my journey as Robert's Captain of the Kingsguard, as well as Joffrey's Kingsguard, over the years, and in the end, I think I can't forgive myself for doing an extremely bad job of serving these two kings. Joffrey is not worthy of the Iron Throne, and Robert is only a good knight, but a bad king, and now that I have finally waited for your appearance, I have been deeply moved by your deeds in the Twin Cities and outside the Great Wall.

And I know your father, Viscount Rothschild, who doesn't know each other very well, but he is a man of integrity. ”

After listening to Lao Ba's narration, Lynn suddenly realized that at the same time, he was surprised that he had unknowingly had such a reputation in the Seven Kingdoms, and was so highly praised by these old knights.

Of course, Lynn also understands that if he can win over a strongman like Lao Ba, Milan must also contribute a lot.

Hearing Lao Ba talk about his father, Lynn said with regret: "He passed away two years ago. ”

"Yes, I remembered, kid. Night will eventually fall on everyone, just a little sooner for some. You can relate to this better than most, poor boy. I understand that you are very sad, and we all feel sorry for your loved ones who have passed away. Now your deeds are being sung everywhere in King's Landing, it is said that you have been taking over the lord for more than a year, from the lord of a fishing village to the guardian of the north today, and most of the lords of the north seem to be willing to support you, Luce Bolton the Skinner has been defeated by you, but the bastard son of the skinner family is now in a high position, and has become the Chancellor of the Seven Kingdoms, look at the current King's Landing, it is so ridiculous, I really look forward to you sitting on the Iron Throne as soon as possible. ”

Lynn glanced at Milan, Lao Ba was really an upright and friendly elder, but Lynn didn't want to listen to him continue to nag now.

Milan replied to Lynn with his mouth on the sidelines, "I believe that Lord Lynn will ascend to the Iron Throne sooner or later, and return the continent of Westeros to justice and integrity, but for now, we will help Lord Lynn solve the matter at hand." ”

"I can't wait to prepare for the robbery, I used to be in charge of leading the guards, and I know more than anyone how the Kingsguard is on duty. Lao Ba continued.

At this time, the impatient Brienne stood up, and she scoffed,

"That's right, you're the former captain of the Kingsguard. Do you know how the guards guarded, how they lined up, how they held their swords, and you came to the conclusion that with the help of the thirty of us, we could break through the guards and hijack the law field!?" Brienne scratched her nose. He continued, "In my opinion, tomorrow's judgment must be held in public, and those who are judged before the gates of the Holy See have the right to be judged by knightly duels, and only I need to go to fight for that Miss Stark, and the matter is actually very well settled. ”

The classical knight Lao Ba puffed up his old and strong chest, "Why, you look down on me? ”

"Of course, no one doubts Sir Selmy's strength, but Brienne is also a brave and clever knight," Milan said with a smile, looking at Lynn, "What do you think, sir?"

"Britney's bravery is unquestionable," Lynn said bluntly, "but it's hard to be clever in a battle of judgment on someone else's turf." ”

Brienne snorted.

Then I heard Lynn continue: "However, she is right, it is not realistic for us to go to the execution ground, not to mention, there will be no so-called trial tomorrow, and of course there will be no sentence and execution at the entrance of Baylor Church." ”

Everyone looked at Lynn in confusion, what did it mean that there would be no verdict tomorrow? Some wondered if Miss Stark had escaped from the Red Keep, or had she simply been tortured to death?

And many more don't care if a Stark lives or dies, they only come here because of obedience.

Lynn didn't explain anything, he looked at everyone and said in a deep voice: "Anyway, I asked Milan Taylor to gather everyone here tonight, and make other arrangements. I need you to find the Alchemist's Guild Hall, which is said to be beneath the Rhaenys Hills, along the Silent Nuns Street to the Visennian Hills. There's wildfire made and stored by the alchemists, and I need you to find these things, and the Red Keep will be strengthened tonight, and it will definitely be manned elsewhere, and there must be weak guards. ”
