Chapter Twenty-Four: Saving Duke Ed II

A slight "boom" sound rang out from the wooden crossbow, and the bolt flew through the crowd at high speed, striking Sir Ealing in the chest with precision.

Ser Ealing, who was not wearing armor and was dressed in black, struggled in vain and fell to the ground on his back.

"There are assassins!!" Seeing Sir Ealing's arrow falling, the stage suddenly became chaotic, and the sword in the golden robe was all drawn, and he watched the surrounding situation nervously, surrounded by a large number of patrolling soldiers.

On the side stage, the Kingsguard shouted and stood in front of a panicked Joffrey, for whom it was their duty to protect the king.

Seeing that there were soldiers in front of him, Joffrey calmed down a little and ordered loudly, "Kill that traitor quickly." ”

The movement was still a little close, and in the crowd, after Yu Lun shot the crossbow arrow, he quickly put the bow and crossbow back into his arms, pretending to be frightened.

"It's the people from the North, they've come to save Duke Eddard, run. ”

Yu Lun walked back and forth in the crowd, constantly shouting, and now he was not afraid of being discovered, the scene was so chaotic who could know who was shouting.

"Help!" "Run for your life!" Under Yu Lun's shout, the crowd became even more chaotic and ran into the distance, everyone thought that it was someone from the north who had come to save the traitor, and it would be easy to be injured if they continued to stay here.

This should be the end of the movement, Yulun thought to himself in the chaotic crowd, since he was done here, he would stay and see if Jazz needed help.

But Yoren soon found out that he couldn't help himself, he was being dragged outside by the fleeing crowd, struggling desperately for a while, but still couldn't resist the flow of people, and finally could only helplessly glance at Ed on the execution ground, and then I will leave it to you, Sir.

In the tunnel under the chaotic execution ground, Ma Shen, who was wearing a mask, faintly heard the noise coming from above, and knew that Youlun had successfully created chaos on it, and the success or failure was here, Ma Shen let out an angry shout, picked up the chisel and chiseled it to the stone slab above his head.

"Bang bang bang" under Ma Shen's desperate chiseling, the stone slab quickly shattered, revealing a hole, Ma Shen didn't dare to delay, put his hand on it and jumped hard, jumping out of the tunnel directly.

At this time, it didn't take a few seconds for the chaos to begin, the golden robes on the stage were walking around in a panic, Ma Shen jumped out of the tunnel and saw Ed on the stage at first sight, without waiting for the golden robe to react, his hand stretched out and grabbed Ed's back, like a cheetah, and jumped into the tunnel again after carrying Ed.

In the blink of an eye, the prisoners on the platform were snatched away by the people who came out of the ground, and many soldiers were a little at a loss, "That's a tunnel, chase it!!" After a golden-robed man reacted, he glanced at the place where Ma Shen had disappeared, shouted, and took the lead in jumping into the tunnel.

It's a pity that when they chased them out of the dark tunnel, Ma Shen had already run away with Ed and didn't know where to go.

Although it is not known where the man who snatched the traitor Ed had gone, according to the general direction of the tunnel, a large number of soldiers all chased in the direction of Ma Shen amid the angry roar of King Joffrey.

Hearing a large number of footsteps not far away, Ma Shen kept complaining in his heart, next time he had time, he should dig a few more forks in the road, so that they would chase them to death and not know which exit they escaped from, instead of chasing behind them all the time now.

"Hold on, Lord Eddard, and I'll be able to get you out in no time. Ma Shen raised his head to comfort Ed, who had not said a word on his back, and continued to run towards the place agreed with Yulun.

The rapid ringing of the bell bell was not as spaced as the previous bell of the Judgment, which was a reminder to everyone that an intruder had entered, and to ask the golden robes defending the city to close the gates immediately.

If you want to save Eddard, you must first solve two problems, the first is how to rescue Ed from a large number of golden robes, and the second is how to escape from King's Landing after being rescued.

The solution to the first problem is to dig tunnels, and as for the second problem, Ma Shen and Yu Lun have thought of a lot of ways, but they are not realistic or too risky.

Are you a fool to be a gatekeeper, and dare to let you go out after the city has issued a warning?

There are not enough people, why don't you say that you are looking for the dragon to fly out.

In the middle of the night, you carried Duke Ed down the city wall with a rope on his back?

Ma Shen has the impression that he can go directly from King's Landing to the docks through the cellar of the Red Keep, for example, Arya walks by, and the eunuch Varys also walks through the cellar when he greets an overseas dignitary, the only drawback is that the cellar is in the Red Keep, the enemy's base camp.

I really can't think of any good way to think about it, so in the end, I can only use the stupidest method, which is to find a place to hide in King's Landing, and the city gate of King's Landing will be closed for a day, and you can hide for a day, and you can hide for two days, then you can hide for two days, anyway, accompany the queen and them to consume, and then find a way to get out after the city gate opens.

Regardless of the hurried bell above his head, he rushed all the way along the retreat route that had been set up for a long time, and Ma Shen carried Ed to the destination quickly, during which he also encountered many pedestrians who did not go to see the trial, Ma Shen knew that his whereabouts would definitely not be able to be saved, and he did not want to stay.

"Let's go!" Yulun, who had already taken a shortcut and was waiting for his destination in a fit of breath, glanced at Ed on Ma Shen's shoulder, and hurriedly opened an iron fence in the corner.

Five minutes later, the soldiers followed Ma Shen's trail and broke into the fence, only to see some garbage heaps and a narrow dead alley, the flea nest crisscrossed the alley to perfectly hide Ma Shen's tracks.

Crossing some small alleys and low walls, Ma Shen took Ed and hid in the house he had bought during the Prime Minister's martial arts tournament, while Yuren continued to lay out the Ecstasy outside, confusing the eyes of his pursuers.

This place can hide for a while, Ma Shen breathed a sigh of relief for the time being, I believe that many people know that they are guarding Harrenhal, so no one can guess who robbed Duke Eddard, there are so many people and so many houses in King's Landing, let those golden robes find it slowly.

I almost saved the Stark family, Bran, Arya, Sansa, and now I have rescued Duke Eddard, what reward do you say the Stark family will give you, and you don't have high requirements, just give me Harrenhal, plus some gold dragon coins or something, if you are really embarrassed, you can add more, Ma Shen thought happily.

Oh, by the way, I don't know how Ed is doing now, how he is doing when he was imprisoned, Ma Shen asked Ed, who didn't have a sound at all, "Lord Eddard, how are you?"

Without hearing Ed's reply, Ma Shen called out twice, "Lord Eddar?" "Lord Eddar?"

Did you faint? Ma Shen took a look at Ed's condition and found that Ed's physical condition was far worse than he had imagined, with a large number of scars on his chest, which must have been severely beaten during captivity.

And also.. Ma Shen gently rolled up Ed's sleeve, and there was a cut on his wrist, and the tendons were broken.

It was more serious than the original book, probably because Queen Cersei did not have Sansa as a hostage, and Ed was certainly not going to violate his principles, abandon his honor, and submit to the Lannisters, so he was tortured.

Sighing, Ma Shen picked up the kettle and put it to Ed's mouth, there must be no water to drink in the prison, his lips are very dry.

However, the water was not drunk by Eddard, but instead mixed with some blood and flowed out of the corner of his mouth.

How can there be blood in the mouth?Is it Lannister trying to prevent Duke Ed from talking nonsense during the trial? Ma Shen was silent for a moment, and slowly opened Ed's mouth, and his tongue was cut out.

"Dog's Lannister!" Ma Shen cursed.
