"Your Excellency is awake!"

"Your Excellency, you're finally awake!"

"Pain..... Pain..... This was the first thing Jones felt when he woke up, grinning in pain even when he raised his arm.

As soon as Jones opened his eyes, he saw his two maids, Na and Jane, looking at him with red eyes, Bachelor Coben standing behind them, and Carter, Ronna, Bald and others in the back, these captains also looked extremely tired on their faces.

Soon Jones was surrounded by a crowd of people at his bedside, as if everyone had a bunch to say to him, and the women were mainly complaining and crying, and the men were looking at him anxiously.

......

Jones knew through the maid's words that he was seriously injured and had been asleep for six days, and that there was nothing useful about it, so he comforted him and sent all three women and a girl away.

During this time, Jones deliberately observed the expression of the noble lady Ravenna, her concern was not disguised, and there was no lack of fear, and Jones initially ruled out suspicion of this noble lady.

If she did participate in the rebellion of the Knights of the Riverlands, it would have been wise to kill herself while she was unconscious or flee for her life.

When the woman is gone,

Carter and several other captains stepped forward in unison, as if they were guilty, they all lowered their heads, and no one spoke for a while.

"I'm not dead yet, don't mourn for me," Jones said with some tears and laughter, "Carter, you come and make things clear, starting with when I left Lava City to go to the witch." ”

Carter nodded, pondered for a moment, and recalled,

"After the adults left in the early hours of the morning, we continued to patrol and train as usual, so many people in the city did not know that the adults had left the city...... However, my lord, you haven't come back that night, and many brothers who know the inside story have begun to get anxious, after all, the witch's hill is not too far away, and in the early morning of the next day, the mercenary Duck who went with you found us, saying that the adult was captured by the witch...... Uh, trapped"

"So I led the army forward, but when we reached the Witch's Hill, we didn't see a single figure, so we searched for a long time in the vicinity, until we met another mercenary who had gone with us, and we knew that we had returned......"

......

"What a coincidence," Jones said helplessly, Carter and the others were not wrong, not even the ducks, but he still didn't understand why the Westlanders knew when and where they were going, and could find themselves so accurately......

"It's a coincidence," Carter said, pausing for a moment, and then added,

"And when we came back, we happened to see the army of the West attacking the city, and the people of the West broke up when they saw us rushing up from the rear, and in the next battle, their performance was even worse, and under the front and rear attacks, only a small number of the people of the West escaped...... In the past few days when the adults have been unconscious, we have chased and killed some more, and there should be very few people who have escaped in the end!"

This is the only thing to be happy about, the loss of thousands of cavalry is not small, enough to make the entire counts and dukes of Westeros look sideways again.

......

"What about the rebel knights?" Jones vaguely remembered not killing Sir Barry at the time.

"Those who survived were all locked up in the castle, and I also entertained this group of traitors during this time," even with Carter's calmness, when it comes to this group of people, they are gritting their teeth and eager to choose people to eat, if it weren't for Jones's interrogation, I suspect that these people would have been hung on the wall long ago.

Carter said with some disappointment, "But I didn't get much information, I just know that they have been in contact with Duke Tywin for a long time, and they don't seem to know anything about the actions of the Western Army." ”

"Time is still not right," Jones thought for a moment and whispered to himself, in fact, even if Barry and the thieves knew their destination, they would not be able to let the Western Army intercept them, not to mention that these people did not know,

"It doesn't look like it's that simple......"

"You're going to help me sneak a look at these guys...... Well, I'm not suspicious of them, I just have to rule them out," Jones finally commanded Carter.

He was most suspicious of his young bachelor now, but the torture of the bachelor was a real notoriety, and Jones wouldn't do it.

......

After Carter left, only the bachelors were left in the house.

This old guy was different from the others, who looked like they had a lot to say when they saw Jones wake up, while Cobain looked bored and wanted to leave.

Of course, Coburn should have contributed a lot to survive such a serious injury this time, Jones thought in his heart.

"Thanks to you this time," Jones took the initiative, "I wonder when I'll be cured?"

"Don't thank me too much," Cobain shook his head, saying something that surprised Jones, "Your injuries aren't healed by me." ”

"What? Who else could it be?"

"When you came back, you had lost a lot of blood, your internal organs were broken, and your bones were broken, I don't know how many...... You couldn't wake up and didn't even have the chance to ask if you could use the dark arts, and I was ready to give up by then...... However, I was upset when a few women were crying, so I looked around and happened to see something on you, and guess what I found?"

Jones didn't follow Cobain's words, but began to recall what he had brought back from the witch, some parchment, a few small bottles......

"Green spring water!" Cobain said with some excitement, "this is an extremely precious thing, and I suspect that no one in the whole of Westeros will know about it except for the Green Man (the Children of the Forest) and me, but it is a real fountain of life, and I even read in an ancient book that the Green Man had to drink the Green Spring Water before becoming a Green Prophet......"

"I don't know where you got it, but it did save your life, but it wasn't enough to heal you, so I estimate it will take at least half a year for you to get your injuries back to fighting on horseback." ”

"Half a year?" Jones was a little incredulous, this was really bad news for him in the West, the King's Territory, and the confluence of the Riverlands.

......

Cobain was right, and after that, Jones's recovery was really slow.

Now the news that the Black Knight has been deposed has spread, some say that he has become lame, some say that his sword-wielding hand has been broken, and these are the fatal wounds of destroying a warrior in Westeros, which has a low level of medical care.

The people of Lava City are very worried about this, and the language of the merchants and mercenaries is not so friendly, and the weak black knights are happy to meet them.
