King's Landing. Red Fort. Throne Room.

Forged from the swords of a thousand defeated generals, the Iron Throne is majestic and majestic, with outward-facing blades shaped like fans.

The Demon Mountain sat on the Iron Throne, his mighty temperament fused with the Throne's majestic and cold momentum.

There are no kings in the past who complement each other better than the Magic Mountain sitting on the Iron Throne.

On both sides of the throne hall, there were courtiers and generals.

At the foot of the seven steps of the throne stood seven Kingsguards, led by Baron Sven. He stood in the center, dressed in a white robe and with a long sword hanging from his waist. Beside him was Barristan Selmy, the former captain of the Kingsguard and the most famous of the Kingsguards.

Daenerys Targaryen, the original owner of the fearless Barristan, stood in the ranks of his courtiers: the right hand was honored.

Daenerys was flanked by the captain of her guard, Jorah Mormont from Bear Isle in the North, Missandro from the Unsullied of Slave Bay, and Missandei, a handmaiden who had been carefully trained by the good lord of Astapor. Missandro is Missandei's older brother.

In addition, Arrene Martell, Prince of Dorne, was surrounded by several knights of the family. The two Sand Snakes who were bewitched by the Three-Eyed Raven and followed the Three-Eyed Raven to Braavos had been beheaded by Arlene in Halberd City.

In addition to Her Majesty Prince Dorne and Queen Daenerys, among the heavyweights are Duke Eddard Stark and his vassals from the North.

Daenerys, Arlene, and Eddard Stark stood in the courtiers' positions, giving the hearts of the nobles of Riverlands a shock.

The Eddard Starks, who had become an independent nation, also surrendered to the Magic Mountain. Most of the nobles of Riverlands did not know about this news.

The nobles from the Bend Lands were guided by the captain of the royal guard, Bolon, to stand on the left side of the hall.

The courtiers and generals all stood opposite them on the right.

Queen Jane Westerling sat next to the throne of the Magic Mountain, and a high-backed chair covered with lion's skin was added to the throne.

The royal ministers all stood at the foot of the seven steps on the right, led by Prime Minister Jon Clinton.

Magic Mountain's gaze swept over the audience, and the audience was suddenly silent.

The Magic Mountain said, "My lords, I want to introduce you to one person first. Bron, please come in, Master Velas Tyrrell. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. Boronn replied with a bow.

Boron is a rough man, informal, bullying and arrogant, when he eats with the little devil, his words are rude, and he never respects the little devil. But in front of the Magic Mountain, he is knowledgeable and polite, just like a knight trained by nobles.

The nobles of the Riverbend looked at the gate together, only to see two golden-robed guards pushing a wheelchair in, and on the wheelchair, sat Velas Tyrell, dressed in black.

The nobles of the riverbends were silent.

Some nobles already knew that Velas Tyrell had become a night watchman. Many nobles had business, relatives, and channels in King's Landing.

Velas Tyrell's breath looked good, as if he hadn't suffered anything.

"My Excellency, I am guilty of a capital crime, and the Archbishop of the Great Sanctuary of Debel and Lord Eddard Stark have interceded with His Majesty, who spared my life and gave me the opportunity to garrison the Great Wall. From now on, Velas Tyrell is a Night's Watch and no longer the Duke of High Court. and no longer your lords. ”

The nobles of the Riverbend looked at each other, and no one spoke.

They knew why His Majesty had ordered them to come to King's Landing, and that there would be no more Tyrells in the reign of the Riverlands.

The Magic Mountain said: "My Excellency, Lord Velas Tyrell's rebellion is conclusive, and it is a capital crime, but with the Archbishop of the Great Sanctuary of Baylor, the Prime Minister, and the Duke of Stark in the North interceding for him, I pardon his capital crime. The legions of the Night's Watch on the Wall of Desperation are already under the direct jurisdiction of the royal family, and I have abolished the law that the Night's Watch does not marry wives, fiefs, or children, and the Night's Watch has the right to marry wives, have children, and have fiefs henceforth. Ordinary soldiers can also become nobles and obtain castles by accumulating military exploits. Soldiers or generals who have been stationed on the Great Wall for three years can apply to be transferred back to their hometowns or even discharged. However, there is one rule, the transfer and garrison of the soldiers of the Great Wall of Desperation, the power is completely in the hands of the military minister of the kingdom. ”

The Magic Mountain is the Minister of War of the Seven Kingdoms.

Most of the nobles of the Riverlands had heard for the first time that the Night's Watch had been abolished and re-established by His Majesty, and although they found it difficult to understand and surprised in their hearts, after all, it was a law that had not been changed for eight thousand years—the nobles of the Riverlands made eye contact with each other, bewildered, and inexplicably uneasy, but no one raised a word of objection.

For the garrison of the Great Wall of Desperation, the nobles of the southern riverlands almost never participated. In the thousands of years of history of fighting and dying with savages, it was the Stark family in the north that had the deepest experience. No matter how fierce the wildlings were, in the most out of control situation, only a small group of wildlings crossed the neck and entered the riverland to raid.

For 8,000 years, no wild man had ever been able to enter the king's territory to cause trouble, let alone invade the riverbend.

It's none of their business, for thousands of years, the nobles of the Riverbend have hardly ever cared about the garrison of the Great Wall.

The Magic Mountain looked at the nobles of the Riverbend: "If you want to see Lord Villas Tyrell in the future, you are free to go to the Great Wall of Desperation to see him. ”

Only a few nobles agreed in vain, and most remained silent.

Vilas Tyrell looked at Count Horace Redwin, the two were cousins. Velas's grandmother, Lady Olenna Redwin, was Horace Redwin's aunt.

Horace Redwin glanced at the Demon Mountain, he was afraid of the Demon Mountain, and he was terribly scared in his heart. But he still mustered up the courage and walked out of the queue and hugged Velas Tyrell: "Vilas, what do you need, tell me and I will prepare it for you." ”

"I don't lack anything, brother. I will get married, have children, and live a peaceful life on the Great Wall of Desperation, and my bride will be my original maid Meloti. ”

Horace was a little incredulous: "Vilas, Meloti has also arrived in King's Landing?"

"Yes, she's outside the door now. ”

"Congratulations, I'll send someone to see you at the Great Wall. ”

Horace is pampered, and he himself will never go to such a cold place as the Great Wall of Desperation.

"No, brother, we're in touch with Raven. Velas Tyrell said lightly. The Magic Mountain gave him his favorite dog and eagle, and a bride, and he was satisfied. Hassle-free

Although the Great Wall can only live underground, it is definitely a place where people can quietly read and write. With the king's supplies as a guarantee, there is no worry about food and clothing, and there will be no worries about no charcoal. The defenders of the Great Wall of Desperation now belong to the direct legions of the royal family, and their treatment far exceeds that of the nobles.

After saying goodbye to Count Horace Redwin, the only relative in the world, Velas Tyrell saluted His Majesty the King and Queen, thanked the Prime Minister and Lord Duke Eddard, and then wheelchair out of the throne hall, under the protection of a team of royal guards, got into a carriage, accompanied by his bride, dog, and eagle, and the group left the Red Keep and slowly set off towards the desperate Great Wall.

*

In the throne hall, the magic mountain looked at the nobles of the riverbend land, and said in a deep voice: "There are no more lords in the riverbend land, do you have a suitable candidate?"

The nobles looked at each other, but no one answered. If there was a different king, the nobles of the Riverlands would not be so timid.

"If you don't have one of your own, then I will nominate a man to be the lord of the Riverlands, and he is the young general Renard Westerling, the eldest son of the eldest son of the Earl of Gavin Westerling in Crag Rock, and his wife Sansa Stark of House Stark in the North, I don't think anyone is more suitable to be Lord of the Riverlands. Who among you has an opinion?"

There was silence in the hall, and everyone of the nobles of the riverbend had an opinion in their hearts, but no one spoke.

"You don't make a sound, are you cursing me in your heart for robbing the riverbend?" said the demon mountain slowly, his eyes showing a fierce light.

"Your Majesty, I support General Renard Westerling as Lord of the Riverlands. Count Horace Redwin stepped forward and said.

Because of the case of Prime Minister Metz, Magic Mountain found a father who was going to replace Horace for a death row prisoner, and saved Horace's father's life, Horace felt that at this critical moment, he had to behave.

"Count Horace, why do you support General Renard Westerling as Lord of the Riverlands?" said the Magic Mountain coldly.

Horace was stunned!

"I want to hear your truth, Count Horace. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. Renard is the elder brother of Her Majesty the Queen, and also the elder brother of Her Majesty the King, and soon after the rebellion of Velas Tyrell in the Bendlands, he changed to anyone else as the lord, I am afraid that His Majesty will not be able to rest assured, only General Renard Westerling is in charge of the Bendlands, so that His Majesty can rest assured that the nobles of the Bend Lands will not worry about someone rebelling again. ”

Demon Mountain stared at Horace's pale little face, and he nodded, "You are a man who understands, Lord Horace. ”

Horace perked up his spirits: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Queen, Sansa Stark, the wife of General Renard, is the daughter of the Duke of the North, a lady of a famous family, and she is worthy of the status of Lady of Riverlands. ”

This sentence is actually a bit powerful, in case anyone disagrees, the power of Sansa Stark's family should not be underestimated. Master Eddard Stark is notoriously upright and fearless.

Magic Mountain's gaze slowly swept over the nobles of the Riverlands: "Ladies and gentlemen, the words of Earl Horace Redwyn are my heart's words, which is why I think Renard Westerling and Sansa Stark are worthy of the territory of the Riverlands, if there is anything that Renard and Lady Sansa do not do well, you can directly report to the royal family, and I will deal with it personally." If Renard loses in private, I will never bypass him, and I will definitely give you justice. ”

The nobles of the Riverbend Land are all worried in their hearts, and the Demon Mountain will not even bypass Reynard, if they want to make any calculations, don't think that His Majesty the King can easily let them go.

"Your Majesty, Red Lake City has supported General Renard Westerling and Lady Sansa in High Court City. Earl Clenn exclaimed.

This is the first one to come out and express support with confidence.

Then there are the Chesta families of Green Shield Island in the Shield Islands, the Green family of Grey Shield Island, the Hewitt family of Oak Shield Island, and the Celestial family of South Shield Island - the four families came together to support Renard Westerling as Lord of Riverlands.

Eventually, all of the Riverlands nobles expressed their support for Renard Westerling and Sansa Stark to move into High Court City and become the new lords of Riverlands.

Only Earl Leighton Hightower of Old Town remained silent, neither in support nor against it. His expression was grim, and he did not avoid staring at the magic mountain, which made the faces of the ladies beside him turn white with fright, and their lips were purple.

The Magic Mountain said, "Lord Leighton Hightower, you are not convinced by Sir Renard Westerling?"

"Your Majesty, Renard is young, and his exploits in the civil war are not significant, and I cannot obey him. ”

"Then you surrender to my orders?"

Leighton Hightower knelt down on one knee: "Your Majesty, the minister swears allegiance to Your Majesty, and the Hightower family will never betray." ”

"Very well, then carry out the order, I want you to assist Renard Westerling in rebuilding the High Court, and you will be the director of High Court City in my place. If Renard is wrong, directly persuade or propose changes, Renard can only report to me, and cannot directly punish you with the power of the lord. ”

Count Leighton Hightower was speechless.

"Why, you don't want to?" said Demon Mountain in a deep voice.

Leighton Hightower's wife, Leia Florent, fell to her knees in fright: "Your Majesty, the Hightower family obeys. I will definitely do my best to assist General Renard in rebuilding the High Court and assist Lord Renard in handling government affairs. ”

"Lady Rhea, you are Lady Sansa's guide, teach her, and work with Lady Sansa to assist General Renard in dealing with the government, military affairs, and trade of the Riverlands, and to fairly settle disputes among the nobles of the Riverlands. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. The ministers will do their best to assist General Renard and Lady Sansa in rebuilding the High Court and administering the Riverlands. "Madame Réa Florent's head almost touched the ground.

"Get up, ma'am. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. ”

"Count Leighton, you also get up. ”

Count Leighton Hightower stood up silently, he was a figure who was unwilling to even go down to the Tower of Heaven, but he did not expect to be appointed by His Majesty the King as the director of High Court City in the blink of an eye. He was unwilling in his heart, but he did not dare to disobey. Dare to complain but dare not speak.

The king of the Magic Mountain, unlike other kings, is decisive in killing, or has a brutal and terrifying side, it is best not to disobey him, especially in this throne hall, in front of so many courtiers and generals.

"Count Horace, you are the first to stand up for Renard Westerling as Lord of the Riverlands, and I will reward the Redwyn family with a large fief and a large sea area. ”

Earl Horace Redwin was overjoyed, but the hearts of the nobles of the Riverlands sank, and everyone became uneasy. Count Leighton Hightower was also panicked, the old town and Qingting Island are the closest, could it be that His Majesty the King wants to divide part of the sea area and territory of the old town to the Redwin family on Qingting Island?

Although there are disputes among the nobles of the Riverbend, every inch of territory has been clarified, whose territory is it that His Majesty wants to assign to the Redwin family?

The next moment, when the words of the Magic Mountain came out, everyone of the nobles was surprised, but they breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.
