"You're not the first person trying to bring down Slint. After a moment of silence, the captain of the Mudgate guard spoke, "But do you know who is behind him?"

"King Robert. I also know that His Majesty likes him because he carries out orders when he receives them, does not ask or say anything, and never uses them as bragging capital afterwards, right? ”

"It seems that you have made some understanding, now that you know, what gave you the confidence to engage in Slint?" Captain Baivat shook his head: "You might as well buy the murderer and kill him, clean and neat, leaving no hidden dangers." ”

The assassination of the commander of the King's Landing garrison was a serious matter, and if Robert was angry and could turn King's Landing upside down, this was a last resort that could only be used when it was absolutely necessary, and Egg was not forced to that extent. Instead of answering, he answered the previous question: "The confidence is that we are not trying to frame Slint, who himself is hopelessly dirty." Just like Robert himself, this is probably the upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked, the night watchman paused: "At the same time, we have a fair and strict Prime Minister, and I happen to be the swordsman of his daughter Arya Stark." ”

"Don't think that this is a big deal, the former Prime Minister Jon Arryn is also fair and strict, he had tried to remove Slint from his post a year earlier, and he had found two soldiers of the garrison who were willing to testify against him, but both of them died in accidents shortly after. After a while, even Jon Arryn himself died. Baivat disagreed, "Although everyone now believes that Lyssa poisoned him, who knows the real situation." Slint doesn't have much ability, but when it comes to ruthlessness, we're not as good as him. ”

"This time the situation is different, Jon Arryn wanted to get rid of Slint in the first place, he was in the light, Slint was in the dark, and it would fall short if the news leaked. And this time, we are in the dark, and Slint is in the light. With a confident smile, Egger turned on the flickering mode: "My partner, Tyrion Lannister, has gone to talk to the major forces in King's Landing, Count Gales Rosby, Count Bookwell of Fort Antlers, and the son of Count Lake in King's Landing...... When the royal lords and nobles, as well as the merchants and shopkeepers they support, will soon all join in, do you think Slynt has the ability to kill all these people?"

"Oh, if what you say is true, then I really believe you are prepared, but how do I know that you are not bluffing me into charging you?"

"I'm here to see Sir Biowatt, but I don't want you to take the lead, we'll start building momentum and exposing it first, all you have to do is to have Prime Minister Ed start an investigation, and then you can stand up and testify, or let any of your soldiers testify, if you don't see a good situation, you can pretend that this meeting didn't happen, how about that?"

"Lord Egger is so straightforward, I'll give you a cheerful answer - it's okay to help with this, but my condition is very simple, for the safety of myself and my brothers, I will never come forward before I see the signs of the big guys you said, but on the other hand, once I see that those allies of yours are indeed moving, I will not hesitate to cooperate fully, so how about that?"

"Good. Iger smiled, and when he went to the next officer of the garrison, he could boldly say that Sir Baivat had agreed to join the group: "We may now talk about what kind of material evidence we can give us in this struggle, brethren of the garrison." ”

......

As the conversation ticked on, and the conversation continued until the moon rose and he was shoulder-to-shoulder with the Scarlet Comet, Iger eventually found himself accomplishing much more than he had expected. The problems in Slint are far more than what he knew before, and the means and methods of this person's wealth collection have been arrogant to a jaw-dropping degree.

Tyrion has said that half of the garrison of King's Landing has been created or installed by the king's lords and the various powers of King's Landing, and this is confirmed by Ser Biowatt. Except for the half of the officers who had backers, and a few people like Sir Baiwatt who were personally promoted by Robert because of their military exploits, every other officer, from the various detachment captains of the Seven Great City Gates to the small captains who led a few people, were all bought by Genos Slint with money!

"If it's just buying and selling positions in the garrison, that's fine, and the disgusting part is that the brethren who have received the position from Slint must not only pay a benefit fee at the beginning, but also give half of the officer's salary each month to Slint after the deal is completed. Baivat looked gritted his teeth: "In this way, the salary of the officer is not much higher than that of ordinary people, and many excellent young men have left because of this, and in a few years, the King's Landing garrison is no longer like an army, but like his Jenos Slint's personal pig farm, except for those who have backers and those personally promoted by His Majesty the King, all that is left is the meat pigs he raises, which can be slaughtered once a month!"

The Baratheon dynasty has only been established for more than ten years, and the armed forces of the national capital have been corrupted to such an extent, just such a person, Robert actually said that the next one may be worse. What kind of governance can a ridiculous ruler govern the country, Iger is now an eye-opener: "He is so reckless, the brothers in the garrison have not thought of resisting?"

"Who will organize?" Baivat smiled bitterly: "Slint is not stupid, he doesn't touch the half of the officers who have a background, and most of the rest are promoted after making deals with him." If he is overthrown, will the officers who are suspected of bribery and bribery also be implicated? In particular, he has also cultivated some henchmen-the soldiers and officers who served in the eastern camp of the garrison, he will not be embarrassed, and these two hundred, just because they can get a normal salary that will not be deducted, they are grateful and loyal to Slint, which is really sad. Also, the grapevine said that he also regularly gave gifts to the Minister of Justice, Lord Lan Li, so that Lan Li also turned a blind eye to what he did, so that he could stay away until now!"

It turns out that Lan Li and Slynt are also related...... Robert's own brother, as the Duke of Stormlands, said that he had accepted Slint's favors as the latter's umbrella Egger did not believe it, but Ranley Baratheon, like Margaery Tyrell, was a scheming fellow, and his code of conduct was to make more friends and offend fewer people, and every day he thought about how to show his kindness and personal charm to the outside world, and it was not bad for him to engage in diplomacy, and put him in the position of Minister of Justice, which was simply useless. Expecting Lan Li, a, to be able to deal with his brother's subordinates with an iron face and selflessness is tantamount to a fool's dream. As a result, Iger and Tyrion never thought of going through the line of the Minister of Justice to report normally, but decided to go directly to the Prime Minister, which now seems to be quite the right decision.

The armed forces and political and legal systems of the capital of the Seven Kingdoms are in such a chaotic situation, why is the Baratheon dynasty really worried, the night watchman sighed in his heart, and continued to ask: "Is there anything else?"

"Yes, since you already know about Slint, then you must know that this thing doesn't love his wife, and his wife's family has no background power, and he can't care about him who is now the commander of the garrison. An incomprehensible smile appeared on Sir Bywatt's face: "After giving birth to four children, he was disgusted with the wife who was already a yellow-faced woman, and instead bought houses in various places in King's Landing, and raised three young and beautiful girls, two of whom had already bore him illegitimate children. ”

......

If it weren't for the timely end of the counterinsurgency in the valley and his rush back to King's Landing, Nina might have been forced to become the fourth, Egg felt a little afraid in his heart, if there was no force to support her, how helpless the civilian girl would be in the face of the coercion and temptation of the commander of the garrison, he could imagine: "How can you be so clear about this kind of privacy, could it be that you have already investigated?"

"Privacy? Then it has to be hidden by Slint himself to call it privacy! This bastard is relying on the king as a backer and the minister of law to do nothing, unscrupulous, and does not hide it at all!" Baivat was annoyed when he thought about it, and said through gritted teeth: "Slint's methods of getting those three girls are disgraceful, but after he succeeded, he did not pull them out and deny people, but treated them as little wives." Not only did he regularly send his living expenses and pocket money, but he also often sent the soldiers of the garrison to 'his house' to help deliver daily necessities, move furniture, and clean up, and sometimes even go outside the city to help the girl's parents and brothers do farm work! Because I have a bad relationship with him, my brother near the river gate does the most dirty work, and he is showing off his might to me!"

"It's so arrogant, it's just right, we're going to bring him down, and the evidence can be found at hand, hehe...... Sir Beywart, could you please collect the names and addresses of Slint's three lovers and illegitimate children and give them to me to use?"

"Not at the moment, because I haven't done any of these jobs myself, only my brothers know about it. And once I start sorting out this information, my brothers will know that I am going to fight against Slint, and those who have become officers through Slint's channels are all over the garrison, and my subordinates are not exempt. Once the news leaks, it will be a big trouble, Slint this guy, but black and white are both black and white. Baivat shook his head: "I can only assure you that if the first minister really comes to investigate Slint, I can quickly hand over all the useful evidence to him." ”

I was careful enough, I didn't expect to meet someone more cautious than myself, Egger wanted to laugh a little, but he could understand, so he nodded: "That's fine, then we agreed like this?"

"I've always done what I said. Byvat tapped the table with the iron hand on his right arm, "But you and your friends, be careful these two days, Slint is crazy, it doesn't matter anything." ”

He and Tyrion reported directly to the Prime Minister, and Iger didn't believe that Eddard Stark would leak the whistleblower's information to Slint. Of course, just in case, he still took Jaqun with him: "Thank you for your concern, then, farewell, the operation will start in a day or two, and please take Sir to heart." ”

"Since I broke my hand, my memory is so good that I can't give it away!"
