Early in the morning, far fewer people leave the city than enter, but the streets inside the riverside gate wall are just as tightly crowded. Most people are not preparing to go out, but are watching the grand occasion of "dog eats dog".

When a large number of soldiers arrived last night, it really frightened the inhabitants of this area, but the two sides did not fight after the night, and by the dawn the crowd had become completely emboldened. Upstairs and downstairs, inside and outside the house, people from near and far stared at the outside of the Linhemen barracks, watching how this play should end.

Life is so hard, this kind of excitement, if you don't make up, you will regret it for a lifetime.

......

"It's dawn, brothers waiting outside, the opening time set by His Majesty the King is important after all, I will send someone to open the door first, and when the streets are empty, I will send the prisoners of our commander's order to the Red Fort!" Baivat had already taken a nap in the sentry tower, and in high spirits climbed the wall to appear again, announcing in a loud voice to the outside of the wall, and without consulting the people outside or waiting for a reply, he ordered the door to be opened.

After staying up in the middle of the night, the soldiers of the various battalions who had been ordered to come outside the barracks had long since lost the state they had first arrived, and they were standing or squatting or holding spears around the Linhemen barracks, watching the barracks door open a crack, and a group of more than 20 people trotted out of the camp, and the door was closed again.

There was no fight in the middle of the night, and now that there are onlookers at dawn, it is even more unlikely that there will be a conflict. No one, including Slint, thought of taking advantage of the gap between the doors to break in, and there was no doubt that Egger might have slipped through the band...... They just raised their heads numbly, and watched the group of colleagues who had left the barracks trotting under the thick and huge riverside gate, and you carried me to carry the clear division of labor and skillfully work up and down for a while—after a delay of about half an hour, the riverside gate, which had the heaviest task in the city, finally slowly opened inward.

The procession rushing in and out of the city moved in response, and the moment of opening the door every day was often the moment of the greatest pressure to maintain order, and the soldiers who had opened the door had already stood at their posts, relying on their bodies to divide the left and right entrances and exits, ready to start the day's gatekeeping work.

The long queue out of the city moved, but the flow of people who flocked into the city did not appear as immediately as usual, and it was dozens of black-clothed men guarding a carriage that led the way into the city, and the rest, whether it was the crowd or the carriage, followed it from a distance as if they were avoiding the plague, and no one dared to surpass it.

Slint took a look at it and then fell asleep, and stood up with some joy: after a long and difficult night, the turning point was finally coming? If the Night's Watch dared to send someone to make trouble and try to save Egger, then he would be able to take them down without even making up the charges. If this kind of thing happens on this sensitive day, the hat of mobilizing private soldiers to rebel is buttoned up, and it really can't be taken off!

......

"Damn, it's a big show. ”

The night watchmen who had only arrived in King's Landing last night had no idea what was going on, and Domi looked at the large pile of garrison soldiers behind the door densely blocked outside the barracks at the riverside gate, their golden robes shining brightly in the light of the rising sun, and the visual effect of the gathering was quite shocking: "Are these all gatekeepers? The defenders of this gate alone are comparable to the brothers of the entire Great Wall, worthy of being the capital of the Seven Kingdoms." ”

Alyssa Thorne frowned in confusion, as the defender of King's Landing at the time of the Retainer War, of course he knew the composition of the King's Landing garrison, it was normal for Rivergate to be crowded, but even in wartime, it would never be so exaggerated. Could it be that after leaving for more than ten years, the golden robe has been massively expanded in peacetime?

Unable to give an answer, he had to shake his head: "Don't worry so much, it's the right thing to send the ghouls to the Red Fort as soon as possible." ”

"Hey, they're coming, could it be that the king knows we're coming, and came to greet them?"

But the team of golden robes blocked the way, and directly showed their weapons, and dozens of spears were aimed at the ghoul escort team: "Stop!"

The members of the ghoul escort team were all night watchmen who had experienced real battles, and when they saw this, they did not hesitate to draw their swords against each other, and the city gate that was finally opened was suddenly blocked by the new confrontation between the two sides. Alyssa Thorne scanned the crowd opposite with her sword, saw the faces of her acquaintances, and sneered: "Ho, Lord Genos Slint, what a battle, the garrison stopped us, I don't know what it means?"

"Ser Elisha?" Slint walked out of the crowd with a confused look on his face, realizing that he had stopped the wrong person. At the end of the War, he and Alyssa were officers of the garrison, and when Tywin Lannister tricked him into entering King's Landing, he surrendered and Elisha resisted—so he later became the commander of the garrison while the other party was dressed in black. is both an old acquaintance and such a relationship, and it is really difficult for him to be tough in the face of Elisha: "What are you doing here." ”

"We're escorting the ghouls to your majesty. The head of the Black Castle replied unhappily, "What, does this violate any law of the Seven Kingdoms?"

"Of course not. "What are the ghouls?" Slint glanced at the cage, "But I wonder what Ser Alyssa is with Tyrion Lannister?"

"We met by chance, the door opened so late, and we met in line. The dwarf looked up and smiled, "Lord Slint ordered the Night's Watch office to be relocated, and I didn't bring someone here to carry it out." ”

"Why don't you go through the King's Gate when you move? Besides, do you need so many people?" Slint coldly glanced at the many black-clothed people following behind the carriage, relying on the difference in clothing, it was easy to distinguish the difference between the real and the fake night watch: "I'm afraid it's not a team to resist the law to save the accomplices, or even do something else." ”

You're not stupid, Tyrion smiled: "My lord, I don't understand what you say, we are all law-abiding citizens of the Seven Kingdoms, what can we do when we enter through the gate and come empty-handed?"

Slint looked at the hands of the black-clad security team members, and sure enough, there was nothing left, so there was no reason to kill him...... His heart was crossed, and he tilted his head to signal: "Sir Elisha, take your people with you, the remaining fake night watchmen who have not sworn an oath are suspected of being involved in a serious crime, I will take them all away for investigation!"

The golden-robed men from other battalions around them also gathered around them according to the order, and they didn't dare to attack the barracks of their colleagues at Linhemen, but what was the danger of arresting a group of unarmed civilians?

The night watchmen who had arrived at the Great Wall gathered their weapons and walked with Alyssa Thorne, separating from the seemingly troubled "brothers" to avoid accidental injury, and watched the mass capture with suspicion.

Tyrion stood still, his expression unchanged as the golden-robed men who numbered several times his own rushed past him, controlling and escorting the security guards he had brought with him. The scene was orderly, there were no clashes and bloodshed...... He brought people into the city to find or create an opportunity to relieve Egg, but he didn't think that Slint would not give him a chance to play at all.

Fortunately, things were not too much to expect, and Tyrion had already considered the possibility of provocation and arrest, so he ordered the security team not to carry weapons and not to resist under any circumstances before leaving this morning. Dozens of people stood motionless and let Slint's men arrest them, which not only wasted the manpower of the garrison, but also made the opponent unable to do anything at all.

The dwarf wants to scold, wants to sneer, wants to open his mouth and threaten viciously...... But in the end, a thousand words converged into a businessman's cliché: "Good, Lord Slint, I wish you a good investigation." ”

......

The battle to bring down Slint is already on the third day, and because of the leak of news, things are a little out of control. Tyrion began to feel uneasy, and he began to wonder if it was time to turn to his brother in the Red Keep for help.

But Slint stared at Tyrion for a moment with a gloomy expression, and suddenly added a new order: "Come, bring Master Tyrion back too, I suspect he also has something to do with last night's brawl and murder." ”

"Slint, are you crazy. Tyrion raised his eyebrows, even though he hadn't been so surprised to see the legendary ghoul appear in front of him. He never used Cersei and Jaime's status to scare people, because he had a good father, and the Lannister surname itself had a huge deterrent power, and he didn't expect that Slint would dare to deal with him in public: "You arrest me, guess what my old man will do when he hears this news?"

Slint grinned, "I'm not crazy, I'm not trying to arrest you, and I'm not interested in guessing what Duke Tywin will do, don't you wish me a smooth investigation, which requires the cooperation of Lord Tyrion and your accomplice Egger West." ”

Whatever the pretext, it was a fact that the garrison had captured a Lannister in the street, and the imp was extremely recognizable in King's Landing, and in the midst of the surprised comments of the onlookers and the stunned expressions of Tyrion, his squire Jack was disarmed, and he himself was grabbed by two golden-robed soldiers, one left and one right, and led away from the doorway blocking the passage to the city from the riverfront gate.

Slint told Robert yesterday that the queen was trying to buy him into rebellion, and the king ordered him to take his troops to the Red Keep today—if the Baratheon and Lannisters were to fall out today, the little Lannister, one of the sons of Duke Tywin, would be a very important captive of the nobles. Rather than sending someone to hunt down after the Red Fort has something to do, it is better to control it in your hands as soon as possible, even if you make a mistake in judgment, you can investigate it clearly, and let it go as a result.

The idea of the commander of the garrison was very good, and there were no difficulties in its implementation, but it was very unfortunate: the scene of Tyrion Lannister being captured and taken away by two golden robes - seen by his brother, who was about to leave the city from the river gate to Dragonstone at the behest of the king, was about to board a ship from the riverside gate to Dragonstone.
