Chapter 202: Fiancé
Wearing the mask of "Loyal Night Watchman" and then occupying the moral high ground and putting on a posture of "I am for your good", Egger was suddenly invincible
There is no doubt that if a night watchman dares to speak in such a tone to any nobleman in the Seven Kingdoms except for the north, even if there is nothing to do in person, I am afraid that he will be killed in the future. But in the here and now, Egger's rant didn't have any bad consequences—he was just taking part in the noisy room, and what he said was purely an opinion and not directed at anyone......
In the case that the people of the north have a natural close relationship with the defenders of the Great Wall, this quarrel is a bit of an "awkward quarrel with their own family", and there is no sense of disobedience.
Egger's outburst didn't deter anyone, but it was clear that he was in favor of making peace with Tywin more than the other side. There was still a lot of noise in the room, and Robb had to knock on the table again to get quiet inside.
"The Chief Logistics Officer reminded me that I almost forgot something important: our enemies aren't just Lanley and Tywin, and we can't afford to waste too much strength or time in the South, after all—winter is coming. For the first time, Robb felt that his own language was so appropriate, and he paused for a few seconds and looked at the Night's Watch, "Egg, I agree to let Jaime join the Night's Watch, but are you sure you can keep him from escaping or causing trouble in the North?"
"If he becomes a deserter or violates the discipline of the Night's Watch, the Legion will naturally deal with him according to the rules and take care of it, and the lion's anger will not burn the desperate Wall. ”
"Well, if no one has any more opinions, then the matter is settled, go back and do what you have to do, and the army will rest here for two more days today and tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow morning it will march for King's Landing. ”
The principal made a decision, and the remaining princes naturally did not want to talk nonsense more, and the three wolves, ospreys, and the three families were full of oil and water under the command of Robb - and the commander who led people to win the battle must have prestige. And after all, Jaime joining the Night's Watch did not infringe on the interests of any of the nobles present, on the contrary, it was equivalent to giving a hostage to the North. At the very least, Riverland doesn't have to worry about being invaded by the Western Army.
......
The princes walked through Egg's side and walked out the door, but the Night's Watch remained in the house and waited for Robb to give a final account to Edmure Tully before he stepped forward.
"Robb, take a step to speak. ”
"What?" Robb took two confused steps and followed Iger to the corner.
"Arya is by my side. ”
"Arya!?" Robb was overjoyed, "She's not hurt, what the hell is going on, why didn't she escape back to Dragonstone with Sansa and Stannis that day?"
She's waiting outside the door. Egger told Robb exactly what had happened on the day of the Blue Rite siege, and then added in a whisper, "This goes against the principle that the Night's Watch does not participate in the internal affairs of the Seven Kingdoms, you can just take the people away quietly, and don't make a noise." When my party returns to the North, I will announce that I have found your sister, and that she escaped from King's Landing to find you. ”
"Understood, my room is upstairs over here, I'll pull the others back later, and you bring her over. Robb excitedly grabbed Egg's arm: "You don't know how worried I am about this naughty little girl...... Not much to say, the Stark family owes you a personal favor, if you encounter any trouble in the north, just mention it, I can solve it, I will definitely help!"
"Then thank you in advance, I'll go out first, and bring people in later. ”
"Good. ”
......
Egger left the conference room, looked around the door but didn't see Arya, so he had to ask his guard, "What about Eli, didn't I tell you to wait here?"
"A big gray dog came out of the room just now, and Eli ran away with it......"
Another interjected, "What a big dog, that's a wolf!"
The two men were talking about Robb's wolf gray wind, and Egg was a little more at ease, with that wolf, at least Arya wouldn't be hurt - this damn bear kid, why does she keep running around when others are looking for her?
No, maybe it's not "always running around when others want to look for her", but "anytime and anywhere".
Secretly scolding the stinky girl, Egg began to ask the surrounding soldiers about the whereabouts of the ice wolf. The Boss's army of war pets was well known, and after much effort, Iger found her in a stable in Harrenhal, a few hundred meters away.
"Eli, what are you doing there!" Arya crouched against the wall with her back to the Night's Watch, as if to tease Grey Wind. A little squire of the night watchman, but he has such a good relationship with Robb Stark's wolf, this girl is really not afraid of being seen by someone with a heart, Egger is a little anxious: "Come here!"
"No, you let me stay by myself for a while!" Arya turned around, her eyes red and she looked like she wanted to cry, and the huge gray wolf bowed her head and arched the girl with her nose, as if to comfort her.
"What's wrong?" Iger approached cautiously, and had to say that the Icewolf was really big, only a year old, and his shoulders were already up to Egger's waist.
Greywind looked up and bared his teeth at Egg, but after all, he had seen Egg a few times, and was put around Arya's neck, but he didn't really attack the Night's Watch.
Arya turned her head and buried her face in the fur of the gray wind, and said in an urn voice, "I miss Namelia......"
Someria: It's the wolf that Arya was forced to chase. Egger suddenly, seeing the girl's red eyes, he couldn't accuse her of running away for a while, and sighed: "Nymelia must be alive and well in the wild, don't think about her yet, go, go back with me to see your eldest brother." ”
"Don't. Arya stood up and patted Greywind on the head, and the Icewolf wagged his tail, walked over to Egg, sniffed him, and ran back to Robb's tower. "He sold me, and I won't go back. ”
"What sold you?"
"I suddenly have a fiancé, or Robb chose it for me!
I see, it seems that just as she was arguing with the princes of the North, Arya also heard something from the soldiers around her.
"This is your family's business, and my task is to deliver you safely to your family. Go back to see Robb first, you can discuss with him, even if nothing comes to the discussion, he won't let you go and marry someone right now and enter the cave room. ”
Robb's terrifying wolf was gone, and Egger lost his fears and reached out to the girl to pull her back.
"Don't touch me, I'm not going to see him!" Arya jumped up and ran to the side of the stable, and Egg turned to make sure the terrifying ice wolf was gone, before pulling his legs to chase after him.
"Stop! Accepting the marriage arrangement is the duty of a family member, don't learn from your aunt...... Harm others and yourself!"
"I don't care if I don't care, I want to love freely and marry freely!" Arya ran as fast as she could, swishing through the soldiers all over Harrenhal.
Isn't this the story he told Arya's attention in the first place, Egerton felt like he was asking for it, pushed and squeezed through the crowd, chased after a few hundred meters, and finally forced Arya into a dead end, catching her when she tried to slip past her.
"You girl, how can you do this!" Egger dragged her back in annoyance.
"Master! you...... If you dare to sell me with Robb...... I'm ...... I'll just ......"
"That's it?"
"I ...... I'll tell Robb and my fiancé that you touch my ass!"
"When did I touch your ass!"
"Anyway, it's just touching. Arya struggled and writhed like a live fish, "I don't care, you take me back to Winterfell, I don't want to see Robb." ”
This girl is smart, and she knows how to threaten Egger with things...... Molerating with a noblewoman is a felony, and at least which hand will be cut off at least if the sentence is lighter, and it is possible to be killed directly by the Stark family or Arya's future husband.
It's really good to repay the kindness, Aigteng started the fire, grabbed Arya and carried it on his shoulder, "snapped" twice, and slapped her buttocks twice: "Lao Tzu not only dares to touch, but also dares to fight! If you don't want to suffer anymore, you will be honest!"
Egger didn't spare any of these two slaps, and Arya shrank in pain and almost screamed. The pain was still a bit intimidating to this kind of unreasonable bear child, she hummed and stopped talking, her eyes filled with tears, and she held back from them, letting Egg carry herself back to the previous tower and into Robb's room.
