164. Running King's Landing
King Robert, through his understanding of his good brother, can be regarded as a little mentally prepared for the next earth-shattering event.
But as a man, as a king, what he is going to hear next is not something that he can face calmly after all.
Although Lane was the one who knew the whole story of the story, he didn't want this information to come out of his mouth to tell Robert.
If there is anything, the good brother said it was comfort, but what outsiders said was ridicule.
Lan En felt like an outsider.
Ed slowed his horse, turned around and ran in parallel with Robert, gasping for a moment to calm the galloping breath of the horse.
"Huh-Robert, we need to find a quiet place to talk, or at least get back to your carriage."
The king's fat face, with his eyes squinted, did not scold as before, saying that 'a man should ride on a horse'.
On the contrary, he is very calm and rational.
"I just got assassinated, Eddard. At least a hundred people saw me stabbed, and at least a thousand people were speculating about my physical condition. I can't go back to the carriage at this point like I can't hold it anymore. ”
Ed stopped in astonishment and looked up at his good brother.
He still looks rude and fearless, but at the same time, he doesn't look like he has been burned out by alcohol, as he has shown in recent months.
This appearance made Ed feel nostalgic.
The battle of life and death allowed Robert to regain a little of his former spirit.
"Then let's talk in a whisper."
Ed and Robert tacitly increased their horse's speed slightly, distancing themselves from the entourage behind them.
"How many men do you have in King's Landing right now, so that they can fight against the Lannisters in King's Landing?"
Ed's straight to the point made Robert put down the wine bag he was about to put to his mouth and looked at him in dismay.
"That's probably the golden robe, you have to know, among the seven Kingsguards I have in my body, there are a few Lannisters. Who can not love gold? What is peculiar to Lannis is gold. ”
"But you want to kill the Lannisters? Are you crazy, Eddard? I hate Cersei's mother-in-law too, but if I kill her, it's fine."
"Then the world will be in chaos! I know! The Prime Minister angrily pushed back the king's words.
"But you know what, Robert? Now the world is in chaos! ”
Eddard then told Robert the whole thing he didn't know.
From his first day as Prime Minister, Jon Arryn's unnatural death, and then all the way to today's search results for the noble bloodline.
When Robert heard that his and Ed's co-adoptive father, the former prime minister, had died abnormally, he had pinched the leather wine bag in his hand as if it was about to burst!
By the time Ed explained the lineage of his three children, the man's masseter muscles had bulged out unusually from too much force.
For a normal man, this experience is undoubtedly an insult. And for a king who ascended to the throne with war, it is an insult that may shake the throne!
The long pain is better than the short pain, Ed took the tome directly from Lanen's hand and flipped to the corresponding page.
There are many records of Baratheon's marriage to the Lannisters.
Regardless of whether the Baratheon family was male or female, the children all had black hair.
The evidence is abundant.
Robert let out a sudden roar that looked like it was about to overturn the carriage, and his fat face was flushed like scorching lava.
"Ahh So! So Cersei sensed your impending investigation! Then, in a panic, I simply found someone to surround me in the jousting arena! He also made that ridiculous planting! ”
This line of thinking is quite normal, especially for Robert. He knew very well how ruthless Cersei was a woman.
However, Eddard knew that the mastermind of the assassination should be Petyr, but now it was the most important thing to deal with the Lannisters in King's Landing.
Petyr Berishi had no territory, no army. It's easy to clean him up, if you really don't follow the rules, it's just a matter of calling him to the palace to give him a knife.
"Robert, we have to hurry. We could have slowly built up a plan to impound all the Lannisters in the city. But some time ago my wife did something stupid, she tied up Tyrion, the little devil. Now the news is probably going to spread everywhere. The Lannisters are bound to erupt, and we can't wait. ”
"! Look at the good things your mother-in-law has done! ”
An enraged Robert yelled, then picked up speed and spun back into the convoy.
Lane and Ed didn't move, still walking in front of the convoy.
After a while, the convoy behind set off a commotion and commotion, and from time to time there were shouts of killing and the sound of iron clashing, and then turned orderly again.
Robert rode over on horseback with a warhammer and a bloody face.
Wherever he passed, the attendants in the convoy no longer dared to wander around like a spring outing, but lowered their heads and lined up in a regular queue like a quail.
Several white-robed guards of the Royal Forest were tied up in embarrassment and pressed against the convoy.
"Clean up the Lannisters and farts around you first."
Robert explained with a cold face, followed by Barristan, the captain of the Kingsguard.
"The oath of the monarch and the Kingsguard makes it impossible for me to kill them right now, but when this is over, they will have to take their heads off if they are counted as one!"
"The main thing is King's Landing." Lan's calm words interjected at this moment. "Those 2,000 golden robes are the key to the entire city now."
"This kid is right. Barristan, bring a team of good players, let's rush back first! ”
In the convoy, under the command of Barristan came twenty golden robes, who were escorts who followed the king out of the city.
"Very good, let's go!"
Robert let out a shout and rushed towards King's Landing, as if he hadn't been hurt at all.
The group rode their horses and rushed to the nearest gate of King's Landing, the Mud Gate.
Robert's face is the best pass.
The Lannisters' intelligence in King's Landing was much faster than Rann had expected.
But it could also be that Ryan and Eddard acted so decisively that Cersei didn't react.
Wait until the group rushes into King's Landing, once again surrounded by the stench of the inhabitants, on an empty yellow earth.
There were fifty or so soldiers with lion embroidered on their armor, led by a handsome man with blond hair and blue eyes.
Lane had heard of him at the knights' tournament - Jaime Lannister, one of the Seven Kingsguards, and the eldest son of the Lannisters.
By this time, Robert had fallen to the middle of the group in a bumpy back injury, led by Rann and Eddard.
As soon as he saw the bitter melon-faced prime minister, a sneer appeared on Jaime's face.
Still some distance away, Jaime shouted at Eddard.
"Prime Minister, the Lannisters have debts that must be repaid. Your wife has kidnapped my brother, and I have come to you for an explanation. ”
As he spoke, the fifty or so soldiers began to set up an encirclement formation.
But before Jaime could finish speaking, a loud roar rang out from the ranks behind Eddard.
"You golden retriever bastard!"
Robert roared, carrying his hammer directly past the two of them, and lunged at the stunned James!
