Chapter 0745: Sansa's Love: Politics or Truth
Winterfell.
Sacred Wood Forest.
Under the Heart Tree.
"Arya!" Sansa's expression was grim and grim.
Arya wore tight leather, soft leather armor on her arms and legs, not to fend off swords, but to prevent chafing. She has recently been honing her stealth skills in a variety of environments.
Stealth, get close to enemies, and kill with one hit.
She wears a thin, narrow sword at her waist, a Valyrian steel sword. Will made a point of giving the Forge's blacksmith Donna Noi to cast it. In addition to this narrow sword, there is also a dagger, also cast from Valyrian steel.
Arya appears to be a sturdy assassin or a fearsome warrior, while Sansa appears to be an elegant and beautiful lady.
Women against warriors, two sisters in a completely different style.
Arya didn't answer Sansa's words, she looked at her sister, who was a head above her, and waited for her sister to say something next.
"You're going to the South with Lord Will?"
Arya's eyes answered Sansa's words: Yes!
"Can you please not go with him. ”
Arya's questioning look made her want to leave.
"I want to go south with Lord Will. Sansa said.
"Why?" said Arya, looking Sansa up and down, "who can you kill?"
"I can cook and do laundry for Lord Will, and hand him a sword when he goes into battle. ”
Arya's eyes widened, "Sansa, what do you mean?"
"I love him and I want to be with him. Sansa is as calm as the tundra of the North," just like Jenny and Robb. What Jenny can do, I can do. Sansa looked up.
Arya stared at Sansa with strange eyes, and after a long moment, she said, "You don't deserve Lord Will at all." ”
"I can cook fine meals, I can make elegant clothes, I can sing, I can play the piano, I can dance, I can have the skills of a noblewoman. ”
"You don't know martial arts. Lord Will wouldn't like someone like you. Sansa, you better listen to your mother and find a noble child to marry. Will is my friend, and I won't allow him to marry you. Arya's eyes were contemptuous.
Sansa choked!
Arya turned away.
"Arya, you can't disgrace my love. Sansa's big beautiful eyes were filled with tears.
"Your love is porcelain, which shatters when it falls to the ground, and Lord Will's love has no room for porcelain, his love is a Valyrian steel sword. Arya said without looking back.
Under the heart tree, Janine Westerling slowly turned out.
She and Sansa are both beauties, but they have different temperaments.
Jenny hugged Sansa, who was crying softly.
"How could she do that to me?" Sansa choked.
"Sansa!" Jenny wiped away tears of grievance for her.
"Hmm!"
"Think about it, will Lord Will like your tears?"
“...... I...... I don't know in ......"
"He won't like it, he likes the sharpness of the sword. ”
"Huh?" Sansa looked up with tears in her eyes, puzzled.
"Put away your tears, because it's a sign of vulnerability. I was with Robb, and no matter how difficult it was, I comforted him and didn't shed a single tear in front of him. On our way back to Eddard Stark's father's funeral, Robb cried many times, and I was there for him to comfort her. I'm stronger than him, and when he's vulnerable, he's always the first to think of me. ”
Sansa's tears stopped, and a teardrop hung on her cheek like a pearl.
She stared at Jenny, pitiful.
"When men kill the enemy on the battlefield, they show their strength to the enemy, because they dare not show the slightest weakness, which will kill them. But when they go home, their toughness is gone, and they need our comfort that we wipe away their tears and blood, not that he comes home and wipes away our tears. ”
Sansa looked at Jenny in a daze.
"Women are men's armor, Sansa, and if you want to be the lover that Lord Will can afford, you don't need to be a Valyrian steel sword that Arya spoke of, but the woman who wipes away tears and blood for him. ”
Sansa whispered, "I see, I'm going to cry, and I'm going to hide and cry alone." I can't shed tears in front of Lord Will, I want to laugh with him and wipe away blood and tears for him. Even when I saw him bleed, I couldn't shed a single tear. ”
"Yes, then Lord Will will be yours. Jenny smiled encouragingly.
"But Arya won't help me. ”
"Why should Arya help you?"
Sansa's eyes widened again as she looked at Janie.
"Help yourself, love is also a battle. Men's battles are on the battlefield, and women's battles are in love. ”
"But I don't know who my opponent is?"
"Yourself. If you love Will, go to him and tell him that you will ride a griffon with him to the south. ”
"He will refuse, because I don't know martial arts, and I am a burden to him. ”
"How do you know he won't agree to you if you haven't tried it? Remember, Sansa, love is a place where miracles are made, don't set limits on yourself beforehand. Don't give yourself the results first, do it. ”
"What if he rejects me?"
"Then you go south by yourself. ”
"I can't do it. ”
"Yes, baby, I also know that you can't do it, and Lord Will will know that you can't do it, but if you do, Lord Will will know your determination, he has a griffin, and he will never ignore a girl who loves him, because you must go to the south, he will be afraid that you will lose your life, and he will come to find you. ”
Sansa said, "My mother will scold me to death, it's very unfilial. ”
"Sansa, it's worth sacrificing anything for love. ”
This sentence ignites Sansa's fighting spirit and helps her make a terrible decision.
The two girls lowered their voices and carefully discussed various details. Behind them, the two bleeding eyes of the Ten Thousand Years Heart Tree slowly opened, and they looked at the backs of the two girls with scrutinizing eyes. Their words were all heard by this humanoid life, which was the guardian tree of Winterfell and the green prophet who guided Will to found the Church of the Holy Inquisition. (Echoing the plot at the beginning, the span is large and the timeline is huge.) )
Jenny wholeheartedly helps Sansa facilitate the marriage, and also to help her father Gavin Westerling complete the task of 'marriage'. The Westerlings were on the verge of ruin in the West, but because they had taken refuge in Will and Melisandre, and Jenny fell in love with Robb at first sight, the Westerlings became one of the five hottest families in the West.
In order to cooperate with Melisandre's 'death order', Gavin must marry Sansa and Will. When all the nobles left Winterfell after the funeral, only Gavin Westerling remained.
Jenny and Sansa were about to leave after discussing it, when a voice was cold, "Sansa!"
A person seems to appear out of thin air in the shadow of the heart tree.
Behind him, there was a man.
Both men were dressed in black and pants, their heads covered by black hoods, and their entire faces were hidden in the dark. They were armed with swords at their waists and wore deerskin gloves on their hands.
"Uncle Bunyan!" Sansa hurriedly curtsied.
Bunyan Stark, Undead Knight. The man in black behind him is his subordinate, nicknamed Mouse. With Will's help, the two undead pass under the fishbeam wooden gates of the former Castle of the Night, now Forged Sword, and Will tells Bunyan Stark the secret of the Stark's underground ancestral tomb (fill in the pit of the opening storyline), and Bunyan and the rat secretly come to Winterfell and live in the family tomb.
At Eddard Stark's funeral, two men showed up and gave Eddard Stark his last ride.
The two Undead Knights reside in the family tomb, guarding the prophesied sword of light, and they will also be the leaders of the undead army sealed in the tomb, waiting for the final moment of the strange spirit's attack. This secret is also known only to Will and the Ten Thousand Years Heart Tree. (The plot of the opening story is described).
She, Jane and the others didn't know Bunyan Stark's true identity. When Bunyan Stark appeared, he no longer lived in the ancestral tomb, but instead lived in the castle rooms in the sight of the people.
"Sansa, are you really going to die to marry Lord Will?" said Bunyan Stark lightly.
Political marriage, Bunyan's eyes are above Caitlin.
Now in the entire Seven Kingdoms, no one has the prestige appeal and real strength of the people of Will. There is no one who has the status of Lord Will: Prime Minister of the Seven Kingdoms, Guardian of the Whole Territory, Guardian of the East, Earl of Dragonstone.
Will has the capital to create a new generation of noble founders, and he only needs to formulate a family crest and motto for his family, and then be rewarded by Shireen Baratheon I as a duke, so that he can be equal to Eddard Stark's family status. At present, there are five nobles in the West, but there is no duke who leads the five nobles. Harrenhal and its fertile lands have been without their owners for a long time, and there is not a single duke.
"Uncle...... Yes......" Sansa Mae blushed slightly.
"I agree that you and Lord Will can marry. Bunyan Stark said. Sansa's face flushed even more, and she smiled.
"However, the solution you discussed with Jenny did not succeed. ”
Sansa and Jenny both have their eyes on Bunyan.
"Sansa, when Sir Gavin proposes marriage to you, your mother Caitlyn will talk to you, and he will tell you that Will's origins are not worthy of our blood, and then you can tell her that you can apply to Her Majesty Shireen for the title of Lord Will as the Duke of the West, the Duke of Harrenhal, and the Duke of Dragonstone. Your mother's Stark nobles, the nobles, and the nobler pretext will be blocked. You and Will will create a new generation of aristocratic families, and you will become the founders of the Will family. ”
Sansa was surprised and delighted: "Uncle, how is it possible for Her Majesty Shireen to give three places to Lord Will?"
"The Duke of the Westlands is in vain, in name only, Harrenhal is under the jurisdiction of the Riverlands, and the Duke of Horst's life was saved by Lord Will, and he has never been able to manage the nobles of the land because Harrenhal is too far away. Lord Will, as the Hand of the King, could own a piece of land in his land, and Duke Horst would ask for it. And Dragonstone itself is already Lord Will's private island, and it is a natural thing to go from earl to duke. The more false titles will be on Lord Will's head, the more Lady Caitlyn will like it. ”
Sansa and Jenny both nodded their heads.
"But, Sansa, you may face a problem that you don't want to face. ”
"Uncle, I'm not afraid of anything!" Sansa was even more determined after receiving Bunyan Stark's support and affirmation.
She will never change, she wants to pursue the love of her dreams.
Years later, her and Will's love will be sung by the singer, and they will become the founders of a new aristocracy.
"Maybe your sister Arya has a crush on Will, too. ”
Sansa was stunned.
My sister has always been a boy in her heart, not a girl.
However, when her uncle said this, Sansa noticed that Arya was not a boy, but a girl.
"No, Arya is just a good friend of Lord Will. Sansa said.
“...... Well, I hope so......" Bunyan Stark raised his hand and disappeared into the Sacred Wood with the mouse.
*
Night.
Inside Caitlin's spa bedroom. (Why is there a hot spring, newcomers look at the beginning)
"Sir Gavin, when do you think we're going to have a make-up wedding for Robb and Jenny?" said Caitlin apologetically.
"There is no hurry, ma'am. Gavin said politely.
Caitlyn was slightly surprised that Count Gavin had not come to her for the wedding of Jenny and Robb? he was too understanding to know that Caitlyn was still in a state of grief and could not hold a wedding for Robb in a short time. Although this is a snub for Jenny.
"...... Janie"
Sir Gavin immediately interrupted Caitlin.
"Madame, it's okay, I can understand it, and so can Jenny. She is now a member of House Stark in the North, and everything should be based on the interests and etiquette of House Stark. The Westerlings are the most polite of all of them, but we have nothing to say about Mistress Eddard Stark's special affairs. ”
"Thank you, Sir for your understanding. Lady Caitlyn hurriedly thanked her.
Jenny's stomach bulged slightly, and the Stark family still didn't hold a make-up wedding, which was indeed Jane's slowness and disrespect. But Jenny and Gavin in turn reassured Caitlin not to mind.
"Madam, I've heard some rumors, I don't know if it's true. ”
"What rumors?" Catelyn looked alarmed.
"Some say Will will go south soon and take Messira Lannister with him. ”
"What?" Caitlin was immediately drawn to attention, "that is impossible. ”
"I don't think it's possible. Some people say this on purpose, with some malicious intentions. Madame, now that the North, the Riverlands, the West, and the Vale are united by Lord Will, and the King's Territory, Storm's End, and the High Court are in the hands of Kevon Lannister, and if we cannot unite the Southerners, we will not be able to defeat the Strangers of the North. ”
"Yes. ”
"Well, I heard that Lord Will went south to find the seven dragon eggs in the Summer Hall. ”
"Oh, is it true?" Catelyn was taken aback, "Lord Will is looking for dragon eggs, and he can hatch dragons?"
"Yes, ma'am. Lord Will hatched the dragon to fight the Stranger of the North. But, for the sake of absolute insurance, Madame, if the relationship between Lord Will and the Stark family can go one step further......"
"You want Lord Will and Stark to marry?"
"Yes, ma'am. No relationship of interest is as stable as marriage. For the sake of the north and this country, Stark and Will will definitely get the support of all nobles, and the hearts of the people will want it. Even if there is a dragon Will, he will definitely not be able to do without the support of the Stark family. The legions loyal to him were all in the north after all. ”
Caitlin was silent for a long time, and then said, "Okay, I agree to the marriage. Sir Gavin, I think Mia Stark is very suitable for Lord Will in terms of physical appearance, martial arts and courage, character and wisdom, and noble blood. What do you think?"
