Beauty Man: All Heavens and Immortals

Chapter 349 God's Maid
The continent of Westeros.

King's Landing.

Teams of knights surrounded several gorgeous carriages and came meanderingly.

"His Majesty the King has returned from the North."

"Hey, isn't that the lord of Winterfell, Ned Stark? He doesn't guard Winterfell, what is he doing all the way to King's Landing?"

"Stupid! I don't even know this. The former Prime Minister and Hand of the King, Jon Arryn, died of an accident. His Majesty the King has always ignored government affairs. He must find someone he trusts enough to take over as Prime Minister. The Lord of Winterfell and His Majesty the King are Being close friends in life and death, with a respectable status, and a person who is not greedy for power, is the best choice for His Majesty the King."

"So that's the case. But Lord Stark is really big on face. His Majesty the King neither used ravens to deliver letters nor sent envoys. Instead, he brought the queen and princes to invite them in person. Even the former Prime Minister, Lord Ayrin There is no such kindness."

"Of course. Lord Stark is the true king of the North. Before His Majesty's Baratheon family came to power, the Stark family had ruled the North for thousands of years. Back then, the madmen of the Targaryen family When the king ruled Westeros, it was Lord Stark who took the lead in supporting His Majesty the King in launching a war, and drove the Targaryen family who had ruled Westeros for 300 years from the Iron Throne."

"If it wasn't for Lord Stark's humility, how could Robert Baratheon pass Ned Stark and sit on the Iron Throne? No wonder His Majesty the King values ​​Lord Stark so much."

"This is on the one hand, on the other hand, Lord Stark's sister, Lyanna Stark was His Majesty's fiancée back then, and I heard that she was the love of His Majesty's life, but unfortunately she was captured by the mad king's son Rhaegar Targaryen. , This triggered the usurper war that swept across the entire continent of Westeros. His Majesty the King swung his hammer on the banks of the Trident River and killed Rhaegar with his own hands, but Lyanna Stark had already been killed."

"It turns out that there is still this story. Tell me, the current His Majesty the King is indulging in wine and sex, and the love, wife, and illegitimate children are all over the King's Landing. Is it because of the loss of his love at the beginning?"

"Hehe. Half and half, which man is not good at drinking, let alone a man like His Majesty who stands at the pinnacle of power."

Commoners and nobles talked a lot.

Inside the Red Castle.

"How do you feel, Grand Maester Pycelle?"

A fat man with a gentle face, crossed his hands in his sleeves, walked out from the corner, and smiled at the old man with a white beard who was stroking the Iron Throne: "Are you disappointed that Your Majesty didn't choose you as Prime Minister?"

"how could be."

Grand Maester Pacelle withdrew his hand, turned to look at the fat man, and tremblingly said: "Lord Stark's status and ability are obvious to all, His Majesty chose him as Hand of the King, and he deserves it, Lord Varys, do you have any doubts?" ?”

"of course not."

Eunuch Varys smiled.

"Grand Maester, Lord Varys, you are all here."

A skinny little man walked in and greeted him with a smile on his face.

"Lord Baelish, the new Hand of the King is about to take office. Lord Stark is famously upright. As the imperial treasurer, your bill will probably embarrass Lord Stark."

"It's also impossible."

Petyr Baelish, nicknamed Littlefinger, said with a smile on his face unchanged: "Everything is His Majesty's will, I am just helping His Majesty find money, I believe Lord Stark will understand."

"Where is Lord Renly?"

Grand Maester Pycelle glanced at the other two, whether it was the Chief of Intelligence, the eunuch Varys nicknamed the Octopus Spider, or Littlefinger, the Minister of Finance and the owner of the brothel chain in King's Landing, both of them were the most well-informed.

The former controls countless little birds, that is, all kinds of spies, distributed all over the world, not limited to Westeros, and can be called the most powerful intelligence leader.

The latter controlled all the brothels in King's Landing, and built monitoring rooms in the brothels. Whenever important people came to play, Littlefinger would secretly monitor them, and get a lot of secrets from them.

"His Highness Renly knew that His Majesty was entering the city, so he naturally went to greet him. He will come over with His Majesty and Lord Stark later."

Eunuch Varys laughed.

"Well, that's good, otherwise, when Lord Stark takes over as the king's hand, it will be bad if we imperial ministers don't show up."

Grand Maester Pycelle murmured, closed his eyes and got up to rest his mind, his body swayed unsteadily, matching his white hair and beard, making people worry that his body would not be able to bear it.

"Pooh!"

The eunuch Varys and Littlefinger looked at each other, and at the same time spat inwardly. They felt extremely contemptuous of this veteran of the three dynasties.

Don't look at Grand Maester Paihill's appearance on the outside, but eunuch Varys and Littlefinger both know that this is Grand Maester Paihill's pretentiousness, relying on the old to sell the old, and in the brothel, this 80-year-old grandfather Unlimited energy...

Boom boom boom!
When the three of them had different thoughts, the gate of the palace was pushed open heavily, and King Robert Baratheon walked in first, pulling Ned Stark.

Followed by Queen Cersei Lannister, the eldest prince Joffrey Baratheon, the second prince Tommen Baratheon, the little princess Saila Baratheon, and the king's favorite young brother Renly Baratheon.

After that came the King's Kingsguard, the twin brother of Queen Cersei, and Jaime Lannister, known as the Kingslayer who killed the former king, the Mad King.

There are only two daughters of the Stark family who followed Ned Stark to King's Landing. The eldest daughter Sansa Stark has grown up, and her admiring gaze has been following the figure of the eldest prince Joffrey.

The youngest daughter, Alia Stark, was still young, but she was active by nature. She caught a glimpse of her sister's bewildered eyes and smiled disdainfully. Then she looked away and looked at the majestic palace and various characters.

There are too many other nobles to enumerate, all gathered in the palace.

King Robert Baratheon pressed Ned Stark directly on the Iron Throne, and said to the crowd: "From now on, Ned will be my strong shield, pillar and strong right hand, and he will be in charge of the throne for me." The imperial council, leading the imperial ministers, and managing the day-to-day operations of the country."

As he said that, he took a badge from the waiter, pinned it on Ned's chest, patted Ned's shoulder, and said with a big smile, "Okay, with your help, I can go to have fun without worry."

After finishing speaking, under Ned Stark's gloomy gaze, Robert, who was as fat as a pig, really left gracefully. Queen Cersei also left with the prince and others. You nobles have seen the new king After the hand, they also dispersed, leaving only the four imperial ministers.

"Lord Renly, Grand Maester Pycelle, Lord Varys, Lord Baelish."

Ned Stark got up from the Iron Throne and greeted the four most important assistants.

Although the Iron Throne symbolizes supremacy, it is not as comfortable as the Eastern Throne. On the contrary, it is cold and hard. It was originally made by Aegon Targaryen, the first monarch conqueror of the Seven Kingdoms.

He asked the dragon "Black Death" Balerion to melt thousands of swords discarded by the enemy when they surrendered, and it took 59 days to complete the throne.

The Iron Throne is an iron lump full of spikes, sharp horns, and twisted metal. There are also many spikes on the back of the chair.

Aegon the Conqueror had said that kings should not sit comfortably, and had ordered the Iron Throne to be made that way on purpose.It is said that the "Mad King" Aerys II was often cut by the Iron Throne, and there are even legends that the Iron Throne killed several people, such as Maegor I.

"Lord Stark."

The four bowed in response.

"Your Majesty entrusted me with such an important task, and I hope that all of you adults will assist me to manage the Seven Kingdoms together."

Ned Stark said sincerely.

The Seven Kingdoms are the seven originally independent nations of Westeros.These are: the Kingdom of the North, the Kingdom of the Dale, the Kingdom of the Isles and Rivers, the Kingdom of the Casterly Rock, the Kingdom of the Reach, the Kingdom of the Stormlands and the Kingdom of Dorne.

Later, it was unified by Aegon the Conqueror in the war of conquest. The capital was the king on the Iron Throne and became the ruler of the Seven Kingdoms. The Seven Kingdoms were divided into nine administrative regions, the North, the Valley, the Iron Islands, the West, The Reach, The Stormlands, Dorne, the Riverlands, and the Crownlands.

Although unified into one country, people still refer to the regime in Westeros as the Seven Kingdoms.

"Dare not to obey, Lord Stark."

"Well, I haven't been to King's Landing for many years, please tell me about the current situation of the Kingdom."

Ned Stark brought everyone to the imperial conference table, sat down, and motioned for everyone to introduce their respective government affairs.

The Bachelor of Pai Sear is the representative of the Academy City. Only scholars, doctors, and scientists who have studied and trained in the Academy City can be called Bachelors. They can be loyal to the masters there as advisors, mentors, and doctors of the nobles. Naturally, he did not How many things need to be reported.

Eunuch Varys said: "Lord Stark, beyond the Narrow Sea, the remnants of the Targaryen family are lobbying the steppe nation Dorax, intending to counterattack the continent of Westeros. Do you want to send someone to attack and kill?"

"kindness?"

Ned Stark frowned, and pondered: "I remember, only one man and one woman escaped from the Targaryen family, and now they are just children, how can they have the ability to lobby Dorax, abandon their horses and take a boat, and come across the ocean? "

"My lord has a good memory."

The eunuch Varys said with a smile: "A man and a woman who escaped are the mad king's second son, Viserys Targaryen, and the youngest daughter, Daenerys Targaryen. Now Daenerys Targaryen has grown up, You can get married and have children.

Viserys intends to marry Daenerys to Khal Drogo, a leader of Dorax. Khal Drogo has more than [-] cavalry under his command. It's better to get rid of it as soon as possible. As long as the adults give orders, I will immediately arrange for assassins to do it. "

"No!"

Numerous images flashed in Ned Stark's eyes, and he flatly refused: "They are just children, not to mention that they didn't succeed at all, even if they succeeded, Robert and I were able to drive the Targaryen family from the Iron Throne back then. I'm afraid that their two children will fail, so why use such dirty methods."

"Yes."

A strange look flashed in the eunuch Varys' eyes, and he bowed in response.

After this matter was revealed, it was Littlefinger's turn. Littlefinger handed over the ledger to Ned. Ned saw that his head was getting bigger, and he shouted in disbelief, "Lord Baelish, are you right? How can you owe so much money?"

"No mistake, Lord Stark."

Littlefinger smiled calmly: "His Majesty has spent too much these years, and the kingdom cannot make ends meet, so he has to borrow money everywhere. The Lannister family's several million golden dragons are okay, but the Iron Bank's loan needs to be resolved as soon as possible. The treasury is never in arrears, not even in the Seven Kingdoms."

Looking at the deep frown of his rival Ned Stark, Littlefinger felt extremely happy, and smiled: "By the way, Lord Stark, His Majesty the King has already ordered a knightly tournament to celebrate you taking over the hand of the King." In the competition, the winner can not only obtain the status of a knight, but also a reward of 4 golden dragons."

"absurd!"

Ned Stark stood up abruptly and said angrily, "The kingdom is already heavily in debt. How can there be any spare money to pay for this contest? Send me an order to cancel the contest."

There are three grades of currency in Westeros: Gold Dragon, Silver Deer, and Bronze Star. Gold Dragon is the highest currency, so it is naturally worth a lot. 4 Gold Dragons is definitely an astronomical figure. Even the king of the realm couldn't get it out, and now Robert, who owed a lot of debt, threw away so much money without caring, and his profligacy is not enough to describe.

"Sir, no."

Littlefinger dissuaded and said: "This martial arts competition has long been known throughout the country. Countless warriors gathered in King's Landing just to win this competition. Canceling it rashly may cause great changes. Please think again, my lord. His majesty's personal order, even if you want to cancel it, you have to ask your majesty first."

"I'm going to find His Majesty now."

Ned angrily went to find Robert, as Littlefinger expected, Robert was extremely stubborn and insisted on holding a knightly tournament, but Ned's persuasion was fruitless, so he had no choice but to order the original plan to proceed.

In the Junlin City Hotel.

A young man with black hair, black eyes and yellow skin lay on the bed, looked at the bustling crowd outside through the window, and said to himself; "I didn't expect to come to the world of Game of Thrones. I said the system, why did you send me this time?" Almost completely sealed?"

"It's simple."

System: "You can think of traveling through the world and harvesting the origin as a game. Since it is a game, it naturally has a degree of difficulty. The easier the start, the less the origin of harvesting, the more difficult the start, the more the origin of harvesting after success. many."

"What about the world of pawn shop No. [-]? Isn't that the best way to harvest the origin?"

"That was a special situation. In order to harvest the special item of No. [-] Pawnshop as soon as possible, you were asked to intervene in the strongest state."

"Okay, let's take a look at what the system mission is this time...

World: Game of Thrones
System Task [-]: Divine Appearance

System Task [-]: Maid of the God of the Uncle Yao series next door..."
