Eagle of the Valley of Ice and Fire

Chapter 208 Martial Arts Tournament (5)

"This is not the way to King's Landing, Ser Jaime."

Uncle Kevan's second son, William Lannister, has followed Jaime in the army since he was ordered to garrison the Golden Tooth City. He was captured after Tytos Blackwood attacked the Golden Tooth City at night and experienced many changes in the castle. , and was finally released back to Casterly Rock by Lord Eustace Hunter of the Vale.

James looked at him and saw how similar he was to Damion's son, with the same blond hair, similar age, and the same stupidity. Anyone who chooses to follow him as a squire is stupid.

"I know." James's voice was hoarse, and William guessed that it was because there was too much smoke and dust along the Golden Road, which was inhaled by Jazz into his throat.

William pointed to the southeast corner, "We can rest in King's Landing and then go where you want to go."

The difference between this boy and Lucien is that he doesn't bother to get to the bottom of things, which is a good habit.

James moved his fingers slightly, "Attis Arryn is holding a tourney at Harrenhal, and the princess is also there." He thought of Myrcella's sweet smile, and the expectation in his heart was inexplicably more, "The Royal The Iron Guard protects the king, and the king is safe in King's Landing, but Harrenhal. Let's go to Harrenhal."

He missed Cersei, his sister, very much, even at Casterly Rock.

But on the golden road, the closer we get to King's Landing, the more nervous we feel inside.

James reached out and touched the scars on his face, recalling the experience of escaping from the Golden Teeth back to Casterly Rock. The gravel rolled down the hillside and tore his face apart.

Jaime was sure of the punishment of the gods. He sighed slightly, "Let's go, William Lannister. We can hurry over and get there. Maybe we can get some wine from Duke Attis."

Harrenhal is no longer gloomy and lonely at night. Inside the castle, there is a hundred-fire banquet where the nobles are having fun. Outside the city walls, there are bonfires surrounded by countless free knights. Playing, yelling, clashing swords, fighting naked, archery, and hunting belong to the knights. Their entertainment took place everywhere outside the city.

Evan Aylin stood on the city wall. As a branch of the Seagull Town of the Aylin family, he should have participated in the banquet at Hundred Furnaces Hall, but the registrar had to be wary of the suspicious information.

The reason why Duke Attis transferred him from King's Landing before was to investigate whether there were any strongholds of believers in the villages near God's Eye Lake. Therefore, he paid special attention to the information about the Church of the Seven Gods. The monks in the registration office were naturally his. Needless to say, the reason why he chose a monk as an eyeliner was that Evan Aylin felt that such an identity would cause some people who were hiding in the dark to cause trouble to put down their guard and choose to take the bait.

The guard on the side held a torch. Evan looked at the names in the register and then at the densely packed knight tents under the city wall. He did not want to disturb the Duke's interest on the eve of the tournament.

There are many names marked by monks on the roster. This is not surprising. There are many knights who believe in the Seven Gods and use Heavenly Father, warriors or seven-pointed stars as their personal emblems. The Duke will definitely not be satisfied if he uses this as an excuse to go to war.

Evan looked at the high platform for the tournament that had been set up outside the city wall from a distance, and he felt a little uneasy in his heart. The land between the rivers was too big, and most of the people who gathered at Harrenhal were homeless people from towns and villages. The groups in the streets and alleys of Junlin City are relatively fixed.

"Where are all the civilians?" Evan Aylin asked the guard on the side.

"Most of them are in the towns around the bridge north of Harrenhal." the guard responded.

Evan Aylin was silent for a moment after hearing this, and looked at a special name on the roster.

"Theodore Wells," Evan frowned, "Coming from Dorne, which is so far away, how could this happen?" He looked at the mass of knight tents under the city wall, "Colored tents? Half-dyed colored shields" , with attendants"

He pushed the roster to the guard, "Find this person. His Dornish appearance should be easily identifiable, and he will be disqualified from the competition."

"The royal family sympathizes with your situation, my dear sister," Myrcella held Yassina Royce's hands, her words were full of concern, and she comforted softly, "If your father agrees, I believe King Joffrey I will definitely choose a good son-in-law for you to make up for this harm." There were already two lines of tears on Yasina's cheeks. "These men, including my father, never know what I want and throw me around. "She couldn't help but lay in the princess's arms and sobbed.

On the other side of the banquet, only Robert Royce noticed his sister's condition and stretched his neck to look around. But the two brothers, Bronze Yohn, Anda, and Weimar, had already integrated into the banquet of the nobles, drinking and bragging, without even noticing where their daughter or sister had gone.

Weimar also showed off loudly to himself, "We remember!" He shouted the motto of the Royce family, "Remember Robb Stark's oath breaking and wash away the shame for my sister!"

The arrogant knights gave Weimar applause and cheers.

Myrcella clearly felt that Yasina in her arms cried even more after hearing this. She could only reach out and pat Yasina's back, uttering constant words of comfort.

"If you have a man you like, look around. If you need my help," Myrcella said softly to Yasina, "I will do my best." She looked up at her husband, and Attis seemed to be there too. The effort to bring men and women together is just a little clumsy and a little too deliberate.

The corners of her mouth raised slightly, and Yasina's voice of surprise reached her ears, "Really?"

"Of course," Myrcella smiled slightly. She looked at the men and women surrounding the Duke, the daughter of Earl Bracken, a knight in the valley's dress. If she guessed correctly, Duke Attis was most likely working for the valley and the river. The unity of the world is working hard.

"Do you have someone you like, Yasina?" Myrcella looked at Yasina's reddish cheeks and asked slightly teasingly.

Yasina leaned into the princess's ear and said the name.

Myrcella smiled slyly and looked at a corner of the crowd.

Theodore Wells took off his gray robe and armor, and the long sword with an exquisite crystal hilt was also hung on the wooden rope beside him.

He looked up at the bright moon in the night sky and skillfully put on the mason's clothes.

The stonemason put on the knight's armor with some reluctance. The broad shoulders made the armor slightly inappropriate. He stroked the rainbow shield that was only half dyed, took Theodore's crystal-handled sword, and nodded slightly to Theodore.

"The gate on the west side of the castle is where mule carts transport stone and firewood. There will probably be an inventory soon in the early morning. Since there has been no war, most of Harrenhal's defenses have been negligent." The stonemason, who put on his armor, headed west. Sir Odo explained in detail, "There are too many nobles in the city who are drunk and having fun. Many prostitutes have even been summoned. You can easily find a good sword."

Theodore nodded slightly, and he held the stonemason's hand, "Bless the seven gods, I hope the believers will be fine."

"Most of Attis Arryn's subordinates are believers of the Seven Gods. Even the Duke cannot stop the anger." The stonemason forced a smile.

Theodore nodded slightly. He thought of many things in history, such as the fight against Maegor and the dragon slaying in the Dance of the Blood Dragons.

He stepped on the moonlight, walked out of the tent, and disappeared into the darkness.

　I have children at home, so updates have been very late recently, and the status is very poor. Sorry, there is still only one update today.
