Eagle of the Valley of Ice and Fire

Chapter 47 Reaction
"Damn it, Ned, do you know what your wife has done?" Robert strode back and forth in the room, and the whole bedroom floor made a "dong-dong!" sound.

Eddard was silent. He looked down at Robert's exquisite goblet, which was engraved with a crowned stag. It was inlaid with three gems, gold, silver, and blue. He remembered that this was the carpenter Lyanna arranged for Robert in the south. A gift made by Bob.

Robert frowned at Ed and pointed to the wine glass on the table, "Brother, why are you so dazed? If you like this, I'll ask the craftsmen to make hundreds of them for you! You can also carve them into the heads of direwolves." He said Shaking his head, he sat down heavily on the bed, causing the bed board to tremble violently. "Creaking" sounds were heard.

"It's best to carve a rose next to it, a rose of ice and snow." Eddard remembered that Lyanna liked to draw a direwolf holding a rose branch on the long table in Winterfell, and told her family that this was her, a rose in the winter snow. , the running wolf among the flowers.

Robert was stunned, his mouth slightly opened, and thousands of words were swallowed into his throat. He sighed, "You are right." The king then remembered that this wine glass was of great significance.

Robert and Eddard sat across from each other, suddenly silent.

Eddard finally spoke up, "I know what Catelyn did. She arrested Tyrion on my orders." Eddard said to Robert, who just frowned slightly and ignored him.

"Speaking of which, I haven't prepared a gift for Lyanna yet," Robert said dejectedly, and Eddard knew he had aroused the sad stag.

Eddard took a long breath. He didn't want to disturb Robert, so he just sat quietly aside, regretting that he mentioned to Robert the wine glass that Lyanna once gave Robert as a gift.

Robert's fat face shook, his expression was heartbroken, "Damn it, Ned, you shouldn't be by my side, Stark shouldn't be by my side, you always remind me of Lyanna, damn it, You deserve seven hells, Ned!"

Ed was a little sorry for arousing Robert's sad past, so he could only try to joke: "Robert, you are the king, and you have come south to ask me for help. No matter how uncomfortable it is, you have to swallow this bitter pill."

Robert was stunned for a moment, and a "hum" laughter gradually came from Robert's mouth. He laughed with his mouth wide open, "Hahahaha! Ned, I was right to bring you to the south. It's too cold in the north. It's so cold for you." Not really kidding, hahahaha!”

Robert's laughter was very contagious, and Eddard felt deeply about it. From living together in the Eagle's Nest to fighting together on the battlefield, Robert was always more popular than him. Yesterday, he could pick up the warhammer and fight with him. The enemy fought bloody battles, and today you can have a drink and talk with the enemy without blood. This is one of the reasons why everyone is convinced that Robert ascended the Iron Throne. Too many enemies have become friends, and the friends are becoming more and more closely connected with Robert. Bo's side.

The door opened at this moment, and Queen Cersei rushed in angrily, "Stark, you drove away my brother!" The Kingsguard behind her followed with helplessness.

"Your Majesty, I'm sorry for telling the queen that the king doesn't see anyone else."

"No one else, Robert, so you sit with the traitor who drove my brother away?" Cersei was furious, and her high-pitched voice echoed through the king's bedroom.

Robert pursed his lips and looked at Ed, "Look, this is my wife."

Ed said solemnly: "The regicides surrounded me in the street and wanted to kill the Prime Minister's men. Isn't this treason?"

"Don't think you did anything good secretly. You caught the Lannister first. I want to warn you that the Lannister must pay its debts!" ​​Cersei pointed her finger at Ed and yelled angrily.

"The little devil is suspected of committing a felony. Caitlin arrested him under my order. He needs to accept the trial of the kingdom." Ed responded calmly.

"Robert!" Cersei screamed.

Robert waved his hand, "Okay, okay, my God, forget you two are captured by the White Walkers, seven hells!" He turned to Ed, "Listen Ned, you have to let you My good wife let Tyrion go. Come on, those accusations you made are just a joke. How could you kill Bran without any injustice?"

"Robert." Eddard wanted to say more.

Robert stamped the ground impatiently, "That's enough, Ned, this is your king's order. I have sent people to Riverrun to preside over the reconciliation. Damn it, the Prime Minister should have done these things for me. You have to learn from this." Stay tuned Jon, do you understand?"

Ed stood up helplessly, "You are the king, of course I listen to you, but the regicide cannot be let go."

"Come on, Ned, Catelyn was at fault in this matter. God, if the regicide kidnaps you, I will never be done with him. Kings will do this, let alone a regicide who doesn't know honor?" Robert shook his head and said to Eddard.

Cersei said coldly: "It's not that my brother doesn't know honor, he just hates fools." Robert slapped her with his backhand and said, "Get out, stupid woman! Are you worthy of being called stupid?"

Half of Cersei's face turned red again, she glanced at Eddard viciously, and turned away.

After a long time, Robert suppressed the fire in his heart. He turned around and said to Eddard: "Look, what a wonderful wife I have."

Ed was about to speak when Robert added, "We are indeed brothers, your Catelyn"

"Damn it!" Ed cursed, "She was on my orders."

"Oh oh oh! Ned, don't say I'm on your orders. I don't want to be brothers with idiots, hahahaha!" Robert strode away, leaving Eddard alone and depressed.

Pycelle stood up and looked at the mess on the bed. The girl was lying topless on the soft pillow.

The Grand Maester flexed his muscles. He was extremely energetic at this time. The bedroom was filled with the smell of perfume, which smelled a bit like a Lysian specialty.

"Child, it's time for you to go." Pycelle said to the girl affectionately.

The girl gently shook her long, lazy and silky hair, and pulled out of the bed silkily, "Reward, my lord." She said.

"It's your first time here and you don't understand the rules yet," Pycelle said gently to the girl, "I usually pay monthly, kid."

The girl shook her head complainingly. "There is no such rule anymore, sir." She put on her clothes. "Even if you are a king, there is no such thing as monthly payment."

"Why not, Lord Baelish? Ahem! I understand, I'm sorry, child." Grand Maester Pycelle said to the girl regretfully.

Pycelle wandered around the bedroom, rummaging through boxes and cabinets, "Ahem!" The Grand Maester's coughing became louder and louder, so much so that the girl covered her mouth and nose.

"Sorry, I need to look for it." Pycelle gave the girl an apologetic smile, but in the girl's eyes, he was no different from most debtors.

"Can you give me money today, my lord?" The girl started to get a little impatient. When she asked the seniors in the brothel how the lords of the Red Castle made money, all she was told was who the generous King Robert had an affair with. Who is the unlucky miser, Archmaester Pycelle? She doesn't believe in evil. She thinks that since she is an important minister of the imperial court, she won't owe money for visiting a brothel. How shameful would it be to tell her about it?
The girl only found out today that such a despicable person really existed.

"Sorry, come back tomorrow and I'll give it to you together then." Pycelle said to the girl with a smile.

The girl hurriedly packed her clothes and left the bedroom in a hurry, swearing in her heart that she would never set foot in this place again.

Pycelle saw the girl moving away, stretching his muscles and sitting on the desk.

Lord Eddard asked him for the book "The Genealogy and History of the Main Nobles of the Seven Kingdoms" that Prime Minister Jon Arryn had read this morning. Pycelle just said that the book was no longer with him and had been sent back to the school. city.

Although Pycelle's body looked shaky, his mind was never slow. He probably guessed what the new Prime Minister was investigating. In addition, Lord Eddard was recently stopped by Sir Jaime at the door of the brothel, which was almost the same as the route of the former Prime Minister.

He breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he had to go to the queen to tell Lannister about the matter again, but when he thought about Queen Cersei without Jaime by his side, he felt that it was unreliable, and decided to write the news into a letter and send it to Tai in the West. Lord Wen.

Pycelle is very aware of the affair between the queen and Ser Jaime, and he is also very aware that Lord Tywin may have known about it for a long time. After all, Lord Tywin and his brother Ser Kevan are like inseparable people, and they have always maintained information and intelligence. Sharing, and coincidentally, Lord Kevan knew about Cersei and Jaime.

Thinking of this, Pycelle stopped writing and said, "It would be safest to write to Sir Kevan." He picked up the pen again.
