"I've always told you that in order to be a powerful swordsman, you must have keen perception, act gracefully, and control your fears. We're not learning the dance of steel in Westeros, the dance of knights. , slashing and slashing, but the dance of killers, the dance of water, with agility and surprises." He said solemnly, "This masked knight, he not only has great strength, but also moves very quickly. The gun was unexpected, and until the point, he completely mastered the essence of the rapier. This is a very powerful opponent. In the battle just now, the dance of the knight and the dance of the killer, water and steel were all perfectly combined by him. , It's unprecedented, I really want to challenge him."

Arya was stunned by such a high evaluation, because even for strong men like Jaime Lannister and Ser Gregor the "Magic Mountain", his master had not given such a high evaluation.

"If he compares with you, who is stronger?" Arya asked stupidly.

"Although I don't want to admit it," Scilio Freer shook his head in shame and smiled bitterly, "I'm not his opponent."

Chapter 0184 Sansa and Joffrey

The game of the day ended with only "King Killer" James Lannister, "Hound" Sandor Clegane, "Magic Mountain" Gregor Clegane and the masked knight. .

By this time the moon had already risen and the people were tired, so the king announced that the last three trials would be held until tomorrow morning, before the group competition.The crowd gradually dispersed, and while discussing the grand event of the day and the highlight of the next day, the courtiers and dignitaries went to eat by the river.

As the future princess, Sansa was naturally arranged next to the king and queen, sitting with Prince Joffrey.Since her own direwolf died because of Joffrey, although Sansa yearned for a fairy tale marriage with the prince, and also had a good impression of the handsome Joffrey, she still criticized him at this time, and Joffrey accepted The words that came down made her sense of him even worse.

"How dare that veiled clown insult a prince's fiancée like that," he screeched in a tone never seen before, "my dog ​​will pick him up tomorrow, or so will my uncle James. In a few years, when I can come in, I'll clean him up with my own hands."

This made Sansa very angry, and in front of Sansa, who had completely become a little fan of the masked knight, he called the masked knight a "clown". The images of "beautiful", "brilliant" and "brave and justice" disappeared completely.

At this time, she suddenly realized that Joffrey was not a "Prince Charming" like she imagined. In fact, he was cruel, willful, and small-minded. It can be seen from the incident - it was Joffrey who took the initiative to challenge Arya and her playmates, but he used extra means in the competition, and he was the one who caused himself to be bitten by the wolf, but he was actually able to fight The king lies with his eyes open in front of the king, framing Arya for attacking the prince.

Originally, she had been comforting herself, blaming Arya for all the responsibility for the direwolf's killing, but now it seems...

Sansa's dissatisfaction with Joffrey immediately went out of control at the beginning. She quickly remembered many cruel behaviors of Joffrey on weekdays. People suffering and bad luck, etc. In the past, she would choose to ignore these details, or find an excuse for her fiancé to explain, but now, she suddenly felt that she saw this person clearly.

Sansa's naive romantic fantasies about handsome princes, noble knights and love have been shattered. She also thinks of her sister Arya. Although she often does not deal with herself, she is a The relatives who have always been good to themselves, as well as their father, several older brothers and younger brothers, are the ones who truly love and treat themselves well.

Immediately afterwards, she remembered what her father once said: "We have come to a dark and dangerous place, this is not Winterfell. There are too many enemies who want to kill us, and we cannot kill each other.", "When the snow falls , the cold wind blows, lone wolves die, and wolves live in groups.", "You and Arya may be very different, but the same blood flows in the body after all."

Is King's Landing really a dark and dangerous place?

Originally, she didn't believe her father's words, because she always thought that Joffrey was the prince charming in fairy tales, and his mother Queen Cersei was also an elegant and beautiful lady, but now she is not so sure. .

For the first time, she no longer yearned for life in King's Landing, nor did she yearn to become a queen as much as she used to. She began to miss Winterfell, the warm home in the city that was always in the harsh winter.

Ye Ting never imagined that his act of whim when playing the "Masked Knight" actually made the original book so innocent, even to the point of being a little ridiculous, pitting his father and being called "two Silly" Sansa Stark sees some of the real world ahead of time.

In the original book, it was precisely because Sansa herself did not understand the form in King's Landing, nor the darkness of human nature. Because she trusted Prince Joffrey and Queen Cersei too much, his father's plan was leaked, and King's Landing died tragically. The Stark family fell apart.

However, maybe this time, half of the Stark family died tragically, generally disappeared, and the ending of almost genocide may change.

But even if he knew everything, he wouldn't care, because the future chaos of the Seven Kingdoms could not be prevented by the Stark family's preservation of power.

On the contrary, if Stark's power is preserved, then the wishful thinking of the mastermind behind this chaos will be miscalculated, and the chaos will still occur, but the strength of the various forces in the mastermind's plan will no longer be as he imagined. .

Although Sansa has a certain degree of dissatisfaction with Prince Joffrey, she is now the prince's fiancee and a traditional lady. She did not quarrel with Joffrey tit-for-tat, and could only express her feelings towards the prince through silence. dissatisfied.

However, such silence angered the cruel and impatient Prince Joffrey even more. When he found out that the girl was ignoring him, he immediately became angry, "Look, you little Bitch, see how I am tomorrow. Torturing your 'masked knight', I'll let 'The Mountain' break his limbs, you know he can do it, and then this 'masked knight' will lose all his fame, who likes a limb What about the crippled cripple? He'll turn into a penniless beggar, and then I'll buy him into the court and make him a eunuch, like Varys, and I'll torture him in front of you—this It's the fate of offending the prince."

"No—" Sansa's exclamation blurted out. Today, she had seen how the "Magic Mountain" killed the young knight of Arryn Valley, and she thought that the real knight in her mind would suffer worse than him. The fate of her heart shuddered.

"No! You can't do that with the seven gods," she pleaded, grabbing Joffrey's sleeve, "you're a prince on the top, and he's just an ordinary knight, why are you so cruel to a man? Have you ever met someone before? Have mercy..."

However, her attitude made Joffrey even more angry, he shook off Sansa's hand, pursed his mouth and said cruelly: "Shut up, you Bitch, how dare you refute your future husband, you wait Well, I'm going to give you a gift tomorrow, the gift you want most."

Saying so, Joffrey walked away.

Chapter 0185 Sisters Harmony

Sansa had already guessed what Joffrey meant, but she couldn't do anything about it, because she had neither the power to rebel against him nor the men who could stop it, his friend Jenny and the nun who took care of her. She is just a weak woman, and she can't even tell the "Masked Knight" this news, because as the prince's fiancee, she is surrounded by the king's subordinates.

She found that in reality she was so weak and helpless.

My "masked knight", you are so heroic and personable, but why did you suffer such a fate.

The seven gods are above, who can tell me, what should I do?

Suddenly, she thought of an acquaintance she saw in another corner of the auditorium today, her sister, Arya.

At that time, after she saw Arya, she also laughed at her duplicity with Jenny, because Arya once said that fighting between knights is a boring act, and she would rather practice swords by herself than come to watch the game.

However, now she thinks that if Arya, who has been naughty and likes to run around, will be able to find the "masked knight" to remind him before tomorrow's game starts.

However, now she and Arya are still in the stage of a cold war. They are dissatisfied with each other. She thinks Arya killed her direwolf, but the latter feels that her sister was in her and Joffrey. The prince chose not to help each other and did not tell the truth to testify for himself. He was a traitor.

Although later, under the mediation of their father Eddard Stark, the two girls forgave each other a little, but neither of them took the first step due to the face and long-term dislike of each other.

So now, does she really want to put down her face and apologize to her sister?In this case, Arya will definitely laugh at her.

Do not!What if it's even being laughed at by Arya?In order to save the life and dignity of the "Masked Knight", what's the point of losing a little face?

If she can't bear even this insult, how can she talk about saving the "Masked Knight", and how can it be worthy of the white rose that the "Masked Knight" gave her today?

At this moment, Sansa suddenly felt that she had become noble, and she was like a brave noble lady in a fairy tale, defying difficulties and dangers to save her knight.

So, she stood up immediately, advanced her skirt, and walked in the direction of her father. She knew that once the banquet was over and she was taken back to the Red Fort, she would have no chance.

Soon, he found Arya in a corner of the banquet. She was like a wild child, holding the leg of lamb with some rude hands and chewing it in her mouth. She also had the "seam" around her waist. Clothes Needle".

As usual, Sansa would accuse her of eating out of style and not being a lady, but now she couldn't care less.

"Listen, my sister," she begged, grabbing Arya's oily hand hastily, "I need you to do me a favor, I want you to pass the message on to—someone, one I don't have. Can you help me with the people I can get in touch with?"

"Does the 'future queen' also need my help from the troublemaker Arya?" Arya squinted at Sansa and asked in a somewhat sarcastic tone: "You shouldn't be with your white horse now. Is the prince together? If you need help, you can go to him, anyway, your 'future queen' is on the side with him, I am a wild child only worthy of your servant."

"He's not a Prince Charming!" Sansa blushed a little, she knew that her sister hated Prince Joffrey the most, and their sisters' conflict was also because of him. Moreover, after listening to her sister's words, she had never hated Joe as much as she did now. Fry, all the good things he had in her mind before had become so ugly.

"It's you who caused the two of us to have such a big conflict." She thought angrily and aggrieved.
