Under Arya's deliberate propaganda, the name "Knight of Blue Silver" spread, because of his beautiful silver armor, everyone felt that this title was better than "Masked Knight" .

In addition, some good people also called him the first knight of the Seven Kingdoms-because at least in terms of combat effectiveness, no knights of the Seven Kingdoms were unmatched.

However, although the title of "First Knight of the Seven Kingdoms" has spread, it has not been widely recognized, because now, he has only proved himself on the field, if he can still be on the battlefield or other life and death situations Continue to maintain such achievements in the war, then this title can be regarded as worthy of the name.

For such a young master, Prime Minister Ed and King Robert were very fond of him. After the game, Ed sent someone to ask him if he was interested in taking a position in the Prime Minister's bodyguard, so he readily agreed. .

In fact, in addition to him, Ed also recruited many players who were among the best in the tournament, but there were very few followers. Most of them were immersed in wine, victory, and the wealth they had just won, which they could never dream of. , therefore rejected the job.

This greatly increased Ed's affection for this victorious young man. Since he heard that he was only fifteen years old, Ed even gave birth to the idea of ​​introducing his other daughter Arya to him.

However, since Arya is only nine years old, and noble girls generally don't get engaged until they are about twelve years old, and they don't get married until they are able to bear children at the age of thirteen or fourteen, so his plan was abandoned.

However, Ed still wanted to let these young people get to know each other first, so he arranged for Sand Leaf to become a captain in the Prime Minister's Guard, responsible for protecting his family or himself - long before the Dragon Cult came The full background of Sandleaf is arranged.

In fact, Robert had also thought about making this young master his Kingsguard, but because the Kingsguard's oath included no lands, no wives, and no children, he had to give up.

Now this result, of course, is in the plan of Sander Reeve, that is, Ye Ting, because Ed himself is one of the important targets of the mastermind behind the Seven Kingdoms Rebellion, and now he is very close to the core of this Game of Thrones. , Only here can he successfully add fuel to the chaos in the future.

Chapter 0192 Eddard Stark's Trouble

Ever since he agreed to Robert's request and became the "Hand of the King", Eddard Stark discovered that the entire city of King's Landing was so foggy that he, a wolf from the north, was a little overwhelmed.

As the head of this generation of the Stark family, Eddard inherited the family's tradition of honor and impartiality.However, King's Landing and Winterfell are two cities, and there are too many intrigues and conspiracies here.Eddard is confident that he can do anything on the battlefield, no matter what kind of enemy he can fight against, but in the game of power in King's Landing, he seems confused and lost.

This feeling, from the time he began to investigate the previous "Hand of the King", himself and Robert's adoptive father, the death of Jon Arryn, has piled up a haze in his heart.

The first was the arrival of his wife, Catelyn Tully, and the one who brought him to meet his wife in secret was the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Petyr Baelish, "Littlefinger" who had been the adopted son of his father-in-law when he was young, "Littlefinger" "Having been deeply infatuated with Caitlin Tully, Eddard didn't like him.

According to Catelyn, his son Bran Stark was assassinated immediately after his immediate Winterfell, and the killer was executed on the spot, leaving only a dagger, and "Littlefinger" said that this The dagger belonged to another son of Tywin Lannister, the younger brother of Cersei and Jaime Lannister, Tyrion Lannister "the little devil".

This is an extraordinary accusation, because the Lannister family and the Stark family, as the guardians of the west and the north of the Seven Kingdoms, are among the top lords. Such an assassination may mean another sweep of the Seven Kingdoms. The Great War of the Nation - as it was fifteen years ago.

Due to Littlefinger's help and the former sibling bond between Littlefinger and his wife, Eddard reluctantly regarded him as an ally and with his help investigated the cause of Jon Arryn's death.In the process, "Littlefinger" said something meaningful: "Don't trust me, it's the smartest thing you've ever done since you jumped off your horse."

During the investigation, he discovered that Jon died suddenly, and he had been quite healthy until then, which allowed him to establish the fact that Jon was murdered to death.Jon had been secretly investigating Robert's illegitimate children before his death, and met several of them. He also had a secret meeting with Robert's younger brother, Stannis, and had planned to send his son to Dragonstone. The island was adopted by Stannis, but they had never known each other in the past, all of which made the investigation into a dead end.

To make matters worse, however, at the ensuing Tournament, Gregor the Mountain actually killed a young knight from the Vale of Arryn who was an important witness in his investigation and was now arrested by Lan The Niest family's subordinates were so silent-you know, unlike the team competition, the weapons in the knight duel competition are specially made training supplies, which are generally unlikely to cause human life-this casts a haze on his investigation. .

However, it is not without good news. In the tournament, through the conversation with King Robert, he confirmed once again that his king is essentially the same outgoing and charming good friend fifteen years ago, which made him I have more confidence in my future as the "Hand of the King".

There is more than one piece of good news. During the competition, he was happy to find that his two daughters, who had never dealt with each other, were finally reconciled. In addition, he also gained a general at the competition—one who swept the entire competition. Three champions of the conference, knights from free trade city-states.The only thing that worries him is that this boy is really handsome, and his two daughters seem to be a little too obsessed with him.

However, on the night of the end of the Tournament, the intelligence chief, the eunuch Varys, met with him in secret and told him of a shocking conspiracy: Queen Cersei actually attempted to murder the king.

Before the Tournament, King Robert once expressed his desire to participate in the real team competition in person, but Cersei vehemently opposed it. Varys claimed that Cersei tried to ensure that Robert could really participate in the team competition through aggressive methods, and Want him to die "accidentally" in it.

It sounded ridiculous, but Ed had to admit that for Robert, a self-proclaimed heroic man, the aggressive approach worked.

Later, Varys told Eddard that his own allegiance was in the interests of the entire kingdom; and told Eddard that Cersei feared him precisely because the king would not harm him for any reason.At the same time, he revealed that the important officials around the king had different thoughts, the fact that the Kingsguard had a false reputation, the king's two younger brothers hated Cersei, but they coveted the throne even more. , Among the Kingsguard, Jaime is the Queen's elder brother, Ser Barristan only loves his own honor, Ser Boros and Ser Marin are loyal to the Queen, and the others are unclear.

In other words, the only one who is really on Robert's side now is Ed, who is "Hand of the King" and a long-time friend.

When Eddard asked about the cause of Jon Arryn's death, Varys said that a poison called Tears of Rhys killed him.Varys claimed to be Arryn's squire, the now dead knight from Arryn's Vale who had given him the medicine.

However, about Cersei's conspiracy, because it was just speculation, Eddard couldn't bring it up to the king, so he could only give up, but he knew that he had to be more careful.

At this time, Ed, even gave birth to the idea of ​​letting his two daughters return to Winterfell temporarily.

However, when he returned to his prime minister's tower, the scene in front of him still made him quite gratified.

His third daughter, Arya, dressed like a boy, was practicing the rapier under the guidance of her new guard, Sander Leif, while the second daughter, Sansa, was sitting by the side, looking at them with a smile, The scene is harmonious.

The warm scene at home made Ed feel warm, and at this time - even though the relationship between Sander and his two daughters was a little too good, he reluctantly accepted that the guard in front of him was from Essos, and Lannister. He has nothing to do with his family at all, so he should be trustworthy. In addition, he has such martial arts skills. At a critical moment, the safety of his two daughters is estimated to depend on him.

And he himself must find out as soon as possible what Jon Arryn was looking for before his death. He had a hunch that this secret was the key to everything.

What he didn't know, however, was that in the North, his wife Catelyn Tully spotted Tyrion Lannister on the way back to Winterfell and captured him in one fell swoop.

Chapter 0193 "Behind the scenes" Baelish

After becoming Duke Stark's bodyguard, Ye Ting was surprised to find that Stark's two daughters had an unusually high opinion of him. Before that, he also met each of the two girls separately. On the one hand, but now the eyes of the two girls looking at him are full of kindness, admiration and shyness, which makes him a little inexplicable.

However, perhaps in this world, he was accustomed to girls' inexplicable self-defense and free giving. Ye Ting didn't struggle with this for a long time, but happily accepted the fact, so he lived a life surrounded by two girls. Life.

Arya asks him to teach swordsmanship every day. In the process of teaching, he inevitably scratches and bumps, which makes Ye Ting have to tell himself a hundred times a day: "She is only nine years old, she is still a child, three years old. Nian... No, I must let her go."

As for Sansa, she completely gave up the social and banquet life she had longed for in the past few days with other noble ladies and ladies. Instead, she stayed at home to "accompany her sister", and then seduced him twenty times a day. , if he hadn't cared about the existence of other guards and servants, then he would have made a decisive move.

Such an ambiguous life is quite pleasant, especially Eddard Stark is busy with government affairs every day, and he has to investigate and secretly visit Jon Arryn's life, leaving early and returning late every day.Unfortunately, Ye Ting had to temporarily interrupt his life for a day and asked Ed for a leave.

Then, he immediately went out of the city and secretly went to the Eagle's Nest City.

The reason is that something happened in the Seven Kingdoms that could affect the entire political situation.

Tyrion Lannister is captured by Eddard Stark's wife, Catelyn.

This is a big deal.

Because both of the two involved are big princes of the Seven Kingdoms, and although Tyrion is not favored by Duke Tywin, he is still his son-in-law, which is likely to lead to a confrontation between the two.

Catelyn was undoubtedly wise, and she did not bring Tyrion back to Winterfell, but to the Vale, the Eagle's Nest in the Vale of Arryn, because her sister Lysa Tully was there, and due to the fact that Lysa Tully was there. Sha married the old Jon Arryn and gave birth to a son for him, so after Jon died, her son inherited the title of Vale and Jon, but because the child was still young, Lysa herself became the de facto controller of the valley.

You must know that in the Seven Kingdoms, in addition to the kings directly under the royal family, there are a total of eight major families that control the eight major territories. The valley controlled by the Aylin family belongs to one of them, and the other families are the Northland controlled by the Stark family. , the Lannisters control the West, the Baratheons—that is, Robert’s home—control the Stormlands, the Tullys control the Riverlands, the Greyjoys control the Iron Islands, Tyrell The southern border controlled by the family, and finally Dorne controlled by the Martell family.

This is an extremely powerful force.

In the Vale of Arryn, Lysa warmly received her sister, and then, according to her sister's request, she proposed the trial of Tyrion Lannister in the Eagle's Nest.
