Chapter 684 Killing Tyrion

There is no doubt that the capital of the North is Winterfell, but Winterfell is only 300 meters wide and 500 meters long.

As a castle where noble lords lived, it was huge enough.

But if it is the capital city of a country, it is too small to be qualified.

The real Winterfell is actually divided into inner and outer cities, the castle in the inner city, and the town outside the city.

Outside Winterfell, there are neat rows of houses built of logs and natural rocks, and there are many wooden stalls rented out to merchants along the muddy streets.

In summer, the place is very empty, only one-fifth of the houses are occupied by nearby farmers and traders; in winter, it is crowded with people, and even people from the mountain clan from the north of Wolf Forest come here.

However, no city wall was built outside the town. Part of the reason was that they were too poor and the amount of work involved was too large to be built. In Winterfell, there were still many towers that were in disrepair and abandoned!

For example, the place where the story originated: the tower where Cersei and Jaime crackled.

Of course, Stark has a history of ten thousand years, building a ten-meter wall every year, and after thousands of years, he can build a magnificent city.

However, a huge city needs a huge number of soldiers to guard it.

For example, King's Landing has three thousand gold robes.

Winterfell cannot afford to support so many standing troops!

Without the city wall, there is no defense. After the Ironmen, the Skinner, Erlu, and Jon tossed and tossed several times in a row, almost no one was there.

Especially Little Bopi, in order to cover up the truth that he burned Winterfell, he directly slaughtered Winterfell once.

Winter has been here for nearly a year, but the winter town is very empty, with not many people——this winter, more people from the north went to White Harbor, and those who were close to the Great Wall went to Mole Village.

The act of the Dragon Queen distributing silver coins to the night watchmen every month is too extravagant. Thousands of night watchmen are equal to the consumption of tens of thousands of silver deer every month. How many employment opportunities will this generate?

If Dany were to be King of the Seven Kingdoms, she would never give land to the Night's Watch.The old and new land grants, which are larger than the land area of ​​South Korea, can't support a thousand night watchmen!

Although the climate in the northern region is harsh, winter wheat, apple trees, and turnips can all be grown, and there is no shortage of cash crops and food crops!

In the final analysis, it is because of the big pot of rice and the specialization in the art industry.

If the night watchmen can farm the land to support themselves, will they still commit crimes and be arrested as night watchmen?

It is better to raise them with high salaries. High salaries bring high consumption, high consumption brings a large number of employment opportunities, and the population grows accordingly. With the population base, are you afraid that commerce and agriculture will not be able to develop?

Then collect commercial tax and agricultural tax as a lord, and from time to time, engage in real estate in Mole Village

Not to mention the salary of the night watchman, it is estimated that the king can still make a fortune.

"So, no residents in the town hurt the pterosaur, but it might be hurt by the severe cold." The red-faced fat man said.

His name was Theomo, he wore a bachelor's necklace, he was from White Harbor, he had thin lips, a red face, golden curly hair, and he was as fat as Lord Eel.

After the original Maester Luwin of the Stark family was killed by Little Peeling, Winterfell has never introduced new maesters from the Academy City.

Even for a long time, Winterfell was in a barren state because it was burned down by Little Peeling.

As the most affluent fiefdom in the north, White Harbor has prosperous commerce and frequent exchanges with the outside world, so Maester Theomo has many apprentices under his command.

——In fact, Braavos communicated with the ravens in the north through White Harbor as a transit.

After the Dragon Queen revealed the evil side of the Academy City, people all over the world knew that bachelors were not a good thing, and Jon knew it too.But like all nobles, Jon can't live without a bachelor.

So he asked Master Eel to help a long time ago, and arranged for a shrewd and capable apprentice to work as a temporary worker in Winterfell.

When Maester Theomo learned of this, he immediately volunteered.

Master Eel was very unhappy, but he couldn't object.

There is only one maester in Winterfell, but there are two masters, so Theomo often appears in Erlu's guest room castle.

Erlu burned the statues of the Seven Gods and drove away the monks of the Seven Gods, but he still couldn't do without the bachelor.

The vitality of the bachelor is really

"Pterosaurs come from the Sossaros rainforest, and prefer the southern climate with high temperature and high humidity.

Of course, pterosaurs are extraordinary things, and even southerners can come to live in the north, and they can too, but at this time His Majesty Aegon's Balerion suffered heavy losses.

If you do not want to lose that precious pterosaur, you should treat its injuries immediately and build a shelter to avoid the cold. Maester Theomo seriously suggested.

Jon worried: "Will it go mad again?"

"This" the bachelor's red and fat face showed a bit of embarrassment, "I don't know, our bachelors in our school city don't know much about pterosaurs either.

Thousands of years ago, everyone knew that there were pterosaurs in the Sosiros rainforest, but they had never seen pterosaurs before. "

"It's exhausted and won't go mad anymore," Melisandre said.

Then he turned to Erlu and suggested, "Sacrifice to Sean to completely solve future troubles."

When Jon heard this, he became furious.

Before Erlu could speak, he bluntly warned: "Your Majesty Stannis, Priest Melisandre, you must understand that you are only guests of Winterfell!

Theon was never your prisoner, and you have no right to do with him.

I agreed to leave him for your trial only because of my allegiance to you.

Judgment is not the same as execution! "

Erlu's eyes were sharp: "Are you threatening me?"

Jon sighed, his voice slowed down a bit, and asked back: "Your Majesty, do you still count on the promise you made before?

Before entering Winter City, at the request of Tyrion, you promised in front of everyone that you would not sacrifice Ramsay and Theon privately. "

Er Lu stared at Jiong, clenched his jaw, and his teeth creaked.

The Onion Knight hurriedly stood in front of the two of them and said, "Duke Stark, you have misunderstood, His Majesty the King has never thought of breaking promises.

Priest Melisandre only considered it from a professional point of view, and the effect of sacrificing Theon would be the best, but His Majesty has always refused. "

"The pterosaur belongs to my husband. Does the 'ransom' only redeem himself, excluding the pterosaur, armor and weapons?" Sansa dissatisfied.

Well, the tile-steel armor that Aunt Dany prepared for her nephew, and the black fire sword that Illyrio gave to King Aegon, all fell into Erlu's hands.

But Erlu didn't wear armor, nor was he equipped with a black fire sword.

To grab the pterosaur, you can also use the urgency of time as an excuse.

Wearing Aegon's armor is a complete departure from Westeros tradition.

——Unless he, like Tywin, kills Aegon and Aegon's heir.After the heir is extinct, the armor and weapons naturally do not need to be returned.

Davos glanced at the determined Erlu, smiled wryly in his heart, and calmed Sansa with a gentle face, "Your Highness, the pterosaur is too special and precious, unless you exchange it with another pterosaur, any kind of pterosaur The Dragon Queen is not short of one or two pterosaurs, right?"

"It's so shameless, especially shameless!" Sansa's pretty face flushed with anger.

"This is also a custom. The ransom for good armor is high, and the ransom for tile-steel swords will be raised to a higher level." Davos's old face was flushed with embarrassment.

Indeed, a good armor ransom is better.

But since ancient times, there has never been anyone who exchanged armor for armor, and tile steel sword for tile steel sword.

More often than not, out of respect for the defeated, the victor not only refused to accept the ransom, but instead took the initiative to return the relics and remains of the deceased to his family.

For example, Ned.

After Ned killed Arthur Dayne, he obtained the ancestral sword "Dawn" of the Dane family.

There are often tile steel swords, but the white sword Liming is the only one in the world.

Ned never wanted to possess it. Instead, he sent the sword to Dane City immediately, and personally reported Arthur's death and burial place to Arthur's family.

And Earl Dane and Ashara did not resent Ned because he killed his brother on the battlefield. Instead, the two families established a deep friendship.

——Ned entrusted the mother of his illegitimate child, that is, his lover, to Earl Dane; Earl Dane found a good husband for her, helped Ed tidy up perfectly, and named his son Ned.

This is the true way of the knights of Westeros under the doctrine of the Seven Gods.

But now

With an idea, the Onion Knight quickly suggested: "How about using Tyrion's pterosaur to pay off the debt?"

Sansa shook her head and said, "Tyrion won't agree. Moreover, his Tessa also has the seal of the paladin, and neither of you can decipher it."

"Tyrion isn't dead yet?" Davos asked in surprise.

Sansa froze for a moment before realizing that she hadn't seen the dwarf for a long time.

Did it hang up?

She looked at Jon inquiringly.

"Tyrion" thought about it for a while, then said hesitantly, "He probably isn't dead yet! He wasn't dead at the time."

Then, Jon looked at Maggie and the others questioningly.

"Yes."

"Maybe."

"Maybe."

Everyone thought about it.

Meggie scratched her head and said in embarrassment, "Where is Tyrion? I have been concerned about His Majesty Aegon for the past few days, and I forgot about him."

Mormont is an honest man!

Everyone forgot, but she just said it directly.

poor dwarf

The red-faced chubby bachelor said: "Lord Tyrion has burns all over his body and is recuperating in the chapel. I change his dressing every day."

This is the role of a maester. Everyone is focused on King Aegon and forgets about the dwarf, but it is the maester's responsibility to treat the sick, and they will do it consciously without the lord's order.

"So it's in the chapel, no wonder" Jon smiled awkwardly, "how is he doing?"

Stark believed in the old gods. Thousands of years ago, there was no church in Winterfell.

But Caitlin believed in the Seven Gods, so Ed built a chapel for his wife in a remote corner behind the main castle hall.

In Winterfell, only Caitlin believes in the Seven Gods alone. At most, little Sansa has been here a few times with her mother. The location is very remote. No wonder Jon and Meggie have been ignoring dwarves. Not distance.

Maester Theomo glanced at the red-robed woman fearfully, and said with a trembling red and fat face, "Lord Tyrion has fire balm, which is supposed to be a holy medicine for burns, but his wound

The flames went from the inside out, and the viscera were almost scorched. "

"So miserable?" Sansa's pretty face turned pale and she exclaimed.

Meggie glanced at Aunt May quickly, and said in horror: "Tyrion was on fire all over, and when he howled, red fire and black smoke were also sprayed out of his mouth. I thought he was dead."

Melisandre frowned slightly, and said in doubt: "He should have died a long time ago, why can he persist until now? Could it be his physique?"

The red-robed woman has never been a good quarrel, let alone Tyrion has countless damn reasons.

He is a pterosaur knight, the strongest combat force under Aegon's command.

He was very clever, and Aegon relied heavily on him.

He is hostile to Erlu.

He ruined all Erlu's efforts in Heishuihe.

He is ugly and frustrating, but he often stands on tiptoe quietly and peeks at her big white rabbit with lewd eyes.

More importantly, he dared to murder her!
