The king on the Great Wall

As for what form and when the signal would appear, even the old earl himself could not say clearly.

Time is still passing day by day, and Iger's confidence in the plan he proposed is fading day by day. He suddenly realizes that he is actually suspected of being "on paper". The path of the Vale of Arryn, but can the elite troops Robert sent into the mountains catch them who are good at guerrilla warfare?Is the trail easy to walk?Is there an army from the Alliance of the Righteous at the end of the road?

In fact, I don't know anything, but boldly bet on the "records in the history books", pinning the hope that these battles are all true and can be reproduced in the Vale of Arryn in another world.

This anxiety lasted until the sixth day after offering the plan.

On this day, Iger was invited to have an afternoon drink with the Earl of Buckwell. He heard the old man complaining about the military expenditure and the harvest in the territory being affected by the war. Suddenly, there was a long and long sound of the horn outside the tent, followed by the sound of people's footsteps , the neighing of war horses... and the dull and monotonous sound of horseshoes from the ground, and the accompanying vibrations.

"What's going on?" The old earl and Iger got out of the tent and asked loudly to the soldiers outside.

"My lord, the central army has sent a banner, the whole army is attacking, take the siege ladder!"

No need to ask any more, the shouts of killing from the direction of the Blood Gate have already explained everything - the daily "siege" of the rotating army today has ended, and there is clearly a soldier of the Six Nations Allied Forces in the small square inch in front of the Blood Gate None, where did the shouts come from?The troops after taking a detour have arrived at the Blood Gate!

"Damn... Iger, you stay in the barracks, I have to follow, Robert will definitely lead the attack himself, this is a good time to get credit for it!" The old earl said this to Iger, without stopping to greet him. To the chaotic army of Antlers Fort: "Don't mess! Find the immediate commander and don't lose your weapons. Formation! Formation!"

"His Majesty the King has rushed over with the cavalry!"

"Seven Gods! Don't worry, keep pace! Let's go, and the ones behind will follow! Don't lose your sword and armor!"

What does it look like to charge with tens of thousands of people?Iger saw it soon, and Yoren was also led out of the tent by the sound. As night watchmen, they were the only ones in the coalition army camp who could watch the show with peace of mind, without worrying about "credit". They came On the slope closest to the Antler Fort army, overlooking the battlefield from afar.

The king's cavalry led by Robert himself rushed to the forefront. No one dared to compete with the king for the first place. The guards were beside him. The white robes of the Kingsguard were quite dazzling in the sun. They pierced straight like a sharp knife. Close to the gate of blood, but the rain of arrows and rocks that used to hit the top of the city has disappeared—the defenders are fighting with the heavenly soldiers coming from behind.

Behind the cavalry were countless infantrymen who had almost lost their formation all over the mountains and plains.As a large number of elites and military officers went into the mountains to find paths, the poorly trained peasants and soldiers were in a mess at the moment. On weekdays, such a messy attack would be useless except for killing people—but today , as long as everyone runs fast enough to climb the wall before the blood gate defenders drive the raid team off the wall, the war will be over!

"My God..." Iger also became a little nervous. When fighting, the king rushed to the front. This may be a kind of romance in this era, but it is really a bad habit in the eyes of the traversers, and it is also the helplessness of soldiers with insufficient training. Move: "Robert, don't put yourself in it."

"Don't worry, although I haven't fought a few battles, I can see it much more clearly. I can figure it out with my toes. The moment the rebels are touched from behind their buttocks but they don't realize it, the victory or defeat has already been decided." gone."

The cavalry charged through the ditch, which had been almost filled, to the walls of the Blood Gate, and Robert and the Kingsguard... and more of the King's Lander dismounted.Although they reached the finish line first, they were unable to climb up the bloody gate with their hands and feet before the infantry carried the ladders. However, a solution soon appeared: when the previous attempt to attack the city failed, a ladder was abandoned under the city wall, picked it up and shook it Drop some blood and mud, and it'll work right away!

Under the distant gaze of the two night watchmen and the attendant Casey, an unidentified white robe climbed up the ladder first to the top of the gate of blood. After guarding the top of the ladder, Robert's fat figure came second Started to climb the ladder... When he also climbed the bloody door, and even the second and more ladders were put on the wall but no one was there to control the battle, the suspense had been lost.

The shouts of killing gradually subsided. After all, the blood gate defenders and Robert's army did not have any deep hatred. Some of them might even have fought side by side during the Reaver's War. Seeing that nothing could be done, surrender became the only choice. Half an hour later, the flags of the Alliance of the Righteous Ones were lowered at the head of the Blood Gate, and a crowned stag flag was fluttering.

-

Chapter 116 Breakthrough, take back?

The Blood Gate fell, but the specific process was completely different from what everyone had expected.

For reasons that Iger did not consider in advance, the elite troops sent into the mountains according to his plan to pursue and suppress the tribes of the Gaoshan clan did not go well: these aborigines in the mountains have brought Mao Zedong's tactical thinking to the extreme and are familiar with the terrain. They swam without fighting, and never confronted Robert's loyal army head-on. When the members of the lookout clan spotted the soldiers from afar, they immediately ran away with a family and all their belongings...Thousands of coalition troops The soldiers went into the mountains for several days, but they didn't catch half of the mountain clan members alive... If this continues, the [-]-day time limit given by Robert is not enough at all.

But just when the execution of the plan was in trouble, the army led by Robb Stark accidentally bumped into an old elder——Brynden Tully, the current Lord of the Riverlands and the only member of the Lulang Osprey Grand Alliance. The younger brother of senator Horst Tully, nicknamed "Blackfish".

Because of discord with his elder brother, "Black Fish" left the riverland and went to the valley to join Lysa many years ago, and was appointed by her husband Jon Arryn as the Knight of the Blood Gate to guard the entrance of the valley.As Lysa Tully's uncle, Blackfish certainly couldn't rebel against his niece—when the Alliance of the Righteous launched a mutiny, Brynden tried to command his soldiers to repel the rebels, but found that nothing could be done, so he decisively turned around and ran away Lu, escaped from the pass through the secret passage inside the Blood Gate, and got into the Mingyue Mountains.After hiding from the Gaoshan clan for more than a month in the vast mountains, he was lucky enough to run into Robb, the younger generation who came from the mountains.

Heiyu has been guarding the Blood Gate for more than ten years, and Heiyu may not have much idea of ​​how to break through it head-on, but when it comes to "how to detour to the back of the Blood Gate", how many people in the world can compare with this old guy?Therefore, the genuine "Supreme Chief of the Original Blood Gate Guard" led hundreds of soldiers, and walked around to the back of the Blood Gate as if he was wandering in his own home, and was not found until he began to climb the Guanlou.

……

It was indeed Iger's strategy that helped Robert win the bloody door, but the person who contributed the most was actually a person who had never entered the coalition camp, let alone participated in a combat meeting.

Brynden Tully escaped from the bloody wedding by urinating in the TV series. In the original book, he also escaped from the city of Riverrun that surrendered to Jaime. Even though the world of ice and fire has been turned upside down by the butterfly effect, he That amazing ability to escape can still shine, Iger thinks—he shouldn't be called "Black Fish", but "Loach".

***

After the Blood Gate was captured, it took half a day for the counter-insurgency army. Hundreds of strong men took turns to dig inside and outside at the same time, and cleared the blocked passage of the city gate—this time was much shorter than expected. When Iger heard this news, he couldn't help but feel scared: when Robert took down the bloody gate, he found that the inside of the blocked city gate had been dug out more than half.I learned from the captives that they started dredging the city gate on the day they saw the traces of "disbanding" in the counter-insurgency army. If it appears in a few days, the coalition forces stationed at Taniguchi are likely to be attacked by the rebels at night!

It is conceivable that a coalition army camp with tens of thousands of soldiers but with different affiliations, and the officers, elite veterans, and knights are all absent, if it is attacked by surprise, the ending will be defeated without any suspense. Even Iger and Yoren Such "innocent people" may be injured or even killed in the chaos.

Fortunately, there are no assumptions in history.

After taking down the Blood Gate, the coalition forces unified their caliber: King Robert personally led his troops to capture this dangerous hurdle that has never been broken through the ages.

Although the fact is that "the Blackfish loyal to Lysa Tully led troops back to the Blood Gate", although the battle was coming to an end when Robert climbed to the top of the city, and although His Majesty the King announced his surrender before he had time to kill the enemy... But Robert did arrive at the battlefield before the end of the battle, and it was indeed he who "hands-on" hung up the crowned and stag flag that flew first. Blood gate, it's not a problem.

Now that everyone has reached a tacit agreement, the direction of public opinion has been determined: Robert has fulfilled his wish and became the first king to break through the Blood Gate in a thousand years.

Iger didn't feel anything about it, it was just an empty title, so what if it was given to him?Wouldn't everyone be happy to make this stupid king happy and let him give him more rewards?

……

After the Blood Gate, the entire valley opened its arms to the coalition forces. Thousands of rebels stationed in the valley and at the foot of the "Giant's Spear" found that the Blood Gate had fallen, and surrendered decisively without any hesitation. Two days after the Blood Gate City was broken, The Vale was completely in Robert's hands.

Only the Eagle's Nest City is left. To reach it, one has to go through the Gate of the Moon Fort. The owner of the castle is also named Royce. It wasn't the same team. Until Robert led the army to the Gate of the Moon Castle, none of the lords here publicly declared their support for the Alliance of the Righteous, and the castle was not captured.

After passing through the moon gate, you can go to Eagle's Nest City, but you can only go up the mountain along a very narrow goat road. Under normal circumstances, it will take half a day. Under the long-range attack of the three purely military fortresses of Sky Fort, the good news is that none of the controllers of these fortresses joined the Alliance of the Righteous. Maybe they had sympathized with and secretly supported the "rebels", but with the stag holding the crown The Allied Forces of the Six Nations under the banner arrived at the foot of the mountain and turned into loyal vassals of Duke Arryn one after another.

Lysa Tully refused to believe that the "rebellion" had been quelled, and still hid in the Eagle's Nest City, not daring to go down the mountain, but as the food in the castle ran out, no matter what, this counter-rebellion war that affected the Seven Kingdoms and lasted nearly two months , will soon draw a not-so-satisfactory full stop.

***

The celebration banquet was held in a field in the Vale of Arryn where you can overlook the Giant's Lance. During the day, you can enjoy the high mountains. The shining silver ribbon on the cliff contrasts sharply with the dark rock, shining brightly in the sun.

At night, this place became the scene of the largest bonfire carnival in the history of the Seven Kingdoms. Once the Blood Gate was broken, the princes of the Alliance of the Righteous moved out of the castle and hid the wealth and supplies in the Vale of Arryn, which became the pockets of the counter-rebellion army—— The families that participated in the mutiny were all the most powerful families in the valley, and the total value of the trophies was as high as more than [-] golden dragons... so much money, I am afraid that even the Duke of Arryn could not get it all at once.Although it can't be compared with the real big guys like Lannister and Tyrell, it is more than enough to pay the army for less than ten days. With a wave, it was all rewards from the coalition soldiers and nobles.

A king who is not short of money!Not only did Robert's prestige not drop due to the unsatisfactory battle in the early stage, but it even rose even higher!

……

After the reward and praise for the number one hero, Sir "Blackfish" Brynden, Iger, the number two hero, also stood in the center of the big tent. This time, not only Robert smiled at him, but even the princes of the six countries who sat around Stare at him with interest.

Sensitive politicians can already perceive that the peace among the Seven Kingdoms is facing a precarious situation-in case of a war, if there is such a person who is good at strategizing in the rear to make an idea in any army, the chances of winning will increase greatly.What's more, this person is also the protagonist of a well-known adventure legend, and he can fight the famous Dorne "Red Viper" for dozens of rounds without losing the wind?

A celebrity with both civil and military skills, even if he does nothing in this bad era, just being in one camp is a huge boost to morale and a powerful deterrent to the enemy!

It's a pity that he is a night watchman, and no one can recruit him.

……

"White Ghost Killer," Robert likes to call Igger by this nickname, maybe because he thinks it's cool: "Although it was Sir Blackfish who led the way to the Bloody Gate in the end, you have contributed a lot to your idea. What do you want? Just open your mouth, as long as it’s not too far-fetched, I, as a king, will satisfy you!”

As long as it's not too outrageous, you are satisfied!

This sentence sounds so arrogant, but it happened to come from Robert Baratheon's mouth. There is no doubt about its gold content. The big tent that was originally noisy and messy suddenly fell silent, and everyone's eyes were focused on the middle. On the young man in black.

What would a night watchman want?

-

Chapter 117 Privileges!

Outside the tent, the loud roars and cheers of the carnival soldiers came through the curtains, in stark contrast to the silence inside the tent. Under the gaze of countless nobles, Iger's body began to tremble slightly—he didn't expect Robert To think of meritorious deeds and rewards in this form of "letting you make a wish", so that some people are not prepared enough.

Your Majesty, please remove my night watchman status!

This sentence almost blurted out, but reason pulled Iger one last time.

Does this claim count as "outrageous" for Robert?Iger couldn't make a judgment, but he knew that Robert had the strength to make this decision. If he declared that Iger was a free man from today, one of the citizens of the Seven Kingdoms, Mormont would never dare to publicly answer half a "no." "Character.

But how did Ed pass that level?As the prime minister of a country, he has the right to refute and push back the king's decrees and decisions. From a legal point of view-the king has the right to support illegitimate children as orthodox, but he is not qualified to pardon the night watchman to take off his black clothes. It has been the practice for thousands of years. in this way.If Ed insisted on following the rules, Robert wouldn't take any reason at all... Even if the "king's authority" defeated the "prime minister's uprightness" in the end, he would become Ed's thorn in his side, and as a citizen of the Seven Kingdoms, he would be offended If you become the prime minister, can you have a good life?

Also, what about the night watchman industry?He has regained his freedom, but he has no reason to deal with and manage this fledgling manufacturing enterprise and financial empire. At this time, Mormont can send anyone here, and he can take all the property in the name of the Night Watchman. Let's go, Ed Stark may even help in it, preventing himself from transferring assets!

Moreover, regardless of other people's ideas and objective conditions, just from a personal subjective point of view-Iger has gradually become accustomed to the identity of the night watchman, and has begun to enjoy the many privileges of wearing black and being the chief logistics officer.Not to mention too much, just the "never need to go to the battlefield" alone is enough to benefit yourself for a lifetime in this era when human life is as cheap as grass.

[Not subject to any power, don't look at anyone's face, don't obey anyone's order...] A smart person can see how much development potential these rules have... Wearing black, although taking an oath, but The privileges he enjoys are far from being replaced by a useless "citizenship". With his current special status, he is the only one in the Seven Kingdoms who can really "rely on his own" to obtain an upward channel and status people.

(Take the initiative to throw away this advantage and start mixing with civilians?)

It’s hard for Iger to imagine—what kind of risks and efforts will I have to go through after I give up my identity as a night watchman, so that I can stand again among the actual controllers of the seven kingdoms around me, and exchange cups with a bunch of knights and earls Talking and laughing, even face to face with the king?

***

"What?" Robert was impatient, but compared to his performance at the last battle meeting, this time he treated the hero who saved his face very gently: "If you don't think about it for a while, then go to the side Sit for a while, drink some wine and eat some meat, and then talk to me after you think about it."

"No, Your Majesty, I've made up my mind." Iger raised his head, trying to suppress his excitement and nervousness: "You said that I can do whatever I want, there is no limit to the quantity."

"Well... no, but it's too outrageous. Let's add a limit. Three things that don't violate the law and the oath of the night watchman."

"I only want two things." Iger secretly called out luck, determined to retreat.In fact, he only needs one piece, but he needs another piece as a foreshadowing and cover: "The first piece, the Alchemist Guild in the center of King's Landing, has long been ordered by you to keep the wildfire left by the previous dynasty. The south is a dangerous product, but it can be quite stable in the cold and imperiled Great Wall. I would like to ask Your Majesty to order that the Alchemist Guild deal with the wildfires hidden in King's Landing City as soon as possible, leaving only assistants to manage them, and the master who is familiar with wildfire preparation—— Pyromancers, go to the Night's Watch Grant in the north to craft this weapon for the Wall Garrison."

"Write it down!" As long as the money is not discussed, Robert heaved a sigh of relief and glanced at the attendants beside him: "What about the second one?"

"More than [-] savages outside the Great Wall are eager to move, and urgently need support, but the Iron Throne... can't help." Iger wanted to say that the financial difficulties were difficult, but he had to change his words because he was afraid that Robert would not be able to accept such a blunt exposure. I understand the difficulties, so I decided to be self-reliant - I established a management logistics department, and I am trying to raise funds, purchase food and supplies, and train recruits with my own efforts in King's Landing City."

Most of the people present were familiar with the night watchman industry, and even Robert himself had heard sporadic news.After all, every book on the market, including the little yellow booklet, has the publisher's small print on the back cover: "Well—let's go on."

"But there is one thing that is really annoying." This matter is of great importance, and Iger has to say a lot of nonsense to cover up his true intentions: "All business operations that provide logistical support for the Night Watchman are actually like ordinary businessmen. Paying taxes to the Iron Throne—it was supposed to be the Iron Throne who funded the Night Watchmen to fight against the White Walkers, but now it’s the other way around. The money we finally earned has to be partly fed back to the Iron Throne instead of being fully converted to the Great Wall supplies..."

"Okay, the night watchman buys food, grass, and armaments... oh...forget it, all activities carried out by the night watchman within the territory of the Seven Kingdoms are tax-free!"

Robert was more upbeat than he imagined, but as soon as the words were out of his mouth, amidst the uniform soft exclamations and air-conditioning sounds of the surrounding nobles from the seven countries, the king, who was not yet in a daze, finally realized something was wrong: "Wait a minute... No names are allowed, only the real night watchmen who have sworn to see the Great Wall... can be exempted from tax if they personally handle the activities!"

"Your Majesty!" The Kingsguard was obliged to advise the king's absurd behavior, and Barristan, who was standing beside him, was a little anxious: "The rules are for taking advantage of loopholes, and these restrictions you imposed have no effect at all--I swear, Then go to the Great Wall to stay for two days to be plated with gold, and from then on, all activities carried out by this person will no longer need to pay taxes? In less than ten years, His Majesty's subjects will all become night watchmen!"

Robert also found that there was something wrong with his words, but he was a man, and as long as he was a man, he would face the dilemma of "death to face and suffer" after boasting, and he couldn't take back his words: "That's all! White Ghost Killer !Only you, personally handle the activities, do not need to pay taxes!"

"Your Majesty!" The old Kingsguard couldn't laugh or cry. This restriction seems very strict, but in fact it is still useless, but the ending will become——but within ten years, all the seven kingdoms will become night watchmen under Iger.Complete tax-free privileges should never have appeared in Westeros under the feudal system!

"Enough, don't say it!" Westeros' first irascible old man broke out again, and he paused the wine glass in his hand again, splashing the wine: "White Ghost Killer, I am here to warn you in advance that this privilege It is for you alone, you are not allowed to assign or allow other people to enjoy it! It’s too outrageous to play, but I will take it back!”

Setting a vague bottom line—just like the right of final interpretation, anyway, this is a useful restriction, Barristan sighed, and did not disobey the already angry Robert.

"Okay, let's go." Robert looked a little unhappy, but today was a good day after all. He drank the rest of the wine in his glass, and the alcohol quickly paralyzed his annoyance: "Next, Robb—what do you want?" ? Don’t dawdle like the guy in front of you!”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Iger suppressed his ecstasy and retreated to his seat.Originally, he just wanted to fight for the tax exemption of the factory under the name of the night watchman industry, but he didn't know that the reward was far more than that - to give himself a personal tax exemption privilege. With this thing, as long as Mormont is awake, he will never have to worry about it. Will be vacated or recalled!As for the restrictions: in the future, I will probably have to run around frequently so that I can continue to add "tax-free" buffs to the ever-expanding night watchman industry!

He may not become one of the most powerful people in the Seven Kingdoms anytime soon, but at least he will soon be among the highest-paid players in the Seven Kingdoms.

Returning to his seat and taking a seat, a beautiful girl next to him raised a wine glass to him——Margaery Tyrell, as a woman, naturally couldn't attend the battle meeting, so she didn't witness Iger's proposal with her own eyes.But this celebration banquet is no problem: "The Chief Logistics Officer is really amazing, the little girl admires it!"

"To each other, compared to tax exemptions, those who collect taxes like the Tyrell family are the real winners." Iger couldn't hide his complacency. He knew that as long as he didn't play with the privileges like the ancient temples of the Chinese Dynasty It was too much, and with Robert's temper, even if he regretted it afterwards, he would never swallow what he said.

The only person in the big tent who did not come from a noble family became the focus of attention of the nobles from all over the Seven Kingdoms.Spending money does not know how to make money. Compared with Robert, the hands-off shopkeeper who likes to push things on the chancellor, the heads of other families, the heads of the countries, the N bosses, etc.... as long as anyone who has managed taxes, will know What does tax exemption mean.

Although it's not enough to be jealous - but the means of the little night watchman are really amazing.

So many people focused on Igger that when Robb Stark walked to the center of the tent and told Robert what he wanted for reward, few people listened carefully to the young wolf lord.

But this young man from the North, the future Duke of Stark, still managed to grab everyone's attention instantly with a single sentence.

The tent became lively again, some people were booing and cheering, some people were in doubt, even Iger spit out the wine that he had just offered to Little Rose. He thought that Cersei was the biggest winner in this counter-rebellion war, He felt that he was the one, but at this moment he realized that there was someone else.

Robb Stark knelt down on one knee to Robert, looked up and took a deep breath, and said, "I fell in love with Roslin Frey, the daughter of Lord Walder Frey, at first sight. Please marry me, Your Majesty!"

-

Chapter 118 The Biggest Winner

After Iger sprayed the wine, he coughed and wiped his mouth, while paying special attention to Roslin Foyle's... elder brother who was old enough to be her grandfather.Judging from the change in the expression of the eldest son of the old Marquess Frey from astonishment to ecstasy, this "good news" probably wasn't even known to the woman's family in advance, and it was entirely Robb Stark's personal decision.

The parents of Karstark, Umber and other northern princes tried their best to wink, wanting their young master to take back the request, but Robb Stark didn't even look at them, only staring at the Lord of the Seven Kingdoms above , waiting for a reply.

……

Robert's face sank. As a close friend of Robb's father and the head of the Baratheon family, he was obviously not very satisfied with the wife his brother and son chose for him-the Frey family was not worthy of the Stark family at all, This is a "fact" recognized by the whole Seven Kingdoms, not to mention that Robb is the eldest son and heir?

As a son of mine, he can only maximize his own interests and consolidate the peace of the Seven Kingdoms by marrying the cunning little girl of the Tyrell family and tying the northern border with the River Bend together.

Having said that, the promise of the king of a country cannot be used as a joke. Although this marriage is not satisfactory, at least it does not threaten the rule of the Iron Throne. Representative: "Steve Lun! Can you do this in your father's place?"

Of course not, everything in the Frey family has always been decided by the old Marquess Frey alone, but Stevron Frey knew that if he dared to say no this time, he would be beaten to death by his father when he returned home: "Yes, Your Majesty! On behalf of the Frey family, I agree to this marriage!"

"Very well, since that's the case, then hurry up and call your little sister over." Forget the slight unhappiness that happened when rewarding Iger just now, Robert became a little interested, he really didn't do marriages a few times, Now that the matter has come to an end, let’s get excited: “Since the Seven Kingdoms are all here today, why don’t we choose another day—let the peaks of the Vale of Arryn and the nobles of Westeros come to witness this event.” Marriage, come on, hurry up and find me a priest! Robb, behave better, and you will enter the bridal chamber tonight!"

……

The Frey family got the order, and one of the nimble-legged chugged out of the tent to call the bride, and the rest of the tent immediately roared like boiling water.Several nobles in the northern region quickly surrounded Robb, frowning and saying something, as if they disapproved of the marriage, but more people have already started to congratulate the married couple—congratulations to the Young Wolf Lord for embracing him. The beauties returned, and some congratulated the Frey family on finding a good husband... from extreme silence to extreme movement, the change was so fast, even Iger was dumbfounded: the man's parents still don't know anything about it, you are an uncle So he held a wedding for his younger generation?

This kind of absurdity, from Robert's hand, is simply... too reasonable.

Of course the king has the right to give a marriage, but the premise is that the object and his family must be informed and willing to accept - the mad king chose Jaime Lannister to serve as the Kingsguard. Jaime thought it was an honor at first, but Tywin regarded him as the king from then on. for the enemy.Robert seems absurd, but he knows very well in his stomach what he can do and what he cannot do—he will never marry the heirs of important vassals such as Robb and Margaery, and the heirs of uncrowned kings. If the parents don't agree, it's not good to make a fuss, but there will be trouble.

But this time is different, this marriage was requested by Robb on his own initiative, and Robert just pushed the boat along. As for Ed and Caitlin's reaction after hearing the news... let them argue with their son.

As for the Freys, just smile secretly, who has the time to care what you think?

***

Iger rubbed his temples: "Those who can't control hanging will still be able to control hanging, but no matter what, Robb marrying Roslin... At least it's better than marrying a little nurse or a little nobleman whose surname Iger can't even remember." Many, many not to mention—at least this time the Scarlet Wedding will never happen again.

Iger feels sad for Robb's father—don't be misled by Ed, a freak in a special situation. In this era when the consciousness of equality between men and women has not yet awakened, and nobles and commoners are almost two kinds of creatures, "keep clean" and "not close" Traits such as "femininity" and "consistency" have never been the virtues that the Stark family or the people of the North prioritize. From Ed's brother Brandon Stark who likes "spears stained with blood" It can be seen from the romantic nature of Ai Po hx.

As a modern person, Iger will condemn this kind of irresponsible behavior on the face of others.But in fact, as a lord and parent, it is easy to cause problems to restrain and educate children with the "second son template" like Ed: the more forbidden something, the easier it is for children to indulge in something or do bad things on something, Blocking is worse than sparse——If Duke Stark had found some prostitutes early on to let Robb taste the sweetness of women, and let his heirs understand the rules of the noble game of "women are like clothes, vassals are like brothers and feet", then Robb would not As for being controlled by the lower body when seeing a beautiful girl, even the interests of the family are ignored.

……

"Your Majesty, it's probably inappropriate to hold the wedding without notifying the Prime Minister."
