Everything happens for a reason, and what happened to Robert today is all his own fault.

Just imagine, if the Kingsguard were all Barristan Selmy, even if James had three heads and six arms, what splash could he make?

The purpose of the Kingsguard is to protect the king and the royal blood, and the selection requirements are - strong, loyal and wise.By the end of the War of the Usurper there were five Kingsguard slots to be filled, six if you count Jaime the Kingslayer.In order to express his love to his new wife, Robert thanked his father-in-law for his "full support" to the Baratheon's new dynasty worth hundreds of thousands of gold dragons. Perhaps he also meant to take James as a hostage—the decision to decide the Kingslayer Not to mention the position, but also generously handed over the selection rights of the other five key personnel to Cersei!

Being stared at by the world, Cersei, who was still young at the time, could not unscrupulously install all the Kingsguard as members of the Lannister family, but she did not intend to do her best to choose excellent guards for Robert—so she did not talk to her father Tai After discussing it, Wen Wen made the queen's first decision without authorization: bypassing the three kingdoms of the Northern Territory, the Riverlands, and Dorne, which had always had grievances or discord with the Western Territory, from the remaining river bends, valleys, stormlands, and the Western Territory. In addition, among the five kingdoms, each selected a small family with whom they had good relations, and asked them to choose a family member to send to the palace...to be the Royal Guard!

Of course, the Kingsguard, who was elected with such a playful and strong sense of political bribery, could not be too strong.The five new Kingsguard may be regarded as the top fighters of their families, more than enough to be mercenaries... but they will never reach the level of wearing white robes. Barristan said of the five new colleagues: Even now, I still Could cut all five of you down like cheese.

Although he despised the kingslayer's treachery, Barristan sadly admitted that Jaime Lannister was the only Kingsguard who was physically qualified besides himself.The five newcomers may not be able to betray Robert in the infighting between the king and the queen, but in any case, the combat effectiveness and quality of this group of Kingsguard Iron Guards have been recognized since Aegon landed and created the White Robe Iron Guard. The worst session, none of them.

***

Concerned about Cersei's safety, James exploded with unprecedented power in desperation—it was the familiar backstab, or the attack on the king he swore to protect, and the scene of the regicide 16 years ago flashed before his eyes.honor?James murmured the word silently with red eyes, knowing that this was something he could only hope for in this life.The dagger pierced Robert's back armor in front of the two white robes and pierced into the king's flesh. Not enough, James also bumped into Robert with his shoulder, knocking down the opponent's fat body with strength and body inertia.Just before the opponent fell down, he grabbed the war hammer that had killed Rhaegar with both hands, and snatched it from the master who was caught off guard.

"You!" Alex Oakheart relaxed his vigilance for a moment when he saw James fell to the ground with his sword broken, and when it was too late to react, he yelled loudly, drew his sword and rushed towards James who had attacked the king. .

Robert suffered pain on his back and was hit again. The moment he fell, he let go of his hands, giving Cersei a chance to break free. The queen breathed the air again. Regardless of the pain on her neck, she took a deep breath without hesitation, and let out a high-pitched voice. Shout: "Hands-!"

The sharp soprano voice overshadowed the exclamation of the three children and penetrated the door of the room, and the battle inside and outside the house started again at the same time.

……

The hammer was heavy, Jaime thought. Robert could wield the weapon. Anyone who dared to be careless against such a strong fighter was not wronged at all.oath?James resigned himself to the second word silently, grabbed the long hammer, which was nearly twice as heavy as his usual weapon, and swiped it hard: "Get out!"

The two Kingsguard refused to give way to each other, and their weapons hit each other within a tenth of a second. Arys' sword sliced ​​through the deck on the Kingslayer's chest, and Jaime's warhammer dented the former's arm. armor.As usual, James would be able to harm the two colleagues in one fight or two, but this time, knowing that the defense team came and was anxious to take Cersei away, he chose to fight with both. The advantage of Warhammer is that both sides All in armor, without defense or dodge, Alex was beaten to the point where his arm was broken and his body lost balance. He fell half a meter and knocked down a wooden table and lay on the ground, instantly losing his fighting power.

Outside the door, hundreds of red robes attacked the king's men the moment they heard their lady's cry. Although the three royal guards were more powerful than ordinary soldiers, they led less than fifty men.The so-called guards of the Royal Red Castle... To put it bluntly, it is a sub-unit of the Capital Guard responsible for the inner area of ​​the Red Castle. They also wear gold robes, and their fighting strength is not as strong as the red robes from the Lannisport Guard.

The number and combat effectiveness of the king's soldiers are at a disadvantage. If it weren't for the three and a half kings guards supporting the field, they would have collapsed in an instant. The three white robes wanted to leave the battle and rush into the house to see what happened, but they knew: if that's the case Do it, when the affairs inside the house are dealt with, there may only be Lannister soldiers left outside the house.

"Kill them both!" Robert fell to the ground and still didn't give up. He reached out and grabbed Cersei's skirt to prevent her from escaping, but only a piece of cloth was torn off with a tear... So he tried to pull out and insert it on his back The dagger, but his body was too fat to reach the hilt with his hands. As the injury to his lungs expanded, he began to feel a sharp pain in his chest in an instant.It was difficult to breathe, and his strong body quickly began to collapse and fatigue due to insufficient oxygen supply. His eyes turned black and he couldn't stand up.

"Don't come here!" James stretched out his hand to touch his abdomen, he saw blood but couldn't see the wound, he didn't know how his injury was for a moment, he raised his head and pulled Cersei, raised his warhammer and pointed at Boros Bolo standing in front of Myrcella Lawn: "The king is not dead yet, keep an eye on him, I don't want to kill you!"

"Don't be frightened by him, he was hit by my sword, it's not your opponent... stop him... don't... let him run away." Alex lay on the ground, his right arm was almost crippled, so he had to hand over the sword to Left hand, struggling to stand up.

……

If the combat effectiveness and quality of this year's Kingsguard is the worst in history, then Sir Boros Braun is the worst of the worst: the action was a bit slower Not to mention keeping up with the offense of his teammates, watching Alex Oakheart being knocked down by James without hesitating to get injured, he who has always been relentless doesn't have the courage to step forward and desperately.Holding the steel sword tremblingly, he carefully stood beside Robert, and with the excuse of "protecting the king" offered by James, he was as motionless as a statue nailed in place.

Cersei waved to the three children: "Little Joe, Myrcella, Tommen... come with me!"

"No, stay here! You are a prince and princess, Eddard Stark dare not hurt you!" James felt a stomach ache every time he said a word, and he dismissed Cersei's words with his hands on his stomach, but he didn't believe what he said Said, but he knew—with three children, Cersei would never escape King's Landing.Wiping off the blood on his hands, he dragged his sister and lover, who still refused to give up, backed up step by step facing Boros, reached the door, opened the door, turned and rushed out of the house.

Outside the house, the sound of fighting, shouting, wailing, and weapons clashing could be heard endlessly, and the scene was chaotic, and it was obvious that the side with more people had the upper hand.Preston Greenfield saw the blood-stained James in the white robe and Cersei in his hand, staring and shouting, "Jaime! What have you done!"

"You have to go to the stables. Without a mount, you will never be able to escape from King's Landing." James ignored the shouts of the enemy. The Red Keep was under Stark's control, and it might not be possible to escape with a horse, but he had to try.There was a vibration from the ground, and a large number of soldiers were rushing here. He pushed Cersei hard: "After you find the horse, take someone to pick a side door with few people, attack it by force, and escape before they close the city gate of King's Landing." Get out of town, go!"

"It's not me, it's us! I've already arranged a way out!" Cersei took James' arm again without a doubt, and pulled him forcefully towards the stable: "Potter, take half of the people here, Aya Moss, take twenty people and follow me... stop that white robe quickly!"

The Kingsguard who raised their swords and rushed towards Jaime was forced back by several spears. More than a dozen red-robed opponents who killed or drove away their opponents gathered around Cersei and the injured Jaime, covering the young man and lady and retreating towards the stable. But the sound of thunderous footsteps came from the south of Maegor Tower, and Ed appeared at the end of his field of vision with a large number of garrison soldiers. After seeing the battle scene here, he quickened his pace, and he was about to arrive at the scene in a blink of an eye.

"Can you still do it? Come on, the guard at the iron gate of the Red Castle sewer is mine. The map of this gate is very small. Stark forgot to send someone to replace him. It hasn't rained for two days, so there must be no accumulation." Water. The guard captain of the Gods Gate in King's Landing is also my man, we can escape!" Cersei pulled Jaime, who was desperate for life and death, and at the last moment, she did not forget to turn her head and order loudly: "Hold them!"

Chapter 171

In the king's castle, seeing a large group of heavily armed gold robes queuing up and rushing past him, even a fool can feel that something is wrong. The night watchmen of the ghoul escort team gathered together, whispering and discussing with different expressions.

"What are you doing here? Could it be that Westeros is going to change its dynasty again?"

"Just change it. If the Stark family wins the Iron Throne and becomes the king of the Seven Kingdoms, it doesn't seem to be bad news."

"Lord Ed, no, His Majesty Ed will definitely send us thousands of soldiers to help guard the Great Wall."

"Haha, it's hard to say, why do people guard the Great Wall when they become kings? It would be great to just give up the northern border and move all the people to the south to enjoy the warmth. At that time, we will build another Great Wall at the Neck, and the north will be freezing to death. Let the ghouls and savages play in this ghostly place!"

……

Most of the night watchmen have a broken-hearted mentality. They have almost no hope for the future. They can say whatever they want to say if they want to say something rebellious. Anyway, go back to the Great Wall... Naturally, Iger will not participate in this kind of meaningless discussion. Looking at a large group of armed men The gold-cloaked soldier followed Eddard Stark away and disappeared from sight, and he felt uneasy.As a traveler and owner of the night watchman industry who knew more inside information than the visitors from the Great Wall beside him, he certainly knew what Ed was going to do on this trip.This time, the number of soldiers that Jory brought into the Red Castle is enough to seal the victory, and Cersei and James are absolutely unable to turn the tables... The prime minister who is friendly to the night watchman took the lead in taking control of the army in this chaos and remained invincible It is certainly a good thing, but instead of thinking about "how to benefit from this great change", he first thought of his partner and friend-Tyrion.

Affected by rumors this time, the scandal of Cersei Jaime came out, and the Lannister family followed suit. As one of the core members of the family, how could Tyrion not be implicated at all? As soon as the bar appeared, it smelled something was wrong.If it was safe, he should have returned to Casterly Rock immediately a week ago when Iger returned to King's Landing, but in order to allow his partner to take over the expanded Night Watchman industry more smoothly, the dwarf uncharacteristically decided to take a risk and stay for a few more days; When Robert returned to King's Landing, the sword was hanging above his head... and the final evacuation time was delayed because of the conflict between Janos Slynt and the Night Watchman industry.

Delay after delay, the end result: until now Tyrion hadn't left.He said at Linhe Gate before that he would go to the Night Watchman Industrial Park outside the city to pack up and then return to Casterly Rock City. I don't know if he is ready to go west at this moment?Here Ed took down Cersei and James, and based on the principle that there are not too many noble hostages, he certainly wouldn't just let Tyrion go just because he was "a good guy"... How long will it take to run, and will it be possible to escape Ed's capture and return to Casterly Rock safely?

Eggs thought about it, and became more and more uneasy: Tyrion only suspected that there would be changes in the Red Castle through Slynt’s words and James’s reaction when he was at the river gate, but what kind of change was the change, when did it start, and how did it develop? To what extent... no one knows. "Leaving to avoid the limelight" and "running away with all your strength when you are wanted" are completely two states. In the former state of mind, Tyrion is likely to set off unhurriedly, swaying on the road, and finally escape without any suspense. Get caught up by men sent by Ed and Robert!

The Night Watchman industry has indeed initially shown its influence, but it can also deal with Janos Slynt and his ilk. It is dangerous to deal with such a small character... I want to make money in Game of Thrones The hostages of the king and the prime minister may not even be qualified enough to take action!Once Tyrion was caught, he would be absolutely powerless to rescue him. He fished himself out of the Great Wall, worked hard for the benefit of the Night Watchman’s property, and delayed his escape time. Life, I will blame myself for the rest of my life!

(For now, the only way to prevent him from being caught... I should immediately tell Tyrion what happened in the Red Castle, and let him abandon all burdens and flee to Casterly Rock at full speed!)

……

Jia Kun seemed to be very concerned about the ghouls and the situation outside the Great Wall. He, who had always been hiding in the shadows without saying a word, actually took the initiative to chat with Allisa, Domi and the others to ask questions.Iger was not in the mood to participate, and thought in a cold sweat: I may be considered a well-known figure in King's Landing City, but I am really a pawn in this Red Castle. At this moment when the Prime Minister clearly ordered the door to be closed, what excuse do I have to go out to give the notice? Leon calling the police?

Sweat rolled down his hair, and Iger quickly thought of countermeasures, but before he could come up with a solution, there was another movement from the direction of Maegor Tower, and a small group of gold robes rushed over in a panic. It was Jacelyn Bywater, captain of the Linhemen defense.

"what happened?"

"The Kingslayer attacked the king, one of the Kingsguard was killed and two were wounded, the Lannister siblings ran out of Maegor's Tower under the cover of the red robes, and fled to the northeast corner of the Red Keep. Melee." Bywater looked nervous, frightened and angry: "The Prime Minister ordered additional troops to completely seal the main entrance and the side entrance of the Red Castle, and not a single fly can be let go... In addition, the garrison was informed to arrest all members of the Lannister family in King's Landing, and Seize their assets!"

As an officer of the garrison, Bywater has no obligation or need to explain the emergency situation and the Prime Minister's order to a night watchman who has nothing to do with this matter, Iger realized——Sir Iron Hand told himself on the suspicion of leaking military information These are probably also reminding myself, hurry up and report to the mutual friends of the two!

Jaime attacked the king, how was his injury fatal?Iger didn't have time to think about these issues. He only had time to tell Jia Kun to bring Alliser and his party back to the Night Watchman's office at night, then left his bodyguards and colleagues behind, and followed Bywater to the gate of the Red Castle. As for how to get out, Play it by ear.

They quickly ran to the gate, and the dozen or so Stark guards guarding the place saw their flustered behavior and took up their weapons vigilantly: "What's going on?"

"The Kingslayer attacked King Robert, and the Hand sent us to help guard the gates, and sent out to deliver orders to the garrison!"

"Is there any order or token?"

"No, I prove it's true!" How could there be time to go through these procedures in a hurry?But the commander who thought of this sent a guard from the Stark family to send a message with the team. Ed brought a total of dozens of people from King's Landing from Winterfell, and everyone knew each other, so there was no way to fake it: " First open the door and order King's Landing to guard all the ministries, then put down the iron portcullis to guard to death, don't let anyone out again!"

The bronze gate opened with a bang. If I miss this time, I don’t know when I will be able to go out next time. Several soldiers of the garrison in charge of delivering orders ran out first. Iger tried to fool around, but was stopped: "Night watchman, what are you going out for?"

"I... am your Miss Arya's swordsmanship teacher. She goes to the night watchman industrial park outside the city to participate in swordsmanship practice every day. There is a commotion in the city, and I have to call her back!" At the last moment, Iger thought of an excuse.He had other intentions in sending Arya out of town for security training, but it came in handy: "She's with a Lannister now, and I've got to get her back to safety right away." place!"

"Miss Arya?" A guard looked at his colleague, "Has she left the Red Castle today?"

"It doesn't seem to be there?" Another guard hesitated to recall: "Anyway, it must not have come out through our door."

Oops, forgot about that!Ed Stark planned the turmoil in the Red Castle today. On this critical day, how could he let his daughter go out to take the so-called swordsmanship class?Arya definitely didn't leave the Red Keep today, she was probably locked up in the Prime Minister's Tower and watched by Sister Mordan!

Iger opened his mouth: "She might have come out from another door, so I didn't have time to ask, anyway, I made a mistake, it's a waste of time, let me go out!"

"Let him out, this is the chief logistics officer of the Wall defenders, the night watchman who has been sworn." Sir Bywater also advised: "There is no way he can tip off the Lannisters. "

"Well, let him out, I saw him in Winterfell." Another Stark guard nodded, "He also warned me that Lord Bran was climbing the wall again, if I listened to him that day If so... oh."

Seeing more than one person speaking for Iger, the rest of the guards naturally couldn't say anything more. If something happened to Miss Arya because of stopping this person, no one can afford it: "Well, go, run fast point!"

Chapter 172

Iger walked out of the gate of the Red Keep and stood on the gentle slope of Aegon High Hill for a few seconds.In this game of power, he thought he was powerless to intervene, and he didn't intend to intervene, but in the end, he was not only involved, but now he seemed to be taking the initiative to kill him—against the winning side, this is really...

"What are you thinking, you ride that horse, hurry up, don't put Miss Arya in danger!" Sir Bywater patted him on the back, shoved the bridle of a garrison officer's horse into his hand, and blinked quietly Lower your eyes: "Go and come back quickly."

Knowing that now is not a good time to think wildly, Iger took the horse and turned on the saddle, nodded to Sir Iron Hand, and rode the horse towards the west of the city.

The King's Landing garrison is a city defense force that does not undertake external combat missions. It is equipped with very few horses, and the members of the Lannister family in the capital have a large number of people with amazing assets... It will take some time to arrest and seal them all. Time, I hope they can slow down to think of Tyrion outside the city.

Not daring to put his friend's safety on the neglect of others, Aigla straightened the reins and clamped the horse's belly, crawled on the horse's back, leaned forward, and began to accelerate.The sun gradually moved into the sky, and it was the time when there were least pedestrians on the road in the middle of the day when lunch was approaching. Iger didn't worry about horsepower, and for the first time he galloped around the city like a dude racing in a downtown.It is a good horse that is used to the road conditions in King's Landing. Even under the complicated conditions in the city, it still runs fast. It almost bumped into pedestrians and goods along the way, but they avoided it in time by reacting. In less than half an hour, Iger From the Red Keep to the King's Gate.

The King's Gate is open normally, as people come and go in the past.As the largest city in the Seven Kingdoms, if King's Landing is closed for no reason, the impact on residents' daily life and various economic behaviors will be immeasurable. In Ed Stark's plan, as long as Cersei and James, the other Lannisters in King's Landing City are the turtles in the urn... Out of various considerations such as self-confidence and secrecy, the defense teams of each sect did not get any news in advance. This did catch Cersei by surprise, but it also provided Egger Chances of going out of town to call the police for Tyrion.

When passing through the door, Iger was recognized by the guards—no way, he is too recognizable now. Last night, he was a criminal who was mobilized by the garrison to catch him. Get in jail.As the person concerned, he rode a horse freely in the city of King's Landing. This kind of person with extraordinary skills... which garrison soldier didn't respect and fear him?

Not being blocked, Iger slowed down, passed the city gate as if nothing had happened, and after a while galloped at full speed, he arrived at the destination by the Blackwater River.

The soldiers of the security team at the gate of the industrial park received him in panic. Iger refused the proposal of notification or escort, and went straight to Tyrion's office without wasting time.

Sure enough, Tyrion didn't leave. He was sitting behind his desk and writing a letter to himself. Instead, Jack and Maurice were rummaging around the room and sorting out their things.

"Egg, why are you here!" Tyrion put down his pen, "That's fine, I won't write the rest, I'll explain it to you face to face..."

"Don't worry about any assumptions and plans, go, immediately! Now!" Iger stared and said in a low voice: "Jack, Morris, don't pack anything, take a day or two of food and drink, and set off immediately!"

"what happened?"

"James attacked King Robert in the Red Keep, and now the garrison is on their way to catch you." Iger moved sideways to open the door, and urged nervously: "Go to the stables immediately, each of you takes two horses, and avoids you." Open the road and flee westward at full speed from the settlements - go back to Casterly Rock City alive, and the future development of the night watchman industry, we will have a chance to discuss it later!"

……

It took Tyrion half a second to understand the seriousness of the matter, jumped off the chair without hesitation, and shook Iger's hand for the last time before going out, without saying anything.Without seeing off or saying goodbye, the two "giant" of the night watchman industry separated hastily. Watching Tyrion and two guards running towards the stable, Iger sorted out his expression and thoughts before heading to the security team. Training Course.

Here, he panted and pretended to ask Arya's whereabouts anxiously, and the result he got was naturally that she didn't come today. After doing that, he was "relieved" to breathe a sigh of relief, pretending that nothing happened, and left I roughly explained the reason for my anxiety, chatted with the inspector and security captain I appointed, and soon the guard soldiers who arrested Tyrion arrived.

Since he was used to being troubled by Slynt in the past two days, when the ten golden robes rode into the industrial park on horseback, the guards did nothing to stop them.No target was found in Tyrion's office or room, and the gold-cloaked capture team naturally looked for the person in charge here, then went up the stairs, and soon stood in front of Iger.

It’s not enough just to let Tyrion escape. His little man needs special saddles to ride a horse, and he can’t go fast on the road. Only by buying him as much time as possible can this tip-off not be a waste of effort: “Tilly Not long after Ang left, he said he was going to leave by boat and go back to Lannisport around Dorne."

Leaving by boat to circle Westeros back to Casterly Rock?This is a bit unreasonable, the golden robe officer frowned: "Really?"

"I don't know if it's true or not, but that's what he said anyway."

The face of the gold-cloaked officer who came to inquire was distorted, and finally he had nothing to say.On the site of the Night Watchman industry, facing the chief logistics officer of the Night Watchman, who is said to have the prime minister as the backer and who can "take down" his own commander, the famous "White Ghost Killer" Igger West... who can be hardened? ?Shaking his head, after communicating with his colleagues behind him, he left the industrial park on horseback and chased towards Heishui Port in the east—the wrong direction.

***

With the help of Iger, Tyrion escaped temporarily, but the city of King's Landing was in chaos at the moment.It was lunch time, and countless residents of King's Landing were talking about the "infighting" of the garrison that happened at Linhe Gate last night at the family dining table or in the lobby of the restaurant, and many people were talking about the "ghosts" that the night watchman sent into King's Landing this morning. …It wasn’t until I heard the noise coming from the street that I opened the window to see that the fun was not over yet.

For the first time since the end of the War of the Reavers, the garrison was mobilized for the first time. A large number of soldiers rushed out of the barracks and rushed to the streets. For a while, "the city was covered with golden armor"; The Te family is facing the biggest crisis since Aegon's conquest—because his lady is queen in the Red Castle, countless Lannisters safely regard King's Landing as the second Lannisport, settling down here, seeking opportunities and livelihoods, and even living better. Buy property and have children.Now that Cersei and James have been involved in the incident, the main branch of the family, the side branches...everyone in the city, even if they are only from the Westland family with a little connection, will be arrested by the broken golden robe and thrown into the dungeon, and all money and assets will be confiscated.

Members of the Queen's family who were once high and mighty have been imprisoned one after another, and the cells in King's Landing were overcrowded for a while, but those who think that the Lannister family is about to be completely doomed will be disappointed: Ed led more than three hundred soldiers from the garrison, It was hard to wipe out all the Lannister troops in the Red Castle. After searching extensively, not only did they fail to catch anyone, but they turned around and heard that "the captain of the Lionsgate guard rebelled and escorted Jaime Cersei with his cronies and horses to escape." Out of King's Landing" bad news.

……

"Hurry up and send someone to chase after you!" After planning for a long time, the Lannister brothers and sisters finally escaped from under their noses. Ed was furious as if possessed by Robert: "Let Grand Maester Pycelle send out ravens and order them to be sent along the golden road." The aristocrats of the Hejian and Hewan lands are trying their best to intercept and arrest the kingslayer and queen!"

The garrison experienced internal strife last night, changed its commander this morning, and was dispatched to clean up the Lannister family in King's Landing. They are in a chaotic state of scattered personnel, poor communication and difficulty in passing orders. They have not many horses. It took a lot of effort to get together a chasing army, and they rushed out of the Lion's Gate in a mess, chasing in the direction of Casterly Rock City on the Golden Road.

In the afternoon, in the crowhouse at the southeast corner of the Red Castle, ravens with letters tied to their feet flapped their wings and flew into the air, flying towards the west along with the wind.The content of the letter was exactly the order given by Ed Stark, even if the Prime Minister sent someone to check it word by word, they couldn’t find any faults, but only the bachelor who sent them knew it—the one who was supposed to fly to Shitang Town Two, replaced by ones flying to Casterly Rock.

Chapter 173

It is easy to leave the city and difficult to enter the city. After reporting to Tyrion, he tricked a small team of gold robes who came to arrest them. Iger returned to King's Landing but found that the gate was closed... Helpless, he turned and went back to the Night Watchman Industrial Park. The canteen was very "approachable" and had lunch with the grassroots managers, and stayed for another afternoon, until the king's door was half opened before sunset-allowing entry and not exiting.

It was almost dark when we returned to the night watchman's office. The events of this day and night were more exciting than the sum of the past few months. Iger, who had hardly slept a wink, felt physically and mentally exhausted, but there were still a lot of things waiting for him.

The office was full of people. When I walked in, I saw that besides the night watchmen, there were a bunch of irrelevant people waiting... Domi was sitting on the receptionist's seat in the lobby, spitting and talking about his affair with the East Sea Watch Rangers Going north, the story of the war against the White Walkers, inside and outside the house, was crowded with people who were listening to his story attentively, even the office employees who were supposed to be working were listening with gusto.

The night watchman has been discriminated against for too long, and finally he was able to stand up for a while, and couldn't help but want to show off. Iger can understand this feeling, but it would be too nonsense to make the night watchman's office as noisy as a storytelling club.But these are his "sworn brothers", and it's not easy to tear things apart in front of outsiders.

Iger squeezed into the crowd, cast a disapproving glance at Domi, and under the gaze of everyone, pushed the door and entered the inner room.

Nina was sitting behind the table, talking to Sir Alliser who was leaning on the guest seat, when she saw him enter the door, she stood up: "My lord."

Aiger stood at the door, met eyes with Sir Alliser, and suddenly realized that the guy in black in front of him was the second real night watchman to step into the office besides himself: "Well, summer clothes Are you ready, send it to the brothers, let Akun take them to find a hotel to settle down, close the door and go back to rest."

Looking for a hotel? The office is in the big house in King's Landing, which is enough to accommodate the ghoul escort team. Nina blinked her eyes, and seemed to understand something. She didn't express any doubts in her heart, and stood up to carry out Iger's orders. : "Sir Alliser, please come with me, Akun will take you to find a place to live."

Allisa glanced at Iger thoughtfully, got up, and followed Nina and Jaqen out of the office.

After dismissing the residents of King's Landing who came to listen to the story, and distributing more than a dozen sets of summer clothes to the night watchmen of the ghoul escort team, and sending Jaqen to take them away, Nina returned to the inner room.

Iger sat back in his boss chair and leaned into the cushion: "What did Sir Alliser talk to you about?"

"He asked about the operating status of the Night Watchman industry, as well as income, etc... He also asked about the details of Slynt's confrontation with us."

"Nina, I won't explain the specific reason, but you remember, the 'night watchman industry' is the industry of the night watchman's logistics department, and my chief logistics officer is a bare-bones commander—except for me, there are no other members of the night watchman logistics department I request that you only report to me, accept orders from me, and be responsible to me alone. The other night watchmen from the Great Wall are just guests of the night watchman industry. They eat and drink well, but don’t Let them intervene in the industry, even if it is a little bit, understand?"

……

When Iger asked Jaqen to "bring the night watchmen to the inn", Nina had already noticed it, and his words confirmed this guess at the moment, she nodded: "Understood, and Sir Alliser will ask about it later. Let me just say that I don't know, and blame it all on you?"

"Well, that's fine too."

Egger didn't know and didn't want to know what Mormont told him before sending Alliser to King's Landing. All he knew was: Don't have the heart to harm others, and you must have the heart to guard against others...
