Chapter 66 Armor
"This is Arthur, the invincible Arthur." Horace Redwyne introduced.

After a simple bandage on his leg, he rushed to attend the party.

Due to the protection of the plate armor, he was only bleeding and bruised from the thigh meat, and did not hurt the femur.So it's just walking with a limp, and it's not a big deal.

"I've heard something about that warrior who beat up Cersei's cousin Cleo, right?"

"That's right, a true warrior is not afraid of power."

"Speaking of the Lannister's family and the Frey family are really all -fitting relatives. I am happy to see the people of the two of their families."

The nobles of the Reach talked a lot, gloating about the Lannister family and their relatives inside and out.

If their lord wants to be in power, the most likely thing is to get rid of the political niche of the Lion family and let the Rose family produce a queen.

These nobles were all educated by extremely strict lords, unlike James who was sent as a servant and Ed who was sent as an adopted son, so they still have vision and knowledge.

They know better than anyone what to say at such a gathering.

Although in other places, what they said may mean something else.

Hopper, the other twin, was also nearby. Seeing Arthur here, he first leaned over to express his admiration for Arthur's strange power, and then introduced to many nobles how he was completely impressed by Arthur today. .

He even boasted how the lord of the Moulin Rouge used one as a thousand, pierced through the army of Raventree City, and killed hundreds of enemies.

The details are also made up by him with nose and eyes, as if he was at the scene.

The speech was full of affirmation of Arthur's strength and admiration for him.

In fact, his behavior is easy to understand. The more you brag about Arthur, the more natural it is for him to lose quickly.

It is a typical fanatic behavior of converts.

Desmond and Patrick also added details in a timely manner, adding a bit of credibility to Arthur's deeds.

The big nobles in the circle also cooperated with the flattery of several people, exclaiming and tsk-tsk from time to time.

Come on, they are professionals.

Arthur didn't correct some of Hopper's mistakes, he quietly ate the delicious pastry made by the court pastry chef and drank the fine wine from Qingting Island.

As the second richest family in the country, the food provided at the party of Rose's family was as delicate and delicious as his family's status.

Reflected in the details, every piece of pastry is printed with a rose pattern.

This is terrifying.

Ordinary people eat stew in big pots with random tastes, but the top aristocrats can even have family patterns printed on a piece of pastry.

Inequality is evident.

What is even more exaggerated is the martial arts competition. The champion of the spear riding competition has 210 golden dragons. Compared with the annual living cost of Hejian farmers, it is only a few silver deer. Under normal circumstances, one golden dragon can be exchanged for [-] silver deer.

It can be seen that the extravagant life of the top nobles has reached the level of magic.

Of course, Arthur couldn't change these things, he could only express his emotions in his heart, and then he ate hard with his plate in his hand.

Dry food is urgent!

At this moment, someone's voice spread throughout the hall.

"Sorry, my friends, if I had known about this gathering in advance, I would have arranged to hold it in the Red Castle."

Arthur turned his head and found that it was King Robert's younger brother, Lord of the Stormlands, Duke Renly of Storm's End.

This person is really good at wooing people, and he wants to sell his feelings wherever he goes.

Arthur never believed that Renly would not have known where the party was going to be held.

Because Loras, the host of the party, is his Pythagorean friend and bed friend.

But the party was still held somewhere in the courtyard of Rose's house, which showed that Renly didn't care about it at all.

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the nobles present changed visibly with the naked eye. It seemed that this useless nonsense made Renly accumulate a lot of popularity.

Although Arthur can't do such a behavior now, he still learned a wave silently.

In the future, if he succeeds, he can always use such small tricks to win people's hearts.

Some high-ranking nobles of the River Bend immediately gathered together and surrounded the Duke of Storm's End.

Arthur and the others were very conscious and continued to stay where they were and chat.

After all, they really have nothing to do with people at the level of the king's brother and the duke.

In addition to the interesting stories of their own experiences, reminiscing about their ancestors and discovering the relationship between their ancestors is also an important topic for many nobles to talk about.

Fortunately, although Arthur's title is a bit lower, the history of the surname Bracken is long enough.

In fact, considering that most of the Reach nobles can be related to the long-gone Reach King Gardener family, and Bracken was once the River King of the First Men - at least they claimed to be, so there are quite a few The family history of the nobles present was not as prominent as that of Arthur's ancestors.

After having a common topic, the relationship is always pulled in very quickly.

Coupled with the fact that the Redwyne twins tried their best to promote Arthur to those in their own circle, and Arthur's obvious anti-Lannister stance, when most of the party was over, the lord of the Moulin Rouge actually became the leader of the party. the focal person.

Arthur also couldn't remember how many nobles from the Reach told him about the origin of his family and the name Bracken.

Even the camp that stood during the Blackfyre Rebellion was brought up.

During the Blackfyre Rebellion, the nobles of the Reach and the Stormlands, who were dissatisfied with the Iron Throne being too close to Dorne, united to support Damon Blackfyre, a "noble illegitimate son" of the Targaryen family, in launching the Blackfyre rebellion.

And even if the Blackfyre Rebellion was suppressed several times, most of the Black Dragon Party and the Red Dragon Party who supported the Iron Throne didn't like each other.

The legendary knight Blackfish Brynden Tully's refusal to marry the daughter of the Redwyne family of the Black Dragon is a perfect example, because the Tully family is the Red Dragon Party.

Coincidentally, the Bracken family also joined forces with the Black Dragon Party to rebel.

This brings everyone's relationship closer again.

After hearing about Arthur's conflict with Raventree City forces in the north of the territory and Arthur's desire to purchase some armor and weapons from the Riverbend family, many nobles present readily agreed to sell a batch to him at the market price.

A family may sell more than a dozen sets, and the sum of seven or eight is considerable.

Adding in the three hundred sets of standard armor and weapons promised by Redwyne's twins, the total reached six to seven hundred sets.

This made Arthur very happy, but also a little anxious.

After the martial arts tournament, you must act quickly when you go to the River Bend to buy armor, otherwise, when the War of the Five Kings breaks out a few weeks apart, these elves may not be willing to fulfill their promises.

After all, in troubled times, armor is more useful than golden dragons and food.

When the neighbor farms, I make guns, and the neighbor is my granary!
