Chapter 232 Hysterical Lysa Tully

Gao Yuan and others entered the castle under the leadership of Sir Vardis Egan. The scale of Eagle's Nest City is not large, but it consists of seven white spiers crowded together like rocket boosters. On top of the mountain.

It had no stables, smithy, or kennels, though, and those were in the Skyhold beneath their feet.But Ai De once told Gao Yuan that the granary here is almost as big as the city of Winter, and it can guarantee that 500 people will have no worries about food and clothing for half a year when the Eagle's Nest City is besieged.

The tower in the castle is enough to accommodate [-] soldiers. However, when Gao Yuan passed through it, he found that the castle was extremely desolate at this time. The hall made of white stone echoed everywhere and was empty.

The Moon Gate that Ser Vardis Egan called was set in a long and simple hall, which was also the main hall of the Eagle's Nest City, and the walls were made of blue-veined white marble.A crescent-shaped staircase led to the high seat of the lord of House Arryn, a throne carved from weirwood.

When Gao Yuan and the others entered the hall, the widow of Lord Jon Arryn was sitting on the weirwood throne with her breasts open.

Even if the two were separated by more than ten meters, Gao Yuan could smell the pungent perfume coming from the heavily made-up Mrs. Lysa.It seems that Lady Lysa really went to great lengths to attract and satisfy her suitors.

It is rumored that Lysa Tully was also a peerless beauty in the riverland in her early years, and her beauty was not inferior to her sister Caitlin in the slightest.At that time, she had a slender figure and a straight bust that many women envied, but what appeared in front of Gao Yuan now was just a fat woman in her forties or fifties, with rough and dull skin and wandering eyes.

Lady Lysa should be thankful that her once loose, waist-length auburn hair is still there.It was the symbol of being a Tully, and Sansa Stark had beautiful reddish-brown hair.

Gao Yuan really didn't know how those canyon lords who pursued Mrs. Lysa uttered those words of praise and admiration.Now he felt disgusted just by looking at the other party. If Gao Yuan were to face Mrs. Lysa, it would be better to kill him if he said those words against his will.

The guests in the hall seem to have gotten used to this, including the canyon lords who came with Gao Yuan.Apparently, most of them have seen this and that.

At the scene, only Gao Yuan and Bronze Jon were frowning. Bronze Jon had also pursued Lady Lysa before. Maybe he, like Gao Yuan, could not understand Lady Lysa's doting on Duke Robert.

The Crescent Falcon banner of House Arryn on the Weirwood Throne was fluttering in the wind, Gao Yuan was speechless watching this scene.Duke Jon Arryn of the Wise I would never have imagined that his only heir would look like this now.

No wonder the lords of the Vale were anxious to choose a new husband for Lysa.

"Mom?" Robert Arryn struggled to stand up from his mother's arms, holding a tattered puppet toy in his arms, and looked at Gao Yuan and the others below with wide eyes.

The child was small and pitiful, smaller than boys of the same age, with two dark bags under the eyes on his sickly face, and he was still trembling, as if he had exhausted all his strength to stand up.

"Is he the bad guy you said was coming to bully us?" Robert Arryn pointed at Gao Yuan rudely.

"It's him!" Madam Lysa stared at Gao Yuan viciously, as if she wanted to tear him apart, her voice was sharp and harsh, "He is the bad guy King Robert sent to bully us."

"He doesn't look like a bad guy, though," chuckled Lord Robert. "Can we let him fly?"

"Not yet, baby!"

"Sir Nestor, I remember that I sent a letter to the Gate of the Moon a few days ago, asking you to bring this man to the Eagle's Nest City." Lady Lysa gently stroked Robert Arryn's hair , and questioned Sir Nestor, "Why didn't you bring him before me until now."

Being so belittled, no matter how good-tempered Gao Yuan was, he couldn't bear it any longer. He waved his hand to stop Sir Nestor who wanted to stand up and explain, and retorted severely: "Lysa Tully, I am not yours." prisoner!"

"I brought Sir Barristan, Captain of King Robert's Kingsguard, here today to announce the king's appointment to you and Duke Robert." Gao Yuan's voice was like a dragon roaring, "As the new Eastlander Guardian and Duke of the Eagle's Nest, when I choose to come to the Eagle's Nest, I'm afraid it's not up to you."

The thick voice made little Robert tremble all over. Frightened, he plunged into Lady Lysa's arms, hugging his mother tightly, and the old doll fell to the ground.

"Shut up!" Lady Lysa snapped, "You're scaring my child."

"My dear baby, don't be afraid! With Mummy here, he can't hurt you." Lady Lysa patted little Robert's back gently, "We can watch him later Fly down from the moon gate."

Gao Yuan is not the cowardly boy in her arms, Mrs. Lysa's scolding has no effect on him.Since the other party is stubborn, Gao Yuan can only choose to be tough.Anyway, all the canyon lords are now on his side, no matter how reluctant she is, he still has enough confidence to force Lady Lysa to submit.

"Sir Barristan, start announcing the king's appointment directly." Gao Yuan turned his head and ordered.

Sir Barristan held the king's letter of appointment in his hand, looked awkwardly at Lady Lysa and Duke Robert on the throne, and said hesitantly: "My lord, why don't we announce the appointment after Lady Lysa calms down first, I'm afraid she's going to do something irrational."

"Hmph, I think she's very calm now! She just wants to get away with cheating and fooling around. Relying on the guards in Eagle's Nest City, I'm sure I won't dare to do anything to her now." Gao Yuan snorted coldly and said, "Daiba Sir Listan, after you read the letter of appointment, I will be the duke of the Eagle's Nest and the Guardian of the East, and all the guards of the Eagle's Nest will obey me, and you will see how she continues to mess around."

"How dare you!" Lady Lysa's scream echoed throughout the Great Hall of the Eyrie, echoing from the creamy white walls and slender pillars, for everyone to hear, "How dare you threaten me and my family here! Son, don't forget where you are. This is the Eyrie. All around you are knights of the Vale. They are all loyal to my husband and my son's father, Jon Arryn. There is so much respect and love, each of them is willing to sacrifice their lives for me."

"Lady Lysa Tully, I never thought of threatening the safety of you and the Duke of Robert Arryn." Gao Yuan retorted without humility, "I just want Sir Barristan to read to you the king's tribute to me." letter of appointment."

"I have come to the Vale of Arryn by the king's order, to perform the duties of the Guardian of the East and the Duke of the Eyrie on behalf of Lord Robert Arryn."

"In the meantime, not only will I not harm you, but I will always keep you safe, and in accordance with King Robert's wishes, I will take care of Duke Robert's healthy growth until he reaches adulthood."

The reason why Gao Yuan explained so patiently was not to dispel Madam Lysa's suspicion, but to explain his purpose to the guards of Eyrie City and other nobles present, and to assure them that he would never harm Lord Jon. the only heir.

"After that, I will step down from these hereditary positions of the House of Arryn, return them to the hands of Lord Robert, who has grown up, and leave the Vale of Arryn."

"You're lying." Madam Lysa hysterically accused Gao Yuan of lying. Even though Gao Yuan was patient enough to explain her reason for coming to him, she still refused to believe that she came here with good intentions.

Gao Yuan was not surprised by this, because according to Madam Lysa's original plan, she and her beloved little finger, Petyr Baelish, would stay and fly together in the Vale of Arryn.As the guardian of the east and the mother of the Duke of the Eagle's Nest, no one will be able to stop her from being with her beloved.

This is her long-cherished wish for many years!

Seeing that his long-cherished wish for many years is about to come true, now a spoiler suddenly appears.She has just mobilized the lords in the valley to resist Jaime Lannister as the new guardian of the east.Robert Baratheon, the damned king, suddenly sent a high-ranking ser.

If Gao Yuan is allowed to successfully become the new guardian of the east and the Duke of the Eagle's Nest City, her dream will be shattered, which almost drives her into madness.Even if Mrs. Lysa believed that Gao Yuan had not lied, and indeed came here with good intentions, she would not be able to let Gao Yuan succeed.

Seeing Mrs. Lysa falling into madness, Gao Yuan understood that it would be useless to talk more.He nodded to Ser Barristan, motioning him to do as he wished, without worrying about Lysa Tully, a crazy woman.

Ser Barristan, who received Gao Yuan's signal, walked to the moon gate and held up the letter of appointment in his hand so that everyone present could see the lacquered seal on it: "The seal of King Robert Baratheon I, In perfect condition!"

After everyone saw the lacquer seal on it, Sir Barristan opened the letter of appointment in his hand and began to read the contents: "I hereby honor the Andals. Robert Baratheon I Name. Appointed Sir Gaoyuan to temporarily act as the Guardian of the East and the Duke of the Eagle's Nest. The appointment will be valid until the end of Lord Robert Arryn's coming of age."

"Ser Egan, shut him up," Lady Lysa yelled angrily, hoping that Jon Arryn's head of guards would stop this from happening.

It's a pity that no matter how she screamed and shouted, everyone in the Eagle's Nest Hall remained indifferent, not only Sir Vardis Egan and the guards of the Eagle's Nest; even the respected lords behind Gao Yuan So do they.

"Sir Gao Yuan is temporarily acting. During this period, all vassals must obey Sir Gao Yuan." Sir Barristan's reading continued, "Anyone who disobeys this order will be charged with rebellion and treason."

"."

Amidst Lady Lysa's screams and shouts, Ser Barristan's reading of the king's appointment was finally over, carefully recoiling the parchment in his hand.

"Sir Barristan!" Just as Sir Barristan was about to return the letter of appointment to Gao Yuan, Sir Vardis Egan, the captain of the guards of Eagle's Nest City, suddenly stopped him, "You can hand over the letter of appointment to me for confirmation Please? As the guard captain of Eagle's Nest City, I think it is necessary for me to confirm that the content above is indeed as you read it."

As soon as Sir Vardis Egan's words came out, everyone in the hall immediately aroused a lot of discussion. It was obvious that Sir Egan was ready to stand in line.No matter when Lord Jon Arryn was alive or after the lord he loyal to died, Sir Egan has always served as the captain of the guards of the Arryn family.

At this critical moment when the new guardian of the valley took over, in the eyes of many people, Sir Egan is the one who is the least likely to defect. He will definitely devote himself to his duties and always guard the orphans and widows of the Arryn family.

But what was unexpected was that, apart from those canyon lords who had sworn allegiance, he was actually the first person in the Ayrin family to turn against Gao Yuan.

What Ser Vardis Egan thought, perhaps only he knew.Maybe he is really a fool, falling west when the east wind blows; or maybe he can't believe Gao Yuan's words, pretending to be loyal to keep his position as the captain of the Eagle's Nest City Guards, so as to stay by Lord Robert Arryn's side, Personally protect the only heir left by Lord Jon Arryn.

No matter what kind of thoughts the other party has to seek refuge with him, Gao Yuan doesn't care much about it.Even if the other party sincerely takes refuge in him, Gao Yuan will not reuse him.No lord would like an idiot. Today you betray the Ayrin family who have been loyal to you for many years, and tomorrow you will still betray me when the situation is not right.

Moreover, Sir Vardis Egan's ability is not very prominent in the original book, when Tyrion Lannister refused to admit the crime of murdering Jon Arryn and asked for a trial by combat.He was designated as an acting knight by Lysa Tully, and he played in full armor. Because of his slow and clumsy movements, he was teased and easily killed by Tyrion's acting knight Bronn.

However, whether it is out of the need to bribe people or to appease those canyon knights who are vacillating and haven't thought about swearing allegiance, he will retain the other party's original position in the Eagle's Nest City.

If Ser Vardis Egan pretended to surrender in order to stay with the little Duke Robert to protect him, Gao Yuan would not hold him accountable for this act of loyalty, anyway, he had no intention of murdering the young Lord Robert Arryn.

At a loss, Sir Barristan turned his head to look at Gao Yuan, asking him for advice with his eyes, Gao Yuan nodded in response, and agreed to Sir Egan's request.

In the hall of Eagle's Nest City at this moment, all the canyon lords are their own people who have sworn allegiance to Gao Yuan, and they are all witnesses of this appointment ceremony.

When Ser Barristan finished reading the above, the commission in his hand was no longer important.Even if this Ser Egan wants to emulate Queen Cersei and tear up King Robert's appointment in public, it will not help.
