Game of Thrones: I loaded the witcher system.

Chapter 9 The King in the North
King Robert's footsteps were fast, and Clay estimated that he would take two months to reach Winterfell because of his debauchery.

However, it has only been a month and a half since Clay, who was standing at the head of Winterfell chatting with Rob, has already seen the royal knight who was one step ahead.

He didn't know the knight himself, but it was hard to ignore the crowned stag banner flying in the wind from his saddle.

"Tsk, the stag's horns are about to appear in Winterfell, how about Rob, I heard that the queen and her two younger brothers are coming together this time, so are the direwolf's teeth sharpened?" ?”

Clay clicked his tongue and looked at the two knights who were getting closer. The direwolf banner and the crowned stag banner advanced together, just like usurping the Seizer War decades ago.

"Those are the most distinguished siblings in the Seven Kingdoms. I might as well kiss her hand. Besides, the rights of guests cannot be violated."

Rob tightened his cloak and spoke slowly, but his brows were still frowning.

Clay curled his lips and smiled, stretched out his hand and tugged at the bearded cheek of the young master of the North, but was avoided by the latter, and asked Clay with a strange face:
"what are you doing?"

"Has anyone ever told you that you Starks never lie?"

"Nonsense, we..." Rob subconsciously wanted to refute, but the words got stuck in his throat. After a while, he said sullenly:

"Yeah, this land in the north has never taught us this..."

Rob stared blankly at the two fast horses galloping in from the east gate, and then looked at Clay after a long time:
"Am I covering it up so badly?"

"I'm not a wolf, but I also know that baring your teeth too early will only make you shoot an arrow at you immediately." Clay shrugged, and he patted Rob on the shoulder:

"I'll give you a suggestion. Except for essential occasions, don't meet with members of the Lannister family, so as not to make yourself uncomfortable."

Talking about life and women with Rob these days, in addition to learning the dirty jokes of Winterfell's specialty, Clay also knows that although Duke Eddard rarely mentioned the usurper war with his children, the Lannister family The bad thing is no less said.

At least for Rob, he is very aware of the bad things that the Lannister family did after entering King's Landing, and he knows how the name Kingslayer came about.

So Rob's reaction to the Lannister family Clay is not surprising at all, like a father, like a son, honestly don't lie to me.

The next morning, Clay never saw the Stark brothers and sisters on the school grounds as usual. According to his sister Vera who finally remembered who her brother was, Sansa and the others were called by their mistress Caitlin early in the morning. I went to teach meeting etiquette.

Clay seized the opportunity and briefly asked his sister what she had been doing in Winterfell for the past two months and who she was staying with.

As a result, Vera answered very bluntly, but only two names were mentioned in the answer: Sansa and Aaliyah.

Looking at Vera who was in a happy mood, Clay's eyes were full of pity, and she really didn't understand the meaning of the old man's consent to her coming to Winterfell.

Huhulala said a lot, and Clay never heard Robb Stark's name at all. The old man expected his granddaughter's dream of being a mistress in the North to go bankrupt again.

He could already guess what the old man's reaction would be after Vera told the old man what he had said...

When the time came to noon, a golden and silver procession approached, and Clay finally saw the legendary King of the Seven Kingdoms and his party.

There are about 300 of them, most of them are nobles with status and status, and the worst of them is a knight.

Dozens of flags were fluttering, most of which were crowned stag flags that symbolized the royal family, and a few flags were embroidered with golden roaring lions on a red background. Lord Eddard must hate seeing it, Clay thought.

Standing on a higher place, Clay didn't let the guards unfurl the mermaid banner of the Mandalay house. Firstly, it was unnecessary, and secondly, he was going to sneak into the master's backyard soon. It's always better to keep a low profile.

It didn't take long for Clay to see the person surrounded by two snow-white cloaked Kingsguards. There was no doubt that it was His Majesty the King they respected most.

Sure enough, even on a horse, King Robert could hardly hide his fat figure, but unlike the ugly big man in Clay's impression, although this king was a lot greasy, his demeanor remained the same.

Being in the top position for a long time has a certain air, and no one reminded him, but it is obvious that no one in the team can be worthy of the word "king" except him.

After seeing the most eye-catching king and the outrageously decorated queen's wheel palace, everything becomes dull.

There is nothing to see here anymore, Clay doesn't like this kind of complicated and lengthy etiquette among nobles at all, even though he himself is a noble young master with good roots.

He grabbed the excited younger sister Vera, unexpectedly, Vera shook off her brother's hand without looking at him, and was looking at the knights embroidered with crowned and stag crests with relish.

Let her go. Anyway, before coming, Clay had already made it clear to Vera that the royal family would never allow her to contact her. Vera agreed. At this time, to satisfy Vera's curiosity, Clay also It's not good to force her.

The king is in the north. Since Jaehaerys I came to Winterfell with his dragon, it seems that this is the second time that the King of the Seven Kingdoms has stepped into the gate of Winterfell.

Times have changed, things have changed, and the Targaryen royal family that was closest to the gods in those days now has only two survivors on the other side of the narrow sea, and the rest are reduced to dry bones.

But then again, after ruling Westeros for more than 200 years, Clay is well aware of the powerful influence of the name Targaryen among ordinary nobles.

To give the simplest example, after the usurper war is over, the reason why Robert can sit safely on the Iron Throne is that apart from his ability to conquer wars, his Targaryen blood is definitely the biggest reason he can win the crown. bonus.

Although Daenerys will have to deal with the big trouble in the future, Clay can only think about it now. With a White Harbor behind him, he is not qualified to be on the poker table.

Back in his room, Clay took out his night-traveling infiltration equipment and checked again.

On the family robes, Clay has prepared a set of black smocks that are easy to take off, because this is Winterfell with many people and eyes, after all, this outfit can only be used to enter the godswood, in case there is a situation to hide For eyes and ears.

In the main city of Winterfell, this set of clothes that don't look like a good person is absolutely unacceptable, especially since Robert has arrived, and Clay is an assassin if he wears it.

People who usually stopped to say hello along the way became hurried. When seeing Clay, they often nodded or hummed in their mouths. It can be seen that the Stark family has done enough for this welcome. Prepare.

The noise in the city became more apparent as night fell, and Clay was invited to a dinner in the Great Hall of Winterfell, an invitation he could not refuse.
