Game of Thrones: Knight of Glory

"What happened today? People who wouldn't normally show up all came to me one by one." Looking at James walking over in a hurry, Lind understood why he came here, but he still asked teasingly: "Why did you come here this time? Is there a letter that contains Jon Arryn's last wish for me?"

"Jon Arryn's last wish?" James was stunned, looked at Lind and asked, "What last wish?"

Lind took out the letter and put it on the table, and then briefly explained the reason why Ed Stark came to him and what happened.

Lind pretended to be puzzled and asked James: "What about you? Why did you come to me? If I remember correctly, you should be participating in a lance duel tomorrow afternoon. Why don't you stay home now? Rest and recharge your batteries, how come you have time to come to my place?”

At this moment, James took the letter and read it, and then couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, because he already knew why Ed Stark went to those places and met those people, and he couldn't help but feel sorry for Jon in his heart. ·Ailin cursed again and again, scolding him that he would not be able to live in peace even if he died.

James put down the letter and said, using the reason he had thought of before, "I came here to discuss with you the matter of Myrcella going to live in Summer Hall for a period of time."

"You want to discuss it with me?" Linde smiled and said, "Although you are Princess Myrcella's uncle, you are only a Kingsguard after all. It would be a bit awkward for you and me to discuss the princess's itinerary..."

James quickly realized how unreliable the reason he thought of was unreliable, but he still forcefully explained: "I just conveyed an intention. You and Cersei discuss the specific matters."

"Does Queen Cersei agree to allow Myrcella to live in Summer Hall?" Lind looked at James thoughtfully and said, "I remember that she has always been opposed to this matter. King Robert seems to have been opposed to it too, although he has always been opposed to it. The relationship between the king and the queen has always been at odds, but they agree on this matter."

James didn't know how to explain it for a while.

"You are different from Tyrion. If it were Tyrion, he should have thought of a bunch of reasons to explain it at this moment. You are more suitable to use a sword instead of your mouth." Lind looked at James and said: "I'm not asking why you came to me today. I just want to remind you that I will not intervene in the power struggle between you ancient nobles. I will leave after the tournament, so there is no need for you to stay here. waste time."

Hearing Lind's words, James couldn't help but be stunned, thinking that Lind had misunderstood that he was here to win over him on behalf of the Lannister family, so he followed Lind's words and asked: "I thought we were friends, but You will stand by your friends.”

Linde smiled and said: "Friends are not for choosing sides, and Duke Ed and I are also friends."

James was quite disappointed, sighed, and said: "It seems that I came to the wrong place today. In this case, I will leave."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Watching James leave, Lind pondered for a moment, called his attendant, handed the letter from Duke Arryn to the attendant, and asked him to immediately take all the people on the list to the dock and send them to the dock. Embark on the boat and head to Miraculous Harbor by water.

Now, James and Cersei are at their stupidest and most impulsive. Lind cannot predict what excessive things they will do after knowing that Robert and other illegitimate children will be protected by him in the future, so he will move them away now. , to avoid any accidents.

After Jaime left Lynd's mansion, he returned directly to the Red Keep and told Cersei what he learned from Lynd.

After hearing this, Cersei's face became a little ugly and said: "No, we can't let these illegitimate sons of Robert leave. If Lind protects them and uses them to seize Joffrey's throne in the future... No, this is absolutely not possible. , I don’t want another illegitimate child war, James, help me!”

Looking at the somewhat manic Cersei in front of him, James frowned and said, "What do you want to do?"

Cersei said in a deep voice: "Take people immediately to get rid of them all."

"Are you crazy?" James looked at Cersei with great disgust and said, "There are babies among those people who have just been born! You actually let me kill a defenseless child?"

"I don't care! They will threaten Joffrey's throne in the future, and they shouldn't exist." Cersei glared at James with great annoyance, and then, as if her face changed, she suddenly became extremely gentle and leaned against James. In Mu's arms, he said: "Don't forget, Joffrey is also your child. Do you want to see Joffrey being robbed of his throne by those illegitimate children one day? Have you ever thought about being robbed? How miserable would Joffrey be on the throne?"

James showed a hesitant expression on his face and said solemnly: "Linde said that he will not intervene in the power struggle in King's Landing, and he certainly will not..."

Cersei continued to persuade: "He may not, but what about the people under his command? And I will never put my hope on the promises of others. You may believe in Lynd Terra's promises, but I don't."

James fell into silence, thought for a long time, and then said slowly: "Ed Stark also knows those people. If we do it now, it will alarm Ed Stark. When the time comes, he will tell Lao about it." Bo..."

Cersei also realized this problem, hesitated for a moment, gritted her teeth and said, "In this case, let's let Joffrey sit on the Iron Throne in advance!"

"What do you mean?" James was stunned and said in a deep voice.

Cersei didn't elaborate, but just untied James' clothes. She had thought of a way to solve it once and for all, which made her very excited. She felt like a fire was igniting in her heart, burning her internal organs, and she needed to vent it out.

The next day, the martial arts tournament was held as scheduled. Although there was still a crowd of people outside the city, it was obvious that compared to the martial arts tournament back then, the current martial arts tournament was much worse.

In the tournament back then, almost all the great nobles would specially send knights or bring people to participate in person. They were all famous people. However, in the tournament now, all we see are some second-son knights and mercenary knights. Really famous and famous knights. There are only a handful of powerful knights.

Moreover, the number of participants was also much smaller. The martial arts tournament that used to take several days to complete now only takes one day to complete.

However, even so, for the people of King's Landing, this is still a grand event, one of the few entertainment activities that they can participate in with the nobles, so as before, the arena was filled with onlookers early on.

King Robert, who had just come out of the brothel, briefly freshened up and went directly to the competition field outside the city. The strong smell of alcohol on his body made Cersei, who had been waiting here early, frown.

As the protagonist, Prime Minister Ed appeared on the viewing stand with his two daughters when the shooting competition was about to begin.

Lind also followed Ed before arriving at the viewing platform. The moment he appeared, he received cheers from the vast majority of the people present in King's Landing, which shows how high his reputation is in King's Landing.

Faced with this scene, King Robert couldn't help but feel a little jealous. Before Linde could sit down, he called Linde over and said, "Bear hunter, it's too boring to watch the game like this. Why don't we bet on it?" A handful!”

"What does Your Majesty want to bet on?" Linde asked with a smile.

Robert said solemnly: "Let's bet on the final winner of the three competitions of archer competition, team competition and lance duel."

Renly, who was sitting nearby, heard this and said, "There is a gambling game, how about I join one."

"Okay." Robert also felt that his idea was good. It was a bit weak for just two people to participate. When Renly asked to participate, he naturally would not refuse. At the same time, he also invited Littlefinger, Varys and others to participate, and even Ai At his instigation, De also had to participate.

Robert was naturally the dealer, and the others gave their own lists of champions. The names on the list were almost all famous warriors and knights.

Lind also handed Robert the list he had written, and after Robert saw the list handed over by Lind, he couldn't help but ask: "Ange, Thoros of Myr, Sandor Clegane? Bear Hunter, what are you writing about?"

"Hound! Prince Lind, you would actually choose Hound to be the champion of the lance competition?" Renly was also quite surprised by Lind's list.

Hound Dog, who was involved, also looked at Linde in surprise. He and Linde had never had any interaction before, and they didn't understand why Linde thought he could become the champion of the lance competition.

However, Linde did not explain. He just wrote down the list he saw in his previous life. As for whether the final result was still the same as what was on the list, he was not sure. After all, his appearance had changed many things. What if this happened? It is also unknown whether the outcome of the tournament was changed because of his appearance.

As time went by, the results of the shooting competition championship and the team competition championship of the tournament were exactly as Lind expected, and they were won by the marksman Angei and Thoros of Myr respectively.

Everyone was also a little surprised that Linde could guess the two champions so accurately, especially in these two competitions that most people are not particularly familiar with.

Soon everyone's attention fell on the final lance duel.

In addition to the second-son knights who came to make up the numbers, the participants in the lance tournament also included some famous people, such as the Bronze Yohn Royce, the Knight of Flowers Loras Tyrell, and even Lord Renly and Jaime the Kingslayer have also come to an end, so it’s still a star-studded affair.

Among these stars, there is also a dark horse, such as Lynn Corbray from the Corbray family in the heart of the valley. Along the way, he brought Jory Kelso, Jaime Lannister, Barristan... Selmy and other famous knights finally defeated Renly Baratheon and entered the semi-finals.

However, just as the emergence of Lynn Corbray had already caused deviations in the process of this competition, the deviation appeared again in the opponent draw after entering the semi-finals. Loras's opponent was no longer the Mountain, but the Hound. , but it was Lynn Corbray’s opponent who became the Magic Mountain.

In the duel, Lynn Corbray also used the estrous mare to defeat the Magic Mountain, but he was much smarter than Loras. He knew that the Magic Mountain would go crazy due to failure, so he dismounted early and hid in the surrounding golden robes. , did not come out until the magic mountain was stopped by hunting dogs.

Later, in the duel between Hound and Loras, he lost to Loras, who was more skilled, and Lind also lost his bet.

Robert laughed happily when he saw Linde losing the bet. He looked more happy to see Linde lose money than to win money himself.

However, what made Robert even more happy was the final. In the final, Loras unexpectedly lost to Lynn Corbray, and Lynn Corbray became the champion of the lance joust. That is to say, all No one who participated in the gambling guessed the winner's list, and Robert, as the banker, became the final winner.

After the game, Lyn Brick dedicated the Queen of Love and Beauty to Sansa Stark, Eddard's daughter.

At the dinner after the tournament, Linde avoided the dignitaries attending the banquet. He carried a plate full of food and a kettle and came to the courtyard of the Red Castle. He looked quietly at the sea of ​​Blackwater Bay in the distance. enjoying the food.

Not long after, a sound of footsteps came from behind. Linde turned around and looked at the person in front of him, then continued to look at the scenery in the distance.

"Prince Lynd, don't you feel lonely when you are alone?" Cersei walked over to Lynd and sat down, smiling.

Linde had no intention of beating around the bush with Cersei, and said very directly: "Your Majesty the Queen, you'd better explain your intention directly!"

Cersei frowned, hesitated, and said, "I want those people you took away last night."

Lynde turned to look at Cersei and said: "The witch's prophecy has been fulfilled, and you still have the mood to care about those illegitimate children. Aren't you afraid?"

Cersei was stunned for a moment, as if she had thought of what Lind was saying, a panicked look appeared on her face, and asked: "What do you mean by this? What prophecy?"

"You will be your mother until another woman comes, younger and more beautiful than you, who will overthrow you and take away everything you hold dear. Your child will be crowned with gold and shrouded in gold. cloth, and you will be choked by your brother and your life will be taken away." Lind looked at Cersei and said the prophecy hidden in her heart, and said: "Part of that prophecy has been fulfilled, and there is another one. Part of it is coming true, and the end will come soon. Your Majesty, aren't you scared now?"

"How do you know this prophecy?" Cersei was so frightened that she stood up from her chair, backed away, and looked at Lynd as if she were looking at a monster.

She thought that only she knew about this prophecy, and everyone else who knew about this prophecy was dead. However, now that Linde had revealed this prophecy, she was at a loss for a moment and didn't know what to do.

Lynde looked at Cersei, as if looking at a dead object, and said: "Be careful about your brother, Your Majesty the Queen, be careful about your brother!"

Cersei was completely frightened, turned around and ran away in panic, and her figure quickly disappeared from the trees in the courtyard.
