Chapter 561 The Body of Ten Thousand Gold
When the messenger sent by the Queen leaves, the unwitting Spearwife will add firewood He was also screened out, and Igor sat up with the help of Harvey and Qyburn Maester, who had drawn back their swords. gas.

He thought that oneself counted everything, but unexpectedly: the unremarkable little maid next to Daenerys was so "vicious and merciless"!
For a moment just now, he really thought that oneself would die of pain.

"Good job." Wiping away the few beads of sweat that rolled down from his forehead, Igor said with his hairy lips, "The timing of the clearance just now was just right, and the performance was quite good. Realistic and worthy of praise!"

This compliment comes from the bottom of my heart - the situation just now can be described as at the crucial moment: if Harvey pretended to have a seizure a second earlier, Missandei would not have time to do it If he was obstructed, he would definitely have doubts in his heart; and if he couldn't restrain his instinctive leg pinching and trembling for a second at night, he would be noticed by him, and when the time came, he could only give up pretending to be dead and force him to stay.

Although it is oneself who makes them vigilant and ready to act in advance, but in all fairness, even on oneself, it is difficult to do better.

I have been with oneself for a long time, and I have been fascinated by my ears and eyes, and the people under my hands have also learned seven or eight points of his acting skills. This is probably called a close-ink person... No, close to Zhu Zhechi.

At least today, this skill comes in handy.

"Resolving the siege is really good, but I don't know if it has deceived that girl." Qyburn said worriedly, "I think she didn't give up before she left to look at the adult's bed, and she said Although he said 'Go to inform the Queen' - I don't know whether to inform the Queen or not?"

The scene was silent for a while, what Qyburn said was exactly what everyone was worried about at the moment, but he didn't The way... Even if there is doubt, they impossible to stop Missandei from letting her go.

Melisandre looked at Igor: "You didn't move when she took her last look."

"No move, hold back."

Ninety percent of the pain from the main body had receded, but it was still so intense that he could not bear it. Fortunately, the dragon scales on his chest seemed to sense that the host had been severely injured, and it actually started to heat up and sent one after another warmth to the wound. go with. Igor didn't dare and didn't have time to touch the wound, and now he can only hope - this treasure enchanted by R'hllor is magical enough to deal with this kind of unpopular trauma.

The plan to deal with the people sent by Daenerys was risky and dangerous, and he naturally hoped that Missandei would be fooled, but he climbed from the bottom step by step to where he is today, relying on-emotion If you can't get up, in principle, try to put your hopes in her hands as little as possible - especially a hot hand.

Rejecting Qyburn's suggestion to check his injury, he proceeded to organize and implement the Third Step plan in an orderly manner as originally planned.

This last step is divided into two parts, corresponding to two situations: Daenerys comes, or does not come.

Qyburn and Melisandre are a team, they are responsible for the ideal situation of "Queen's visit", the mission is nothing more than the preparation of some words, routines and spell casting ceremony, not only the workload is small, but also the Complete early and early, only owe Dongfeng.

And the other group...the whole Land Granter to be exact, had to make arrangements for the bad situation - "Queen and Unsullied Evacuate Winter". Their mission includes not only fighting against the Unsullied Guard, capturing the Queen alive in the chaos, but also arranging artillery to prepare for dragon hunting, as well as alerting the movement of the Terror Fort outside the city and the North coalition led by Robb, etc. - not only is the mission arduous and arduous, but also The big challenge remains: Soldiers will start with sudden news.

In order to ensure the fidelity of this big drama and to reduce the risk of information leakage in the future, the truth of this poisoning incident is known only to a few people in the core circle who can count with one hand, that is, Said: There are more than 4,000 land-grant soldiers inside and outside the castle. They really thought that Igor was poisoned and in danger. Under such circumstances, suddenly getting the latest order and hurriedly starting to execute it, the test of organization and discipline is arduous, and even Igor oneself has no idea in his heart.

One after another orders came out from the Lord Commander's room densely through Harvey's mouth to the outside world, and the soldiers of the Land Granter Army woke up and shoved under the soft calls or shoves of their commanders and colleagues. Start to dress and arm quietly...

If everything goes well, the second round message will notify everyone "Lord Commander is safe, the previous assembly was a false alarm, everyone goes back to bed and continues to sleep. ".

If things don't go well, the Land Granter Command will announce that "the poisoners were sent by the Queen", and use this as an excuse to immediately launch a battle that will shock the Seven Kingdoms up and down and the narrow sea. On both sides of the Taiwan Strait, the notorious level is more than the betrayal and mutiny of "Red Wedding" in the original plot.

The tense waiting made Time Flow Speed slow, and after the long ten minutes passed, the news came from the night sentinel outside the house: the two messengers of the Queen returned to the guest room building. Before long, the battallion Unsullied soldiers began to send orders back and forth, and after a while, escorted the Queen... toward the land-grant camp!

It's not for nothing!
Igor hurriedly lay back on the bed, motioned to Harvey to send orders to stop the land-grant operation, and nervously urged Qyburn and Melisandre: "Bring the medicine, and give me two more spells, my body starts to hurt. It's hot!"

＊＊＊

Except for Little Brother's "flying disaster", everything is not out of the script in Igor's heart, if you have to insist on the current situation What threats and hidden dangers were found in the game, it was probably that Daenerys was even more advanced, and while seeing that it was a scam, he quickly completed the preparations in just a few minutes-before sending a team of people to impersonate While coming to visit to paralyze oneself, the deity has quietly escaped the winter in another way.

If this is the case, Igor really doesn't have a good way to deal with the lack of eyeliner around Queen.

But such a bizarre Divine Grade operation did not appear in this thousand-year-old castle in the cold wind. Daenerys Targaryen himself was undoubtedly the one who came, and the last twists and turns only happened outside the door. Interlude: The dozens of Unsullied soldiers accompanying the Queen put an invisible strain on the nervous night soldiers and the Lord Commander Guard, who refused their request to accompany Daenerys into the house due to safety concerns. After a brief confrontation, the loyal guards reached an agreement after the Queen himself gave in and Harvey's timely mediation: Daenerys could bring the maid and two Unsullied into the house, and Harvey also chose two soldiers from the Land Granters to enter. escort.

So, after a while, the Dragon Queen sat on the bedside stool where Missandei had tripped over not long ago, holding Igor's hand sadly, feeling the coldness from it. I mean, there is no more fear or doubt about him.

"Ms. Melisandre, is the method you mentioned earlier guaranteed to save him?"

"I'm 90% sure." "But I have to speak frankly - because Lord Commander has been in a coma for half a day due to poisoning, it is very likely that his brain has been traumatized, and there is a certain probability of memory loss, decreased intelligence, or even after awakening. . . . forever in a coma, in a vegetative state."

These lines were designed by Igor, and she was specifically told not to change half a sentence - Melisandre didn't quite understand why it was so superfluous: Wan Isn't it self-defeating for Daenerys to back down after hearing that Blood Magic might still fail?

The witch's concerns were well-founded, but what she didn't know was that the latter passage was tailor-made for her by Igor knowing Daenerys' character and past experience: the latter was listening After Melisandre's "confession", he followed the inducement almost immediately, thinking of oneself's first husband.

Khal Drogo was also accidentally injured and his life was at stake, and he was pulled back from the brink of death by Blood Magic... but oneself was deceived by the vicious Maegi, and offered sacrifices under ignorant circumstances. Sacrifice the fetus in her womb and save her husband at the expense of Rhaego, the True Dragon bloodline of her first and only child.

She paid a heavy price for unimaginable, but only got a body that couldn't think, and finally even had to end his life by herself - that was her eternal trauma, even after many years, every time she dreamed of it. The scene where oneself is forced to smother Khal Drogo with a pillow, Daenerys would wake up with tears in his eyes but cold sweat all over his body.

What if this time... the same method, the same way to save a man she cares about, but only to live and not wake up, what should she do?
is it possible that, suffocating Lord Commander of the Night's Watch with a pillow?
Trapped in the quagmire of memories, Red Woman's voice brings Dany back to reality: "But I also have to remind Your Majesty - the probability of the next few bad situations, as Lord Commander falls into a coma As time goes by, Your Majesty has to make a decision as soon as possible. Whether to save or not to save, Your Majesty must make a decision as soon as possible. If not, please arrange for Your Majesty to evacuate to winter as soon as possible. In case Lord Commander's physical condition, which could have been completely recovered, deteriorated to an irreversible level just because of this brief hesitation, then it would be too late to regret it!"

Daenerys resigned and raised his head again. , looking at Igor's really speaking of which I haven't known each other for a long time, but I don't know why it's already very cordial... I used to be full of heroism and arrogance, but now it's calm and pale and lifeless. Ten fingers squeezed him tightly. cold hands.

"Your Majesty, please save the Lord Commander!" Harvey pleaded loudly, fully armed, kneeling without the slightest hesitation to the crash-bang of armor." As long as Lord Commander can survive this crisis, the Land Grant Army general Yongming Your Majesty will repay Supreme's loyalty and bravery!"

Daenerys didn't rush to get up to kneel. The person below, but turned around after a glance, without even moving her buttocks, she continued to stare at Igor's face and engaged in a fierce inner struggle - she was the legitimate king of the Seven Kingdoms, the monarch who swore allegiance to the Land Granters, More than body worth a thousand gold? Her identity can already be worthy of any gift from the soldiers who donated the land, not to mention: what she is about to decide is...whether or not to bleed to save the Lord Commander of the Night's Watch, if the answer is yes, then the price she pays The meaning of the former and the former can be fully worthy of the respect and gratitude of the land-grant army.

“Your Majesty, you don’t need to worry too much.” Qyburn Maester quietly leaned over to her, leaned down and said in a low voice, “Lord Commander Megatron inside and outside the Wall, as long as he can save his life, even if his brain is injured It is also a great deterrent to that group of wildling soldiers. When the time comes, you only need to announce to the public that he is only temporarily in a coma. When the bosses come to see Lord Igor breathing smoothly and heartbeat strong, they will never dare to make trouble. When the time comes Your Majesty Whether it's sending the Land Granters back to the Land Grant and beyond the wall to relieve their threat to the North and the Seven Kingdoms, or taking advantage of this Trying to buy and surrender for a while, as much as you can bring in, is much better than letting things go!"

Although he is confident in the importance Daenerys places on oneself, Igor still dare not seek death, while deliberately using the point of "may fail" to evoke her memory, and creating a sense of gain and loss with a hard-to-play method, he also didn't forget to give the other party a few more reasons to save oneself to ensure that the plan would not be ruined by his arrogance. Fall short.

 …

In the fireplace, enough wood still burned the light sound of the crackle, but the temperature had come in and out with Missandei and Daenerys and a group of soldiers After coming out, it dropped a lot. In this piece of heat that had eased a lot, Daenerys sat and thought for a minute, let go of Igor's hand and stood up, under the staring gaze of more than a dozen eyes, he turned to the same uneasy in his heart. Red Woman, gave the final decision.

"Since it's not too late, let's get started."
