Caitlin Tully also took the lead in order to defend her sister: "Her letter clearly stated that she must take her son back to the Eyrie City to inherit the title. The nobles are in King's Landing, but the soldiers are all in the valley!"

She turned to Werther again and said, "If you hadn't let Dennis Ayrin go, the matter would not have turned into what it is now!"

Unreasonable for the sake of my sister?Veins had already popped out on Werther's head, if it wasn't for the fact that she was Robb's mother and a woman, a dragon's roar would have spewed out.

"Everyone calm down!" Ed finally spoke.

Edmure Tully saw that her sister was so strong and dared to talk back to the king and Werther, so she quickly stopped Caitlin: "Calm down, let's analyze it."

Witte also calmed down:

"Well, let me analyze it for you. It doesn't matter whether the old Duke of Vale has white hair or blond hair, but your Tully family has red hair. Come and teach me, how! Give birth! Brown hair! Son!" After a pause, Werther's fingers banged on the table.

Caitlin Tully asked Werther back: "Then how can you confirm that Duke Jon wasn't brown-haired when he was young? Do you know who his mother is?" Everyone was taken aback.

This question really stumped everyone. Most history books record wars. Books about the appearance of family members like this are usually written by each family themselves and stored in their own castles.

Robert looked at Eddard Stark: "I only know that the father of the adoptive father is Jasper Arryn, Ned? Do you have a picture of the mother of the adoptive father?"

Ed Stark also looked embarrassed: "I don't know, when we went to Eagle's Nest, his adoptive father was already in his 50s."

Robert: "Genealogy! It seems that the family tree of the Arryn family is the key evidence!"

Werther turned to Robert: "My prime minister's term is only a few days away. I hope to resolve this matter during my term of office. Your Majesty the King, please give an order. I will go to the Eagle's Nest City to pick up the book myself!"

Chapter 160 IX Public Relations Activities

Alda Viying has never been to the valley, and he has no navigation system. At night, except for the candlelight in the rich man's room, the wilderness is completely dark.

King Robert's orders were delivered, and Werther set out for the Eyrie the next morning.

Nymeria and Tyene went to assist the relocation of the Alchemist Guild, and for the past two days, little Rose Margaret enjoyed Werther alone.

The roosters in the city began to crow, a gust of fresh air wafted in from the open windows, the sky was no longer dark, and the sun had not yet risen, and the outlines of the clouds could be seen clearly when looking up.

"It's already dawn?" Werther looked out the window.

"Don't worry, we agreed eight times today, and we have two left!" Little Rose Margery rolled over and pressed Werther under her body.

The sun has come out, and the city of King's Landing has become noisy, with countless residents shouting and cursing.When the giant dragon took off from the ruins of the dragon's lair, it brought up a huge cloud of smoke and dust, which fell into the city and sprinkled another layer of ash on the clothes of the residents to dry.

On Ao Daweiying, Werther did not stand on top of his head as usual, but lay on his back that was the most stable during its flight, holding a thorn tightly with his hands, and he was already asleep.

In Little Rose Margaery's room, she had her legs raised high on the wall, her lower body was covered with two pillows, and she was lying on her back on the bed with her feet up and her head down.

Renly and Loras Tyrell, the Knight of Flowers, opened the door and entered the room. Seeing Little Rose's movements, Renly sat on the edge of the bed and stroked her belly and asked:

"Are you pregnant?"

Little Rose tilted her head and looked at the two of them: "What do you know, even if you are pregnant, you can't tell now."

"Oh."

The two men really haven't studied these.

Loras Tyrell picked up Little Rose's clothes from the sofa and threw them on the bed: "Hurry up and wash them, and put on your clothes. Father is going to entertain the nobles in the river at noon today."

Little Rose: "Isn't it still early?"

Renly took out a black Valyrian steel pocket watch from his pocket, opened the case with a stag engraved on it, and put it in front of Little Rose: "Look at what time it is!"

"It's almost noon?"

Startled, Little Rose immediately turned over, grabbed a piece of clothing and put it on.There was a water basin in the room, she walked over and picked up a wet towel to wipe her body, then picked it up and smelled it: "It's too wasteful!"

Renly took Loras's hand and was about to walk out of the room: "The two of us will wait for you downstairs first, and I will call the maid to help you get dressed."

Acting Prime Minister Werther Baratheon was sent by the king to the Eyrie.Bachelor Komon, who followed the old prime minister, had already told Werther where the genealogy was stored. According to the king, even though there was a giant dragon, he couldn't find his way the first time he went there, and it would take four days at the earliest to come back.

The official Hand of the King is known by the name, and the king can also appoint a candidate himself.However, according to Robert's meaning this time, the imperial meeting should be adopted, and then voted to decide.

There are now three candidates: Mace Tyrell, Duke of the Reach, Eddard Stark, Duke of the North, and Tywin Lannister, Duke of the West.

A large number of nobles in the western region are still participating in the martial arts tournament in King's Landing City, and they proposed Taiwen just to take into account the face of the western region.It's his business if he doesn't come, but you have to mention your name, which is also to satisfy the sense of honor of the nobles in the western region.

Ed Stark, the Duke of the North, was also the adopted son of the former Hand of the King. He grew up together. Robert's favorite person was his dead sister, which even triggered a war that spread to the Seven Kingdoms.

But also because the relationship between the two is so good, Ed is drawn to drink by Robert every day. Who are Robert's drinking friends?It should be said that there were all kinds of people, from the highest to the duke, down to the mercenary, even if it was an enemy who had just been on the battlefield, after the battle, Robert might bring him to the table to drink with him.

The residence of Lord Mace Tyrell of the Reach in King's Landing is very large, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the most magnificent in the city.In the aristocratic residential area on Steel Street, he bought two adjacent houses a few years ago, demolished and rebuilt a four-story luxury mansion.It has the largest and most luxurious banquet hall in King's Landing except for the Red Castle.

"Ed Stark has a way to seize this opportunity. It seems that only I have the best chance to become the new Prime Minister, but why is my daughter still not here? These people are really difficult to deal with." He held a wine glass and joked with the nobles of King's Landing City Then, he could pick up some words, but he couldn't pick up some words, so he could only laugh dryly from the sidelines, with an anxious expression on his face.

"Renly Baratheon, Lord of the Stormlands, and his wife, Lady Margaery Tyrell!" shouted the page at the door.

Mace Tyrell's anxious face was instantly filled with joy. He apologized to the nobles around him, and immediately went to the door to chat with his son-in-law Renly. Little Rose Margaery walked to her father's side naturally, holding his arm. arm.

Mace and Renly were very familiar with each other. The two parties had been in business for more than ten years, and with a few polite words, Renly asked Little Rose to accompany his father, while he and Loras went to the side for a drink.Today is Mace's home game, and he wants to win over the nobles of the riverlands.

Little Rose: "It's useless for Ed to drink with the king every day. They are some little nobles. His wife Caitlin Tully often attends the banquets in the city, but they are all showing off her son."

Mace's face was full of smiles: "Then my chance is very high?"

Little Rose: "White and Renly have promised to vote for you."

Mace was stunned: "I don't have a vote myself?"

Little Rose took her father's hand: "If you have enough votes, you can abstain or vote for Ed!"

Mace reacted: "I understand, I understand, but this is only two votes."

A nobleman toasted Mace, and the father and daughter chatted with each other. With the help of Little Rose, Mace quickly chatted with each other.

Renly and the Knight of Flowers drank wine and chatted about the tournament.Renly himself is a powerful magician, and was influenced by Werther's style, so the number of personal guards around him is pitifully small.Now that she is married, the bodyguards will have to allocate manpower to protect Little Rose and prepare to expand their own bodyguards.

Loras: "Is there a suitable candidate?"

Renly: "The best ones to protect Margaery are women. My apprentice Sansa Stark is one of them. But she is too young and timid. She needs to study for a few more years."

Loras: "Speaking of women, today I saw a tall female knight in the arena. She is from your Stormlands. Come and see me tomorrow. If she wins the competition this afternoon, it will happen to be me tomorrow." opponent."

On the other side of the banquet hall, after a little free time, Margaery and Mace, the father and daughter, began to whisper again.

Little Rose: "The Grand Maester is from the Academy City. The Academy City is located in the Reach. He knows who he wants to vote for. The Kingsguard Barristan and Chief Intelligence Officer Varys have special identities. You cannot contact them."

Mace: "Then it's only three votes, it's still not safe."

After chatting with a noble lady, Little Rose said to her father, "Don't forget, Werther Baratheon is still the Chief Archmage. He holds two votes, and you now have four votes!"

Mace was very excited: "Yes! Yes! Then who shall we fight for next?"

Little Rose looked at her father puzzled.

The daughter looked at him, and it took Mace a long time to turn his head: "Hahaha, there is only one Sea Lord Stannis left!"

Chapter 170

With Werther leading him out of the city, Dennis Ayling called everyone he could muster to go north together.

Ashara Dayne is also the earl now, and there are two soldiers of his own behind him. These two men only carry long guns, and their duty is to raise the flag for Ashara and cheer for him.

The three of Ashara plus Dennis Ayrin's knights and nobles, the number has reached thirty.All dressed in armor and armed with weapons, they rode on the King's Road. Not many robbers dared to provoke them, and within a few days they crossed the Valley Road and came to the Gate of Blood.

The Bright Moon Mountains are extremely steep. If you want to enter the Vale of Arryn, you must either take a boat, or you can only enter from the only entrance, the Valley Road. The Blood Gate was built on the most precipitous part of the Valley Road.

The valley road became more and more winding after arriving here, with almost vertical cliffs on both sides. Not even trees could grow on the smooth cliffs, and there were only a few weeds dotted on the white cliffs. A solid rock fortress was built at this place.

The tall and thick gatehouse, the thick iron fence gate, and the two watchtowers are built on both sides of the rock wall, and there is an arch bridge in the middle.When the nobles educate their children, they will warn them not to try to attack this place by force, unless the underground rocks are softened with the blood of soldiers.

"Who is going to pass through the bloody gate?" The soldiers trained on the gate tower shouted when they saw someone.

"I am the Guardian of the Gates of the Moon, Ser Denys Arryn! We are returning to the Eyrie!"

"Please show the flag!"

The group of people did not raise their banners all the way. Dennis Arryn waved his hand, and a knight took out a banner from his horse and raised it with both hands: the soaring sky-blue eagle of the Arryn family.

"Please wait a moment." The soldier went to inform the commander.

It wasn't long before a man in mail and a black fish insignia on his burqa came up the tower.He didn't speak, and kept looking at Dennis Ayrin and his group.

He received a letter from his niece Lysa Tully telling him to intercept and kill Dennis Arryn.Afterwards, I received letters from other nobles in the valley, some asking him to let go, some asking him to keep him alive, and some asking him to make the same request as his niece.

Hei Yu is also very old, his face is full of vicissitudes and his head is gray, but his thick eyebrows and blue eyes are very energetic.When he was young, he opposed the marriage contract arranged by his brother and ran away from home, wandering in Westeros by himself.

Integrity, humility, strong martial arts, and kindness to people. Because of his qualities, the old Prime Minister Jon Arryn named him a knight of the blood gate and asked him to guard the most important pass in the valley.

Heiyu is now thinking about the complexity of the matter. His nephews and nieces are usually very kind to them, and they are the first to rush to help if they need help.

But now it involves the issue of the heir to the Duke of the Valley. One side is the usurper mentioned in everyone's letter, and the other is his niece. But someone mentioned that her son is a wild species, and now he is waiting for the king's judgment. He is releasing and arresting him. Or kill?

Dennis Ayrin saw that the black fish hadn't moved for a long time, and immediately called out to the knights: "Something's wrong, prepare to retreat!"

Heiyu on the gate tower felt relieved when he saw that they were about to retreat, as long as no one died.

retreat?There was one man in Dennis Allyn's team who was not.

Ashara Dayne dismounted from his horse, and Werther's order was to escort Dennis Arryn to the Eagle's Nest City, so he couldn't go back halfway!

"Damn old man, don't open the door, right?" The people in the valley didn't open the door, there must be something wrong, since the other party didn't show face, Ashara scolded directly.

Hearing Ashara's shout, Dennis Ayrin and the others stopped at the start and turned their horses: "Ashara, hurry up, as long as they don't open the bloody door, there is no way to enter. If there are pursuers behind, we will They will all be trapped here! Go away."

Ashara clenched her fists and raised her arms, motioned to Dennis Ayrin, raised her head and shouted, "I'm asking you, old man!"

Heiyu was scolded to death by the old man, and his body trembled with anger. The soldiers beside him also started to be alert, and a large group of soldiers with bows and arrows rushed up to the gate.

"Who are you?" Heiyu was still sensible, and ordinary people wouldn't dare to shout like that at a time like this.

Two soldiers following Ashara took out rolled up flags and put them on the spears, and the two flags were raised.

Heiyu carefully identified the pattern of pink and white, a shooting star, and two long swords on the left and in the middle. The two swords were of different styles.

At this time, the soldier holding the flag shouted: "The gems of the Stone Steps Islands to the Earl, the sword of the dawn, Ashara Dayne!"

"is her?"

"The Dawn Sword of this generation is actually a woman?"

The soldiers on the gate tower whispered, some soldiers heard the news, some did not understand at all.

Heiyu is the younger brother of the Duke of Hejian, and he has much better information than these soldiers. I heard that this is a fierce man.

"Don't open the door, right? I'll open it myself!"

Ashara pulled out the Dawn and Dark Sisters on her back, and the upper body of the Lightning Cloak charged directly.

"lightning!"

"Magician!"

If you don't talk about martial arts so much, you start fighting before you even say a few words?Heiyu hurriedly commanded the soldiers: "Quick! Shoot the arrow!"

Ashara was very fast, jumping, sliding, twisting, easily dodging the arrows, swinging the double swords, and continuously flying more than a dozen ice cones from the tip of the swords to hit the city wall.

This kind of ice pick is a magic variant developed by Werther for Ashara and Robb. The tip of the ice pick is not sharp and very loose. After hitting the front end of the person, it will continue to condense and bind the person.It can also be fired towards the wall, the ice cone will temporarily freeze on the wall, and continuous shooting can form a staircase.

Heiyu drew out his long sword and pointed at Ashara who was running fast: "Fire the arrow!"

Seeing the people rushing to the bottom of the city wall, Heiyu and the soldiers felt like they were lying on the wall again, but what they could see was the figure stepping on the ice pick ladder and jumping up.

hum~~~

The long sword swung, and a bolt of lightning struck the wall. A few soldiers who were unlucky and had no time to retract their heads were electrocuted to death on the spot, and their bodies fell to the ground twitching with smoke.

"Draw out your long sword and prepare to meet the enemy!"

After a military order was issued, Heiyu himself just touched the hilt of the sword on his waist, and immediately issued a new order.

"Surrender! Open the door of blood!"

The dark sisters and Liming with lightning had already crossed the back of Heiyu's neck, as long as they cut their heads, they would fall to the ground.

The soldiers were also very scared. How would they fight this kind of magician who was charged with electricity, could climb up the tower at a high speed, and could sweep across the area with a single sword.

"She is the Sword of Dawn, she is a magician, she has climbed the city wall, she is not an enemy we can deal with, open the city gate!"

Black Fish surrendered neatly, and Dennis Ayrin had the Sword of Dawn in his team. No one wrote to him about this.

Seeing the iron fence of the Blood Gate rising slowly, Dennis Ayrin and the others recovered from their astonishment.I used to think that she had a dull personality, but after getting along for a long time, I realized that she actually talks a lot, and she jokes with her every day, and she still laughs like a fool.It wasn't until this time that a group of valley knights really saw the power of the contemporary Dawn Excalibur.

"Dawn Excalibur, Dennis and the others have already passed, let me go!"

Ashara looked at the bottom of the gatehouse, Dennis and others who had already passed through the Bloody Gate and waited for him, put away their magic, and swaggered down the stairs of the gatehouse.
