It is precisely for this reason that Gao Xianda feels that Ed will soon owe him a favor. He hopes to get the friendship of the new prime minister.

Of course, Ed was really concerned about this matter, but he believed that this matter should be a matter of honor and should not be decided by an activity similar to a bet.

Gao Xianda didn't know how to explain to this elm head, and some things were not necessarily solved by honor.

Rega's battle back then was very honorable, but he is now dead.

Similarly, Robert decided on the matter of guarding the East, and neither the Prime Minister nor the Minister of Justice had the power to change it.

The only thing Gao Xianda could do was to prevent the Lannister family from succeeding. However, he could not explain this to Ed in front of James Lannister.

Gao Xianda could only tell him that he would go back to avenge Joffrey regardless of whether there was this bet or not. But if Gao Xianda failed, the position of guardian of the East Realm would fall on James.

"Do you need my support?" Ed seemed to understand Gao Xianda's words, "I can send you twenty people, all of whom are first-class and good boys. They may not be knights, but they are good players in both riding horses and fighting."

To become a knight, you must apply holy oil in the church of the Seven Gods and pray for a night. However, most people in the background believe in the old God, that is, the local traditional belief in the background.

So most people in the North are not willing to become knights. But this does not mean that they have no honor or are not good at fighting.

In fact, no one places attaches more importance to honor than the people in the North. The simple people in the North are even not good at intrigue. The people of the Stark family can rule the North for hundreds of years with just one Stark's surname.

In the war between Lao** and Yi, the people from the north also proved with their blood that their combat power was not weaker than those knights in the south who were loyal to the Seven Gods.

"Thank you very much." Gao Xianda said. Although Stark insisted on the honor, he finally did the right thing.

Soon under Ed's instructions, his captain Jori Keso, led twenty good boys from the north, to Gao Xianda.

"They are all the best fighters in Winterfell," said Jorie, but he undoubtedly believed that he was the best.

"You come and lead them." Ed nodded, "All obey Lord Renley's instructions, be sure to find the murderer and avenge His Highness Joffrey!"

"Yes!" Jori replied loudly.

During this period, the twenty knights that Robert gave to Gao Xianda also came, which were the eighteen escort knights under Balistan who came with Gao Xianda.

During this trip, the Lannister family's warriors accounted for the vast majority, and Robert's men could use them directly. However, the former captain of the Imperial Guard, Balistan, was designated as the new heir, and Toman's personal guard, Messerra, also wanted to stay with Toman.

In addition, the two Imperial Guards other than James also had to follow at the same time. Cersei sent fifty Lannister warriors to protect them.

The inside and the outside are three layers, which are no longer protection, but become a package. You can't even think of seeing Thorman inside from the outside.

Even so, Cersei was not satisfied. He was afraid that Toman and Messella would be hurt at all. She didn't even sleep all night, either protecting Toman or praying next to Joffrey's body.

She lost weight all over and her face was a little discolored. But like this, she had a more tempting smell of a degenerate woman.

Robert drew two more people from his personal guards and made up for Gao Xianda's 20 people. In addition, Sir Elin Pine also came with him.

Although these twenty people are not very effective in combat, they are knights and guards of the king. Therefore, those who do not have the title of knight and are expelled from the Lannister family are not qualified to command them.

Sir Elyn Pine is qualified, but he has no tongue and cannot give orders.

Guimei is a woman, so Gao Xianda had no choice but to let Dong Xie go to command them.

Dong Xie led twenty knights, and Jorie led twenty northern riders, Gao Xianda, Guimei, Hunter, Yilin Pine, these are forty-six people.

Gao Xianda recruited the free riders and hired knights who came spontaneously outside the camp, recruiting more than 30 people, barely gathering eighty people, and setting out in the direction where Dong Xie left the curse.

James Lannister's warriors belonging to the Lannister family still had more than a hundred people after deducting Cersei's guards.

This is also the reason why James is capable of sending troops to revenge. If James was the only one, even if he was full of anger, he would not dare to pursue the murderer alone.

James's team followed Gao Xianda's team and walked up the trident and upwards to the place where the incident happened.

"Is it here?" James jumped off the horse and checked the surrounding environment.

Although his relationship with Gao Xianda was not good, it was related to avenging his son, so he had to humbly ask Gao Xianda, the only witness.

"It happened here." Gao Xianda nodded, "Joffrey was in your position at that time, and the murderer was in front of the left..."

In fact, Gao Xianda also wanted to see how powerful James was. The God-slaying people destroyed a team of squads, but there were still five teams.

According to the previous combat power calculation, they were all responsible for one or ten against ordinary knights. If the opponent's troops were all concentrated together, Gao Xianda might not be able to capture them just by relying on these people under his command.

So it's no big deal to give James some information first and let him take the lead.

So Gao Xianda patiently explained the story to James, and handed James the half cloak that Dong Xie snatched.

James is also a little uncomfortable with Gao Xianda's cooperation.

"You told me everything, aren't you afraid that I will steal your guardian position in the East?" James asked.

"When will the guardian of the East Realm be mine?" Gao Xianda said, "I have never experienced wars at all. I just became an important minister of the court because I was the king's younger brother. I know that in your eyes, I am just a little brat who grew up in a greenhouse."

This was the first time James heard Duke Lanley be so modest, and he couldn't help but be stunned.

Gao Xianda said, "I don't want to be a high-ranking official. If it weren't for the fact that Junlin was much more fun than Fengxi Castle, I wouldn't bother to be a legal minister. I just hope that my brother's whole family is so ordinary that I can enjoy it with peace of mind. If someone dares to touch a hair of their hair, I will make them pay the price! Now that my nephew has been killed, I must avenge him!"
