"I believe this news will spread to people's ears soon, after I escort you to the Gate of the Moon below the Eagle's Nest City." Why did Gao Yuan choose to reveal this news to himself at this time? Brynden

Sir, of course, knew very well, but he also expressed his concerns to Gao Yuan, "It's just that the nobles in the canyon may not believe this is true."

"Time will prove everything to them. Besides, they have no choice now. It doesn't matter whether they believe it or not." Gao Yuan, with a bright smile on his face, walked at the front of the team. "The huge East Territory and the canyon are in urgent need of a guardian now."

Or, since they are unwilling to accept the rule of Jaime Lannister, then there must be someone to manage and command the territory of the East and a quarter of the soldiers of the kingdom."

"It is impossible for King Robert to leave these to a six-year-old boy to manage. Now I am the Guardian of the East appointed by King Robert himself, so now they can only choose to believe me." Gao Yuan explained, "Besides, I

I have already made a promise to the nobles of the valley, and I will only temporarily manage the Eastern Territory on behalf of the heirs of the Arryn family, and they have no reason to stand up against me now."

"I think Lysa may be planning to rule in person until Lord Jon Arryn comes of age and becomes the true Duke of the Eyrie," Sir Brynden reminded.

"Weren't you still complaining to me earlier that Mrs. Lysa allowed those mountain clan bandits to wreak havoc in the canyon, saying that she failed to fulfill her responsibilities as a lord?" Gao Yuan turned to look at him, "I thought you had already

It represents the attitude of various nobles in the canyon."

"Lord Gao Yuan, that was a mistake in my words... How can I represent the attitude of all the nobles in the valley..." Under the gaze of Gao Yuan's golden eyes, Brin realized that his previous words were lacking.

Sir Den suddenly broke out in cold sweat, "That's just my personal idea."

"Sir Brynden, it is a good thing to have your own thoughts, but you do not necessarily have to speak out your thoughts." Gao Yuan warned, "I hope I won't hear you talking nonsense about my lord again. Today you are talking to me and

We will not argue with you in front of Ser Barristan. But if these words are heard by others one day, you may be killed."

Seeing Sir Brynden fall into silence, Gao Yuan asked again: "Tell me about Duke Robert's situation. Before I came to Arryn Valley, I had always heard that he was frail and sick. Duke Stark also kept asking me to take good care of him.

Take care of his little nephew."

Ser Brynden sighed, and his tone sounded worried: "As we all know, Lord Jon has been married three times, and his first two wives did not leave him any children. Even Lysa was born after several miscarriages.

Having killed the current Duke Robert, this must be the reason why Lord Jon continued to emphasize the 'toughness of caste' before his death."

"But the only heir left by Lord Jon is now also frail and sick. Some people once said that he was too weak to survive until the coming of age ceremony, and he would not be able to inherit his father's position." Ser Brynden said,

"Therefore, some people suggested that Lysa should remarry, and the sooner the better. People were dissatisfied with the Guardian of the East appointed by King Robert for them, so some people wanted to elect a qualified leader within the canyon."

"Of course, the heir to House Arryn is still Duke Robert, and this will not change." Ser Brynden said with a rather disdainful expression, "The Eyrie is already crowded with Lysa.

There are as many suitors as crows eating corpses on the battlefield."

"This is a good solution. It can not only solve the current problem of the lack of Eastern Guardian and the incompetence of the Duke of the Eagle's Nest City, but also help to relieve the upcoming new Eastern Guardian in advance." Gao Yuan was not worried about Sir Brynden.

I was surprised by the news from my mouth. After all, this part of the story was in the original work. The position of Warden of the East and Duke of the Eyrie is the most important dowry, which will definitely attract many suitors to Lysa.

.

"Has Lady Lysa agreed to remarry?"

"She agreed, but she requested that she must choose her husband herself this time." Brynden Tully said with a somewhat complicated mood, "But she has now refused. More than a dozen people, including Lord Nestor,

She is a suitor, I really don’t know if there is a man she can like in the Vale of Arryn.”

"Perhaps Mrs. Lysa has already made up her mind!" A strange smile appeared on Gao Yuan's face.

Sir Brynden frowned when he heard this, and then his expression became serious: "Lord Gao Yuan, what do you mean by this?"

Gao Yuan smiled and shook his head: "It doesn't mean anything. I just heard that Lady Lysa was no longer a virgin before she married Lord Jon. Before that, there was a young man who was childhood sweethearts with the two sisters of the Tully family.

Lord Hoster Tully was driven out of Riverrun."

"You mean Littlefinger Petyr Baelish...he is my brother's adopted son...and..." Ser Brynden lost his voice as he spoke.

Gao Yuan's intentional reminder reminded him that when he was still in Riverrun, the young Lysa Tully had mentioned to him intentionally or unintentionally that she had always admired her brother's adopted son when she came to talk to him.

Petyr Baelish.

At that time, Duke Horst had been busy with government affairs, and the mother of the two sisters was seriously ill. Duke Horst's children, who had no one to talk to, all liked to turn to his uncle to express their feelings. Whether it was Caitlin or Lysa,

Or Edmure... Oh, by the way, even his brother's adopted son Petyr Baelish liked to share the joys and sorrows of life with him, and he always listened patiently.

Recalling the strange atmosphere between the Tully sisters and in the city during that time, and then thinking about the fact that Petyr Baelish was driven out of Riverrun by Lord Hoster for no reason not long after, Ser Brynden suddenly felt a sense of sadness.

With great fear, he vaguely felt that there might be some ulterior secret hidden in it.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Now the plan of the noble group of Erin Valley seems to be seamless, but only Gao Yuan, who has a lot of plot insider knowledge, knows that if the original plot continues like this,

They will soon fall into the big hole they dug and give up to outsiders what they have fought so hard for.

What these people never expected was that Lysa had never thought about choosing an outstanding young talent from among the nobles of the Erin Valley to become her new husband.

In other words, she has already made her choice. After all, Petyr Baelish can be considered a member of the noble group in the valley in a strict sense. Although the family from which Petyr was born has no influence in the valley,

Influential and insignificant.

As the sun set over the Western Mountain, the slope under the horses' hooves began to slow down, and the road in front of Gao Yuan and others gradually became wider and straighter, with wild flowers and verdant grass appearing on both sides of the road. As they left the rugged road

After the mountain road reached the flat valley plain, everyone moved faster and faster.

It was getting dark now. If they still wanted to reach the Gate of the Moon under the Eyrie before dark, they would have to hurry up and hurry up. The sound of heavy horse hooves passed through the dense and lush green woods and the quiet and peaceful

A small village; passing by fruitful farm orchards and golden wheat fields, stepping on the shallows of the thin river reflecting the blood-red sunset and splashing colorful water.

Ser Brynden was at the front of the team holding a long pole. The two flags hanging on the pole were fluttering in the breeze. The top one was the crescent falcon representing the Arryn family, and the lower one was Ser Brynden.

The Blackfish symbol he designed for himself after leaving Riverrun.

The knight's horse and the shadow lynx were racing together on the road. If it weren't for the tall and burly Gao Yuan sitting on the back of the shadow lynx, pedestrians who saw this scene would have thought they were the cavalry of the Erin Valley, being chased by the shadow lynx. Farm carriage

, the merchants' trucks and the knights of the small noble families all avoided and gave way, allowing them to pass smoothly.

Even in such a hurry, when Gao Yuan and others arrived at the gate of the sturdy castle located at the foot of Giant's Spear Mountain, it was already dark. At this time, the crenellated walls of the castle called Gate of the Moon were already brightly lit.

, a crescent moon is reflected in the moat in front of the city gate. The subway gate at the city gate has long been lowered, and the suspension bridge has been raised high.

Seeing that the lord of the Gates of the Moon, Viscount Nestor Royce, had closed the door to welcome guests, Sir Brynden, who led them to the Gates of the Moon, was not in a hurry and ordered the Blood Gate cavalry following him to greet the people in the tower.

Guards. As the guards in the tower responded to the call of the Blood Gate Cavalry, the suspension bridge in front of the Gate of the Moon slowly lowered. Then they heard the sound of the winch turning and the iron chain sliding, and the heavy iron gate also

Then it rises.

"Lord Gao Yuan, this is the Gates of the Moon." Sir Brynden rode a war horse in front of everyone, leading Gao Yuan and the others into the castle. "This is Lord Nestor's family castle. When we just came from the bloody

When we set off from the Gate, the people from the Blood Gate had already notified the Gates of the Moon via raven. Lord Nestor must have been aware of our arrival and should be waiting for us in the castle at this moment."

Gao Yuan raised his head and looked at the mountain called the Giant's Spear. The towering peaks reached into the clouds. At first, he only saw the rugged rocks and trees; the high mountains shrouded in night and mist; and the star-dappled night sky hanging in the sky.

A new moon.

But then Gao Yuan noticed that the mottled starlight was not actually the stars, but the flickering firelight on the towering mountain. It turned out that there was a huge castle standing on the towering mountain. It must have been that

This castle is the Eagle's Nest City of the Arryn family. This Eagle's Nest City, which has stood for thousands of years, is embedded in the straight cliffs, like bamboo shoots sprouting from the top of the mountains.

"Eyrie City..." Sir Barristan's murmur came from behind Gao Yuan. It was obvious that he also discovered that those orange-red spots hanging in the night sky were not actually starlight.

"This is shocking, isn't it?" Ser Brynden turned his head, "The first time I saw it was the same as you, Ser Barristan!"

"It's still night, and when you find a clear day to look up at the castle from the foot of the mountain, it will be truly shocking." Sir Brynden seemed to be a little gloating, "When you step up the stairs and officially enter the Eagle's Nest City

, you will realize that what you see at the foot of the mountain is nothing."

Ser Barristan asked: "Are we going to ascend that castle at night?"

"No, we will spend the night here tonight and go up the mountain tomorrow." Ser Brynden told him, "It is dark now. Although there are stone steps on the way to the Eagle's Nest, when you set foot on that

After the stone steps leading up to the castle, you will find that even with a torch you cannot see the path under your feet."

"No, we won't go up tomorrow!" Gao Yuan said, "Ser Barristan, when you read the king's appointment to young Duke Robert and Lady Lysa, I require that most of the nobles in the Arryn Valley be present.

.”

"Lord Gao Yuan... I'm afraid it will take a long time to gather all the nobles of the Erin Valley together." Sir Brynden was a little confused about what Gao Yuan wanted to do. "Besides, I'm afraid not everyone will."

I am willing to come, after all, the heads of the family are usually very busy."

Gao Yuan chuckled: "Isn't the Eagle's Nest City now crowded with Lady Lysa's suitors? This has saved us a lot of effort. They have time to come to the Eagle's Nest City to express their love to Lady Lysa, but they don't have time.

Come to participate in the succession ceremony of my trusted guardian of the Eastern Territory?"

"You can also tell them that I have enough time and patience to wait for their arrival in the Eagle's Nest City, either as guests attending my succession ceremony; or as vassals under me who come to report their duties to me."

Sir Brynden led Gao Yuan and others into the atrium of the Gates of the Moon with great concern. Baron Nestor Royce, who had served as the steward of the Arryn Valley for fourteen years and the guardian of the Gates of the Moon, was already there.

They had been waiting here for a long time, and they were surrounded by fully armed knights.

Baron Nestor looks like a strong man, and his clumsy movements can easily make people think of him as a man with well-developed limbs and a simple mind at first glance. But if anyone really thinks of him as a

Silly man, you are totally wrong. Baron Nestor is the cousin of Bronze Yohn. As a collateral branch of the Royce family, he will definitely not be able to reach his current position.

Simple.

Baron Nestor slowly walked up to Gao Yuan, bowed to him and said: "Lord Gao Yuan, welcome to the Gate of the Moon."

Gao Yuan gently tapped the shadow lynx's head, and the shadow lynx slowly knelt on the ground, lowered its head, and walked slowly from Gao Yuan's crotch.

"Sir Nestor! I'm so glad to see you bringing so many soldiers from the Gate of the Moon to greet me." Gao Yuan nodded towards him with an indifferent expression but politely, "I was at the Great Wall a long time ago.

I met your nephew, Ser Waymar Royce, a brave man of the Night's Watch."
