The cold wind howled in the dark corridor. As the truth behind this series of events and the real mastermind Littlefinger gradually surfaced, the canyon lords suddenly felt shuddering all over.

In fact, this is just the tip of the iceberg of Littlefinger's entire plan. He has been planning all of this since he was driven away from Riverrun by Lord Hoster Tully. Just disturbing the seemingly peaceful situation in the Seven Kingdoms is enough.

Despite Littlefinger's growing ambition, what he really wants is the Iron Throne under King Robert's butt.

Petyr Baelish was born into a small and uninfluential family in the Five Finger Peninsula of the Vale. Most of his life's efforts were devoted to improving his humble class. He was extremely thirsty for power and status, and his greatest expectation was himself.

Can he become a big man respected by thousands of people?

Who is the most admired among the Seven Kingdoms? That is naturally the King of the Seven Kingdoms who sits on the Iron Throne. Some people are destined to stand at the pinnacle of power; some people rely on the power of their families and the support of their allies to reach the top.

throne.

These are not what Littlefinger can hope for. He is neither born to stand at the pinnacle of power nor does he come from a famous family. Compared with those big shots who can reach out and get what they want, all he can rely on is

own intelligence.

In order to gain power over the Seven Kingdoms, he would do whatever it takes, even plotting to poison Duke Jon Arryn, who had an acquaintance with him. He even wanted to use Lord Jon's widow's love for him to seize everything the Arryn family had in the valley.

power,

In addition, he also hoped to provoke disputes between the Lion family and the Wolf family by creating conflicts, and later single-handedly caused the tragedy of the Stark family. He instigated Prince Joffrey to behead Caitlin's husband Eddard.

Stark; causing Arya Stark, who was only nine years old, to wander in the wilderness; his most beloved Lady Catelyn and his son Robb died at the bloody wedding in the Twins because they broke their oaths...

After that, he even wanted to take advantage of Sansa Stark's trust and dependence on him to control the entire North, so that what he did to the Arryn family would happen again to the Bolton family in the North. Stupid and pitiful

Sansa Stark was pushed into the clutches of Ramsay Bolton and tortured.

"Since Lady Lysa is no longer trustworthy, how should we deal with her now and imprison her?" Little Earl Hunter asked, "After all, she now knows that Lord Gao Yuan is about to go to King's Landing to investigate Jon.

She will definitely try her best to tell Littlefinger the news about the cause of his death."

"In this way, you are likely to be in danger in King's Landing, if Littlefinger thinks you pose a threat to him. Since Petyr Baelish can kill Lord Jon in King's Landing without anyone noticing,

, then he will definitely use all kinds of methods to deal with you."

"Hmph! How can a man be afraid of this little danger? His little finger is not a man-eating demon. He is at most a clown who plays tricks. The more he is afraid that Lord Gao Yuan will go to King's Landing to deal with him.

Conduct an investigation, the more this shows that he has something evil in his mind!" Bronze Yohn glanced at little Earl Hunter with disdain, and snorted coldly, "Lord Gao Yuan, please rest assured that your safety during your stay in King's Landing will be taken care of by our Royce family.

Come to protect you, I will send my two sons to follow you to protect your safety at all times."

Little Earl Hunter also snorted coldly: "Mr. Earl Yohn, don't forget that it's easy to hide from open guns, but hard to guard against hidden arrows! In this world, you can only be a thief for a thousand days, but there is no reason to guard against a thief for a thousand days."

"Thank you very much for your reminder, Earl Jerwood. But I still think Earl Yorn is right. Littlefinger is not a wolf. No matter what kind of conspiracy he has prepared, he will wait for me with absolute strength."

I am vulnerable in front of me, and you saw my strength tonight."

Gao Yuan has never regarded Little Finger as a threat to himself. In fact, he has no way to pose a threat to himself, because Gao Yuan has absolute strength and can directly overturn the chessboard that the opponent relies on for survival. The reason why he has not chosen to solve it directly now

The reason for dropping the little finger is because the other party still has some use value for Gao Yuan at the moment, and Gao Yuan needs to use the little finger to achieve his purpose of disrupting the Seven Kingdoms.

Chaos is the ladder of ascent, and Gao Yuan extremely agrees with this tenet pursued by Littlefinger. Ideological agreement is ultimately ideological. This does not mean that Gao Yuan likes Petyr Baelish. But not yet.

It's just time to kill him. Only when Littlefinger's use value is completely squeezed out will his fate be finally concluded.

"As for Lady Lysa... after all, she is still the widow of Lord Jon. I once swore not to harm her and little Duke Robert. I have no intention of breaking my oath." Gao Yuan raised his hand and held it down to express himself.

Little Earl Hunter thought, "Besides, everything we are discussing now is just speculation without evidence. Only when the truth comes out can we put the guy who murdered Lord Jon on trial."

"But that doesn't mean I will tolerate her sabotaging our investigation in King's Landing."

"She cares very much about her and Lord Jon's child. Since she is going to Runestone City with Little Duke Robert, then Lord Jon, please entertain her well in your castle!" Gao Yuan said easily, "Don't let her

No chance of contact with anyone else, and no opportunity for her to write to Littlefinger in King's Landing."

"Is this the intention to put Lysa Tully under house arrest in Runestone City?" Countess Waynwood asked with a frown, "If this spreads out, I'm afraid it will disgrace Lord Yorn's reputation and leave behind his own monarch.

The orphans and widows are under house arrest in their own castle.”

Earl Yohn laughed: "Mrs. Anya, do you think I am the kind of pedantic person who only cares about his own feathers?"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "As long as everyone here does not arrange things behind my back, no matter how those people outside talk about me, neither I nor the Royce family of Runestone City will be able to do anything about me."

Will care! Because all of us know that we are seeking justice for Lord Jon who died innocently."

"Count Yohn is so righteous!!!" all the canyon lords praised in unison.

"There is another thing that deserves our vigilance!" After Bronze Yoen accepted the praise from his colleagues, Gao Yuan suddenly warned seriously, "That is the dispute between the Wolf family and the Lion family.

There is a war breaking out in the country, and we need to start preparing for a rainy day now."

Gao Yuan began to tell the canyon lords about the conflict between the Lannister and Stark families on the banks of the Trident River due to a fight between children.

Although this conflict was initially just a misunderstanding caused by a fight between two children, Queen Cersei's subsequent pursuit of the Stark girls led to Eddard Stark's "Jedi Strike Back"

". This farce, which was supposed to end hastily and trivial matters become nothing, has now become more and more intense.

"Judging from Queen Cersei's arrogant and retaliatory character, I'm afraid she won't let it go." Bronze Jon used to go to King's Landing to participate in tournaments, and every time he went to King's Landing, he always went to the Hand's Tower.

I visited Lord Jon and heard more or less about the Queen's deeds.

"Now in King's Landing, the Lion family and the Wolf family may have been at odds with each other for a long time." Countess Waynwood said worriedly.

"It's not just a matter of a day or two that the Lion family and the Wolf family are on the same level. Ed Stark has never looked down on the Lion family." Earl Holden Redford recalled, "I still remember that year.

After the Usurper's War ended, why did Lord Eddard Stark choose to leave King's Landing and return to Winterfell in the north?"

"How could I forget such a wonderful drama!" Bronze Jon said with a smile, "At that time, Lord Eddard and King Robert had a fierce quarrel in the throne room filled with dragon bones."

"They were having a heated argument, and both sides had different opinions. Lord Eddard believed that King Robert should let Jaime Lannis, who betrayed his oath and killed his king, wear black clothes and join the Night's Watch." Bronze Covenant

En recalled, "King Robert tried his best to pardon Jaime and let him continue to stay with him and hold the position of Kingsguard."

"Although Lord Eddard argued hard, he ultimately failed to change the king's mind!" Earl Horton added, "So, Lord Eddard dropped the words "Kingslayer" in front of James and King Robert.

Then he left King's Landing, and he has never set foot there again since then, even after the Greyjoy Rebellion ended."

"Speaking of which, the reason why the once glorious position of the Kingsguard has become what it is now is probably related to the fact that Jaime Lannister, the regicide, still remains in it." Bronze Yohn sighed,

"A regicide who once killed the monarch he was loyal to, and the Kingsguard who broke his oath can continue to serve the next king by renewing his oath. This is simply ridiculous!"

"How many of the guys who are still in that position today are truly honorable?" Ser Simon Temperton sneered, "Except for Ser Barristan Selmy, this is the only one who deserves it.

A person with the title of Knight of the Kingsguard."

"Ahem... Sir Barristan is indeed a knight worthy of respect, and he is also very dedicated." Gao Yuan deliberately coughed twice to attract the attention of the lords, "But the focus of our discussion now is not the past grudges.

Entanglement, now we are discussing the war that is coming in the future."

"The dispute between the Lion family and the Wolf family will continue to be staged in King's Landing. According to the current situation, there is no possibility of reconciliation in this dispute, even if King Robert ends it personally." Gao Yuan concluded, "

We have to make plans for this in advance. I personally stand with Eddard Stark, and I believe that all the lords here will not support the Lannister family in Casterly Rock."

"The old lion Tywin is a ruthless person. As early as when he served as the Hand of the King of Mad King Aerys, he showed a strong desire for control and calculation skills. In this dispute between the lion and the wolf, Lannis

The final victory of the Te family will be of no benefit to me or my colleagues in the valley." Bronze Yohn stated his position to Gao Yuan.

"I still believe more in Lord Eddard Stark, who grew up in the Arryn Valley. He is a man who is strict with himself and abides by honor. Like you, Lord Gao Yuan, I stand with the Stark family." Huo

Lord Don Redford also stood up to support Eddard Stark.

The two most respected lords in the valley have now expressed their stance, and other canyon lords who were still hesitant have also followed suit and expressed support.

"Since war is unavoidable, we must prepare in advance for this upcoming war!" Countess Waywood's tone was very firm, "Lord Gao Yuan, what do you want us to do?"

All the canyon lords were eagerly waiting for Gao Yuan's speech, and Gao Yuan nodded happily: "It is now the autumn harvest season. I believe that the bachelors in various castles have also received notices from the school. The long summer is coming to an end, and the cold weather is coming.

Winter is coming."

"I will inform all the lords at the lords' meeting tomorrow to harvest this season's grain as soon as possible, and then sow all the varieties with short maturation time and large yields." Gao Yuan began to announce his territory management arrangements in advance.

"In addition, we have to start purchasing a large amount of grain outside the valley, but we don't have to act too hastily, lest others discover our true intentions and let the soldiers disguise themselves as merchants to purchase." Gao Yuan warned,

"It's best to purchase it from Highgarden and the Western Territory. It would be best to be able to purchase all the food harvested in the Western Territory this season."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "In addition, don't touch the food in the Riverlands! Because that area is likely to become the main battlefield in the future, and we have to leave it for the people and lords of the Riverlands.

A way to survive.”

Countess Waywood frowned and raised the question: "However, the passage from the Arryn Valley to the Riverlands is not safe at present. Bandits from the Alpine clans often plunder there."

"This is exactly what I am going to say next. I ask all the lords here to send a hundred soldiers from each family to garrison at the Blood Gate to protect the caravans entering and leaving the valley." Gao Yuan's request was not just that, "In addition to all of you,

For other small families, each family needs to send twenty soldiers under the command of Sir Brynden Tully, the knight of the Blood Gate. These soldiers will be led by him into the Bright Moon Mountains to wipe out the mountain clans that can be seen everywhere."

"The Blood Gate troops responsible for escorting the caravan and those troops that wiped out the Alpine clans rotate once a month and perform different tasks respectively." Gao Yuan assured, "This is just a stop-gap measure. After I come back from Junlin City,

, I will find a way to completely solve the problem of the Gaoshan clan."

"A large number of convoys carrying food entered the canyon from the Blood Gate. This will probably attract the attention of many people." Countess Wenwood thought that it might be inappropriate to transport food into the Erin Valley in such a concentrated manner. "Such a large-scale operation is very dangerous."

It is difficult to escape the attention of others, especially the nobles and kings of the Riverlands, because our convoy must pass through the Riverlands when entering the Arryn Valley."

"Mrs. Anya, your worry is very reasonable, but it is not difficult to solve!" Gao Yuan put forward his own opinion, "We can disguise those convoys. For example, we can buy some empty wine barrels for the convoys and transport the necessary items into the convoy.
