Chapter 254 Restarting
Before he finished speaking, the little devil felt dozens of eyes, all focused on him. He looked provocatively at Mrs. Stark in front of him, and he knew that his plan had been successful.
The news that he was abducted by Mrs. Stark on the King's Road will probably soon reach his father's ears. Unless they kill all the insiders in the inn now, they will no longer be able to stop it.
All this happened.
Don't look at the fact that no one here responded to his request, but that's just because there were so many people in the Stark house that they took the photo, and they didn't dare to stand up and respond now.
Almost all of the people with knives and swords on the scene were on the side of the Stark family. Those who were only interested in profit would not be stupid enough to stand up at this time.
Wait until the woman takes them out of this inn. I'm afraid they will rush to find their father, or James who is near King's Landing and tell them the news that he was taken away by the Stark family.
So that you can receive the reward you promised.
Sir Rodrik looked at his wife worriedly. He couldn't control every mouth here. After all, they couldn't really kill all the insiders here.
Seeing that the leak of this incident is almost inevitable, the coach of Winterfell may not have any clever ideas to deal with the current situation. So the old coach can only helplessly plead to everyone present: "What just happened
, please don’t publicize it everywhere.”
When Tyrion heard this, he managed to keep himself from laughing out loud. Don't make it public? The old fool who was frozen to death by the North, unless they arrest all the people in the inn, or kill them
All of them will be executed on the spot, otherwise as soon as they step out of the door of this inn, the news will spread to every corner of the Seven Kingdoms.
Not to mention other people, the mercenary whom Tyrion knew had his gold coins in his pocket would definitely rush to Casterly Rock to report the news to his father. Even if he was not the first person to rush to Casterly Rock, the others
I will also rush to get there.
Yoren the Rogue Crow is a big-mouthed guy, and he will definitely bring this news to King's Landing on his way there.
The son of the Frey family will definitely report this news to Walder Frey when he goes back. The old immortal guy was wavering during the Reaver War. What will he do next after receiving this news?
, I’m afraid only the gods in the sky know this.
Although Baron Walder Frey is a vassal loyal to Riverrun, his ability to survive to his current age is due to his out-of-touch way of dealing with the world.
Before the situation is determined, he will not place a bet easily on either side. Although always standing on the side of the winner will not bring him huge benefits, at least it will not bring the danger of destruction to himself and his family.
What Tyrion is sure of is that after receiving this news, he will immediately send a raven to deliver it to King's Landing. Perhaps he can do more than that. He may very well pass by the twins with Mrs. Stark and her party.
When they were in Hecheng, they quietly reported their whereabouts to their father in private.
"We are leaving immediately. We need energetic horses and necessary food for the road." Lady Catelyn also knew that it was not too late and immediately announced that she was ready to set off.
She turned to look at the people who helped her take down the little devil: "My lords, the Stark family will always be grateful for your help today. If you are willing to help us escort the prisoners to Winterfell, I can assure you that,
The Stark family will reward you generously."
Just as Mrs. Caitlin and her entourage were about to leave, Gao Yuan pulled the other party to a deserted corner: "Mrs. Caitlin, are you really planning to return to Winterfell like this? The road to the North is far and dangerous.
And you only have a few people to protect you, so it may be difficult to ensure that you can reach your husband's castle safely."
"Besides, after Lord Tywin learns that you kidnapped the little devil, he will never let it go. The old lion will probably send people to chase and intercept you on the way back to Winterfell."
Staring at the worried face, a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of Lady Caitlin's lips. She and Ed had indeed seen the right person. The Sir Gao Yuan in front of them was indeed a person worthy of entrusting them with important tasks.
"Yes... I also have the same worries as you, Mr. Gao Yuan." Mrs. Caitlin lowered her head and said pretending to be worried, but she smiled very happily on her face, so happy that her eyes were crescent like crescent moons.
, "Since Lord Gao Yuan has already thought of this section, if you pull me aside now, you must have thought of a better place than Winterfell, right?"
Due to the height difference between the two, Gao Yuan could not see the smile on Lady Catelyn's face. With a solemn expression, he was still thinking seriously about how to guide Lady Catelyn and her party to the Erin Valley, unaware of what was going on in Catelyn's mind right now.
In fact, he had already planned it, and now he was just teasing him.
"If you don't mind, madam, you can take the little devil to my territory Erin Valley to stay for a while." Gao Yuan suggested to Caitlin, "By then, even if Duke Tywin really sends pursuers on the King's Road,
Go up, chase and intercept Madam and her party along the way, but they will return in vain because you have already taken the little devil with you to the Arryn Valley."
"After the Prime Minister, who is now in King's Landing, has completely taken control of the situation there and is free to start dealing with the Lannister family, the mastermind behind all this." Gao Yuan paused for a moment and continued, "At that time, we will be in chaos.
The Lannister family no longer has time to take care of you, the lady in the Vale of Arryn, and the little devil you took away."
"As we all know, Lord Tywin Lannister has never paid much attention to his dwarf son who was born with a deformity." Gao Yuan tried to tell Caitlin that the little devil did not have a high status in the old lion's heart. "The reason why he went to war
The reason why he dispatched troops to chase and intercept you is not because he really cares about the little devil's life, but because the old lion absolutely cannot tolerate the damage to the family's honor."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "In fact, what the old lion values the most is the twin siblings in King's Landing today. To be precise, what he values is James the Kingslayer.
·Lannister, the Kingslayer is now the only heir to the Lannister family." Having said this, Gao Yuan couldn't help but sneer, "The heir of the family he values most is facing a crisis, so how can the old lion have the energy to take care of it?
What about the life and death of the dwarf who is not loved very much and even hated?"
"Ever since I received the letter sent by Lord Eddard from King's Landing, I have been preparing for this. I have already arranged everything in the Arryn Valley." Gao Yuan said, "As long as you bring the little devil with you
When you arrive at the Blood Gate, someone from Arryn Valley will naturally come out to greet you. You can stay in the towering Eyrie to wait for Lady Lysa's return, or you can choose to live in the Gates of the Moon at the foot of the mountain."
"However, the Eagle's Nest with its high mountains and dangerous roads does not seem to be suitable for ladies to climb." Gao Yuan said with a smile, "While you are in the valley, Baron Nestor Royce of the Gates of the Moon will guarantee your safety in the Erin Valley.
It’s safe. If you have any needs, just tell him and he will try his best to meet your requirements.”
"Don't underestimate a woman's ability, Lord Gao Yuan!" Caitlin smiled and reminded him, "Lysa, who has been weak since childhood, can take little Robert to the Eagle's Nest, and I don't think I can either.
question!"
"I have never underestimated a lady's ability, Madam!" Gao Yuan said with a bitter smile, "Just to climb onto the Eagle's Nest City, even a strong man has to be careful... In short, Madam will be able to
Got it, I’m not being alarmist.”
"Well, since Lord Gao Yuan has made such thorough arrangements, and your ideas are indeed in line with my wishes, I have no choice but to obey your orders respectfully." Mrs. Caitlin pretended to be reluctant and agreed.
"Let the Lannister bastards who tried to intercept us on our way back north stay in the Neck and enjoy those vicious mosquito bites. They may never even dream of us being gone.
The King's Road goes to the Vale of Arryn."
"I will ask Count Yohn to draw ten valley cavalry from the team to follow you and protect your safety along the way." Gao Yuan nodded happily, "There are often bandits from the Alpine clan in the canyon leading to the Blood Gate.
, although I have now instructed the troops of the Blood Gate to strengthen patrols and alerts there, there are still occasional caravans that are harassed by them."
"With the valley cavalry who are familiar with the local terrain leading the way and protecting you, I believe Mrs. Caitlin that your safety will be well protected."
"Although it's a bit strange to say it, I have to thank you again, Lord Gao Yuan!" Lady Caitlin thanked him again, and then led Sir Rodrik and his party outside the inn.
Mrs. Caitlin and the others had already spent too much time in this inn. Even in the heavy rain, they had to set off and leave at this moment. Following Gao Yuan's instructions, Bronze Yohn transferred ten people from the original team.
The Vale Riders rushed with them to the Vale of Arryn.
Tyrion was very calm when he was put on the saddle, even though he was now tied into a big rice dumpling with finger-thick hemp rope; even though Sir Rodrik put a black hood on his head, this
It is to prevent the little devil from distinguishing the direction of the team's travel.
After all, the reason why Tyrion is so calm and composed is because he is confident that the people in the inn will tell his father the news that Mrs. Stark kidnapped him and took him to Winterfell.
He even dared to bet that Catelyn and the others would never be able to escort him back to Winterfell. In less than a day, the Lannister family would be chasing them on horseback along the King's Road.
Is this so strange? Although this is a world with a medieval background, there are doves and ravens that can send messages.
His father, Lord Tywin, has been secretly plotting in the Riverlands for many years, and there are many Lannister families who have privately bribed and gained allegiance. Although the old lion never mentioned it to Tyrion, the influence of his family in the Riverlands was
However, he was certain that his father would often receive information from Riverrun in Casterly Rock related to Duke Hoster who was ill in bed.
By then, there will inevitably be lords from the Riverlands involved in the kidnapping incident along the way, taking the opportunity to please his father. Tyrion will not know which lord will help specifically.
Or it could be the Frey family, which is like a wallflower, or other nobles who are quite dissatisfied with the rule of the Tully family.
Just when Tyrion was feeling complacent about his careful planning, he didn't know that the end point of their trip was not Winterfell in the north as Lady Catelyn openly claimed, but the Arryn Valley in the east. He didn't know when that would happen.
When Lady Catelyn reveals the truth to him, the expression on his deformed and distorted face will be wonderful.
——————————————
After Lady Caitlin left the Xianglong Inn, Gao Yuan and his party from the Arryn Valley stayed there for one more night.
When they got up from the bed in the inn the next day, they were pleasantly surprised to find that the Hejian Land, which had been raining heavily for a long time, had unexpectedly cleared up. So Gao Yuan and the others took advantage of the harmonious sunshine of early autumn and the new mud after the rain.
The fragrance started again.
When they finally arrived at the gate tower of King's Landing City, it was already nine days since they set off from the Xianglong Inn.
A team of more than a hundred people passed through the King's Road in a mighty manner. The cavalry team headed by Gao Yuan coming out of the Arryn Valley attracted the attention of people on both sides of the road. Many people were interested in the twilight pole at the front of the team.
Star Golden Dragon Banner is full of curiosity.
The knights, attendants and nobles here have never seen this flag before. Everyone is secretly inquiring and guessing where this lord suddenly appeared from.
Until someone recognized Bronze Yohn who was following Gao Yuan, Bronze Yohn and the Royce family, who had participated in tournaments many times, were well-known in the aristocratic circle in King's Landing.
Many people have seen Count Yohn's grace in the tournament. Although he has never won the championship, after all, Bronze Yohn is also a powerful competitor. It is not surprising that people can remember him.
What really surprised everyone was that usually when the knights of Arryn Vale came to participate in the tournament, they were always led by Lord Bronze Yohn, but this time they were led by an unknown new noble lord.
He looked very young, but Lord Bronze Yohn followed him into King's Landing.
If there is not a monarch-minister relationship between the two, then Lord Bronze Yohn should at least walk side by side with this newly promoted master, instead of just cheering in front of him and supporting him behind him.
Everyone was talking about this. Could it be that the Royce family in Runestone City has now changed its family? Or is it that the valley ruled by the former Prime Minister Jon Arryn has now changed to a new owner?
As we all know, the Royce family of Runestone City is the vassal of the Arryn family of the Eyrie City, the ruler of the valley. But now that Yohn Royce is following a completely unfamiliar noble, it is inevitable that everyone will be concerned about it.
