Chapter 270 Approval(1/2)

Ed Stark covered his head in pain: "It's time, Duke Gao Yuan, please don't come out to cause trouble again."

"Prime Minister, I was just talking." Gao Yuan explained helplessly, "I just regretted not participating in the team competition. If I learned that the king would participate in the team competition when I signed up, then I

Will definitely be the first to sign up.”

"Duke Gaoyuan, you have missed an opportunity to beat me up." Robert Kingdom really did not expect this relationship to exist. "It is really a pity not to be able to compete with you, Duke Gaoyuan, in that competition field... Sigh.

, anyone can do it, even if Duke Gao Yuan does not participate... As long as they have the ability to defeat me, the last one standing anyway..."

"You will definitely be the one standing in the competition field in the end." Ed took over the words smoothly, "No one in the Seven Kingdoms dares to take the risk of hurting you and attack you."

Eddard knew very well how to persuade Robert. If he just emphasized the dangers of jousting with him, it would only irritate Robert more. And if this would affect his self-esteem, he would rather withdraw from the group jousting on his own initiative.

He will never win a joust just because someone is flirting with him on the jousting field.

As Ed expected, King Robert was really angry at his words. He suddenly stood up with a red face and stared at himself: "You mean those useless cowards will deliberately attack in group competitions?"

Missed?"

"It's conceivable." Ed said helplessly, and Gao Yuan on the side also nodded in agreement.

After receiving affirmative answers from the two of them, Lao was so angry that he could not speak for a while. He walked from one side of the tent to the other, then turned around and walked back again, repeatedly touching the two of them.

He was pacing in front of him, his face full of gloom and anger.

Then he grabbed the breastplate from the ground and angrily threw it towards the washstand next to Gao Yuan. The exquisite washstand was smashed to pieces by the breastplate, but Gao Yuan, who was close at hand, was completely unmoved.

King Robert looked up at Gao Yuan and asked coldly: "What if I order them to do their best on the tourney?"

"Which is more serious, being scolded by Your Majesty or losing one's own life, I think those who participated in the competition will know clearly." Gao Yuan replied in a calm tone.

King Robert was speechless for a moment. He picked up his horn cup again, filled it with beer from the barrel in the corner, and then abruptly gave it to Ed and Gao Yuan: "Drink!"

"I'm...not thirsty." Ed refused Robert's kindness, but Gao Yuan frowned at the dark and thick beer in his hand. He really didn't want to drink something that looked like horse urine.

"Drink quickly! This is the king's order."

So Ed reluctantly took the horn cup and drank it. The strong smell of the dark beer made him frown, and it was so irritating that he almost shed tears.

Then Robert looked at Gao Yuan again: "Hurry up and drink too!"

But Gao Yuan shook his head and refused his request: "Your Majesty, I have a competition to participate in later."

Robert sat down again holding the wine glass helplessly: "Go, Ed Stark and Gao Yuan! Ed, you and Jon Arryn, do you know how much I love you, and what happened to you in the end?

Mine should be either you or Jon."

"Your Majesty, you are the most legitimate among the three of us, and the one most qualified to be king." Ed reminded him, "Robert..."

"I asked you to drink, but I didn't ask you to talk back. Damn it, since you two made me the king, at least you should pay attention to what I want to say when I speak." Robert complained, "Ai

De, look at me...look at what I have become after becoming the king. By the gods, I never thought that one day I would be so fat that I can't even wear my own armor. How could I do this?

Like this?"

"Robert, in fact, the reason why I brought Duke Gao Yuan to you today is not just to persuade you not to participate in the group competition." After much hesitation, Ed finally spoke up and revealed the real purpose of coming to Robert today, "Joan

En Aelin's death may not be that simple."

Robert frowned and looked at Eddard. He asked with some confusion: "Edd, what do you want to say? What do you mean by this? Didn't you come here today just to persuade me not to participate in the tourney?"

"I want to say that we have investigated the real cause of Jon Arryn's death." Ed said sadly. "I am afraid that Jon Arryn's sudden death was not due to a vicious disease. It should have been intentionally poisoned and murdered."

As soon as he finished speaking, Robert was stunned. The tent was so quiet that one could almost hear a pin drop. Gao Yuan saw that Robert's hands were tightly gripping the armrests of the chair, and his knuckles were turning white from the force.

The sound of the king's gnashing of teeth could be clearly heard in the silent tent, which made people feel terrified.

The extreme anger made King Robert tremble all over, but surprisingly, he did not vent this anger at the first time, but walked to the wine barrel seemingly indifferently and took care of the wine in his hand.

The wine glass is filled with beer.

It wasn't until he drank five large glasses of beer that he walked back to the two of them and sat down without saying a word, as if it was the last calm before the storm.

Soon, King Robert could no longer hold back the anger in his heart. He raised his hand and slammed the horn cup in his hand on the ground, and then trampled it into pieces. Countless beers and fragments scattered everywhere.

One place.

After smashing the horn cup in his hand, he then picked up the chair under him and threw it violently outside the tent; a full-length mirror was smashed by him; he kicked down several beautifully decorated pictures.

table; lifted the bearskin from the bed and tore it into pieces...

After angrily smashing everything that could be smashed in the tent, King Robert, who could no longer vent his anger, slumped down on his bed dripping with sweat, looking at the ground in front of him blankly, and then

He roared loudly again.

Eddard swore that he had never seen Robert in such pain in his life. Even when he learned of Lyanna's death, he never showed such pain. At that time, he showed more pain in front of him.

It was the anger towards Prince Rhaegar. At that time, he wanted to dig out Rhaegar's body and cut it into thousands of pieces.

It can be seen that he really loves the old man very much. The reason why Robert was so indifferent to Jon Arryn's death before this was just because he had always been kept in the dark.

Now after learning the truth of the matter, I have vented all the emotions I have accumulated for a long time.

"Robert... don't be like this..." Ed couldn't bear seeing this scene, and wanted to step forward to comfort his old friend, "Now Jon Arryn's death is irreversible.

Our most important task at present is to bring his murderer to justice. Only in this way can we comfort his spirit in heaven."

"Ed... tell me the truth... who is it..." King Robert raised his head and looked at Ed, his eyes were bloodshot at this moment.

Rau turned to him and roared: "Who on earth...who murdered Jon Arryn!"

"It's Petyr Baelish and Lysa Arryn..." Ed said in a deep voice, "Petyr is the real mastermind behind all this. He and Jon's wife Lysa Arryn...

Lin conspired together to secretly poison her husband."

"Lysa Arryn is that damn crazy woman. No wonder she took Jon's son and fled from King's Landing overnight after Jon's death. She actually had the nerve to flee back to her husband's territory and castle. At that time, I

I think it's not that simple!" Robert was furious when he heard this, "I just didn't expect that she was the one who murdered Jon! What exactly is going on here, please tell me carefully, Eddard!"

"I'm afraid Duke Gaoyuan will tell you this personally. All the truth about Jon Arryn's death was obtained by Duke Gaoyuan's secret investigation in King's Landing." Ed will be tasked with telling the truth.

He handed it over to Gao Yuan, "If Duke Gao Yuan hadn't been helping us with the secret investigation, I'm afraid we would still be kept in the dark until now. It was he who found the key witness to accuse Petyr and Lysa."

"As expected, I was right about you, Duke Gao Yuan!" Robert turned to look at Gao Yuan, "You did a great job in helping us find the real murderer of Jon Arryn. I owe Robert this time."

I owe you a favor. If you have any requests in the future, just ask me. I believe there are not many wishes among these seven countries that I cannot fulfill for you."

"Your Majesty, this is what I should do! The reason why I agreed to help the Prime Minister investigate this incident is not to ask for anything from you or the Prime Minister." Gao Yuan rejected Robert's request to repay him.

, "In addition to repaying you for canonizing me as the Guardian of the East, my involvement in this matter is actually for myself. In exchange for the support of the valley princes, I promised that they would come to King's Landing to investigate Qiong.

Well, the truth about Lord Aelin’s death.”

"Duke Gaoyuan! Please stop chatting with me about the rewards and princes that are available and not available. I have no interest in the so-called motives and reasons in your mouth." Robert was quite impatient with Gaoyuan's eloquent talk, "Now I

I just want to know why they wanted to kill Jon Arryn. He was so amiable and trustworthy, and Jon had always treated his young wife well. What did he do wrong that forced them to kill him?

.”

"The cause of the whole incident probably started with an investigation conducted by Lord Jon Arryn during his lifetime..."

"..."

Focusing on the truth about Jon Arryn's death, Gao Yuan spent about twenty minutes before telling the complete story of the entire incident.

During this period, Gao Yuan even did not forget to raise some questions of his own with King Robert: What exactly was the investigation conducted by Lord Jon Arryn during his lifetime? What was the relationship between the Lannister siblings?

What kind of secret is there? What key role did Stannis Baratheon play in this incident? What was the motivation behind the whole incident, Littlefinger, in helping Lady Lysa murder Lord Jon?

What? Is it possible that his little finger was instructed by someone else?

"Someone once told me that Jon Arryn asked too many questions!" Ed said in a deep voice, "Just like you, Duke Gaoyuan at this time, you can't help but go to investigate if you are too curious.

That brought him into the enemy's sight, and therefore put him in danger."

Gao Yuan turned to look at Ed: "Lord Ed, are you reminding me to be careful against the enemy's plot?"

"At this moment, we all need to be careful about plots from the enemy!" Eddard looked at his old friend Robert, "Robert, especially you should be especially careful. The people around you at this moment are all members of the Lannister family. Although Lannisters

The Nest siblings still don’t know that we have noticed their secret, but for the sake of caution we still have to take precautions.”

"Fortunately, we now at least know who our enemy is, and at least we can trust each other in this tent. And Jon Arryn didn't know who killed him until he died.

There isn’t even anyone trustworthy.”

"Hmph! With me here, what tricks can that stinky woman Cersei and the Kingslayer do?" Robert, who had been silent for a long time, snorted coldly: "These important ministers have spies all over King's Landing. Do you think

As a king, don’t I have an spy in King’s Landing?”

"Duke Goyuan, are you really sure that Jon Arryn's former squire will stand up and accuse Littlefinger? Where is this Sir Hugh now? You must protect him firmly. Now Littlefinger

Already aware of it, he will definitely try his best to get rid of this Sir Hugh who threatens him."

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Your Majesty Robert, please rest assured that Ser Huf has promised to stand up and seek justice for the dead Lord Arryn. He is currently staying at Bronze Yonn's residence in King's Landing.

In a separate courtyard." Gao Yuan replied, "Now in that separate courtyard, it is always guarded by the two sons of Earl Yohn Royce and many knights from the valley. Let Petyr Berry

Xi is extremely capable in King's Landing, and there is absolutely no way he could harm Sir Xiu Fu at all."

King Robert nodded heavily when he heard this. He turned to look at Eddard Stark: "Edd, you found the bottle of poison called 'Tears of Lys' in Grand Maester Pycelle's room.

Well?"

"Living up to Duke Gaoyuan's trust, I led people to search the bottle of poison from Grand Maester Pycelle's room yesterday." Ed carefully took out the "Tears of Lys" from his arms.
