Start with Lord of the Rings

Chapter 258 Morgan is a Good Candidate!
Time passed slowly.

The night was darker.

The welcome feast in the inner castle hall of Winterfell lasted until late at night, before it began to dissipate slowly.

When Morgan left the hall and set foot on the road back to his residence.

Only to find that there was heavy snow again in the sky.

Back home in the wind and snow.

After closing the door, I felt slightly drunk.

Morgan stood in front of the window, looking at the snowflakes falling suddenly outside the window, feeling peaceful in his heart.

Take out the oak pipe, fill it with tobacco, and light it.

"Clap clap."

"call"

He took a deep breath, and then exhaled the smoke long and long.

Looking at the quiet wind and snow outside the window, Morgan recalled the welcome banquet tonight in his mind.

It should have left a familiar impression on Queen Cersei Lannister.

As for the twin brother to the queen, Kingsguard Jaime Lannister.

I must have left a deep impression on myself.

If he agreed to his proposal, he would continue to hold a tournament with Ed Stark.

Then, that would be a great opportunity for him to make a name for himself in this world.

On the contrary, if the other party does not agree.

I have nothing to lose.

Although it is likely to have offended James Lannister.

But Morgan didn't care.

If you want to quickly become famous in this world, it's not that easy, and there's no way you can't offend others.

And for Ed Stark, the city of Winterfell who is now nominally his employer.

Based on the impression in Morgan's memory, plus the contact and understanding these days.

In the eyes of Duke Eddard Stark, who is calm, conservative, chivalrous, respectful of rules, and honor is above all else, he may be a bit over-acted this time.

No one is a fool.

Morgan first offered to help Eddard Stark when he was in distress.

It is indeed an excellent job to maintain the face of the employer.

But when he spoke for the second time, when he deliberately proposed the method of competition without discussing with Ed Stark in advance, it was a bit too much.

Although it did make James Lannister speechless and embarrassed; it also saved Ed Stark's face.

But it may also make the conservative Duke of Winterfell, who had no intention of participating in the tourney mentioned by James Lannister, feel uncomfortable.

But Morgan has no regrets.

He never thought about who he would always follow, or who he would be loyal to.

Applying for a swordsman in Winterfell is just to catch up with the Stark family, so as to better understand the upper-level situation of this world.

Of course, it is also Morgan's goal to use the Stark family relationship platform to find opportunities.

Like a banquet tonight.

The night was darker.

Snowflakes fell suddenly.

A night of silence.

Morgan suddenly stretched out his hand out of the window and caught a few icy snowflakes.

Looking at the crystal snowflakes that quickly melted in the palm of your hand.

At this moment, Morgan thought of his wife and children far away in Middle-earth.

"Hoohoo."

The bitter cold wind carried snowflakes against the glass windows.

Winterfell Castle.

Warm and luxurious room.

Caitlin Tully, who was wearing exquisite pajamas, closed the window and returned to the bed, and was embraced by her husband Ed Stark.

I felt that my husband had something on his mind.

Caitlin Tully didn't speak either, she just hugged her husband quietly.

Silent for a while.

Ed Stark, whose eyes were lost in thought, finally came back to his senses.

"After I leave."

"and many more."

As soon as Ed Stark spoke, his wife Caitlin Tully immediately raised her head and interrupted: "Have you decided to go to King's Landing?"

"Did you go by yourself, or did the fat man force you?"

Hearing what his wife said, Ed Stark just smiled and shook his head.

"Tell me, I won't let him take you."

"You are mine now."

"I won't let you go, no one can take you away."

Listening to his wife's slightly playful words.

Ed Stark patted his wife's head and said softly, "He is the king."

"If the king's words can be easily overruled."

"Then he's not a king anymore"

After Ed Stark finished speaking, he changed his voice and continued: "It's just that I didn't expect that he has become so fat after only nine years."

"He's much more comfortable than you."

"What else does he do besides eating, drinking, and having fun every day?"

"No matter how fat I am, I don't think it's strange."

Caitlin Tully answered with a smile.

At this time.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door.

"what's up?"

Ed Stark asked.

"Lord Stark, Maester Luwin begs to see you."

The voice of the guard came from outside the door.

Maester Luwin has long been a retainer of the Stark family, and he is still the most trusted one.

Ed Stark didn't care, he was still lying on the bed with his wife and said directly, "Let him in."

The voice fell.

With the sound of the door opening, an old man with short hair in a gray bachelor's robe walked in.

"Excuse me, ma'am, a messenger arrived overnight. It's a letter from Madam's sister."

Hearing this, Catelyn Tully immediately got up and got out of bed, and took a small envelope sealed with red wax from Maester Luwin.

"Hey, the letter is from Eagle's Nest City"

"She hasn't been back there since she married Jon Arryn."

Caitlin Tully looked at the writing on the envelope, and opened her mouth in doubt.

Then he opened the envelope and unfolded the letter paper.

Immediately afterwards, Caitlin Tully's complexion became ugly at a speed that could be seen.

At this time, seeing Maester Luwin who was turning around to go out, she immediately said, "Wait, Luwin."

Finally, after quickly reading the letter paper, Caitlin Tully walked quickly to the burning fireplace in the room, and threw the letter paper and envelope in without hesitation.

"What's wrong."

"What did the letter say?"

Seeing his wife's abnormal behavior, Ed Stark, who was lying on the bed, noticed the abnormality and got up and got out of bed.

Catelyn Tully watched as the letter in the fireplace was quickly burned to ashes.

Only then did she turn her head to look at her husband: "She escaped from King's Landing City and returned to Eagle's Nest City."

"He said the husband was murdered by the Lannisters."

"And said that even the king is in danger at this time"

Caitlin Tully watched her husband finish speaking in a deep voice.

Not only was Eddard Stark stunned by the information, Maester Luwin standing at the door was also inexplicably shocked.

"I can empathize with a woman who just lost her husband, but that's not an excuse for him to talk crazy"

"Ed!"

As soon as Ed Stark opened his mouth, he was interrupted by his wife: "If this letter is discovered, my sister Lysa will definitely be executed."

"If she didn't know the cause of her husband's death, how could she send us this letter at such great risk?"

"Ed, I don't agree with you going to King's Landing."

Caitlin Tully looked at her husband with a serious expression.

Just when Ed Stark, who had made up his mind before, was a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say.

Maester Luwin's voice sounded at the right time: "I think your lord should go."

"."

After half an hour.

Maester Luwin had left.

In the still warm room.

Eddard Stark and Catelyn Tully lay back on the bed again.

"I guarantee that if I go to King's Landing this time, I will come back in at most three years."

Ed Stark put his arms around his wife and said in a gentle voice.

"Okay, but you need to take some people with you."

Caitlin Tully had no choice but to compromise.

"Of course, this time not only Sansa, I decided to bring Arya along."

"Take Arya?"

"Yes, it's time for Arya to learn the rules and etiquette of southern court ladies. In a few years, she will be ready to marry like Sansa."

"Okay, you have the final say."

Caitlin Tully nodded, and continued: "Anything else?"

"There are other guards, of course, but I don't plan to bring too many soldiers. You and Robb need more soldiers to stay in the north."

"You have the final say, but there is one person you must take with you."

"Who?"

"Our fencing master Morgan."

"Well, Morgan is indeed a good candidate. Don't tell me I plan to bring him this time."

"Going to King's Landing City this time is definitely dangerous. I can feel more at ease with the powerful Morgan."

"Kate, I can feel your concern."

"But have you forgotten my strength? My strength is no worse than Morgan's."

"If you are ten years younger, I will definitely believe it!"

"But now, you are an old man, don't be brave."

"Ha ha."

"bang bang bang"

Early the next morning.

Morgan didn't wake up naturally, but was aroused by knocking on the door.

"Mr. Morgan."

"Lord Stark is going to go hunting with the King today, and I have specially asked Your Excellency to accompany you."

A voice came from outside the door.

Morgan responded, "I see."

The sound outside the door quickly disappeared.

"Hunting with the King"

Morgan lay on the bed and meditated for a while, then turned over and got up.

After some washing.

Wearing wire mail mail, a long sword on his waist, and a black delicate robe coat, Morgan went out.

Accompanying the king on a hunt at short notice.

Today's training for brothers Brandon Stark and Rickon Stark will naturally be cancelled.

But this time even a long bow and arrow is needed.

Morgan also didn't plan to use the "Galazi Bow" sent by Galadriel from Middle-earth in his dimensional ring space.

After all, it was just dealing with some ordinary beasts.

out of the residence.

Morgan made a beeline for the kitchen.

Along the way, I also saw the direction of the training ground, and many soldiers were busy.

Didn't take much time.

Come out of the kitchen after breakfast.

Morgan then walked to the training ground.

At this time, he saw quite a few warriors in full armor who were saddling their horses and arranging their longbows and arrows, apparently preparing for the king's hunt.

Come to the training ground.

Morgan saw a very conspicuous combination at a glance: a dwarf figure shorter than the dwarves in Middle-earth and a tall man with an ugly half face were sitting side by side in front of the warehouse next to the training, talking without saying a word What.

"'Limp' and 'The Hound'."

Seeing this combination, Morgan smiled, and then walked towards the two of them.

"I need to rest, otherwise no matter how capable I am, I will die on a woman sooner or later."

The little devil Tyrion Lannister was wrapped in a large black robe, casually dealing with the hound Sandor Clegane beside him.

at this time.

Tyrion Lannister's half-opened eyes suddenly saw a tall figure walking towards him.

Black robes, silver mail, tall and strong, with ponytails, handsome looks, and cold temperament.
"This guy, just because of his good looks, can almost compete with his brother, Jaime Lannister, the Kingsguard who is famous for being handsome in the Seven Kingdoms."

"Another guy who makes people envious and jealous."

Looking at the tall figure, Tyrion Lannister subconsciously commented on the person's appearance.

But soon, looking at the figure walking towards him, Tyrion Lannister immediately remembered something: "Handsome, with a black ponytail."

"Isn't this guy in front of you the one that the illegitimate child said he wanted to introduce to him last night?"

Thinking of this, Tyrion Lannister sat up a little bit.

Morgan went straight to the little devil, smiled and said, "Tyrion Lannister?"

Looking at the man in front of him, the little devil nodded slightly, but did not speak.

"I'm Morgan, nice to meet you."

Morgan smiled again.

See the friendly attitude of the man in front of you.

Tyrion Lannister reacted at this moment: "I think, I should be the same."

"You were the first to see me without mentioning that you were the Queen's brother?" "Or are you a "little devil"?"

Listening to the little devil's self-deprecating words.

Morgan laughed.

People who are good at laughing at themselves have great wisdom.

The Tyrion Lannister in front of him was a little different from the one he remembered and imagined.

"Morgan, right? I know you."

At this time, Tyrion Lannister looked at Morgan and said.

"Oh"

Morgan wondered.

Tyrion Lannister continued: "Yesterday, someone said they wanted to introduce you to me, an illegitimate child."

Morgan nodded: "Okay, I should know who it is."

Who else is the most famous illegitimate child in the entire Winterfell, and even the entire Northern Territory, besides Jon Snow.

After some chat.

The two of them got to know each other for the first time.

Morgan didn't forget the terrifying "hound dog" with half of his disfigured face on his side.

"Your Excellency, are you also participating in the hunt?"

Morgan looked at the hound who was adjusting his mail armor and said.

"It seems you are too."

The Hound looked up at Morgan and said.

It looks much better than the body and appearance.

Morgan immediately said, "I'm Morgan."

The Hound stood up, looked at Morgan carefully, and said, "Sandor Clegane."

at this time.

A burst of laughter suddenly came from a distance.

The three looked up together.

Just a little far away, two burly and tall figures followed by a large group of heavily armed soldiers, walking towards the training ground talking and laughing.

It was Eddard Stark, Duke of Winterfell, and Robert Baratheon, King of the Seven Kingdoms.

"Thank you, Ed."

"I know it's hard for you to do, but thank you for not putting it off."

"I really need you"

"Otherwise I wouldn't have come so far to bother you."

"You are a faithful friend, the last and only one"

Robert Baratheon looked at his old friend beside him and said sincerely.

This also made Ed Stark understand that His Majesty the King doesn't seem to be ignorant of things about King's Landing.

Ed Stark: "I hope I can help you."

Robert Baratheon: "You can, and I also want to get rid of your cold and stinky virtue"

Ed Stark: "Haha, that's not easy."

The two walked and chatted and soon came to the training ground.

Ed Stark looked at the ponytailed figure not far away, turned to look at the king and said, "I will introduce you to a marksman."

"Oh"

"Ed, what you introduced must be extraordinary, so I have to see it."

Robert Baratheon immediately became interested.

Ed Stark then looked not far away and shouted, "Morgan."

　Ps: Thank you "Turen Wuliu" for the reward again, and thank you "Shifang" for the reward of [-], and the book friend "Master Huang" for the reward, thank you~~
