Game of Thrones: The Red Dragon Lord

Arya didn't answer after hearing this, she just looked at Ned angrily.

Ned knelt down and gently stroked Arya's hair, his eyes filled with guilt. "Arya, there will be plenty of time to learn swordsmanship in the future, but right now, your safety is the most important. I...I'm sorry that I can't stay with you all the time. I have to wait for the return process."

Sansa's eyes turned red, "Father, we don't want to leave you."

Ned stood up and took a deep breath, trying to keep his voice calm. "Go, girls, and let the nun help you pack your things."

Sansa and Arya looked at each other and reluctantly left the room.

Ned sighed slowly. This time he went south with thirty guards. They were all men from the north who had followed him for many years. They were sincere to him and to the Stark family. This was his most trusted force in King's Landing, but Considering the safety of his daughters, he still called his captain of the guard, Jory Kelso, and ordered:

"I want you to select twenty people to escort my daughters out of King's Landing." Ned's voice was low and powerful. "You will lead the team and set off immediately."

Although Qiao Li had doubts after hearing this, he looked at Ned with a serious expression, nodded slightly, and said seriously: "Don't worry, sir, I will ensure their safety even if it costs me my life."

Ned smiled happily and continued to give instructions: "It's easy to be intercepted on land. Hire a ship and leave by sea."

Qiao Li responded solemnly: "I understand, my lord. I will arrange everything as soon as possible."

At this time, the nun came in and said, "Sir, the ladies' things have been packed."

Ned nodded and said to Jory: "Take them away and make sure they are safe."

The two girls turned back three times with each step, their eyes full of reluctance. Ned looked at their leaving figures with endless worry in his heart.

King's Landing is located on the north bank of the Blackwater River, stretching over three hills, bordering the east coast and overlooking Blackwater Bay.

The red fort on the top of the hill was the inner city, and the high wall built later was the outer city, forming a condescending city defense layout.

As the capital city, King's Landing is also the largest of the five major ports. Commercial activities here are very prosperous. Cargo ships come in and out of the port, bringing goods from distant places to King's Landing, and transporting King's Landing's specialties to all parts of the world.

However, the air in King's Landing is always filled with an unbearable smell of feces and urine, garbage piles up in the narrow streets, and sewage flows freely.

No one has ever counted how many people live in King's Landing, and even those in power are unable to do so due to population movements.

The people in the city were busy with their lives as usual, however, the atmosphere today was somewhat unusual.

The golden robes of the Capital Guard suddenly mobilized on a large scale in the city. They were dressed in shining armor, walking in a hurry, and the weapons in their hands shone coldly in the sun.

Pedestrians on the street stopped one after another and looked at the actions of the golden robes in surprise.

Some people began to whisper to each other and discuss this sudden change in a low voice.

"Is there any big shot going on a trip? Why are there suddenly so many golden robes?" an old man selling fruit said with a frown.

"Who knows? Maybe the drunkard king is going on a trip, so he can hide in these golden robes and don't mess with them." A woman next to him agreed, with disgust on his face.

There are seven gates in King's Landing, among which only River Gate is located near the port.

At this moment, the number of golden robes here increased significantly. They quickly gathered at the city gate and watched everything around them with vigilance.

Onion Knight - Davos Seaworth was about to enter the city with his son Mathos. He had just brought back two new ships from the shipyard in Seagull Town. After handing over the ships to the fleet, he was about to Returning to Stannis, he happened to notice unusual behavior at the city gate.

Davos was born in Flea Bottom and had a natural aversion and sensitivity to golden cannons. Seeing the golden robes gathering at the river gate, he felt a trace of doubt in his heart.

But he didn't speculate too much and thought to himself: "When you meet Lord Stannis, you will know the reason behind this." He frowned slightly and continued walking towards the river gate.

The moment Davos walked through the River Gate and stepped into King's Landing, he was greeted by the noise of people and various sounds.

Feeling the familiar bustle of King's Landing, Davos smiled happily, and the fatigue from a month of sailing gradually dissipated.

Suddenly, a dull bell broke the din. Immediately, he felt uneasy. In King's Landing, the bells never rang for no reason. Every time they rang, it meant something big had happened.

Usually, the rapid and short ringing of bells means a warning of foreign enemy invasion; the slow and continuous ringing of bells announces a major celebration or ceremony; and different rhythms and durations do have different meanings, but although Davos is in King's Landing Growing up, I couldn’t fully understand every meaning of this.

But when the bell rang one after another, calmly and rhythmically seven times.

Davos couldn't help but feel nervous. He was very familiar with this bell. The seven tones signified the death of a big shot.

At the same time, as the bell rang, the golden robes who had gathered here quickly took action. They quickly closed the city gate and set up defenses in front of the city gate.

The heavy city gate made a creaking sound, as if telling of the coming storm.

The crowd was instantly confused. People looked around in panic and talked about who was dead.

Various speculations and worries spread among the crowd, and an atmosphere of fear hung over the entire city like a dark cloud.

Davos was getting more and more uneasy. He wanted to rush to the Red Castle to see Stannis and learn from him.

Mathos asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Father, what's the matter with the bells?"

After hearing this, Davos replied solemnly: "Seven bells usually mean that a member of the royal family or a minister has passed away. But we can only know who it is when we get to the Red Castle."

Mathos couldn't help but say: "Father, could it be the king? These golden cloaks suddenly closed the city gates? Do they know something?"

Davos shook his head slightly and said: "Don't speculate now. We have to see Lord Stannis as soon as possible and learn from him."

Mathos nodded and followed his father to speed up and rush towards the Red Castle.

At the same time, in the Red Castle, the shouting and killing were deafening, the collision of swords and shields, and the angry shouting were intertwined, making the entire Red Castle shrouded in a tense and bloody atmosphere.

Jaime Lannister, wearing golden armor and looking indifferent, commanded nearly a hundred gold cloaks and Lannister soldiers, fighting with Stannis and Ned's guards.

Although the gold cloaks were numerous, their performance in the battle was not satisfactory. Facing the opponent's elite guards, they seemed helpless for a while.
