Chapter 245
The night the tour ended, a grand banquet was held at the camp. With the helmet off, Dany couldn't turn down Ser Baelor's invitation.
House Hightower's tent is close to the waterfront. The tent is made of gold wire and is the largest and most gorgeous building in the entire camp.
However, two iron shields were erected outside the tent door, which were decorated with the white Hightower of House Hightower and the green-backed Golden Rose of Highgarden House Tyrell.
Seven huge bison are slowly turning on the barbecue irons by the tent, slaughtered in the early morning, marinated in the morning, roasted in the afternoon, and have been roasting for several hours now. During this time, I have been helping the chef little brother to spread the cream and spices until the meat is crispy and oily.
The banquet was held outside the tent, with a long dining table and benches set up on the spacious grounds by the river, while the maids were placing jugs full of golden wine, strawberries and bananas on the table. A compote of apples, and a loaf of freshly baked white bread.
"Miss Rhaella, you're so gorgeous tonight." Dickon, who was walking with difficulty, said embarrassedly.
As Horn Hill's heir, Dickon is also on the invitation list for the banquet. He came from the other side of the camp, and the two happened to meet. The fall in the morning seemed to have twisted his waist. He supported his waist with one hand and held a little girl with a childish face with the other.
And Dany is not dressed up gorgeously, with a blue velvet dress embroidered with white edges, long black hair braided and fixed on the top of his head with sapphire hairpins, and there is no chain on his neck. points of free and easy.
It's the little girl next to Dickon, the silver satin dress with squirrel skin trim, the long sleeves with light purple beard, the thick golden cover and the delicate silver hair net set with deep purple gems.. ....Hey, it's a bit like a married woman's dress?
"Is this your Lady?" Dany asked hesitantly.
"Hello, Miss Rhaella, I'm Eleanor Mooton from Maidenpool." little girl blushed shyly.
"You're beautiful, Mrs. Tarly," Dany said with a forced smile.
You're so young, how can a big Dickon talk!
Although Dany is the champion of the competition and an unprecedented female knight champion, she is an "illegitimate daughter" with no name and unknown origin, and is naturally not qualified to sit at the main table in the middle.
The spliced eight-meter long table is placed horizontally outside the tent door, as the main table, and four long tables are placed vertically at the bottom.
Under the leadership of squire, Dany and Dickon separated, the young couple went to the main table, and Dany sat down at the head of the third wooden table.
And the archery champion and the team competition champion are sitting on the left and right of her, and there are also the second sons of aristocrats with a "deteriorated face" at the same table.
Well, the reason why people dress up in great spirits and dress appropriately is all because of Dany's psychological effect.
Well, as soon as she sat down, a group of young, talented people squeezed in to say hello.
"Miss Rhaella, I am the third son of XXEarl, you are so beautiful, it is the blessing of three lifetimes to be with you..."
"Miss Rhaella , my father is XXSer, may I ask who is your father? Most people can't train a talented Knight like you, I am also from xx city, Gordon Hill (Westerlands illegitimate child)."
...
Dany's unfathomable mystery at first, oneself didn't "acted coquettishly" like a peacock? She even wore a suit-style coat and didn't even show much flesh. Why are these guys excited?
Does it only look at the face?
She touched her face and thought narcissistically.
until Baelor came out of the rear tent with Rhyllia in full dress...
little girl wore a dark green velvet low-cut dress that matched the color of her eyes. She has brown hair scattered over her bare shoulders, a slender crystal crown on her head, an emerald-encrusted webbing tied around her waist, and a charming purple gem the size of a dove egg hanging from a fine silver chain under her neck.
Undisputedly the brightest lady of the night.
That's not the point.
When a group of noble Young Masters from the first and second tables greeted them and said "Miss Rhyllia, I am the eldest son of xxEarl, from xx", Dany suddenly understood: these nobles The eldest son of the family wants to marry Rhyllia, while the second son and illegitimate child of the small noble family around oneself think that she is right with them.
After she understood this, she only said one sentence, and the number of people who came to show her hospitality was reduced by three-quarters.
"Ai, to tell you the truth, my father's title is not low, and the territory is not small, but our family was on the wrong team in the battle of Usurper, the title has long been abolished, and the territory and property have been replaced by King Robert. Confiscated." Dany told the truth.
It turned out to be an exiled nobleman.
The people around them instantly understood, and the second son and the illegalimate child left and dispersed, as if he hadn't said the kind words before.
Some people leave and some people join.
A bald man in his forties, lustful looked at Dany and said, "Miss Rhaella, I'm Crane Earl of Red Lake, would you like to swim with me in Red Lake?
Do you know the origin of Red Lake?
Red Lake was formerly known as Blue Lake, because thousands of years ago, Garth Greenhand's son Brandon of the Bloody Blade slaughtered Children of the Forest beside the lake, causing the lake water It has turned red, and it still smells of blood!"
——In any case, 'Rhaella' is young and beautiful, and is still the champion of the competition, an absolute high-quality "resource". Even if you can't be the wife of the second son of a minor noble, you can still be the third wife of a married noble!
"Waters" gave birth to "Flowers" (Reach illegitimate child), as it should be.
That's why Dany has a lot of people around him.
Understanding the purpose of the surrounding nobles, Dany stared blankly at the sky, thinking about one thing: Is it wrong to not allow Big Black and the others to eat people?
Maybe some people are born to feed dragons.
"When—" There was a clear ringing bell on the main table, and then Baelor Hightower began to toast - wishing Dad a long life, Oldtown prosperous, Ironmen dead in the sea, Reach before winter Two more bumper harvests...
Finally, he raised his wine glass and shouted: "I wish Wu Yun a prosperous, Long Summer forever!" A guest and a few hundred Knights by the bonfire outside held a horn cup and shouted: "Wu Yun is prosperous, Long Summer is forever!"
Drinking this cup of wine, the banquet officially began.
Dany sighed in relief, no one will harass her for the time being, and she doesn't have to worry about calling Big Black down to eat people.
The minstrels entered the venue, sat under the torches, and let the music flow into the night.
A juggler throws flaming sticks in the air, a clown-painted dwarf wears multi-colored clothes, dances on stilts, and a 'funny entertainer' speaks loudly When I heard the dirty joke, the lady covered her face and giggled, and the man laughed out loud, and responded with the same "wonderful" yellow joke.
Meanwhile, dishes were served one after another, with thick barley venison soup, Beetroot salad with nut shards, spinach and plum salad, and honey garlic boiled snails.
It was followed by sweetbread, pigeon pie, cinnamon-scented baked apples and frosted Lem cake.
Of course, the roasted whole beef was also brought up.
Dany tried other dishes with keen interest pleasure, except for the roast bison.
Because roast beef is the main course.
For this type of dish, dining etiquette clearly stipulates that what kind of identity sits in what seat, and what part of the barbecue the guests in what seat eat.
Simply put, the roast beef is right there, but you can't just cut the meat with a knife. The tenderest and most delicious parts can only be eaten by those with the highest status on the scene.
The guests also chatted with each other during the banquet, and heard an old male voice from the main table: "I wonder what Most Devout Peter thinks about what High Sparrow has done recently?"
Dany With a move in his heart, he turned his head to the side, and the question was an Archmaester wearing a long chain. She happened to know the Archmaester who was watching the history of Perestan in jousting.
The old Archmaester sat in the middle of the main table, opposite to the old Septon in white robe with star design on his chest.
Most Devout Peter put down his fork and wiped the oil from his lips with a napkin, before slowly saying, "In this chaotic situation, the restoration of Warrior's Sons and Poor Fellows is good for the country and for the Church."
>"Perhaps, but now there is a fierce conflict between the religious power and the imperial power, the King's Landing Gold Cloak is not a big deal, the Poor Fellows are getting bigger and bigger, and their strength is even more than King's guards, so that High Septon can be... .."
The red-nosed Archmaester glanced at Earl Garlan at the top, and immediately changed the words, "I imprisoned Queen Margaery and her cousins on trumped-up charges, and used adultery, disorderly... Dowager Regent Cersei was arrested for murder and murder.
Even the Queen and Regent King were arrested. This is a major event that has never been seen in history. I wonder if Devout Peter can tell me what Church wants to build. country?"
"This..." The red-nosed Devout Peter immediately turned bitter.
He usually puts usury loans, eats delicacies from the mountains and seas, and when he has energy, he takes care of Maiden, or seduces a few beautiful little boys in the Church.
He never cared about major events like establishing new regimes, benefiting Seven Kingdoms followers!
"Lord Devout, King is the first noble, the nine Dukes (Seven Kingdoms, Dragonstone, Ironman's Bay) are the second level 1 nobles, Marquess and Earl are the third nobles, Ser, Landed Knight is the next level 1 noble.
Most Devout put the Church of The Seven above the King, which means the rest of the Level 3 nobles are below the Church, do you understand what that means?" Archmaester is somewhat overbearing, and has no intention of letting go of the embarrassed old Devout.
This topic is too serious and too sensitive. The nearby Knights and nobles stopped talking and turned their attention to it. Even Garlan and Baelor put down their wine glasses and looked at Devout Peter.
"Ai, tell you the truth," the old Devout sighed then said, with a gray face, "from the very beginning, we couldn't control the behavior of High Sparrow - we didn't even know his name was What, from which parish.
When King's Landing Most Devout met behind closed doors to elect High Septon, High Sparrow wasn't a candidate at all.
He wasn't even a Devout before, which Eligible to run for High Septon?
But Sparrows rushed into the venue with the axe high and High Sparrow on his shoulders. The opponents were judged by Sparrows on the spot. What else can the other Most Devout do other than submit?
Two Church Forces, Poor Fellows and Warrior's Sons, were established, that's right, but only the High Septon who calls himself 'High Sparrow' can control them, not to mention the adults, I'm also afraid!"
" We're not afraid! Those Sparrows, who are only wearing a layer of sackcloth, are not enough for me to kill." Some Knight said angrily.
Someone immediately refuted, "We are all Knights who have been anointed and sworn in front of The Seven, how can we attack the Church Warrior?"
"This is the question where," the old Archmaester nodded, bright light flashed in his eyes, "before High Sparrow, the nobles, the Knights and the Church were interdependent, but now the balance is broken."
