Chapter 566 Visiting the Storm (Part 1)

After a secret conversation with a confidant, Igor lay back on the bed , continue to play dead.

Even though he was in a coma due to poisoning, and even if he did not appear in public for many days, he was still an influential figure north of The Neck, and he was closely watched by all parties, and people came to visit him in an endless stream.

Yesterday and this morning, middle and high-ranking officers of the Land-Grant Army, leaders of the tribes of the original beyond the wall, etc. visited one after another. Igor wants to let these people see that oneself is stable, and then use their words. Let the soldiers at the bottom also know that oneself is safe, so that the Masters of Tigers and Wolves will not get out of control because they feel that the Five Fingers Mountain is missing above their heads.

Now, the Land Granters have all come through one round, and they're platooned to House Stark in the afternoon.

The truth is not difficult to understand: although Igor and his land-grant army temporarily occupy and control Winterfell, the Wolf Family is the owner and master of the castle on the surface after all - the "guest" in oneself's house Poisoning is almost fatal, reasonable in every circumstance, and the owner always has to show a little guilt and concern.

The reason it took two days to arrive is because the previous investigation was not over, and members of House Stark were also suspects and remained under the control and surveillance of the Land Granters and Queen Guard until the "murderer" was arrested After committing suicide in prison, they were completely cleared of their innocence and regained their freedom.

Well, a certain degree of freedom.

"Squeak--"

The door was pushed open in the sour sound of the rotating shaft, and the Wolf Family who were still whispering to each other outside the house kept talking to each other. Everyone was silent, and Qyburn Maester, who was in charge of escorting, entered the house first, followed by Lady Catelyn, Roslin Frey Stark holding her daughter, and Rickon, Sansa and Arya - all the Starks alive except Robb and Bran. , and Myrcella, an additional family member at the end...or the adopted daughter Maeve Snow.

The one who forcibly dragged a large group of people to visit was Catelyn, a temporary parent. In order to protect the children, this mother could be considered to be doing her best, and tightened the political string in her heart that was not very sensitive. Although it was Igor who led the army to break through the castle before, she knew that if she just kept resentment and anger, it would be useless to protect her family. The fact is: Igor is the only wildling in Winterfell who can control them, and she is one of the few. How willing to care to protect them - at least people who pretend to be.

Even if he is a base and shameless hypocrite, he is still much better than a real villain when everyone is looking at him - at least, the former will still care about public opinion.

The children's safety can only be guaranteed if Igor is alive; only if Queen and others feel that "House Stark and Igor's friendship has not been broken by previous conflicts" will they decide and act while still taking into account their interests and feelings. Whether it's for the sake of the family's well-being, or for avoiding rudeness and misrepresentation, she has to bring everyone here today and finish the scene.

The entire group lined up and approached the bedside, looking at Igor lying on the bed with his eyes closed, all pursed their lips, the scene was so quiet that even a needle fell to the ground.

This is an emotional drama for outsiders. They only need to be present and stay in the house for enough time to complete the mission. In the face of the fact that they led the army to break through the castle not long ago, let them pass. The culprit of the house arrest life in fear for a long time, a group of people can hold back the inappropriate scolding and cursing, it is a rare restraint, how can there be any extra greetings and topics to talk about?

Besides, Igor is in a coma now.

It was Catherine who was the first to break the silence and show concern.

"Lord Commander looks good, should he wake up soon?"

"Theoretically." Qyburn disapproved and took Katherine's words, "Only from the physical state. Looking up, he is now the same as a healthy person - whether it is breathing heartbeat or body temperature. The reason why he is still lethargic is probably because the body still needs time to recuperate and repair the trauma to the brain and nerves caused by the poison."

Some explanations are reasonable, almost like the real thing.

According to the script, Igor was supposed to wake up two days after the investigation was deadlocked, but now a real murderer who committed suicide in fear of crime suddenly appeared. Time for bittersweet. Igor is going to be officially announced tomorrow to wake up. Now that someone has asked, he is naturally happy to release the notice earlier to prepare the ground and build momentum.

"That's very good, Winterfell has a lot of medicine that can replenish the body in the warehouse. If Mr. Qyburn needs it, I can take you to identify it later."

" Many thanks Lady is generous, if I really need something, I will come to you and ask to borrow it, so it won't be troublesome for the time being."

Catelyn is pretending to care, and Qyburn Maester also knows that she is pretending to care. The hypocritical conversation ended, and the room fell silent again. Most of Robb's wife's mind is on the baby in her arms and she doesn't care about Igor's life or death. Sansa, the eldest sister who has not been tempered and transformed, is so nervous that her mind goes blank, while Arya, who has always had a close relationship with Igor, is entangled in her heart and doesn't know what to say or do. What, only the younger brother Rickon...because the beloved Direwolf "Shaggydog" was killed in the hands of the Black Shirts in the Battle of the Land Granters' Night Raid in Winter, and hated the person lying on the bed.

Seeing that everyone was silent, he browsed tightly frowns and seriously raised the doubts in oneself's heart: "Why...the life of a bad guy is always so hard?"

Although not It's clear who it is, but standing in front of Igor's hospital bed, with mother Catelyn and Qyburn talking in front of them, what idiot can't understand what it means?
Everyone was startled, Catherine quickly pulled her little son to her side to stop him from continuing to speak out. As for Qyburn standing next to him... Knowing that Igor is impossible and a child cares about the situation, she had to pretend to be deaf She acted dumb and didn't hear it, but in the end, it was Myrcella in the crowd who spoke out to solve the embarrassing situation.

"Since Lord Igor can wake up at any time." After observing the room, Little Princess keenly noticed a question, "Then why is there no one waiting in the room? In case he wakes up, he needs to drink water and eat. , can't you even call someone?"

"Uh..."

This little blind student found Huadian again, and Rao was as smart as Qyburn. Ask live.

Igor is pretending to be dead. Only the most important people know about it, but these people all have a lot of things to do, and it is impossible to accompany Lord Commander in the ward chatting all day... …and if the rest of the people who don't know it stay in the house, Igor will be forced to lie down again to prevent the news from leaking, which will drive people crazy.

A person who seems to be in a coma is lying on the bed. When outsiders leave, they will get up and move on and continue to work. This strange scene must not be seen by unrelated personnel or even the oneself of the Land Granters who are not core enough. This is the room The reason why there is no servant to take care of it, but this reason cannot be explained to others.

Why are the little girls in Winterfell more difficult to deal with?
"It's true that we didn't think well." After thinking about it, it seems that only admitting mistakes can solve the problem, Qyburn Maester admitted humbly: "There should be someone in the room, but this may be the Going to the bathroom or eating. I'll make arrangements later to make sure there is someone in the Lord Commander room around the clock."

Smart answer.

Igor closed his eyes and said.

Just let it go. Anyway, this Little Lass can't come and go freely in the land-grant army camp, and I'm afraid that she can come to supervise whether the care of oneself is in place?
Myrcella was naturally skeptical, so she could only agree with nodded. She looked at Igor on the bed for two seconds, and suddenly she was pleasantly surprised: "Hey, I seem to have seen Lord Igor's eyes move!"
