Chapter 134 Meet
"I'm going to kill him! I'm going to kill him!"
Prince Oberyn held a long spear in his hand and roared with a ferocious expression.
"Don't be impulsive! Oberyn!" Ellaria Sand hugged Prince Oberyn's waist tightly, trying to comfort her lover, "If you rush to kill Petyr Baelish now, then Isn't your patience all in vain? This not only fails to clear your grievances, but adds new crimes. At that time, the Martell family will really become the public enemy of the whole land! Have you forgotten the death of Starfall City? Have you learned your lesson?"
Perhaps the lover's last words played a role, Prince Oberyn panted heavily, forcing himself to calm down.
But there was still a cold glint in his eyes.
"Then what should I do?" He asked through gritted teeth.
Ellaria breathed a sigh of relief, but still hugged her lover:
"We should try to find evidence first."
"How to find this kind of evidence?" Prince Oberyn shouted violently, "Since Petyr dares to do this, he will not leave any trace!"
"Lysa Tully." Ellaria said, "This is a weak woman, we can start with her!"
"Lysa Tully, Lysa Tully..." Prince Oberyn gritted his teeth, "How to do it? She will never admit such a thing."
"Believe me, Oberyn, I know how to deal with this kind of woman. Besides, she has a son." Ellaria showed a cold smile.
"But I don't think you can succeed."
"At least let me try!" Ellaria persuaded, "Anyway, the trial won't be held for a while, we still have time. Your impulsiveness now will only ruin everything."
"I can make this suspicion public!" Prince Oberyn calmed down, and gradually came to an idea, "Yes, as long as I make this suspicion public, I can let Petyr stand trial with me! When the time comes..."
"Don't be stupid, Oberyn. Lysa Tully is the widow of Duke Jon. If you make such an accusation so rashly, no one will believe it. They will only think it's you. Give me once Opportunity, let me go to Eagle's Nest City to investigate, maybe I can find clues!"
"Okay." Prince Oberyn finally put down his spear, "What is your reason for going?"
"Of course I sincerely apologize to Mrs. Lysa for what you have done, and ask for her forgiveness."
"Aren't you admitting that I killed Jon Arryn?"
"I'm just your lover, not your wife." Ellaria said bitterly, "What qualifications do I have to plead guilty on your behalf? It's just an excuse to get close to that woman."
"Okay, then go there as soon as possible." Prince Oberyn nodded, pretending not to hear other meanings in the woman's tone.
Then he remembered something again, and warned: "By the way, don't tell anyone about this, including Arianne, she can't hide anything."
"I understand." Ellaria stood on tiptoe, kissed Prince Oberyn, and then floated away.
After his lover left, Prince Oberyn sat alone in the room, not moving for a while.
He suddenly thought of a question—did Samwell Caesar deliberately lead himself to doubt Petyr Baelish and Lysa Tully?
But that kid can even confuse Lysa Tully and Caitlin Tully, can he see through Littlefinger's plan?
However, regarding the rumor that Samwell said...
Prince Oberyn suddenly got up, went out to find his attendants, and ordered:
"Go to the flea nest and find out if there are any rumors about Petyr Baelish and Lady Lysa Tully."
"Yes, my lord."
—————
"who?"
Hand of the King, Duke Ed was just about to go to bed when he heard a knock on the door.
"My lord, it's Lord Varys."
Although he wondered why the "octospider" was looking for him so late, Duke Ed still stood up, put on his clothes, and opened the door.
"Sorry, Lord Ed, I have to disturb you at such a late hour."
"What's up?"
Varys took a few steps closer, lowered his voice and said:
"Your wife, Lady Catelyn, is in King's Landing."
"Caitlin? Is she in King's Landing now?" Duke Ed was stunned, "Why didn't I know?"
"She came quietly. However, my little bird saw it..."
"Where is she?"
"I will place her with Lord Petyr."
"Petyr Baelish? Why him?"
Varys spread his hands a little aggrieved: "My lord, your wife doesn't want to attract attention. Of course I can't bring her to the Red Castle. Besides you, she is the closest to Lord Petyr in this city."
A trace of anger flashed in Duke Ed's eyes, but in the end he said:
"OK, take me there!"
—————
"How long until Ed arrives?"
Caitlin asked in a cold tone.
Petyr Baelish looked at the woman with complicated eyes: "Catelyn, I haven't seen you for so many years, you have nothing to say to me..."
"You should call me Mrs. Caitlin." Caitlin corrected.
"Okay, Lady Caitlin." Petyr sighed, the woman's deliberate alienation seemed to make him very sad, "Why did you sneak to King's Landing this time?"
"As a wife, I miss my husband, can't I come and see him?"
Petyr laughed: "Then do you need to make it look like a sneaky lover meeting?"
Petyr sighed again, with a hurt expression on his face: "Catelyn, are you unwilling to tell me anything now? Back in Riverrun, we were as close as siblings."
Katelyn looked at the man's gray-green eyes, and childhood memories flooded her heart, making her feel sad.
As the adopted son of the Duke of Tully, Petyr grew up with her in Riverrun, and they were indeed like siblings.
But when the news of her engagement to the eldest son of the Stark family came, this "brother" suddenly wooed her like crazy, and even had a duel with her fiancé. If she hadn't interceded, he might have lost her My life is over.
Katelyn may never forget that day, this "brother" who has always been clever and clever, swung his sword like a fool and rushed towards an opponent he could never defeat.
Thinking of this, she still softened her heart: "Petyr, I have always regarded you as my younger brother."
"In this case, my good sister, why did you come here?" Petyr said with a sincere face, "Tell me, maybe I can help."
"Okay." Caitlin finally said what her second son Bran Stark said after falling from a high tower and fell into a coma, after waking up, as well as her own conjecture.
Petyr listened quietly, his gray-green pupils shimmering in the night, and after a long while, he spoke again:
"You think Queen Cersei pushed your son off the tower?"
"I'm so skeptical now." Caitlin didn't dare to finish her words, "However, I can't figure out why the queen would do this."
"I think of a possibility." Petyr raised the corner of his mouth.
"What?"
"Your son may accidentally see something he shouldn't." Petyr played with the quill in his hand, "For example, the queen and her brother..."
"The Queen and the Kingslayer?" Caitlin froze for a moment before realizing, "You don't mean..."
Petyr shrugged: "I just heard some rumors. Our Majesty often goes out for a change of taste, so it's not unbelievable that the Queen occasionally eats some desserts, right?"
"But they are brothers and sisters!"
"It's not like this kind of thing has happened before. Aegon Targaryen even married his own sister."
Catelyn still had shock in her eyes, but after thinking about it carefully, she felt that what Petyr said made sense.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
"Oh, my dear brother-in-law is here." Petyr whistled, went to open the door, and saw Duke Eddard and Varys standing at the door.
Duke Ed ignored Petyr, broke into the door, and hugged his wife.
Catelyn poked her head out of her husband's arms, and said to Petyr, "Can you give us a little space?"
"Okay. This room is yours for the time being. But don't do anything bad, this is my study." After finishing speaking, he closed the door.
"Lord Varys." Petyr looked at the **** outside the door with a smile, and lowered his voice, "Thank you so much this time!"
"You're welcome." Varys said in a soft and greasy tone, "We are old friends, and we should help each other."
"Exactly."
"Oh, by the way, there is another news, maybe you will be interested."
"what news?"
Varys smiled mysteriously, and said softly, "Prince Oberyn's lover suddenly left King's Landing yesterday."
"Ellaria Sand? Where did she go?"
"It looks like it should be Eagle's Nest City."
"Eagle's Nest City?" Petyr's pupils shrank suddenly, and he immediately asked, "Who went to see the Red Viper recently?"
Varys turned sideways, facing the darkness and whispered: "The three brothers and sisters of the Tyrell family recently went to the Great Sept of Baelor to give alms."
"Tyrell!" Petyr gritted his teeth.
Varys smiled secretly, and said goodbye immediately:
"Okay, it's getting late, I'll go back to rest first, good night, Lord Petyr."
Petyr watched Varys take a few steps, and suddenly asked:
"Why did you help me this time?"
Varys turned around, feeling a little bit sad: "Well, maybe I'm getting older and becoming more and more nostalgic, so I really don't want to see a familiar face around me disappear like this."
After finishing speaking, he turned and left without waiting for Petyr's response.
In the room, after listening to his wife's narration, Duke Ed's expression changed again and again.
"Queen?" Duke Ed frowned, "But why did the queen kill Bran?"
"I suspect that Bran may have accidentally seen the queen's secret while climbing!"
"What secret?"
"I didn't know before, but just now, Petyr told me that the queen is very likely to have an affair with his own brother!"
Duke Ed was shocked by the news. He couldn't help but think of the ferocious face of the queen when he forced himself to kill the wolf by the Trident River.
It's no wonder the queen is so hostile to herself. It turns out that this is the real reason!
Duke Ed became more and more angry as he thought about it, and said, "I'm going to find the king right now!"
"No, Ed!" Caitlin stopped her husband, "We don't have any evidence right now."
Duke Ed finally calmed down. He pondered for a while, and said to his wife:
"I will collect evidence of the queen's infidelity, and then hand it over to Robert. In this way, I will avenge Bran."
"Okay, you must be careful." Caitlin reminded, "Even if you have evidence, you have to pay attention. I am afraid that Lannister will not give up easily."
Hearing this, Duke Ed was startled.
He couldn't help but think of Duke Tywin Lannister's expressionless face and a widely circulated sentence—
Lannister, you must pay your debts.
