"Do I need to see Brenni? She's still in the Moon Gate Castle and refuses to leave, "Sansa asked.
"You can, but not now. The Roseless Iron Guard certified by the Dragon Queen is certainly trustworthy, but that 'Knight's Light' here is a little … "
Pinky tapped his temple a few times, the corner of his mouth twitching. "If she knows your identity, it won't be long before the people of the Seven Kingdoms know that you're in Arrin Valley.
But Lannister is still sitting on the Iron Throne. What will they think and do?
Don't worry, the nobles of the Valley are treating the Roseless Iron Guard with the highest standard of etiquette. She's living very well now. "
"Mm." Sansa nodded, relieved.
Pinky sniffed the girl's red hair at the tip of his nose and sighed in satisfaction. "Now, do you understand?
The Dragon Queen may have only appeared in the Westeros for a short time, but the few actions she did made the nobles with honor have a good impression of her. "
"But are there any honorable nobles in the Seven Kingdoms now?" Sansa sneered.
If they had honor, they wouldn't have watched her father die unjustly; if they had honor, they wouldn't have ignored the Frey family who violated the guest's rights.
"If they don't have honor, how can I keep the title of 'Guardian of the Valley'?" Pinky smiled proudly.
These words came out of nowhere, and Sansa fell silent again.
After pushing Lysa Tully off the Moon Gate because he was caught kissing Sansa, Pinky's rule in Arrin Valley was not firm.
The six most powerful dukes in the Valley even gathered a group of secondary nobles to form the 'Righteous Alliance' to drive Pinky away and take back the custody of Robert Arrin.
Pinky first bribed a noble in the Righteous Alliance, Sir Lynn Cobry (not one of the six dukes), and then invited the Righteous Alliance to negotiate in the Eyrie.
Pinky was Lysa's husband, and in theory, the Eyrie was his home. Because of this, the terms of the guest's rights were reached in this negotiation: one party went to the other party's house as a guest.
Lynn Cobry pretended to be the toughest enemy of Little Finger. During the negotiation, he pretended to be enraged by Little Finger. He pulled out his ancestral steel sword, Lady of Emptiness, and pretended to kill Little Finger.
This is a violation of the guest's rights: guests receiving hospitality cannot threaten or harm the owner of the house.
However, Lynn Cobry was one of the representatives of the Alliance of Justice.
As such, the entire Alliance of Justice had become the party that violated the rights of the guests.
How could they still have the face to call themselves "righteous"?
In this way, Little Finger easily resolved the crisis by taking advantage of the six feudal vassals' personalities of valuing honor.
If the Six Great Vassals had been replaced by Wade Frey, they would have long since taken the pretense for real. They would have swarmed forward and killed Littlefinger.
As a side note, the price of bribing Sir Lynn was gold royals and a cute little boy: Lynn was the boss of the largest chain of brothels in the Seven Kingdoms.
"Targaryen will not let Stark go."
Sansa hugged Littlefinger's waist tightly, her tears wetting his belly.
"Don't worry, my dear."
Littlefinger caressed her smooth back lovingly and smiled gently. "I already have a great plan.
From the beginning, I have been observing the Dragon Queen's every move, but I still can't see through her.
Either she has a deep mind, like Tywin and Old Rose, or she is as righteous, noble, and fearless as she appears, like Barristan and … your father.
I don't like Tywin and Barristan. "
"My father …"
"Your father is very righteous. I really want to help him. I have advised him many times, but he doesn't listen at all. A righteous person who is firm in his stance and doesn't know how to be flexible is very difficult to deal with. "Littlefinger sighed.
"What are you going to do?" Sansa said gloomily.
"Did you know that Regar's son, Aegon, is still alive?" Littlefinger smiled slyly.
Sansa was shocked. She raised her head and said in disbelief, "That's impossible. Tywin threw him to the wall. Everyone knows that."
Littlefinger explained Aegon's situation and sighed. "Varys hid it so well."
"How do you know such a secret?"
Sansa was surprised at first, but then she thought of the three brothers by Cersei's side. (That's right, the three brothers were Uncle Littlefinger's spies.) She said in realization, "Oh gods, even Danny Rize has spies by her side?"
Littlefinger smiled faintly and said, "It's impossible for me not to pay attention to her. Unfortunately, she is not Cersei. My men are only mid-level officers on Dragonstone Island. They can't find out anything too secret.
Fortunately, the Dragon Queen doesn't seem to want to hide information about Aegon … Well, it can't be hidden. The Alliance has been watching Aegon all this time. Aegon must have recovered his true identity at Slaver's Bay. "
"But what does Aegon have to do with us?" Sansa asked again.
"Danny Rize doesn't want to be with him. She doesn't even want to break the oath for him. Yes, the oath that 'the one who ends the Long Night shall be king.' "
Littlefinger's expression was a mixture of sarcasm and confusion. He said, "I'm curious. What is she thinking? Why does she think there will be a Long Night?"
"Jon said there are Deviants outside the Wall. Old Nan has been telling us stories about the Long Night since we were young. It's very scary, "Sansa said.
Yes, the Wall also sent a letter to the Eyrie.
To show respect to the Seven Dukes, the commander-in-chief, Jon Snow, wrote it himself.
Seeing the familiar handwriting, Sansa shed tears for her illegitimate brother for the first time.
"Haha, my good daughter, you should read the history books. The scholars have seen through the tricks of the ancients."
Littlefinger smiled contemptuously and proudly.
"The most authoritative history book of the Westeros, 'The Truth of History', deduced the appearance of the Deviants and the Long Night in detail.
The Deviants are just a group of savages from beyond the Great Wall who looked very special. Sansa, if you meet more foreigners, you will understand how reasonable the scholars' words are.
Take me for example. I work in the customs office all year round.
I've seen the hairy Ibans with short legs and long arms. I've seen the pointy-headed, skinny Zebra people. I've seen the Summer Islanders with dark, shiny skin.
I've also seen the tall, fair-skinned Lorasian people.
Even the Valleglia people are different from ordinary people. They look very delicate.
The Deviants are the same. They may know magic, they may be cruel and bloodthirsty, but they are only human, savages from beyond the Great Wall!
Thousands of years ago, they crossed the Wall and, like Mansred, tried to rob the North in winter.
That time, the North must have suffered heavy losses. The northerners experienced a cruel winter and many died.
Thus, the Long Night appeared in the survivors' mouths.
It was really too hard to endure that winter.
Their descendants would only exaggerate the horror of the Deviants and the Long Night in order to boast about their ancestors' achievements.
In the end, the story became what it is now. "
"But there are also legends of the Long Night in other countries, Asol Ahai," Sansa said hesitantly.
"If you think about the legends from all over the world, it seems like every nation has a savior. In Hyrcologne, it's called Hyrcologne. In Barbarian Land, it's called Barbarian Tarr. In Nygael, it's called Nefrion.
Because they're not the same person!
Just like Danny Rize's' Dragon Queen '. She's now world-famous and has many nicknames:' Mother Of Dragons', 'Khaleesi', 'Dragon Witch', 'Queen of Slaver's Bay' and so on.
But no nation would call her by the wrong name.
The scholars explained it very clearly: when there was a disaster, the people began to call for a hero. Every nation went through their own disaster, and then all kinds of heroes appeared.
Then, the Red Priests organized all the stories and made a story about the Child of Prophecy that seemed to be true history.
To put it bluntly, the Red Gods used the name of the Child of Prophecy to spread their faith. The Great Sparrow of King's Landing is doing the same now. "
Littlefinger's confident expression as if he had seen through everything made Sansa admire him.
Littlefinger tapped Sansa's little head and taught her earnestly, "Remember, read more books. We don't have dragons, nor do we have unparalleled power. We can only rely on our wits.
And reading books is the most effective way to increase one's experience and wisdom. Scholars … Perhaps they violate the rights of guests, but morals have nothing to do with wisdom.
"Just like me. I'm so bad, but I'm also the wisest." He smiled strangely and reached out his hand …
"You're so annoying!" Sansa blushed … but she didn't struggle.
Littlefinger let out a satisfied sigh and continued, "The scholars' knowledge has been tested for thousands of years. They're trustworthy. The classics that the scholars left behind are even more worthy of our attention."
"I heard that Danny Rize has been wandering around since she was young. She never went to school or read books." Sansa smiled.
"That's right. She's illiterate!" Littlefinger understood.
Then, he continued, "But Aegon isn't illiterate. He has Clinton, Ashara and Haldon teaching him.
If I were him, knowing that I couldn't get help from my aunt, I would immediately rush back to the Westeros after taming the Megalosaurus.
If he couldn't be the husband of the queen, he would be the king himself.
First, he attacked the unguarded Storm's End and gathered the old Targaryen officials. Danny Rize actually rejected their submission. I really don't know what she's thinking. "
With a sigh, Littlefinger continued his deduction, "With Jon Clinton's connections and abilities, Aegon should be able to control the Stormlands and make it his base.
Then, he can ride a dragon to Dorne and win over his uncle's support. Then, he can ride a dragon to intimidate the Eyrie and force me to side with him. "
Littlefinger shrugged and said in a seemingly helpless but actually proud manner, "What can I do? Against the Megalosaurus, the Eyrie is just a target!
I can only join the king's army and use my obedient daughter to marry him. The Northern Territory, the Valley, the Stormlands, Dorne, no matter what, I can defeat the dying lion and the listless Rose, right? "
"Marriage …"
Sansa didn't react for a moment. When she heard the words' Northern Territory ', she understood that Littlefinger was talking about her.
She was currently using the name 'Alaine Stone' and was Littlefinger's illegitimate daughter.
"You want me to marry Aegon?" She said in disbelief.
"You don't want to?" Littlefinger asked.
"You want to?" She squeezed her breasts against him.
"Oh!" Littlefinger moaned and raised his finger.
"You don't know how much I want to marry you. But I've already married Lyssa. The power of Arrin Valley is related to our future. Even if she's dead now, I have to protect it, "Littlefinger said affectionately.
Littlefinger had indeed proposed to Tywin and asked him to marry Sansa to him.
It didn't work.
Now, he was confident that he could control Sansa, who married Aegon, just like he could control Lyssa, who married Duke Jon.
He could make Lyssa poison her husband, maybe he could also …
