Dealing with this kind of old fox is troublesome. One sentence has to go around in circles. It feels a bit like being in the world of Yitian and negotiating games with court officials.
Suddenly, I felt a gentle tug on my sleeve, and then I saw Tyrion the Imp approaching and whispering, "You really don't look like a Northerner. You can even handle the Queen of Thorns."
"It seems you have been very hard on the Queen, Lord Tyrion."
Recalling the scene in the TV series where the "little devil" Tyrion was almost speechless after being subjected to the queen's "royal contempt," Chen Hui asked with interest, "Has life been rough lately?"
Tyrion's face darkened when he heard this, and he couldn't help feeling sad.
He was originally the King's Hand, but after winning the war, he was dismissed from his position for failing to protect the King.
He wanted to reason with his father, but the old lion scolded him and drove him out of King's Landing, and he ran to the North to work as a messenger.
Looking at Tyrion's depressed expression, Chen Hui, who probably knew what he had experienced, could only shake his head helplessly.
After all, it is difficult for a judge to judge family affairs. Lord Tywin handled both public and private affairs very well, but he had an extraordinary disgust and hatred for his son Tyrion.
If it weren't for his good relationship with him, Tyrion Lannister would probably be disfigured and seriously injured like in the TV series.
After patting his shoulders twice to show encouragement, Chen Hui turned to look at Margaery Tyrell who was chatting and laughing with Robb Stark.
Seeing that this 'Rose of Highgarden' could win the sincere love of all the Starks present with just a few words, even Arya kept circling around her.
Chen Hui couldn't help but admire the Queen of the Seven Kingdoms who beat Cersei almost without any chance of fighting back in the TV series. She is truly a natural born political creature, and her understanding of human nature is like an instinct.
After shaking his head in admiration, Chen Hui took out another box and handed it over, saying with a smile, "Congratulations on your wedding. This is a small gift. See if you like it."
Robb took the box and opened it, and found a pair of daggers inside, with gold handles and ivory sheaths, and the daggers were inlaid with precious gems.
He casually picked up the longer one and took a look. The familiar ripple pattern startled Robb. He said in disbelief, "Valyrian steel daggers? Both of them?"
Chen Hui smiled and nodded. He had obtained several Vareisteel daggers on the 'Tranquility', and later obtained some in the three major city-states, totaling more than a dozen.
However, they were all mass-produced versions with few decorations, so Chen Hui found a skilled craftsman to redecorate them, inlaying them with gold and jade to make them extremely luxurious and precious, as gifts for others.
Chen Hui had given out three swords before: one to Daenerys for self-defense; one to Missandei as a weapon of the Kingsguard; and one to Grey Worm as a symbol of the commander of the Unsullied.
As for Ser Jorah the Big Bear, he was being punished by Daenerys to do hard labor because his identity as a spy was exposed. Before the Dragon Queen calmed down, Chen Hui was unwilling to pay any more attention to this senior middle-aged love-brained man.
I can only say that those who lick dogs will never have a good death.
Valyrian steel weapons were extremely rare in Westeros. Even Margaery Tyrell had only heard of them, but upon seeing them, she couldn't help but be very fond of them. She picked up the shorter dagger and smiled, "Thank you very much, Lord Jon."
"You're welcome." Chen Hui smiled faintly, staring into Margaret's eyes and said in a deep voice, "I wish you a happy wedding and a long and happy marriage."
Chen Hui emphasized the eight words "Happy wedding, and a long and happy marriage", which made Margaret feel uneasy.
She understood that Chen Hui was giving her a warning. If she dared to cause any trouble, these daggers might not be a wedding gift.
After all, a dagger can be used to kill people.
Taking a long, deep breath, Margaery suppressed the uneasiness rising in her heart. She smiled again, placed her hand on Robb's arm, and nodded, "I will, Lord Jon."
Nodding with a smile on his face, Chen Hui turned around and talked to Duke Ed about some of his experiences on other continents, and no longer paid any attention to this "Rose of Highgarden".
This woman is a truly smart person, with a strong ability to adapt to the situation. She knows what to choose.
As for Robb, he was so excited that he was playing with the dagger in his hand, and probably didn't hear what Chen Hui said just now.
What a fool, he will probably be a poop-ear in the future.
When Chen Hui thought of Margaery's super PUA ability that made the two previous kings obey her, he felt a sense of silence for Robb's future.
It is estimated that Winterfell will most likely fall into the hands of this 'Rose of Highgarden' in the future.
There's no way. They're all simple-minded fools. There's not even a ruthless character like Cersei. Margaery can probably take care of them all in a few rounds.
Forget it, it’s none of my business anyway. Winterfell isn’t mine after all.
Since the "porcelain" business has just started, even the market in Essos is far from saturated, so people in the North have no idea what Chen Hui specifically did.
As for Arya, she was warned in advance that she would not speak publicly about Daenerys.
After all, whether it is Targaryen or the three dragons, it is too sensitive information.
After everyone had left, Chen Hui vaguely mentioned the matter of the Dragon Queen to the Duke and Duchess of Ed.
When the two learned that Chen Hui had helped Daenerys build up a formidable force in just a few months, Duke Eddard marveled at the thought and asked with some concern, "Jon, do you also want to fight for the Iron Throne?"
"Absolutely not interested." Chen Hui shrugged nonchalantly. "Anyway, no matter who sits on that iron chair, as long as I have a sword in hand, I can kill them at will. Doing things that are not difficult is meaningless. More advanced knowledge and secret techniques are what I pursue."
"Then why are you helping the Dragon Queen build her power?" Lord Eddard asked in confusion, "She will definitely come back to fight for the Iron Throne?"
"Yes." Chen Hui sighed softly, "He will also bring a three-headed dragon."
Chapter 46: Changing the map and heading to the Arctic Icefield
Chen Hui paused for a moment, staring into Duke Ed's eyes and said solemnly, "Uncle, have you ever thought about why a dragon, which had disappeared for over a hundred years, would suddenly appear in this era?"
Seeing Duke Ed's brow furrowed upon hearing this, Chen Hui smiled faintly and continued, "Or let's put it this way, if the Old Gods believed in by the North really exist, then what exactly is it that requires a dragon to deal with?"
"Like...winter is coming?"
"Impossible!" Duke Ed had completely understood what Chen Hui meant by this. He stood up from his seat and shook his head, saying, "The White Ghosts have disappeared for thousands of years. There's no way they'll appear again!"
"Yes, but the dragon disappeared for over a hundred years, yet it reappeared." Chen Hui said calmly, "Since the dragon can reappear, why can't the white ghost reappear? Hasn't someone already seen it?"
"He's just a madman! A madman who broke his oath!" Duke Eddard felt cold all over when he thought of the words spoken by the Night's Watchman who was beheaded by him personally before his death. He shook his head unwilling to accept the reality and said, "I can't believe the words of a madman!"
"Edward!" Hearing this, the Duchess beside him suddenly exclaimed, "Didn't the Night's Watch send a letter earlier? It said that a ranger's corpse, alive, attacked Commander Jeor Mormont. Could it be related to the White Walkers?"
"That's just a trick of the savages!" Ed kept shaking his head and muttering, "I've sent people to investigate, but they found nothing. It's just a trick!"
Knowing that Duke Eddard had actually already believed it a little, but was just unable to accept the reality for the time being, Chen Hui said nothing more. After thinking about it, he changed the subject and asked about the marriage between Sansa and Tommen.
As I said, in this world, there is no hatred that cannot be resolved.
Not to mention that the Stark family did not suffer heavy casualties this time as in the TV series, even the Bolton family, which had a blood feud with the Stark family for hundreds of years, reconciled easily without any difficulty.
Therefore, after receiving the sincerity from Duke Tywin, Duke and Duchess Eddard have agreed to continue the marriage with King's Landing.
There are only some details that need to be discussed with Chen Hui, after all, he is also one of the parties involved.
After some discussion, everyone agreed that Duchess Catelyn Tully would accompany Sansa Stark to King's Landing to complete the marriage.
Duke Eddard continued to stay in Winterfell. After all, something unpleasant had just happened, and everyone was bound to have some resentment in their hearts.
Before leaving, Chen Hui gave a Valyrian steel sword to Tyrion Lannister as a gift, and asked him to help pass it on to Lord Tywin to express his gratitude for marrying his granddaughter.
Tyrion was naturally very satisfied with this precious gift.
After the loss of the family heirloom sword 'Light Howl', Duke Tywin spent a lot of time and energy, but was unable to find another desired Varley steel sword as a family heirloom, and he always felt very regretful.
Now, this Varley steel sword is very suitable in both shape and style. I think Lord Tywin will be very happy.
Chen Hui thought, how could he not be happy? This sword was made according to the appearance of the 'Oath Keeper Sword' in the TV series.
Both the size and the decoration are almost identical, exactly in the style of Lord Tywin himself. It would be strange if he didn't like it.
The reason why Chen Hui specially made this sword was that he thought that what he said in King's Landing was a bit too arrogant. If he didn't take a step back, Duke Tywin would probably not be able to sleep well.
After all, it is likely that the marriage between the Wolf and Lion families will continue, so appropriate displays of goodwill are very necessary.
However, Chen Hui did not expect that Duke Tywin would be so generous this time and even gave him a princess as a wife. Therefore, Chen Hui could give the sword as a thank you gift, which also expressed his sincerity in willing to reconcile.
As for Sansa, who was about to become the new queen, Chen Hui also asked the 'Queen of Thorns' to give her a intensive training on how to survive in the palace.
In fact, Sansa is a person with great potential and a very high ceiling. She can be said to have the appearance of Lu and Wu.
It’s just that because I haven’t experienced the series of changes in the TV series, many skill trees have not been opened yet, so I can only rely on time to slowly gain experience.
But there is nothing to worry about. After all, she is the queen in the TV series, and she is a child of destiny with good luck.
After everyone in the group left, Chen Hui also had a rare period of leisure time. After all, many big surprises in the TV series had been avoided by him intentionally or unintentionally.
For example, due to the change in marriage partner and Joffrey's early abdication, the "Queen of Thorns" did not poison this uncontrollable creature to death.
As a result, Tyrion Lannister escaped the charge of regicide, and did not kill his father with his own hands because he was forced into a desperate situation.
It was precisely because Lord Tywin was still alive that the entire King's Landing was completely subdued by the powerful means of this old lion king.
A group of scoundrels like the Big Sparrow no longer have the opportunity to make trouble like in TV dramas, and they are all very honest.
Although this meant that Chen Hui's previous plan to counterbalance the Big Sparrow would be useless, Chen Hui said, "Isn't this a good thing? Less trouble is worse than more."
As for the father-son feud between Lord Tywin and Tyrion, Chen Hui could only say that he was powerless to do anything about it.
In order to prevent them from killing each other like in the TV series, and eventually letting Cersei, a low-profile version of Tywin, come to power and cause chaos, Chen Hui can only communicate with Tyrion through letters from time to time, pretending to have a deep friendship, hoping to make Duke Tywin more cautious.
After all, the reason why the relationship between this father and son is so strained is largely due to Duke Tywin's paranoia and stubbornness. What he did to Tyrion's first love in the TV series can only be described as outrageous.
If it weren't for the overall situation and the need for Duke Tywin to stabilize the situation, Chen Hui would have killed this old man without hesitation just for this reason.
After more than half a year of peace and tranquility, Sansa and Tommen, Robb and Margaery, Chen Hui and Myrcella all completed their wedding ceremonies without any unexpected incidents.
Unlike the other two couples, Chen Hui did not rush to consummate the marriage with Myrcella even though they were officially married, because he felt that Myrcella was still too young. Instead, he taught the blonde princess yoga, which was to lay a good foundation for their happy life in the future.
Who knew that this would actually spark a yoga craze in the North, and even 'Cat Aunt' Catelyn Tully became very interested in it.
I don’t know if this Duchess, who has already given birth to five children, is still young at heart and plans to give birth to more children for the Stark family.
All I can say is that Duke Ed is blessed.
I didn’t even give him a big red envelope. How stingy.
As for Daenerys, thanks to the rapidly developing commodity economy and the powerful army trained with the "Wu Mu Testament", everything went smoothly and she became more and more adept at handling government affairs.
As for the three dragons, according to Daenerys' letter, the largest one, Drogon, can barely carry her for a while, but as for the two smaller ones, it still can't do that, and it will probably take about half a year for them to be able to fly.
Just when Chen Hui thought that this peace would last until the final battle, Bran Stark suddenly found him.
He said that he had received a letter from a wizard named Brynden Rivers, hoping that Chen Hui could escort him to the outskirts of the Great Wall to complete the trial ceremony of the Three-Eyed Raven.
As for the reward, it is the last heirloom sword of the Targaryen family - the Dark Sister.
Chapter 47: The Fire-Kissed Girl Appears
Speaking of Valyrian steel weapons, Chen Hui now owns more than 30 pieces, with all kinds of lengths and styles; but except for the "Black Fire" and the dragon bone dagger, all of them are mass-produced versions that cannot ignite the divine flame.
Even Duke Ed's 'Ice' and Commander Bear's 'Long Claw' were no exception.
According to Chen Hui's analysis and speculation, the fine version of the Valyrian steel sword is probably only owned by the nobles of Valyria. All the others that have spread abroad are mass-produced versions, and there is not a single true fine product.
In other words, with Valyria now destroyed, the only three fine swords left in the world are probably the Blackfyre, the Dragonbone Dagger, and the Dark Sister.
They were all members of the Targaryen family, brought directly from the country on the eve of the destruction of Valyria.
The Targaryen family was once the symbol of Valyria's nobility.
Therefore, when Chen Hui heard that the wizard named Brynden Rivers would use his last fine sword as a reward, he was unsurprisingly moved.
Only one of the three exquisite swords is missing. If I don't get them all, it will be a bit unreasonable.
So, let's go.
He said a few words to his newlywed wife who was busy exchanging yoga experiences with 'Highgarden Rose', comforted the little wolf cub who was unhappy because he couldn't go with him, and said hello to the Ed couple who had become more and more obsessed with him recently.
After Chen Hui silently chanted a few "Amitabha" for the Duke's old waist, he led Bran Stark to the Wall, intending to go beyond the Wall to look for the three-eyed crow named Brynden Rivers.
Recalling the observation ability shown in the TV series, which can travel freely along the river of time, Chen Hui can only say that the Three-Eyed Raven is the biggest plug-in in this world, and its level of danger is even higher than that of the Night King.
At least, Chen Hui still doesn't know whether his preventive measure of closing the door tightly is useful or not, and how many of his secrets have been seen by those two hardcore peeping Toms in the future.
It is such an overwhelmingly powerful ability to face the unknown.
In other words, the Three-Eyed Raven is a weakling in terms of physique, otherwise he would be an absolutely invincible existence.
After riding at full speed to the Black Castle, Chen Hui took Bran Stark to meet Lord Jeor Mormont, the commander-in-chief of the Night's Watch.
Because Chen Hui did not become a Night's Watchman in this world, the commander-in-chief was seriously injured when the zombies attacked and had to stay in the fortress to recuperate. He did not personally lead his troops to the frontier like in the TV series.
As a result, he accidentally avoided death, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise.
After learning that the two were going to the Wall to do business, Lord Jeor Mormont asked them to investigate the recent large-scale gathering of the wildling army, and gave the family heirloom sword "Long Claw" to Chen Hui for self-defense.
Although he already had quite a few of these mass-produced Varley steel swords, Chen Hui did not refuse Old Xiong's kindness. After accepting the "Long Claw", he took Bran away.
After taking a look at the silver bear head inlaid on the hilt, Chen Hui, who had already crossed the Great Wall and arrived outside the Great Wall, secretly put the Zhenwu sword into the space where Bran couldn't see it, and hung the "Long Claw" around his waist.
After all, there is a high possibility of encountering White Walkers, and the Varley steel sword is much more useful than the swords in the martial arts world.
After asking Bran Stark, who looked curious, and learning that Brynden Rivers had not contacted him yet, Chen Hui decided to investigate the wildlings as agreed.
I don’t know if I will have another chance to meet the fire-kissed girl Ygritte who took Jon Snow’s virginity in the TV series.
