Early the next morning.

When Morgan wakes up.

It was just dawn.

The previous two days of blizzards took away the bad weather from the east coast of Westeros.

When Morgan stepped out of the tent, he noticed golden clouds spreading from the horizon in the east.

There is no doubt that this is a sign that the light group is about to rise.

Today will be a very nice sunny day.

At this time, the entire huge camp had begun to get busy.

King's Landing is only one day away, and the huge team from King's Landing is eager to return home.

Everyone in Winterfell is also full of expectations for King's Landing, the capital of the Seven Kingdoms.

The three-month journey in the wild was really grueling.

Everyone wants to reach King's Landing quickly.

It is strange to say that with only one day left to travel from King's Landing, it was actually blocked by a rare snowstorm for two days.

It also happened that Prince Joffrey was bitten by the pet direwolf of the Duke of Winterfell's daughter.

Fortunately, the trip in the wild is finally coming to an end.

Although the atmosphere of the huge team on the road again is much duller than before.

It was just dawn.

Those who woke up were the servants and warriors.

The nobles would not get up until breakfast and everything was ready.

But today is the day to arrive at King's Landing, and everyone is much more active.

When the light group just appeared in the east.

The huge team embarked on the final journey.

"Creak..."

"Creak..."

The rhythmic sound of wheels rolling beside me kept coming.

In the center of the huge team, there was a large and exquisite carriage, followed by several heavily armed soldiers on both sides.

Morgan rode an orange "carrot" and also followed beside the exquisite horse body.

It seemed that the cruelty of yesterday's incident had a certain impact on the two Miss Starks.

In the past, Arya Stark, who often liked to lie by the carriage window and chatter to Morgan, was silent this time.

The car next to me was quiet.

Morgan is also happy to be at ease.

Time passed slowly like this.

When the light group in the sky climbed into the sky above everyone's heads.

In the distance, the huge city towering on the east coast began to become clearer.

It was just after noon.

The huge team finally reached the outskirts of King's Landing City.

A large number of poor people at the bottom cannot afford to live in King's Landing, so they can only live in small shacks outside the walls of King's Landing.

Countless shacks like this were built haphazardly by poor people at the bottom, without planning and in disorder.

Therefore, these places are not only densely populated, but the living environment is also dirty and messy, with sewage flowing across the street, garbage everywhere, and a stinky smell.

Of course, things aren't much better inside King's Landing.

The team had just approached the shanty towns outside King's Landing.

Waves of fishy and unpleasant smells were quickly blown through the entire huge team by the cold winter wind.

In the team, many people from King's Landing have long been accustomed to this.

Although everyone from Winterfell frowned, they didn't find it too strange.

In this era, no matter which large city, there are similar problems.

The larger the city, the more populous it is, and the more prosperous it is in large cities.

The middle of the huge team.

Arya Stark, who had been holding back in the carriage for a long time, just opened the curtains when she smelled a stinking smell coming from the front, and her little face immediately wrinkled up.

"Teacher Morgan, can we reach King's Landing today?"

Arya asked, looking at the tall and handsome man riding on horseback.

"Of course, we're almost there..."

Morgan looked away, looked at Arya and said.

"But why does King's Landing smell so bad? Also, look at those houses..."

Arya stretched out her head and looked at the numerous shacks getting closer and closer in front of her, turning her head again and asking.

"Nothing strange."

"This is just like your winter town outside Winterfell. It won't be strange if you think so."

Morgan continued to reply.

"Okay, but our winter towns are not as shabby or smelly as this one."

Arya continued to look out and mutter.

But Morgan ignored it this time.

At this time, the large team had entered the shanty area.

Such a large, luxurious and majestic team came in, and soon attracted a large number of people in simple clothes or patches on both sides of the only spacious avenue in the shantytown area. There were even many who were barefoot in the middle of winter and had dirty faces. A crowd of noisy children looked on.

The team advanced slowly.

Finally, in the afternoon.

The large team finally passed through the shanty town and arrived in front of the "Dragon Gate", one of the seven gates of King's Landing.

The capital garrison on the city wall opened the city gate early and waited respectfully on both sides of the road.

The huge team drove into the giant dragon gate at a constant speed.

Watching the tall city gate slowly close behind.

Morgan finally arrived at the center of Westeros, the capital of the Seven Kingdoms, "King's Landing."

The road is paved with gravel, and the spacious streets are lined with various shops, and people wearing various clothes come and go.

Minaret, bell tower, garden, square...

The environmental conditions in King's Landing are similar to other large cities Morgan has seen.

If you really want Morgan to tell the difference.

That is, the flow of people in King's Landing is denser, the streets are more prosperous, and the environment is worse.

Go straight ahead along the street where the Dragon Gate is located.

after an hour.

The huge caravan stopped on the bustling street in front of Aegon's High Hill.

Soon, the huge team was divided into two groups.

The larger one headed straight for the Red Keep, the royal castle on top of Aegon's high hill.

The other branch headed in the other direction of the busy street.

Heading towards the huge and majestic royal castle on Aegon Hill, it was King Robert Baratheon and Queen and Prince Joffrey.

The other team is the new Prime Minister Eddard Stark and his team from Winterfell.

Morgan followed the team on horseback into an area guarded by heavily armed soldiers, and soon entered a large area of ​​clean streets, shady trees, and exquisite buildings.

The environment here is clean and the scenery is beautiful, far different from the streets I have walked before.

Obviously, this should be the residence of the powerful people in King's Landing.

Soon, led by several attendants in extraordinary clothes.

Eddard Stark led the Winterfell team into a small and exquisite castle.

The large procession entered the castle, and a large group of male and female servants stood in front of the small castle gate and immediately bowed and saluted.

"This should be my next residence in King's Landing..."

Looking at the servants bowing and saluting not far away, Morgan thought to himself.

This long journey from Winterfell lasted for more than three months.

By this time everyone was exhausted.

Soon, under the busyness of many servants.

It didn't take long for everyone in the team to settle down.

This small castle certainly cannot be compared with Winterfell in terms of size.

So Ed Stark and his two daughters lived on the second floor.

The first floor is where Morgan's guards live.

When everything is settled.

It was almost dusk.

The castle attendants had prepared dinner.

First dinner in King's Landing.

Ed Stark greeted important members such as the female officer, secretary, Morgan, and guard captain Kelson who were brought from Winterfell this time, and sat together in the banquet restaurant on the second floor.

At the long banquet table, Arya Stark was a little unhappy, and Sansa Stark said nothing.

Ed Stark didn't care either, he just watched as several retainers kept giving orders.

Among the other four people who can serve at the table, except for Morgan, the other three have long been retainers of the Stark family.

After Ed Stark finished explaining the ladies and clerks, he looked at Morgan and was about to speak.

Suddenly there was a rush of footsteps outside the restaurant.

Immediately afterwards, Qiao Li, the deputy guard captain, appeared at the door of the restaurant.

"What's up?"

Ed Stark asked immediately.

"My lord, a servant suddenly arrived in the Red Keep. He said that Grand Maester Pycelle was going to hold a royal meeting, and he was respectfully inviting your lord to come."

Jory said quickly.

Ed Stark frowned and asked, "Now?"

Jory: "That's what they said."

Ed Stark: "Where are they?"

Jory: "It's down there."

After a moment of silence, Eddard Stark stood up and prepared to leave.

"Sir, it's so late, do you need me to accompany you?"

Morgan, who was suffering from eye problems, immediately spoke.

Reminded by Morgan, Ed Stark stopped and turned to look at Morgan with a smile: "It's not that dangerous yet. Morgan, just stay and look after the castle, as well as Arya and Sansa."

After speaking, Ed. Stark turned to captain Kelson and said, "Kelson, take some people with me."

"Yes, sir."

Kelson immediately stood up and strode downstairs behind Ed Stark.

Morgan sat back in his seat, briefly reviewing Ed Stark's expression in his mind and not caring.

It would be better not to let him follow. He still wants to go out at night.

Without saying a word, Morgan immediately picked up the knife and fork to deal with the rich food before getting up.

As soon as Lord Eddard Stark left.

There was no one at the table who could suppress the rebellious child Arya Stark.

Arya only took two bites before she dropped the fork in her hand, picked up the knife and stabbed it on the table.

"Miss, it's time for you to eat something..."

The female officer on the side immediately spoke when she saw this.

"I'm practicing."

Arya Stark replied immediately.

"What can I practice?"

Sansa Stark, who was sitting next to her sister, stopped holding the cutlery in her hands, looked at her sister and asked.

"Practice your sword skills and take revenge on the annoying prince."

After Arya finished speaking, everyone at the table immediately looked at Arya.

"Shut up Arya, don't say this nonsense."

The female officer was startled and immediately stopped her.

She watched Arya grow up. She had been a retainer of the Stark family for a long time. Her status was not low, and she was fully qualified to educate Arya and Sansa.

"He is a cowardly liar and he killed my friend. I will not let him go."

Arya continued with an angry expression.

"The butcher's apprentice was killed by hounds, not the prince."

Sansa Stark immediately answered.

Arya: "But he gave the order!"

Sansa: "You're an idiot."

"You are the one, you are still a big liar..."

After hearing this, Arya finally became angry. After holding it in for a day and night, she yelled at her sister: "If you hadn't lied, my friend would not have died!"

"enough!"

The female officer finally couldn't listen anymore and shouted.

at this time.

"Arya, if you can convince Lord Stark, I can teach you the sword skills you want..."

Morgan's voice suddenly sounded.

But he didn't finish his words.

"Mr. Morgan, I will tell the Duke truthfully."

The female officer who had just scolded Arya immediately turned to look at Morgan and said seriously.

Faced with the warning from the female officer, Morgan just shrugged and smiled without saying anything. He put the last piece of lamb chop on the plate into his mouth, chewed it and swallowed it. Then he put down the tableware, wiped his mouth with a napkin, stood up and left the banquet room.

"Arya, don't listen to him..."

Seeing Morgan's disappearing back, the female officer immediately looked at Arya and said: "You have to be a lady, you can't be a beast like a man..."

...

Aegon's High Hill.

The tallest building in the entire huge King's Landing City is the Royal Castle "Red Keep".

At this time, deep inside the Red Keep.

In a solemnly decorated hall.

When Eddard Stark was led into the hall by his attendants.

The four figures who were originally sitting in the center of the hall, in front of a delicate and heavy conference table, immediately stood up.

"Lord Stark, I've finally waited for you..."

"Renly, long time no see..."

"Lord Stark, you look a little tired. I wanted to hold the meeting another day, but..."

"But national affairs cannot be delayed..."

"I am Petyr Baelish, Lord Stark. I have wanted to meet you for a long time..."

"..."

After some pleasantries.

Ed Stark sat at the center of the conference table.

Beside him and at the opposite table sat the Kingdom's Minister of Justice: "Renly Baratheon";

Chancellor of the Exchequer: "Petyr Baelish (also known as "Littlefinger" because he comes from the Five Fingers Peninsula)";

Intelligence Chief: "Varys";

Grand Maester: "Pycelle";

Except for the absence of Sea Lord "Stannis Baratheon" and Captain of the Kingsguard "Barristan Selmy", as well as the frequently absent King Robert Baratheon.

All other members of the Royal Council are present.

Eddard Stark also began his first royal meeting in King's Landing.

"The tournament will be held in a month..."

"Immediately, the lance champion will be rewarded with 40,000 gold dragon coins, and the runner-up will be rewarded with 20,000 gold dragon coins..."

"The winner of the team close combat will be rewarded 20,000 yuan, and the champion of the archery competition will be rewarded 20,000 yuan..."

"The total bonus is 100,000 gold dragon coins..."

Eddard Stark put down the charter in his hand, looked up at Tyr Baelish, the Minister of Justice, and asked, "Can the treasury afford it?"

...

late at night.

Steel Street.

As one of the most prosperous and busiest streets in the entire King's Landing City.

Even late at night, the streets are still crowded with people.

At this time, a tall figure wearing a black robe suddenly walked out of the alleyway.

The tall figure walked upwards along the street, heading towards the top of Steel Street where the streets were more prosperous and the products were more luxurious and expensive.

Half an hour later.

Inside one of the most luxuriously decorated shops on Steel Street.

A tall figure in a black robe walked into the store, looked at the beautiful and enthusiastic clerk and asked directly: "Do you have dragon eggs for sale here?"
