Uba saw a group of female monks, several White Eagle soldiers, and two knights being tied up.
A priest and warrior who was proficient in Unsa writing gave Uba the letter on one of the female monks.
Having robbed England for so many years, Uba can speak and understand the local language, but cannot read or write.
He pretended to read it twice, and the soldier whispered, "This is a letter plotting to get rid of Oran. When we found this woman (Pepa) the day before yesterday, we found it on her body. She was carrying a lot of belongings. The men were thinking She is a noble, so she brought her here to inform you."
So close to the Viking stronghold, a beautiful Catholic noble suddenly appeared?
Uba stared at Pepa's face, feeling confused.
Torture is the fastest way to get answers.
Pepa kept her mouth shut, and good-looking women always received preferential treatment, which was borne by the knights and retinues around her.
They were all tortured.
These two knights were the list of the king's men "provided by Oran."
Oran distributed them all to the border and used them as cannon fodder, far away from the kingdom.
Pepa is here to bribe them.
The two men couldn't help but feel hurt, and said they were willing to reveal a big piece of information, and later told Pepa's identity as the princess.
After repeated cross-examination, Uba asked someone to point a soldering iron at Pepa.
If a hot iron block were pressed against a person's body, the pain would cause the person to faint in an instant.
There are two such hot stampings on her waist, both of which are the work of Ella.
"Let me go...let me go!"
Peppa begs for mercy.
Then when the rolling iron was close to his face, he finally spoke.
At this time, she was too nervous and leaked under her skirt...
Later, he was taken away by Uba and tortured overnight.
Uba gets shocking news!
It turns out that Northumbria is not stable, and a princess' revenge is being staged, and nobles who are dissatisfied with White Eagle gather together.
"You can gather a few hundred people at most. There are guard posts and wooden castles everywhere in the north. How are you going to break through the defense?"
"Take the river. Although many rivers have been destroyed by Oran or are covered with aquatic plants, the people I contacted have secretly cleared them. There is one that can be directly connected to the back mountain of King's Landing. If you move at night, you can travel ten miles in one night. For several miles, go through all the guard towers.”
"Aren't there countless warriors gathered in King's Landing? That is now the new royal capital."
"The monks and astrologers told Oran that the child would be the eldest son, and he would celebrate it with great fanfare and then let the traitor die."
】
"Then how many people are around him?"
"I don't know, but you can't break through the defense line he confidently established in the short term.
His heavy troops are all in the north, and the Viking leader he fears most is Yin Var.
When he was young, he was taken to the Vikings by Yinvar's men...
He was afraid that the dragon boat would land from the north and put all the main force there...let me go. "
"Don't be afraid. As long as you obey, I can let you go back safely. However, if you become mine, I will make you the mistress of the kingdom."
When Uba saw the scars on Pepa's body, Pepa told Uba that these were left by Olan and other men for her, so she was afraid of Olan and could only obey his orders.
"I am a Viking sea wolf ten times more powerful than the White Eagle!"
After Uba forcibly took possession of Pepa, he also forced her to drink animal blood and engraved runes on her body.
Pepa struggled with the pain, and finally the shieldmaiden's emblem was engraved on her chest.
"This picture is so beautiful. You can't look back. Become a believer in Odin and you will be saved!"
Pepa knelt at Uba's feet and said she would surrender to him.
Intimidated, Pepa completes the final step of the scene.
Oran asked himself to gather risky traitors and Vikings together, without specifying the method.
Because things are always changing.
From beginning to end, there was only one conspirator and executor of this plan.
Because if there was even one more person, the danger of this scene would be at least three times greater.
The rebels thought Oran was going to betray the country and they were going to King's Landing anyway.
Uba got Pepa, thought he was inciting her to rebel, and got the best solution to invade King's Landing from her.
In reality, Peppa wouldn't have been caught.
This was intentional on her part.
She has a warrant document from Oran and asks the riders to protect her team along the way.
She deliberately asked the leader of the riders to make a big fuss. If she encountered the Vikings, she would leave her alone and run away immediately to find support.
In this way, Pepa successfully entered the Viking tiger's mouth.
The treasure on her body was enough to confuse the Vikings into informing them.
Surrendering after being captured is easier to convince the Vikings than going to the Vikings on your own initiative.
The best outcome would be to fall into Uba's hands, but Halfdan would do too.
Let your enemies think they are in control, and they will act boldly.
The entire operation was Pape's own adventure.
If she fails at any point along the way,
For example, those who bribed rebels were killed, and those who were caught by the Vikings were killed.
Or he was finally killed by Uba and Halfdan.
For Oran, that's just one less hostage.
Oran is not at a loss.
As long as Ragnar doesn't go north, Oran and Mercia can suppress Halfdan's team.
For Pepa, this is her chance to get a new lease of life.
If she only hides in the manor and monastery arranged by Oran, once Oran loses, she will have nothing.
You have to control your own destiny.
When Uba walked out of the room, Pepa picked up half the bag of animal blood.
He didn't look like he was vomiting just now, so he took another big gulp.
What is a soldering iron?
Ella branded herself.
What is animal blood?
Ella had forced herself to drink something more disgusting.
After that night, Pepa continued to be arranged to bribe other people, but she was accompanied by Unsa soldiers who had defected to the Vikings. If she made any move, Uba's men would kill her with a sword.
When the news came that Oran's eldest son was about to be born.
Uba reached the moment of making a decision.
If the direct attack on King's Landing is successful, it will be as successful as the victory in the south.
It will be written into the martial arts biography of Sakya poetry.
He looked at the cronies around him who had been with him through life and death,
"I asked the priest to divine it, but I couldn't tell whether it was good or bad. What do you think?"
The confidants did not dare to answer the question rashly. Someone said, "Why don't you send someone to ask King Yinvar?"
The cross-sea contact lasted for at least twenty days, but Uba immediately rejected it.
But he was also determined. He said to his cronies, "Every time I take action, if I go with my brother, the enemy will always say, Yin Val's brother is here. This time, I want my brother to be proud of me..." After entering King's Landing, destroy this city."
...
At the same time, in King's Landing in the north, Oran's study room.
He was sewing as a gift of a hat for a child.
Malm sat in the chair next to him.
She looked at it with a smile. She knew that 99% of the baby hat in her husband's hands had been made by someone else.
When the last stitch went in, Olan said with satisfaction, "Okay, I'm exhausted. I've been doing this for more than a month."
Then he put the hat aside and stepped forward to listen to the child's heartbeat.
"What if it's not a boy?"
Malm knew how much Oran needed a boy heir.
"You just need to have a healthy pregnancy, it doesn't matter if you're male or female."
Malm watched the hourglass in the room reach the right time and told Oran that she could just go for a walk in the garden.
There is half an hour of tenderness every day.
She will not delay Oran any longer than this time.
She knew the Vikings were coming again and that others needed Oran more than she did.
The two kissed each other and parted.
When they came to the garden, Malm admired the flowers with the maids. Then the servant brought some cakes and said they were sent by Mrs. Adisha.
Someone looked wary, but Malm took a pastry and took a small bite.
"Delicious."
"Your Highness, we should let us test the poison first!"
"After I got pregnant, I finally knew what it was like to be a mother. In order to save Olan, Adisha lost something more important than her life. The child in my belly was of Olan's blood. She loved Olan so much, so what? Will it harm his child?
I can't bear the responsibility of the kingdom's mistress, I can't deal with those nobles and rumors,
But she is always helping you in Yewei County. Don't gossip anymore. If you have such idleness, you might as well think of more ways to help the poor people in the territory. "
Woof woof!
The two little hounds that Oran brought back from Galloway at that time have grown up a lot now.
Treats its master very docilely.
One circled around Malm.
Raina, who came from Galloway, looked at Malm's belly with envy.
After she came to King's Landing, she never slept with Oran again.
Here, she could only wait.
She secretly prayed that you could pass by her room tonight...
It was her first taste of human affairs, and the satisfaction she felt that night made her a little nostalgic...
Soon, as the little white dog ran, the garden was filled with laughter.
