I have to say that Gun Niang’s idea is very good. There are people in the court who can do things easily.
Morgana was very efficient in doing things, and Gawain was soon brought to the king.
When Gawain stepped into the palace hall, the entire royal family was waiting for him.
"Salute to you, Your Majesty."
When Gawain saluted King Uther, there was no problem with his etiquette, but his tone was very frivolous, and his words did not contain the fear and respect that ordinary people have for royal power. He didn't even use modest words, such as "your loyal servant Gawain". Instead, there was an unspeakable irony in his words.
King Uther frowned. He didn't like this young man, he was too frivolous. Both his words and actions were far from the traditional chivalry that King Uther said he respected. However, as a king, King Uther still has the magnanimity that he should have. After all, Gawain is not a vassal under his command. Now is the time when knights from all over the world gather. He is unwilling and will not punish him for this trivial matter.
"Welcome to Camelot, Knight Gawain. I hope you will bring your name with you before greeting me next time."
King Uther just stabbed Gawain a little, and then asked the knight next to him to hand over Gawain's identity certificate. After the incident with Lancelot last time, Camelot became much stricter in this regard. But fortunately, there was no problem with Gawain's identity certificate. His father was indeed a knight from another country. Although he died in battle many years ago, Gawain inherited the title of knight. Although he did not have the king's fiefdom, he did Considered a member of the aristocratic class.
Gawain didn't pay attention to King Uther's sarcasm. Instead, he kept staring at the faces of the women in the hall. He didn't even let go of Morgana, but when he saw Kai standing next to Morgana, , immediately changed his expression, nodded to Kai, and stopped staring at Morgana.
Gawain naturally knew who saved his life, so he was not impudent in his treatment of Kai's fiancée. Although he was a bit dissolute, he was not heartless. But then, he began to stare at Gun Niang unscrupulously.
His bold appearance made Gun Niang so embarrassed that she didn't know where to put her hands. From time to time, he would give Gawain a hard look to tell him to be more honest.
Others didn't pay much attention to the flirting between the two of them, but two people noticed it.
One is Morgana. At first, Morgana was a little dissatisfied with Gawain's rudeness. Although she recognized Gawain's previous courageous actions, this did not mean that Gawain could be rude to her. But soon she discovered the situation of Gawain and Gun Niang.
This discovery made Morgana suddenly happy. The relationship between Morgana and Gun Niang is called best friends according to later generations. Although they are called master and servant, they are actually sisters. The relationship between the two is very good. Seeing that there seemed to be something going on between the two of them, Morgana was sincerely happy for Gun Niang.
Although Gawain is just a down-and-out knight, he still has the status of a noble, and at the same time he is handsome and has a sense of justice. He is definitely a very good match for Gun Niang.
Thinking of this, Morgana immediately fell in love with Wujiwu and felt that Gawain was pretty good.
But another person didn't think so, and that was Arthur. When Arthur saw Gun Niang and Gawain flirting with each other, he almost couldn't suppress his inner anger and challenged Gawain. Fortunately, both Kai and King Uther were there. Although Arthur was jealous, he did not dare to be presumptuous.
"Knight Gawain, may I know the reason why you came to Camelot?" King Uther asked Gawain's reason for coming to Camelot after checking Gawain's identity certificate.
"Knights' meeting, my majesty." Gawain was also very happy.
King Uther raised his eyebrows and asked expressionlessly: "Oh, do you know that Camelot's law stipulates that no contestant in the Knights Conference can duel in private, otherwise he will be punished Disqualified."
"Yes, I know." Gawain replied without any humility or condescension.
"Then I now announce that you have been disqualified from participating in the Knights Conference. Are you convinced?" King Uther did not like any behavior that violated the law. He always believed that the promulgation of laws was for people to abide by.
Gawain was mentally prepared for this. In fact, he didn't pay much attention to this knight's meeting. He came to the Knights Conference just to see the world. No matter what, as a knight, he likes to fight against high-level opponents. But he didn't care about other things. He didn't want to be a vassal of a certain king. He didn't have a good impression of the nobles and the king. He liked the wandering life and hated seeing the hypocrisy of those nobles.
But just when Gawain was about to accept King Uther's punishment, Morgana stood up.
"Your Majesty, I don't think this matter can be decided simply. Gawain's behavior did violate the law, but he had a reason for it, so he is eligible for forgiveness."
Morgana stood up, and no one else in the hall was surprised except Gawain. After all, the reason why Gawain was brought here was originally because of Morgana. Among them, Arthur and Kay know best that the biggest reason why Morgana speaks for Gawain is to get out of the house.
If it weren't for Gun Girl, would Morgana know who Gawain was?
Kai was noncommittal about this, and he didn't care what happened to Gawain. (Kai didn’t know that Gawain would become one of the most famous knights among the Knights of the Round Table in the future)
Arthur's thoughts were much more complicated. At first he agreed with Morgana's statement that Gawain was dueling to teach the nobles who molested his mother a lesson. On this point, Arthur agreed with both public and private matters, and even Abandoning some personal feelings, Arthur would like to applaud Gawain.
Secondly, because of Gawain's enthusiasm for Gawain, Arthur disliked Gawain very much, and even became hostile, so in his heart Arthur also hoped that this guy would disappear quickly.
King Uther frowned and asked, "Why do you say that?"
Next, Morgana told the whole story of Gawain's duel.
"Gwen is a citizen of Camelot. When she was hurt, the noble chivalry upheld by Knight Gawain stood up and stopped the atrocities. If such people are punished, how will others view us Camelot? Lot?"
I have to say, what Morgana said makes perfect sense. It also caught the weakness of King Uther, he was so proud of himself. It's really outrageous that you, as the king of Camelot, are going to punish others when they duel with others just to help the people of Camelot.
Those who didn't know better thought that King Uther was afraid of the noble who molested women.
King Uther thought for a while, looked at Kai, and asked for his opinion.
Kai didn't feel anything special, it was just a small thing. However, he felt that Morgana was right, so he agreed with Morgana's opinion.
"I think Morgana is right. No matter what, Gawain's original intention is to protect the people of Camelot."
King Uther nodded, and was just about to let the matter go, but he suddenly saw Arthur on the side and didn't know what he was thinking. King Uther thought Arthur had any opinions, so he asked: "Ah Se, what do you think?"
Arthur was startled by King Uther's sudden question.
"I think……"
When Arthur was talking, Gun Niang stared at Arthur. She didn't want Arthur to say anything that would disappoint her.
Feeling Gun Niang's eyes, Arthur had a bitter taste in his mouth. Even if he refused to admit it, he knew he was jealous. Fortunately, Arthur was also a principled person and did not choose to lie because of his inner discomfort.
"Morgana is right."
