Chapter 523 Mother

Several Starks obviously doubted for a moment about Iger's arrangement to dismantle them, but Caitlin comforted the family with a few words, followed the night watchman without hesitation, walked through a door and entered the next room.

This was originally the lounge for the guards of the arsenal. There were several single beds, and the unconscious Supreme Ruler of the North was lying on one of them, being cared for by a combination of a doctor and a soldier.Caitlin nervously ran to the bed and bent down to caress her son's face. After confirming that his skin was still warm and soft and his heartbeat was stable and strong, she was greatly relieved, and then touched the few minor wounds on his face with distress and the bandages on his body, and straightened up.

"When will he wake up?"

"Maybe before dark, maybe a week later, I don't dare to make a conclusion." The woman asked the doctor, but Iger answered quickly, "But there are many key points about the safety of the Stark family, the northern border and the land grant, and even the rise and fall. But I can't wait for him to wake up, I hope to discuss it with Madam immediately, so as to be prepared."

Already mentally prepared to lose a son, who would have thought that Robb survived in the end, the joy of regaining the loss filled her chest and abdomen, Caitlin turned around and looked at Iger again—not only did her face become angry , her cold eyes were obviously softened a lot. She didn't reply, but quietly waited for the next sentence.

"Due to the huge consumption of fighting against the White Walkers, coupled with the hasty preparations, the Land Grant Army has some shortages of food, grass, weapons and equipment. I hope that Winterfell can open the storage warehouse to alleviate this problem for us."

Although he said "hope", Iger used a declarative tone rather than an inquiry. This first item was just a ritual greeting because of his status as a "friend"...it was not a discussion with the Stark family.

And Kaitlyn clearly knows this too.

"I hope that after you leave, there will be enough leftovers for us to survive this harsh winter."

Iger nodded, finished the foreshadowing and entered the topic.

"Maester Luwin sent the Raven to Seven City last night. The northern army assembled here will come as soon as they get the news. There is only one day's journey away from Winterfell...whether it is three thousand, five thousand or Ten thousand, whether it is a field battle or defending the city, the Land Grant Army can easily defeat the attackers." He tried to keep his tone flat and not arrogant, "However, what I promised the Queen is to take back the Iron Throne for her, Instead of occupying or ruling the Stark lands, I have no intention of fighting your people and armies any longer, with bloodshed and casualties."

The declaration of victory is really arrogant, but he has the record of "taking Winterfell overnight" to increase his persuasiveness. Judging by his strange means of breaking the gate of Winterfell last night and bombarding the main castle today, Caitlin has no doubts: Even if the entire northern army rushed out of the city immediately, they would still be hitting stones with eggs.

She nodded: "I can personally go out of the city to negotiate when they arrive, and order the princes not to act rashly."

This is exactly what Iger wanted. He was a little worried that the Stark family would not cooperate. Use some bad methods to intimidate and intimidate... so as to go further and further on the road to becoming a villain.But now, after Mrs. Stark behaved better than he had imagined, he suddenly felt that the woman in front of him might actually be a better negotiating partner. Robb was unconscious and unable to manage the council, but it was a blessing in disguise for him.

The young wolf master is young and energetic, and may have a temper tantrum due to anger and unwillingness to communicate; but the latter, as a mature and experienced woman, should be able to calm down and negotiate.

Relieved, Iger continued to enjoy his victor's power: "In addition, I also hope that you can warn the princes that 'Roose Bolton has changed his flag', lest the Dreadfort army arrive outside the city and take advantage of them. Sneak attack, weakening the forces loyal to the Starks in the North."

Caitlin still nodded without hesitation: "No problem, I will convey it verbatim."

Iger is not an aboriginal resident of this world, and his cultural background and identity as a traverser doomed him to be unable to personally understand the feelings of the Starks at this moment: Winterfell has fallen into the hands of the Land Grant Army, not the last Stark in the castle. Kebran, has also joined the Night's Watch.Judging by any standard, the current situation is truly "the whole family is in his hands". For any feudal noble family in the past and present, this is the worst situation next to the complete destruction of the family.

Iger would never hurt Arya and her family no matter what, but the latter didn't know this. In this situation, backbone would never come out.

Mrs. Stark didn't understand that cooperation is the only way out because she has a clear mind, but as a mother, she upholds such a principle for the time being: no matter what conditions the other party proposes, she will fully agree to it without any bargaining—let alone some ordinary things. A winner will inevitably make a normal request, even if the other party has a crush on her half-mature mistress, she will obediently take off her clothes without saying a word, just begging the man to let her daughters go, don't be so savage Double, triple or even quadruple.

……

The negotiation went smoothly beyond imagination, but Iger couldn't keep up with the rhythm. He paused for two seconds before moving on to the next agenda.In order to prevent Caitlin from just nodding and actually not thinking at all, this time it is in the form of a question.

"Thank you for your understanding, but I don't know Madam, what are your plans for the follow-up?"

Subsequent arrangements?How can I think about this now!

Caitlin would prefer that Iger directly issue orders and make demands, but the whole family's life is in the hands of those in front of her, so she dare not perfunctory, so she can only use her brain and give what she thinks is the most appropriate answer: "The commander-in-chief once made a request to Robb. The northern border is neutral. My son was young and ignorant and rejected your kindness. I apologize to the Lord on his behalf. The Stark family will bear all the consequences of this stupid decision, pay the military expenses of the Land Grant Army's trip to the south, and compensate all of your subordinates. The care of the casualties and the cost of medical treatment will never record the loss of any personnel and property in Winterfell as a grudge. What do you think?"

"I feel your sincerity, ma'am." That's the truth, "but that's not the right answer—do you think that Earl Bolton bowed his knees to Queen Daenerys and swore allegiance because he was as grateful as the night watchman?" She rode a dragon to the north to help her, and she believed in her heart that she was the real monarch of the Seven Kingdoms? A joke!" Iger mercilessly vented his nostrils to express his disdain, "The Bolton family was also the overlord of one party, and it was finally settled after several disputes. Stark surrendered, and Nalois Bolton seized this opportunity to get close to the queen's thigh, but lied to Winterfell that he had raised troops to fight to protect Stark, and wanted to completely overthrow and destroy your family. To be the overlord of the Northern Territory, restore the glory of the "Red King" of the ancestors! Madam, you still have no sense of crisis at this time, and you still want to rush to eliminate the disaster by throwing some price to fool me away, and then continue to live happily To be your Lord of the North, the true king north of the Neck?"

You are so thick-skinned that you can beautify the castle that betrayed your friends and attacked the castle that once accepted him as a guest "in order to protect the owner of the castle". Only then did Dali suppress the urge to say the last sentence.She didn't believe Iger's statement about Bolton's defection at all... But who would have thought that the other party would repeatedly point it out and emphasize that it seemed to be true, which made her a little shaken.

However, it's one thing to ponder in her heart, and she still followed the other party's words on the surface and said, "Then, what advice does the Commander-in-Chief have?"

"I will be able to take back the Iron Throne for the Queen." Iger said in an unquestionable tone, "In the future, Roose Bolton will be the new guardian of the North after Roose Bolton has made meritorious service. However, Stark The family has ruled the northern region for a long time and has won the hearts of the people, with a solid foundation. Even if you are willing to live under the skinning family, the latter will be more afraid of you, and will always think about eradicating you completely to prevent future troubles... As a ruling family, you are in a dangerous situation In the position of no retreat, either the country is stable, or there is no place to die!"

Is this a threat?Caitlin didn't know how to answer for a while, so she could only pretend to be stupid: "Politics is not what a woman like me should think about. Your lord should say clearly how the Stark family should protect themselves in this wave!"

"It's very simple. Let's pretend that the battle last night never happened. When the Queen sets off to the south, the Stark family will also open the city to swear allegiance to her, and command the vassals to unreservedly support Your Majesty's battle to unify the Seven Kingdoms." .On the day of victory, with the innate advantage of a high starting point, no matter how hard Bolton fights, he will be doing meritorious service as a vassal of the Stark family, and there is absolutely no reason to replace the lord!"

Okay, okay, everything you say when you win makes sense, why don't I promise?

The words of agreement almost blurted out, but in the end Kaitlyn kept her mind on it - nodding and agreeing like a doll does not seem to have the slightest sincerity, even if it is only for acting like a little bit, it should take a little time.

"This... is a big matter, and I'm afraid I can't make the decision. I'll have to wait for Robb to wake up and consult with him before making a decision."

"That's natural." The patrols and messengers have already spread out to the north. No matter how urgent it is, at least the Queen and her Unsullied will not arrive today. The first half of the communication has been so smooth, and Iger doesn't want to push too hard: "If Robb can wake up before the Queen goes south, you'd better convince him... If not, please remember, Madam, the future and destiny of the Stark family is in your hands."

Chapter 524

The weather will not change with the turmoil of the situation. The fine snow flying in the sky lasted from the beginning to the end of the siege of Winterfell. Even after Iger took down the castle, there was a tendency to upgrade to the middle snow. The ice crystals were flying, Soon, another layer of white paint was painted on the messy Winterfell.

After sending someone to send both Robb and Caitlin back to the main castle, Iger went around the city and inspected the progress of the troops "exchanging venues" with the local residents and repairing the blasted city gate.After confirming that everything was proceeding according to plan, he found that he had a short moment of free time. After thinking about it for a while, he finally decided—to talk to Arya.

The land-grant and the northern border are equal rather than subordinate, and Iger has never sworn allegiance to any Stark. From a political and legal point of view, the so-called "betrayal of Stark" is actually not true.But...the fact is: when the outside world accuses Iger of being a "traitor", they usually think that he has violated the night watchman's neutrality norms and failed the Stark family's long-term support and help to him.

Judging from this aspect, scolding him for betraying the trust and friendship of the wolf family... It seems that it is not wrong.

Admitting that he is a bad person will obliterate the justice and legitimacy of his Southern Expedition. Of course, Iger will not do such a stupid thing, but this does not affect his self-knowledge at least - it is necessary to play word games to motivate his followers , but self-deception and unwillingness to face the truth is a taboo.In order to truly dispel the argument that they are traitors, in addition to becoming the winner in the end and keeping the members of the Stark family from being harmed by their actions as much as possible, how they will evaluate this matter in the future is also crucial.

The once close and good relationship between the two parties has dropped to a freezing point after this brief and rapid hostility and battle, but even if you don’t talk about emotional guilt, just consider reputation and interests... But if he wants to be in Westeros in the future If he keeps on messing around, he still hopes that the Stark family and the Northern Territory can continue to be his political resources and allies. He should spend some time and energy to restore their favorability towards him—not to restore it to the original state, but to restore it. A little bit is a little bit.

And to achieve this goal, the best way is to open a breakthrough from a certain Miss Stark who has slept in the same bed with me more than once and has already had a considerable degree of intimacy.

……

On the bridge connecting the main castle with the outside world, people come and go as usual, but now they have all become familiar faces in Houguan Town - Iger is not like in another timeline who only took half a boat and successfully attacked Winterfell Theon, the 5000 people he brought with him in the Southern Expedition included men and women, soldiers, artisans, and doctors... People with various skills are readily available, and it seems like a small society. We can proudly say that he is the least The bad thing is the manpower.

In order to make it look like Stark is still in charge when Daenerys arrives in Winterfell, Iger resettled the wolf family who surrendered back to the main castle, but to ensure that the situation was under his control, he added additional measures. Two measures were taken: [-]. To carry out a major blood change for the castle, replace all residents except the members of the Stark family with their own people, put on the coats and cloaks of the Stark family, and replace the original guards, stewards and Maid; Second, separate the Starks and arrange a room for each except the baby and the mother.

In this way, the Starks have no one to use, and they can't discuss plans with each other, and they can't get around the arsenal when they go in and out-the whole castle seems to be the most perfect place of house arrest. There is no risk.

As for the people who were replaced, they naturally rushed to the wintering town outside the city with the refugees.

The facilities and walls on the first floor of the main castle were damaged by the artillery projectiles that penetrated the door panel. He stood still and observed the destructive power of his trump card weapon for a few seconds before asking the person in charge where the second lady's room was, and walked calmly along the Stairs lead up to the living floors above.

As he was walking slowly and thinking about how to speak, a strong spearwife in a maid's costume came up to him: "Commander, the little girl who was put under my management just wanted me to pass this on to you, Otherwise, you will be in danger."

Talking to people with limited ability to describe is tiring, and Iger had to ask again: "Which little girl?"

"The little one." Probably feeling that her answer was too vague, Madam Spear added: "The hair looks like gold."

Isn't that clear? Iger shook his head: "That's Maeve——Maeve Snow. The role you play now is the maid of the Stark family. You can't even tell the name of the lady you serve! He exhorted solemnly before thinking about the business: "Where are the things?"

"Here it is." After being taught back and forth by the big stick and the carrot, the newly gifted land residents basically respected and feared Iger, the woman nodded vigorously, and handed him a ball of paper. "Maeve, I remember."

Iger waved the Spearwife away, opening the crumpled ball of paper.

The shape of the triangular piece of paper should be a corner torn from a book, with a few simple words written on it in delicate and neat handwriting: Arya-hidden-needle.

A nonsensical sentence, but Iger immediately understood the meaning - even if he didn't have the memory of the traveler about the plot, he watched Jon take the little sword named "Needle" from the blacksmith with his own eyes. Take it out and give it to his little sister.

Arya hid the little sword at this time, is it for the sense of security it brings, or is she trying to stab someone?

Myrcella is very smart, and she will never call the police indiscriminately, not to mention that Iger quickly recalled: Arya was a little unusually quiet at the surrender ceremony in the lobby of the arsenal... It turned out that she didn't change her temper, but Thinking about dealing with myself!

As for himself, he actually almost delivered it to his door.

Iger stopped in his tracks, drove away the fright that popped up, and thought about how to deal with it.

If it is purely safe, then it is natural to send a few soldiers to break into Arya's room, search carefully again to find out the sword and take it away, but what he has to do now is to restore his goodwill and regain his reputation. Appearing with such a posture?But if you let it go, swords don't have eyes...

After careful consideration, he crumpled up the paper and put it away, and decided to visit as planned.

It's not that she is not afraid of death, but since no members of the Stark family died in the siege, it is expected that Arya will not hate her to the extent that she will desperately meet her.And even if the guess is wrong, the breastplate under the black coat can greatly increase the error tolerance rate. What is he trying to wear the protective gear secretly?Not just to prevent such accidents from happening!

……

The main castle is not big, and the second lady's room is in the blink of an eye. After whispering some backup arrangements to the attendants at the door, Iger stepped forward and knocked on the door.

"Go away, don't bother me!"

The girl's violent roar came from behind the door, as if she mistook the knocker for someone else.Hearing that the direction of the sound was not hiding behind the door waiting for an opportunity to sneak attack, Iger was slightly relieved, and opened the door carefully.

The second young lady sat on the bed with her back to the door. When she heard the sound of the door opening, she turned her head and glanced. She was about to open her mouth to scold, but when she saw the person who came, she turned her head quickly, without saying a word, as if sullen... But Iger, who had already received the news, was still keenly aware: the girl quickly inserted her hand under the quilt, obviously holding something.

really?He tensed up more and more, and gently closed the door with his backhand, but instead of approaching hastily, he stood still and kept a distance: "Arya, we need to talk."

Chapter 525

Myrcella is also amazing.

Arya sighed in admiration in her heart, the palms holding the little sword under her hands were slightly sweating, and her heartbeat began to speed up: Iger, the bastard, really came to the door by himself as his little sister said!

Her ears and hairs stood up, and she imagined herself as a predator. While continuing to cover her left hand holding the sword with her body, the little wolf girl kept her breathing steady like a real wolf, avoiding the sound of panting from affecting her senses, and tried her best without looking back. Sensing every move of those who enter the door, so as to strike at the best time.

With a slight squeak, the man closed the door and said he wanted to talk to himself.Hehe, they have already entered Winterfell, and they still have the face to meet him!This guy, if he really thinks that he can do whatever he wants because he has slept with her, and he can get forgiveness for everything he does, then he is treating Ben Lang as a stupid dog!

Arya Stark and you have nothing to say, but Needle would be more than happy to open up and "talk" with you!

A very imposing line came out of his mind, but unfortunately he couldn't say it. The good news is that at least there are only two people left in the room now, and everything is developing as expected. Today, he has to pay the price for stupidity and betrayal!

"What's there to talk about, get out."

Although she said she was chasing people away, in fact Arya was secretly accumulating strength to prepare for the most critical blow.Based on her understanding of Iger, this guy will never be scolded by her and run away with a word, she will just stay and stick to him, trying to fool herself with words like she has done many times in the past.Last night, she was trained by her own guard captain to realize her own shortcomings: the huge power gap between girls and adult men is a huge gap that cannot be bridged by a little swordsmanship. Iger may not be as powerful as outsiders imagine, but after all, he is a game He was born as a cavalryman, and if he wanted to succeed in the assassination, the safest plan was to wait for him to approach unsuspectingly, and then suddenly attack him, stabbing him by surprise.

She even thought about how to tearfully bid farewell to the person she once liked after Yi Jian went out, but Iger stood by the door and continued talking several meters away: "Robb is fine, I suffered a small injury, I have already Send him back to his original room and arrange someone to take care of him."

No Stark was killed in this battle. This is the bottom line prerequisite for effective communication and the important confidence for Iger to dare to enter this room with bare hands. He has to throw this out before he dares to continue to approach.

"Humph."

Arya's heart moved when she heard the words, the hand holding the sword loosened, and then tightened again.

Maybe the eldest brother is really okay, but it doesn't change the fact that her castle is surrounded, breached and occupied by people she has always liked.Heartbreakers are more hateful than enemies. I don’t know how many loyal guards and retainers who watched him grow up were injured or killed in the scuffle last night, but the instigator thought that Robb was fine, so he could expose this matter?

Not only did she not calm down, she became even more angry.

"Do you dare to tell me how many people died in Winterfell last night!"

"Counting the civilians who were trampled to death in the chaos, it's less than a hundred." Iger slowly took a step in the direction of the girl, and quietly closed the distance by half a meter. More than 80 is indeed less than a hundred, but under the attack of the bomb, the number of wounded is actually far more than this, and finally the total number of casualties looks large, but it is obviously a bit out of date to be honest at this moment: "But Arya , you have to understand that no matter what the number is, it was Roose Bolton who killed them, not my land-grant soldiers."

"Do you dare to be shameless again?" Arya said angrily, her trembling voice could not help becoming sharper: "You ordered the attack on Winterfell, and then you still want to shirk responsibility by talking nonsense? I was blind before." Eye, I'm your captive and hostage now, but don't try to force me to pretend to believe your nonsense and get out of my room!"

"You don't have to believe it, but I have to finish." Seeing Arya's embarrassing appearance of being so angry that she still had to sit motionless by the bedside because she was holding the sword under the bed, Iger felt all kinds of feelings in his heart.It's a pity: this little girl who used to get into her bed now wants to kill him. The bitter thing is: it's basically all because of her unwillingness to be a night watchman at this point. Yes: As long as this girl still intends to wait until she walks over before doing anything, if she is vigilant and fails to fulfill her wish, she can only sit on the sword and wait.

People can't quarrel when they are sitting, so confronting each other from a distance just gave him the opportunity to use words to strip away the hostility and murderous desire accumulated in her heart little by little.

"According to the plan, I was supposed to be on an expedition outside the Great Wall at this time, chasing down the remaining ghosts outside the Great Wall. The reason why I appeared here but abandoned my duties was because one day not long ago, I was A secret envoy from the Dreadfort visited, and Earl Bolton sent someone to inform me: The Stark family pretended to agree to my request for neutrality in the north, but they were actually plotting secretly, planning to subvert my command of the legion when the main force of the Night Watchmen went out for an expedition. and dominion over the land grant, that I cannot make it back inside the Wall alive."

"Nonsense," interrupted Arya. "Robb never meant to kill you!"

"Oh, you never intended to kill me?" Iger said in a playful tone, letting go of his nervousness.A biting dog doesn't bark, and the little she-wolf who really wants to kill him won't quarrel with him. His strategy of boiling frogs in warm water has made some progress.He took another step closer and stood by the small round table in the room. "That means, at least the part where he intends to subvert the land-grant order while I'm leaving the Great Wall is true?"

The girl realized that she had slipped her tongue, and answered silently. At the same time, she suddenly realized one thing: not only Iger lied to everyone, but Robb also wanted to lie to him, but it didn't work out in the end.

"I didn't believe what I said at the time, and I rejected Bolton's proposal to join me in fighting the North and overthrowing the Stark family." Iger didn't dwell on this topic, he only spoke quickly and fluently about what he had made up temporarily. The half-truths and half-false stories do not seek to completely convince the girl at once, but as long as she hesitates a little, it can be regarded as achieving the goal: "Not only out of trust in Robb's integrity and honesty, but also Because, even if this is true, I have another way to deal with it, and I will never be caught without a fight. I don't need Bolton's support at all, and I don't intend to be used by him just like that."

Arya didn't make a sound, not because she had nothing to say, but because she realized that the quarrel was really exhausting and exhausting. If she kept shouting a few more times, she would lose the strength and precision to make the final fatal stab.

Instead of talking too much and making mistakes, it's better to let him talk nonsense. Anyway, even if this bastard talks about breaking the sky, I will kill him today!

Step by step, Iger stood at the head of the bed, less than two meters away from the sitting girl, and finally didn't dare to approach: "But then I suddenly realized that since the Bolton family was already disobedient, Then even without my cooperation, I will definitely plan my own tricks to deal with Stark. Maybe, taking advantage of Robb's army leading the army north to deal with the Queen and the Night Watchman, I will go around and raid the empty Winterfell, and after I succeed Afterwards, the north and the south will attack, defeating and destroying the Stark family in one fell swoop!"

Although it was nonsense, but while telling lies, Iger suddenly realized that he should have expected that Bolton would take other methods, but the opponents he had dealt with before: whether it was wildlings, strange ghosts or other night watchmen Commander, the level of scheming and insidiousness is really not enough. In addition, I am too confident in the results of my own information blockade and the speed of the lightning surprise attack in the south, which led to the predicament of having to storm Winterfell today.

"To be honest, what I really thought at the time was: If Bolton is lying, then I don't care if he is, and if Robb really overturns the previously agreed neutrality pledge and goes to war on the land grant, then the Dreadfort will take the opportunity to turn the tables in this case Rebellion, your brother has paid the price for his own dishonesty, no matter what consequences he suffers, he deserves it." Iger resisted his embarrassment, and changed his voice in a deep and firm tone: "But, this I don’t care about everyone in the castle, but one, who is different from anyone else, is my clever, cute, kind and brave little apprentice. No matter what happens, at least she, I can’t leave it alone!”

Her eyes were sour, tears were about to overflow, Arya held back her sobs and said, "Bah! If you don't attract the mad king's daughter, who in the north will have a second heart? It was your allegiance to her that moved Bo The idea of ​​the Dun family is that you came here aggressively to occupy Winterfell, killed people in the northern border, and broke into my house, and you still have the face to say it was because of me!"

If Daenerys hadn't been attracted, the Northern Territory might already be full of dead ghosts, and he, the commander-in-chief of the night watchman, would definitely be in danger. How could it be a mistake?

Iger intends to tell the girl that without the help of Daenerys, the night watchman would have been hard to win that battle, and he also wants to fool her with righteous words, saying that he supports the queen because she supports her to unify the Seven Kingdoms and build a powerful Westeros kingdom, It can ensure that the Night's Watch will receive strong support from the royal government when the White Walkers attack next time, not just from the north

But a bunch of nonsense swirled in his throat, and he finally swallowed it down.

Under her own repeated hints, the little she-wolf seems to have believed in Bolton's betrayal, but when she mentioned the mad king's daughter, she actually cared more about the fact that she came to fight with the Stark family for another woman. Enemy, by the way, he couldn't think of an excuse at this point.

"Arya, there are too many nasty words for me to say, but you see I am here now, with you instead of the queen, who do I care more about, can't you tell?"

In the end, the tears welled up and filled the eye sockets, but it was not because of being touched, but because of grievance: She really hoped that what Iger said was the truth, but a voice deep in her heart told her that this was just another stinking The rhetoric that the man concocted to stabilize her and bring his family back together.I don't know if he sensed the danger, but after Iger came a few steps away, he stood still and didn't come closer. He should have continued to wait for the best time to do it, but the fact is: if I let this guy go on talking, I can't bear it. Just trust him.

"With me, but for her!"

Arya screamed, and before the tears fell, she yanked the needle from under the quilt with a whoosh.

Chapter 526

I have to admit that the speed and decisiveness with which the girl draws the sword really startled Iger. He almost wanted to do what he thought after observing the layout of the room - jump back and retreat to the table, relying on the cover of the furniture to go around in circles to avoid Aiger. Leah's attacked again.

Fortunately, the most exciting situation didn't happen. Arya didn't chase after him with a sewing needle, but stood by the bed with a small sword pointed at him, tearing up but gritted her teeth and said: " Now take your followers and leave Winterfell without leaving, I believe you are doing this to protect me... If you can't do it, just shut up and get out of my room!"

The tone is very firm, the posture is also full, and the small sword shining with metallic luster is quite deterrent, but Iger, who is pointed at by the sewing needle, knows: the most dangerous moment has passed.

The moment Arya pulled out the sewing needle but didn't rush towards him, she had actually lost the determination to kill him. The scene looked ugly, but Iger's previous call had no suspense. As a result, the next step is to strike while the iron is hot and continue to press forward, tearing her last defense along the way.
