Game of Thrones, Year 298, Red Fork River in the Hejian Land, in a small castle somewhere.
"Sir, your uncle wishes to see you."
Suddenly, a deep male voice came to Li Hao's ears.
Sir, when did I, a standard otaku of the 21st century, become a medieval lord? Li Hao ignored it and continued to dream.
But the owner of the voice refused to give up: "Sir, if you don't do it again, Yu Le will take away all the golden dragons in the family."
And along with the sound came a burst of pushing.
Li Hao then opened his eyes, but his mind was still groggy. Soon, he was awakened by the scene in front of him.
A middle-aged man in a gray robe was standing in front of him. The room was dimly lit, and the simple wooden door and gray stone walls clearly told Li Hao that this was not his nest.
When the middle-aged man in gray robe saw the lord wake up, he immediately said respectfully: "Your uncle Yule said that he was going to King's Landing to participate in Ned Stark's tourney. There were many difficulties on the way, so he asked you for a hundred gold dragons.
."
Words such as middle-aged man in gray robe, uncle Yuler, Ned Stark, and golden dragon stimulated Li Hao's nerves, and large chunks of memories flooded into his mind.
After a moment, Li Hao, after digesting his memory, knew that he had traveled through time.
Traveled to the famous world of Game of Thrones.
The original owner's name is Arthur Bracken, a small lord living along the Red Fork River in the Riverlands. He is currently twenty-two years old. Apart from being handsome and tall, he has no other advantages.
Although in the world of Game of Thrones, this may be a small character who will receive lunch if he cannot survive one episode, but for Li Hao, a young man in the 21st century, this is already a very good start.
In his previous life, he received nine years of compulsory education, went to an ordinary high school, then spent his college career in an ordinary way, found a job with a monthly salary of 6,000, and started his fishing career.
Of course, there is always something to spice up the ordinary life, and this thing is horse riding and slashing.
Li Hao would ride and slash when he was at work, when he was off duty, and even when he was commuting to and from get off work.
He loves riding and slashing so much. In his previous life, he played a riding and slashing game.
To make great achievements, just be there!
While he was thinking about it, a blue light curtain appeared in front of Li Hao.

[Skill points: 5]
[Weapon proficiency: 74 for one-handed weapons, 72 for two-handed weapons, 77 for pole weapons, 31 for bows and arrows, 31 for crossbows, and 31 for throwing]
[Weapon Points: 10]
"Isn't this the data panel of Qi Ke?"
Li Hao was overjoyed, and the benefits of the time traveler had indeed come.
After considering going to war for several months, he did not hesitate to add three attribute points to strength and one attribute point to agility.
The Chimei-ryu rules the world, but now that I'm obviously in existential crisis, I'd better live in the Riki-sensing style.
There are three skill points to strengthen the attack, one to strengthen the bow, and one to strengthen the throwing.
All ten weapon points are added to two-handed weapons, because Arthur has an ancestral two-handed sword.
After adding points with his mind, Li Hao, also known as Arthur, put away the data panel, stood up and took off his nightgown, preparing to change into casual clothes to meet this uncle.
One hundred golden dragons is not a small amount.
I met an uncle who asked for so much money just after time travel. What is going on!
Amber—the name of the middle-aged man in gray robe, the steward of the small castle, Arthur had just found it from the depths of his memory—seeing this, he quickly picked up a robe from the clothes rack nearby and helped the lord get dressed.
As Arthur was getting dressed, he was thinking about his next plan.
If I remember correctly, the Riverlands will soon usher in the turmoil of the War of Five Kings.
In fact, before the War of the Five Kings broke out, after the little devil Tyrion Lannister was captured by Catelyn Stark in the valley, Tywin Lannister sent troops to the river to conquer the Fish Family and its feudal lord.
I surrender.
Along the Red Fork River, a small force led by Gregor Clegane, the strongest man in Westeros, was plundering the area.
The Bracken family that Arthur belongs to is actually called the Bracken of Moulin Rouge, and is a branch of the Bracken family, the top noble family in the river area.
Just like the Stark in Kahor City is called Karstark, his Bracken is of little value.
The family's territory consists of nine nearby villages, a small castle, and a red mill.
There are only thirty-five soldiers in the entire family. They can bully the nearby villagers, but if they really go to the battlefield, they may not even be able to defeat the Frey family soldiers and the bandits wandering around the countryside.
In other words, Bracken of the Moulin Rouge does not have much strength to resist the plunder of the Magic Mountain and the chaos caused by the War of the Five Kings.
If Arthur traveled to the Vale, Dorne or the Reach, he could be his own lord. After all, the War of the Five Kings has nothing to do with him.
But unfortunately, the land he landed on happened to be the Riverlands, known as "the footcloth of the Seven Kingdoms", and the lords of the Fish family, the Tully family, were even more weak and incompetent.
If Arthur doesn't think about the future as soon as possible, he may soon become an innocent soul under the magic mountain sword.
Fortunately, the original owner's family was pretty good. He had accumulated enough food to last for several years, and his family savings amounted to seven hundred gold dragons.
It is better to sneak out as soon as possible, sneak to places without war such as Seaside City, King's Landing or Seagull Town, and live happily for a while with a few hundred golden dragons, and then come back when the War of the Five Kings ends and the riverlands regain stability.
Seven hundred gold dragons are a considerable amount of wealth. You must know that the fat woman from the Frey family that old Roose Bolton married was only worth more than a hundred pounds of silver. If she exchanged it for a gold dragon, it would be more than a hundred gold dragons.
.
After getting dressed, Arthur made up his mind, walked out of the room with his head held high, and walked towards the hall.
Amber followed closely behind.
On the way, Arthur gathered four guards standing guard and ordered them to find bows and arrows and prepare for battle.
The guards received the order and walked quickly towards the weapons room.
The small castle is not big. When Arthur and Amber walked to the entrance of the hall, four guards came back with another four soldiers on duty, and brought eight sets of bows and arrows.
The two-handed sword passed down by the Bracken family was also carried over, and Amber in gray robe held it for Arthur.
After ordering eight guards to wait outside the door, Arthur and Amber walked into the hall.
Even in the daytime, the stone castle hall is equally dark.
On the lord's chair facing the door and leaning against the wall, a middle-aged man dressed as a knight was half-lying and half-reclining, with one foot pretending to be bold and resting on the edge of the chair.
Little did he know that this made him look like a country gangster who had stolen a knight's costume, not what he wanted to pretend to be.
Arthur recognized at a glance that this was his uncle Jules.
Like most second sons, the education Yule received from childhood was fighting and obedience. His position is to assist his elder brothers in fighting talent.
But after the original owner, Yule's eldest nephew, was born, Yule was forced to leave here, wandering for twenty-two years, and then came back to attend his brother's funeral.
The wandering time was longer than the time he spent in this castle, which also profoundly changed Yule's character.
It’s delicious, lazy to cook, just muddle along, and enjoy yourself in the moment!
After attending his brother's funeral, Jules stayed at his nephew's house. He would eat whatever Arthur used, and he would eat whatever Arthur ate.
The original owner a few months ago still respected this uncle very much. After all, he was the only close relative.
And Yuler has been wandering around the continent of Westeros and Essos for more than twenty years. What he has experienced and seen along the way can be boasted about for several days without repeating it.
This is exactly what the original owner who grew up in a small castle longed for and lacked.
The two hit it off immediately, and their good relationship was as good as the sweet.
But as time went on, Yule's inferior nature was exposed.
Love drinking, loving expensive clothes, and loving going shopping in beauty markets!
And all of these things cost money.
When Yule first asked his nephew for money, the original owner was still able to give him some, but after gradually getting to know his uncle's character, the upright original owner also began to dislike him.
The despised uncle also felt his nephew's dislike and was ready to get some big money and run away.
That's how the current scene happened.
"Hey! Isn't this my nephew Arthur? Give me a hundred gold dragons, and I will go to King's Landing to participate in the tournament to bring some glory to the Bracken family."
When Yule saw Arthur and Amber walking in, he pretended to be casual and said.
It seems that a hundred golden dragons are as insignificant as a dinner.
But while he was clearly looking at the window with a slanted face, his eyes were glancing at Arthur and Amber, betraying his inner feelings.
He is not as free and easy as he pretends to be.
"Uncle Yule, do you think we are Lannister with a gold mine? Take out a hundred gold dragons as soon as you say so?" Arthur, who was standing at the door, asked.
One Hundred Golden Dragons is the product of the Bracken family of Moulin Rouge for more than ten years.
Yule put his legs on the edge of the chair on the ground and said, "So you don't want to give money?"
Arthur recalled Uncle Yule's various behaviors after attending the funeral for the original owner's father, and decided not to give out a single copper coin. "If I don't have any money, what can I give it to? Besides, I won't give it to you if I have it."
Yu Le looked up and down at his nephew in casual clothes and Amber in gray robes, and then glanced at his neatly dressed plate armor, his confidence greatly increased.
He then stood up in a hurry, pressed the hilt of the sword with his right hand, and shouted with an inward look: "Are you going to test whether my sword is sharp?"
Seeing this, Amber took a step forward, protected her lord, and asked cautiously: "What do you want to do?"
Arthur did not get used to the temper of his uncle who had become a gangster. He ordered the guard outside the door: "Come in and prepare to shoot arrows."
Eight guards with hunting bows were ordered to enter the hall, and then according to the Lord's instructions, they unfurled their bows and nocked arrows.
Arthur chuckled: "Uncle Yule, do you want to test whether my arrow is fast enough?"
Yule's expression changed when he saw the eight soldiers coming in. After hearing Arthur's words, he forced an ugly smile, opened his hands, and walked slowly over as if he wanted to hug them.
"Oh, my dear nephew, what are you doing? We are all relatives, and you act like I am a rogue bandit."
After a pause, Yule continued to play the emotional card: "Look, after your father passed away, I didn't travel thousands of miles to mourn. Uncle was just joking with you. As for such a big reaction?"
If it were the original owner, he might forgive his uncle.
After all, the Bracken family in Moulin Rouge is very small, with only two members, Arthur and Jules.
But now Arthur would not be soft-hearted, and sneered: "Stop, take off your sword."
Yule stood with an ugly smile on his face and shrugged helplessly, as if this was the trouble started by his unreasonable nephew.
Seeing that Yule was acting like a veteran, Arthur ordered the guards around him to fire an arrow.
Yule jumped in fright, and the arrow hit the wooden floor under his feet.
Seeing that his nephew was serious, he looked uncertain, slowly took off his sword and put it aside, and then raised his hands at Arthur's signal.
Amber hurried over and took away Yule's sword.
Seeing that the situation was under control, Arthur ordered the guards to put down their bows and arrows.
After all, stretching the bow for a long time is very tiring.
Then the young lord raised his handsome chin and said to Le: "I give you two choices. One is to join my guard and patrol every day. I will give you a monthly salary of five silver deer."
"Second, take off this plate armor, put on the tattered clothes you wore a few months ago, and get out."
The beautiful plate armor on Yule's body was bought with money from the original owner. It was worth three gold dragons. This was still the price in the Riverlands where the handicraft industry was extremely developed.
If it were in King's Landing, the price of this plate armor would be double. If it were in the Five Fingers Peninsula or the northern border where houses are scarce, this outfit might consume the savings of a small noble family.
Yu Le was furious when he heard this, "Five silver deer? What do you think I am? A soldier who can be called around?"
Arthur motioned to the guards around him to unfurl their bows and arrows again, and then said slowly: "Isn't it true? Look at your appearance when you first arrived. The people of the Alpine clans in the Arryn Valley are all more luxuriously dressed than you."
Amber, who was beside Yu Le, also picked up his sword and pointed it at the greedy old man.
The fake knight in plate armor rolled his eyes, glanced at the serious Arthur and the guards with their bows, and then glanced at Amber behind him.
Although Yule didn't know why his nephew's character had become so tough, his more than 20 years of travel experience told him that it was best to keep his head down now.
"Look, you are all members of the family. Why are you being so unfriendly? Aren't you just standing guard and patrolling? Uncle, I can still do it." After covering up his guilty conscience with an awkward smile, Yule lowered his head again.
If he couldn't get the money and his plate armor was taken away, there would be no need for Juleda to go out and wander.
Although the life in my nephew's family may be a bit harsh, it is much better than the situation of being hungry for three days and having to worry about one's own life.
Not to mention staying here, you can also go to the Beauty Market every few days to visit Goulan.
Normal people know how to choose.
Of course, Arthur's behavior today also made Yule think highly of his nephew.
If he can be so cruel to his own uncle, he will definitely do well in the future.
Arthur was very satisfied with Le's knowledge. After nodding, he sent the eight soldiers away.
Seeing that Jules, who had turned from uncle to guard, was still stunned on the spot, Arthur said to Amber who was sheathing his sword:
"Arrange some things for this soldier, and also let him put on ordinary chain mail."
Amber said yes.
Yu Le's eyes widened, obviously he was not very willing, but the situation was stronger than others, so he had no choice but to obey his nephew's arrangement.
Just as the two were walking out of the hall, a guard hurried in and shouted:
"Sir, the village chief of He'an Village has brought several villagers to ask for an audience."
