Chapter 55

Chapter 55 Competing for titles

"Ah~~~"

The drunken nobleman screamed like a slaughtering pig, which made those who heard it cry and heard it sad.

"Sir, have mercy on me, please have mercy on me! I know what it means, it's almost done, I understand~"

Being grasped by Arthur's iron hand, the drunken noble immediately begged for mercy.

He felt that the finger bones of his right hand had been shattered.

But this is not enough.

"Admit that you first touched the girl and wanted to blackmail her, and then promise not to cause trouble to the family again. I will let you go." Arthur demanded.

"I did it, I did it. I promise not to cause trouble, not to make trouble."

The drunken noble shouted repeatedly, fearing that Arthur was increasing his strength.

The pain in his right hand was so severe that he could agree to anything.

If someone pinches him again, even if he is asked to admit that he killed Mad King Aerys II, he will nod without hesitation.

Arthur let go and asked Jean to repeat what he just said.

Drunken nobles are not fools, and after this whole experience, they have almost sobered up.

So he repeated what he had just said and promised never to retaliate again.

It would be strange not to take revenge, the drunken noble thought in his heart.

Seeing that this man's attitude was quite sincere, Arthur waved his hand and asked him to leave.

The man's four followers also stumbled over, helped their master up, and helped him sit down in a corner to relax.

They can't beat anyone, so they can only suffer in silence.

"Thank you, thank you, Sir." The little girl also recovered, stood up and thanked Arthur repeatedly.

Although Arthur also enjoyed others' thanks, he pretended to be indifferent and said, "It's okay, it's just a little effort."

Seeing that the situation here had eased, the tavern owner and his wife came over cautiously. They first knelt down and apologized to the drunken noble, and then scolded their daughter severely, causing the latter to run to the kitchen in tears, and then walked to Arthur's table.

Front.

"Thank you for your help. You don't have to pay for today."

They whispered, fearing that the drunken nobles would hear them and get angry at them again.

Arthur was not very satisfied with the couple's attitude.

He is a very particular person, and he stood up for the little girl just because he disliked this ruffian noble, not for a free lunch.

There are many things that can be easily solved as long as one person stands up and says, "It's almost done."

"That's no need."

Arthur glanced at the unit price written on the wall, took out three silver deer, and paid for several people's meals in advance.

Along the way, the eldest son Patrick who was traveling with him had no idea of ​​paying. Desmond was both a veteran and the head coach of Riverrun, the lord's castle in the river. He always seemed to be giving away his money wherever he went.

Only Arthur, who couldn't stand it, paid every time.

It is not Arthur's character to bully these common people who make a living by selling food.

Although the tavern owner said he didn't need it, he still accepted it without giving any change.

The group finished eating quickly and prepared to get up and leave.

"Why, you want to run away after causing trouble in King's Landing." Several golden robes walked into the tavern, and the leading captain shouted.

The Golden Robes are King's Landing's garrison and are responsible for maintaining law and order.

"Do you think we are just living for a living?"

Isn't it? Arthur complained in his heart.

When the tavern patrons saw this, most of them ran away without even paying.

The remaining seven or eight people with quotas are also nobles, so they are just waiting to watch the excitement.

The fifth attendant of the drunken noble who had slipped away earlier came in behind the golden robe, looked at Arthur with a very stern expression, and taunted:

"Aren't you very good at hitting? In front of these gentlemen, try hitting us again!"

When the drunken nobleman saw the golden robe coming, he immediately gained confidence, stood up and shouted:

"Just a wild man who comes from nowhere dares to attack me. Gold Robe, let me capture them."

When the captain of the golden robe saw that the victim and the victim were both there, he sneered and said:

"What a coincidence, I just got it."

Then he turned his head and looked at the drunken noble flatteringly, "My lord, I'm sorry for not being able to protect you."

The following golden robes were ordered to catch Arthur and the others when they came over.

Arthur smiled helplessly and was about to start talking about fists.

These veteran-level golden robes are no match for him yet.

At this moment, Patrick stopped him and turned to the golden robe.

"Open your eyes and see what my family crest is."

As he spoke, he shook his collar to make the purple-backed silver eagle's Haijiang City logo on his collar more conspicuous.

The little soldiers in golden robes may not recognize this symbol, but they also know that it is a noble lord and cannot be touched by their group of big-headed soldiers.

"Didn't you say these people are civilians?" The captain opened his eyes wide and stared fiercely at the entourage who brought them here.

Because of this person's words, he initially believed that Arthur and his group were civilians. Even after he came in and saw their leaders dressed more luxuriously, he thought they were just businessmen.

I didn't expect that these people were also nobles.

The entourage thought to himself, if two groups of nobles were to fight, I'm afraid someone would be killed and you wouldn't show up.

But he had to give a proper answer, so he replied: "I didn't see it."

The captain said he was unlucky. He thought he could stand up for a noble gentleman and build a relationship, but he didn't expect that they were all noble men.

The one who hit him seemed to belong to the Earl family of Haijiang City.

This is difficult to do.

Zuo is the master, and he is also the master. Whoever judges right will offend the other party.

In desperation, he made peace first:

"I asked what kind of person dared to take action in King's Landing City. It turned out to be the lord of the Earl's family in Seaside City."

The drunken nobleman felt bad when he saw the change in attitude of the captain in gold robes, so he whispered to a follower beside him who was still able to move:

"Go and ask my cousin to come and ask him to bring more people. If you are late, you will suffer a big loss."

The entourage understood, and while everyone's eyes were focused on the golden-robed captain, he slipped away silently.

Seeing that he had a backup plan, the drunken noble became more confident again.

So he said with a strong attitude: "Why, you golden robes don't want to uphold justice? In addition, I want to settle that woman's first night. I don't care which earl's son you are."

The captain in the golden robe was surrounded by strangers. When hesitating, he suddenly remembered the experience given by his seniors and immediately had a solution.

"This is obvious. No one from our King's Landing garrison is present, and you all have your own explanations. It's hard to tell what's going on."

"Let's do this. You show your title and status. Whoever has the greater title and status will be justified."

The title represents the strength of the family, and the status represents the status of each person in the family.

This is the fairest way to deal with it.

When Patrick saw that the family crest of the drunken noble was not that of a big family, he said confidently:

"You gold robe is still reasonable. I am the first heir to the Earl of Seaside City, Patrick Merrister. Do you dare to reveal your identity?"

He raised his chin and looked at the drunken noble proudly.

Arthur also thought this method was good, so he stopped talking and sat on the bench watching the excitement.

He even took the time to take a sip of rice wine.
