Game of Thrones: Holy Flame King

Sansa Stark was awakened by a commotion.

She sat up from the bed in a daze, and saw that her younger sister Arya had already run to the back of the door, and was carefully opening a slit to look out.

"what happened?"

"I don't know." Arya said, "It's too dark to see anything clearly..."

Sansa climbed out of the bed, walked softly behind her sister, and looked out through the crack of the door.

The night was deep, and the courtyard was pitch black. Indeed, nothing could be seen, except for the sound of hurried footsteps outside the courtyard, as well as crying and scolding.

Sansa felt uneasy, and was about to speak when she saw the gate of the yard was slammed open, and then a group of soldiers in golden robes rushed in holding torches.

A sharp fear gripped Sansa's throat, making it hard for her to breathe.

Arya was also startled, but she reacted quickly, and immediately closed the door tightly, then grabbed her sister who was standing there like a puppet, and ran into the room.

Only then did Sansa come back to her senses, with infinite fear in her voice:

"Are they here to catch us?"

"I don't know." Arya got under the bed like a nimble mouse, and lifted a wooden cover, revealing the dark hole below, "Quick! Don't stand there stupidly, hide!"

Sansa trembled and got under the bed, and hid in the basement with her sister.

In order not to attract attention by emitting light, the two did not dare to light the candles in the basement, and could only embrace each other in the dark, praying silently.

The time seemed extremely long in the waiting.

It seems that a century has passed, and the two sisters who were frightened did not wait for the soldiers who came to search.

Instead, she heard Mrs. Shataya's cries faintly from above.

After listening for a while, the two realized that the group of gold-robed guards were not here to arrest the two of them, but to search for food.

"Damn it! We can't let them take away our food!" Arya was furious and wanted to crawl out.

"Don't go! You want to kill us!" Sansa hugged her sister tightly, not letting her go out.

"Let go! You idiot! All the food shops outside are closed. If the food is also taken away, we will starve to death!"

"That's better than being discovered by Lannister!"

The two sisters were in a stalemate for a while, and Sansa didn't let go until the movement outside gradually subsided.

Arya scrambled out at once.

At this time, the golden-cloaked guards had already left, and in the yard, Shataya's mother and daughter hugged each other and wept.

"Did they take all the food?" Arya asked.

"Yes, all of them were taken away. It is said that the food in King's Landing will be distributed uniformly. From now on, we can only go to the porridge shop to get a bowl of porridge every day."

"Damn Lannister! Damn old lion!" Arya kept cursing, "When will Caesar come in!"

Sansa hurried forward to cover her sister's mouth, for fear that she would continue to talk nonsense.

King's Landing is destined to be a sleepless city tonight.

After Duke Tywin returned, he took over the power as a matter of course, and ordered the confiscation of the whole city's grain for unified deployment.

In order to prevent the people from rebelling, the Red Fort not only dispatched guards in golden robes, but also mobilized tens of thousands of troops to patrol the streets.

This move naturally caused a lot of dissatisfaction and anger, but in front of the heavily armed army, the people of King's Landing could only choose to endure.

But patience has a limit.

Today's King's Landing has accumulated too much anger, like an extremely unstable volcano, on the verge of erupting.

At dawn the next day, the Stark sisters dressed in disguise, and went out to the nearest soup kitchen.

There was already an endless queue, all the people of King's Landing who came to wait for alms.

It was past noon when the two sisters received their share of porridge.

Tired and hungry, the two drank their share quickly, only to find that not only did they fail to fill their stomachs, but they became even hungrier.

Arya rolled her eyes and immediately suggested:

"Let's go to another soup kitchen and line up again!"

"Is this... alright?" Sansa hesitated.

"Why not, they can't remember everyone anyway. Hurry up!"

Sansa rubbed her flat belly, then nodded in agreement with her sister's plan.

The two walked through the Fisherman's Square and along the muddy streets.

It was just that when they passed by Aegon High Hill, they saw that countless dirty and unkempt people had already surrounded the red castle standing on the top of the high hill.

People's eyes were full of undisguised hatred.

It was a sea of ​​hungry people, a gloomy and oppressive rage.

"We want bread!" someone hissed.

"Bread! Bread! Bread!" the people kept shouting, voice after voice.

The majestic Red Castle is like an isolated island in the sea at this moment. Even if the iron gates are closed tightly, even if the city walls are tall, it will be difficult to stop this monstrous anger.

"We want bread!" Arya joined the crowd excitedly, "We want justice!"

The more she shouted, the more joyful she was, and then she began to carry on private matters: "Fucking bastard, get off the Iron Throne!"

Sansa was terrified, and hurriedly covered her sister's mouth.

Arya didn't care, and was still shouting: "Long live Your Majesty Caesar!"

This sentence has inexplicably received a lot of responses.

Thus, the sound of Long Live Caesar resounded throughout the Red Castle, which sounded extremely shocking.

However, it also touched Lannister's most sensitive nerve.

The troops on guard around got the order, began to show their weapons, and rushed towards the rioting crowd.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Arya immediately pulled Sansa and ran out.

Fortunately, the two stayed at the outermost edge and ran fast, so they were not stopped by soldiers.

Behind him came the sound of dense arrows piercing through the air, followed by screams and fighting.

Sansa was so frightened that she was trembling all over, she didn't even dare to look back.

The shrill horn sounded throughout the city, and the streets were full of panicked and angry people.

For a moment, it seemed that the whole King's Landing was boiling.

"Let's go home!" Sansa said hurriedly.

After running for a while, my sister suddenly stopped again. She was about to urge, but she heard Arya pointing ahead and saying:

"I remember it was a granary."

"Don't go!" Sansa held her younger sister's arm tightly.

Arya didn't struggle, because she wasn't stupid after all. At this time, the outside of the granary was crowded with hungry and angry people, desperately rushing in, trying to grab food.

But at the same time, troops are also gathering here, and a bloody massacre is about to begin.

If you rush in at this time, even if you can grab food, you may not be able to leave safely.

"Let me go." Sansa only wanted to go back.

Arya was not too reconciled: "Look again."

While speaking, the turbulent crowd in front had already been stained with blood, and the crazy people had already rushed into the granary, and the army no longer kept restraint, and began to kill.

Numerous gaps were easily torn through the crowd, and the unarmed people had no ability to resist in front of the heavily armed soldiers, and were swept away like dead leaves in a storm.

Blood and screams filled the air, making people chill.

Arya was also frightened, and finally stopped being stubborn, and obeyed her sister and started to stay away.

And at this moment, they saw a man carrying a grain bag rushing out of the encirclement, his face full of excitement.

But the next moment, this brilliance froze.

A sharp arrow pierced his neck.

The soldiers arrived later and hacked him to death a few more times.

However, when they were about to carry the food back, they found that the bag had a hole in it, and what flowed out of it was not the expected food.

Rather, sand.
