94 The bottom of the valley
Westeros, valleys, eagle nest city.
This castle located in the Mingyue Mountains looks like a bright white star in the sky. Seven white towers stand quietly at the top of the mountain range, bathed in the brilliance of the silver moon, appearing pure and elegant.
The surging waterfall poured down another mountain not far from the castle. The sound of the rushing water sounded quite clear. Unfortunately, after being introduced into the Eagle Nest City, it still could not clean up some of the long-standing decay and dirty things.
The moon is bright and the stars are sparse, and the mountains and forests are silent. At this moment, the hall of the Lord's Castle of Eagle Nest is quite noisy.
"She hurts me, mom, she hurts me!" A crazy and tender voice sounded sharply, and it sounded like the master seemed to be full of pain.
After his words fell, a slightly hoarse female voice spoke to comfort her.
"Good Robin, good baby, it doesn't hurt, it's just a piece of skin that hasn't bleed yet..."
"I feel so painful! Mom, she hurts me, she really hurts me!!" The childlike voice still screamed and repeated the sentence, his tone was crying.
In fact, he is indeed a child.
Although he was sitting in the hall master's seat silently proving that he was the owner of this place, this still could not hide his thin body and tender face.
He has brown hair and gray eyes, and his facial features look quite cute. He just wrinkled his little nose, but his face looks very pathological.
The fingers that had been broken due to repairing their nails were sucked by the red-haired woman holding her behind her back and sucked in her mouth. The painful expression on the brown-haired boy's face gradually faded away, and he began to mutter: "I want her to fly, let her fly, mom, let her fly."
Looking at the young maid who was kneeling under the lord's chair, he turned his head to look at his mother and begged: "Can we let her fly? I haven't seen anyone fly in a long time."
These words made Madame Lessa hesitate, and her eyes flashed when she turned to the maid below.
"Madam, please spare me!"
After she looked over, the maid wrapped in a headscarf was shiver and her body kneeling on the ground seemed increasingly humble.
"Give me your best friend, Madam, I shouldn't have hurt the Duke, I will never dare to do it again!"
"Please beside me this time, I will be careful in the future..."
This made Madame Lesa's brows slightly slow, and the brown-haired boy in her arms also asked hesitantly.
"Mom, isn't a child without a mother very pitiful?"
"Yes, he will not have milk to eat and no one to take care of, and he will not live long."
"Then let's let them fly together? So they can be together."
"Nothing." Madam Lesha glared at her son with a rare reproach, then looked at the maid below, suddenly thought of something, frowned and asked, "Aya, you have been with us for three years, why haven't I heard of you getting married?"
"I...I..." The maid stuttered a little when she heard this, looked up at the red-haired woman with a little dodging eyes. Finally, she squeezed out a sentence with embarrassment: "I'm not married."
These words made Madame Lessa, whose face was calming, suddenly change her color.
"Bad child!?How old is he?"
"One, one year old." The maid replied tremblingly.
"One year...that's not long before we return to Eagle's Nest from King's Landing." She murmured, anger emerging from her face.
"Okay, I remembered that you specifically asked to be transferred to the kitchen to work at that time. So that's it... You are the bastard born in Eagle Nest City!?"
The maid lowered her head and trembled, not daring to respond. However, Madam Laisha, who was sitting in the main seat, became even more annoyed.
"Damn bitch, you dare to give birth to an illegitimate child in Eagle Nest City and people!? You are blasphemy, you have insulted our entire Ailin family!"
"I deserve to die, madam, please forgive me..." The maid knelt on the ground crying, her words full of sobs.
"I regret it too. I shouldn't have done that, but...but...I want a baby..."
Her words were filled with misery, but this time the red-haired woman did not hesitate at all. She stared at her for a while, her anger turned cold, and finally said in a hard tone: "For the sake of your service for so many years, I allow you to take a last look at your child, and the Duke just said that he was punishing you."
After this, the child in her arms began to cheer and clap his hands, shouting one after another.
"Okay, okay, fly, I want to see her fly, hurry up, hurry up!"
Under his continuous urging, a knight standing below looked at the maid kneeling in the hall with sympathy, then asked for the location and left.
The maid in the client seemed to have been appointed and only sobbed, kneeling on the ground looked pitiful.
However, the red-haired woman above kept looking at her coldly, without any sympathy. The child in her arms was full of anticipation for the big scene that was about to appear, sitting there twisting and twisting, her little face excited.
Soon after, the sleeping baby was brought in and sent to the maid's arms.
"My baby..." Seeing this, the maid wiped her tears, slumped on the ground and hugged the child and showed a smile, but then she buried her head in the child's cradle and started crying loudly.
The knight stood beside her, and the mother and son sat in the lord's position and watched quietly. After a while, the red-haired woman nodded to the knight.
So the knight, who wrapped his whole body in his armor, grabbed the maid's arm and stepped to the side of the hall, in front of the white round door covering the ground in the center of two marble pillars.
With both hands, I opened the moon gate made of fishweed wood, and the violent wind suddenly poured into the hall, accompanied by several sparse snowflakes.
"Give me the child." The knight said in a muffled voice when he looked at the maid.
However, the maid did not do it honestly this time.
Looking at the vast void under the Yuemen and the hazy and short castle under the void, the maid who had been obedient before trembled all over, and the child in her arms hugged her even tighter.
"No, no, don't push me down, I can't die, what should I do if my child dies?" she murmured, stepping backwards.
However, the knight could not let her resist. With a pull, he pulled the pretty young maid over, and then reached out to the child in his arms.
The maid struggled hard about this, with a sad and angry expression and a feeling of reluctance.
However, at this moment, with the two parties tearing each other, the baby in her arms suddenly fell off, and then under the suction of air, she suddenly penetrated the moon gate and came out of the hall!
The noisy situation became quiet, and then the screams suddenly rang out.
"No--!"
"My child, my child!" The maid hurriedly reached out to the cradle that was far away in the air, as if she wanted to retrieve it, but unfortunately, the only thing that had penetrated through her fingers was the endless cold wind.
"My child! That's my child!" The maid who was grabbed by the knight's arm was howling pale, full of despair and regret.
"Why should I struggle with the Virgin? I should accept my fate."
"My child, that's my child..."
"He was just born, why? Why is this happening?"
"Why! Why-!!"
...
As the pain screamed, the maid who was pulled struggled violently again, and her face looked very crazy.
The little boy on the lord's chair had curiously opened his eyes to watch all this, but after the scream sounded, he made him cover his head suddenly and shouted: "She is so noisy, so noisy! Mom, I can't stand it anymore, I can't stand it anymore-!"
Screaming, the boy seemed to be more painful than the maid, and finally he even began to tremble all over and foamed at the lord's chair.
Epilepsy is a crime.
"Baby, you-"Hold her weak son, Madame Lessa's face changed and she hurriedly ordered the servants beside her to call the bachelor. At the same time, she didn't care about the sympathy that had just emerged from the fall of the child, and shouted at the knight below with a hatred: "Kill her! Don't let her call again, hurry up!"
The knight nodded as he spoke, and covered the maid's head that was punching and kicking in his arms with both hands and twisted it hard, so the crying sound came to an abrupt end.
The hall was thus in silence, and only the little duke's faint twitching sound was still circulating.
Looking at the two mother and son hugging each other on the lord's seat, the knight whispered, "Madam, do you need to throw her down from the Moon Gate too?"
"No, the garden was short of fertilizer, so it was buried there." Madam Lessa said casually without raising her head, focusing all her attention on her trembling son in her arms, her face full of distress.
"Good baby, good Robin, it's okay, everything is fine..."
The knight who received the order said nothing, closed the moon gate and dragged the maid's body out of the hall.
Because of his quick means, there was no trace of blood left on the spot. As he walked out of the hall and closed the door, the sound of his mother comforting her son suddenly disappeared.
"Preserve this place, I'll go back." The two young knights who were guarding the gate said, and the knight walked along the corridor outside the hall to the garden outside.
The body of the maid who was dragged by him behind him died with eyes open and stared at the white top of the corridor without any attention.
But before halfway, the knight's steps suddenly stopped and then bowed to the person who came across.
"Mr. Berrysh."
"What's wrong?" The visitor unexpectedly glanced at the maid's body in his hand.
The knight briefly talked about what had just happened, so the middle-aged man in a dark brown noble robe nodded.
"Chop and scatter and buried, deeper, otherwise when the climate warms up, the smell will be affected by you." He said, sighing gently: "My cute lady, I really don't consider the consequences when doing things. If you get rid of little Robin, it's time to blame the servant."
After saying that, he smiled kindly at the knight, and then continued to walk gracefully towards the main castle hall.
The Knight watched his back disappear from sight before continuing to walk towards the garden.
However, he did not find the corpse he pulled in his hand, and at this moment, two lines of blood and tears flowed out of his eyes inexplicably.
As he kept holding on, the blood and tears became more and more, and the color became darker and darker.
So, just as he turned a corner and was about to walk out of the corridor, the dim candlelight on both sides suddenly faded away, and the surroundings were in darkness.
The Knight's footsteps were paused.
Standing at the end of the stone corridor, the hazy moonlight penetrated through the gaps in the wall, causing the knight to exhale a frost white illumination, which also made him murmur full of confusion.
"Why is it so cold..."
