"Stone scorpion poison is a poison from Essos. It is very rare. A small bottle is worth dozens of gold dragons.
It enters the human body through blood, and within a few minutes, symptoms of accelerated heartbeat will appear.
This symptom deepens as time goes by, and eventually, the heart of the poisoned person will burst because it beats too fast."
When the burly jailer heard that Jia Qian was inexplicably giving him knowledge about poisons, he said impatiently: "What are you talking about that people can't understand? I just want to know now, except for this golden dragon in your hand, what else are there?"
"Others? Already flowing in your body."
With a smile on his face, Jaqen pointed at the burly jailer and said.
"In my body..."
When the burly jailer heard his words, he suddenly realized that the poison he just mentioned was a poison that entered the body through the blood.
The stinging feeling on his palm when he took the golden dragon came to mind. He immediately spread out his left hand and saw a red dot the size of a mung bean appeared in his palm.
The burly jailer suddenly felt that his heart was beating rapidly, which was completely consistent with the symptoms of poisoning.
"Ah! You have poisoned me! Give me the antidote!"
"I have the antidote here, come in and get it!"
Looking at the burly jailer who put his hand into the cell, Jaqen smiled and slowly took a few steps back, disappearing into the darkness of the cell.
The burly jailer, who was anxious, didn't even think about it. He reached back from the small window, took out the cell key, opened the wooden door of the cell, and walked in with a long sword in hand.
"ah!"
Then, a rapid scream sounded as it should.
After a while, the burly jailer walked out of the cell. After locking the wooden door of the cell, he said to himself: "How can there be such a poison? If someone is too nervous, his heartbeat will definitely accelerate!"
…
Robb passed through the secret passage and soon returned to the Prime Minister's Tower. When he came out of the secret passage, the morning sun had risen from the east, illuminating the entire continent of Westeros.
He did not follow Varys' instructions and went directly to the Prime Minister's Tower's palace and left the Red Keep through the secret passage.
Instead, he stood by the window sill in the hall of the Prime Minister's Tower, carefully observing the towering Maegor's Tower not far away.
Sansa is there!
Robb did not act rashly. The Red Keep was currently heavily guarded, not to mention the numerous golden robes.
The Kingsguard headed by Barristan Selmy alone is not something that can be easily dealt with.
Although Barristan the Fearless is old, he is equivalent to the incorruptible man in Westeros, getting stronger with age.
Coupled with James' superb swordsmanship, if one man could deal with them both with a single sword, even Robb, whose physical strength had greatly improved, might not even have a chance to escape.
As the sun rose higher and higher, large-scale movements of golden robes began to appear in the Red Keep. He saw nearly half of the golden robes being transferred out of the Red Keep.
Robb knew that they were either searching him or maintaining order at the king's funeral today.
Seeing the opportunity coming, he quietly went to the bottom of the Prime Minister's Tower.
The bottom floor of the Prime Minister's Tower is connected to Maegor's Tower. Since it is uninhabited, there are naturally no golden robe guards.
However, Robb observed from the stairs on the second floor that at the connection between Maegor's Tower and the Hand's Hall, a patrolling gold robe slowly walked out. He walked to the center of the hall on the ground floor of the Hand's Tower, and then turned back again.
Seeing the gold robe walking back to Maegor's Tower, Robb took the opportunity to rush from the second floor stairs to the connection on the ground floor, waiting with bated breath for the gold robe to patrol again.
Thump, thump!
The patrolling golden robe slowly walked toward the lobby of the Prime Minister's Tower.
When he just stepped into the lobby of the Prime Minister's Tower, a gloved black hand suddenly stretched out from the right side, strangled his neck, and forcibly dragged him in with a powerful force that he could not resist at all.
Robb's left elbow was wrapped around the goldcloak's neck, making it difficult for him to cry out for help.
He grabbed Jinpao's chin with his right hand, and then twisted it to the left.
The gold-robed man's neck subconsciously moved to the right, trying to hinder Robb's movements.
Feeling the resistance from his right hand, Robb suddenly changed direction, grabbed his chin and twisted it to the right.
Click!
In order to resist Robb, the resistance of the golden robe twisting his neck to the right instantly turned into a thrust, superimposed with the power of Robb's right hand.
It easily broke his trachea, and at the same time, the powerful force twisted his spine.
After a while, Robb hid the body and ice in a cupboard in the hall, put on a golden robe, and headed towards Maegor's Tower openly.
The number of guards in Maegor's Tower was as expected by Robb. Wearing a golden robe and a helmet, he walked around Maegor's Tower with his head lowered and did not attract the attention of the guards at all.
When he reached the side stairs of Maegor's Tower, Robb looked around and then walked directly upstairs.
I had just passed the second floor and was about to walk towards the third floor when suddenly I heard footsteps coming downstairs.
When Robb heard the sound, he immediately retreated to the second floor, quietly entered an unoccupied room next to the stairs, and hid behind the door.
"Dog, please bring my fiancée down before setting off. My father's funeral must have loud cries."
Joffrey, dressed in golden royal casual clothes, walked down the stairs while giving instructions to the hunting dogs.
Listening to his voice, Robb, who was behind the door, slowly stretched his hand to the hilt of his standard sword at his waist.
"Your Majesty, it's getting late, your dress should be ready."
An old and powerful voice spoke after Joffrey finished speaking.
"Well, dog, let's go change clothes first and remember my instructions later."
"As you command!"
Hearing that old voice, Robb knew that it should be 'Baristan the Fearless'.
He stopped the movements of his hands, held his breath, and hid behind the door of the room.
Joffrey and his party hurried down the stairs without even thinking about checking the rooms on the second floor.
After they were far away, Robb came out cautiously and walked upstairs again.
In the high-rise area of Maegor's Tower, Sansa, a slender figure with a delicate face, was walking around in the guest room where she was temporarily staying with a worried look on her face.
Just now she begged Joffrey for mercy for her father Eddard.
Joffrey responded with sarcastic words. At this time, she deeply felt that without her father's support, she had no status at all.
Squeak!
The door was opened, a man in gold robe quickly entered the room, and then closed the door.
"Who are you? What do you want to do?
Don’t come here! I am the daughter of the King’s Hand!”
Seeing the suspicious-looking man in gold robes, Sansa was so frightened that she backed away and threatened.
Hearing his sister's familiar voice, Robb took off his helmet and said softly: "Sansa, it's me!"
"Brother, why are you here?"
In Winterfell, Sansa, who had always called Robb by his first name, was surprised to call him brother this time.
Then she immediately threw herself into Robb's arms like a swallow in the forest.
"Uuuu, brother, father was taken into the dungeon, Sister Mordane, she did it for me..."
Sansa, who had been suppressing herself for the past few days since Eddard was captured, couldn't help but burst into tears when she saw her brother.
He stretched out his left hand to hug Sansa, and patted her thick maroon hair with his right hand. Robb comforted her: "Sansa, don't cry. Come on, let's go home!"
