Get into bed?

Aegor found it amusing. This trick was indeed a great weapon against men, but Arya seemed to be suffering from taking the words literally and completely misunderstood the correct usage. Getting into a man’s bed, you have to use it after he is drunk and his consciousness is blurred, or after he has taken off his clothes and gone to sleep to be lethal. I have not gone to bed yet, and you have already gotten in, I think it is hard to get hit.

He walked to the bedside, intending to lift the quilt and catch Arya, but he saw a neat stack of clothes on the bedside table, and then he knew that this girl had taken off her clothes. Now it would not be appropriate to mess around, so he could only carefully lift a corner of the quilt, revealing her head, then put his hands on his hips and looked down, confronting her through the quilt.

“More than a year ago, it seemed to be in this place. You sneaked into my bed. What did I say to you at that time, ‘If you do it again, do not call me Master anymore!'”

“If I do not call you, I will not call you. Who cares?” Arya reached out and pulled the quilt back a little to block the cold, shrinking in the quilt and only showing her head, looking at Aegor with a firm expression and no compromise. “You said those words to me during the day. If you do not sleep with me tonight, it proves that those words are all lies. I am going to kill the Mad King’s daughter tomorrow. If it does not work once, I will do it twice. If it does not work twice, I will do it three times. It will always work.”

“What words did I say to you?” Aegor asked with a smile, counting his fingers. “Let me help you recall. I promised you, I will definitely accompany you to play anytime you come to Crown Town in the future, find a way to help you break off the engagement, and also guarantee that you will be the first female Night’s Watch. Right? Which one of these do you say requires me to sleep with you to prove that it is not a lie?”

“You you you… You said you like me!”

“I did not say I like you. Okay, Master does like you, but do you express your liking by sleeping with others?”

“Oh, I do not care, I am going to sleep with you tonight anyway!” Arya knew she could not win against him, so she simply covered her head with the quilt again.

This stinky girl really put Aegor in a dilemma. Last time she came and occupied his bedroom, Aegor solved the problem by leaving the room and sleeping in the one that was arranged for her. But now Crown Town Inner Keep did not have many empty rooms at all. If Daenerys had not come, the tower on Lake Isle would still be the last bit of room, but now… Or go to Melisandre’s place for the night? Tsk, the Red Priestess had repeatedly ordered him not to disturb her without prior communication.

“If you dare to leave this room… I… I…” Arya also remembered the last time she failed to get into bed and was afraid that Aegor would run away again, so she quickly poked her head out again to add a threat. “I will go find the Mad King’s daughter right away, tonight!”

“You stinky girl!” Aegor immediately glared at Arya fiercely when he heard this, pretending to hit her, but the girl had already shrunk back into the quilt, playing deaf to him.

Aegor, who had rearranged the security work, was not worried that Arya could assassinate Daenerys. Not to mention that she had never been to the House of Black and White in Braavos in this timeline to be trained and become a Faceless Man, even if she had been there, in a casual chat after countless in-depth communication and exchanges with Melisandre, he had also learned that the Faceless Men of the House of Black and White are indeed a first-class assassin organization, but that is all. Their reputation, which seems to be able to assassinate anyone in the world, relies far more on mystery and rumor than real strength. Skills like changing faces are just petty tricks in the eyes of high-level priests who have truly and systematically mastered magic, and they can see through them at a glance.

Even if Arya was a Faceless Man, with Melisandre in Crown Town and paying attention to Daenerys’s situation, she would have no chance of assassinating the latter.

What Aegor was worried about was not the Queen’s safety, but the little assassin herself. If Arya made a big fuss and let Daenerys know that she was in Crown Town, how would things develop?

If you are the Dragon Queen, and you bring Three Dragons to the territory of the neutral Night’s Watch, and then one of your biggest enemies, the sister of the ruler of the North, comes here to assassinate you at night, will you be generous enough to laugh it off and say, “She is just a child, forget it”?

Daenerys is not a kind woman. She has conquered all the way, bathed in blood and fire, and witnessed killing and death. The flaws in the True Dragon bloodline make her show an emotional instability that Aegor could clearly feel after only seeing her twice. She is friendly to Aegor not only because the Night’s Watch is a neutral force that can be won over, but also because Aegor showed the same aspirations and ideals as her, as well as useful, admirable means, abilities, and capital. But Aegor did not dare to be arrogant enough to be sure that this kind of friendship was strong enough to protect others in the face of “True Dragon’s Wrath,” and that is still in the case where Arya is at fault first.

Even if he could finally persuade Daenerys to let Arya go for his sake, he would owe the Queen a great favor.

And this kind of “ruler to subject” favor is difficult to repay.

“So, you are determined to make Master angry?” Aegor said angrily. “Do your family’s guards, and Maeve, know where you are? Will they not be looking for you everywhere?”

“Those guys are not watching me all the time, Maeve… Maeve knows I came to find you.”

Aegor breathed a sigh of relief, stood by the bed and stared at Arya, who was occupying his bed, for a while, and finally made up his mind. “Okay, I will sleep with you tonight. You stay here honestly.”

With that said, he turned and went out, finished washing up normally, went straight to the household goods warehouse not far away to get a new quilt, and returned to his room, entering the bedroom.

It was impossible to really do anything to Arya, but the literal meaning of “sleeping together” was easy to achieve. Aegor ignored Arya’s shouts and screams, and unceremoniously wrapped her in the quilt and rolled her into a human roll wrapped in a cotton quilt, then wrapped a cloth around it and tied it into a knot, tying the girl into a rice dumpling. Then he threw his newly acquired quilt on the other side of the vacated bed, slowly took off his coat while whistling easily, and got into another slightly cold but still dry new quilt.

Arya struggled to poke her head out. “Hey, this is cheating! It does not count! Let me go!”

How are you going to cause trouble now? Aegor smiled, ignored her, and turned off the oil lamp. “Okay, go to bed, we have to get up early tomorrow.”

“I cannot breathe!”

“You have so much energy when you speak, how can you not breathe? Be quiet, do not talk anymore!” Aegor also wrapped himself in the quilt, leaned against Arya’s big roll, and closed his eyes contentedly.

A year ago, even this kind of formal co-sleeping would have been absolutely impossible for Aegor. The reason is simple, sleeping together means sleeping together, who would believe that he did not do anything?

But now, the road ahead has been planned, and the next family has also been found. Even if the news that Arya spent the night in his room is leaked in the future, the Starks will helplessly find that the biggest problem they face is how to deal with the strong and restless Night’s Watch, who have announced their allegiance to Daenerys Targaryen and even started recruiting female soldiers, and the biggest trouble they should be entangled in is how to persuade Arya, who happily put on the black clothes for the first time, to go home and deal with the black army marching south, and there is no intention or opportunity at all to question him about how he dared to sleep in the same room with their daughter, and not take her reputation and good name to heart.
