1. Caitlin Tully's teenage affair
In 264 years after the conquest, four years after the Battle of the Nine Copper Plates, Caitlin Tully was born in the city of Benliu, and her father was the Duke of Horst, who was the minister of the Lands of the River. Two years later, Caitlin's sister, Lesha Tully, also came to the world of fire and ice.
Caitlin and Lysa in their infancy, because of their similar ages, the sisterly relationship should be good.
A few years later, a little boy came from the Five Finger Peninsula and became the adopted son of Duke Horst Tully and the playmate of two little girls, this little boy was Lord Belissie, the little finger who would later become famous in the Seven Kingdoms.
Littlefinger is four years younger than Caitlin, and once madly infatuated with this little sister, for the simple reason that Caitlin Tully in her youth was once a famous little beauty in the eight townships, who had the beauty of sinking fish and falling geese, and had the appearance of a closed moon and a shy flower.
Even after adulthood, the book also describes the beauty of the middle-aged young woman Caitlin many times, and the casting of the actor in the play has problems, resulting in many of our viewers who look at people and think that Caitlin and Ned are sister-brother love.
While winning a crush, Caitlin lost a sisterhood.
All indications are that Lysa has long been angry about Littlefinger's love for her sister and is burned with jealousy about it. As a sister, Caitlin has always known nothing about her sister's feelings, if caitlin is too proud, or this sister is too uncaring for her sister. Later, Caitlin was deceived by Lesha, which also proved that the sister did not know anything about her sister.
Before Caitlin was eighteen, she was accused of marrying Brandon, the heir to the North, a man who lived as badly as Robert. This political marriage seriously hurt Littlefinger's heart and sowed the seeds of the chaos that followed the Seven Kingdoms.
In the duel between Littlefinger and Brandon, Caitlin only begged Brandon to leave Littlefinger alone at the last moment, but other than that, the grand princess of the Tully family only left a desperate word to Littlefinger that "never sees again", and did not take any care of the seriously injured Littlefinger, whose wounds were healed under the meticulous care of Lysa Fuley.
We can imagine Littlefinger's state of mind at that time, he was not Jorah Mormont after all, even if he did not hate Caitlin, he would not be Caitlin's lifelong dog licking, but later Caitlin was worthy of being called "Cat Auntie", and naturally thought that Littlefinger was an infatuated person, and he would not marry for her all his life.
The love triangle of the three children in the castle of Tully profoundly affected the fate of the continent of Westeros for decades to come.
2, Caitlin pit daddy, the land between the rivers is ruined
Decades later, Caitlin had become Duchess of the North and had taken the initiative to join the Thrones game, going back and forth between Winterfell and King's Landing, mingling in complex political relationships.
She is no longer the little girl she was then, and her status is respected, so in this case, it is a little ridiculous to only emphasize that she has maternal love, and we must improve our political position and use higher requirements to comprehensively evaluate her.
Yes, we should emphasize the identity of Lady Caitlin, not only the mother of those children, but also the wife of Ned, the hand of the king, and the daughter of Horst, Duke of Rush.
The Duke of Horst, however, was killed alive by this daughter.
Originally, the wolf family and the lion family were fighting for power, and the fish family could completely stay out of the matter, and everything that had happened before, Horst was unaware of it, and there was no half-cent relationship with the people of the land between the rivers.
But there is an inn in the land of the river, called the Crossroads Inn, and it is said that the donkey meat fire is quite authentic and attracts many diners, one of whom is Tyrion Lannister.
Tyrion, who is eating a fire, meets Caitlin, who is provoked by Littlefinger, and then inexplicably becomes Caitlin's captive. Caitlin, in the name of her father, said in public that my father is the boss here, Horst, and you will help me catch this dwarf.
As a result, everyone knew that Horst's daughter had captured Tywin's son.
In order not to let the people of Kaiyan City chase after her, Caitlin made herself clever and did not return to the north, but escorted Tyrion to the Valley Eagle's Nest City to find her sister Lesha, who had not been seen for many years, for fear that this matter was not big enough and involved enough.
This is Catherine, she is not without a brain, but the brain is not moving a place, it is better not to move.
As a result, the Lannisters had debts to pay, and the Duke of Tywin counted Tyrion's arrest on the head of the Tully family, and ordered the Magic Mountain, Amory, and other generals to march into the land between the rivers, where they were raped and plundered, and hundreds of people suffered and their lives were destroyed.
From the perspective of the second woman, we can see the tragic scene after this massacre, the displacement of the people, the precariousness, the desolation of the countryside, the hunger and cold of the people, the cannibalism of the yizi, and the corpses all over the field, all thanks to Ms. Caitlin.
I wonder if she ever thought about her father when she first captured Tyrion? Ever wondered about the fathers and fellow countrymen of the Land of the Rivers?
The Duke of Horst Tully lived a heroic life, but in his twilight, he was pit by his daughter and depressed.
Whenever I see this, I think of the line of the brigade commander in "Bright Sword": With him, I have to live ten years less!
This is probably what the Duke of Horst wanted to say to his daughter on his deathbed.
3, Caitlin pit man, pipe killing and burial
For Robert's invitation to become prime minister, Ned had originally refused.
But Lady Caitlin persuaded her husband to accede to Robert's request for three reasons: first, the king's face could not be refuted; second, she could take the opportunity to marry Sansa into the king's house and marry Robert; and third, Jon Erin died a terrible death.
That's all true, there's nothing wrong with that.
But if the underlying information for the judgment is wrong, the more correct the conclusion, the more dangerous it is.
Caitlin, in particular, overestimated her husband, believing that Ned was omnipotent and ignorant of the dangers of King's Landing.
Objectively speaking, Ned can't all blame Caitlin's head when he goes south, the main responsibility lies with himself, but then Caitlin's series of riotous operations, the nature of the pit man is very obvious.
First of all, it is unconditional trust in Littlefinger, and even the public news (Littlefinger lost the keel dagger to King Robert) has not been verified, and he has given Littlefinger a guarantee ticket in front of Ned, causing Ned to mistakenly trust Littlefinger.
In addition, Tyrion is publicly arrested, completely disregarding her husband's life and death in King's Landing, and letting Ned's leg be pierced by Jaime's guards in the street.
To know that King's Landing was the lion's family at that time, the husband and two daughters were in King's Landing, And Caitlin did this, which was equivalent to putting Ned and Sansa Arya on the fire and roasting, I really don't know what she thinks.
At that time, she didn't care about her daughters?
Originally, the Lion Family and the Wolf Family were all pure misunderstandings, but after Caitlin poured oil from it, the more it burned, not only provoked the war, but also directly led to the killing of Ned Stark at the age of 35.
Marrying a wife like this, is the Stark family a family misfortune?
4, the pit has a technique, the strange logic of the double standard dog
Robb was a good boy, and he was only fifteen years old when he was king of the North.
As the eldest son in the family, Robb knows that his mother's love should be given more to his younger siblings, but from the bottom of his heart, Robb has not grown up, and he needs Caitlin's care, not the demolition.
In the Battle of the Whispering Forest, the young Robb commanded well and captured the veteran James in one fell swoop, but the battle was very fierce, after all, James was the top five martial arts masters of the Seven Kingdoms, and many northern soldiers died under James's sword.
Karstark's two sons were both victims, and Kastark had no complaints about this, because war is not a dinner party, and it is normal to die.
But In order to save her two daughters, Caitlin secretly released James, and the nature changed.
In the face of the questioning of the northern princes, Caitlin rightly said that she was to save the child, and as a mother, there was nothing wrong with it.
Karstark's lung tubes were blown up, and the hearts of the northern princes were cold: Your children are people, and our children are cattle? Your children should live, and our children should be sacrificed? Who are we fighting for?
You must know that in response to the wolf family's southern expedition, many of the northern princes' families did not have time to harvest the wheat, but the northern empress dowager treated everyone like this, making everyone very cold.
Double-standard dogs are always like this, strict with others and loose to themselves, and can always find a bunch of crooked reasoning to defend themselves, when encountering such people, both men and women, to stay away.
Caitlin's performance presents a big problem for her son Robb, and Robb Stark, who is brave and fearless on the battlefield, is overwhelmed in front of his mother. Unable to appease the northern princes, he had to kill the reckless Karstark and forcibly suppress his followers.
In fact, we all know that not letting go of James has no practical significance for Sansa Arya's safety, and Caitlin's move is really harmful and harmless, and it is completely nonsense.
Look at Tywin's reaction after learning that Tyrion has been arrested, that's what politicians did.
Only if Robb can keep going, Sansa and Arya will be really safe.
Robb's defeat, external defeat without allies, internal defeat by the rebellion of the people, this led to the later blood wedding. The reason why Robb rebelled was because Caitlin had a trick, and for the safety of the so-called Sansa Arya, she did not care about Robb's situation.
Having such a mother was a disaster for Robb.
The book arranges for Caitlin to become Lady Stone Heart after the blood wedding and continue to live, and the play directly lets this person die by slitting his throat. For this woman, I think it is still well arranged in the play, such a loser woman, it is really not worth the Lightning King to pay for her own life, in exchange for her half-dead sins.
I just don't know what kind of face Caitlin has under the Nine Springs to see her father, to meet her husband, to meet her son, to meet those innocent fathers and countrymen in the land between the rivers?
