The Winter of Ice and Fire Is Coming - Chapter 1066
The Dustin family has a vassal, the Staur family of Golden Fort.
The squad leader who drove the ox cart to send Will Aria and his party to the town of Desolate, he came from the Stout family, and his name was Jerome Stout. He is not yet a knight, but the third son in the family. The wealth and territory of the family have nothing to do with him, and the heirs of the nobles inherit everything. Jerome Stout chose to garrison Saltspear Beach for the Dustin family.
After a day and a half, Captain Jerome Stout knew Will’s identity. He also knew that the handsome and indifferent man was named James Lannister.
“Captain Jerome Stout, I don’t want you to tell anyone else in the town that Arya and I came to Desolate Town.” Will handed a bag of coins to the captain. “I and Allie Ya came here for a little personal matter. We hope to live in the town quietly for a few days.”
“Prime Minister, you ordered the villain, and the villain must keep it in mind. Even if someone prys open my mouth with a knife, I don’t want to know anything about the Prime Minister from my mouth.” Jerome Stouyi The soldier obeyed the order and swore.
Will nodded, and Jerome Stout took the money bag: “Thank you, Prime Minister, and Mrs. Arya, thank you. In the name of the old and new gods, and the glory of the Stout family, please Mrs. Leah believes in my loyalty. Being able to drive for the Prime Minister and Mrs. Jerome is the highest honor of Jerome’s humble life.”
Along the way, Jerome also learned that Will and Arya were married.
Thus, Miss Arya became Mrs. Arya.
Will and Arya are married. People in remote places won’t know, and they won’t have the opportunity to meet these two great men.
In the Battle of the Five Kings and the battle against ghosts, the Countess of Dustin Lord Barballet Leswell sent the old, weak and sick to perfuse the Stark family. She herself and the family’s brave knights were even more stunned. In Huangzhong Town, he refused to participate in any war.
For the Prime Ministers of the Seven Nations, Barballet Leswell only knows his name and has never met him.
This also facilitated Will and Arya’s party.
Arya’s white cloak is lined with a mink shawl, and the family crest of the “Ice Wolf” on her chest is tightly covered.
*
Huangzhong Town is not too big, but not too small. The main castle of Mrs. Ballet Leswell is extremely majestic. It is a castle made of huge rocks. It is not very high, but it is very wide and has many rooms. Next to the main fort? There is a high spire watchtower.
In the hall of the main fort, there are eight fireplaces, four of which are burning with raging flames. Mrs. Ballet is grilling in front of a fireplace in the center? Holding a goblet in her hand? Her complexion is extremely pale? It seems that she has never been in the sun.
Her eyes were sunken, her eyes were blue, her face was thin? Her cheeks were slightly sunken? Her cheekbones were highlighted. This makes her look bitter and mean. She looked at people with suspicion in her eyes, as if facing some kind of conspiracy, which made her look abnormal? With a slight nervousness.
Above the fireplace? Hanging antlers from hunting knights. The antlers are beautiful? They decorate almost the entire wall.
Cocoa!
There was a knock on the door.
But the knock on the door did not affect the ballet stare at the flame in the fireplace.
The door was opened? A man walked in? It was a maid.
“Madam.” The maid said with her head lowered.
Ballet seems to be immune to all sounds? She was still staring at the flame, as if she hadn’t heard a knock on the door, nor did she hear the title of Madam.
“Madam, there are seven people in the town, six men? A lady. The masculine head is extraordinary? The rest of the men are like knights.”
“Is that woman a nobleman?” Mrs. Ballet said suddenly. Her eyes? Still did not leave the flame.
“It seems to be. The lady is wearing a pure white cape? A pure white mink shawl. Moccasins and mole gloves. The knitting at the bottom of the dress is fine and well-proportioned, which is the perfect handwork.”
“What accent?”
“Do they speak lingua franca? Women have an authentic northern accent. One of the men has a strong Western accent, and the others have a Wangjie and Hejian accent.”
“Oh, I see. Let the Kadyrov knights go and take a look, remind that idiot Kadyrov, pay attention to their coat of arms, the pin that locks the cloak, and the family crest on the sheath of the long sword.”
“Yes, ma’am.”
“They have anything suspicious in the town, so bring them all to the castle to see me.”
“Yes, ma’am.”
The maid withdrew. Ballet slowly stood up, walked to a painting, and looked at the young heroic man on the painting. If Arya were here, she would see that the man in the painting was someone she knew. There is also such a face on the family tree of the Stark family, on the family tree wall in the main castle hall: Brandon Stark.
Brandon Stark, the heir of the Stark family known as the wild wolf, the older brother of Ed Stark, the uncle of Arya Stark.
Brandon Stark was the adopted son of Ballet Leswell’s father. When Brandon grew into a brave boy, ballet was deeply fascinated by him. Ballet vowed to marry Brandon Stark. Brandon Stark was young and affectionate and promised to marry the elegant and beautiful ballerina Leswell. As a result, the girl was enthusiastic and dedicated her first night to Brandon Stark without hesitation.
But the good times didn’t last long. Brandon Stark couldn’t decide for his marriage. His father, Rickard Stark, made a marriage plan for him. He must be with the eldest daughter of the Duke of Tully. Caitlin Tully married.
The Earl of Leswell is a vassal of the Duke of Rickard, he can only persuade Ballet to marry Brandon Stark’s brother Ed Stark. Except for Ballet and Brandon, no one knows that the first night of Ballet has been given to Brandon.
Perhaps in order to make up for the regret of Earl Leswell, Ricard agreed to the engagement of Ballet and Ed Stark, but this relationship needs to be officially mentioned after Brandon and Caitlin are married.
In desperation, Ballet retreated to second place, and she was willing to marry Ed Stark.
Soon, Brandon Stark broke into the palace for his sister Lyanna to fight Crown Prince Rega, and was executed by the Mad King. Those who were also executed by the Mad King were Duke Recard and dozens of descendants of nobles from the North.
After the tragic death of his father and brother to the palace, Ed Stark inherited the title. Seeing that the ballerina, who was heartbroken for Brandon’s death, could become the Duchess of the North, but Ed Stark’s adoptive father Jon Alling In order to ally with the army in the Riverlands, he chose to marry the youngest daughter of the Tully family, Lysa Tully, and persuaded Ed Stark to choose Caitlin Tully, who should have married his brother Brandon.
Ballet Leswell missed Ed Stark again, and was forced to marry a young man who liked to ride a tall red horse and wore a long sword. He was Ed Stark’s personal friend William. · Dustin.
The War of the Usurpers broke out and Ed gave an order. William, who had been married for only half a month, led the whole family and soldiers came out and followed Ed. In the end, for Lyanna, William died in the famous Battle of Bliss Tower. Under the Tower of Bliss.
And when Ed Stark returned to the North, he did not bring back the bones of William. Seven people died and five people were killed in battle. The remaining two were slightly injured and the other seriously injured. He could not bring back the bones of the five people. But this made Ballet’s ‘new hatred and old hatred’ surge in her heart. She had a resentment towards Ed Stark that could not be rid of her life, and incidental hatred towards other members of the Stark family.
Nearly twenty years have passed, and the ballerina, who is less than forty years old, can’t let go. She has become pale, old, acrimonious, suspicious, cold, nervous, and even cruel in the years of suffering.
Will knew about the old grudges between Ballet and Brandon and Ed. They came to the town of Desolate. Will decided to avoid ballet and not provoke her.
However, he found that he might not be able to bypass this hurdle.
When they stayed in the small town hotel, a knight arbitrarily pushed open their door and broke in.
“Hey, stranger from outside, I’m Sir Kadyrov Dustin, and our countess wants to see you. Hurry up and follow me!”
