Standing in front of the window and staring at the outside world, in the pouring rain, a group of cloaked figures were braving the rain to leave the castle gate, so Brienne couldn't help but look at the silver-haired manager beside her and asked.

"Will he be in danger?"

"It's not just dangerous, it's unnecessary." The boss replied.

"Lord Lan Li must have his reasons."

"I don't think there's any reason for that adult to venture out of town in the rain, Miss Brienne."

"But he's just out of town." Brienne said, "There's a reason, maybe it's inconvenient for him to say?" ”

"Hopefully." The boss sighed.

It's been five days, and the heavy rain outside hasn't stopped, and it's been okay for the past two days, only the rain remains, and the first two are even accompanied by violent winds.

However, even the rain made them very uncomfortable, and the castle of the Twilight Hall was leaking everywhere under the continuous penetration of the rain, and at this moment the servants were busy running around to make emergency repairs, and the mountain pastures not far from the castle could not graze for the time being, and the animals were damp and hungry in the enclosure, and the shepherds came to report that more than a dozen sheep had fallen ill from it.

Not only that, the estates on the island are also severely flooded, and the farmers who come in the rain are in a hurry, and the harvest will definitely be affected. And if the rain doesn't stop outside, the impact will be even more severe.

In this case, he was already anxious, but not long ago, the distinguished guest with a special identity even claimed that he wanted to go out of the city, and he didn't say the reason when he asked why, but it was difficult to refuse because of the other party's identity, which was simply helpless.

"Heaven God bless, don't let anything happen to that person, otherwise it will be more troublesome."

The old manager muttered silently, and out of the corner of his eye, he found that the young lady next to him was absent-minded, so he had a headache even more.

"Did the young lady like that adult?"

"Well, no." Brienne hurriedly denied it, but her freckled face was a little unnatural, "I'm just wondering, is what he said about me that day true?" ”

"That's a normal courtesy greeting, miss, don't be too careful."

"But I felt he was very sincere."

Brienne said, looking dazed, as if recalling, "Doesn't it look polite?" ”

"Of course it's more than polite, Miss Brienne."

The steward complimented, "You are as pure as a baby, and I agree with that." But you know, the lord said this mainly because of etiquette. ”

Brienne was a little incomprehensible to her, and the old man sighed.

What he wants to say is that if it weren't for the etiquette, the other party probably wouldn't have praised you at all, and might not even look at you more, but it's really cruel to say this, and the old man doesn't want to make the person in front of him sad.

It's just that if you don't say that, it seems that the consequences are more serious?

He hesitated.

In the past few days, he found that the young lady in front of him had been absent-minded, and he was not even as attentive as usual when eating, and the old man had been very worried about this, and now he could determine the truth - this eighty percent was moved by a word of praise from others.

The boss is very helpless about this, but he can also understand that from childhood to adulthood, in addition to his own lord, who has praised the young lady even a word?

Or even if there is a boast, it is not at all sincere, not as convincing as the King's Landing guest.

However, the old steward did not think that the words in the mouth of the guest were sincere—

Miss Brienne is indeed a simple child, but perhaps a beautiful person with this kind of character is admirable, ugly...... I'm afraid it would be considered very stupid.

The reality is like this, the boss clearly understands this, but looking at the ugly girl in front of him, it is difficult for him to tell the truth, he can only secretly hope that the heavy rain outside will stop as soon as possible, and then the guest of King's Landing will leave quickly, stop staying here to "seduce" people, this group of countrymen who have never seen the world can not be tempted at all.

Miss Brienne is like this, the maids in the castle have been attracted to attention one by one these days, and they can always hear their discussions about it when passing by, and even have the courage to run and take the initiative to seduce, the old man is very wary of this, in case someone can't help but make a few bastards, it will be a mess......

"The rain outside seems to have stopped."

The young lady's voice interrupted the old man's sad thoughts, and when he came back to his senses, there was no sound of rain in his ears, and when he raised his eyes to take a closer look, it was already calm outside the window.

This surprised the old man, "Could it be that my prayer was heard by the gods?" ”

I didn't have time to think about it, there was a lot of work to be done after the rain stopped, but in addition to being busy, the boss was secretly relieved.

Now that the rain has stopped, the one who ran out before won't encounter any dangerous situations, and he shouldn't be able to stay long after he comes back, right?

……

Just as the old steward of the Tass family over there was thinking this, five guards who had followed Lan Li out of the castle were standing in front of a vast lake a mile away.

"Why hasn't it come out yet?"

"It's not really going to be drowned, is it?"

"Then we're going to be miserable, he's the king's brother."

"We didn't push him down, he went down on his own!"

"Will anyone listen to you?"

"Gods bless ......"

Nestled in the hills, the lake has a crystal clear water and is surrounded by undulating green grass.

When the rain stopped, the environment was particularly peaceful, but the guards from Tass didn't bother with the scenery, and now they were worried about whether they would be implicated.

After running out of the city, they came to the lake, and then the lord named Lan Li jumped straight in, and it had been almost half an hour now, but it still hadn't surfaced.

What is happening underwater seems to be self-evident.

However, if that person really wants to die here, not only these people, but also the lord will probably be implicated, after all, who would believe that a person jumped into a lake for no reason and drowned for such a reason, which is not very reliable at first hearing?

"It's not a way to wait, I'll go down and see!"

After walking around for a while, one of the middle-aged guards gritted his teeth and made up his mind, but was stopped by his companion, "Don't go down, the little young master drowned here in the first place, and that Lord Lan Li hasn't come out for so long, and eighty percent has also drowned." ”

"That's right, there's something weird about this lake!"

"So what do we do?"

"Maybe the king won't—"

Before the words fell, the sound of breaking the water suddenly appeared, and the five guards hurriedly turned their heads to look, and then their faces were happy.

Because the one they thought had drowned had finally appeared! And it's still alive!

"Are you alright, my lord!?" Seeing the people in the lake swimming to the shore, the guard, who had been about to jump in to check the situation, hurriedly ran up to answer it, and finally pulled one of them up.

"It's okay, I can hold my breath for a long time." Lan Li, who was drenched, replied, and then looked up at the sky, and couldn't help but be stunned.

"When did this rain stop?"

"It was just a short time ago."

One of the guards hurriedly replied, and his eyes looked curiously at the sudden extra sword in Lan Li's hand.

When he jumped into the lake, he didn't take anything.

"Soon......"

Lan Li didn't continue to say anything when he heard this, but the hand holding the sword in his hand tightened unconsciously.
