196 The Cursed Twin Cities

What has happened these last few days?

When Merry, who had been poured into a soup chicken, took his wife and two daughters to the meadow outside the city to gather with everyone at night, his brain, which was faintly aching from a hangover, was thinking about this question.

The inexplicable flood, the hanged marquise, the imprisoned Heiwade, another great flood......

In just two or three days, it was more "exciting" than what he had encountered in most of his previous life, if it weren't for the existence of monsters before, Merry dared to say that this was the most complicated period of his life, but because he drank too much, he didn't feel any fear now, but felt quite absurd about everything at the moment.

The noise around is somewhat like that of a vegetable market, and there is fear on every familiar face in this place.

Chubby Lyman. Frey is the eldest son of his own brother, and the second in line to the heir of the Frey family, usually this Frey family descendant is arrogant and rude, in recent days because of his son Hawade's affairs have wilted a lot, now look, Merry found that he has directly turned into a shivering big fat chicken. In the dim night, barefoot and holding his arms, staring at the family castle not far away that had been washed by the flood again, his fat lips were no longer as rosy as before, but full of paleness, and he may have thought of something with affection.

On the other side, there was a pair of cross-eyed, cunning and cruel brother Cripple Rosso, who seemed to Merry to be cunning, and his face was devoid of the pride of his former self-proclaimed cleverness, and he looked at the direction of the end of the hazy Green Fork River under the dark night, and his expression was full of despair, as if he had been hit hard.

These two are good, at least they can maintain basic calm, but the others are not so "steady", talking in horror, trembling, wetting their pants, speculating if their family is cursed by some evil......

"There is a second time, there is a second time, there is a third time, no, this place is too unlucky, I have to go back to Kaiyan City."

The younger sister of Duke Tywin and the second sister-in-law of the Lannisters, Gina. Lannister muttered something in the crowd, which scared the little daughter of the third family into tears, but the adults around him were no better than the little child, and their faces turned pale because of this sentence, and their eyes were worried or frightened.

"No, I can't live here." A trembling voice came from beside him, and Merry looked sideways, and at a glance saw that his wife, who was from the Hejian Diwang clan, was also not very good-looking.

"I'm going back, too, to live in Dairui City for a while, with my two daughters."

She said this, causing Merry to subconsciously shift her gaze.

The two daughters in his wife's mouth are now being held in her arms, and they don't look good, the pink baby who looks like a small ball of meat is even raising her hand to stroke her mother's black hair and giggling without worry, and Merry's eldest daughter is currently being held in her wife's hands, her eyes blinking and staring around, and her little face is dazed.

They all seemed to be fine, and Merry said, "Fatherโ€”"

"Will understand what I'm doing." His wife glared at him and said, her tone unquestionable.

The wife was an arrogant and pungent woman, Merry lamented secretly. The Daree family she was born in was once quite favored in front of the Targaryen royal family, but unfortunately it was because of this that they became staunch royalists, so much so that when the Robert rebellion ended, most of their land and wealth were confiscated, and their power shrank significantly, and they fell into a second-rate land.

It's a pity that the reduction in the strength of her mother's family has not affected the temper of this unruly woman, or Merry herself is really not very competitive, and the trauma to the brain makes him feel a splitting headache with just a light knock, let alone put on a tough posture to quarrel with his wife.

So he could only shut up and stop talking.

The mess eventually calmed down as time passed, and in the cold night, a large group of Freys stood outside the castle shivering and waited for a while, and when they found that the Green Fork River seemed to be all right, they finally had the courage to run back, and then the second, and the third......

Merry had gone back with the army, but on the way back he suddenly noticed that there seemed to be some commotion in the castle, which he was a little strange about, but at this time his wife was constantly nagging beside him, so that he did not bother to pay attention to anything else.

But it didn't take long for him to hear something very special.

"Havard escaped." Danwill, the brother born to a mother, has always taken good care of Merry, who has a brain injury, and tonight he came to talk about it, Merry has always thought that this brother is a good person, but the appearance of missing a front tooth makes him look uglier than himself.

"I heard someone rescued him."

"Who is it?" Merry asked curiously.

As the bloodline of the first wife of the old Marquis Frey, Havard's succession line is not low in the entire Frey family, and at the same time it is strong and rude, and in the past, many people in the family vied for it.

It's just that after that incident was exposed, he became a rat crossing the street and was spurned by others, who still has the heart to save him now?

If it weren't for the fact that Hewald's grandfather, the eldest son of Marquis Frey, had not come back from the counterattack on the Iron Islands, and the old marquis wanted to wait for him to return before starting a family trial, Hewald would have been beheaded a long time ago.

"I don't know."

The elder brother shook his head and said, "But my father is very angry about this, and I even heard him scolding when I passed by the hall, and then it seemed that he was called after him." โ€

"If it were me, I'd be angry."

Merry muttered quietly, but didn't dare to say anything, but everyone knew about it, and his brother Danwell naturally wouldn't fail to understand Merry's words, but he scratched his head at this, and his face was confused.

"But it's not just Hewald who scolds, but Mellister."

"Mellister?" Merry was surprised to hear this.

In the past two days, he heard that the heir of the Mellister family came to ask for help, saying that their family's Haijiang City was being attacked by the Iron People, and Merry didn't know much about the specific situation, but he didn't approve of the Frey family sending troops to help them-

When it's usually fine, the Earl of Mellister looks down on their Frey family, and now when something happens, he comes to ask for soldiers, how can there be such a good thing in the world?

But......

Has Haijiang City reached the point where it has to ask for help?

He was a little confused about it.

Although the Frey family and the Namelister family are neighbors, the distance between this neighbor is actually not short, and the two families did not move much in the past, and there is not much news that can be heard on a daily basis.

The last time Merry heard about the Mellister family was a month ago, and it was said that their territory was being harassed by a small group of Iron People, but it seemed that the scale was small, and it was no different from the Iron People harassing other coastline territories, but now it is ......

However, he didn't take it seriously, whether the Iron People harassed or not had nothing to do with their Frey family - now was not the time when the Iron People ruled the Riverland and the Iron Islands in the River Islands, and those poor ghosts from the Western Islands were at most robbing the fishing villages and territories near the mainland and the sea, and they wouldn't come here anyway.

Unfortunately, the next day, Merry's mind was suddenly changed.

It's true that Tiemin can't come to their Twin River City, but I don't know what his old father thinks, he actually announced early in the morning that he would recruit soldiers to support Haijiang City?

"Since Jason Mellister sent his son to ask for help, it means that Haijiang City can't hold out for long." In the Frey family hall, the bald old man on the black oak high-backed chair spoke expressionlessly to the group of children and grandchildren below.

"Regardless of the previous relationship, both of us are vassals of the Tully family, both are good courtiers of King Robert, and we are both family. Since Mellister is in trouble, our Frey family naturally can't watch from the sidelines. โ€

Own family?

The people around him were stunned by the words of the old Marquis Frey, and Merry was also a little confused by this.

Is there something wrong with his ears too?

Or is it actually a dream now?

When did he, the old father, who never scatters eagles without seeing rabbits, also become so conscious?
