Chapter 25: Aven's Change
Daisy Mormont, the eldest daughter of Madame Maggie, is the head of the Coal and Iron Base. One of the business tycoons of Bear Island.
Daisy rushed up and looked at Evan carefully. Said happily: "Aiwen, you finally woke up!" ”
Evan immediately realized that something was wrong and asked seriously, "What happened?" ”
Daisy saw Aven's dazed look on his face, and quickly spoke: "Lord Aven, before you arrived in King's Landing, you fell seriously ill and fell into a coma, and a month later, the news reached Bear Island. Lyanna thinks you may have been assassinated by someone in King's Landing, so she asked me to lead a team of former King's Landing to investigate. ”
Evan spoke, "How long has it been since I fell unconscious?" ”
"It's been three months!"
For three months, Evan never thought that he would be in a coma for three months. He now desperately needs to know what has happened to him in the past three months: "Daisy, tell me what happened in these three months?" ”
Daisy spoke: "Lord Aven, in the past three months, Lord Eddard has succeeded to the position of Prime Minister, and Lyanna has also received that you are only sick and not poisoned, so everything is normal on Bear Island and the Iron Islands. Nothing happened on the other side of the Wall, everything was fine. ”
"What about King's Landing? Did anything big happen? ”
"Recent events on King's Landing's side include the Knight of the Hundred Flowers Loras Tyrell winning the championship of the Premier Tournament, and Lord Eddard rectifying the law and order in King's Landing. There is also the capture of an Assassin from Ersoros in the Kingdom Library. ”
After hearing this, Evan said to Daisy, "You go and prepare pen and paper, and I will write a letter to Lyanna, and immediately let the raven send it back to Bear Island." ”
"Yes, sir!"
After Daisy left, Evan called the guards from Bear Island, who were guarding the door, and said a few words in his ear, and he turned away, walked outside, and disappeared into King's Landing.
After a while, Daisy returned, put down the pen and paper and prepared to leave, but Evan stopped her: "There is nothing that cannot be seen, you are my aunt, I believe you will not betray me." ”
This was the first time in Daisy's life that she had heard Evan call her aunt. I don't know how for a while, but I was moved in my heart: "Ai Wen......"
"I used to be too bastard, but after this serious illness, I know that you are my relatives and will not betray me. Daisy, can you forgive me? ”
In the past, Evan had always been a cold-faced person, no matter who he was. Cold, rejecting people thousands of miles away. Everything is in your heart. After this serious illness, Daisy found that Evan had become gentle: "We are relatives, there is nothing to forgive or not forgive, but you were really cold before, as if you were wary of everyone." ”
Evan smiled, and then said to Daisy, "I am writing this time for two purposes, the first is to inquire about the situation on the other side of the Great Wall, and the second is to ask how the sixth group of explorers is doing?" ”
Daisy said suspiciously, "The sixth batch of invaders? ”
"It's a long story, when I was nine years old, I was ......"
In the past, Evan was too tired to live, and all the secrets were guarded by himself, always on the lookout for everyone around him. After this serious illness, he realized that he had not been integrated into the world before, but looked at the world through the eyes of God as a bystander.
Now, he needed to make a change, so he told Daisy everything. After Daisy listened, her mouth opened wide, and for a moment she understood why Evan did not build Bear Island after making money over the years, but invested a lot of money, manpower and material resources into the Night Watch Legion. She understood in an instant why Evan had achieved so much and had come to King's Landing at the risk of his life!
"Aven, you're here to ...... King's Landing"
Evan smiled and said, "Yes, Daisy, are you afraid?" ”
Daisy thought for a moment, "Why didn't you tell the Lord of the Seven Realms?" ”
Evan asked rhetorically, "If you weren't my relative and didn't know what I've done all these years, would you believe what I say?" ”
Daisy thought about it for a moment, and was saddened to find that she didn't believe any of the legends that were true. As a native of the North, she didn't believe it, let alone these arrogant southern nobles? In the past two months, she has seen the ugly faces of the southern aristocracy. People only want to believe what they believe!
"So what's next? Is there anything I need to do? ”
Evan spoke, "I need you to go back and help Lyanna, she's only nine years old after all. I've got me here! ”
Daisy opened her mouth and said, "How can it be done, plus the fifty soldiers I brought, there are only seventy people from Bear Island here, what if something happens to you?" Bear Island can't live without you! ”
Evan gave Daisy a determined look, "Don't worry, it's been five years since the caravan from Bear Island arrived in King's Landing, and you won't think I'm not prepared for anything." I started setting it up five years ago, and even if I fail, I'll be able to escape! ”
"But ......"
Ai Wen said, "There is nothing to do, you can go back in peace." Bear Island is the top priority, and in recent years, with the economic growth of the north, the population has gradually migrated to the north. Especially since Bear Island now has 250,000 people, and there are 100,000 people in the Night's Watch territory, plus the millions of people in the north, even if I fail in the end, I can't stop the strangers! This time you go back and start carrying out the reserve plan! ”
Daisy had long known about the plan: "Where is Robb?" ”
"No need to explain, if he asks, say I asked you to do it. It will take at least two or three years for this plan to be fully implemented before Robb can get his attention, and by then there will be almost news of the ghosts! ”
"And when am I leaving?"
Evan thought for a moment and said, "Tomorrow!" I guess Eddard will be here tonight. ”
"Hmm!"
After the conversation was over, Evan began to write letters. He was now desperate to know what was going on on the other side of the Wall. If he catches a strange ghost or ghoul, he doesn't need to ingest the Seven Realms regime.
With the deterrence of strange ghosts, I believe that the Seven Realms will definitely support the Great Wall. And as the economic ruler of the north, he will inevitably be able to gain a great voice in the coalition forces!
After writing the letter, Ewen sent it out with a raven, and after waiting for about an hour, the guard returned, and he walked up to Evan: "My lord, I have finished what you have explained!" ”
"Then you go down, and if anyone visits, you can invite him to meet me!"
"Yes, sir!"
Daisy had gone down to gather the fifty soldiers she had brought back, and she would be back tomorrow. The difference is that this time she will take the team and the purchased supplies, as well as the caravan from Bear Island, to the east and then return to Bear Island by boat. This time it only took twenty days, unlike the thirty days it took for Evan to travel from the North to King's Landing!
