A month later. Westside. Crag Rock City.

In the distance, Duke Edmus Tully, who was riding on a tall horse, saw the majestic city wall and the dense pennants on the wall.

"Ma'am, the walls are much higher!" said Edmure to Elenia Westerling, who was in the carriage.

"Edmure, Crag Rock was completely renovated a year ago, and the walls of the city have collapsed a few years ago, and they have already been repaired. My eldest brother Renard raised all the original walls by a few feet, and built new battlements, archery holes, and murder holes. The number of soldiers in Crag Rock City has also increased from the original 500 to the current 5,000. ”

"I've heard that the territory has also expanded a lot, so how much has it expanded?"

"Four years ago, with the help of his brother-in-law, my father had recovered all his original territory, and now he has expanded two hundred and fifty li to the north and more than seventy li to the east and south. To the north is to the sea, and to the east and west are bordered by the Castelme and Tarbek rooms. ”

"Oh, are the lords convinced?" Edmure was a little surprised. In a short period of time, Crag Rock City has expanded so many territories at once, and after the Demon Mountain became the king, sure enough, the Westerling family's chickens and dogs have ascended to heaven.

A chuckle from Elenia Westerling came from the carriage: "Edmure, the Westerlings of Crag Rock City have never taken advantage of it, and our family motto is a disgraceful and dishonorable thing, and we never bother to do it. ”

"Ma'am, are you saying that the lords of those lands are voluntarily subordinate to House Westerling?" said Edmure with a smile. His laughter was full of teasing.

"Exactly!" replied Madame Elenia.

Edmus laughed.

Norris Clegane, the captain of the guard, said, "Lord Duke, as far as I know, the lords near Crag Rock City have indeed voluntarily submitted to the Westerling family. ”

Edmuha laughed and said, "Norris, I naturally know that what Madame said is true. I'm laughing at the fact that the lords are just some small people clinging to the powerful, and I am afraid that there are not many loyal and brave people among them. The Magic Mountain became the king, there was a dragon flying in the air, and there was a Red Smoke Beast on the ground, he was a divine envoy, a messenger of light, the Clegan army was strong, and the Demon Mountain served as the Minister of Military Affairs of the Seven Kingdoms, and the small lords near Crag Rock City had bullied the Westerling family in the past and fell in decline, and they all came to take advantage, but now the situation has reversed, so they all saw the wind and steered, and volunteered to wag their tails to be dogs. Hehe, the people of the north of the western realm are not as strong and loyal as the vassals of my riverlands. ”

There was irony in Edmure's words.

"Lord Duke, the vassals of the Riverlands are indeed loyal and brave, such as the Frey family in Twin River City, who trampled on the power of their guests and brazenly conspired to arrange the bloody wedding. Had it not been for His Majesty, the Stark family in the North and his most loyal vassals would have been killed. Among them, there is also your sister, Lady Caitlyn Tully. Elenia chuckled unhurriedly.

Edmure Tully choked for breath.

"And Harrenhal, which used to be a fief of the Riverlands, has now become the domain of Petyr Berish, the Littlefinger, and the Eye Lake, which has the highest fish resources, has also become a big piece of fat in the Littlefingers' territory. The vassals of the Riverlands are brave and loyal, but unfortunately the Duke of Edmure still failed to keep Harrenhal, which originally belonged to his lord's fiefdom. ”

Edmure's face suddenly turned blue and white, and Harrenhal was a thorn in his heart. In fact, it is not only Harrenhal, but also the Muton family in Female Springs. The Muton family has married an adopted son under the Magic Mountain, and the Earl of Muton has officially proposed to Edmu to submit to the royal territory of the Magic Mountain, which made Edmu so angry that he couldn't sleep for several days and nights.

The Muton family in Female Springs is also a thorn in Edmure's heart.

Edmure didn't think that his authority was not enough to intimidate the Muton family, he thought that it was the Magic Mountain who was secretly supporting Count Muton, which was also the place where he had a grudge against the Magic Mountain.

After entering the territory of the Westerling family in Crag Rock City, Edmund did not use honorifics or address His Majesty the King whenever he mentioned the Magic Mountain, but called the Magic Mountain in a playful tone.

After being 'robbed' by Elenia, Edmure was so angry that he couldn't do it. He sneered, "Ma'am, when Sansa's wedding is over, I will ask the Magic Mountain to return to Harrenhal." ”

And, of course, there's the Muton family in Nuquan City. The Muton family swore allegiance to the Tully family, and was a vassal of the Tully family, and must not allow Earl Murton to switch to the Magic Mountain, Nuquan Town has never become a royal territory, not before, and of course not when Edmu is the master of the house.

"Lord Duke, if you smash the Rock City and call me brother-in-law Demon Mountain in person, you will definitely not be able to get Harrenhal back. Madame Elenia asserted.

"Hehe, ma'am, although he is the king of the Magic Mountain, if it is according to Sansa's generation, I am his elder, and if it is according to your generation, I am also his brother-in-law. The Tully family and the Clegane family have long been a family, blood is thicker than water, I call him the magic mountain is the closeness between brothers, is there no disrespect to him?"

"Edmure, the Magic Mountain is already a great and respected king, His Majesty the Duke, and the three free trade city-states of Braavos, Pantos, and Loras on the other side of the Narrow Sea have all submitted to him. He also conquered Kao, the most powerful of the Dothraki steppes, and he was greater than all the kings of Westeros. My dear husband, I think it would be better for you to address him by the honour of His Majesty, both before and after men. ”

The captain of the guard, Norris Klegane, was originally a dead soldier by the side of the Magic Mountain, a pikeman selected by the Magic Mountain from the refugees in King's Landing and then trained and trained to grow up in battle, his loyalty to the Magic Mountain is unshakable, and he said in his heart: Lord Edmure, in the battles of His Majesty the King, the Riverlands did not send troops to follow, and the Lord did not ride a war horse to fight with His Majesty the King, compared to other lords, the Riverlands did not contribute to the establishment of the new kingdom. We are approaching Rock City, and the Duke has spoken of King Gregor Clegan with ridicule and banter, and I advise you to call him His Majesty. ”

However, Norris Clegane, as the captain who protects Elenia, is a vassal of Lord Edmure, and in order to avoid suspicion, he did not say what he had in his heart.

The sound of horses' hooves sounded behind him, and a general with a blackfish badge pinned to his chest rode up on a thin horse, he specially caught up to warn Edmure, along the way, Edmu's words were disrespectful to the Magic Mountain, and now that he is approaching Rock City, he had better pay attention.

"Edmure, in Riverrun, it may not be rude for us to close the door and call the Magic Mountain, but now that we have entered the realm of Crag Rock City, we are about to enter the city, you are the Duke, don't call him the Magic Mountain anymore, he is our Majesty the King, no matter how close and friendly the relationship between you is, and no matter what dissatisfaction you have with the Magic Mountain, the honorific title and salutation can reflect the noble upbringing and honor of the Tully family. ”

Blackfish Brynden Tully, the uncle of Lord Edmure, is also the most famous military officer in the Riverlands. He and Tywin Lannister rose to fame in the same year as a teenager fighting the pirates of the Stonesteps Islands.

Edmure's fear of his uncle has been there since he was a child, and when he saw his uncle's cold and hard face speak, he first had a trace of cowardice in his heart.

Edmux laughed and hid his embarrassment: "Uncle, madam, Sir Norris, I call His Majesty the King the Magic Mountain, but it is just a joke and closeness, and it is not disrespectful. Now that I am close to the city, I will speak honorific words and honorific titles, and I dare not let loose. ”

The sound of horses' hooves in front of him led to the sound of horses' hooves, and a large flag at the head was six white shells on the yellow sand, which was the family crest of the Westerling family.

The leading little general is a little boy with a childish look on his face.

When the boy saw the trout streamers of the Tully family in the procession, he was very happy, and he hurried up his horse and shot it in this direction. The knights and soldiers of the family were afraid that the little master would make a mistake, so they all followed closely and guarded both sides.

The boy with a childish face is Jenny Westerling's youngest brother: Loram Westerling.

"Sister, sister!" called the little one from afar.

When Elenia heard the shouting, she lifted the curtain of the carriage and saw a group of cavalry rushing towards her, led by a young man who was none other than her brother Loram. A smile bloomed on Elenia's beautiful face.

Soon the cavalry came to him, and Loram Westerling saluted Lord Edmure and said a polite word of welcome, and then he came to Elenia's carriage, and jumped directly from his horse into his sister's carriage, and his riding skills were so great that it was evident that he had been taught by a true master of equestrianism.

The two siblings chattered in the local language of Rock City in the carriage.

Reunited after a long absence, the two sisters and brothers are so affectionate!

As the team continued to move forward, a dragon roar came from the sky, and the generals of the Riverland and Lord Edmure looked up together, only to see three dragons flying in the sky—led by a black dragon, a white dragon on the right, and a bronze dragon on the left. These are Daenerys' three children, but now all three children have their own dragon knights, Daenerys Targaryen for the black dragon, Arlene Martell, Lord of Dorne for the white dragon, and Jon Targaryen, the dragon knight for the bronze dragon.

The soldiers of the Riverland saw the three dragons flying through the sky, and everyone was stunned and shocked by the majesty of the three dragons. Most of them have not yet had the opportunity to get up close and personal with dragons.

In the sky, there was no shadow of the Demon Mountain Dragon.

The appearance of the three dragons in the sky indicates that the owners of the three dragons are in Crag Rock, and they have arrived here before Lord Edmure to attend the wedding of Sansa Stark and Renard Westerling.

*

Elenia Westerling looked at the shadows of the three dragons flying away, and her mouth never closed since she opened her mouth.

"Sister, the eldest sister has been back for fifteen days. Loram said in a very secret whisper in his sister's ear.

"Oh?!" Elenia could hear something in her brother's words.

It is not surprising that Jenny Westerling returned from King's Landing to Crag Rock City in advance to prepare for the eldest brother's wedding, it is not a secret, and it is not a surprise, this is normal, but there is an irrepressible excitement in the tone of the younger brother.

What secret does Lorram want to say?

Elenia looked at her younger brother, and sure enough, her younger brother couldn't hold her breath: "Sister, the eldest sister brought back three little dragons." ”

"Three little dragons?" said Elena, surprised and delighted.

"Yes, the day before yesterday, under the guidance of my eldest sister, I personally fed the three little dragons a barbecue. One of them was a small dragon with white stripes and golden spots, and I reached out and touched him gently. He's so beautiful. ”

Elenia almost exclaimed, "God, do the three little dragons belong to the eldest sister?"

"No, my sister said that my brother-in-law was too busy after becoming the king and didn't have time to take care of the three little dragons, so she fed them for the time being. ”

"God, if the three little dragons all belong to the eldest sister, wouldn't you and I be able to share one?"

"Sister, I thought so at the time, but my sister said that the dragon belonged to her brother-in-law, and she was just raising it, and she didn't dare to give it away casually. ”

"Three dragons, one of them must belong to my sister's child, I heard that guy is very strong. Three dragons need three dragon knights, and two dragons need dragon knights. ”

"Sister, you go to my brother-in-law to help me intercede, I want to feed a dragon and grow up with a dragon, I want to become a dragon knight and let the dragon slowly accept me in feeding. ”

"Okay, but I don't know if my brother-in-law will listen to me. ”

"Brother-in-law will. Loram glanced at Edmu next to the carriage and said in a low voice: "Brother-in-law loves you the most, and used a trick to successfully marry you to the Duke of the Tully family, hehe!

Elenia's face turned pale: "Get out!"

Loram was startled, immediately jumped out of the carriage, skillfully turned over his horse, sang something to his sister and brother-in-law, and galloped towards Rock City.

Correct!

A dragon groan that penetrated the heavens and the earth sounded melodiously, and in an instant, between the heavens and the earth, the sound of all things disappeared, and it was the only one filled with this dragon groan with infinite coercion.

Everyone raised their heads, and the war horses under their crotches were uneasy to advance and retreat.

A dragon as large as a golden-red cloud appeared in the sky, and they came from high in the clouds and headed for Crag Rock City. The dragon quickly lowered its height, and the people who looked up saw two figures on the dragon's back.

As if in the blink of an eye, the dragon was getting closer, and the silhouette of the dragon knight's body could already be seen. In another heartbeat, everyone saw the face of the person on the dragon's back clearly, and Tianguang completely left the people at that moment. A huge black shadow enveloped the ranks.

"Brother-in-law!" Edmure shouted. He saw clearly that one of the men on the dragon's back turned out to be his brother-in-law, His Majesty King Eddard Stark.

And the other, of course, is His Majesty King Gregor Clegane.

Before Eddard Stark on the dragon's back could respond, Edmure's voice came up again: "Your Majesty the Great King Gregor Cregan, Edmure salutes you!"
