Crag Rock, located on the western coastline at the northern end of the Westlands, is the castle of the Westerling family. Due to lack of money, the castle has not been repaired for many years, and from the outside it looks like a ruin on a cliff.

Early morning. The main fort in the city. Den.

Count Gavin sat at a desk.

He had spent the night last night in the study, which had a small bed, but he had insomnia and had not slept all night.

The Count frowned, his hair was disheveled, his big black beard was also a mess that he had not had time to comb, and the long beard on his chin was curly.

The desk in front of him was peeling from paint, and on it sat an ancestral map of Crag Rock City's territory.

The map has three colors: red in the outermost area, blue in the middle, and black in the innermost area near Rock City.

There are more than a dozen small red tofu blocks on the map, which are signs that Count Gavin and his deceased father have betrayed the territory passed down from their ancestors.

Every time a piece of land was sold to supplement the family, Earl Gavin and his father, who had not yet died, used a red pen to erase the location on the ancestral map.

Looking at a dozen red blocks of various sizes, Count Gavin hoped that one day he would revive his family and buy back the land he had sold for a high price.

There are nine blue squares behind the red tofu blocks, which are due to the lack of money and the marks that were pledged to the nearby nobles. If you don't take the money to redeem these nine places within the stipulated time, then the blue color of these nine places will quickly turn into a red mark.

Gavin is not very old, in the prime of his thirties, but he already has crow's feet at the corners of his eyes and forehead lines on his forehead. Although the burden of the family is very heavy, and the money is becoming more and more difficult to earn day by day, in order to maintain the pomp and glory of the family and the honor of the ancient nobles, none of the servants in his family have been reduced. As long as the family goes out, the things they wear and the jewelry they wear are still very high-end and exquisite.

The Count looked at the map in front of him, holding a quill in his hand and a small red bottle of paint water in front of him. His quill dangled slowly around the map.

The family was in dire need of money, and Earl Gavin was going to sell a small piece of land to the Marbran family in Imprint City, about a hundred miles to the south.

The Earl of Malbran's own sister was married to Tigate Lannister, the second brother of Tywin Lannister, a famous warrior of the Seven Kingdoms and the best of the four Duke Tywin's brothers, but he had the misfortune to die of smallpox a few years earlier. He has a very good relationship with the little demon Tyrion.

Count Gavin sighed deeply at the ancestral map, and decided to sell a piece of land for another bargain, and his pen was about to scribble, but, coco! There was a very polite knock on the door outside.

The Westerlings were very polite, and the servants were trained to be very cultured.

"Wait a minute!" said Count Gavin.

"Yes, sir!" said a soft female voice at the door.

Count Gavin got up and went to the dressing mirror, and after a while he had finished changing his clothes, and had taken care of his hair and beard, so that he looked like the two of them had just sighed and were soulless.

"Come in!" said Count Gavin, who sat back at his desk, the map rolled up and gently placed in the drawer of his desk.

A cleanly dressed and dignified maid stepped in, landing silently and in an elegant voice: "Your Excellency, Lord Tywin Lannister of Castle Rock City has a letter. ”

"Give me the letter!" said Count Gavin, smiling.

Even to his own servants, Count Gavin showed the well-bred side of a true nobleman.

"Yes, sir. The maid handed a parchment scroll into the hands of Count Gavin.

Count Gavin did not open the letter, he watched the maid leave the study, watched the maid gently close the door, and then slowly unfolded the letter from Duke Tywin.

His gaze fell on the letter and he was stunned, a little incredulous. He closed his eyes slightly, slowly opened them again, read the letter again slowly, and as his gaze moved, a smile slowly bloomed on Count Gavin's face, a bright smile that had not been seen for a long time.

After breakfast, eight guards and two servants rode out of Rock City on horseback and in a carriage hung with a curtain of noble silk fabrics.

The carriage was spacious and upscale, with four good horses pulled, and two well-dressed grooms sat in the chariot drive.

There were two people sitting in the carriage, one was Earl Gavin, and the other was Jane Westerling, a beautiful woman dressed with bright eyes and teeth.

Jenny has a slender figure, a standard S shape, and in terms of the evaluation of her in her heart, Jenny is beautiful and moving, and her figure hidden under the skirt is sexy and sultry, which meets the definition of beauty in this world and the beauty standard in Grego's heart.

She has long, naturally curly chestnut hair, a very beautiful heart-shaped face, and amber eyes. What is even more appreciated by the nobles of this world is that Jenny has a fat hip, which is a sign of good fertility and a trait that young unmarried women in this world want to have, which can help them win the competition with the opposite sex. But in Gregor's eyes, this is called backward hips, which has little to do with good birth, mainly sexy.

Jenny wore a knitted silk dress from across the Narrow Sea, elegant and beautiful, and her style was charming. But men can always see through a woman's flowing skirt and see the more precious physical beauty covered by a woman's skirt.

"Father, I've always felt a little uneasy in my heart. Jenny said softly, her eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"Don't worry, how many girls in the Seven Kingdoms want to be Tywin Lannister's adopted daughter. "Count Gavin was in high spirits. Climbing to the Lannister's family was a dream of Earl Gavin.

“...... Father, why did Duke Tywin suddenly want to take me as a righteous daughter? Is there anything else we don't know about......

Earl Gavin looked at his radiant daughter with pity: "Son, even if Duke Tywin has anything, you have become his daughter, what are you afraid of? In addition, the adoption ceremony will be held in the Seven Holy Churches of Castle Rock City, and the Templar priests, nuns, Potter University Scholars, and knights and knights of Castle Rock will come to observe the ceremony. This is the honor of our family and a signal that our family will rise. ”

"Father, I don't understand!"

"Haha, my dear daughter, think about it, after the ceremony, you will be the youngest daughter of Duke Tywin. Who is Duke Tywin, the richest man in the Seven Kingdoms, even the royal treasury of King's Landing owes him millions of gold dragons. And you, as his daughter, will not marry you in the future, if you are not from a big aristocratic family like the duke, who can be worthy of you? An ordinary nobleman, who would dare to propose marriage? Since you are his daughter, he will not see you unable to marry. Haha, hahaha, my dear daughter, it is up to you for our family to prosper in the future. ”
