Night.

Edwin slept soundly.

He strengthened the guards, and the guards of the drawbridges and gates also sent his own men.

He didn't believe Will.

He was impressed by the outfits and eyes of the savages.

Aristocrats and savages on an equal footing? I don't know what Robb Stark thinks. The people of the North are under pressure to survive, and most of them have done anything to fight against the ghosts.

Edwin didn't believe the orders that Will had sent Shereen, even though the King's Seals seemed genuine.

Not long after Shireen was proclaimed king, Will and Robb have been in the north, and Her Majesty Shireen was proclaimed king on Dragonstone Island, the two sides are separated from each other, thousands of miles apart, how can it be that Will has His Majesty Shireen ordered him to be responsible for carrying out the national government orders?

Ravens can deliver letters, but the transmission of this command is too unreasonable to extrapolate from the perspective of time.

There's something strange about it!

Edwin was suspicious of His Majesty's orders that Will had taken out, but since the King's Seal was genuine, he had no choice but to keep his mouth shut.

After setting up a difficult problem for Will, Will's chief of general affairs, Green, said that he would be able to give him a satisfactory answer in one night, and Edwin was wary.

So he persuaded his grandfather, Stevren, to open the gates early the next morning to let Will and them into the city.

Of course, before entering the city, he would first get the conditions that Will and others gave him satisfactory. If the other party can't give it, I'm sorry, he has already thought of a reason why they can't enter the city.

Edwin has the treacherous temperament of old Walder Frey. Old Wald Frey knows underground, and he will definitely be blind.

In order to prevent accidents at night, Edwin did not sleep in his usual bedroom, but slept in the basement of the castle, and sent guards to protect him. He changed places temporarily, and no one told him.

Although not seen during the day, Edwin knew that Will had griffons, which were said to have grown up, and it was easy for them to fly across the moat.

It's just that the griffin is not a dragon and can't spit fire, and no matter how strong the griffin is, it will still be injured in the face of dense bows and arrows.

Two griffons could not break through the gates and lower the drawbridge at night, and only a few of them could sneak across the moat. The two sides are still in peace negotiations, and if the griffons attack rashly at night, it will be Will's complete abandonment of cooperation with the Freys. This possibility is not there, because with two griffons and two people on the back of the griffin, it will be difficult for Will to break through the Twin Cities.

If the government of the fight against the Wraiths had only just been carried out and they had failed, it would be even more difficult to convince the other nobles, and the nobles of the Vale and the West would not be willing to go to the Great Wall to die, and certainly would not mind if the Night's Watch and the Wildlings cooperated to keep the Wraiths at bay for them.

In front of Edwin's bed, there is a portrait of his grandfather, Wad Frey, who he admires, and every time Edwin is faced with something important, he will ask himself in his heart: If Grandpa Wad was to deal with this matter, what would he do?

*

In his sleep, Edwin felt someone blowing in his ear.

He was startled and sat up suddenly, there was a man sitting at the head of the bed, and a man standing in the middle of the house, and his whole body was suddenly covered in cold sweat.

A familiar voice was gentle: "Don't be afraid, Sir Edwin, you are Ryman's eldest son, Steffron's eldest grandson, and the future patriarch and heir of the Twin Cities. ”

"Lord Will, we are not enemies. Edwin immediately said the point. He is more alert and reactive than his admired grandpa, Walder Frey.

Will's sword went down his throat.

"Oh, but we're the Night's Watch with the Wildlings, so how can we be on an equal footing with Sir Edwin against the Strangers. ”

"Winter has arrived, the strange ghosts are coming, we in Twin River City will follow the orders of His Majesty Shireen to contribute money and efforts, and I will also follow the call of Lord Weir and lead five hundred cavalry to follow the adults to carry out the government affairs against the strange ghosts throughout the country. ”

In the territory of a nobleman who owns a large territory, there is one of Will's orders from His Majesty Shireen: the nobles must send 500 cavalry to follow Will to carry out the government affairs against the strangers throughout the country. The specific strength of the army can be increased or decreased according to the strength of the nobles.

"He's lying, Lord Will. The man in the house said coldly.

A woman's voice, face obscured by the shadow of the hood.

"As soon as Edwin gets out, he's going to fight back at all gear. The woman continued.

Edwin hated her to death.

"Who are you? How do you know that I am not telling the truth, the old and new gods are above, I swear to you with the honor of my family, I will definitely lead five hundred cavalry to follow Lord Will to carry out the government of the whole country, the strangers are the common enemies of the human race, and the freedmen to fight the strangers together is the most correct alliance. Moreover, we can let the freedmen be cannon fodder. ”

Edwin changed the name of the Savage to that of the Freedman. He took into account that Will called the wildlings freedmen, so he made a change, Will was very respectful of the freedmen, Edwin thought that it was not really respect, it must be to make the freedmen willing to be substitutes for the Strangers when fighting the strangers, so that the Night's Watch and the Seven Nations Alliance would survive.

"Get up!" Will said lightly, "Edwin, I don't need you to swear in front of us, and I don't swear in front of your family honor, we just need you to swear in front of a little thing." ”

"What's the little thing?"

"Come with us. ”

"Yes, sir. "Edwin's martial arts are mediocre, while Will's martial arts have become famous in the Seven Kingdoms during the Battle of the West.

Will keel sword into the sheath.

Edwin Frey breathed a sigh of relief, and he got up, realizing that he was drenched in cold sweat.

How did Will manage to make a careful plan, but Will could have entered the castle in the middle of the night and capture him?

Edwin knew that griffons could fly over moats and fly anywhere above the castle, but there were only a lot of people that griffons could send over, and griffons were not dragons and could not breathe fire to slaughter cities. It wasn't hard for the griffons to get Will and the mysterious woman into the castle, but how could they find Edwin?

"What would Grandpa Walder Frey do if he were faced with this situation?" Edwin asked himself.

As soon as Edwin came out of the bedroom, he smelled blood, and his guards were lying in pools of blood, some of them had terrible cuts in their necks from sharp metal, some were slanderous wounds to their chests, wounds pierced their hearts, and sharp objects pierced through their front and back armor, and the area of the wounds was large.

Edwin felt himself shivering.

Will's keel sword was thin and sharp, but it was impossible to stab such a terrible wound. That terrible weapon ignores the armor's defenses!

If it wasn't Will's shot, who would it be?

Is it this mysterious woman shrouded in shadows?

It had to be her.

Otherwise, Will wouldn't have appeared with her.

Edwin could see that the woman was not armed.

Black magic!

Edwin thought of the dark arts.

Only dark magic could kill his guards so sharply and silently.

But there's the question of who brought Will and the horrible woman to his temporary abode.

Mole?

So who are the people around him who are the moles?

Edwin, whose mind was spinning rapidly, was once again covered in cold sweat.

He stumbled and almost fell.
