Chapter 33 Dragon Song of the Red Mountains (End of this volume)

In Midsummer Plains, the originally empty wilderness has now been occupied by densely packed tents. Temporary fences and wooden walls have formed an extremely spectacular city of wood, canvas, and cowhide. People are building roads step by step.

"If nothing else, this prince is really rich." A man in silk clothes sat on a chair, looking at the lively crowd outside the tent, and couldn't help but sigh. Although the city has not yet begun formal construction, some facilities already exist, such as taverns in tents, hotels, blacksmith shops, schools, and some unspeakable places. Long Zell brought back not only men, but also women and children.

"What did Earl Cullen say?" The speaker was also a young man wearing a high collar and silk clothes embroidered with black and white swans. He had just drank a glass of strong beer with pepper and was now slowly digesting the slight taste of the wine. Some weird smell.

"The old man doesn't dare to say anything." The older Stannis Storm, the bastard from Nightsong City, smiled bitterly and poured himself a glass of beer. "The Dondarrion family has openly backed our new frontier. Governor, if it is not bound by an oath, I can guarantee that he can swear allegiance to the prince at any time. No matter how strong Ye Song City is, it will not be able to defeat two, oh no, three, or soon five-headed dragons."

"Be more rigorous." Eric Storm, the bastard from Stonehelm City, corrected: "The two dragons that can fight, Prince Rey, Prince Jakaris and Prince Luthris are all too young, oh, maybe Prince Jakaris' Womax can join the battle, but the only ones that can threaten the castle are Bronze Fury and Silver Wings."

After hearing their discussion, the silver-haired owner of the tent tavern placed a plate of roast lamb in front of them. "If you two are nobles from other territories, you can go directly to the longhouse in the center of the town, where food and accommodation will be provided."

Stannis Storm nodded to the boss: "We are just passing by to replenish our supplies. Thank you His Highness for your kindness."

"If necessary, you can go directly to the longhouse." Seeing that the two people ignored him, the boss still said a word and poured them new wine.

"Valyrian?" Eric Storm asked doubtfully.

"It looks like they are Valyrian or at least have Valyrian blood. Most of the people our young prince brought back have more or less Valyrian blood."

"Then shall we..."

"Stop dreaming." The older Stannis Storm ruthlessly shattered Eric's illusions. "Don't Stonehelm teach bastards common sense?"

"Okay." Stannis Storm explained: "Ordinary Valyrian people are mortals, and there are a lot of them in the Eastern Continent. If you have the money to go to Lys, you can get a few beauties with silver hair and purple eyes, but The Dragon King is a god." Stannis had a look of awe in his eyes. He gulped down the new wine. "My old man will most likely come to see the prince in a while, and then he will have to find a way to deal with the wrath of Sir Boros of Storm's End."

"Alas." Young Eric also thought of this meaning. Among the nobles of the Eastern Frontier, the Dondarrion family has effectively become members of the Varese family. Longzel and the others live in Blackport City. Still, Boros of Storm's End couldn't reach out. The Selmy family of Harvest Hall was weak and was naturally a mere grassroots. The Morgan family of Crow's Nest and the Clinton family of Falcon's Nest had already been fully integrated. The storm land noble system, although they are located in the frontier, are not as eager for military protection as the families on the front line.

In the end, only Nightsong City and Stonehelm City were left to express their stance, especially Stonehelm City. In order to collect the fiefdom for Longzell, the Iron Throne purchased a lot of territory from the Shiwen family in Stonehelm City.

Naturally, the Sven family hopes to one day get back the lost meat from the Dornish people.

Listening quietly to the conversation of the two illegitimate children, a man in the tent was cutting roasted venison with a knife and thinking thoughtfully.

The man had a neatly combed beard and was wearing a green hunter's costume. His cloak was slightly dusty but still clean. He was carrying something tightly wrapped in cloth on his back. When he came in, the boss tried to persuade him to put it on his back. The things he brought were placed at the entrance of the tent, but the man sternly refused and promised many times that there would be no trouble, so the boss placed him in the corner of the tent.

If he hadn't said it, no one would have guessed that this old hunter-like man was Earl Donald Tully of Horn Hill, coming to hunt his sons and daughters.

He deliberately placed his attendants in another tavern and entered the town separately to avoid attracting too much attention. You can also lower the vigilance of diners in the same tavern by yourself and hear more information.

For example, there are two undecided families in the Eastern Frontier.

For example, Count Tully also had other thoughts.

Donald Tully thought about the situation on the western frontier today. The Tyrell family in the Reach has always been weak, and now it is firmly suppressed by the Hightower family. It has long since ceased to be the hero that the princes of the Western Frontier longed to lead them into the Dorne Desert again. The Baker family, which owns a vast territory, has also been quite aggressive in recent years, especially the small lords who are keen to connect the western frontiers. I don't know what An's intentions are.

But the most important thing right now is to find his children.

Earl Donald has many children and outstanding abilities. His eldest daughter Samantha is a bold and free-spirited one who married Lord Mond of the Hightower family. His second daughter Sansara, who is well-educated and strong, is still unmarried. The third daughter Diana and the eldest son and heir Alan ran away this time.

Earl Donald did not expect that his son and daughter, who had always been obedient, would run away from home. He was furious and finally directed the problem to himself under the comfort of his wife and second daughter. He found that he was too rough and unsympathetic in educating his children.

So this time, in addition to meeting the new governor of the borderland, Longzel, he also had to reconcile with his children who were said to have appeared in Midsummer Plain.

"Boss." Donald put the last piece of barbecue into his mouth and waved to the boss. "How do I get to the longhouse?"

"In the center of the town, go out of this area and go around the avenue and keep going."

"Thank you." Earl Donald waved to the boss politely, took his horse from the stable boy, and slowly walked towards the longhouse.

Two dragon shadows, one gold and one silver, passed through the sky, and Earl Donald couldn't help but narrow his eyes and look in the direction where the dragons were flying.

From his perspective, he could clearly see two dragons flying towards the huge castle that had taken shape, and further carved the details of the castle with dragon flames.

Earl Donald Tully sighed and continued to walk towards the longhouse.

"Dad, have you thought about it?"

A familiar voice sounded from behind, and Earl Donald turned around suddenly, and his daughter was standing behind him.

"Diana, have you forgiven Dad?"

Diana smiled playfully and did not answer directly. "Dad, His Royal Highness the Prince's spectacle of burning the castle is not something you can see every day, you might as well watch it more."

"How did you know Dad was coming?"

"Since you crossed the mountain pass, our people knew you were coming, and many nobles in the border areas also sent family members to observe." Diana looked at the castle that was gradually taking shape with some obsession.

"Sooner or later, no, soon there will be a great castle here that is no less than any castle in the Seven Kingdoms. Dad, don't you want to come and participate in this grand event?"

Earl Tarly listened to his daughter's words and looked thoughtfully in the direction of Dragon's Nest.
