"What's wrong? Is something wrong?"

Wenda asked.

"There's nothing wrong with that."

Titus smiled and said, "It's just that old the Fox is indeed old the Fox. He failed to marry his daughter Melissa to Dornish Marches. He had other thoughts, so he turned around and climbed to a new height for Florent."

Allister has indeed been eyeing Duke Dragonstone for a long time.

Moreover, this matter was really accomplished by him. He successfully recruited a duke's son-in-law named "Bila Theon" for Brightwater Keep's House Florent.

I heard that Allister's eldest daughter Melissa has never remarried since she became a widow. Instead, she has the idea of converting to Seven.

Titus thought to herself, anyway, as long as she doesn't become a believer of the "Goddess of the Night" or the "God of Steam and Machinery"----

Stannis's wedding will be held in Storm's End, the ancestral home of House Baratheon. King Robert I also plans to attend in person and visit his hometown to visit relatives.

After counting the time, Titus thought of another wedding that was about to happen this year, far away Westerlands "the Imp" Tyrion·Lannister and his brother Jaime·Lannister, who are returning home on leave, will encounter a story about a hero saving a beauty, and will privately marry the heroine in the story, a peasant girl named Tysha.

The subsequent "liveliness" of that wedding was probably even worse than that of Storm's End.

Lord Tywin found out that his youngest son had married a daughter of a small farmer with no background without his consent, and he immediately became furious.

In order to "teach a lesson" to his youngest son Tyrion, who he had always hated, and to maintain House Lannister's dignity, he ordered the guards of Casterly Rock to rape his son's bride Tysha one by one, and Tyrion, who was ignorant and kept in the dark, was the last one to go.

He, who has never been very confident about himself, will be told: Tysha is just a bitch who pretends to be innocent and is a "coming-of-age gift" given to him by Tyrion's brother Jaime.

Afterwards, Tysha, who was slandered as a prostitute, received a "payment" and Lord Tywin also sent her to "where a prostitute should go."

This experience will become an indelible shadow in Tyrion·Lannister's life.

Unfortunately, due to his status, Titus cannot interfere with Westerlands's affairs, and can only choose to attend Stannis's wedding.

He asked the secretary in white who had a dedicated desk in his study to reply to Storm's End on his behalf to finalize the attendance arrangements.

After thinking about it, Titus is going to take Wenda, Beworth, two attendants who have made good progress in their studies recently, and Earl guards to attend the wedding----

The wedding date is approaching, and Titus's eastbound team has officially set off.

Three Earl, Nightsong, Harvest Hall, and Blackhaven, took the initiative to join the team of guardians.

Only Stonehelm Earl Gulian Shiwen is still the least "gregarious" among the frontier lords.

He specially wrote to the guardian Dornish Marches, explaining that his territory is very close to Storm's End and he would go there by himself.

Titus just smiled at this and didn't care much.

He now looks at Gulian Siwen, a bit like the lead singer of the Da Leiyin Temple rock band looks at Walker Sun.

Due to the arrival of the king, Storm's End had many more guests from Crownlands. The castle was decorated with lights and colorful decorations inside and outside, making it very lively.

On the dark city wall, the golden stag of House Baratheon and the fiery red the Fox of Brightwater Keep are hung.

In the castle, nobles and knights came and went in an endless stream, and there was laughter and laughter everywhere.

As soon as Titus entered the grand hall of Storm's End, he greeted and reminisced with the familiar Stormlands nobles.

There are Fawn Hall's Cavron Earl, "Greybeard" from All Seeing City, Sir Ronald Clinton from Griffin Castle - of course, not to mention Starpike's close partner on the east coast, Tarth's Selwyn Tarth Earl, and his younger brother Andrew Tarth.

Sir Andrew Towers once fought with Robert and Eddard in the Harrenhal tournament until the last moment of the group competition. He was a real good knight.

Since Gardon Tarth is not dead, he did not go to the Great Wall to "vigil" as he originally did. Instead, he took over the position of coach after the Evenfall Hall's old coach Goodwin passed away due to illness.

Brother Selwyn Earl's face was full of joy when he saw his son and nephew Gardon whom he had not seen for a long time. The two of them took the boy and looked him up and down and praised him repeatedly, "You have grown a lot taller and stronger. It seems that Lord Titus has worked hard."

Gardon, who was extremely outgoing, immediately began to boast proudly. As he spoke, he did not forget to pull the cold-faced Jero Dayne beside him and introduce him to his family, "This is my good brother Jero Dayne. His swordsmanship is superb and he is not inferior to me!"

Selwyn Earl smiled and nodded, and casually talked about interesting things about his sister Brienne from Caledon, his words full of love.

Gardon's mind twitched, and he turned around and asked his friend, "Jero, do you want a wife or not? My sister Brienne is quite cute!"

As soon as these words came out, the cold-faced Jero, who was not sociable, blushed instantly and stood there helplessly, so embarrassed that he wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in.

As a social phobic who pretends to be cold, this is the consequence of making friends with a socially phobic lunatic, and your defenses will be broken anytime and anywhere.

Selwyn Earl got a headache while dealing with his energetic and outspoken son.

This guy is really capable!

At first, he was still thinking about his son who had been away from home for a long time. After just a short while, he felt that the half-grown boy in front of him was too annoying, and he was far less well-behaved than Brienne at home----

Selwyn let his younger brother deal with his talkative son, and looked around, secretly admiring Starpike Earl for his good dancing skills.

In just a moment, Titus was already chatting and laughing with several Stormlands lords. It was obvious that he had a very wide network of contacts here.

Titus went to say hello to the landlord here and the king's younger brother.

Storm's End Duke Renly·Baila Theon is one year younger than Viserys·Targaryen opposite Narrow Sea. This child's features already have the rudiments of his future handsomeness, and his personality is also very gentle and lovable.

While Titus was accepting the admiration and compliments from younger brother Renly, he raised his eyes and looked away, and saw King Robert chatting side by side with today's groom, Stannis.

There is still some distance between the two people's expressions. This may be the way the two brothers get along in private.

Titus thought to himself: It seems that the relationship between the two brothers has really eased. Otherwise, Robert would not have chosen Storm's End as the venue for Stannis's wedding.

Baila Theon The three brothers have very different personalities.

This is no longer a secret in the aristocratic circle.

In war, Robert is brave and fearless, and is the most convincing in facing difficulties;

The future Renly is polite, never bullies others, and is deeply loved by his subordinates and civilians;

Only Stannis, no one likes him.

The latter has a harsh and stubborn temperament, and is very strict in his actions. It is indeed difficult to like him, including his biological brother, who is not very close to him.

In this regard, Storm's End's chief the Smith Donald Noy once made an exquisite comment.

Tang Na is very familiar with all three members of the Lu family. The pair of pointed hammers that Robert wore when he went to the battlefield at the beginning of the year, as well as the first sword in Stannis's life, were all made by him.

Donner once said to Titus, "If Robert is real steel, it is strong and tough and can withstand repeated tempering----

Then Stannis is a piece of pure iron, which is black, hard and strong, but also easy to damage. Like iron, it will break before it is bent.

As for Renly, it is like shining bright copper. It looks beautiful and eye-catching, but in fact it is not worth much money."

Donald Noy is a warrior that Titus met after relieving the siege of Storm's End.

During the interception of Baelor·Hightower, Donner suffered a slight ax wound. However, the wound later became inflamed and ulcerated. In desperation, he had no choice but to amputate his entire left arm to save his life. This is the medical level of Westeros. When encountering difficult wounds, he would always amputate.

Losing one of the two arms of the hammer also meant that Donner lost his balance. The Smith's skills were halved. Donner, who was used to holding the hammer with both hands to hit the forging surface, could no longer make iron.

He is a very self-respecting person and does not want to accept House Baratheon's support in vain. He originally planned to go to the Wall to become a craftsman officer for the men in black.

But Titus, who knew the situation, came forward, stopped him, and asked him to work as a steward at Starpike.

After using Master Tob's corrugated steel recasting skills as bait, Donald Noye, who had devoted his life to blacksmithing, could not resist the temptation.

Now Tangner has served as an assembly line manager in Starpike's arsenal, and has taught his blacksmithing skills to more workers.

Craftsman, it can be regarded as opening a new chapter in his career.

Titus smiled and turned away from the ten-year-old Duke who "looks beautiful but is actually not worth much", turned around and stepped forward to join the conversation between Robert and Stannis.

As early as when he arrived at Storm's End, he met Robert.

Even though they haven't seen each other for a while, these blood alliance brothers who fought side by side on the battlefield of the uprising are still not unfamiliar at all.

"Why didn't you bring your beautiful queen and two precious daughters?"

Titus joked as soon as he opened his mouth.

Robert's face froze, as if he had something to hide, but he returned to his usual boldness in an instant, burst out laughing, and patted Titus's shoulder with his backhand. "Elia Your health is not good, and your children are still young----don't mention them. But you, let alone a daughter, don't even have a wife so far. Do you want me to help you find one at Crownlands or Vale?"

After he asked with a smile, his tone became even more playful. "Anyway, as long as your name is reported, even the nobles of Riverlands will rush to marry their daughters to you! Hahahaha----"

Damn it, forget about the people who wrote letters urging marriage before, and now they are being urged in front of you here?

Titus took the king's big hand away from his shoulder angrily, thinking:

Hey, as expected, occasions like "wedding" are the most dangerous----

The three brothers of the Lu family:
