Chapter 37

He was ordered to watch here.

His current identity is an unknown free rider who came to the north with the king.

No loyalty, only serve for money and food.

There are good and bad aspects of this identity.

On the one hand, he doesn't have to follow a nobleman all the time, so he can move more freely and covertly.

But at the same time, he also lost the trust of Winterfell, and many important places would not be opened to him, including his target.

He could only rack his brains every day to get closer to his target - Maester Luwin of Winterfell.

It is said that someone secretly framed the noble Lannister.His task is to monitor the target, so that the vicious villain will not pass a single word of slander to Maester Luwin, let alone Stark hear such rumors.

It's not easy.

The tower where the maester lives is close to the city wall, not far from the Hunter's Gate where people come and go, and the clock tower, kitchen, kennels, and stables are also nearby.

Fortunately, during the day, many people would be moving around Winterfell, so he wasn't conspicuous.But what's the use?The vicious villain will not attack during the day, his battlefield must be at night.

What reason can there be to stay here at night?No.

He can only hide his whereabouts.

Fortunately, he has undergone rigorous training and knows how to sneak quietly without disturbing people and animals.

The only thing he wasn't confident in hiding were the direwolves.

Every time he got close to those evil things, he was always intimidated by their eyes.He had no doubt that as long as he took a few steps forward, those wolf cubs would pounce on him directly.

Fortunately, those wolves were brought by their wolf masters, and they even slept in the main castle far away.

Gods bless.

The action this evening was easy.

He only saw three guards climbing to the hidden stone eaves outside the window of this small two-story building.

He knew it was because His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the two little wolves went deep into the underground tomb, and Caitlin Tully sent a large number of people to search for it, and it is estimated that they have just come out now.

Naturally, the defense on this road is much less.

Thank you His Royal Highness.

As soon as he thought of this, a gust of cold wind blew by, and he could hardly help coughing.

Winterfell at night was really too cold, and he had never experienced such severe cold as he was born on the summer seashore of the Sea of ​​the Setting Sun.

He tried to stretch his limbs against the wall below him.

The hot spring under Winterfell flowed in the walls, and the heat seeped from the stones, which gave him the only comfort.

amazing.

He thought of the "glass garden", which could grow fruits and vegetables and bloom beautiful flowers.

I heard that it is as warm as spring in the south.

The target in the room stood up, he quickly held his breath, and buried his body into a dark corner.

The subject took a book and sat back down.

The subject fell asleep on the desk.

He was not surprised, the old bachelor who read and wrote by candlelight was often busy until late at night, and it was normal for him to take a nap.

He's just a little frustrated.

There was no movement in the surveillance these days, and he began to wonder whether the position Lord Tyrion had arranged for him was important.

After all, the other dozen or so companions also have their own goals.

Although Maester Luwin should be one of Stark's most trusted people, and the main castle is well-defended, there is a high probability that those who want to deliver news will come to Maester Luwin, but the fact is that he has not found anything.

Ugh.

Joffrey on the other side was also helpless.

He didn't know whether he was too demanding, or Lannister's intelligence capabilities were really insufficient.

In short, Tyrion told him more than a dozen names in more than a month. These people were used by Tywin to prevent someone from provoking the relationship between the lion and the gray wolf.

In other words, Joffrey has to deal with Lysa Tully's secret letter in Winterfell.

After finally winning the goodwill of the little wolves, the Stark family is about to become a firm ally. How can a letter ruin everything?
Poor Littlefinger, the root of all evil.

Although he knew that Lannister was prepared, he was completely worried.

Every night, he used spirit runes and reconnaissance runes to keep an eye on the situation of Maester Luwin and Eddard and his wife, for fear that if they accidentally missed the secret letter, the success would fall short.

Fortunately, there is no need for a long sleep to refresh his mind, otherwise he would have died suddenly.

Even so, the nights were tough.

His only adjustments are the few targets he observes.

The Duke and Duchess of Stark are full of energy.

This Lannister agent whose real name is not known can stay all night at one party, which is a talent.

Maester Luwin is a typical maester.The thin old man with gray hair and gray eyes had no private entertainment, he was busy reading letters, writing letters, reading books, feeding crows, and completing various tasks assigned by the Duke.

After seeing Maester Luwin's daily life these days, Joffrey could not help but mourn for the second sons of the nobles of Westeros.

In order to prevent too many contradictions in the family inheritance, most of the second sons without inheritance rights became bachelors, monks, and night watchmen.

These occupations all require them to be sterile, to give up fiefdoms and titles.

Even the Kingsguard Bran dreamed of since he was a child, the most glorious existence among knights, happened to be infertile.

It can be seen how much the noble lords value the complete inheritance of the family territory.

Joffrey decides to fight for the rights of the second sons.The more scattered and weak the power of the nobles, the more at ease the king can live.

A figure suddenly burst into Joffrey's field of perception.

Joffrey immediately perked up.

finally come?

The figure in the "Vision" paused step by step, watching the movement around him from time to time, obviously not ordinary passing by.

There is an exquisitely carved wooden box in the arms of the figure, which contains a lens, and a letter in the interlayer.

Joffrey watched him make his way toward the maester's tower.

Didn't the spy find out?

Joffrey turned his gaze back to the spy, who fell asleep at such a time!
Isn't this bad luck? !

The ravens in the crow's nest suddenly flew up in groups, hovering silently over the tower.

Something is wrong!Joffrey sensed something.

Three-Eyed Raven?

He quickly ran the information rune to weave a dream for the spy.

The spy woke up suddenly.

I am asleep?Also had two strange dreams?
He believed that his professionalism would not make such a mistake, but at this moment he didn't have time to think about it.

A figure appeared in front of his target.

The figure quietly put down a wooden box and was about to leave.

The target opens its eyes.

The figure immediately fled frantically.

He waited quietly, and the guy ran a few meters below him.

He gripped the dagger tightly and jumped down.

Cut his throat with a knife.

A perfect shot, but he didn't make it.

He looked across the tower to Maester Luwin, who had already picked up the wooden box.

He had to go over and end it all.

The crow became more and more irritable, gradually making hoarse and sharp calls.

Joffrey meets an invisible enemy.

He "looked" towards Bran's bedroom, where Bran slept peacefully, with an inexplicable power lingering around him.

Three-Eyed Raven!

Joffrey blacklisted the dog.

He provoked Bran, even dared to disturb Lao Tzu's subordinates, and alienated the relationship between lions and wolves.

you are done!
