There is no doubt that it has never been easy, let alone pleasant, to negotiate with tywin Lannister, who is serious, stubborn and conservative and full of old-fashioned aristocratic supremacy.

However, Zhang Cheng finally reluctantly reached a secret agreement with him. As for the content, there is nothing except two parties. Of course, everything must pay a corresponding price, especially such a thing that countless nobles desire.

The price Zhang Cheng has to pay is marriage, a marriage agreement that has not been fulfilled for a long time.

According to the secret agreement, he must marry Errol Tyrell before the king's wedding and make him Mason Asplin's lawful wife.

To explain it simply, the old aristocratic forces led by tywin and olena are eager to put a rein around Zhang Cheng's neck through a series of things they think can produce strong binding force, such as feelings, family and children, and then bind it firmly with their own interests with the help of this rein.

It has to be said that if they change to another person, their strategy is highly likely to succeed.

After all, not all men are cold enough to ignore a young, beautiful, gentle and noble wife. As long as the two sides live together long enough, even a piece of ice will slowly melt.

Unfortunately, Zhang Cheng's indifference is completely different from the indifference in the ordinary sense. He has no idea of integrating into the world from beginning to end, and even does not regard the people in the world as his own kind.

Although he is not sure whether this strange state of mind stems from the self-protection in the depths of his subconscious mind, or whether the brain forcibly distorts his understanding of the outside world in order to reduce the strong sense of guilt caused by killing. In short, it is this unusual state of mind that allows him to avoid many unnecessary troubles, such as the conflict of morality, world outlook and values, Another example is the attitude towards death

Just a few hours before the wedding in King's landing City, a large fleet had been quietly docked on the sea for many days in the southwest corner of Westeros.

As the commander of the fleet, viktalion grejoy was anxiously waiting for the signal.

You know, in order to hide their whereabouts as much as possible, his iron species have not stopped at the port for replenishment for a long time. There are only less than three-day quotas for food, fresh water and wine.

If there is no signal of attack within three days, the fleet that has been hard put together will fall apart in an instant. The iron people who always put survival first will loot every village and port in the surrounding areas to meet their needs for food and fresh water.

Once the looting starts, the Lords of the shield islands will get the news in a few hours at most, and the sneak attack on the old town has become an impossible goal.

"Damn it!"

At the thought of his ambition being destroyed, viktalion raised his fist and smashed the table.

Although the poor guy didn't know it at all, the strong attachment to the old town in his mind was not his original intention, but the charm pocket watch.

"Captain! It's no way to wait like this! Why don't we withdraw one after another and loot the Lannister family's territory. It's said that gold is produced in the west, we don't have to stare at the old town." the chief officer suggested in a low voice.

He could feel that with less and less food and water, the whole fleet was like a volcano about to erupt, and it was uncertain when a rebellion would erupt.

The only way to calm down the iron people who have accumulated a lot of resentment and anger is to find a robbery target. As long as a successful robbery, everyone will calm down again and obey the orders of the fleet commander.

"No! No! You don't understand! We only have one chance! I will never allow the chance to slip through my fingers!" viktalion shook his head vigorously, followed by the command without looking back: "go! Send someone to see if there is no signal of attack?"

"Alas, it's the same to see it a hundred times..." he sighed helplessly.

But before he turned and left the captain's room, a young sailor hurried over and shouted, "Captain! Captain! There's a signal! A wisp of smoke straight into the sky in the southeast!"

"What?!" viktalion grabbed the telescope, rushed to the deck in three or two steps, raised it and looked into the distance. Sure enough, he saw a wisp of blue smoke in the direction of the shield islands.

He was overjoyed. Without any hesitation, he directly roared at the top of his voice: "anchor! Sail! Order all captains to keep up with the flagship! Today, I want to lead you to loot the richest port city in the mainland - old town! People of the iron islands! Show your courage and ferocity! Let the enemy see who is the master of the sea!"

"Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo hoo

"Shit! I'm going crazy!"

"Come on! Don't fucking procrastinate! Otherwise, you won't want to share the booty later!"

……

For a while, all kinds of shouts, curses and cheers were heard. Every iron man began to operate the warship hard, bypassing the surveillance of the shield islands and heading for the old town according to the route arranged by Zhang Cheng.

They did not find that just a dozen nautical miles away, two fleets of the same size were engaged in fierce fighting. One of them was the Lord of the shield islands and the haitar family, and the other was a miscellaneous fleet composed of countless pirates.

I don't know why the pirates, who have always hated each other, have united together unprecedentedly. Even if they bear huge losses, they have no intention of retreating or defecting.

It was precisely because the battle was so fierce that the fleet commander of the Hattar family was completely unaware that the iron fleet had just passed under his eyes.

In a few hours at most, at sunset, viktalion will arrive near the old town and launch an unprecedented sneak attack.

In this attack, the heitar family with a long history will be uprooted, permanently withdraw from the historical stage, and the school city will be completely destroyed. Except for a few knowledge and records related to magic, all the rest will be burned.

Of course, the iron archipelago fleet, as a chess piece, will be completely destroyed by one afterwards. Outsiders will only know that the iron archipelago looted the old town and killed all members of the haitar family
