The journey of film and television world is endless

Clang clang clang, the studio door was knocked. Liu Yuan, who was holding a component and carving patterns on it, frowned and said, "The door isn't locked, come in." A person pushed the door open and walked in. Liu Yuan didn't even raise his head and said, "What's the matter? Speak!"

The person who came was a young apprentice, also Liu Yuan's assistant. Seeing Liu Yuan ask, he said, "I'm very sorry, Scholar Galon disturbed you. I'm on duty at the rookery this month, and this is the latest news. It's from Lannisport, which was attacked by the Ironborn this morning."

Liu Yuan stopped his work, took the transcribed information, and casually tossed a silver moon over, saying, "Tom, right? You did well. Go back and keep an eye on things. Notify me immediately if there's any new information."

Tom took the silver moon, bowed, and said, "Thank you, sir. I'll follow your orders and return to the rookery."

Liu Yuan quickly flipped through the contents above. It turned out that in the early hours of this morning, the Ironborn fleet raided Lannisport and burned the Lannister fleet in the anchorage. Due to limited forces, coupled with the timely reinforcements of the Lannister family's soldiers, the Ironborn did not have time to loot the port. However, the Lannister fleet was almost completely wiped out, and the Westerlands had completely lost their naval power. Liu Yuan smiled contemptuously. The Lannisters really have no memory. Lannisport has been burned by the Ironborn using the same method more than twenty times in history. Don't they know how to learn a lesson?

Originally, Balon Greyjoy believed that King Robert's rule was unstable and did not receive enough support among the nobles. He was unable to organize an army to fight against him, and believed that even if the punitive expedition came, he could defeat the opponent at sea. So he was crowned under the "Nagga's Ribs" presided over by the priests of the Drowned God. Balon wore a driftwood crown and declared himself King of the Iron Islands, leading an army to rebel against the Iron Throne, announcing that the Iron Islands would secede from the Seven Kingdoms and restore the "Old Way" lost by the Ironborn three hundred years ago.

Before declaring the rebellion, Balon sent his two brothers, Euron and Victarion, to lead a fleet to sneak into Lannisport and burn the Lannister family's ships docked in the port. The Lannister family's fleet, accumulated over nearly a hundred years, was destroyed in one fell swoop. Without obstacles, the Ironborn could land anywhere along the coast of the Westerlands.

Liu Yuan felt that these people were out of their minds, not cherishing their good lives and causing trouble. The Iron Islands are just a bunch of fishermen, probably not even able to gather twenty thousand people, yet they dare to challenge the entire Westeros. Arguing with Robert on the east side of the continent is one thing, but they directly attacked the strongest lord in the Seven Kingdoms and immediately went for the kill, offending Tywin to death.

It just so happened that Stannis had spent a lot of effort building the royal fleet, which was not used to attack Dragonstone last time. And the Hightower fleet and Redwyne fleet had been eager to deal with them for years after the Ironborn attacked the Reach. Now, they've directly handed the knife to them.

Liu Yuan guessed correctly, Tywin was Robert's father-in-law. Faced with such a slap in the face, his desire for battle was immediately ignited. Robert secretly rejoiced. He was not good at governing the country but was more enthusiastic about fighting than anyone else. King Robert excitedly issued a mobilization order on the spot, calling on vassals from all over the country to form a punitive expedition. Moreover, Robert himself personally led the army to set out, and at the same time, he ordered Stannis to lead the royal navy to depart from Dragonstone. The King's summons received responses from major nobles including the Stark family, the Lannister family, the Hightower family, and the Redwyne family.

Liu Yuan looked to the north, wondering if this war would affect Becotte's marriage. He seemed to have some impression of Joryl Seven. She attended the Tourney at Harrenhal as Lyanna's companion. She was alright looking, just a bit plump. However, Earl Seven probably wouldn't drag his future son-in-law to war, would he!

In the distant North, a simple castle is nestled in a forest. In fact, it is five round towers connected by walls, surrounded by not-so-high walls. This is Seven's Keep, also the fief of the Seven family.

Seven's Keep doesn't have a large permanent population, which is a common phenomenon in the North. The area is sparsely populated, and castles were originally built for military purposes. On weekdays, the people are distributed in various places for production and life, and only when winter comes will they be concentrated in the castle to resist the harsh external environment.

The usually deserted Seven's Keep is particularly lively today. Not only are the Seven family's servants decorating, but also many residents and merchants are participating. Most of the northerners are descendants of the First Men, with simple customs and straightforward personalities, and they are particularly enthusiastic about celebrations. Hearing that the lord is marrying off his daughter and that there will be a bonfire feast in the evening, people rushed to Seven's Keep, and many clan tribesmen from the mountains and wolfswood also came. For those merchants, it is also a rare feast.

Earl Meek Seven is very happy. He never expected that Earl Setigar, whom he was previously responsible for guarding, would be willing to take the initiative to marry him, and sent a generous betrothal gift.

Becotte arrived at Seven's Keep with a convoy of gifts, a full two hundred large carts, which really amazed these northerners. Earl Seven was overjoyed to see so many weapons and equipment. These things came at just the right time. Just a few days ago, he had just received Duke Eddard's summons. Earl Seven happened to be re-equipping his direct troops, and he could take this opportunity to recruit a group of clan tribesmen and arm them with the replaced weapons. He simply changed his plan and held the wedding for the two in Seven's Keep, and spread the news, also inviting his liege Lord Eddard Stark and a group of friendly lords to attend.

Becotte thought for a moment and agreed. He estimated that Earl Adrian would actively participate in this expedition in order to show his loyalty to King Robert. Even if he returned to Crab Isle, the wedding might not be held on time, so it would be better to get married in the North. Then, he could join his father-in-law's team with his knights and soldiers to participate in the war, and perhaps gain some credit and join forces with his father to seek more benefits.

Late the next day, many people gathered in the godswood of Seven's Keep. Under the largest heart tree, a large group of gorgeously dressed people silently watched the bride walking from one end. Joryl wore a white lady's dress, a blue winter rose wreath on her head, and walked step by step with Earl Meek Seven.

In the center of the venue, a circle was marked out by "candle-lit iron cages with stained glass" hanging from the ceiling. At this time, Becotte was also in full dress, and beside him was Eddard Stark, who had matured a lot. He was the most distinguished lord in the North, and he came here as a witness. Different from the weddings in the South, most of the residents in the North are descendants of the First Men, and most of them have always maintained the Old Gods faith, which is a religious belief similar to animism.
