#209 - Chapter 19: Erya Escapes
Kevan: "But this is better than having our heads stuck on the city walls. If Stannis lands, King's Landing won't last an hour. It's still possible to move Joffrey and the courtiers west immediately."
Tywin: "No, they are Lannisters, and they must fight to the death. Stannis is still two days away from King's Landing by sea, but the little wolf pup is at our doorstep. He's too close to Casterly Rock."
Kevan: "I heard he sent a team to retake Winterfell. Those Iron Island pirates have done us a great favor this time. He shouldn't risk attacking Casterly Rock before he gathers more troops."
Tywin: "It's hardest to grasp what these kids are thinking at this age. They are ignorant and fearless, and they may take risks at any time! No, I can't pin my hopes on the enemy. We'll set off before nightfall, so we can break through before Robb reacts!" He slammed his fist on the table, and all the officers stood up.
Tywin pointed to the Mountain: "Clegane, you stay and guard Harrenhal, find the Brotherhood Without Banners and destroy them!"
Turning his head, he saw Arya again: "This girl has been serving quite well, let her stay with you!"
Tywin instructed Arya: "Remember not to let him get drunk at night! This guy is not easy to get along with when he's sober, but he's good at getting the job done."
Arya's mind was in a mess, and she walked out of the room in a daze. From what she heard at the meeting, Tywin planned to set off overnight and attack Robb's army by surprise. No, she must stop him. That's right, Jaqen! She began to look for Jaqen's figure in the castle.
"Hey, look, it's Yoren's little bitch. This guy used to be a boy, but now he's a girl." It was Polliver who spoke. The big bald-headed Chiswyck was sitting next to him. They were locked in the same prison cart as Jaqen.
Arya asked rudely, "Where's Jaqen? Why can't I find him in the castle?"
Polliver said with a grim expression, "Little bitch, I've wanted to deal with you for a long time. You dare to show up in front of me! Hehehe..."
Arya was no longer the little girl she used to be, and she didn't put up with these two thugs. She kicked over the wooden board that they were using as a dining table. The food and drinks on it spilled all over the ground, splashing onto several soldiers. Before they could react, she shouted, "Bastards! It seems you don't know who I am. I'm Lord Tywin's close attendant, just a small soldier. How dare you talk to me like that? Have you seen the corpses hanging over there? I'll send you to join them if you don't answer my questions."
Chiswyck stood up angrily, baring his fangs. Polliver stopped him. He began to regret provoking this little girl. Damn it! She was too ruthless. She was directly trying to pin the label of accomplice to an assassin on him. This was terrible. He could see that the other companions around him were looking at them with unkind eyes. Damn it, a good man doesn't fight when the odds are against him. Polliver smiled brightly: "I was just kidding. You know we love to joke. Oh, you're looking for Jaqen, right? He was sent out on patrol early this morning. As for when he will come back, I don't know. We haven't seen each other for a while. I don't know what gift to give you. Here are three silver coins, you can take them and buy something yourself."
Arya was not polite and snatched the silver coins directly. She snorted disdainfully, raising her head like a proud little peacock. She thought: The teacher is right. You can't be too polite to deal with this kind of thug.
Polliver appeased Chiswyck, but he also felt bad! They only received ten silver coins each month, and three were gone in the blink of an eye. He secretly vowed that he would not provoke little girls in the future.
The horn sounded in the castle, which was a signal to gather the army. Several soldiers who were watching the excitement said: "Okay, don't feel bad. We're going to kill wolves, there will be plenty of opportunities to make money."
Arya was helpless, and just sat on the carriage, watching teams of Lannister soldiers set off. It wasn't until Tywin left the city gate under the guard of a group of cavalry that Arya sighed helplessly.
After nightfall, Jaqen returned on horseback. He saw Arya squatting listlessly at the door at a glance. Jaqen walked up to her and asked, "What is the girl thinking about?"
Arya: "Nothing, I suddenly realized I'm very stupid."
Jaqen: "Then have you thought about the last name?"
Arya: "Well, how about Tywin Lannister? You could have seen him if you had come back two hours earlier."
Jaqen: "This is a bit difficult, I need time."
Arya thought for a while and said, "Let's play a game!"
The result was self-evident, and Jaqen agreed to Arya's request with some suspicion about life. He agreed to help Arya and three others escape from Harrenhal at midnight.
At midnight, Arya led two companions and sneaked to the vicinity of the east gate. They hid beside the Wailing Tower, where they could clearly see the situation at the gate.
Hot Pie hugged a large package and looked at the guards at the door. He asked, "Arya, is your contact reliable? Why hasn't there been any movement yet?"
Arya: "He promised me, he can definitely do it. What did you all bring?"
Hot Pie: "Hehe, I brought four big breads and two big strings of sausages, enough for us to eat for three days."
Gendry: "I stole three swords from the blacksmith shop, which may be used for self-defense on the road. There is also a bow, which can also be used for hunting."
Arya stretched out her hand: "Give me a sword, I'll go and see." Arya carried the sword on her back and slowly walked towards the gate. Suddenly her nose twitched, it was the smell of blood. Good eyesight allowed her to discover that the four guards at the door were dead, and their bodies were nailed to the spot with spears.
She ran back to greet her companions and hurried away, and admired Jaqen's assassination skills.
At the same time, Qarth, due to the time difference, it was already morning here.
Daenerys' eyelashes trembled slightly, and a pair of beautiful purple eyes opened. She was lying in Liu Yuan's arms, smelling the good smell on his body. Remembering the madness last night, she couldn't help but blush. If Drogo was the wild wind, then Galon was the surging sea, bringing her a new feeling.
Daenerys got up quietly, revealing her graceful body. She picked up her clothes on the ground, her face collapsed, she was too excited last night and tore her skirt. Then she found a brand new set of clothes on the tray. When she unfolded it, it was a very beautiful lake blue dress with a whole set of jewelry on it.
Her eyes narrowed, she didn't expect this man to be so careful.
