Chapter 66: Clay

It is almost dawn in King's Landing City, the famous Silk Street, and many prostitutes have finished their busy night work and begun to fall into sweet dreams.

On the street, there were some disheveled guests from the Silk Street Theater, hurriedly rushing home.

Carrying the ice wrapped in black cloth and wearing a black robe, Robb walked to the corner of Silk Street and knocked on the door of a small house with the Chinese character "林" engraved on the door.

Squeak!

The door was opened immediately. Robb looked around and entered directly.

This is a small cabin with various interesting decorations. It is not big or small. There are three middle-aged men with fierce faces inside at the moment, and a young man also wearing a black robe.

"Lord Robb!"

Seeing Robb entering the hut, the young man in black robe immediately bowed to him and saluted him.

Robb smiled and nodded, patted the black-robed boy on the shoulder, and said, "Don't be so polite! Clay, you guys came back before me. It seems like everything went smoothly?"

"Yes, Lord Robb! Our mission has been completed ahead of schedule. The three of them were so drunk that they didn't expend any effort at all."

The handsome young man in black robe, Clay Severn, replied in a gentle tone.

He is the Earl of Severn City and the eldest son of Meech Severn. When Robb went to Horwood City and reached a deal with Ramsay, he secretly went to Severn City to visit Earl Meech Severn.

At that time, Earl Meech, who was already loyal and friendly to the Stark family, gritted his teeth and proposed to let his son join the Wolf Guard for training in order to get closer to Robb.

However, Robb, who had his own arrangements, had no intention of taking Clay back to Winterfell after accepting his allegiance.

Instead, they arranged for him to go to King's Landing, which was regarded as a chess piece arranged by Robb in advance.

That night, he quietly headed to King's Landing under the protection of three confidant guards selected by Earl Meech.

This is why Robb invited the nobles of the north to a military parade at Winterfell.

In addition to the lord Earl whose children are serving in Winterfell, and Earl Wyman who personally delivered Myr's ointment, the reason why Earl Meech went to Winterfell in person early.

Robb gave him a simple mission at the beginning, which was to go to King's Landing, find a busy street to settle down, and then try his best to build a good relationship with the middle-level officers in gold robes.

Other than that, don’t get involved in anything else!

Robb emphasized this many times, so when Clay knew that Ed was arrested and the guards and servants accompanying him were slaughtered, he resisted the urge to go and investigate.

Robb, who disguised himself as a drunkard last night, after leaving the blacksmith shop, followed the signs agreed upon in advance and found Clay's settlement on Silk Street.

Then after Robb assigned their respective tasks, they divided into two groups.

"By the way, Clay, you wrote me back last time and said that you had found the retreat road. Are you sure you have made arrangements?"

After hearing his reply, Robb nodded and asked again.

His secret connection with Cray was unknown to anyone in Winterfell except Maester Luwin.

It's a good thing that this is the case, otherwise if the spies find out, Robb's plan in advance will be ruined.

"Based on the general information you provided, we have been out exploring every day for more than a month.

I guarantee there will be absolutely no problems on the retreat road."

When Clay heard his question, he nodded and answered with a very firm tone.

"Well, when daybreak comes, everyone in King's Landing will be in danger.

They most likely think that I am taking random revenge, but they don't know that our purpose is hidden in this revenge."

"Lord Robb, what if... these things are suppressed by those in the Red Keep, or someone finds out our purpose?"

Hearing that Clay was thinking about the worst possible outcome before doing anything, Robb nodded secretly,

I praised his caution in my heart and continued: "If I were suppressed, wouldn't it be tonight or tomorrow night?

When the time comes, these high-ranking dignitaries in King's Landing will be afraid of the coming of night.

As for finding out our true purpose...if Tywin or Tyrion were in King's Landing, I might be a little worried.

Others, if they are very careful, may be able to find out that Genos wrote something before his death.

However, this will not have much impact on our plans."

"Yes, Lord Robb will give it some thought!"

Clay, a handsome young man, nodded somewhat maturely and replied.

Ah! Oh!

Just as Robb was about to speak, he was interrupted by a burst of shouts coming from the next door in this poorly soundproofed cabin.

He took out a bag of golden dragons from his black robe and threw it on the table in the hut. He touched his nose and said, "Clay, although I asked you to find a busier street, if you live here, you will not sleep at night."

Got it!

This is my unexpected harvest from Genos, one hundred golden dragons. You are more familiar with King's Landing. It is up to you to allocate and use the money."

"Lord Robb, I chose this place for a reason.

Giwon is naturally the best place for information circulation, and middle- and high-level dignitaries and people in golden robes also like to come here.

The vice-captain I connected with also met here.

The money came just in time and can be used just right."

Clay smiled and explained the reason why he chose this cabin, and then he took the bag of golden dragons on the table into his hand without any ceremony.

"Okay, I had a busy night last night, let's have a good rest!

Hmm, can I really sleep here?"

Listening to the continuous sound, Robb shook his head helplessly.

"Lord Robb, I have been socializing here for more than two months and have met many beauties with different styles. If..."

"No, you have to be energetic now. Let's talk about it later..."

"As you command!"



"ah!"

As the morning sun shone in King's Landing, a scream kicked off the chaos in King's Landing.

Red Keep, Throne Room.

"Your Majesty, this morning, the Royal Marshal, Ilyn Payne, was found tragically dead at home, and the Commander of the Golden Robes, Janos Slynt, and his entire family were found dead at home.

Three captains of the city gate guards who were taking turns died in a tavern.

They... were probably killed by Robb Stark."

With a serious look on his face, Varys reported the intelligence he had just obtained this morning to Joffrey, who was sitting on the Iron Throne.

"Didn't you say that Robb Stark was hiding near the Mud Door? How could he go around killing people?

Have the Golden Robes caught him?"

When he heard that his officers were killed, Joffrey frowned and asked loudly.

"Your Majesty, when the golden robes arrived at the scene, they only saw these corpses. They didn't even see the shadow of Robb Stark."

After Janos died, Baelish temporarily took over the golden robes. When he heard Joffrey's question, he immediately answered.

When Joffrey heard this, he immediately asked: "Since no one has seen it, how can you be sure it is Robb Stark?"

Baelish turned to look at Varys and saw that he had his hands in his sleeves and looked as steady as a rock. He had no choice but to say: "Your Majesty, next to all the corpses, there are words 'Winter is Coming' written in blood."
