Chapter 303: arrival
"Father."
Earl Randall looked at his son who jumped off the back of the dragon, his eyes stayed on the Valyrian steel ring crown on his head for a long time, and finally nodded.
Samwell handed Loras Tyrell to Ser Hale Hunt for custody, and then stepped forward to his father:
"Is my brother here yet?"
"It\'s here, but I let him go to Bright Water City."
Samwell immediately understood his father\'s plan, which was to let his younger brother take over the Florens family\'s territory.
The Florens family is the in-laws of the Tully family. At the beginning, his uncle, Sir Alleken Florens, gave Samwell a lot of support and was also the backbone of the Horse Party.
Unfortunately, since Samwell\'s aunt Selyse Florent married Stannis Baratheon, the Florent family gradually shifted their focus to that side.
This is also understandable. After all, Stannis is the first legal heir to the Iron Throne, and he married Selyse.
However, when Stannis attacked the city of King\'s Landing, Tyrion the "little devil" burned almost the entire fleet, completely declaring the game out.
The troops of the Florent family also went into the sea to feed the fish, and the investment was naturally in vain.
Family members also suffered heavy casualties, even Earl Alister died in that battle.
In this case, Earl Landau will definitely come up with the idea of brightening the city of water.
Whether it is Lady Melissa, the daughter of Earl Alister, or Dickon, who is engaged to the granddaughter of the Earl, are eligible to inherit Brightwater City.
Samwell is also happy to see the success.
Earl Randall didn\'t say much about this, but instead asked: "Has the army in the Stormlands been redeemed?"
"Redeemed."
"How did you deal with Doran Martell?" Earl Randall expressed his concern.
"Let the Dornish nobles stab him with a sword, and then send him back to Sunspear. Don\'t worry, he won\'t live long."
"Well, it\'s not bad to deal with it this way. Civil strife should break out in Dorne." Earl Randall nodded with satisfaction, and then reminded, "But even if civil strife breaks out in Dorne, don\'t rush to get involved in it for the time being. It\'s an extremely Where xenophobic places encounter foreign enemies, they may temporarily put aside their hatred and unite."
"I understand. After dealing with the river bend this time, my focus will be on managing the storm ground for a period of time in the future."
"It\'s good to understand. Only the power that can be controlled by yourself is your power, and the others can\'t be counted. Even the Hewan Horse Party is like this. Although families like Hightower, Rowan, and Peak are still willing to Support you, but once you can\'t continue to bring them benefits, they may not be willing to continue to follow you.
If you want them to truly surrender, you must have absolute strength so that they dare not betray. "
"I see."
Since the nobles of the Horse Party gathered in the fruit wine hall, the castle was already overcrowded.
Even the largest banquet hall in the castle cannot accommodate all horse party knights at once.
So Samwell had to entertain them separately.
Although he always sits at the head of the throne and wears the Valyrian steel ring crown on his head, no horse nobleman calls him "Your Majesty".
This is not a surprise, he has the support of the Ma Party, but he has not yet been able to get their allegiance.
"Sam!" Earl Matus yelled holding his glass, "The Tyrell family betrayed you like that, why are you still marrying their daughter? Why don\'t you be afraid of her secretly stabbing you when you sleep at night! If you want me to say, you might as well kill him." Her! If you can\'t do it, I can arrange someone to help you!"
"Master Matus, you are drunk." Samwell had an impeccable smile on his face, and he didn\'t seem to care about what Earl Matus Rowan said.
"You\'re so drunk!" Earl Rowan yelled when he came to Samwell, putting his hand on his shoulder with an extremely affectionate look, "When Margaery makes room, you can marry My daughter Jenny, she is eighteen years old, she is not bad, the key is her big butt, she is very fertile!"
"Master Rowan, how did I hear that your daughter has been defiled by a bard?" Earl Titus Peake laughed.
"Fart!" Earl Rowan stared, "Where did you hear the rumor! Absolutely nothing! My daughter has never even touched a man\'s hand!"
"Then Cersei is the most virtuous woman, and Kingslayer is the most loyal knight." Earl Peake laughed and said, "Don\'t deny it. I also know that kid went to the Great Wall of Immortality as a night watchman, tsk tsk, Matus, if I were you, I would have killed him long ago."
"Lies! Lies!" Count Matus Rowan threw the wine glass over.
It\'s a pity that it missed Earl Peake, but instead made a knight of the Green family next to him covered in alcohol.
Immediately caused even greater laughter and noise.
Earl Peake looked at Samwell with a smile, and said again:
"Lord Caesar, if you want to change a queen, you might as well consider my daughter Margaux. She is just fourteen years old and has already had menarche, but she has never been touched by a man. It is more suitable for you than the second-hand Jenny of the Rowan family!"
When Earl Peak humiliated his daughter, Matus Rowan roared and rushed over.
The two started fighting, crackling, overturning a table of food and drink.
"Okay." Samwell finally said, "Pull the two of them apart!"
After the knights stepped forward to separate the two earls, Samwell got up and said:
"Margaery and I made an oath under the witness of the Seven Gods. From then on, we are one body and one soul. Therefore, if you humiliate her, you are humiliating me!"
Samwell\'s tone was flat at first, but in the end, he was already stern.
With a little force on the right hand, the wine glass made of refined iron was completely deformed.
He put the wine glass still in front of Earl Rowan and Earl Peake, and said coldly:
"If someone humiliates Margaery again, next time I will give it back, not a wine glass, but white gloves!"
The banquet hall fell silent instantly.
Everyone in the Horse Party clearly felt the power of the young Storm King, and they were silent for a while.
But in the next second, Samwell put away his serious face and smiled:
"Of course, I believe that the two Earls made a slip of the tongue after drinking, and they didn\'t mean to humiliate my queen."
"Yes, yes, yes! I drank too much, I drank too much!" Earl Matus Rowan immediately wobbled.
"I drank too much, too much..." Earl Peake also borrowed the **** to get off the donkey.
Samwell changed another wine glass, raised it high, and said loudly:
"Everyone, let us raise our glasses to Queen Margaery!"
"To Queen Margaery!" Earl Matus Rowan was the first to agree, and then everyone also spoke.
After drinking the glass, the nobles were about to sit down when Earl Randall raised his glass again and said:
"To Caesar the Storm King!"
Samwell turned his head and exchanged a tacit look with his father.
The nobles of the Horse Party hesitated for a while, and finally raised their wine glasses one after another, and said in agreement:
"To Caesar the Storm King!"
Among the sounds of hundreds of cups colliding together, the ancient name of Storm King was finally uttered for the first time from the nobles of the River Bend.
Although it is not an oath of allegiance, it is also a good start.
