BXBX NOVEL Chapter 306: Chief of High Court
Samwell was preparing to take a rest when he suddenly heard a knock on the door.
Opening the door, I saw an unexpected but reasonable person standing outside.
"Sir Geliot." Samwell turned a few thoughts in his heart, "It\'s so late, what do you want me to do?"
"Master Caesar, good evening." Geliott saluted respectfully, "Didn\'t disturb you?"
"No, come in."
Geliot entered the room, filled with hesitation and apprehension.
Looking at the young Storm King in front of him, he always felt unreal.
He clearly remembered that in King\'s Landing three years ago, this person was just a pioneering knight with extraordinary strength. Although he became the champion of that tournament, not many people took him seriously.
What can a pioneering knight in a backcountry be superior in force?
But now, this person has become a big figure who stirred up the situation of the Seven Kingdoms.
Even House Tyrell had to bow to this man...
"Please feel free." Samwell sat down on the chair.
Geliott also sat down as he said, and said a little cautiously:
"Lord Caesar, we fought against each other in King\'s Landing back then, do you remember?"
"Of course I remember. The first round was a tie, and it was only in the second round that I poked your breastplate."
"Yeah, now that I think about it, it was a great honor to fight against you." Geliott\'s expression was extremely sincere, "My father always said that you will definitely become one of the greatest knights in the history of the Seven Kingdoms." .”
Samwell laughed loudly: "Thank you Sir Galth for the compliment, I haven\'t seen him for a long time, is he okay now?"
"Father is still in good health, thank you for thinking about him."
"I have always admired Sir Galth. He has contributed a lot to the management of High Court in an orderly manner."
"You\'re flattering yourself. My father is just the master of the castle, how can he deserve such praise from you."
"What happened to the steward?" Samwell pointed out, "The Tyrell family was also the steward of the Gardener King, but now they have become the masters of Highgarden."
Geliott\'s heart trembled. Is this implying that his father Garth Tyrell can also become the master of Highgarden?
No no no no! Geliott quickly pushed the dangerous thought out of his mind.
But even so, he couldn\'t help but his heart beat faster and his mouth was dry.
"Master Caesar." Geliott kept his mission in mind, and said, "I came to you this time, but it was actually a helpless act..."
"Because I rejected your conditions?"
"Yes." Geliott hesitated, but decided to tell the truth, "In fact, it was Lady Olenna\'s idea to exchange Kevan Lannister for Loras Tyrell."
"What about Mace\'s idea? He is willing to hand over Mrs. Olenna?"
"Master Mace... is also struggling..."
Samwell smiled contemptuously:
"So Mace is actually willing to hand over his mother, but due to his reputation and the power of the old lady, he dare not say so?"
"Yes…"
"What about you guys?" Samwell has already guessed the purpose of this person, and it seems that the Tyrell family is already extremely dissatisfied with Mrs. Olenna, "What do the other members of the Tyrell family think? And you What is Father Sir Garth\'s opinion?"
As the uncle of the Duke of Mace, Garth Tyrell has been the steward of the High Court for more than forty years, serving two generations of dukes, and his reputation in the river bend is no less than that stupid inflatable fish.
That\'s why he used those words to test Geliott just now, wondering if the high court chief had a heart of disobedience.
Judging from Sir Geliott\'s reaction, the Chief High Court should not covet his nephew\'s title.
However, this person has a lot of opinions on Mrs. Olenna.
"A lot of Tyrells are actually very angry at Lady Olenna\'s actions, thinking that she is the culprit that caused Highgarden to fall into such a state." Geliott paused, and said, "My father also thinks that she should be held accountable for all of this.”
"But you can\'t convince Mace to do something to Olenna, can you?"
"Yes…"
Sam Well immediately understood the situation inside High Court.
"The inflatable fish, who is irresponsible, can\'t be counted on." Samwell said with a smile, "If you want to save the Tyrell family from disaster, you should make up your own mind."
"Actually, my father has persuaded many knights of the Tyrell family, and they are all willing to cooperate with you..."
Geliot hadn\'t finished speaking, but Samwell had already understood the other party\'s meaning.
These people of the Tyrell family don\'t want to bear the infamy, so they hope to let the horse party do it.
"Yes." Samwell said with a smile, thinking about the knife he just found, "However, I still have one condition..."
…
High Court.
Gariot Flowers rushed back all the way, and didn\'t care about rest. He went to see his father, Ser Garth Tyrell, with all his travels and dust.
The Chief of the High Court is now over sixty years old, with a gray head, a stout figure comparable to an inflatable fish, but a much better mental state, a pair of piercing eyes, and a neatly trimmed mustache. An overwhelming power.
"Father." Seeing that there was no one else around, Geliott said directly, "Caesar rejected the condition of exchanging Kevan Lannister for Loras Tyrell, but he agreed to your proposal. Moreover, the Ma Party army has begun to approach Gao Ting."
Gals was not surprised when he heard the words, and said:
"Okay, go and tell Duke Metz the news, I\'ll go see Lady Olenna."
Geliot was stunned for a moment, and asked, "Why are you going to see Mrs. Olenna..."
Garth snorted coldly: "Do you think we can hide from Mrs. Olenna what we have done? And no matter what, she has worked hard for the Tyrell family for most of her life, and there must be an explanation."
Geliot muttered twice, and finally mustered up the courage to say:
"Father, shall we quietly give Mace Tyrell to..."
Gals froze for a moment, and then immediately realized what his son implied.
He didn\'t speak, just looked at his son with cold eyes.
Geliott was frightened by his father\'s expression, shrank his head, and said cautiously:
"Father...Are you worried that the matter will be exposed? We can completely blame the horse party. And Caesar also expressed his appreciation for you..."
Gals asked coldly: "He said that once Mace died, he made me the Duke of Highgarden?"
"That\'s not true, he only said that we should take Mace away from Highgarden... However, he said that Tyrell was also the steward of the Gardener King..."
"Don\'t you understand? Not only did Caesar not want to kill Mace, he was also afraid that he would be killed by other horse party nobles, so he asked you to take him away from High Court. As for the latter sentence, it was purely a temptation." Garth snorted He said, "Your reason is blinded by greed, let me tell you, even if Mace dies, the Duke of Highgarden will not be ours."
"That\'s not necessarily true." Geliot retorted unconvinced, "Caesar will definitely not agree to let Mace\'s lineage continue to be in charge of High Court, this is our chance, with your prestige, the Tyrell family No one in the department can compete with you. As long as you please Caesar and get the support of the Ma Party..."
"Did you forget that Margaery is Caesar\'s queen?" Gals interrupted.
"So what. After this incident, can Caesar continue to trust Margaery?"
"How much do you know about their relationship?"
"I…"
"Do you know that when Madam Olenna was planning to assassinate Caesar, why didn\'t she just let Margaery do it? Wouldn\'t that be simpler and easier?"
"I…"
"You don\'t know anything, you only guess based on your own imagination, and you think you can see everyone clearly." The disappointment in Gals\' eyes became more and more intense, "You can\'t even see yourself clearly."
These words made Geliot Flowers angry:
"I can see clearly, I am your illegitimate child, I am not eligible to inherit anything, and you will not let me inherit anything, right, father!"
"Yes." Gals said coldly, "You really are not qualified."
Geliott trembled with anger.
"It\'s not just you, I don\'t want to inherit anything." Gals said lightly, "Otherwise, why don\'t I get married. It\'s also because I never wanted to inherit anything, so I can be in the position of the high court chief Sitting for so many years.
Geliott, if you\'re smart enough, you should understand what I mean. "
Geliot calmed down a bit, but he was still unwilling:
"You can at least be the High Court Steward, but what about me?"
"I have already given you the title of knight, a batch of war horses, a set of armor, and a sword." Gals said, "What you can achieve next is up to you. I am the second son, you are the illegitimate son, We are all destined to earn glory and respect with our own hands."
Geliot pursed his lips and stopped talking.
Gals patted his son on the shoulder and said:
"Forget those absurd thoughts, go to the Duke of Mace. Take him out of Highgarden and protect him. Winter is coming, and the roses will wither, but the falling petals will also make the soil more fertile.
Remember the tongue of our House Tyrell — everlasting.
I\'m old, and I can\'t wait for the day when the roses will bloom again, but you are still young, and you still have a chance. "
Geliott Buddha Flower took a deep breath, clasped his right hand heavily on his chest, bent over and saluted, and then strode away.
