Game of Thrones: Holy Flame King
Chapter 12 Secret
Dear Miss Margery:
Sorry to bother you again, but, I have to confess, I'm out of money again...
This time it's really not that I wasted money indiscriminately, but that it happened for a reason.
Presumably you also know that I am not the son my father loves, so he only left me a long sword and a war horse, and I have nothing else.
Now that the Crimson Mountains are in sight, I think it is necessary to improve my equipment for the upcoming battle. What's more, as a knight, how can he not even have a pair of armor? If it gets out, others will think that the Tyrell family treated the vassals harshly.
Fortunately, we ran into the caravan of the Hightower family near Highland City, and they happened to have what I needed. So, I give generously. Of course, I always kept your previous advice in mind, and deliberately abandoned the expensive plate armor and chose the cheap chain armor.
In addition, I also bought a pair of leather armor for each of the recruits.
I know this action might make you angry. However, this group of brave and fearless Hewan people followed me thousands of miles to explore the Crimson Mountains. I really couldn't bear to let them go to the battlefield naked.
I believe that you, the beautiful and kind Miss Margery, must also think so.
...
"Hmph!" The beautiful and kind Miss Margaret crumpled the letter paper and gritted her teeth angrily.
But the next moment, she suddenly laughed again, as if thinking of something fun.
"What's the matter?" Mrs. Olenna looked at the angry and smiling granddaughter and asked curiously.
"It's not that Samwell, he actually wrote to ask me for money again!"
"Give it to him."
Facing Mrs. Olenna's light answer, Margaret's eyes widened: "But grandma, this guy has written to ask for money for the second time! I think he is deliberately squandering it. If I give it to him again this time, I'm afraid It didn't take long for him to run out again..."
"Are we short of money?" Madame Olenna interrupted with a smile.
Margaery shook her head, but she was still resentful: "Although we are not short of money, we can't let him ask for it like this. No, he is blackmailing!"
"Then don't give it up, let Todd bring back all our soldiers."
"Ah?" Margaery, who was still furious just now, hesitated when she heard the words, "But... but grandma, in this case, can Samwell develop smoothly... Besides, don't you plan to use him to deal with many Well? Did you just give up like this? "
Madam Olenna smiled and said:
"Understood, this is why he dared to blackmail you unscrupulously."
Margaret sighed, stepped forward and hugged Mrs. Olenna's arm, and said coquettishly:
"Grandma, teach me, what should I do in this situation?"
Mrs. Olenna patted her granddaughter's little hand affectionately, and instead of answering her question, she asked instead:
"What do you think of Samwell Caesar?"
"I don't think he is the same as the rumors, um—except that he is really fat. It is said that he is cowardly and cowardly, but I think he is quite courageous, and he dared to blackmail the Tyrell family."
"Not only did he have the guts to blackmail, but he also killed Todd Flower's attendant, Carter."
"What?" Margaery was taken aback.
"You heard me right." Mrs. Olenna explained, "I also just received a letter from Todd Flowers, saying that Samwell killed Carter on the grounds of 'threatening nobles with a sword'."
"He... how dare he kill Carter? Todd didn't stop him? Also, isn't he worried that the soldiers will hold grudges because of it?"
Madam Olenna took out a letter from her sleeve and handed it to Margaery:
"This is Todd's letter, read it for yourself."
Margaret took the letter, glanced at it, and said in surprise:
"This fat man is quite scheming, and he is so decisive... It seems that the rumors are really unbelievable."
Madam Olenna added with deep eyes:
"Actually, what surprised me the most was Samwell's military training ability."
"That's right. In just over a month, he was able to turn a group of dock laborers into well-trained soldiers. It's simply unbelievable."
"Randall Tarly is a good parent." Mrs. Olenna sighed, and then she looked suspicious, "Bold, decisive, scheming and means, and excellent military capabilities, Samwell is fully equipped How could Ran Dao be so dissatisfied with such an outstanding son? How could he actually want to deprive him of his right of inheritance?"
"Maybe I think Sam is too fat."
"Isn't your father also a big-bellied 'inflatable fish', but has this affected him from becoming the Duke of Highgarden?"
"This is different." Although she has long been used to her grandmother's poisonous tongue, Margaery was still a little embarrassed when she heard her mocking her father, "The Tully family language is 'I am the pioneer', so Earl Randyll All you want is an heir who can charge forward."
"Hehe, don't you think that Randyll Tarly is a brainless brat?"
"Of course not. Earl Landau is one of the best generals in the Reach. How can he have no brains. I just think that Earl Landau prefers to charge forward on the battlefield rather than engage in some conspiracy behind his back."
"You still think Landau is a brainless fool." Mrs. Olenna mercilessly pierced Margaret's whitewashing words, and then continued without waiting for her to explain, "Randao doesn't know how to conspire. Trick? Hehe. During the War of the Reavers, Robert Baratheon rebelled against the Targaryen family. He won three victories a day at Summerhall, unstoppable, but he met Randyll Tarly at Ashford. After a disastrous defeat, they fled north. Afterwards, the armies of the Riverbend marched into the Stormlands and surrounded Storm's End. Do you remember how long the siege lasted?"
"I remember it was more than a year."
"Yes. More than a year! In the end, it still failed to capture." Mrs. Olenna looked at her granddaughter's brown eyes, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, "Then do you still remember that the reason why the siege fell short in the end was because What?"
Margaery nodded: "It was Davos Seaworth who successfully drove his smuggling ship full of onions into the port of Storm's End, solved the crisis of food shortage in the city, and allowed Storm's End to persist until Ed The moment the Duke came to support. Because of this incident, Davos was also knighted by Stannis."
Madam Olenna had a sneering smile on her face, and asked again: "Have you ever thought about it, at that time the Arbor Island fleet had more than two hundred warships besieging the harbor of Storm's End, that 'Onion Knight' 'And how did he get his smuggling boat in? Can he fly?"
Margaery frowned, as if realizing something.
Madam Olenna looked deeply, and said: "I will tell you a secret. During the siege, Lando Tarly wrote me a letter, saying that the food in Storm's End has been exhausted."
Margaery was taken aback when she heard the words, and then became suspicious——
His grandmother did not go to the battlefield at that time, so why did Earl Landau write a letter to his grandmother far away in Highgarden to report this incident?
But thinking of "Onion Knight", she suddenly realized something.
Mrs. Olenna smiled gratifiedly when she saw her granddaughter's reaction, and said:
"That's right, I wrote a letter to Paxter after I received Landau's letter."
