Yangya Castle is the domain of the Kuy family.

They are said to be descendants of the Andal people, who were given the land by a family of gardeners more than 4,000 years ago.

The Cooy family's crest is six yellow roses on a blue background, which looks similar to the Tyrell family crest, but in fact, they are vassals of the old town of Hightower.

The current lord is Viscount Blanton Cooy.

It was a tall middle-aged man, well-dressed, with slightly gray black hair meticulously combed, sitting in the main seat of the living room with a serious expression.

"Sir Caesar, you are not what I imagined."

Samwell took a sip of wine and said with a smile:

"Lord Viscount, what do you imagine me to look like?"

Viscount Blanton also smiled, no longer putting on that serious look, and said:

"I heard you're fat."

Samwell shrugged with a wry smile:

"Difficult development, is the best weight loss medicine."

It's been more than half a year since the crossing, and Samwell's weight loss has indeed been fruitful.

The original bloated body has completely disappeared, and now he is well-proportioned, tall and strong, and the whole person exudes a heroic and high-spirited atmosphere. Beneath the slender sword eyebrows are a pair of deep eyes, as calm as the sea before a storm.

Viscount Blanton has read countless people, but for the first time, he found that he couldn't see through a young knight who was less than twenty years old.

In particular, this young knight was still a well-known waste in the aristocratic circles of the Riverbend, and many people were speculating at the beginning about how long it would take for this person to escape from the Crimson Mountains and become a wandering knight.

However, Viscount Blanton looked at Samwell in front of him, but felt that the other party was like a steel sword hidden in a sheath, deep and restrained, but hidden edge.

This kind of calm, cold, and confident temperament has only been seen by Viscount Blanton in a few veterans who have been on the battlefield.

Among them was Count Randolph Tully.

Viscount Blanton had participated in the War of the Reelers, and he could not forget the invincible and majestic appearance of the Earl of Landau, even the invincible Robert Baratheon was overshadowed in front of him.

And now, Viscount Blanton sees his father's shadow in Samwell.

With such a son, Randolph Tully was willing to kick out of the house?

Viscount Blanton took a sip of his wine glass, took the opportunity to retract his thoughts, and said:

"How's the development going? Those wildlings in the Crimson Mountains are not easy to deal with, are they? ”

"Well, those wild people are a real headache." Samwell looked distressed, "There are so many captives, I'm worried about how to settle them." ”

"Ahem, ahem......" Viscount Blanton actually choked when he heard Samwell's Versailles-style remarks.

When he had recovered his breath, he asked:

"How many captives have you taken?"

"More than ten thousand."

"How much?" Viscount Blanton thought he had misheard.

"There should be more than 12,000 people. Last month I fought two battles with the Wildlings, and thanks to the favor of the Seven Gods, I won both of them. Therefore, the fourteen tribes near Eagle's Beak Island have all submitted to me, and all the tribesmen have become my subjects. ”

Viscount Blanton frowned, thinking that the other party was bragging, and his evaluation of him suddenly decreased a lot in his heart, but he still asked one more question:

"How many soldiers did you bring with you this expedition?"

"The Tyrells sent a hundred elite soldiers, and then I myself recruited more than a hundred new soldiers. Oh yes, and this Todd Buddha Flower Knight is also a big contributor to this development. ”

Todd, who was standing behind Samwell, leaned over slightly and saluted Viscount Blanton.

Originally, when Viscount Blanton heard that Samwell had brought such a few people, and half of them were recruits, he was even more convinced that the other party was bragging.

But when he saw Todd Buddha Flower, he was suddenly unsure.

Because he had heard of Todd Buddha and knew that this man was the illegitimate son of Qingting Island and a knight loyal to the Tyrell family.

Such a person should not help Samwell lie.

But such a record still made Viscount Blanton a little unbelievable.

He thought that he had overestimated this pioneer knight enough, but he didn't expect that the other party was even more powerful than he imagined.

Is there another Randolph Tully in Riverbend?

Samwell seemed to see the suspicion in Viscount Blanton's eyes, and glanced at Cheman behind him.

Cheman understood, and immediately picked up the wooden box at his feet and sent it to the long table in front of Viscount Blanton.

"What is this?"

"This is a small gift from me."

Viscount Blanton opened the wooden box and stared.

Because there is a human head in the box!

Samwell explained, "This is the head of the Huya Tribe Patriarch. ”

Yangwu City was just south of the Crimson Mountains, and Viscount Blanton certainly knew the most powerful tribe in the nearby mountains.

Looking at the tusk necklace placed next to the head, Viscount Blanton believed Samwell a little more in his previous remarks.

"It seems that your expedition has indeed taught the wild people of this mountain a bad enough lesson! I loved this gift. Viscount Blanton said with a smile, after all, the other party had cleared these wild people, and his territory could avoid being attacked.

Seeing that the other party didn't understand what he really meant, Samwell added with a smile:

"Lord Viscount, have you forgotten? The patriarch of the Huya tribe had killed a Hightower years ago. ”

"Oh?" Viscount Blanton was stunned for a moment, and then seemed to recall this old incident, and the smile on his face suddenly became more eager, "I remember!" That's right, I also led two hundred family soldiers to follow Earl Layton to the Crimson Mountains in an attempt to capture this wild man stained with the blood of Hightower. It's a pity that these guys are like mice, hiding in XZ, and they can't find a trace at all. Unexpectedly, I was actually killed by you! ”

Samwell smiled slightly and said:

"I'm going to Qingting Island, so I want to ask you to help send this head to the old town and hand it over to the Hightower family."

Although Samwell himself would soon have to make a trip to Old Town, he chose to have Viscount Blanton pass it on his behalf.

Because Viscount Blanton was a vassal of the Hightower family, the lord of Oldtown, and was also involved in this matter back then, it was equivalent to a gift from him to hand it over, but he received two favors.

Both the Hightowers and the Cooy are grateful to him.

"Of course no problem!" Viscount Blanton's gaze towards Samwell was indeed more kind.

What a sensible young man!

Brave, warlike, and so sensible, Viscount Blanton really doesn't understand, why do the nobles of Riverbend think Samwell is a waste?

Are you all blind?

The more Viscount Blanton looked at Samwell, the more pleasing he became, and suddenly remembered that he had an unmarried daughter, and a thought popped up in his heart.

"Sir Caesar, you must be tired after a long journey, so you might as well rest first. I've had dinner ready for dinner later. ”

Samwell looked at the smiling Viscount Blanton, and secretly said that his gift was indeed not wrong, and the next "pull investment" should be nine out of ten, so he got up happily and said with a smile:

"It's an honor!"
