The glimmer of the morning sun shines on the garden of golden roses, and the dew drops on the petals shimmer like pure crystals, decorating this elegant garden like a fairyland.

A few beautiful larks weave through the treetops, flying over vibrant flowers, singing beautiful melodies.

However, this beautiful early morning scene was broken by a rude voice:

"Damn Samwell! He can't stop and get me in trouble! ”

Governor of Riverbend, Warden of the South, Duke of High Court, Mace Tyrell had a big belly, thick arms waving a letterhead, and his fat face was full of anger.

"I didn't say hello to hundreds of laborers from my dock before, I didn't bother with him, last time he asked for the homeless people of the High Court, for the sake of my baby daughter, I didn't embarrass him, this time, he actually provoked Starfall City! Do you want me to send troops to support? He treats me like a ......"

"Father, drink tea." Margaery Tyrell brought the silver teacup to the Duke of Mace, just enough to keep the rest of his complaints in his stomach.

Duke Metz took the teacup, and suddenly lost his temper in the face of his daughter's bright smiling face, so she had to be pulled by her to sit down on a chair.

After taking a sip of tea, the Duke of Metz said to Lady Olenna in front of him:

"Mother, have you read the letter? Do you think this Samwell is a troublemaker? ”

Lady Olena clasped her hands in her sleeves, her eyes kept staring at the lark outside the pavilion, and said lightly:

"Samwell is indeed a kid who can toss. However, this time I really don't blame him. ”

"Don't blame him?"

The old lady nodded and said, "I just received a message from Black Harbor City a few days ago that Adric Dane and Aliria Dane were tragically killed in a hunting accident. ”

Duke Mace was stunned for a moment, and wondered: "Mother, what does this you said have to do with that kid in Eagle's Beak?" ”

Margaery spoke at the right time, "These are the last two heirs of the main branch of the Dane family, right?" No wonder Starfall goes crazy. ”

Duke Mace reacted and exclaimed, "It can't be Samwell's kid who did it, right?" ”

Olenna rolled her eyes, not wanting to deal with her stupid son anymore.

Margaery poured her father a cup of tea and said softly, "Someone should have deliberately provoked it, right?" ”

Lady Olenna smiled at her granddaughter, as if she had finally found some comfort, and then turned to her son, and said angrily:

"Lord Inflatable Fish, your vassals have sent a letter asking for help, do you think you should send troops to support?"

Duke Mace didn't care about the ridicule in his mother's tone, anyway, this was not the first time, but for the Samwell who made a fool of himself, he was even more tired in his heart, so he said:

"His castle hasn't been built yet, so according to the law of the lord, Eagle's Beak Island is not yet an official river bay territory, what reason do I have to start a war? And what vassal would be willing to fight the Dornish for such a disputed land? ”

Lady Olenna opened her mouth and spat out a name: "Randolph Tully." ”

"Randolph?" Duke Mace frowned, "Although Samwell is his son, he is also the son who was stripped of his inheritance and kicked out of the house. Do you think he will send troops for Hawkspew? ”

"I don't know." Lady Olenna smiled slightly and said leisurely, "But I want to know." ”

"Huh?" Duke Metz was stunned again.

Margaery spoke again at the right time: "Father, grandmother has never believed that Earl Landau really gave up on Samwell as a son, so I want to take this opportunity to test it. ”

"Oh." Duke Mace nodded, "Okay, then I'll write to Lan Dao about it." However, I will not give him any orders, and it is up to him to decide whether to send troops or not. ”

After saying that, the Duke of Metz stepped forward and kissed the forehead of his mother and daughter, and then hurried away.

Although he loved them very much, every time he was alone with them, Duke Metz felt uncomfortable, especially his mother, Lady Olenna, in front of whom Duke Mace felt like a fool.

Margaery sent her father out of the garden, then returned to the gazebo, poured a cup of flower tea for Madame Olena, and asked:

"Grandmother, what if Count Landau really doesn't send troops?"

Lady Olenna took a sip of flower tea and said lightly, "Then Samwell will have to rely on himself." ”

After speaking, she put down the teacup, reached out and fiddled with the sapphire necklace on her granddaughter's chest in front of her, and said with a smile:

"What? You can't bear to be the first knight you canonized? ”

"It's a little. Sam is actually a very capable pioneer knight. Margaery pressed her smooth face against the back of her grandmother's wrinkled hand, rubbing it gently, "And we've invested so much in all this time." Todd Buddha Flower Knight, a hundred elite soldiers, and thousands of golden dragons...... Now that Hawksbill Island is about to become a real river bay territory, and can also produce brandy and silver, it is a pity to give it up like this. ”

Madame Olena gently caressed her granddaughter's cheek, but her words were extremely cold:

"No matter how beautiful a rose in your garden is, and no matter how much time and effort you have put into caring for it, when it's time to get rid of it, you have to get rid of it, otherwise the insect disease will spread and destroy your whole garden."

Margaery was a little unwilling: "Then you have to try to cure it first." ”

"It's not a simple insect disease." Lady Olenna shook her head and sighed, "You also know that the two heirs of the Dane family are dead. And the timing of our death was so coincidental, it was obvious that someone saw our plan on Eagle's Beak Island and wanted to use it to provoke war.

Although we were originally building a territory on Eagle's Beak Island to deal with Dorne, the timing of the war must not be grasped by others. Otherwise, we will only be passive everywhere, and even the flowers planted elsewhere will be affected.

Hawksbill Island is already a rotten sore exposed to the eyes of vultures, so we took this opportunity to ask the Dorns to help us remove it. Brandy can be brewed elsewhere, silver, how can we lack this money. ”

Hearing her grandmother say this, Margaery had no choice but to give up.

She thought for a moment and asked, "Grandmother, do you see who is secretly making trouble this time?" ”

"There are several suspicious targets. However, the man was very careful, and I can't say for sure. Lady Olenna pressed her granddaughter's frowning brow, as if trying to soothe it, and smiled and comforted, "Don't worry too much. That bastard in Starfall City is just for the sake of gaining attention and honor, and he won't offend us easily, so Samwell won't have to worry about his life even if he loses.

When the time comes, we will pay for him back, appease him, and use it somewhere else.

Besides, it's time for that kid to suffer a loss. Otherwise, I feel like he's about to float to the sky.

You don't know, Paxter wanted him to marry Daismera, but the kid refused. ”

Margaery's eyes widened: "He can't even look down on the eldest daughter of Qingting Island?" So who else does he want to marry? ”

"Who knows." Lady Olena snorted.

"Grandmother, what if Earl Landau really sent troops to support Eagle's Beak Island and help Sam defend it?"

That means that Randolph Tully didn't really give up on this son, and he probably had other plans to kick him out of the house. Until we see his true purpose, let's not meddle rashly. The mess on Hawksbill Island will be left to the Tully family, and Samwell will not be given any more support. ”

Margaery nodded, understanding what her grandmother meant, but then it occurred to her that there was one last possible development in the matter—that Samwell had taken Eagle's Beak Island on his own without anyone's help.

But this result is too unbelievable, the army of the Dane family is not comparable to the savages, and Samwell, no matter how powerful, cannot be his opponent.

Margaery immediately put this ridiculous idea behind her and secretly prayed to the Seven Gods that they would protect her knights from the war.
