The castle hall fell into a deathly silence.

The rebels and ironmen at the gate stopped.

But not all of them were suppressed, and the Countess of Ewen Oakhutt, ignoring a sharp scimitar against her throat, still cried out loudly:

"Quick! Kill him! Togan, leave me alone, kill ......"

With a click, Samwell removed Mrs. Ewen's jaw, leaving her words to roll in her throat and make a ho-ho sound.

"Stop! You're not an inflatable fish! Who are you? Sir Torgen Oakhart roared.

"Are you the Faceless One of the House of Black and White?" Count Fossoway asked.

In the minds of Westeros, it seems that only the Faceless have the ability to change their faces at will.

"It doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is that I have a hostage in my hands now." Samwell didn't blow himself up, otherwise the rebels would have found out and would be desperate to kill him.

The corner of Sir Togan's eyes twitched a few times: "And what do you want?" ”

"Talk about the conditions." Samwell said lightly, "The Riverbend army is coming soon, you have to hurry." ”

"We have hostages in our hands, and they dare not attack the city."

"Not necessarily." Samwell said quietly, "The army from the north is commanded by Randolph Tully, the army from the south is commanded by Baylor Hightower, and most of the troops under his command are Equestrians, can't you see Lady Olenna's determination?" They will not compromise with you. ”

Sir Togan was not confident.

Samwell continued: "Of course, Aiwen, a mad woman, who has a dead son, can ignore everything and be bent on revenge. What about you guys? Are you willing to follow her all the way to the dark? Do you really want to make trouble for the death of the Oakhut family? ”

Sir Togan gritted his teeth, and after a moment of silence, said:

"You don't even dare to show your identity, what qualifications do you have to negotiate with us?"

"Then get the real inflatable fish and let him talk to you."

"Okay." Ser Togan nodded in agreement.

Clearly, the Oakhut family is not all crazy.

Samwell thought for a moment and added, "By the way, bring Velas Tyrell with you, he is the heir of the High Court, and his words carry weight. ”

In fact, Samwell was worried that the inflatable fish would not be able to negotiate any good conditions.

Sir Torgan did not refuse, and motioned for his men to take men.

Soon, Duke Metz and Vilas were ushered into the hall.

Sir Torgan was cautious and placed them surrounded by knights of House Oakhet.

When Duke Mace saw his other self in the hall, his eyes widened suddenly, and he exclaimed in disbelief:

"You...... You...... Who are you? ”

"I'm here to save you." Samwell patted Mrs. Ewen on the back with the back of his knife and said, "Now, the Oakhut family agrees to peace talks. Mistress Mace, negotiate terms with them. ”

"And, peace talks?" The Duke of Metz was still a little confused.

Samwell was speechless at the father-in-law-to-be, and looked at Velas, who was in a wheelchair.

The eldest son of the Duke of Metz still had that breezy appearance, as if he was not imprisoned but entertained guests at home.

His performance is much better than that of an inflatable fish.

Vilas first bowed slightly to Samwell and said:

"Brave Unknown Knight, I would like to express my sincerest gratitude on behalf of the Tyrells for taking such a great risk to reach into enemy forces to rescue us!"

That's what a sensible person is. Samwell sighed in his heart, then nodded with a smile and reminded him:

"Sir Vilas, negotiate terms with the rebels. Oh yes, King Balon has already said that he is going to withdraw his army. ”

Velas looked at Baron and asked:

"Your Excellency Baron, are you really willing to withdraw your troops?"

"Yes......" King Baron finally relented, clutching his stomach with a painful expression and an extremely weak tone, but he still looked at Samwell with a fierce gaze.

"Yes. Then you order the withdrawal of troops. Vilas nodded, "We'll let you go when the Iron Mins are all out of the High Court." ”

"No way!" Victor Greyjoy shouted, "You let my brother go first!" ”

Vilas shook his head firmly: "You guys withdraw first." I swear by the Tyrells that if you leave the High Court, we will release Lord Baron. ”

Samwell spoke at the right time, reminding:

"After dawn, the army of the river bend will arrive at the High Court, and if you delay any longer, then you will never think about leaving."

Victor wanted to say something, but King Balon waved his hand at his brother and said:

"You go first!"

Victor pointed his battle axe at Velas and said loudly:

"I swear by the name of the Drowning God! If the Tyrells don't keep their promises, I'll come back to the High Court!" No matter what the cost! ”

With that, he turned and left.

But at this moment, the Duke of Metz suddenly spoke:

"Let them leave what they loot!"

Victor stopped, turned his head and stared at the inflatable fish viciously, and said:

"No one can get the Iron Folk to hand over what they've already grabbed! Neither can I! ”

This may not be all intimidation, even if King Balon orders the Iron People to give up the stolen jewels, I am afraid that the Iron People will cause trouble.

Villas obviously didn't want to add more twists and turns, and hurriedly said:

"You can take away the looted property, but you can't take away the people of the High Court."

Victor hesitated for a moment, and finally did not refute:

"Okay."

Seeing that the Iron People had been dealt with, Vilas turned his head to look at the group of people in the Oakhut family and asked:

"What are the conditions for your Oakhut family?"

Sir Torgan said:

"You hand over the Fallwood City in the Stormlands to the Oakhut family, and you must also promise that you will not be held accountable for this rebellion."

Velas thought for a moment and nodded:

"Yes."

The corners of Samwell's mouth twitched, but he didn't speak.

Of course, he didn't want to give the castle of Stormlands to the Oakhut family, but now he coaxed the other party out of the High Court.

The Oakhut family dared to come to Stormlands, and Samwell would be in good time to clean them up in the future.

The Tyrells promised not to be held accountable for the rebellion, but Caesar did not.

Sir Torgan was pleased with this, but asked anyway:

"How can you guarantee that the Tyrells will not be held accountable for this rebellion?"

"The credibility of the Tyrells of the High Court."

"No way!" Another Oakhut knight spoke up, "We need stronger guarantees. ”

Vilas patiently asked, "For example?" ”

Sir Togan said, "I have a daughter, so you might as well marry." ”

Velas laughed, "Sir Torgan, if I remember correctly, your daughter seems to be only six or seven years old, right?" ”

"She's six years old." "But she'll grow up." ”

"Okay." "Since you don't dislike me, a cripple, then I'll be engaged to your daughter, and we'll marry when she gets her first period." ”

Sir Togan shook his head and said, "It's not enough to be engaged. ”

Villas was a little helpless: "You can't let me marry a six-year-old, can you?" ”

"I mean, during the engagement, you have to go to Ancient Oak." Sir Togan said, "Nurture a bond with my daughter." ”

"No way!" The Duke of Metz immediately refused.

No matter how stupid he is, he knows that this is cultivating feelings, and he clearly wants his son to be a hostage.

Samwell smirked, "Vilas is so old, how long are you going to keep him waiting?" It's better to marry your daughter at a younger age. I remember Mistress Mays had a seven-year-old nephew......"

"It has to be Vilas!" Sir Torgan emphasized, "Only when the heirs of the High Court come to the House of Oakhut can we trust the promise of the Tyrells." ”

Duke Mace had a bitter face, his mouth moved, but he didn't dare to say anything after all.

Then listen to Velas:

"Father, Gao Ting has raised me for twenty-six years, and it's time for me to repay."

The Duke of Mace, of course, heard what his son meant, and immediately burst into tears.

And Vilas had turned to the Oakhut family and said:

"I'm willing to go to Ancient Oak City."

Sir Togan was visibly relieved, but looked at the Duke of Metz and confirmed again:

"Mistress Mace, do you agree with this peace plan? As soon as you nod your head, the Oakhut family withdraws from the High Court. ”

At this time, the Count of Fossowe of the wine hall suddenly spoke:

"Wait a minute, our Fosoway family also has conditions."

Villas said in a sullen voice, "My brother Garland has already married your daughter, what else do you want?" ”

Count Fosowe smiled: "In this case, then the Fosoway family also wants a castle in the Storm Land, just Hay Hall." ”

"The Hightowers have taken a fancy to the Hay Hall." Samwell said, "Why don't you change it to Rain House City?" ”

"Yes." Count Fossoway nodded in satisfaction.

Samwell sneered in his heart, Rain House City has not yet been captured, and Earl Fosoway obviously doesn't know the news, since the other party wants it, then lead the army to fight by himself.

Just don't fall into an ambush halfway.

When Sir Togan saw that the Fersauwe had also settled, he spoke again to urge the Duke of Metz.

After all, these agreements can only take effect if the master of the High Court nods.

The Duke of Metz wept for a long time, but finally nodded in agreement.

Samwell watched quietly from the sidelines and didn't speak again.

Although these conditions are excessive, one hostage is better than a bunch of hostages.

Solve the crisis in front of you first, and then find a way to get Velas back.

There is also Fallen Wood City, which he will also have to take back sooner or later.

The Tyrells promised not to hold the rebellion accountable, but he didn't.

Seeing Duke Mace nod, Sir Torgen withdrew his sword.

The tense atmosphere in the hall suddenly disappeared, and almost everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Perhaps with the exception of Countess Ewen Oakhert, this madwoman was bent on avenging her sons.

Of course, no one cares what she thinks now.

"Excellent! Congratulations to both sides for the peaceful resolution of this crisis. Samwell clapped with a smile, but then he changed his tune, "Next, it's time for me to make a qualification." ”

Everyone was stunned.
