Chapter 859
Spice Hotel third floor, a spacious yet minimal living room.
Under the candlestick chandelier, there is a square wooden table, with Tyrion and Onion Knight sitting opposite each other, Jon and nine-year-old Young Earl Moterys on each side.
It looks like they are playing mahjong, but the atmosphere is low and depressed, and there is no fun in the mahjong field at all.
"I really don't want to mess with you anymore, just a simple question, half a month tossing, you're not annoying, I'm tired too." Tyrion said tiredly.
"We all understand the fact that in order to maintain the stability of Reach, it is best not to let nobles other than 'hands' Garth blood descendant meddle in Highgarden."
paused, Onion Knight's expression is sincere He said: "I'm not going around the corner anymore, Stannis Your Majesty plans to give Highgarden to House Florent.
The next Duke of Reach is scheduled to be Lord Axell Florent.
While Robert was alive, Ser Axell worked hard and served as the Dragonstone Acting City Lord for Stannis Your Majesty for ten years.
Afterwards, with Your Majesty, he fought and died. For King Your Majesty, he personally brought oneself's elder brother Earl Alester is in jail.
Your Majesty deserves his reward."
"As far as I know, Axell has neither fought nor done as much as you have done. Harrenhal Duke is more than enough to repay him!" Tyrion indifferently said.
Jon also said: "Axell is married to Gerrick Kingsblood's daughter...I'm not saying the Wildlings don't deserve the position of Duke Lady of Reach, just that you said it, princes of the Reach Greenhand line. Very xenophobic."
One hundred thousand Wildlings is a powerful force, and Dany himself has no intention of playing the hegemony game in Westeros, nor does he think about incorporating the Wildlings army.
But on the Wall Jon and Stannis have been trying to take the Wildlings.
Jon's charisma (protagonist halo?) convinced Tormund and other Wildlings leaders.
Stannis has always had a negative charisma, even southerners don't like him much, even more how beyond the wall Wildlings?
So, marrying the Wildlings chief became an option for him.
Like Robb, King had a wife, so he let King's relatives marry.
Axell Florent was interested in Valiant and formidable looking Val, who is Mance Rayder's sister-in-law. But Val doesn't like him, Mance doesn't like Second Stag.
Axell took the next step, choosing a descendant of the previous generation Wildlings King "Redbeard".
But the Wildlings King has no inheritance, and the descendants of the Wildlings King, like the sons of the late Khal, are of little value.
It's just that the southern nobles wanted to rule the Wildlings, so they took it for granted to find an obedient Royal Family from the Wildlings.
It turns out that few Wildlings recognize the so-called "king blood" at all, they are not even the current Wildlings King Mance Rayder, even more how the descendants of the previous Wildlings King?
Now, the worthless marriage has become a drag on Axell.
As Jon said, Sansa isn't a descendant of Greenhand, but she and Aegon come from an extraordinary background, at least better than the combination of Axell, the second son, and the female Wildlings.
"Ser Axell intends to dissolve the marriage, send his current wife to the Silent Sisters, then marry Margaery Tyrell, and if Margaery dies, replace it with Earl Randyll Tarly's youngest daughter." Onion Knight was a little embarrassed. said.
There are many organizations under the Church of The Seven, the most common being Septon, Septa, as Church Forces Warrior's Sons and Poor Fellows, monks of monastery, Silent Sisters of corpses.
Well, the monks of the monastery are real monks, shaved head, made silent vows (cultivation closed mantra), and their daily activities mainly include labor, meditation, prayer and silence.
Hound was saved by the monk of the monastery, but he was not shaved.
Silent Sisters are a bit like nuns, who make vows of abstinence and silence. The other priests serve all The Seven (actually The Seven is one, only one), while the Silent Sisters serve only the Stranger.
Therefore, they are also called "Stranger's Wife".
Axell sent his wife to the Silent Sisters, forcing her to be a nun, which was cruel.
Tyrion sneered: "Axell believes in Red God, what is it to send his wife to the Church of The Seven?
And Randyll Tarly is still my old sister's Hand of the King now, King's Landing doesn't come down, so he's thinking about his daughter."
"Seven Hells!" Suddenly, Jon slapped his thigh and exclaimed, "I remember, Sam's mother is also Florent, Ser Axell's own niece.
Sam's younger sister is Ser Axell's grandniece, how can this be combined?"
"It's not siblings and father and daughter, The Seven are both This kind of cousin marriage is not prohibited." Onion Knight defended in embarrassment.
“I think siblings are more acceptable too,” Tyrion muttered.
"You say that because you're a Targaryen," Davos scoffed.
“I would say that even for my old sister and Old Brother.” Tyrion laughed hehe.
Davos gave him a deep look and blunt said, "Reach is so important, especially with Long Night coming.
Stannis Your Majesty will only give it to the most loyal Our subordinates.
Let's put it this way, Lady Sansa only provided us with 100,000 tons of grain, but Highgarden has more than 300,000 tons of grain in reserve."
"Then Where's Vale?" Tyrion asked.
"Ai, Your Majesty's base now is the Vale princes, who oppose Lady Sansa's entry into Eyrie."
"So there's nothing to talk about?" Tyrion spread his hands.
"Your Majesty means that you can let Sansa inherit the Riverrun from the Tully family." Onion Knight said.
Tyrion shook his head, "I actually agree with this suggestion, but Sansa will definitely not agree. Her uncle is still alive, and her grandfather is also helping Ser Barristan set up The Neck line of defense in The Twins."
"Then divide the Riverlands into two, Riverrun will belong to Tully as usual, and Lady Sansa will inherit the position of Harrenhal Duke of Aegon."
"This is not good, sooner or later the two will conflict, and don't forget Dragon Queen." Tyrion faintly said.
Onion Knight's heart tightened, "She wants to interfere in the Seven Kingdoms dispute?"
Tyrion said: "She still insists on the oath of 'the one who ends Long Night is king', but The Crownlands is the ancestral land that House Targaryen has been running for hundreds of years.
Just as the North belongs to Stark and the Westerlands belongs to Lannister.
Whoever sits on the Iron Throne in the end, the ancestral land of Targaryen will be Take it back.
Either move Iron Throne to Storm's End, or give her compensation equal to the Crownlands, for example, the Three Rivers catchment that connects to Crackclaw Point."
"This.. ...." Onion Knight looked confused.
This is what he and Stannis didn't expect before, but thinking about it, Dragon Queen's request isn't too much.
Dragon Queen rescued Wall when the Wildlings went south. After Long Night came, he came to fight Others for the first time, and formed the two main forces to fight against Others with King Stannis (Davos oneself's idea), fully fulfilling the responsibility of "Crownlands Duke".
Responsibility and power are equal, at least the Dragon Queen has the power to demand equal power and benefit.
After a while, Davos helplessly said: "I have to go back and discuss with Stannis Your Majesty."
"Negotiate?" Little Earl of Velaryon, who was dozing off, was not happy anymore." Duke of Rainwood (Davos' title), every time you have a problem, you go back and talk to someone, it's almost half a month to go back and forth. Now let's talk, when is the next negotiation?"
"This time is different. It involves the ownership of Dragon Queen and Crownlands." Davos said softly.
Moterys sighed then said, "Lord Earl, I am young and not as knowledgeable as you, but I also know the history and traditions of Westeros.
In Aegon the Before the arrival of the Conqueror, King's Landing was a forested hill, and the Crownlands were mostly deserted and undeveloped.
It was Targaryen that made Barbarian Desolate Land the bustling city and village it is today.
According to tradition and law, the Crownlands should belong to Targaryen, and there is no need to discuss it.
Otherwise, why would the Greenhands want to rule the Reach? Why should Stark be King in the North? Why should the Westerlands be To the Lannister?
And Storm's End, Eyrie, and Sunspear, and many Earldom lands that inherit millennia.
If you break this tradition, the Seven Kingdoms will be in total chaos."
Davos was speechless.
Tyrion winked at Little Earl, strangely saying with a smile: "I thought you, a notary, would only doze off!"
Little Earl blushed and lowered his head. The head whispered: "I woke up hungry."
"Then let's eat, I'll be here today." Davos said quickly.
"To be honest, Stannis is in the mood to play King's Landing and fight for power, so he might as well focus on Others King and get it done, Sansa Stark will not ask for anything.
If Others King was eventually killed by someone else, and now all the plans are a joke." Tyrion sighed.
Davos said meaningfully: "I'll be honest, if it wasn't for the Dragon Queen tossing an 'Unworthy King descendant', Stannis Your Majesty wouldn't care about Lady Sansa's little actions.
If you didn't show up as 'Aerys super illegitimate child', if you weren't united with Lady Sansa, it would be fine to consecrate Reach to Aegon's posthumous child."
Tyrion's eyes flashed and he said, "You Think the Dragon Queen has a conspiracy? What is she plotting, it can't be Iron Throne?"
Davos stood motionless at the table, looking down at the Imp opposite, indifferently said: "I also want to know, Why does she have to stimulate Stannis Your Majesty.
Knowing that you and Lady Sansa are unwilling to be plain, she still gives you a chance to make waves.
It's like she's encouraging you to participate in the Game of Thrones, encourage you to stand against Stannis Your Majesty."
"It's as if she encouraged her mad daddy to strengthen my poor mother and give birth to me." Tyrion said with a bitter smile.
Davos looked him in the eye and said, "In any case, Stannis Your Majesty will not allow two ill-conceived Targaryen to be on the sidelines while he goes all out against the Others.
To be honest, Stannis Your Majesty doesn't take matters in Seven Kingdoms, he only targets Targaryen other than Dragon Queen, which is you and Sansa.
Just make sure you give up on Iron Throne's quest - either, swear allegiance to Your Majesty, or leave Westeros - immediately to whole world at peace, to fight the Others as one nation."
"Allegiance, yes, we are now Aren't we just discussing the price of allegiance?
Meeting our demands, Sansa and I immediately shouted 'Long live the King, long live Stannis Your Majesty'." Tyrion groaned with his fist raised.
Davos turns away.
"Wait!" Tyrion chased after him, and as he went downstairs, whispered at a volume that only the two of them could hear: "I have a suggestion that will benefit both of you... ."
"You crazy, how dare you ask for Storm's End?!"
"No no, just mortgage..."
dwarf The voice got lower.
"You want to emulate your ancestors, Lann the Clever. Like Lann cheated Casterly Rock, pay a small price for big rewards in return to cheat Stannis Your Majesty's Storm's End?!" Davos coldly said .
"No, my ancestors were Valyria Dragonlords, and they would only go to war to snatch anything they wanted, and never lied." Tyrion said resolutely.
