Take the ride to dominate the game

Chapter 143 Arianne Martell
North of Blackwater Bay.

The night has fallen, the wind is strong, and the undercurrent of the sea is causing huge waves from time to time. A long ship that has dropped anchor is moored here, and the surrounding wind and waves seem to have nothing to do with it.

The sailors and gun-wielding warriors on the ship didn't seem to care about the outside situation, just doing what they should do on their own.

In a certain room of the bilge, a childish boy looked at the beautiful woman who sneaked in without a sound, and asked softly, "Can I have something to eat? Water is also fine."

Since he was knocked unconscious by a sap, the boy opened his eyes and found that he was tied here, and then lived a life of starvation for three days.

Usually, the food deliverers were dark and thin sailors, but this was the first time that this beautiful woman appeared in the boy's eyes.

"Of course there is no problem, you are surprised."

When the beautiful woman came in, she had an unusually haughty expression, but after she spoke, she lowered her eyebrows and became pleasing to the eye.She walked up to the boy in a few steps, took out a dagger from her boot, and cut the rope that bound him.

The boy was a little dazed, not understanding what this beautiful woman was doing.

"Hush! I have come to rescue you, Your Majesty Tommen, please follow me."

It turned out that the boy was Tommen Baratheon I who had been searched for by thousands of people.

In the past month, the three major powers including Stannis, the Lionflower Alliance, and the River Kingdom have sent hundreds of riders to search the northern part of the king's land in order to find the missing Tommen.

More than a dozen castles, including Raven's Rest, Antlers, and even the ruined Duskendale City, changed hands repeatedly, just to dig three feet to find the missing king.

The boy's eyes were dazed from hunger, and his lips were chapped. Hearing that someone was coming to save him, he uttered the last bit of strength in his body and followed the beautiful woman out of this compartment, which was obviously a cargo hold.

The two quietly slipped through the corridor. The beautiful woman took Tommen to a place like a kitchen, and found some moldy food and "clean water".

After swallowing the last bite, Tommen said: "I have regained my strength, let's escape!"

He didn't know how long he had been stuck here, he only knew that he might be on the boat.Now that a rescuer came suddenly, Tommen was naturally full of hope.

This must be someone sent by my mother!

The plump and charming woman smiled slightly, "Okay, please follow me."

The boy followed the woman out of the room, circled around in the dim passages and corridors, and finally stopped in front of a certain door.

"Push this door and you can go out, Your Majesty, please go first."

The boy couldn't hide the joy on his immature face. He walked to the door and pushed it open.

Before he could react, a kick came from behind, kicking him into the room, and then the door was locked.

"The bastard born of incest is only worthy of drinking dog urine!"

After saying this, Tyene Sand spat towards the door and turned to find her sisters.

It took a long time for Tommen, who looked astonished, to understand what was going on. After he realized that what he had just drank was dog urine, a burst of nausea rushed up from his stomach.

even wow!

What I ate was vomited out again, and some gastric juice was added.

……

Tyene—one of the Red Viper's bastard daughters—walked to the largest room in the upper cabin, opened the door, and entered.

There are three women in the room, either sitting or standing, in different postures.

The two of them were similar in appearance to Triene, and they were both eye-catching beauties, but in front of the most beautiful one, they turned into green leaves as a foil.

The most beautiful was of course Prince Doran's eldest daughter, Arianne Nameros Martell.

She has the common olive skin of the Rhoyna, but it is smoother and more delicate, and her facial features are as if carved by the most outstanding sculptor, three-dimensional yet soft at the same time.

What made Trieni and the other three cousins ​​even more jealous was that Arianne's body was plump to the extreme, round where it should be, and how it should be.

"Feed him a bad meal and dog piss," Tyene reported to the sisters.

"Under the current situation, it is impossible for us to bring Tommen out of Blackwater Bay. It is better to kill Tommen as soon as possible to avoid any accidents." Obara - one of Tyene's sisters - expressed her thoughts.

In addition to the search on land, some longships of the Redwyne fleet were blocked near Dragonstone Island, and some longships were searching the entire Blackwater Bay.

"But father asked us to bring back a complete and living king, so that Tywin could be forced to confess to the world, admitting that he sent people to murder children and weak women." Tyene stared at her cousin, knowing that Arianne was the one The one who calls the shots.

After word of Duskendale's battle reached Sunspear, Oberyn the Red Serpent sent his niece Arianne north with three Sand Snakes to capture Tommen.

The exceptionally intelligent Prince Oberyn himself is an all-rounder in both civil and military affairs. He once studied in the Academy City and got five collars when he was in his twenties, breaking the record of the bachelors for thousands of years.

After carefully analyzing the situation, the Red Viper thinks that the imp, who is as wise as him, must not have hidden Tommen in a small castle in the north of the king's land, because sooner or later the hostile forces will find him.In addition, Duskendale City is close to the sea, so he concluded that the little devil sent his nephew to the Marseilles Peninsula across the bay.

Marseille Cape and Crab Peninsula are the two major "arms" surrounding Blackwater Bay, but because the terrain of Marseille Cape is too small, and there are only two small castles, Sharp Point and Shiyangbao, they are not noticeable.

After listening to her uncle's opinion, Arianne led the people from Sunspear City, headed straight to Cape Marseille, and then landed at the sharp point. After a few days of carpet inspection, they found Tommen and the others.

The target was successfully obtained, but the retreat was not so easy.

The Redwyne fleet blocked the exit throat of Blackwater Bay and Dragonstone, preventing Dorne's ship from getting out.

Arianne had to let the captain float the longship around Blackwater Bay to avoid the warships of Stannis and Redwyne.

Nymeria, the last illegitimate daughter of the Red Viper, said: "I think it's better to take Tommen ashore. Now that the three parties are competing for the kingship, we are safe with the most noble hostages."

Triene, who advocated not killing, also agreed with this view, "We are running out of fresh water, it's time to go ashore. Tommen can't kill him now, let father deal with him."

The arrogant Arianne glanced coldly at Tyene, who had the closest relationship with her: "What are you talking about? Isn't he just a Lannister bastard? Is there anything you dare not kill?"

"Exactly!" Obaya, who advocated killing Tommen, stood up with folded arms, "When they killed their aunt and cousins, did they ever have the benevolence of the two of you?"

The four people had two opposite opinions, which made the scene a little awkward.

After thinking over and over, Arianne slammed the table, "Kill, kill now! Put our Dorne's spear on the corpse, and place it in a conspicuous place in the king's land, so that the lions can also taste the pain of losing their loved ones." taste!"

Tyene and Nymeria looked at each other and asked the cousin, "What will we do after we kill them? We may not even be able to escape from Blackwater Bay."

Arianne obviously had her own ideas, "Let's take people ashore, go to the dragon bearer, and see his dragon first before making any plans."

She considers herself to be the future master of Dorne, and she will ride a giant dragon to conquer the world in the future.

"Father and uncle didn't respond to the dragon bearer's request to send troops. Will he be angry and take us hostage or something?" Obara asked.

"Why don't you have any knowledge at all?" Arianne's beautiful face showed a trace of contempt, "Tomen is the only hub of the Lionflower Alliance, and the one who benefits the most from killing him is the Dragon Bearer. It's too late for him to thank us. , how could it be against us?"

Different from the Six Northern Realms, Dorne's succession order only depends on birth order, not gender.

Therefore, Arianne is the first heir of Dorne who is serious and honest, and has been educated by a prince who is a prince who manages the people and governs from childhood.

The three Sand Snakes looked at each other in blank dismay, and had no choice but to accept their cousin's arrangement.

The four girls took their weapons and walked together to the room where Tommen was kept.

After Tyene unlocked it, Arianne and the others entered in a file.

The boy who was still vomiting looked at the four women who came in again with a blank expression on his face.

"Look at his innocent and humble appearance, he seems to be an innocent child."

Obaya cursed, pulled out the knife from the back of her waist, and wiped it back and forth on her smooth arm twice.

"Let's do it together! We Dornishmen are one big family, and we will take revenge together if we have a grudge." Arianne ordered.

So the four girls stepped forward together and began to act recklessly.

……

Ten days later, sow horns.

Five hundred cavalrymen and one thousand infantrymen carrying the banner of the twin towers on a white background entered the camp of the Hejian Army one after another. Judging from the untidy marching ranks, this was a newly formed army.

Moreover, the mail armor, plate chain armor, and helmets on the soldiers were of different styles, and there were many pits and scars. At first glance, they looked like armor stripped from the dead.

The combat effectiveness of such soldiers is worrying, but for Arthur, it is a strong boost.

After several discussions, King Hejian re-established the covenant with his most powerful vassal, the Frey family:
Twin River City has always provided Arthur with an army of about 5000 people and a dozen powerful knights; after acquiring Raventree City, the number of soldiers will be one thousand more; the two territories must supply as much food as possible at a par price .

The Frey family also got a lot. In addition to the previously agreed territory and the duke titles of the Twin Rivers, the cripple Rosso officially included a noble illegitimate son in the covenant.

The specific point is that Arthur must have a boy with a certain Frey girl, and as Aegon IV did, make it known to the whole realm to legalize this child and become a noble illegitimate child with the same status as a legitimate child.

With a legitimate child, a noble illegitimate child cannot inherit the throne.

But according to the Targaryen tradition, the king's brother and uncle often serve as prime ministers, and legitimate brothers often have titles such as "Prince of Summerhall" and "Prince of Dragonstone Island". But it can also serve as the Hand of the King, such as the Duke of Blood Raven, Brynden Rivers, who has served as Prime Minister for a long time, and has a lot of power for a while.

If Arthur can really get the Iron Throne, then the Frey family's gamble has really paid off a lot.

At least the family status will be raised to the level second only to the seven great feudal monarch families.

And in terms of strength, it has secured the No. [-] family in Hejian.

You must know that the strength of the two Vance families is not very impressive, but when outsiders mention the great nobles of the riverland, Vance always ranks alongside the Frey, Bracken, Blackwood and other families. Vance's branch, the Vance family in Yalan City is also an earl family.

After reaching a new agreement, Twin River City quickly sent such an army, which expanded the strength of King Hejian a little.

Chinese army tent.

The newly arrived [-] soldiers only made King Hejian happy for a while, and a pair of people who were very difficult to deal with were brought in front of him.

Locke Holt yelled carelessly: "Your Majesty, although I didn't find that child, I brought you a female knight who is about the same height as you. It must be very exciting for you to ride. She is also worth a lot of gold dragons!" "

The female knight Locke mentioned was Brienne Tass, who had been loyal to Sansa Stark before and was sent out to find Arya.

Next to Brienne in plate armor was James, one of the golden twins.

It's just that James, who used to be handsome and unrestrained, is now disheveled, and the porcelain and gold-plated plate armor of the Kingsguard has also been removed, and he is only wearing a worn-out black robe.

What made this Lannister even more unable to lift his head was that his right hand was cut off and was hanging in front of his body.

James' lifelong dream was to be a great knight who left his name in the history books, and being selected as the Kingsguard strengthened this dream.

At the tournament in 281, Tywin had already arranged for James to marry Lysa, the second daughter of the Duke of Hoster, and agreed with the Tully family on the timing of raising troops to support the crown prince Rhaegar against the Mad King.

At that time, the Hejian Land had already formed a semi-alliance with the Northern Territory, plus the Western Territory, and Rhaegar's wife, Dorne, the four realms supported Rhaegar.The attitude of the other three realms is unclear, and the only thing the Mad King can rely on is the king's land and the royal fleet.

It’s just that although the mad king Aerys II is crazy, his mind is extremely clear. He also ran to Harrenhal after not leaving the Red Keep for many years, and took James, who was full of knight dreams, as the Kingsguard, and brought him to King’s Landing City, faintly as a hostage.

This not only interrupted the marriage between the Tully family and the Lion family, but also made Master Taiwen afraid to raise an army.

What happened later was very surprising. Rhaegar, who was planning to rebel, died fighting to protect his father's throne, and the Targaryens temporarily withdrew from the stage of power struggle.

Then James killed the king he swore allegiance to for the 50 civilians in the city, and was dubbed the "Kingslayer" by Robert and others. Also unsatisfactory, the two siblings got together, making James more and more far away from chivalry.

Arthur looked at the kingslayer whose hands had been cut off, "You should too."

Bran and Arya, who have not broken their legs, have almost the same hobbies, but after falling from the tower, Bran's dream was also shattered. James' right hand was chopped off, and the knight dream was completely shattered, which is also retribution.

Locke Holt was still babbling and talking about asking for gold.

"These two people are also considered important people, so I will pay you and your thousand gold dragons for your hard work."

After waving Locke out, Arthur ordered Podrick to untie Brienne.

"Ser, your loyal Sansa Stark is helping me at Harrenhal. You can choose to go to her, or you can stay here and help me."

Brienne said with a proud face: "Miss Sansa has other tasks for me, so I don't need you to arrange them for me. Just give me a horse and return my weapons and luggage to me."

Arthur nodded in agreement, and sent Podrick with the knight to do it.

As for James, the River King didn't say much to him either.

It was his own choice to push that kid Bran down the tower, and every decision in life has a destiny-ordained reward.

After Arthur ordered the Kingslayer to be strictly guarded, the downcast James was also taken out of the tent.

"The messenger of Dorne begs to see you."

Just as Arthur was about to inspect the new Frey soldiers, a guard broke in suddenly.

"Who is it? Are you accompanied by Lord Jason Mallister?"

Since sending the lord of Haijiang City to Sunspear City two months ago, there has been no news from Dorne.

The guard replied: "It is a group of Dornish spearmen, and their leaders are four women. The leader calls himself Arianne Nameros Martell."
