Chapter 310 Gift?

"You are very welcome, Mrs. Olenna!" The girl came to the Queen of Thorns and said gently and politely, "I will go and order the kitchen to prepare some good desserts and tea for you. Do you like lemon cake, or some Cheese, ma'am?"

"I'm sorry to trouble you, just give me some blue cheese for this old woman, child!" Mrs. Olenna raised her head and looked at the girl tenderly, while holding Mia's wrist with mottled and smooth hands, "I You are kind enough to not like to eat sweet food, and you are willing to prepare a special dessert for me, an old woman who came here uninvited."

Mia had heard that Mrs. Olenna was called the Queen of Thorns, but the old woman in front of her looked so gentle at the moment. How could such a gentle and polite old woman have thorns on her body? "This is what I should do, ma'am!"

Looking at the back of the girl leaving, the Queen of Thorns turned around as if Gao Yuan had inquired about the girl's life experience: "The girl just now is very familiar to me, Mr. Gao Yuan!"

"I just don't know who the girl's father is, and which valley lord's lady does she come from?" the Queen of Thorns asked curiously.

"Miss Mia Shidong, although she was named the illegitimate child of the Valley and was born in Eagle's Nest City, her father's family did not come from a lord's family in the Valley." Gao Yuan told the other party, "The girl's father just Passed away, I have not had time to tell her the sad news in the future."

"At this moment, I believe Ma'am, you have already guessed the girl's life experience, haven't you?"

"Although the girl has slender limbs but broad shoulders, she has smooth and straight charcoal black hair and blue eyes." After Gao Yuan's reminder, Mrs. Olenna suddenly realized, "No wonder I think she looks so familiar, It turned out that the girl was the man's illegitimate daughter, and the girl was almost as handsome as her father when he was young."

“What a poor kid”

"Suffering and misfortune are the best gifts that the gods bestow on us mortals. Only in this way will we know how to cherish them more. It's just that the gods have given this 'girl' a little more gift." Gao Yuan sighed softly.

"But fortunately, the girl met you, Mr. Gao Yuan."

"This poor girl is favored by you now, and her days of misery are over." Mrs. Olenna's words made Gao Yuan frowned, "Although an illegitimate daughter can't get the title of Duchess as a lover, But from now on, she no longer has to worry about her livelihood and the days when she will live without a fixed place in the future.

"I don't understand what you mean, ma'am!" Gao Yuan hastily stopped the other party from continuing to speculate, "I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding in this, Miss Mia Shidong is not my lover. She is just my assistant and maid, always The castle takes care of my work life."

"What's more, Miss Mia Stone now has a lover of her own. Her lover is Mr. Michelle of the Redford family, and Michelle Redford is Sir Lynn Corbray's attendant After a few years, when he becomes a knight, this young couple will enter the palace of marriage."

"Oh, innocent love!" Mrs. Olenna nodded irresistibly. In this way, the girl's suffering is probably far from over.After all, the girl's identity is an illegitimate daughter, determined by her origin, and she can't get rid of the shackles of not being able to combine with nobles with noble backgrounds.

The marriage between Mia Shidong and Michelle is destined not to have a good result, no matter under any circumstances.Even Gao Yuan, the Duke of Eagle's Nest City, has no right to interfere with the marriage between his subjects and their children, let alone order the son of Earl Redford to marry an illegitimate daughter.

She knew that the Redford family was a family with a long history in the canyon region, and they even had the blood of the ancestors in their bodies.She might be his love, but the Redfords would never allow a bastard daughter to be welcomed into the house.

Perhaps in the near future, his family will help him arrange a well-matched marriage.Even if Michelle Redford slept with this girl, it didn't mean anything.

"Ms. Olenna, in my opinion, let's get back to the topic!" Gao Yuan took the initiative to change the subject, and now he is really curious about the purpose of Mrs. Thorn's long journey, "Let's sit in this castle and discuss private matters." Marriage between a daughter and aristocrats, it is better to talk about many more urgent topics at once."

"Since Madam, you are here as Lord Renly's messenger this time, then you should stop messing with me here, and tell me straight to the point why he sent you to the valley to find me!"

"That's just an excuse. You and I both know that Renly Baratheon can't command me." Olenna blew her nose. demented son of the Tyrells, and sixty thousand Reach soldiers loaned to him by the Tyrells."

"As far as I know, your son and Sir Loras have knelt down and sworn allegiance to Renly." Gao Yuan disapproved of this, "After all, Lord Renly is always so charming and charming that your grandson Ser Loras is bewitched by him."

"He was thought to be so resembling the young King Robert that many of the Stormlands' subjects chose to support Renly as king over his brother Stannis Baratheon."

"Yes, Renly was charming and well bathed. He knew how to dress himself, how to smile, how to bathe and look so much like the dead King Robert that he concluded that he fit and should Become a king!" The Queen of Thorns scoffed at Gao Yuan's words, "There is no doubt that the people of the Baratheon family will always have some ridiculous ideas from time to time, and I think this is all inherited from their Targaryen blood. of."

"But not everyone will be overwhelmed by Renly's charm, such as an old woman who is half-deaf and half-crippled like me." The Queen of Thorns said, "In a few years, maybe my eyes will gradually become less useful At that time, even if he takes off his clothes and stands in front of me, I will not be able to open my eyes to appreciate it."

"They wanted me to marry a Targaryen, but I refused."

Gao Yuan really doesn't like to have old troubles with the Queen of Thorns, but she can always divert her topic to strange directions: "The Duke of Mace likes him very much, and Sir Loras is even more so."

"Loras is still young!" Lady Olenna said bluntly. "He is good at knocking people off horses with a wooden club, but this kind of game among knights does not make him smart. As for mine Son, I sometimes feel like I'd be a peasant woman in the country, so that I could hit him with a dung spoon and pour thoughts into that fat big head."

"The demented Lord of Highgarden is still in the rebellious stage. I warned him before that. Robert has two sons under his knees, and an elder brother above Renly. What right does he have to ask to sit on that ugly table?" iron chair?"

"There is something I think you need to know, Lady Olenna!" Gao Yuan reminded the Queen of Thorns, "King Robert's three children were not born to him and Queen Cersei, but to Queen Cersei and her brother who killed the king. the result of incest between them."

"It doesn't matter anymore. Frankly speaking, the Targaryen family has been engaging in incest between brothers and sisters for 300 years." The old woman said flatly, "Anyway, the Lannister family, where Zhang Tie will not sit on the throne for long, will he?"

"It's a fact. The Lannisters are enemies all over the world right now, and their enemies are almost everywhere in Westeros." Gao Yuan agreed, "Those who are unpopular, even if they are lucky enough to sit on the supreme iron The throne, one day, will be driven down again."

The Queen of Thorns asked Gao Yuan with great interest: "Master Gao Yuan, guess what conditions my stupid son was going to use to convince me?"

Gao Yuan shook his head. Before that, he might be able to answer the other party confidently.But the news of Renly marrying Margaery as queen has not come from the south, which shows that the current situation has undergone a huge change.

"Tsk tsk tsk my silly son asked me excitedly, don't you want your sweetheart to be queen?" Mrs Thorn made no secret of her disdain for her son, "I said if you ask me, I have to say that we don't Shouldn't have been in this muddy water, it's a pity that broken mirrors don't come back together again.

"If you say it, you can never take it back, so we have to bite the bullet and follow Renly to the end."

"The prospect of seeing his grandson sit on the Iron Throne in the future makes him get carried away and self-inflated." Madam Olenna complained, "If truth be told, my son should use the inflatable fish that is abundant in the Summer Isles as the family crest. .”

"Better get a crown on the fish's head, like the Baratheons did on their stag, and he'll be content," said the Queen of Thorns. After the duke put on the crown, our family had to kneel endlessly and be led by the nose."

"It's a pity to let Miss Margaery Tyrell, who is known as the 'Highgarden Rose', marry Renly Baratheon." Gao Yuan said.

Mrs. Olenna asked back: "Lord Gao Yuan, you also think it was a wrong choice for the Tyrell family to marry Margaery to Duke Renly, right?"

"Ma'am, I'm not questioning the marriage between the Tyrell family and Lord Renly." Gao Yuan quickly explained, "It's just that I heard some bad rumors about Lord Renly before that. "

"Don't worry about explaining, Master Gao Yuan!" The Queen of Thorns didn't take it seriously, "I also have the same idea as you, and we should all be thankful for this, because this matter has not been really promoted yet."

"Ms. Olenna, I don't understand." Gao Yuan's mind suddenly became a little confused, "Hasn't the Tyrell family already entered into a marriage with Lord Renly Baratheon?"

"Hmph, my demented son sent his daughter to Lord Renly's bed with full expectation, but who would have thought that someone would send her back right away. In fact, they don't even look down on our baby Rose." Thorn The queen snorted coldly.

"Renly Baratheon insulted the Tyrell family so much, why did Lord Mace continue to choose to swear allegiance to Lord Renly?" Gao Yuan was even more puzzled at this moment.

It stands to reason that the Duke of Mace Tyrell has already reached this point, Renly Baratheon shouldn't be so ignorant, otherwise this would be the greatest insult to the Tyrell family.The woman took the initiative to send her daughter to the man's bed, but the other party sent the girl back intact. If this is not an insult to the Tyrell family, what is it?
However, the reality is so magical. Renly, who rudely rejected the marriage request of the Tyrell family, not only was not kicked out of the castle by the other party, but also received the Tyrell family's oath of allegiance to him.

"Renly promised that after taking the Iron Throne, he will invite Mr. Inflatable Fish as his Prime Minister. This is also the honor that my demented son has been longing for." The Queen of Thorns told Gao Yuan. "At the same time, he also promised to appoint Loras as the new guardian of the west."

"Loras will become the new owner of Casterly Rock City, but this will have to wait until he has wiped out all the Lannister family remnants there."

"The conditions offered by Lord Renly are not unattractive. But this is just a dream come true." Gao Yuan sighed, "Renly is not the only one who intends to fight for the Iron Throne, his brother Stannis is also present We are intensively preparing for the battle for the throne. The direction of the war is still unclear, and it is still unclear who will win the battle."

"It is precisely because the outcome of the war is yet to be known that we have made this long-distance visit, Lord Gao Yuan!" The Queen of Thorns smiled at him, "Renly Baratheon hopes that you can stand up Supporting him on the throne, even if it doesn't win you back him, won't put you on the side of his enemies."

"Lord Gao Yuan, you should be very clear about who Renly Baratheon's enemies are. Apart from those from the Lannister family, who else can threaten Lord Renly?"

"I'm sorry, ma'am!" Gao Yuan resolutely rejected the other party, "East Realm had no intention to intervene in the battle for the throne between Lord Renly and Stannis, and I can only express my apologies for that."

"Don't rush to refuse, Lord Gaoyuan!" The Queen of Thorns smiled slightly, "Don't you wonder what kind of generous terms Lord Renly has offered you?"

After hearing this, Gao Yuan was really ready to move.It wouldn't be a problem for him to listen to the price Renly offered himself, so he could also know what level and status he was in the other party's heart.

But as Gao Yuan changed his mind, he gave up his plan again.Gao Yuan has never forgotten who the person sitting in front of him is. The Queen of Thorns, Olenna, is notoriously cunning.

The other party aroused her curiosity in this way, but only to make him listen to Renly's offer, presumably because she thought there must be a reason that she could not refuse.

"In my opinion, Mrs. Olenna, you don't need to waste any more words." Gao Yuan smiled slightly, "No matter how generous the terms Lord Renly puts forward and the promise he made to me now, those are not the same. It's just a visible, intangible flower in the mirror of water and moon."

"You are wrong this time, Lord Gaoyuan!" Madam Olenna said with a mysterious expression, "The 'gift' carefully prepared by Renly Baratheon for you this time is not the Water Moon Mirror Flower."

The Queen of Thorns asked back: "Now that I have brought you the 'gift', are you sure you don't intend to see what the 'big gift' Lord Renly prepared for you is?"

"This is also the heart of the Tyrell family!"

"It's not just Lord Renly who needs your friendship, the Tyrell family also expects your friendship. I can assure you that you can't refuse this 'gift'."

"From this point of view, I must see the 'big gift' you brought today!" Gao Yuan smiled wryly, "Mrs. Olenna, I have to admit that you have indeed successfully aroused my curiosity. "

"What kind of gift is it that makes you so sure that I can't refuse it!" Gao Yuan said loudly.

As soon as Gao Yuan finished speaking, a strange smile appeared on Madam Olenna's face: "My dear Margaery, you can come in now!"
