Game of Thrones: Attack on the North Wolf

For the Tyrells of Highgarden, the sleepless night quickly passed in the midst of business.

Due to physical problems, the elderly Olenna went back to her bedroom to rest near the early morning.Time passed, and the next day's sun cast wisps of morning light on the white marble of the High Court's outer wall.

Boom, boom!
A rapid sound of wooden sticks hitting the ground woke up Olenna, who was in a light sleep. She didn't open her eyes immediately, but closed her eyes and fell asleep quietly listening to the sound outside the door.

"Right hand, go in and report, I want to see grandma!"

"Master Vilas, Madam hasn't rested for long, if it's not urgent..."

"It's an urgent matter! Go and report it!"

Hearing this, Olenna opened her eyes and sat up, and softly ordered the maid who was watching the night in the corner of the room: "Go out and tell your right hand to let Vilas come in!"

"Yes!"

Squeak!

The solid wooden door carved with exquisite rose patterns was pushed open, and Vilas, with an excited face, immediately rushed into the room and reported to Olenna who was sitting on the comfortable big bed:
"Grandma, according to the report from the guard at the west gate, Lando Tully has returned from the Crake Hall with thousands of soldiers. He is now heading towards the inner fort."

"Rando returned early with thousands of soldiers? Well, this is indeed a good thing for us to defend Highgarden. However, I think there may be some problems on your father's side."

When Olenna heard the news, her eyes moved left and right subconsciously and she answered.

"No, grandma, don't worry! Father will bring [-] troops to attack the crake hall with only a few thousand people. There will definitely be no problems.

Maybe Earl Randyll was sent by his father to report the good news of the victory! "

Vilas didn't think there would be any problems on his father's side, and he comforted Olenna with a very sure tone.

While Vilas was answering, the other twin guard also came to Olenna's bedroom with his left hand.

After Olenna reached out her hand to signal him to wait, she said to Vilas, "Vilas, you take Margaery to the gate of the inner castle and wait for Earl Landau. Give him all the schemes of Highgarden and Tywin Briefly introduce."

"Okay, grandma!"

"Wait, remember to be polite and gentle. After all, he is your elder!"

"Don't worry, grandma, I understand!"

After Vilas turned and left the bedroom, the tall and burly left hand saluted softly and reported: "Ma'am, I have found the murderer who assassinated Renly II!

It was the maid who accompanied him to High Court, and she was also the only outsider who had access to the food in the inner castle.

After she poisoned Renly II's dessert yesterday afternoon, she found an excuse to leave the inner castle, and finally fled from the Avenue of Roses towards King's Landing.

Last night, I led people to hunt her down overnight, and finally captured her in the area close to New Barrel City.

After interrogation, she confessed that she was assassinated on the orders of 'Littlefinger' Petyr Baelish! "

"Hehe, this is also one of the means that Tywin is showing me! It seems that Littlefinger, who relies on women's bodies to obtain dirty money, also has a lot of undercover spies placed by Tywin."

Olenna heard the words, and while answering to her left hand, she got up from the comfortable big bed and walked to the wardrobe in the corner of the room.Seemingly remembering something, she continued with a cold snort with gloomy eyes,
"Hmph, fortunately Margaery rarely eats desserts in order to protect her white and neat teeth. Otherwise..."

Seeing Olenna's actions, the maid in the corner immediately stepped forward to help her change her clothes.

"Ma'am, what should I do with this maid?"

"Bury it! We just don't have enough fertilizer for the plants in our garden. Also, she certainly doesn't carry the Tears of Lys with her at all times, and there are some mice in Highgarden.

Follow this line to find them all and bury them in the garden as fertilizer! "

"Yes!"

Listening to Olenna's casual conversation with her left hand, the maid who was waiting for her to change her clothes couldn't help feeling chills down her back, and her hands couldn't help trembling.

Feeling it, Olenna patted the back of the maid's hand with her backhand, and said softly, "Don't worry, the rose's thorns will only pierce those hands that try to pick them!"

The warm sun gradually rose, and Vilas and Margaret brothers and sisters accompanied the stern Earl Landau into the throne room.

After seeing Olenna who was sitting and waiting with a smile on her face, Earl Landau bowed his head and went straight to the subject: "Mrs. Olenna, have you made a choice regarding the letter from Tywin Lannister?" ?”

"Of course not, this is a choice that will determine the future of the entire Riverbend Kingdom. I just want to borrow the wisdom of Earl Landau.

From your point of view, how do you think I should choose? "

Olenna shook her head directly when she heard the words, and complimented Earl Randyll a little.

"Lady Olenna, we in Highgarden have always had rumors about Robb Stark. This time I saw him in person during the siege of Crake Hall.

He has a group of huge and terrifying direwolves.And his own strength can also be called the top level in Westeros.

The most important thing is... his ice magic that can almost control the situation of the battle! "

Hearing Olenna's question, the upright and shrewd Earl Randall did not answer directly, but introduced Robb in his eyes without answering the question.

"Direwolves? How big are they? Can anyone really raise direwolves?"

"Ice magic? Is it the kind of trick that turns water into ice?"

Earl Randall had just finished a long speech and was breathing for air.Vilas and Margaery behind him interrupted at the same time to ask about topics they were more concerned about.

"Hey, don't be rude, you two! Let Lord Randle finish!"

Seeing the performance of the two of Margery, Olenna frowned and coughed lightly.

"Sorry, Lord Randyll!"

After being reprimanded by Olenna, the Margaret brothers and sisters immediately apologized to Earl Randall.

"It's okay, I'll answer your questions later."

Earl Randall tilted his head to answer them, then turned to Olenna and continued,
"Just now I talked about Robb Stark's combat power, and let's talk about his wisdom. Tywin, who is famous for his strategy in Westeros, has been defeated by him, and now even the western border is occupied by him.

In the recent battle of Deep Cavern City, although there were [-] to [-] recruits trying to disguise and deceive everyone, under the leadership of Tywin, at least they could drag the enemy for many days.

But in just two or three days, Robb defeated the [-] to [-] troops and rushed to the Crake Hall in time.It can also be seen from this that he has battlefield judgment and execution ability. "

"Well, Lord Randyll thinks very highly of Robb Stark. So, you mean to ally me with him?"

After listening to Earl Randall's words, Olenna couldn't understand what he meant by these words.

"Yes, Mrs. Olenna! It may be that he has stayed in the gold piles of the Western Territory for too long, and Tywin Lannister only has interests in his eyes. He treats the covenant he signed with you as waste paper and has no sense of honor.

And Robb Stark should be deeply influenced by his father Ed Stark, and will do his best to fulfill the promises he made.

The Western nobles who fled to Highgarden in the first place were because of the promise Robb Stark made to Tywin Lannister at Riverrun to exchange the prisoners of the West a few months ago.

And in my opinion, the North lacks allies!
Southern countries generally have prejudice against northerners.Most of the Tully family in Hejian, which he originally relied on, was destroyed by Tywin's army.The Valley is still in civil strife.

Also, if Vale is truly under Littlefinger's complete control, he should fall to the Iron Throne.

As for the squids of the Iron Islands, with his wisdom, he should be able to understand that it is impossible to rely on them to rule the Seven Kingdoms!

So, just as Lord Harlan Tyrell offered Highgarden to Aegon Targaryen.

As long as we successfully form an alliance with the northern border, he will definitely give us enough benefits for his own reputation.

Most importantly, Robb Stark is young enough and has no queen yet! "

Seeing that Olenna understood what she meant, Earl Landau simply said what was in his mind.In the end, his eyes were on Margaery who was standing beside her.

After listening to Earl Randall's words, Olenna and Vilas focused their eyes on Margaery.

Feeling everyone's eyes, after roughly weighing the pros and cons in his mind.

Margaery bit her rosy lower lip fiercely and said, "Grandma, for the Tyrell family. Even if Robb Stark is ugly and vicious, and loves to eat human flesh, I can marry him.

As long as... as long as I can become queen! "

"Margaery, don't worry!
Now, whether we choose Robb Stark or Tywin Lannister, our kingdom in the Reach will be the Reach again.But we have to sell ourselves for a good price!

Although it sounds like Robb Stark has more advantages, I still can't accept his new law that allows commoners to obtain fiefdoms and can be promoted to Duke at the highest! "

Seeing that Margaery could accept Robb who was full of negative rumors for the benefit of the family, Olenna spoke with some emotion.

"?"

Earl Landau, who was listening to their conversation at the side, was full of surprise, and he immediately said,

"Please don't believe those rumors. Robb Stark is handsome and has the bearing of a king. As far as I know, his new law can only be promoted to the highest knight class, and it has to be reviewed by the nobles.

How big can a knight's fief be?If he can really win this war, there will be enough land for rewards. "

"Oh? So, I was deceived by Tywin again?"

"Mrs. Olenna, Queen Margaery and all the adults! There is a letter from Raven from Crake Hall!"

While everyone in the Throne Hall was discussing lively, Maester Lomis, who served in the High Court, came to Olenna's side from the back passage of the Throne Hall with a letter from Raven.

"Is it Mace's letter? Bachelor Lomis, tell me directly! There are no outsiders here!"

Upon hearing this, Olenna asked Maester Lomis to tell the news about Raven's letter.

"It's a letter from Robb Stark. He said in his letter that the Duke of Mace, Sir Garland, Sir Loras and more than 4 soldiers of the Kingdom of the Reach have been captured. Let us pay them the corresponding ransom!

At the end of the letter is the Duke's seal of roses, it looks like it should be real! "

Bachelor Lomis, who had read the contents of the letter a long time ago, heard the words, and carefully stated the contents of the letter.

Snapped!
After listening to what Bachelor Lomis said, Olenna patted her forehead with one hand, and said with a very angry tone: "Hey, 5 people were captured by thousands of people! My wise son It must be knowing the difficulties we are encountering now.

This is helping us make choices! "

"Mrs. Olenna, the Duke of Mace cannot be entirely blamed for this. The strength shown by Robb Stark has already surpassed the level of ordinary warfare.

Perhaps only the resurrection of the dragon of the Targaryen family can suppress him! "

As soon as Olenna said something, Earl Landau, who had been targeted by the Duke of Mace, offered to explain it for him.

"A dragon?"

Olenna repeated Earl Randyll's words in her mouth, and then she spoke to Earl Randyll with a determined look on her face,
"Earl Landau, from now on Vilas will assist you in guarding Highgarden. Of course, you have the absolute right to deny his opinion.

No matter what you think, I need you to hold on until reinforcements arrive! "

"Yes!"

Earl Landau and Vilas exchanged glances, immediately saluted and accepted orders, and turned to leave the throne room.

"Margaery, I will send my right hand to Crake Hall with a guard and a gift for Robb Stark.

If Robb Stark is who Lord Randyll says he is, then this is your best chance to be Queen of the Seven Kings.

When negotiating alliance conditions, you can try to relax a little bit of the bottom line.Like the patriarchs of House Tyrell, we give first, then take back!
Well, that's all.I believe you will be able to successfully form an alliance with the Stark family on behalf of the Tyrell family! "

After seeing Earl Landau and Vilas leave, Olenna looked at Margaery tenderly and said.

"I see, Grandma!"

Margaery, whose eyes sparkled inexplicably when she heard Earl Randyll's description just now, replied with a sweet smile on her fair and pretty face.

"Right hand, you should know what you should do. By the way, tell your left hand to bury the three envoys of the Lannister family in the garden."

"As ordered!"

As Olenna, who actually controlled the Tyrell family, made a decision, the entire High Court became busy.There are still about three days before the combined army of the Rebel Kingdom arrives at Highgarden.

……

Da da da!
On the golden avenue, a team of Lannister family cavalry, numbering at least a thousand, was riding forward.

Wearing gorgeous armor, Tywin with a red ribbon on his shoulders and Marqoro with a bandaged left arm, were protected by these Lannister family cavalry in the middle of the team.

In front of the Golden Avenue, facing the menacing cavalry unit flying the banner of the great nobles, and various civilians in the temporary gathering place, the merchants immediately moved to both sides of the road in a panic, giving way to the road.

A man with a sword wrapped in a cloak was out of place with those who left the Golden Avenue in a panic. He walked against the road to the middle of the road, and then waited quietly with his head bowed.
咴儿~~
"What are you doing? How dare you block the way of the Prime Minister, get out of here!"

In front of the Lion's Gate in King's Landing, the Lannister family cavalry at the front saw this ignorant man with a sword, and immediately drew out his long sword and shouted loudly.

Hearing this, the man with the sword raised his ugly face full of burns and scars and said loudly: "I am Jaime Lannister, and I want to see my father!"
