Game of Thrones: The Red Dragon Lord

Her eyes revealed an unconcealable joy. Her expectant eyes focused on Gavin again, and then she asked with a bit of coquettishness: "Gavin, you just said a lot of ways? Can you tell me in detail?"

Margaret's tone made Gavin's cheeks flush instantly. He hurriedly smiled, trying to hide the embarrassment that surged up at that moment, and said:

"There are indeed many ways. For example, the Tyrell family can completely ban all gambling games, only retain the most powerful ones, collect and supervise all bets, so that the other party's income can be clearly identified and gambling taxes can be collected appropriately. And the gamblers know that it is the Tyrell family that collects and guarantees the safety of the gambling money, and they will be more assured to place bets. And the public security problems caused by the collapse of gambling games and running away with money every year can also be solved together."

Seeing that Gavin easily proposed another solution, Margaret reacted slightly from her shock. Recalling her eager tone of coquettishness just now, and looking at Gavin's handsome face, her face couldn't help but blush.

But think about it, if she can get these good strategies by being coquettish, it's nothing. Then, she immediately used the same trick again.

The two talked for a long time until a maid ran to Margaret eagerly and said, "Miss, why are you here? Go back to the banquet quickly, the cake is here, and Lord Mace is looking for you."

After hearing the maid's report, Margaret did not answer, but stood up and bowed to Gavin. She made a decision in her heart and invited with a smile: "Gavin, come in with me, let me cut a piece of cake for you, thank you for helping me with advice."

After hearing this, Gavin stood up and returned the greeting: "Then I'll trouble you, Margaret."

The two quickly returned to the banquet hall. At this time, in the hall, a 13-layer cake had been pushed to the middle of the venue.

The Duke of Metz saw his daughter coming in and waved to her, saying lovingly, "Come on, Margaret, it's your turn to cut the cake." Then Margaret walked to the cake, bowed to her father, took the knife handed over by the waiter, and cut the cake. The waiters carried small plates to divide the cake and gave it to the guests who attended the banquet.

A moment later, the Duke of Metz took Margaret, who had just cut the cake, to the high platform and said, "To celebrate my daughter's thirteenth name day." After that, he drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

Suddenly, Margaret bowed respectfully to the Duke of Metz and said, "Father, I want a gift." After that, the scene was quiet, and everyone focused their eyes on the high platform.

Duke of Metz asked curiously, "My daughter, what do you want?" Margaret first glanced at the people in the field, then looked at her father and said, "Father, I hope to get a guardian knight."

Hearing this, Duke of Metz laughed and said to the people in the field, "Is there any good boy willing to be my daughter's guardian knight?" In an instant, the field was boiling, and countless people volunteered.

Seeing this, Margaret bowed to the people in the field, and then looked at her father and said, "Father, can I choose and confer one myself?"

After hearing this, Duke of Metz said cheerfully, "Of course, it seems that my daughter has already chosen someone in her mind." Then he drew the sword from his waist and handed it to Margaret, "Use my sword to confer it."

Margaret took the long sword and took two steps forward. Everyone in the field showed expectant eyes, but Gavin found that Margaret was looking at him, and he couldn't help but feel a little expectant in his heart.

Sure enough, Margaret's next words confirmed Gavin's guess. "Gavin Flowers, please come forward." Hearing Margaery calling him, Gavin walked forward without hesitation.

Soon, the two stood facing each other. Margaery looked at Gavin in front of her and said seriously: "Gavin, you can now think of a new surname for yourself..."

"Belleris" Gavin chose his mother's surname without hesitation.

"Please kneel down" Gavin immediately knelt on one knee after hearing Margaery's request.

Margaery raised the long sword with a little effort and gently placed it on Gavin's shoulder.

"I, Margaery Tyrell, in the name of the daughter of Duke Mace Tyrell, appoint Gavin Belleris as my guardian knight.

In the name of a warrior, I ask you to be brave.

In the name of the Father, I ask you to be fair.

In the name of the Virgin, I ask you to protect the weak."

Then Margaery put down the long sword.

"Get up, Gavin Belleris, Knight of the Seven Kingdoms"

In Westeros, knights have entered the quasi-aristocratic class. However, according to the treatment, knights are also divided into different levels. The highest is undoubtedly the property knights, who will own a village or manor. Although they have no right to make laws in the territory, they enjoy the taxes in the territory.

The second is some paid knights, who serve under the loyal feudal lords and their lives are also supported by the lords.

Finally, there are some people who simply have the status of knights, mostly oath knights and honor knights.

The former only needs to abide by the oath made when canonizing, and the situation is different due to different oaths. If the knight's status is simply canonized, he will be canonized as a knight of the seven kingdoms at the end of the canonization.

But Gavin's situation is slightly different. When Margaret canonized Gavin, she did not let Gavin make any oaths, but simply canonized him as a knight of the seven kingdoms, but the way of canonization was unique to her guardian knight.

The canonization of an unmarried noble girl as a guardian knight is mostly a formal symbol, and the knight only needs to protect her reputation.

If no special oath was made at the time of canonization, after the girl gets married, the guardianship responsibility will automatically be transferred to her husband, and the original knight will become a free knight.

Although Gavin's guardian knight is of an honorary nature, it is still recognized by the law of Westeros. From then on, when civilians saw him, they had to address him as "sir" or "sir". He had the right to recruit followers and build armies, and he also had the right to apply for a development order.

After the canonization, they returned to the courtyard.

Gavin and Margaery, holding a small plate of cake in their hands, strolled into the courtyard just now. Gavin looked at the girl beside him and thanked: "Thank you, Miss Margery."

"You're welcome, Lord Gavin." Margaery teased.

After saying that, the two looked at each other and smiled.

The two of them slowly walked to the tree just now, and Margery asked: "Gavin, what are your future plans? Do you want to stay in the High Court?"

After thinking for a while, Gavin replied seriously: "I plan to travel to the continent of Essos."

"Gavin... then I wish you all the best." Margery hesitated to say anything but gave her last lost blessing.
