Game of Thrones: Holy Flame King

After being separated from Earl Peake, Samwell walked back alone.

At this moment, the banquet was over, and the guests dispersed.

When Samwell returned to the residence, he saw Earl Landau waiting at the door.

The father and son exchanged a look, but did not speak.

After entering the room and closing the door, Earl Landau asked:

"You're not going to back Peake in place of Tyrell, are you?"

"Of course not." Samwell smiled sarcastically, "I just wanted to test the attitude of the horse party nobles towards the Tyrell family, but I didn't expect such an idiot to jump out on their own initiative. Titus Peake, Hehe, is he so eager to wait?"

"The Peak family has always been dishonest," Earl Randall commented sharply. "There is restless blood flowing in their bodies, and this is the reason why they have reached the top repeatedly, but fell quickly."

This is true.

Back when Riverbend was still under the rule of the Gardener King, the Peake family had tried to get their hands on the throne, which led to civil strife in Riverbend for ten years.

After the War of Conquest, the Seven Kingdoms were unified. The Peak family had a king who murdered the queen in order to let King Aegon III marry his daughter.

Later, the Blackfyre Rebellion broke out, and the Peck family once again couldn't hold back their restless blood, leading an army to support Daemon Blackfyre.

When the Blackfyre Rebellion was suppressed, the Peake family also paid the price for their foolishness, and the family's influence was greatly reduced.

The coat of arms of the Peake family is three black castles on an orange background, which symbolizes the three castles owned by the family at its peak: Star Shuttle City, Dustonbury City and White Garden City.

But under some coquettish manipulation by the Peake family, only Star Shuttle City is left in the current territory.

But even so, this family will never learn to be low-key and steady.

Now that the Seven Kingdoms are in turmoil, the House of Highgarden Tyrell is also in an unprecedented decline, and the Peak family is about to start to move again.

"Since Peake is so impatient, I'm going to let them be the knives, so as not to get my hands dirty." Samwell expressed his true thoughts.

"Yes." Earl Randall nodded in agreement with his son's plan, and then asked, "However, what do you plan to do with the Tyrell family?"

"Mrs. Olenna must die!" Samwell said coldly.

"What about the rest?"

"I don't plan to touch the inflatable fish." Samwell explained, "I don't have the strength to take over Hewan right now, so it's better to keep him as a puppet. Otherwise, when Tyrell falls, all monsters and monsters will jump out, and Hewan will only There's going to be more chaos."

"The inflatable fish can indeed be kept. It may not be a good thing for you to let the horse party take power. You don't have enough strength and prestige to make them surrender completely. However, besides Mrs. Olenna, there is one more person you must kill. "

"Are you talking about Paxter Redwyne?" Samwell frowned, "Of course I want to kill him, but Qingting Island is isolated overseas, and we don't have a powerful fleet in our hands, so we can't do anything to him for the time being. "

"Paxter really can't do anything about him, but he can't affect the overall situation, so you can leave him alone for the time being. I'm talking about Loras Tyrell."

"Loras?"

"Yes. Loras doesn't seem to be as threatening as Lady Olenna, but he has to be killed. Because he is the last heir of the Duke of Mace, with him, the inheritance of the Tyrell family is still alive. High Court."

"Didn't Loras like men?"

Earl Randall shook his head and sneered: "So what. Like a man doesn't mean he can't continue his blood.

Believe it or not, once you put Loras back, House Tyrell will arrange a marriage for him, and it won't be long before his wife has a big belly.

As for whether the child is Loras's or not, it doesn't matter at all, because in name, it is the direct blood of the Tyrell family.

As long as there is inheritance, there is hope. And you'll never really control the Reach.

On the contrary, if Loras is dead, the legitimacy of Highgarden lies in Storm's End, in your wife. This is very important.

The nobles of the river bay will completely lose their minds because of this, they will not help a prince who has no future.

The inflatable fish has really become a decoration. Once he dies, you and Margaery's heirs will become the masters of Highgarden. "

Samwell touched his nose and realized that he was really stuck in a deadlock.

For the sake of family inheritance, Loras might actually agree to let someone else exercise her husband's power on her behalf.

It is still impossible to overestimate the bottom line of these nobles.

Earl Randall misunderstood his son's silence and thought he was unwilling to do so, so he spoke again:

"Sam, do you know what your greatest weakness is?"

"What?"

"Not cold-blooded enough." Earl Randall said sharply, "In fact, you do not lack brains and means. You performed very well in the development of Eagle Mouth Island, the chaos in King's Landing, and the war against Dorne.

But at that point, you hadn't officially joined Game of Thrones. Did not meet any decent opponents.

But it will be different after you have a dragon, you can no longer hide yourself.

In the previous deer party rebellion, your weaknesses were exposed. Put yourself at risk for a woman.

But what happened? You're desperately trying to save House Tyrell from the rebels, but Lady Olenna is plotting to kill you.

You treat her as a relative, but she doesn't treat you as a relative.

Now that you are king, you shouldn't have such stupid thoughts anymore.

A king has no relatives, only subjects and enemies.

Surrender or perish.

If you don't understand this, you will pay a heavy price in the future. "

"Thank you for your reminder." Samwell nodded, "I've already died once, and of course I won't be as naive as before. When it's time to strike hard, I won't hesitate any more.

Since Loras is a threat, I'll find a way to get rid of him.

I didn't speak just now, I was just thinking of a way without getting my hands dirty. "

Earl Randall nodded in satisfaction:

"It's good that you understand."

Samwell looked at his father, suddenly smiled and said:

"But father, I'm afraid you don't know that if I'm really cold-blooded enough, maybe the one standing in front of you now is not the real me."

Earl Randyll obviously did not understand this.

Samwell didn't explain much, and continued to speak in a leisurely tone:

"It's as stupid not to trust everyone as it is to trust everyone.

In addition to courtiers and enemies, a king can also have fathers, brothers, wives and children.

The end of being absolutely cold-blooded will only be betrayal.

Even you yourself, in fact, you are not as cold-blooded as you said. Although you drove me out of the house at the beginning, when Yingzui Island was in crisis, didn't you still use all your troops in Horn Hill to help me fight Dorne? . "

Earl Randall stared at his son for a while, then his tone suddenly softened:

"I'm actually worried that you will fall into the same trap again. Margaery Tyrell is not only a key bargaining chip, but also a hidden crisis. You must beware."

"I know." Samwell nodded, "I promised to give Margaery a queen, but I didn't say that the queen will only be her."

"Are you going to marry another one like Aegon the Conqueror?" Earl Randall rubbed his chin, "That's a good idea. Use another woman to balance Margaery and the Tyrell family.

However, before you have absolute strength, don't rush to marry a second one, as this will affect how most Westeros nobles perceive you. "

"Don't worry, I won't be too hasty."
