  Chapter 121 Party

  Samwell walked in the dark corridors of the Red Castle, thinking about what Petyr Baelish said just now.

  Actually, from Petyr’s point of view, Samwell is regarded as “one of his own”,

   After all, the two shared a "little secret".

  Of course, in Petyr's eyes, "one of our own" should be sold if necessary.

  Now, as Samwell is a "rookie" who has just arrived in King's Landing, Petyr will definitely try to win him over first, and it is estimated that he will give Samwell some small favors, so that Samwell will wholeheartedly charge for him.

  But it was absolutely impossible for Petyr to guess that Samwell had already seen through his whole plot and knew that he was the real culprit who murdered Duke Jon Arryn.

   This lack of information is Samwell's biggest advantage today.

  He must use this advantage as much as possible to deal with the most ambitious schemer in Game of Thrones.

   This is also the primary purpose of his visit to King's Landing this time.

   This is not only to avenge being manipulated by him as a pawn, but also a decision made by Samwell after careful consideration.

  Littlefinger's goal is the chaos of the Seven Kingdoms, so he can fish in troubled waters and take advantage of the situation.

   But this is not what Samwell wants to see—at least not what he wants to see now.

  Although chaos is an opportunity for every ambitious person, if you want to fish in troubled waters and even climb up, you must have enough strength to support it.

   And now Samwell seems to lack confidence.

  The time he came out to open up is too short, the castles in the territory have not been fully built, the number of troops is not large enough, the attribute panel also needs time to upgrade, and the territory of the Dane family, he has not yet fully controlled.

   Anyway, he needs time.

   Originally, his time was already tight enough, but Littlefinger was still fanning the flames, forcing Jon Arryn to die a year earlier.

   Doesn't this mean that Samwell lost another year of farming development time.

  Although Samwell also wants chaos, what he wants is a controllable small-scale chaos, so that he can have room to display and grab enough benefits.

   Like the previous battle of Starfall City, it is perfect.

   But if an all-out war of the scale of the War of the Five Kings breaks out, with Samwell's current strength, he can only follow the Hewan army to fight soy sauce.

   At that time, no matter how brave he is in the battle, the territory and interests will still belong to Mr. Inflatable Fish. At most, he will get some flashy "glory".

  This kind of loss-making business cannot be done.

  So when he came to King's Landing this time, besides taking revenge on Littlefinger, he also wanted to try his best to prevent the situation of the Seven Kingdoms from completely collapsing in a short period of time.

  Of course, Samwell didn’t come to be an envoy of peace. He is also a careerist himself, but a cautious careerist.

  He knows that if he wants to rise quickly, he also needs chaos—chaos within a controllable range.

   For example, the Iron Throne crusade against Dorne, such chaos is very appropriate.

  Samwell now has a foothold in the west of Dorne, and already has the basis to plot Dorne.

   But he also knows how difficult it is for outsiders to conquer Dorne. The Martell family saying "unyielding, unyielding, and unyielding" is not a joke.

   Therefore, he must use external forces to weaken Donne as much as possible.

   To provoke the Iron Throne against Dorne, the dirty water of Jon Arryn's death must be poured on the "Red Viper".

As for saying that this is unfair to the "Red Viper"... Samwell has no interest in clearing his enemies of suspicion, and the "Red Viper" is not an innocent little white rabbit, and he will definitely be the one who conquers Dorne in the future. A stumbling block in the way, so it's best to get rid of it.

However, in this way, Samwell's methods of dealing with "Littlefinger" will be limited. After all, the truth about Jon's death cannot be used to deal with this person. .

  Samwell actually already has a rough plan, but he still needs to meet several important people in it.

For example, the incoming Hand of the King, Duke Eddard Stark, this person is very important to Samwell's plan, he must confirm whether this person's behavior style is really as upright as in the original book to the point of rigidity.

  Oh, by the way, besides this, there is an annoying little fly——Hopper Redwyne, Samwell is going to set up a trap and slap him to death.

   While thinking about it, Samwell had already come to the garden, and then found Margaery talking and laughing with Natalie.

  The heads of the two girls are almost together, and their attitude is extremely close. I am afraid that no one will believe that they are sisters.

  Beside them sat two brothers from the Redwyne family.

  Horace didn't hang his arms this time, but he saw the sweat on his forehead and his twitching cheeks from time to time, well, he probably regretted it now, for the sake of demeanor, he didn't want his arms, it was really cruel.

  Huo Bo stretched his neck long, as if he really wanted to join the conversation between the two ladies, but he couldn't find an entry point, and his anxiety was written all over his face.

  The two brothers were sitting beside Mark Mullendall. The eldest son of the Highland City looked leisurely, drinking tea and feeding the monkey on his shoulder with nuts.

"Shan...Master Caesar." Natalie was the first to notice Samwell's approach. She wanted to run over to greet her, but she sat down quickly. It seemed that seeing the crowd, she began to pay attention to reserve, and even changed her name. became official.

   "Sam! Come and sit!" Margery was still so enthusiastic, and her smile was still so sweet, like a summer rose.

  Samwell stepped forward to greet everyone one by one, then sat down beside Natalie, and asked:

   "What are you talking about?"

   "I'm talking about your flaming sword." Margaery said with a smile, "So it's the Dane family's inherited great sword [Dawn]! This is the first time I've heard that someone has used the inherited great sword as collateral."

  Seeing Margaery's narrow gaze, Samwell couldn't help but blush, but he still pretended to be calm and said:

   "The main reason is that no one will use that sword in Starfall City, so I will use it first to avoid waste."

   "That's right." Natalie nodded again and again, and chimed in, "Sam is really good with that sword, it can make the sword catch fire."

"What's so strange about the fire sword?" Hopper couldn't help but said, "The red-robed monks in the free trade cities on the other side of the narrow sea know how to do this. They smear wildfire or similar combustibles on the sword, and then ignite it to intimidate the enemy. , In fact, the power is average."

  Samwell was about to respond when he heard a male voice from a distance:

   "It's really average. I once personally killed a red-robed monk who used a fire sword, and that guy's sword broke after burning."

   When everyone turned their heads, they saw three figures walking over.

  The person headed by it was none other than Princess Arianne, accompanied by "Dark Star" Jelo Dayne, and Damon Shad, the illegitimate son of God's Grace City.

  These two Dorne knights were also captured by the Riverbend people during the Battle of Starfall, but they were later redeemed by the Martell family.

  Samwell was quite impressed with the "Dark Star" with black and silver hair.

  Because this person is the eldest son of Viscount Palong of Gaoyin City, he also contributed the most in the battle of Starfall City last time, and of course suffered the heaviest loss as a result.

  Not only did she fail to inherit Starfall City, but she even lost her hometown, Gaoyin City—after Natalie officially became the Earl of Starfall City, she confided Gaoyin City to Hughes Dane.

  So, without thinking about it, this Geraldine must be full of hatred at this time.

   It was this person who spoke just now.

   "Dornish people, why don't you pray in the Great Sept of Baelor, what are you doing here?" Horace shouted loudly, as if blaming the pain in his arm on the Dornish people.

   "Yeah, here is a gathering of people from the River Bend, and you are not welcome." Mark Mullendall also continued.

  The people of the Riverbend have always been united in dealing with the Dornish people.

  Samwell felt that he should also be more gregarious, so he also answered:

   "Is it because the gods are unwilling to respond to your confession, so you ran out to find other ways to escape?"

"Hahaha…"

  Amidst the laughter, the hot-tempered Princess Arianne was rarely angry, and the smile on her face was as bright as ever, as if she didn't hear the ridicule from the people in the river bay.

   "Everyone, whether my uncle is guilty or not will be judged by His Majesty himself. As for our coming this time, we are adhering to the last wish of Duke Jon Arryn before he died—peace."

  Hearing that Princess Arianne moved Duke Jon out, the people of the Riverbend couldn't laugh anymore.

  Samwell looked at the Dorne princess who looked like a different person, and was a little surprised.

   This is a beating, a big change in personality?

   "Your Royal Highness." Margaret stood up abruptly, and said politely, "We in Hewan have always loved peace, but peace is never just spoken. How do you, Donne, prove your sincerity?"

"The Martell family has recognized Earl Natalie's rule over Starfall City. This is our greatest sincerity. In addition, Sir Gerald, as a member of the Dane family, is now willing to pledge his allegiance to Miss Natalie. "

  As soon as Princess Arianne finished speaking, Geraldine came to Natalie and knelt down, saying loudly:

   "Dear Miss Natalie Dane, I, Geraldine, would like to offer you my unparalleled loyalty."

  Natalie was a little surprised, but she has experience now, unlike before when she always went to see Samwell or her mother when she encountered such a situation.

   "I accept your allegiance."

   Samwell frowned as he watched from the sidelines.

  It seems that the Martell family still hasn’t given up on Starfall City. They talk about peace, but they end up doing things like mixing sand.

  However, Gero's surname is Dane after all, and Natalie is really not easy to refuse when he swears allegiance in public.

   As for who this guy is loyal to, it's hard to say.

  Samwell felt that he wanted to remind Natalie privately later to be on guard against this person.

  After the allegiance ceremony was over, Gero did not get up immediately, but took out a pink rose from his bosom and sent it to Natalie:

   "Miss Natalie, I am dazzled by your beauty. This rose represents my heart and is for you."

   Now Samwell frowned even tighter.

  Good guy, it’s not just mixed with sand, this is to pick peaches directly!

  Natalie was really at a loss this time. She didn't want to accept the rose in her heart, but she was embarrassed to reject a knight who had just sworn allegiance to her.

   Just then, Hope Redwyne spoke:

   "Sir Gerald, don't you see that Miss Natalie doesn't like your roses? Put the flowers away soon."

   Zero immediately narrowed his eyes and turned to look at Hooper.

  Hopper looked at him without flinching.

  The strong smell of gunpowder diffused.

  Samwell watched this scene from the side, and a faint smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth.

   Look, the scapegoat is here.

  You can swatt the flies.
