The ironmen of the Iron Islands spent more than a month of happy time in White Harbor in the northern border. Relying on the confrontation between Lannister and the northern border, even if the lords paid attention to their invasion, they could not organize effective resistance. And the fleet continued to plunder the wealth of White Harbor.

When the news of the battle in the Riverlands came, the Lannister troops who originally traveled north with Theon to help the battle also gave up the stalemate with the Umber and Karstarks in the northern border, and chose to withdraw their troops from Ironborn Bay by water.

Seeing that the troops from the north had returned, Asha could only organize the last batch of looting and bring the news to Winterfell by the way.

"The army that Lannister attacked the northern border with you before received Tywin's order to return from Iron Group Bay, and now you also need to return to the Iron Islands with me." Asha came to Winterfell and suggested to Theon road.

"It's not long since I occupied Winterfell, and the battle between the Stark Rivers has cost a lot of people, we have the ability to defend Winterfell." Theon retorted.

"The ironborn are not good at defending the city, they only plunder. The Northland still needs to be cultivated by Starks, and the ironborn can organize the next wave of invasion in more than a month. And what about the children of the Stark family? It can be traded with King's Landing or the North." Asha looked at Theon.

"I'm sorry I only caught Bran, and now I'm missing." Theon said guiltily with his head down.

Asha turned her head and looked at Theon contemptuously, "As far as I know, one of the children of the Stark family is disabled, and you didn't catch any of Stark's children, and let the only disabled one go! "

"You accept the baptism of the Drowned God, and you have to disassociate yourself from Stark, act quickly! Don't wait for Stark to break through Winterfell, and you kneel to your so-called brother Robb Stark Begging for a living." As Asha spoke, she began to mobilize the Ironmen of Winterfell to use carriages to rob usable supplies and the salt concubines in their mouths.

Theon gritted his teeth, he was heading towards the king of the Iron Islands, and then took advantage of the civil war between the lion family and the wolf family, captured a large area of ​​land in the river and the north, and then separatist and crowned the king, restoring the old days of the iron people As a result, he is not even a Pirate King now, and he still has to rely on his sister.He decided to win over a group of ironmen, release the prison for his own use, and prepared a majestic speech by the way, preparing to make some ironmen and criminals around Winterfell surrender and follow him to fight.

On the hills beside the Mander River, the white marble is built into the high court of the most magnificent castle in the Seven Kingdoms.

The high courtyard inside the city wall is like a green paradise, with flowers blooming everywhere, gardens, pools, and artificial waterfalls dotted the entire castle.The castle is full of stone carvings, fountains and marble colonnades, grapes and roses decorate the walls and sculptures, and the ancient buildings are covered with vines.From the tower of Highgarden you could see all the manor and fields for a few leagues around, full of flowers and golden roses.

Emerald golden roses also fluttered over Highgarden Castle.

"Call your two younger brothers, Margaery's letter, King's Landing proposes a marriage." Highgarden's "Queen of Thorns" Olenna said to Vilas who was sitting in a wheelchair in the hall.

Vilas gave instructions to the attendants, and after a while, Garlan Tyrell the Honest Man and Loras Tyrell, the Knight of Flowers, walked in.

"Your sister's letter says that Dragonstone has taken over the Stormlands, but a member of the Tyrell family must be selected to marry King's Landing before the throne is willing to give up the Stormlands. Is there any one of you who is willing to take the initiative?" Olenna asked slowly.

"With whom? Why didn't Dragonstone marry the Iron Throne?" Knight of Flowers asked.

"Lannister's daughter, Queen Cersei, the owner of Dragonstone Island has no clan, so in order to win over Dragonstone Island, King's Landing chose Dragonstone's ally, Highgarden." Olenna glanced at the three children.

"Dragonstone eats the Stormlands, why should Tyrell pay for it?" Garland said, "And the scandal of Cersei and his brother Jaime's Imperial Guard has spread throughout the Seven Kingdoms. Lil' naked insult."

"Hmph, insult! You guys are really interesting. If such an insult can be exchanged for the land of the Stormlands, then I would rather send all three of you to marry Lannister. Dragonstone has no clansmen. Margaery and Dragonstone Combined, the Stormlands and Tyrell are already closely related. The future owner of the Stormlands will keep half of the blood of the Tyrells. I think you already know about Dragonstone Island. Remember Velaryon back then! They can Get involved in the dragon owned by Targaryen, now that Margaery marries into Dragonstone Island, it is possible to bring Tyrell one step closer, waiting for Margaery's offspring to be born, and the dragons on Dragonstone Island multiply , Tyrell was even better than Velaryon back then."

"The Tyrell family was originally loyal to the royal family of the Reach, the Gardener family. When the last Reach King, Menn IX of the Gardener family, died in the Battle of the Fire, Harlan Tilly, the head of Highgarden, Er gave his city to Aegon I the Conqueror, for which the first House of Dragons brought Highgarden to Tyrell, and now there is a second House of Dragons, and in the future he and Tyrell's blood will inherit the Stormlands , as long as the dragon does not die in the internal friction like a blood dragon dance, Tyrell will rely on Margaery to give birth to the first batch of dragon knights, and your nephew may become the master of the Iron Throne in the future."

"Then why did we agree to the marriage of King's Landing, directly mobilize troops to attack King's Landing and Storm, and then make Dragonstone Island king?" Loras asked

"The dragon is still young, Lannister's background is still there, the Iron Throne is still Baratheon, Margaery's child has not yet been born, everything is still uncertain, Tywin wants to win High Court one step closer, High Court is also If you can take advantage of the trend and bet on both sides, the future owner of the Iron Throne will also thank uncle for his sacrifice." Olenna looked forward to looking at her three grandchildren.

I saw Loras and Garland staring at each other, silent.

Olenna spread her hands and tilted her head, "What are you hesitating about? It's just that marriage doesn't make you a husband and wife. As long as you stay in King's Landing and you lie on the bed in the brothel every day, the Lannisters won't say anything even if they know it well. All they need is the name of Highgarden."

Seeing the two younger brothers pushing and shoving, they still had no intention.

"Let me go!" said Vilas, who was sitting in a wheelchair.

"I'm already a useless person, and they may still have a future." Vilas murmured.

"That's it! Get ready to go, first go to Dragonstone Island to see Margaery, and by the way, see if the new Duke of Stormland needs any generals, and then go to King's Landing to attend Vilas' wedding."
