Game of Thrones: Knight of Glory - Chapter 140 The Savage King’s Plan
Upon hearing the exaggerated words of the Savage King Hamil, both Lind and Nymeria seemed very calm, as if what the other party said was some trivial matter.
The Savage King Hamil was a little surprised when he saw the reaction of the two people, which made him hesitate for a moment, and a trace of worry appeared on his face, but because of the thick hair on his face, his expression was well hidden.
“Barbarian King Hamil, how do you want to give Well City to me?” Although Lind didn’t believe what the other party said at all, he still asked with some curiosity.
The Savage King thought for a while and said: “The lord of Weil City, Wylan Weil, has no heirs. Once he dies, Weil City will be inherited by other branches of the Weil family. But what if Wylan Weir has a daughter? According to many With the inheritance rights of En, the daughter can also inherit the territory, then this daughter will be the lord of Well City. “
“What does this have to do with me?” Linde frowned and said.
The Savage King suggested: “You can marry this…”
Before the other party could finish speaking, Lind raised his hand to stop the other party from continuing. Then he pointed at Nymeria beside him and said, “If I want to marry a wife in the future, she is the only choice.”
The Savage King was stunned and looked at the expressionless Nymeria, not knowing how to continue.
In his plan, after he gave this suggestion to Linde, Linde would definitely agree. After all, who could ignore a territory as big as Weir City, and then he would use this to propose his true purpose.
However, things developed completely unexpectedly. His plan was interrupted as soon as he opened his mouth, and he now had no backup plan to use.
“Your method is to let Linde marry Wyland Vill’s daughter after Wyland Vill’s death, and then control the city of Vill indirectly by controlling that woman,” Nymeria looked at the Savage King calmly and said: ” As we all know, Wyland Vale has no descendants, how do you ask that so-called daughter to prove her identity?”
The Savage King hesitated for a moment, as if he felt that the trip might have failed, and was a little reluctant to continue talking.
Nymeria seemed to see through his mind and said, “You can continue to convince us, maybe we will eventually be interested in your plan?”
The Savage King thought for a while and felt that what Nymeria said was reasonable, so he explained his question: “Wyland Vale had many enemies. He was worried that his heir would be assassinated, so when his daughter was born, he secretly She was sent to a good friend in Yronwood City as an adopted daughter, and all the certificates that could prove her identity were left behind. Now his daughter and those certificates are in my hands. As long as someone legally marries his daughter, she will wait until later. Once Wylan Weil dies, he can legally inherit the territory and title of Weil City through these certificates.”
“It’s a good idea. As far as the leader of the savage tribe is concerned, it is already very good to be able to think of this method.” Nymeria clapped her hands, her words seemed to be praising the savage king’s plan, but it sounded like something was wrong. , she changed the topic and said: “But you think of the Lord Succession as a bit simple. The Lord Succession is not as simple as changing the leader of your savage tribe. The identity only allows that woman to be qualified to inherit the city of Well. It does not mean that she will definitely be able to inherit the city of Well, and you are sure that those certificates are perfect and cannot find any loopholes. As long as those certificates have a little loophole, they will become invalid, and the woman you control will be accused of being a liar. The ultimate destination is the guillotine.”
Among the people in the tent, Nymeria is the most qualified to talk about how difficult it is to inherit a territory and a title. When she inherited her mother’s title, she encountered all kinds of doubts and difficulties, and she almost failed. Inheriting Tengshi Town, this happened with the secret help of Prince Lewen, Arthur Dayne, Barristan the Fearless, and Gerold Hightower, the White Ox.
In Dorne, even women can enjoy the same inheritance rights, but without the support of the surrounding local nobles, even if they have the first right of inheritance, it will be difficult to inherit titles and territories.
Then again, even if Lynd married that woman, how could the border lords headed by the Yronwood family allow a lord from the Reach to intervene in Dorne’s territory.
The Savage King fell silent after listening to Nymeria’s narration. Even though he was covered by thick hair, the look of confusion and disappointment on his face was still clearly visible.
It’s no wonder that he has such an expression. Anyone who finds out that the plan they have thought about for a long time will be full of loopholes and useless will be disappointed.
“Your plan is not bad.” Just as the Savage King was thinking about what he was going to do next, Linde suddenly praised the plan he had just rejected.
This made the Savage King feel puzzled, and Nymeria also looked at Linde in surprise.
Linde explained: “It’s just that your plan needs to be slightly modified. The person who married Wylan Veer is not me, but someone else, a Dornishman.”
There was a look of confusion in the Savage King’s eyes. He obviously didn’t understand the significance of Linde’s modification and how it was different from his plan.
On the contrary, Nymeria looked thoughtful, as if she understood what Lind meant.
Linde asked: “How old is that woman? What evidence is there to prove her identity?”
“That woman is twenty years old. There are things that can prove her identity…” The Savage King saw the turn of events and quickly answered Linde’s question, telling him all the certificates he had in his hand that could prove the woman’s identity. .
These certificates included clergy oaths, correspondence between Wyland Vail and the person who adopted his daughter over the past decade, and an identity document signed by a maester.
Not to mention other proofs, just this document from the bachelor is enough to prove his identity. This document is usually written by the bachelor of the family after the birth of a noble child. It details the birthmark characteristics of various parts of the child’s body. , and it is made in duplicate, and the other copy will be sent to the school city for archiving in case identity problems arise in the future, and it can be used as proof of identity.
As long as the characteristics of the birthmark on that person are consistent with the content on the document, it is enough to prove his identity.
After listening to the Savage King’s narration, Nymeria nodded, indicating that such complete supporting documents were enough.
Linde asked doubtfully: “Don’t Wylan Weir know that his daughter has fallen into your hands?”
“No, he doesn’t know.” The Savage King replied solemnly: “He thought his daughter was dead.”
After hearing this, Lind and Nymeria looked at each other, and then said seriously: “Barbarian King Hamil, you found me, and then told me this plan to give me a chance to control the city of Well. Your purpose for doing this is For what? Just to kill Wyland Vail?”
“You…how do you know?” The Savage King looked at Linde in surprise.
“It’s very simple. The basis for your plan is that Wylan Vile must die.” Nymeria answered for Lind, and asked curiously: “There are rumors that you are the illegitimate son of Wylan Vile. Can you become The Savage King is also supported by Wylan Weir. If the rumors are true, you should be very grateful to him. Why do you want to kill him? “
Faced with this question, the Savage King was silent for a long time, and finally said with hatred in his eyes: “He killed my mother, and asked the skinners from the north to peel off her skin and make it into a leather coat to wear.”
Upon hearing this answer, Nymeria’s face immediately darkened. Even without the Savage King, she had already sentenced the lord of Well City to death in her heart.
Lind wrinkled and asked: “Since you hate Wyland Weir so much, why don’t you take action yourself? You are now the Savage King, and you have at least two thousand Savage Tribe warriors in your hands. With this little human attack A castle like Vile City may not be enough, but if it is just a sneak attack on Wyland Vail, it shouldn’t be a big problem. And judging from the fact that Wyland Vail is still supporting you, he has not seen your hatred for him. Why don’t you find a chance to do it yourself?”
The Savage King explained seriously: “Wylan Weir did not see my hatred for him, but I am not the only enemy of his, so he has always been very careful and rarely leaves his castle. Even if he does, , there will be many people around to protect them, and they will not risk going to the north bank of the Weir River. Moreover, my people are all in Hongtuwang. If I want to go to the south bank of the Weir River, I will definitely alert the outposts in Blackport and Weir City, and it is impossible to make a sneak attack. ”
Hearing the words of the Savage King, Lind looked at the Savage King thoughtfully. He obviously lied about this matter. Since he was able to bring more than two hundred Savage warriors to the vicinity of the Weir River silently, then he obviously Knowing a shortcut to bypass the Blackport Watchtower, it shouldn’t be a big problem to transport more savage warriors here. It would even be a simple matter to cross the Weir River further. There is no danger of being discovered.
When a person deliberately lies, many of his behaviors become suspicious. Linde’s originally slightly relaxed vigilance is restored, and he quickly finds out many problematic aspects of the Savage King.
“You are looking for me now and offering such a generous offer. How do you want me to help you get revenge?” Linde asked while integrating the doubts found on the Savage King in his mind.
The Savage King said very seriously: “In a few days, a batch of supplies will be handed over to me in Vail City. Wyland Vail will be there in person at that time, but I can’t bring too many people there, and the weapons will also be delivered nearby. The location was confiscated, and there was no way to take action. You only need to lead people to ambush there in advance, and take action to contain the guards posted by Wylan Weir on the outside and create chaos. “
“Where is that delivery location?” Lind asked.
“In a small valley near Weir City.” The Savage King did not tell the exact location, and seemed to be worried about Linde’s misunderstanding, so he immediately explained: “The valley is very secluded, and it is difficult to point out its exact location with words. I will send a guide to take you there when the time comes.”
Nymeria asked at this time: “Didn’t you say that Wylan Vile would not easily take risks? Why did he leave Vail City to meet you in person this time?”
The Savage King explained: “This is because Lord Linde’s arrival has caused his plan to control the area north of the Weir River to fail. He needs to rearrange my arrangements. These things are difficult to explain clearly through raven, and it is easy to leave clues.” , so he met with me in person and told me what to do next.”
After listening to the Savage King’s explanation, Linde did not ask any new questions, but closed his eyes and meditated.
There was a trace of nervousness in the Savage King’s eyes, as if he was a prisoner waiting for his sentence.
After a while, Linde opened his eyes and said, “I agree to cooperate with you. When you hand over Wylan Weir’s daughter and the documents proving her identity to me, the cooperation will officially begin.”
The Savage King frowned and said, “Wylan Weir’s daughter and those documents can only be given to you afterwards. What if I give them to you now and you regret it?”
Linde said disapprovingly: “Just like you don’t trust me, I don’t trust you either. Wylan Weir’s daughter and those documents are just words from your mouth. I have not seen the real objects and cannot verify the authenticity.” “Pseudo, who do you think would risk attacking a Dornish lord with you in this situation?”
The Savage King opened his mouth, but couldn’t find anything to refute. Then he thought about it and said, “Then we have to sign an oath…”
“Impossible!” Linde shook his head and said: “How can there be any written record of planning an attack on the Lord of Dorne? Are you waiting for someone to threaten me with that thing one day?” As he said this, he was very serious. Said: “I am the Seven Gods recognized by the Church of the Seven Gods. I will swear in the name of the Seven Gods to help you deal with Wylan Weir. If you don’t even believe this oath, then there is no need for us. Cooperated.”
The Savage King was silent for a moment, nodded, and said, “Yes, I believe your oath. I will send someone to deliver the woman and the documents tomorrow. At that time, you must swear in the name of the Seven Gods to help me complete my revenge.”
After saying that, he was about to turn around and leave.
“Wait, it’s not over yet.” Lind stopped the Savage King and said, “The daughter of Wylan Veer is not enough for me to help you. You have to pay other prices.”
“Greedy mountain outsiders!” The Savage King couldn’t help but mutter, then looked at Linde and asked in a deep voice: “What else do you want?”
Linde said solemnly: “After I help you take revenge, you must bring your people to join me, and then assist my army in wiping out other savage tribes.”
After hearing Linde’s words, the Savage King was silent for a moment and asked tentatively: “What other tribes do you mean? The tribal alliance that appeared recently…”
Lind directly interrupted the Savage King and said, “What you want to ask is whether the tribal alliance that is against you is mine, right?”
The Savage King said nothing and just looked at Linde.
Linde admitted very directly: “Yes, they are my people. They came to Summer Hall not long ago to seek refuge with me. I provided them with weapons and food, and asked them to form an alliance to help me clean up the savage tribes in my territory. . I think through our cooperation, you will also become allies.”
After hearing this, the Savage King’s face darkened for a moment, but he quickly returned to normal, then nodded and said: “Yes, as long as you help me take revenge, I can agree to your request and cooperate with you to clean up all the savage tribes in your territory. “
