Chapter 101 Disagreement

  "Yes, Prince Oberyn ."

  Samwell grinned, admiring the expression of the mighty prince at this moment.

  Prince Oberyn was indeed shocked, because he had come to Starfall to try to draw the great sword - any self-important Dorne knight would try it.

  Of course, he failed.

  The proud prince would certainly not admit that he was not strong enough, so he attributed it to the fact that this giant sword only recognizes the blood of the Dayne family.

  But now, Prince Oberyn was both embarrassed and shocked that a Reachman had pulled out the Dawn.

  If he hadn't looked at the self-proclaimed Sword Keeper Lucas Dane standing behind Samwell, he might have thought that the other party had taken a fake to show off deliberately.

  After a while, Prince Oberyn pretended to be calm and said: "Well, the young knight has good strength."

  "Thank you for your compliment,Prince Oberyn ."

  "Is that great sword [Dawn]? Let me see it?" Princess Arianne walked quickly , full of curiosity.

  Although she had just suffered a disastrous defeat at the hands of Samwell, the Princess of Dorne not only showed no hostility, on the contrary, her words and deeds were friendly.

  If someone who didn't know saw it, they would think she and Samwell were lovers.

  Samwell, however, always kept vigilance and distance from this Princess Arianne, because he knew that this was a beautiful snake, attractive but also dangerous, and he better stay away from her.

  What's more, now he can be regarded as Dorne's archenemy.

  Princess Arianne's intentional display of intimacy must have no good intentions.

  "What's so good about this sword. Let's go to my father and the others. Prince Oberyn , you must have something to discuss with them?"

Prince Oberyn glanced at his niece and nodded expressionlessly: "Okay. "

  When they found the group of reach nobles, they just finished dividing up, oh no, they collected the war compensation they deserved.

  The Steward Alf's footsteps were sloppy, and his whole body was in a trance, but when he saw the giant sword behind Samwell, he also showed the expression of seeing a ghost.

  He originally thought that Samwell's so-called taking the great sword as collateral was to move the rock together, but he never thought that Reach knight would actually pull [Dawn] out of the rock.

  The other Reach nobles were not very surprised, after all, they didn't know much about the details of this giant sword.

  "Reach Nobles , let's talk," said Prince Oberyn, straight to the point.

  "Yes." Earl Randyll nodded expressionlessly.

  Afterwards, under the arrangement of the steward, everyone entered the castle meeting room .

  After sitting down, Prince Oberyn made a straightforward request:

  "I want to take Arianne away. In addition, I also want to redeem those captured Dorne knights and soldiers. You can make a price."

Earl Randall responded : "The ransom for knights and soldiers will be paid according to the usual practice, and we will not make things difficult for you. However, if you want to take Princess Arianne away, you must agree to one condition."

"What condition?" Earl Randyll pointed at Natalie, who was on the main seat, startling the little girl, "You must represent your elder brother and recognize the identity of lady Natalie Dayne."

  Prince Oberyn also turned his attention to Natalie, this time the little girl was even more nervous.

  She only felt that Prince of Dorne's eyes were like a poisonous snake, crawling around her body.

  Moreover, Prince Oberyn remained silent, making the atmosphere in the hall even more stagnant and gloomy.

  Seeing that the little girl was about to cry from fright, Samwell coughed lightly and urged,

  "Your Highness, is this request not too much? As long as you agree, Princess Arianne can leave with you."

  Prince Oberyn finally spoke: "She is from the Dayne family? Why have I never seen her before?"

  Samwell said with a smile: "Your Highness, you should know Miss Ashara Dane, right? She's in my territory now, if you don't believe me, you can go and confirm it yourself. And this Lady Natalie is her biological daughter, so she is also the first heir of the Dayne family."

"Ashara's daughter ? Who did she marry? Why don't I know?"

  "Married to Luen, the patriarch of the Raven tribe, under the witness of the gods."

  Prince Oberyn seemed to continue to ask question's , but Earl Randyll interrupted impatiently :

  "Okay, Oberyn, your own illegitimate children are all over Dorne, so don't pretend to me that marriage is sacred and devout."

  Prince Oberyn smiled frivolously: "It is precisely because I attach too much importance to the sanctity of marriage, so I dare not step into its palace lightly. As for my illegitimate children, I never intend for them to inherit anything."

"Prince Oberyn, we are not interested in your attitude towards marriage "

Alekyne Florent also said, "Now our condition is only one, to admit Lady Natalie's identity, otherwise, don't even think about taking Princess Arianne away."

  "Then I won't leave. ." Princess Arianne said with a smile.

  As she said that, she also gave Samwell a wink: "It's just that i wanted to go to Reach. I heard that the men there are as gentle as water."

  Prince Oberyn glared at his niece, and then stood up , came to Natalie and stood still, just looking at her condescendingly.

  The little girl huddled pitifully in the chair, her face pale.

  Samwell also stood up, stood in front of Prince Oberyn, and said,

  "Your Highness, bullying a little girl is not something a knight should do."

  "Hey! The justice knight has stepped forward." Prince Oberyn whistled, his eyes full of provocation, "Samwell Caesar, dare to fight with me? You win, I will admit it but if you lose, this little girl, Arianne will follow me."

  "Enough! Oberyn Martell!" Earl Randyll stood up and said angrily, "You are now the defeated side, and you have no right to mention Conditions! Either accept our conditions, or get out of Starfall City!"

  Prince Oberyn shrugged: "But I can't represent my brother. How about this, the little girl will return to Sunspear City with me, let my Brother see her in person."

  "Impossible!" Samwell refused resolutely, "Why don't you ask Prince Doran to come to Starfall City. I heard that he hasn't walked out of the his Garden for many years, I'm afraid quite a lot of benefactors are starting to worry about whether he is dead, so I suggest that it is better to take this opportunity to let Prince Doran come out to dispel some rumors."

"The young man is very courageous." Prince Oberyn looked at Samway, with a fierce look in his eyes.

  Samwell was happy and fearless: "It's okay, it's okay, at least I don't dare to poison people."

  "Hahaha!" Prince Oberyn burst out laughing, he stepped back a few steps, his cold eyes swept across Reach nobles , "Reach nobels , you are standing on the land of Dorne now! Do you really think we dare not start another war?"

"Then come. We will wait for you here. "Samwell immediately responded happily .

  He knew that the Martell family would never fight another war, not only because it would be difficult for Dorne to support another war after a big defeat, but also because it would seriously damage Prince Doran's "revenge plan" .

  Prince Doran's sister, Princess Elia, married Prince Rhaegar Targaryen, but during the Robert's rebellion , the princess was killed by the rebels who invaded King's Landing, and even her two children were killed brutally .

  For this matter, Prince Doran has always wanted to avenge his sister, and even secretly planned to restore the Targaryen Dynasty.

So it is impossible for him to escalate fight with the Reach nobles at this time.

  On the contrary, the Reach is actually a potential ally of Dorne.

  Because in the Robert's rebellion war, Reach was a staunch royalist party. Although the new king accepted the surrender of the nobles of Reach after the war and did not care too much about them, but in the current political structure of King's Landing, there is no Reach nobility in council.

  Therefore, the Tyrell family has been seeking to return to the core of power.

  Under such circumstances, it is impossible for Prince Doran to start another war. He only wants to reconcile with Reach as soon as possible, and even win an alliance.

  Therefore, Samwell is confident.

  Prince Oberyn, he also knew and was only bluffing.

  However, even if it was a bluff, the aura of this "Red Viper" was really terrifying, and the temperature in the entire meeting room seemed to have dropped to freezing point.

  Just when the two sides were at a stalemate, a maester walked into the meeting hall.

  "Lady Natalie, the raven has brought news from King's Landing."

  "King's Landing?" Samwell was a little surprised.

  Natalie took the letter, unfolded it, and handed it to Samwell sensibly.

  Samwell took a look, the expression on his face changed slightly, and said:

  "Everyone, Lord Jon Arryn, the Hand of the King, is coming to Starfall City "

  "That's fine, just wait for that old guy to mediate."

  After speaking, Prince Oberyn left the meeting hall with Princess Arianne.
