Game of Thrones: I Created the Magic Web

Chapter 203 The Thorn of the Golden Rose
The lame Vilas Tyrell looked calm, letting the guard's hand rest on his shoulder.

But soon.

He was trembling all over, surprise and doubt appeared on his gentle and calm face at the same time.

Before he had time to ask the king for instructions, he stood up expectantly, opened his legs and feet strangely, and then walked a few steps normally.

normal!
"Veras, your leg is healed!" Garland and Margaret exclaimed excitedly, sincerely happy for their brother.

The "Queen of Thorns" also couldn't help showing relief.

Even if it's just to cure Vilas' lameness, those things paid are totally worth it.As long as Highgarden exists, gold coins and food are just numbers.

Joffrey smiled lightly, "Veras, do you like it now?"

Vilas Tyrell came to his senses from the joy, and immediately bowed down to Joffrey, "Veras will never forget His Majesty's gift! From now on, Vilas will swear allegiance to you to the death. Your Majesty, give me everything!"

Joffrey waved his hand, "You don't need to die. It's just an errand for you to do."

As soon as this word comes out.

The warm atmosphere in the venue quickly calmed down.

The Tyrells all corrected their posture and continued this serious conversation.

The "Queen of Thorns" seemed to be out of spirits and was resting with her eyes closed.Vilas restrained his excited expression, sat back in his seat, and waited respectfully.

Joffrey glanced at the "Queen of Thorns" before looking at Vilas.

"The rebel army in Ancient Oak City is headed by the Rowan family, assisted by the Oakheart and other families, and almost covered the entire northern princes of the Reach. The momentum is huge."

The "Queen of Thorns" was silent, and the Duke was not present.

The heir of Highgarden, Vilas Tyrell, took up the task of negotiating.

He had to wonder, what did King Joffrey mean by that?A roundabout expression of dissatisfaction with High Court's rebellion?It's not necessary.

In an instant, a lot of history and knowledge he had learned passed through his mind.

He had a few guesses.

"It is indeed worthy of attention." Willas Tyrell responded in a solemn voice, "I don't know, what is your majesty's plan?"

Joffrey reached out and tapped on the table, and the three-dimensional map of the Reach was projected onto the table immediately.

Vilas couldn't help but secretly startled.

Such a detailed map, it looks more accurate and convenient than my own!
When was it surveyed?

Joffrey pointed to the ancient oak city on the map, "Lord Tywin has led [-] troops to the south along the coastal road, and will arrive at the ancient oak city in a few days. We will surely win the battle!"

Villas was silent.

The High Court heard the news two days ago.Originally planned to increase troops to support, now...

"Villas," the king nodded at Gaoting, "you will lead an army of [-] troops up the Mande River to capture the Golden Tree City of the Rowan family and cut off the rebels' retreat."

Let Gaoting attack his own subordinates?

Vilas's heart sank, thinking of a terrible guess.

The king gave no further order, as if waiting for his response.

Vilas hesitated, "How does His Majesty plan to punish these traitors?"

Joffrey glanced at him, shook his head and laughed, "Why do you ask me? These lords betray the king and lord they swore to serve, and covet the honor they don't deserve. Which lord can turn a blind eye?"

Vilas confirmed.

The king really thinks so!Let Gao Ting do it!

Joffrey added: "If it were me, these guys would have to be stripped of all their fiefdoms. Those who have no direct descendants should simply be removed, and their titles and lands redistributed. If there is an heir, only a castle will be left for him."

The more Vilas listened, the more hesitant he became.

If this method is used, and the loyal and serving vassals are betrayed in order to protect themselves, the reputation of Gaoting will definitely plummet.

When it comes time for the vassals to contribute, who else will be loyal?
But if you refuse...

Vilas raised his head, but he seemed to see boundless flames in the king's warm eyes.

"Villas, you don't want to?"

Joffrey was puzzled, "Is it true that, as they said, the Tyrell family was not deceived by the vassals and trapped in High Court, and the Duke of Mace was not coerced by force, but really participated in the rebellion?"

This is true.Vilas did not dare to answer truthfully.

Has Highgarden rebelled?

Was there no rebellion in Highgarden?

The truth is so insignificant that it can be easily covered up and subverted?
Vilas was in a trance for a moment.

The head of the High Court, "Fat Gals", was full of indignation, and then said: "Who is so slandering the High Court? Your Majesty, we have always been loyal to you, and never thought of rebelling!"

Vilas came to his senses and quickly made amends: "That's true! How could the High Court have mercy on the traitor? Your Majesty's suggestion couldn't be more appropriate."

"I'll do it," he said.

The "Queen of Thorns" coughed violently a few times, her voice was cloudy.

Margaery looked at her grandmother worriedly, and then cast an expectant look at Joffrey, which was unbearable to refuse.

Joffrey tapped the table.

The priest who received the order walked to the "Queen of Thorns" to deliver energy.The old woman's face turned red instantly.

Joffrey sighed. "It's hard for you, Vilas."

Vilas waved his hands again and again, "How dare you cling to His Majesty? It's all within Gaoting's business, and it should be handled like this."

"That said."

Joffrey pointed to Golden Tree City, "People who are loyal and meritorious should naturally be rewarded."

"Veras, are you willing to be the consul of Golden Tree City and share Golden Tree City with Lady Bethany Redwyne? Or do you plan to strip off the fief of the Rowan family and rule in a new castle?"

"Or," Joffrey teased, "you want to incorporate these places into House Tyrell?"

Vilas was surprised and terrified.

Among the options given by the king, Earl Matus Rowan, who commanded an army of [-], seemed to have become a dead man.

"Garlan." Joffrey looked again at Highgarden's second son.

"Earl Beric will take a thousand guards to go west with you, and take a rest after incorporating the Shield Islands fleet, waiting to join the Redwyne fleet."

Olenna Redwyne couldn't help opening her eyes.

Joffrey explained: "Lord Paxter's twins have joined the Royal Fleet with the Redwyne fleet, and are now sailing up the Sunset Sea, passing the Shield Islands, the Old Oak, and the Iron Islands, helping everywhere."

Another big news!
The balance in Vilas' heart could not help but gradually tilt.The Redwyne family has already made a choice, is there any need for High Court to be reserved?
Joffrey still has orders for Garland.

"The Oakheart family is about to perish," he pronounced.

"I have negotiated the best terms with Lord Tywin: From now on, the ancient oak city will be directly under the royal family, there will be no lords, only officials, and it will be managed by the western border."

This is the best condition? !Villars couldn't hide his shock.

Joffrey looked at Garland, "However, you can be the consul of the ancient oak city. If you are qualified enough, you can even serve for a long time until the day you die of old age."

"How?" Joffrey urged, smiling.

Garlan Tyrell looked forward, his grandmother's eyes were closed, and his elder brother hesitated, but he quickly gave a firm look.

Garland then bowed down, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the gift!"

Joffrey nodded in satisfaction, and scattered the light and shadow of the map on the table.

The meeting appears to be over.

Margaery couldn't help asking: "Where's Tengshi Town? Don't you need to send troops?"

Joffrey looked out the window at the sky.

The sunset is westward.

"No need, it's about to start over there, and it's about to end."
