Game of Thrones: Overlord of the Deep Sea

Chapter 164 Borisaf: Play, just right!

The "political competition" between Tormund and Saigon not only aroused the dissatisfaction of the nobles in their own territory, but also caused the dissatisfaction of other nobles who came to seek refuge with Jack.

Several nobles even found Jack and specifically reported the ridiculous practices of Tormund and Saigon.

Before Jack could speak about this, these people were first reprimanded by Lyanna Mormont.

Lyanna Mormont manages Bear Island. The tax on Bear Island is very low. Even half a year ago, the tax was only [-]%, and there was only land rent tax, and no other messy taxes.

Bear Island was too poor. During that time, it was difficult for the residents of Bear Island to catch fish. Even Lyanna Mormont had to open warehouses to support them, not to mention paying taxes.

That's why Lyanna herself also thinks that reducing taxes is an expression of integrity and kindness of a lord. After all, he can't even take care of his subjects well, so what qualifications does he have to call himself a lord?

Of the five viscounts who came to complain, one viscount showed a deep shame, and the other was very angry, and left with 80 soldiers, while the remaining three all showed resentment expression.

At that time, Lyanna was not afraid of the three of them at all, she did not give in to her eyebrows, not only stared back, but also reprimanded the three of them again.

Although Lyanna didn't take this matter to heart, it was remembered by Jack.

The viscount who left angrily was besieged and killed by a group of bandits on the way, while the other three nobles were closely monitored.

After being reprimanded and ridiculed by Lyanna, instead of leaving, he continued to stay in Hearth City. Isn't this obviously strange?

Hearth City, Jack's study.

"Okay, okay, you like to play tricks, right? Are you my opponent, Liu Huaqiang Poseidon?"

"Since we want to play, let's have fun and just kill chickens and monkeys, so that everyone knows that the punishment of swallowing a dragon is not to scare people."

Jack looked at the letter in his hand and mocked with disdain.

Just now Walker handed him a letter, which was intercepted from the letter crow released by Viscount Cassinoa.

Viscount Cassinoa was one of the viscounts who showed resentment at the beginning, and then Jack arranged for someone to monitor him closely, and at the same time bribed his adjutant, Sir Goodwin Holt.

The letter contained Cassinoa's oath of allegiance to Roose Bolton, followed by Cassinoa's plan.

He decided to unite with the other two viscounts to find an opportunity to assassinate Jack and Lyanna Mormont, who was the first to join Jack, as a gift for Roose Bolton.

And he also promised in the letter that he would take the head of one of Jack and Leanna to seek refuge.

All he asked was that Roose Bolton made them three earls of Deepwood, Hearth, and Cahoe.

However, the letter was handed over to Jack by Goodwin Holt.

Because Jack promised to reward Goodwin Holt with Cassinoa's territory, castle and women as long as he discovered the whole situation of Cassinoa's treason.

Goodwin Holt is not interested in Cassinoa's castle and territory. He has long had a relationship with Cassinoa's wife, and he has an infatuation with Cassinoa's wife.

Even Cassinoa's two daughters are the product of his affair with Cassinoa's wife.

At the beginning, Cassinoa's wife specially calculated the time and directly gave birth to a pair of twin daughters for Goodwin Holt.

To Goodwin Holt's dismay later, Cassinoa did not die fighting south.

Goodwin Holt was about to give up, but Jack's guards suddenly approached him and threatened and lured him to work as an undercover agent.

In the end, Goodwin Holt suppressed the excitement in his heart, pretended to be sad and accepted Jack's "coercion and temptation".

As everyone knows, in Goodwin Holt's view, this is not coercion or lure at all, but a combination of lure + lure that he cannot refuse.

Jack then sends Borisav to fetch Lyanna Mormont.

After Borisaf nodded, the road idiot lost his way in Hearth City for a while before finding Lyanna's residence.

"Count Lyanna, Your Majesty is calling for you." Borisav shouted as he knocked on the door.

After a while, Lyanna opened the door, looked up at Borisaf, and asked with sleepy eyes: "Is His Majesty going to hold a meeting? When will you go?"

Lyanna was obviously woken up in her sleep, and her voice was soft and soft. At this time, Lyanna was more like a 12-year-old little lolita than an earl.

"No, His Majesty called you alone. I don't know the specifics, but I heard what His Majesty said. It's fun, just like that."

Lyanna's drowsiness dissipated immediately, and she raised her head in disbelief to look at the tall, but somewhat naive Borisav in front of her.

At this moment, Lyanna's thoughts changed sharply. She felt that it was not what she thought, but the idiot in front of her didn't seem to be good at lying.

Recalling that during this period of time, Jack often chatted with her, and she suddenly became more convinced of her thoughts.

Given Jack's looks and personality, Lyanna doesn't dislike Jack, and can even be said to like him very much.

In this era, no woman will reject a young king who combines appearance, character, age, wealth, and power.

But, but she is only 12 years old now, and she hasn't even had menstruation, how can she do that kind of thing?

But Lyanna followed Borisaf to Jack's study.

"Your Majesty, Earl Lyanna is here, and I'll go out first." Walker said, and left Jack's study with Borisaf.

"Little Lyanna, I haven't seen you for a day, do you miss me?" Jack greeted first.

Let Lyanna be the bait with him, although there is no danger, but Jack is still a little uncomfortable.

Then Jack said with a little hesitation: "I have something to discuss with you. If you don't want to, I won't force you. I can do it directly."

Lyanna's heart flickered, secretly thinking that it was indeed the case.

Then, in order to avoid the embarrassment of the two after Jack revealed his purpose, she directly answered first:

"Your Majesty, I'm too young. I haven't had my menarche yet. Can I wait two years? I... I can use other methods. I also learned some when my mother taught my sister.

But in exchange, would you give House Mormont a piece of land to work on?There is no need for fertile land, as long as it is ordinary land that can be cultivated, this is my request! "

Lyanna blushed when she said those words, and she knew what she meant by them.

Lyanna knew that the laws of Atlantis allowed the Sea Emperor to marry multiple side wives.

If Jack asked her to be his wife, Lyanna would not refuse, but as a condition, Jack must offer a piece of land that is suitable for farming and can feed everyone on Bear Island in exchange.
