"Didn't the Queen of Thorns tell me in her letter that your Tyrell family envoy will come with heavy gifts this time.
As the family envoy, don’t you know about this?
Or is it that you, the Tyrell family, did not come with sincerity?"
Seeing Margaery's stunned expression, Robb not only frowned slightly, but his ice crystal eyes were cold, and his tone was obviously very dissatisfied.
Xue Feng beside him seemed to sense something. The huge three-meter-high body took a step forward, and the huge shadow created by blocking the sunlight immediately enveloped Margaery.
Margaery subconsciously raised her head and glanced at Xue Feng's smart but cold huge eyes, and immediately trembled all over and woke up from her daze.
"No, no, of course our Tyrell family comes here with sincerity! Please forgive me for my gaffe, I still have the chaotic scene in my mind right now.
Your Majesty, please rest assured that the gift will definitely satisfy you, please allow me to lead the way!"
Margaery panicked and pulled up her skirt to salute and apologize to him, and then took the initiative to move two steps towards the delegation's motorcade not far away, as if she couldn't wait to get away from the huge monster beside her.
Hearing Margaery's words, Robb smiled for the first time, and he immediately said in a calm tone: "Well, let me see how wealthy the Riverbend Kingdom is!"
While speaking, Robb felt that today's show of force was enough, and he immediately sent a message to Bloodwind in his heart.
Bloodwind's huge body, which was full of pressure for humans, immediately squirmed and twisted, and then quickly shrank like a deflated balloon to the appearance of a cute and harmless little wolf cub.
Wow!
The use of [Control] Xue Feng immediately made all the outsiders in the school grounds burst into uproar.
To them, every move Robb made today was unbelievable, directly planting an image of an invincible man with unfathomable power in their hearts.
He and the giant wolf were both very scary, and they didn't seem to be pretending to care about me at all.
It’s not like he has the same hobbies as Renly I!
Margaery, who was walking in front of her with a somewhat wrinkled and stained court dress, recalled her first contact with Robb in her mind, and had some bad guesses in her mind.
How could she know that even though it was their first meeting, Robb already knew her in his previous life.
Moreover, after experiencing the baptism of the data explosion era in the previous life, there are countless beauties online, and there are even beautiful faces that look like elves.
Therefore, compared to Margaery's beautiful and sweet appearance, Robb, who was afraid of poverty in the north, was more interested in heavy gifts.
But if he knew that Margaery was comparing him to Renly I, I'm afraid he would immediately ravage the Rose of Highgarden.
It's not that Robb doesn't want to enjoy himself wantonly, but there are various dangers in Westeros now that urge him to become stronger. Strict self-discipline now is for a happy life in the future.
If he could sit on the Iron Throne today, enemies like Tywin, Daenerys, the Green Seer, and the Night King, both overt and covert, could all disappear.
With Robb's character and physique, he can put Margaery into nine or eighty-one positions tonight, making her unable to walk tomorrow!
Squeak!
The door of the mission's transport carriage was opened, and wooden boxes were neatly stacked in the inner layer of the carriage. Near the door were piles of leather bags the size of small schoolbags.
"Right hand, please open it!"
Following Margaery's polite instructions, her tall and strong right hand stepped forward and opened the leather bag and wooden box.
I saw gold bars as thick as a child's arm stacked neatly in the wooden box, and inside the bulging leather bags were gold coins.
Looking at the red-yellow appearance of those gold bars, Robb knew that these gold bars had a high gold content. And those gold coins were not the gold dragons commonly used today.
Robb stepped forward, grabbed two of them and put them in his hands for inspection. He saw the head of an unknown person on the front and a palm-shaped coat of arms on the reverse.
"Your Majesty, this is a golden hand coin, which was the currency of the Reach Kingdom before its war of conquest. Since our independence, the Reach Kingdom has recast a large number of golden dragons to restore the use of this ancient coin."
Seeing that Robb didn't seem to recognize the gold hand, Margaery explained it to him in her clear voice.
"Restoring the use of ancient coins is a thorn... Um, what does Mrs. Olenna mean?"
Looking at the gold bars and gold coins piled up in the carriage, Robb's mood suddenly became happy. His tone towards Margaery was not as harsh as before.
"No, this is the hand of the King of the Riverbend Kingdom, which is what my father meant!"
Although Robb's question was a bit strange, Margaery was also keenly aware that his tone had softened.
"Yeah, I got it!"
Since it's what the 'inflatable fish master' means, there's no problem.
Among the great achievements of the First Emperor in his previous life, the unification of currency was a measure of great significance. The Duke of Metz went against the grain and recast the common golden dragon in Westeros into gold hand coins.
Since the currency needs to be exchanged and used, this has added a lot of trouble to the transactions between the Riverbend Kingdom and other regions. The originally active and prosperous economy will gradually stagnate, which will especially cause a huge burden to the people at the bottom of the Riverbend Kingdom.
Although in the short term, it may be somewhat beneficial to the prestige of the Tyrell family, in the long term, it will definitely do more harm than good to the Riverbend Kingdom.
Seeing Robb staring at the gold hand coin in silence, Margaery, who was worried, bit her red and plump lower lip and continued: "Your Majesty, although the gold hand coin is only half the value of the golden dragon, the carriages behind it are all worth it.
It's our gift.
The value of these gold bars plus gold coins is almost equivalent to 600,000 gold dragons!"
Six hundred thousand gold dragons! Highgarden is really richer than Casterly Rock!
After hearing Margaery's words, Robb, who had never seen so much gold in the North, couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Indeed, in terms of accumulated wealth, Highgarden is currently much richer than Casterly Rock.
In his previous life, after Jaime captured Highgarden, he used only the wealth accumulated by Highgarden over the years to repay the six to seven million gold dragons that the Iron Throne owed to the Iron Treasury.
However, it can be seen from here that the Tyrell family is indeed inferior to the Lannister family.
Tywin used the wealth of the Lannister family to build military combat forces such as the heavy cavalry of the West, and also lent Robert a large amount of money to squander to obtain more political chips. It can be said that he used the value of his own wealth appropriately.
The Tyrell family piles their wealth in the Highgarden Treasure House. In addition to enjoying the accumulated sense of accomplishment, it is purely to accumulate trouble for themselves!
Because these illiquid wealth are not only worthless, but also arousing jealousy!
"Well, I have felt Lady Olenna's sincerity. Miss Margaery, the sun outside can easily burn your delicate skin. Let's go into the inner castle and continue the discussion in detail!"
After checking the other carriages one by one, Robb, with a kind smile on his face, took the initiative to invite Margaery.
Robb was very satisfied to be able to give one-tenth of the wealth accumulated by the Tyrell family in the past three hundred years as a gift, so his eyes now fell on the remaining nine-tenths.
After giving Clay a wink to let him take over the gift, Robb took Bloodwind and Margaery, who looked like wolf cubs, towards the inner castle.
As for the Duke of Metz, Garland, and Loras, they can only stay outside the inner castle. After all, they are still prisoners of the nobles.
"Your Majesty, first of all, I would like to ask you to release my father and two brothers, as well as all surviving soldiers of our side."
As soon as they entered the lord's study in the inner castle of Crake Hall and took a seat, Margaery couldn't help but speak and get straight to the point.
"Well, that's what it should be! Those 600,000 golden dragons are enough to redeem them all."
"No, Your Majesty. That gold is our gift to you. My father and their ransom will still be paid by our Tyrell family.
However, before that, I want to form an alliance with the Stark family on behalf of the Tyrell family!"
Hearing Robb's words, Margaery shook her head slightly and said something that surprised him.
Are these 600,000 gold dragons really given to me for free?
The Tyrell family... No, the Queen of Thorns is so courageous!
When it came to serious matters, Robb's smile suddenly faded. He pondered for a moment, then asked Margaery knowingly: "Miss Margaery, as far as I know, you have formed an alliance with the Lannister family.
Now, what do you mean by this?"
"Your Majesty, Tywin Lannister deceived us..."
After hearing this, Margery recounted a series of events that had happened in the High Court in one breath.
In order to show her honesty, she followed Olenna's wishes and told all the information that Tywin was preparing to continue to join forces with the Tyrell family to destroy Dorne, the Stormlands and other coalition forces.
"Tsk, tsk, Tywin is so ambitious and powerful! He counts everyone in one plan!
This time, I was used by him unknowingly!"
Hearing these secret information that spies could not detect, Robb, who roughly wanted to understand Tywin's intentions, couldn't help but let out a heartfelt sigh. Then, he continued with a half-smile,
"I speculate that he originally wanted to use me to hold you back and make you surrender to the Lannister family in order to resolve the crisis in Highgarden.
However, he didn't expect that I would capture tens of thousands of your troops with very few troops in a short period of time. This caused a flaw in his sophisticated layout.
Hey, this will be his fatal flaw!"
Seeing Robb's confident and confident look, Margaery's heart skipped a beat.
Just as men always prefer young and beautiful girls exclusively, women also prefer handsome, powerful, decisive and confident men.
"Your Majesty, although I just used the word alliance, as long as you can ensure that our Tyrell family can continue to rule the Riverbend Kingdom in the future, we are willing to swear allegiance to you!"
Although Margaery had some feelings for Robb, she would not lose her family's interests because of it. So she continued to follow Olenna's instructions and began to give in and show her kindness.
"Alliance? Allegiance? Haha, I don't care about these superficial forms!
If you want me to help your Tyrell family resolve the crisis in Highgarden, come up with real conditions that can impress me!"
Hearing Margaery's words, Robb couldn't help but chuckle and asked her to come up with more realistic conditions.
Hearing this, Margery felt as if she had already grasped the young king's character. A sweet and gentle smile appeared on her pretty face, and she answered: "Since His Majesty has such a cheerful personality, I will say so directly!
First, we, the Reach Kingdom, are willing to surrender to the Reach and be loyal to you!
Second, we will provide gold, food, weapons and equipment worth two million gold dragons as reward, and ask you to lead the northern army to relieve the crisis of the siege of Highgarden.
Third, in the subsequent war for the Iron Throne, the armies of the Reach are at your disposal at any time and will fight for you! Moreover, all expenses such as military rations, military pay, and pensions will be borne by us!
Fourth, we, the Tyrell family, want to marry with the Stark family and support the new law in the North that you proposed!"
Listening to the conditions proposed by Margaery, Robb couldn't help but nodded slightly with satisfaction.
It can be seen that the Tyrell family is serious this time. Their conditions of giving money and food to people are already more sincere than the loyalty of most nobles in Westeros.
"Well, I want to ask about the specific meaning of the fourth item!"
"Your Majesty, although I have been married twice. However, Renly I only likes my brother Loras, and Renly II is only an eight or nine-year-old child.
I...I am still a girl with a clean body!"
Upon hearing Robb's question, Margaery, who had a slightly sad look on her face, immediately explained anxiously.
"Well, Miss Margery, don't worry!
I also know something about what you said, and I believe you. After all, even if you lie about these things now, you can't hide them later!
However, that’s not what I’m asking. It’s about how supporting the new law in the North counts as your contribution? This is a new law that benefits both nobles and common people.”
Robb waved his hand to signal Margaery not to be so anxious, and then continued to elaborate on the question he just asked.
"Phew! So this is what your Majesty asked. Well, I heard that you have a new law to allocate land to common people and make them nobles.
This new law can be said to violate the interests of all nobles in Westeros, but we, the Tyrell family, are willing to work with you to implement it."
Earl Randyll had actually explained the problem of the new law before, but the cunning Olenna took this as her own condition.
However, thanks to Tywin's publicity, the nobles of the southern realms now view Robb's new method in this way. Even if Robb sends people to investigate, there will be no loopholes.
"Miss Margaery, it seems that you have misunderstood the new law I implemented in the North. In fact..."
After hearing this, Robb explained his new method in the north to Margaery.
After all, the land in the Western Territory alone is enough to confer knights promoted by the new law in the Northern Territory. For the nobles of other southern territories, it basically has no impact on their fundamental interests.
"Your Majesty, I probably understand the new law in the North. But I want to ask, what do you think when I become your queen?"
After listening to Robb's explanation, Margaery, who was not thinking about it at all, directly asked him the question she was most concerned about.
"Of course there is no problem. Miss Margaery is of noble birth and brings rich gifts from the Tyrell family. She is definitely the best candidate for the queen!"
Robb had no grudges about the twice-married but clean Rose of Highgarden becoming the queen. At this time, he valued the Tyrell family behind her more.
It's done! I'm a queen again!
Hearing Robb's words, a heartfelt smile appeared on Margaery's pretty face.
She stood up directly from her seat and walked to Robb's side. Then her palace dress slipped to the ground. Her pretty face was crimson and she knelt down to Robb and said: "With the witness of the gods in heaven, the Tyrell family today pays homage to the history of history."
The Tucker family swears allegiance!"
