Chapter 298: Werther enters thousands of households
People with high-level connections can get honors with a little merit, and Werther cannot ignore the efforts of soldiers and craftsmen at the grassroots level.
Twenty people in the Tyrosh navy were awarded knighthoods, and five craftsmen were knighted.
Ashara led the city defense troops to participate in the battle of Dorne, and many of them were knighted by Nymeria on the battlefield. This time Werther also asked them to line up and stand in the hall to show their faces.
After the canonization ceremony, there was a grand celebration banquet. The nobles left the hall first so that the servants could arrange the tables and chairs.
People gathered in twos and threes in the corridors, gardens and squares of the castle. Outside the castle gate, trailers carrying large wine barrels or exquisite wine bottles were continuously delivered to the castle. This was wine sponsored by businessmen and inspected by the castle guards.
Once you pass the test, you can put it on the banquet.
Werther was also standing at the gate, chatting with the guard captain Baron, secretly using magic to check all the drinks on the trailer. There were too many nobles attending the banquet, and it was impossible to tell who had a personal enmity with whom. If someone took the opportunity to poison, Werther, as the host, would also
It will give you a bad reputation.
"You refused to spend your own money to buy wine for a banquet! Didn't anyone say you were stingy? Duke Werther."
Who is so impatient that they dare to talk to Werther like this? Balon turned his head when he heard the voice and saw that Jorah Mormont had walked in front of him, but he did not open his mouth.
"Look down!"
The voice came from Jorah's leg, and Balon lowered his head: "It turns out to be Sir Tyrion!"
Then he turned around and saluted: "Duke Werther, I'm going to count the drinks."
Werther nodded, and after Balon said hello to Jorah and Tyrion, he followed the convoy transporting drinks into the side entrance of the castle.
As the captain of the personal guard who follows Werther all day long, you don't need to have superb martial arts or magic, but you need to know who has a good relationship with Werther and to what extent. Tyrion is someone who can talk nonsense with Werther. p>
"I want to entertain nobles from all over the country, and the businessmen want to show them the wine. We each have what we need, and it's a win-win situation." Witte smiled at the two of them: "Why haven't I seen you two in the more than a week since I came back?
?"
Jorah replied seriously: "We are inspecting Tyrosh to see if there are any good products."
"Don't listen to his nonsense. Tyrosh's entertainment industry is so developed and the women are so beautiful that Jorah and I spend the night in a different tavern every day!" Tyrion gestured with his hands as he spoke.
Jorah remained silent.
"We have all kinds of wine today, so open it up and drink!" Seeing Jorah who looked embarrassed, Werther also changed the subject.
"It just so happens that I have something to ask you about. I have a plan on how to manage Myr City. Leave your time to me during the day tomorrow." Tyrion seemed confident.
"Okay, come to my study after lunch tomorrow." He bought the city of Myr and asked the nobles to submit a management plan. The whole of Tyrosh knew about this matter. Witte promised but was murmuring in his heart. No matter how good the plan was,
Tyrion's identity is destined not to give him the position of governor.
The protagonists of tonight's banquet are the newly promoted nobles. They have just entered this class and need to take this opportunity to make friends with all parties. Werther kept a low profile throughout the audience but could not escape the drinking, and slept until noon the next day.
In the study, Werther and Tyrion sat opposite each other on both sides of a small desk, with a wooden box placed at Tyrion's feet.
Werther is carefully looking at the documents he provided. There are many secret things that Tyrion does not know. There are some shortcomings in the management plan he gave. As long as Werther can make up for these, the overall feasibility of the plan will be great.
After reading it, Werther closed the book. He did not return it to him immediately. Instead, he pressed it under his palm and asked some digressions: "Tyrion, I was dealing with the Dragon Cult in Volantis. Why did the civil war in Dorne suddenly happen?"
Is it over? Our Tyroshi officials predict it will last at least another two months."
After Tyrion drank a glass of lemonade, he poured himself another glass, "Uh!" and burped. He looked around. The doors to the study were closed, and there were many strange magic devices. There were only two people: himself and Werther.
Person: "How is the sound insulation here?"
Werther stood up and went to the bookshelf, pulled a push rod and then sat back: "Now I can't even hear the roar of Oda Weiying! Tell me."
"Magic is amazing!" Tyrion sat upright: "It is said that it is a civil war in Dorne. According to my observation, it is actually multiple factions pushing both sides to fight, and both sides can't stop even if they want to!"
"As long as you know this, no one will admit it!" Werther said with a smile.
"Haha, of course you have to go home and count the money after you have gained enough benefits!" Tyrion stopped by and did not name any of the forces he guessed.
Werther wanted to know what the war he said was like, and pretended to be completely ignorant and asked: "Nymeria became the female prince of Dorne, how did Lord Yronwood die? What happened in the meantime?
”
Tyrion: "Your wife was forced into the position of prince by the nobles of Dorne. There were dragons flying overhead, and there were countless moles in the opponent's army. Every war went smoothly.
Lenwood hit Sunspear and hid."
"I heard about this before I went to sea, but what happens next?" Werther also poured a glass of water to drink.
"Yronwood's army was defeated all the way, and the nobles who followed him fled to death or were captured by us. When he arrived at Sunspear, his troops and supplies were no longer able to take the initiative, so he made up his mind to defend Sunspear. We
After being besieged for more than half a month, we still couldn't get in."
Tyrion recalled that there were many doubts about what happened at that time: "When the siege was approaching a month, do you know what happened? Lord Yronwood was thrown from the tower by his men and fell to his death!"
Werther: "Mutiny due to lack of food?"
"How is it possible? When we entered the city, the food in the warehouse could last for at least a month." Tyrion leaned forward: "Yronwood fell to his death, and his nobles were immediately divided into resistance faction and surrender faction.
The two sides started fighting in Sunspear City. During the conflict, Yronwood's pregnant daughter was also killed, and Doran's line was completely extinct. At this time, Oberon and Doran, who had been unconscious, woke up! What a coincidence!
”
Tyrion stared into Werther's eyes, Werther's face was expressionless and his eyes were firm: "Counting the time, I happened to kill Benero, the supreme priest of the R'hllor sect in Volantis at that time. Maybe he released the curse!
The curse will be automatically lifted when he dies."
"Hahaha." After saying this, Tyrion and Werther laughed together.
"Under the call of the two princes, the war could no longer continue, and only a few nobles who still wanted to resist were killed. Nymeria led the army into the city to celebrate the victory."
=There are good things and bad things. Tyrion continued: "When we captured the City of God's Grace before, Roger Allion said some words before committing suicide. He also worked with Lord Yronwood to bring Doran and Ober back then.
Lun's letter wanting to overthrow the Baratheon dynasty was sent across the country."
"Tylosi also received a letter. I read it when I came back." Werther didn't care about what he had known for a long time, but the officials below were all surprised.
Then another thing happened. Nymeria, Doran and Oberon were locked in the Sunspear study for an afternoon. Many people who passed by heard the quarrel inside. The whole world knew the final result.
The two princes voluntarily abdicated due to physical reasons, and Nymeria became the female princess of Dorne."
"The process was quite tortuous!" Although there were some changes to the plan, Werther was still very satisfied with the result.
"The twists and turns are so bizarre! Dorne's inheritance has changed from Doran's line to Oberon's line! In the end, Dorne will fall into the hands of your son!" Tyrion knew Werther's character, and talked to Werter in private about everything.
No problem, I revealed Werther’s purpose and gave me a thumbs up with my right hand.
This time Werther neither denied nor admitted it. If the truth is so, it would be hypocritical to be pretentious: "Tyrion, with your wisdom, does Lord Tywin really only ask you to clean the castle?"
"Don't mention him, it would be great if my surname was not Lannister! Do you have any wine?" Tyrion's mood suddenly worsened.
Werther knew that his feelings for his father were very complicated. Tyrion immediately changed the subject with a probing question. Werther no longer dwelled on it and pointed to the wine cabinet beside him: "The only pear wine in the study is the pear wine produced in Tyrosh.
Very strong."
"As long as it's wine!" Tyrion poured the water from the cup into the flowerpot and started to drink wine himself.
Seeing Tyrion finish a glass of wine, Werther took the initiative to pour it for him, and then opened the management plan he gave him again.
"The situation in Dorne has been decided. No force can change it now. From now on, everyone can just be a talking point. Let's continue talking about Myr. I have read your plan. As long as I make some modifications according to the situation, it will be fine.
Execution. But as you said, it would be great if your last name was not Lannister!"
"Damn Lannister!" Tyrion laughed at himself: "Aside from fame and glory, I also like golden dragons. How about you buy my plan at a discount?"
Witte thought for a while: "No. I believe you also asked about how chaotic the situation in Mill City and surrounding areas is now when making the plan. The plan is dead, but the people are alive! No matter how good the plan is, it is difficult to formulate it
If the people who make the plan don't make timely adjustments according to changes, the entire plan will be disrupted. If you don't go to Mil, there will be no need to implement your plan."
"If my surname was not Lannister, would you really give me the position of Governor of Myr?" Tyrion took another sip of wine.
At this time, Werther also poured himself a glass of wine, and the two of them clinked their glasses and took a long sip. The large water glass contained too much weight to drink it all in one gulp.
"The order was issued by me in the name of the Governor of Tyrosh. There are not many official documents, but if you look for them, you can find dozens of them. Tyrosh's trading system is based on integrity. If I, the Duke, make
If we can’t keep our promise, what will happen to Tyrosh?”
"Honesty!" The pear wine was very strong, and the two drank from large water glasses. Tyrion got a little drunk.
"Tyrion!" Veidt put the wine glass to his mouth and put it on the table: "The feud between the Baratheon and Lannister families cannot be resolved for the time being. I personally get along with you Tyrion.
,If it weren’t for our family, we might have become very good friends!”
"Good friend!" Tyrion also felt that every time he chatted with Werther, he felt very close to each other. "I almost forgot, I brought you a gift."
Tyrion brought the wooden box at his feet to the table. It seemed to be a bit heavy.
"This is a good thing! Now every tavern in Tyrosh has this. It is also very popular in taverns in the Riverbend and Stormlands. It is also found in many women's homes." The box is the packaging of the object, and it should be brand new from the looks of it.
, Tyrion said as he opened it.
"Oh, is there anything popular in Tyrosh that I, the Duke of Tyrosh, don't know about?" Witte was also curious.
Inside the box was a pure white stone sculpture, bang! Tyrion, who was flushed with alcohol, pushed aside the sawdust in the box, placed the sculpture in the middle of the table, pointed at the statue and looked up at Werther:
"Look! You are naked!"
"This!" Werther was a little dizzy after drinking, and he leaned his head closer to look at the stone carvings carefully.
The statue is about thirty centimeters high, and about five centimeters with a square base. A muscular and naked man stands proudly with his hands naturally drooped and his head slightly raised, fully displaying the muscles on his body and showing the majesty of the man.
The exquisite carvings and pure white stone make every muscle line vivid. This must be the work of an art master.
Then look at the head of the statue. It has slightly long short hair, resolute eyes, and a rebellious handsome face. It looks a bit like myself in the mirror.
Werther pointed to his chest with both hands and asked Tyrion: "Is this me?"
"It's you! Hahaha, all the carving craftsmen and sellers have said that it's you!" Tyrion laughed and said, "I didn't expect that your mind would be so open. You have now become countless women.
mutual lover."

Werther took the statue in his hand and sobered up: "Fuck, when did I become so open-minded? I never allowed my statue to be made. Although the lower body was made larger and more realistic, I didn't show it on any occasion.
Cross your lower body."
Tyrion took a big sip of wine: "Haha, take off your clothes and compare it with the statue to see if it's you! I've asked Nymeria, and she also said that the statue is perfectly made!" p>
Werther played with the statue: "My god, the Duke of Tyrosh, the Guardian of the Strait, and the Lord of the Dragons, will I be allowed to be looked at by others casually from now on? Who dares to tease me like this without his life! From Westeros.
The law is no joke!"
Tyrion: "You want to ban it? We can only arrest and kill all the carvers and merchants in Tyrosh, the River Bend and the Stormlands. And I believe you also know that this statue is not fatal."
Things, the more you ban them, the more people want to see what’s going on.”
Werther thought about it and said, "Then what do you think I should do? I'm just going to be grabbed by someone's hand and caressed at will?"
"Let me give you an idea! As far as I know, your statue has been spread everywhere, and it is impossible to ban it. However, among all the sculptures on sale, only the one made in Tyrosh is the most like you, and the price is the highest. You
You can collect taxes!" Tyrion stopped talking at this point, and then he laughed out loud when he thought of something.
"Collect it! Charge it according to the highest tax rate for luxury goods!" Witte said cruelly: "But where did this thing spread from?"
"I heard from the boss who sold it to me that it first came from the Reach and then spread." Tyrion shrugged. The boss was probably talking nonsense.
After leaving the matter of the statue to Garland and the others to collect taxes, Veidt then took out a contract prepared in advance and handed it to Tyrion: "This is a document about the city of Myr. Just look at it and sign it."<
/p>
"Myr? Do you want to buy my plan?" The drunken Tyrion held the document up to his face and couldn't see clearly.
"This document has been filed with the king. Myr will be regarded as the official land of the Kingdom of Westeros from now on. The king and the ministers of the royal council attach great importance to it, so there is a lot of text. Come, your signature is on the last page.
." Werther kindly helped Tyrion turn the document to the last page and handed him a pen.
As soon as Tyrion finished signing, he fell asleep on the table. Werther held one of his copies under his arm and returned to the bedroom after receiving several other copies.
As soon as I walked to the living room outside the bedroom suite, I saw Tyene and Balon commanding a dozen personal guards to move things.
"Be careful not to touch the wall!" Baron ran to the wall, put his face against the wall and stretched out his hand to direct: "Move out, move out a little more."
"What is this? It looks like another statue?" Werther saw a big red cloth covering it.
"Yes!" Tyene took Witte's arm and rested her head on Witte's shoulder, waiting for Baron and the others to finish moving. "Sir Baron, lift up the red cloth and give Witte a surprise!"
"Look at me!" Balon shook his arm twice, picked up a corner of the red cloth and swung it hard. The whole red cloth was instantly thrown up high without sticking to any part of the statue.
A pure white one-to-one size stone Werther and Werther looked at each other.
Tyrion didn't wake up until the afternoon. His plan was taken away by Werther. Under his arm was another document, which Werther should have left for him.
After stretching his muscles, Tyrion opened the document, and the more he looked at it, the more surprised he became.
Veidt hired Tyrion as a consultant in the city of Myr to assist the Tyrosh army in suppressing the rebellion in the city of Myr. He was under the management of the Governor of Myr. If Myr did not appoint a governor, he would be directly managed by the Duke of Tyrosh. etc.
After the rebellion subsides, the advisory status will be automatically terminated, and Veidt will pay Tyrion a reward of 50,000 gold dragons.
Looking at the pile of names of the Council of Ministers at the end of the document, as well as his own name and fingerprints, Tyrion knew he couldn't run away. He looked around, put the most valuable bottles of wine in the wine cabinet under his clothes, and left the study.
