Willas Tyrell surrendered to Viserys and swore eternal loyalty to House Targaryen. He was willing to give up all the wealth of Highgarden and House Tyrell in exchange for the chance of the family's survival.
Viserys also accepted Willas Tyrell's allegiance and did not kill them all, giving them a chance to survive.
The next day.
The Dornish army suffered heavy losses and temporarily stayed in Star Shuttle City to rest, while the Dothraki army repaired for two days, and then continued to march towards Highgarden.
The High Court is a beautiful castle located on the banks of the Mander River in the River Bend. It is entirely built of white marble and is full of artistic atmosphere.
The carefully manicured plant maze, blooming flowers, courtyards, pools and artificial waterfalls are poetic and picturesque everywhere.
This beautiful castle stands on a hill, overlooking the endless plains of the Reach. The Mander River below is clear and flowing quietly. Standing on the balcony of the High Court Tower, you can see everything within a few leagues.
All beautiful manors and scattered fields.
However, the arrival of the Dothraki army destroyed this beautiful scenery that can only be found in poetry, and the atmosphere suddenly changed from a poetic and picturesque atmosphere to a fierce and powerful horse that can devour thousands of miles.
"Ho ho ho~"
The magnificent scene of thousands of horses galloping could be seen from a long distance away. The savage prairie cavalry came to the High Garden, and the chaotic hooves of the horses trampled the fields and the crops that had not yet grown.
But now the beautiful garden castle has lost its beauty even before it was ravaged by the Dothraki.
The recent war in Dorne that besieged Highgarden destroyed this elegance and beauty. The Garden Castle became a castle of thorns full of spikes, with traces of war everywhere, and it has not been properly repaired.
In a towering white tower, on a protruding rooftop, a short old woman with silver hair wearing a gauze scarf was holding her hand on the white marble railing, overlooking the endless prairie cavalry in the distance.
The war was like a robber, barbarically breaking into the old woman's field of vision, destroying the sea of pale yellow flowers that she usually loved to see, and also taking away her son and two grandsons.
Although the 'Queen of Thorns' is covered with spikes and can't help pricking you with a few words, Lady Olenna is not a person who likes war.
She prefers to solve problems the way the Tyrell family does things, or it can be said that she led the Tyrell family to become like this.
"Hoo"
At this moment, the huge black dragon appeared in the sky, emerged from the sea of clouds, let out a low and melodious roar, looked down at the white castle below with a pair of scarlet eyes, vibrated its wings and flew around the High Court, and this
The soldiers in the castle were shocked and did not dare to resist at all.
The old woman stared closely at the giant dragon in the sky, with a look of horror in her eyes. Her pale and thin fingers tightly grasped the white marble stone railing, and her nails were slightly white.
After all, although she has lived for more than sixty years and is heading towards her seventies, and is older than Lord Hoster Tully, whose head was chopped off half a year ago and held at the point of a spear, this is also the first time.
See the dragon.
Whoever sees this kind of monster that should live in a fairy tale for the first time can remain calm and indifferent?
Even though they had full imaginations about giant dragons before, when they saw them for the first time, they couldn't help but be immersed in their violent beauty, trembling with fear and unable to extricate themselves.
Then the old woman wearing a veil left the rooftop, tremblingly returned to her room, and closed the gorgeous golden hollow door.
Soon after.
Rumble
The heavy door of Highgarden opened from the inside, and all the soldiers loyal to the Tyrell family, with hesitation written on their faces, walked out of the city in two lines.
Wow
Then he put down his weapons and knelt down on both sides of the road.
Balerion just flew around Highgarden, and the beautiful capital of the Reach surrendered without a fight. Willas Tyrell didn't even need to persuade his grandmother.
Viserys rode a white horse and followed the army, while Willas Tyrell also rode a horse and followed him, looking at Highgarden with somewhat complicated eyes.
"I have heard of the name 'Queen of Thorns' a long time ago. It seems that Lady Olenna is indeed a smart person."
Viserys held the reins in his hand, then turned to Willas and spoke.
The expression on Vilas's face was a bit complicated, with a mixture of guilt, sadness and other emotions. He was a little embarrassed to face his grandmother, mother and sister.
Because he is the commander-in-chief of the Reach army, he should be responsible for the defeat of the war and the deaths and injuries of his family members.
But now, among the direct descendants of the majestic Rose Tyrell family of Highgarden... there is only one man, Willas, and the rest are all female relatives.
But then Willas regained his energy, cheered up, turned his head to look at Viserys and answered seriously.
"My grandmother was indeed a wise woman, Your Majesty."
"And Your Majesty is the orthodox member of the Iron Throne, and carries the will of God and public opinion. Naturally, my grandmother would not dare to block your steps."
"Otherwise Highgarden and Tyrell will be reduced to ashes and lost to history forever."
Although the Riverlands army suffered a disastrous defeat in Starshuttle City, the Tyrell family has a strong foundation and still has the strength to resist.
However, 'Queen of Thorns' Olenna did not lead the Tyrell family to fight to the death, but chose to surrender directly.
The Dothraki army took control of Highgarden and opened the Tyrell family's warehouse. The mountains of gold that were blinding made everyone stunned.
On the other hand, Viserys would naturally not do such vulgar things himself.
Stealing gold is indeed robbing gold. Others have done this, but he cannot do it or cannot do it openly.
Just like Kargo could execute Mace Tyrell at will, Garlan and Loras almost wiped out the Tyrell family.
And maybe Viserys can do the same, but he must think twice before doing so.
Otherwise, it is likely to have the opposite effect. After all, in such an era, honor and belief are still very deep-rooted things.
Holding the hilt of his sword, Viserys walked through the vibrant gardens, gorgeous courtyards and rippling pools.
The High Garden is worthy of being the center of the art of the Seven Kingdoms. It is full of artistic stone sculptures, fountains and marble columns. Grapes and roses decorate the walls and sculptures.
Then we climbed to the top of the tall revolving tower. A wide corridor led directly to a spacious and gorgeous bedroom. The floor was covered with thick Mill handmade carpets. The exquisite patterns were worth a lot of money.
Viserys opened the door, and inside the room was a silver-haired old woman wearing a gauze scarf who had been waiting for a long time. She also held a brown-haired girl on her hand.
"Fighting is indeed not our strong point, Your Majesty."
