Chapter 103 Denial
Samwell rolled his eyes and refused decisively:
"You are drunk, Your Royal Highness, I will send you back to rest."
"I'm sober!" Princess Arianne hugged Samwell's waist, raised her head, and looked at the man winkingly, "I'll give you a child! Even if my father still opposes our marriage , but as long as we have children, we have a foundation of trust. With your strength and my identity, as long as we unite, we may not be unable to fight for the dominion of Dorne!"
I have to admit that Samwell was really moved for a moment.
But soon, he realized the stupidity of this plan.
If he really wants to do this, not only the nobles of the Riverbend will no longer support him, but also the nobles of Dorne will not treat him, and the Martell family will even have a death feud with him.
This kind of stupid plan can only be thought up by a crazy woman like Arianne who is about to be blown up by her father and has just suffered a major setback.
Prince Doran used his children as pawns for his revenge plan, but never cared about their inner feelings.
From this point of view, although Arianne is noble, she is indeed quite pitiful.
But no matter how pitiful she is, Samwell cannot betray his position and interests to help her.
"Ahem."
Just as Samwell was thinking about how to get rid of Princess Arianne's entanglement, there was a sudden coughing sound in the courtyard.
Samwell turned his head and saw his father, Earl Landau, standing at the gate of the courtyard at some point...
Earl Randall's expression at this time was extremely complicated, and it was difficult to describe in words.
Samwell's mood at this time...is similar.
What is this!
Princess Arianne finally let go of Samwell after seeing Earl Randyll. At last she still knew some reserve.
The atmosphere in the courtyard was quite delicate for a while.
Samwell was about to say something, but Earl Landau had already turned around, as if he didn't want to disturb his son's good business.
"That..." Samwell didn't know what to say to explain to his father.
It's not what you think?
This is too vulgar.
Earl Landau, who was about to disappear from sight, turned his head and glanced at Samwell for the last time, as if saying—
Natalie and Arianne, which one are you after?
Waiting for the figure of Earl Randall to disappear completely, Samwell also took the opportunity to run away:
"Princess, I'm leaving first, and you should go to bed early, good night!"
When the word good night was said, Princess Arianne could no longer find Samwell.
She stomped her feet angrily, and cursed through gritted teeth:
"A man without guts!"
Princess Arianne stood alone in the courtyard, looking up at the starry night sky. They were so beautiful, like countless ships on the Green Blood River.
Gods, she couldn't help asking, are you really unwilling to give me a suitable husband?
In order to resist her father's arrangement, Princess Arianne also tried to find a husband by herself.
She seduced Renly Baratheon, but the proud Duke of Storm's End pretended not to see it;
She also fled privately and wanted to marry Vilas Tyrell of Highgarden, but she was still captured by her father;
Now, even a pioneer knight dared to refuse her courtship, which made Princess Arianne doubt her own charm.
No!
Princess Arianne shook her head to get rid of this ridiculous thought.
Does her beauty need to be questioned?
Every man who looks at her has naked longing in her eyes, and she has never lacked fanatical suitors, Dre, Denzel Dart, Damon Shad... the young male nobles of Dorne , almost no one does not surrender under her skirt.
But unfortunately, none of them could really make her fall in love, so they could only refuse.
Perhaps the gods wanted to punish her for being cruel, so that every man who could make her heart reject her equally cruelly.
Princess Arianne had a self-deprecating smile on her lips.
Princess Arianne looked at the shooting star with misty eyes, and murmured:
"Warrior Queen Nymeria, is this your heroic spirit? Your brilliance is so dazzling that it is no worse than any man."
Her face became resolute again:
"So will I."
…
The next morning, Samwell had just finished his breakfast when he met Gavin who had rushed over from Yingzui Island.
The young steward came to Starfall City to organize young and strong Dorne to go to Yingzui Island to build a castle, and at the same time brought a piece of news—
"Sir Garland and Miss Margery are coming?"
"Yes, sir. According to the letter, they estimate that they will arrive at Yingzui Island in three days."
Samwell nodded, indicating that he understood.
He was not too surprised by this. After all, the River Bend Allied Forces had won such a big victory, and the Tyrell family would definitely send someone to get involved.
"Okay, you will be in charge of Starfall City, I will go back to Yingzui Island to meet them." Samwell said immediately.
"Yes, master." Gavin was actually very puzzled as to why the master went back to greet him so early, but he didn't ask further.
In fact, Samwell just wanted to use this reason to temporarily avoid the Princess of Dorne, otherwise it would be a bit embarrassing to see her.
After explaining to Gavin, Samwell went to explain the situation to his father and uncle.
Finally, he had to say goodbye to the new owner—Natalie.
When the little girl was found, she was taking etiquette lessons under the guidance of an old nun.
"Master Caesar!" Natalie was excited when she saw Samwell, and was about to run up to say hello, but was stopped by the nun beside her.
"Miss, you have to pay attention to your manners!"
Natalie pouted aggrievedly, rubbing her fingers uneasily on the purple pleated skirt.
As a result, the nun gave him another lecture.
Samwell strode forward, and under the old nun's terrified and angry eyes, he rubbed the little girl's head vigorously.
Completely broke up the originally incomparably dignified lady bun on her head.
"Okay, let's stop here today." Sam Will said.
The nun dared not speak out, so she had to back down.
"Thank you, Sam!" Natalie lifted her skirt and jumped excitedly, returning to the original unrestrained savage state.
"Treat your servants with a bit of dignity." Samwell instructed the ignorant little girl, "Otherwise they won't know who is the master here."
"Oh." Natalie nodded obediently.
"How does it feel? Is it fun to be a lady in the castle?"
"It's okay. It's just a little tired, and..." Natalie lowered her voice, as if she was afraid of being heard, "And those old men are so scary."
"There's nothing to be afraid of, they are no nobler than you, so don't be afraid of them. Besides, I'm also a master, do you think I'm scary?"
Natalie shook her head.
"That's right." Samwell rubbed the little girl's hair again, it was soft and comfortable, and he was a little addicted to touching it. "Okay, I'm here to say goodbye to you this time."
"Where are you going?" Natalie suddenly became nervous.
"I want to go back to Yingzui Island."
"I'll go with you!" Natalie immediately grabbed Samwell's sleeve.
"There are so many distinguished guests in Starfall City, how can you, the master, leave? It's too impolite." Seeing the little girl's depression, Samwell comforted him, "Don't worry, I'll be back soon."
"Okay..." Natalie let go of Samwell reluctantly, "Then if you see your mother, you must greet my mother. It's best... it's best to bring her to Starfall City."
If your mother was willing to come back, she would have come back long ago.
However, Samwell decided to give the little girl some hope:
"Okay, if I see her, I will tell you that you are being bullied here, and ask her to help you."
"Okay!" Natalie said happily, "Tell her, I was bullied terribly!"
