Game of Thrones: I Created the Magic Web

Chapter 127 The Secret Engagement

"Laresa."

Joffrey searched her black eyes as if to glimpse some secret.

"Are you Salela Sand?"

The king's voice passed through the air with strong spirit and magic power, reaching everyone's ears.

Everyone couldn't help being stunned, their eyes misty.

The king nodded to himself again, "It's really you, Salela."

There was no need for a verbal response, Joffrey had already determined the answer from her trembling eyes and the poisonous needle hidden between her fingers.

An unexpected surprise.

Sarella Sand, an illegitimate daughter of Prince Oberyn Nameros Martell, the "Red Viper", has an unrestrained personality, is smart and eager to learn, loves history, and pursues unknowns and secrets.

Sarella and the other seven sisters all bear the surname of Dorn's illegitimate son "Shad", and are collectively known as "Sand Snake".

Although the eight Sand Snakes were called illegitimate daughters, Oberyn the "Red Viper" gave them the best protection and education, and allowed them to grow up with the offspring of the lords of Dorne in Sunspear City.

The Sand Snakes have thus become a group that cannot be ignored in Dorne's new generation.

Joffrey loved the surprise.

He had been thinking about Donne for a long time, and he was hesitating when and how to open the situation and get Donne's power into his pocket as soon as possible, when a Sand Snake came to his door by himself.

Sarah Shad.

He looked teasingly up and down the nervous and wary Sand Snake.

"Could it be that Prince Doran intends to respond to the call of the Iron Throne and go north to meet the rebels, so he entrusts you to send a message to show his sincerity?"

In theory, it is indeed possible.

"Red Viper" Oberyn's eldest brother is Prince Doran Nameros Martell of Dorne, lord of Sunspear City and lord to whom the princes of Dorne allege.

Judging from this relationship, Sarella is the niece of Prince Doran, and she is qualified to be a messenger or a proton.

But in fact, it is impossible for Dawn to voluntarily surrender now.

On the one hand, Dorne has a special geographical environment. The vast desert wilderness hinders the connection between Dorne and the other six countries. Its economy is relatively independent and it is difficult to be completely conquered by foreign troops.

Its culture and race are also influenced by the Rhoynar people, which makes the Dornish people have a weak sense of belonging to the Iron Throne.

Today, Dorne is the only country in the Seven Kingdoms that still retains the title of king. The successive rulers and children of the Martell family all enjoy the honorific title of "Prince" or "Princess".

Obviously, Dorne is more like a vassal state, or even a United Kingdom, than other territories loyal to the Iron Throne.

Because of this, Dawn has sufficient reasons and confidence to remain neutral, and there is no need to stand in line hastily.

On the other hand, House Martell in the War of the Usurper sided with House Targaryen and chose to revolt against House Baratheon.

Prince Lewyn Martell and countless Dornish soldiers died in battle, and Lannister brutally murdered Rhaegar's wife Elia Martell and her children in King's Landing.

Elia Martell is the only sister of Prince Doran.

Although Prime Minister Jon Arryn personally rushed to Dorne for peace negotiations afterwards, the two sides re-concluded the alliance.

But since then, Dorne has formed an indelible hatred with the Lannister family. At the same time, his support for the Iron Throne has become even colder, and his isolation has become more serious.

Joffrey also knew that House Martell had been secretly supporting the Targaryen Restoration.

"Red Viper" Oberyn personally went to the free trade city of Braavos, and under the witness of the Sea King of Braavos, he made a secret agreement with Sir William Darry, the protector of Viserys.

The two parties agreed that Viserys would marry Arianne Martell as his wife when he became an adult, and Dorne would raise troops to support Viserys in regaining the Iron Throne.

Also involved in this conspiracy were Varys, Governor of Pentos Illyrio Mopatis, Jon Connington in exile, and Mies Toyne, commander of the Golden Company.

But this plan has undoubtedly been completely shattered.

Joffrey stretched out his palm to the left, and Daenerys pressed her cheek meekly, then lowered herself into his arms following the movement of the palm.

"You didn't know, Dany, that Ser William Darry had taken Viserys to a betrothed."

Joffrey looked at Salela.

"What a perfect betrothed, Princess Arianne Martell, heir of Dorne."

Arianne! ?Sarella's eyes turned from Daenerys back to the king in an instant, and they happened to meet those mysterious and magical eyes, which made her tremble uncontrollably.

"It's a shame Viserys won't be needed," Joffrey said regretfully.

"Well, I'm really worried about Princess Arianne's future. Who else can she marry? Vilas Tyrell of Highgarden, or compete with Miss Margaery for Uncle Renly?"

"I recommend Uncle Renly. Who says a king can only have one queen?"

"By the way, Uncle Renly is not a king."

Joffrey said kindly, "But I can issue a special decree to allow Uncle Renly to marry two wives. I hope Princess Arianne will be satisfied."

Salera remained silent.

King Joffrey's words were so sharp and heavy that she didn't know how to respond.

Everything tonight was beyond her expectations.

It was all going well.

As the assistant bachelor Laresa, he followed Dr. Marwin and successfully arrived in King's Landing.

The next step is to quietly explore the secrets of King's Landing, and cleverly obtain the knowledge and information you want.

No one will notice her, just like in Xuecheng.

What a fun adventure.

But, how could his identity be seen through so easily?

Is this magic?
Will Renly and House Tyrell fail?
Father, they really supported Targaryen, and King Joffrey was eyeing Dorne?

Excitement, panic, and other unspeakable emotions rushed into her heart at the same time. Sareella raised her head and looked at the king, trying not to look away, showing her indomitableness.

But she has no escape.

Joffrey looked at the blond boy again, "Leo Tyrell, Highgarden sent you to sue for peace?"

"Lazy" Leo bowed respectfully.

"Your Majesty, even though I am only an assistant bachelor, I have already dedicated everything to knowledge and truth, and I have forgotten my surname. Everything about the Tyrell family is a thing of the past and has nothing to do with me."

Joffrey picked up a six-pointed star badge, "Actually, I made up my mind a long time ago."

"In order to restore peace as soon as possible, unite the princes of the seven countries, and save the people from the flames of war, I am willing to endure criticism, break the tradition, and marry Miss Margaret as the second queen."

Leo Tyrell looked at the king in shock.

Joffrey sighed, "It's just that there is a deep misunderstanding between the two sides, and the letter is not enough to show sincerity. You are a suitable messenger. It's a pity."

"It seems that the only way to quell the rebellion is with blood and fire."

Joffrey dropped the hexagram.

The badge made of brass kept spinning on the table, making crisp crashing sounds, which became louder and faster.

Before the six-pointed star stopped completely.

Leo of House Tyrell bowed solemnly.

"If you can stop the turmoil and save lives, self-interest is not worth mentioning, so what about being Leo Tyrell again."

"Your Majesty, Leo is willing to be a messenger."
