The moment Lady Olenna saw Lynesse·Redwyne being killed, he straightened out his clues and guessed Tywin's intention.
She knew she was in danger, so she stood up and called for help.
Unfortunately, it was already too late. A group of mysterious men took advantage of the chaos and touched her behind. They quickly eliminated the four guards of Old Rose and stabbed Old Rose randomly.
Before Old Rose died, she pushed away Mace·Tyrell beside her and shouted, "Go away, leave you..."
Her shouting stopped suddenly, and the killer slit her throat and said coldly, "The North will never be forgotten!"
Old Rose's two grandchildren were not around. Garlan·Tyrell was in the military camp outside the city. Loras secretly took away Sansa·Stark.
She only has her stupid son, Mace·Tyrell.
Mace·Tyrell was frightened and hurriedly ran away, calling out to Kingsguard and Gold Cloaks who were present.
Several Kingsguard were guarding Mace·Tyrell. They seemed to have received some kind of order in advance and uncharacteristically killed all the killers, leaving no one alive for interrogation.
There is no evidence of death, and the death of Old Rose also fell on House Stark.
A very old Mace·Tyrell hugged Old Rose's body and cried like a child. In the eyes of outsiders, Old Rose had always looked down on his son and was unwilling to hand over the rule of the Reach to Mace·Tyrell.
Mace·Tyrell For more than ten years, I have had the name of a duke, but not the reality of a duke.
But he knew that he was too stupid and easy to be plotted by others. Old Rose wanted to protect him, so he took over the power. What mother doesn't love her child? Old Rose is no exception. She just wants Mace·Tyrell to live her life smoothly.
Mace·Tyrell cried sadly, "Stark! I must kill you all!"
The Reach nobles present did not know who stabbed the old rose. At this time, they heard the roar of Mace·Tyrell and knew the origin of the killer.
Is it really Stark? That's not important. The nobles of the Reach only saw that the old rose was dead, and the mountain that was pressing on them was gone.
It has nothing to do with them whether the killer is Stark or Lannister.
At this time, the real instigator, Tywin Hand of the King, was beside the body of his grandson, with grief on his face. But his eyes were very cold, so cold that Jaime felt chills all over his body.
Outside King's Landing, the military camp of the Southern Border Alliance Army.
Loras in disguise had just sent Sansa to Garlan's camp when he learned of the death of Old Rose.
The two brothers stared at each other blankly, unable to return to their senses for a long time.
They all knew about Margaery and knew that House Tyrell and House Stark were about to get married. How could House Stark send someone to assassinate his grandmother?
Anyone with any brain can figure out that there is almost no friction between Stark and Tyrell. Why did Stark send someone to assassinate Tyrell?
The enemy that the wolves want to kill must be a lion, not a rose.
"It must be Tywin!"
The handsome Loras turned ferocious in appearance. He smashed Garlan's desk with his fist and roared angrily.
Garlan dismissed the other people in the tent, but when Sansa was about to leave, he stopped her, "Miss Sansa, you can stay."
Sansa felt very sad when he learned that the kind old man who had been helping him died.
She sat aside silently and did not disturb the discussion between the two brothers.
Loras clenched the hilt of the sword at his waist, his eyes full of killing intent, "Tywin's son is Kingslayer, I don't suggest that I be the next Kingslayer!"
Garlan held down Loras's sword and said, "My father is still in King's Landing, you can't act rashly. I need you to return to King's Landing to protect your father. It's best to let him know the truth."
Because everyone deliberately concealed it, Meera·Tyrell did not know about House Tyrell and the North. He only knew that King's Landing's daughter was a fake, and the real Margaery had been missing for a long time...
Loras believes that it is not easy for Meera·Tyrell to accept the North.
"Garlan, my father has an old grudge with Luke·Stark. Now it is widely rumored that House Stark murdered my grandmother and sister. No matter how we explain, it is impossible to convince my father."
Without the shackles of the old rose, Meera·Tyrell successfully became Lord of Highgarden with real value and real power. If he becomes stubborn, his three sons cannot persuade him.
Garlan thought for a while and said, "Then you stay with your father and spurn the North with him. We need your information, Loras."
Loras understood that the second brother wanted him to lurk beside his father as an undercover agent. "Garlan, if the current situation continues, my father will definitely join forces with Lannister and send troops the North."
Garlan waved his finger, "No, father has no soldiers to use."
He sat back in his seat and said, "Loras, the Reach claims to have a hundred thousand troops, and the number is correct, but the vassals who are truly loyal to House Tyrell are all under my account now, and the total number of troops is only more than 20,000."
Garlan was playing with a letter, "Forty thousand troops are staying in dozens of castles in the Reach. Strictly speaking, they cannot be counted as the number of troops heading north this time. The remaining the Reach army is the 40,000 people arrayed in Bitterbridge. The nobles who commanded the 40,000 army are all thorns. When my grandmother was still alive, I could still control them. Now that my grandmother has passed away, They will not obey their father's orders."
He threw the letter to Loras, "I will lead an army of 20,000 people tomorrow and set off back to Highgarden. Ironborn entered the country. They captured Shield Islands and are approaching Highgarden. We must drive them out of the Reach."
Garlan concealed the hatred in his heart and pretended to be indifferent and said, "Grandma's body will also return to Highgarden with me."
Loras looked through the letter and learned that the current situation is urgent, "King's Landing has me, so you can handle Ironborn's problem with peace of mind."
Garlan walked up to Loras and patted his shoulder solemnly, "Loras, be careful in everything. Go back to the city now. As Kingsguard, if you disappear for too long, it will easily arouse the suspicion of others."
"Hmm."
Loras put on his hood, turned around and left the military tent.
Garlan looked at Sansa·Stark and asked with a complicated expression, "Miss Sansa, although my grandmother was killed by Tywin, she also died because of you. Do you... have anything to say?"
Sansa feels very guilty for the death of Old Rose. "Sir Garlan, please send someone to send me back to the North. I will definitely convince King in the North to face Lannister with you."
Garlan suppressed his anger, "Miss Sansa, my sister is at the North, she will be the North's queen, we don't need you to reply to the North to convince King in the North. My grandmother's arrangement for you during her lifetime was that I would take you to Highgarden to marry my brother Willas·Tyrell, further strengthening the covenant between the North and Tyrell."
He didn't want to force a woman, "You have the right to choose, do you want to go back to the North, or come with me to Highgarden?"
Sansa has gone through so many hardships and is no longer the silly sweet girl she was before. She understood the meaning of Garlan's words, "If I return to the North, the alliance between you House Tyrell and the North will not count, right?"
