Until Galin finished speaking in one breath, the room became quiet again.
Stupid plan.
Although Rorge had already heard the report a few days ago, Corleone still couldn't help but complain.
He didn't know if Guerin was helping Arianne to cover up, in order to clear the suspicion that the Dorne princess sent someone to kill her, but the probability of this was not high. After all, he had the blessing of [Surgery Iv4] in terms of interrogation.
But... it's really stupid to want to provoke a war between the two families by assassinating Oberyn and forcing Eron Wood to take Quentin as a hostage.
Unless Doran and Anders are political idiots like Robb Stark, who don't even want to investigate the truth and just start fighting.
For now, Dorne still has a quiet and peaceful atmosphere, and there are no signs of war.
It can be seen that Power Broker from both companies is not an idiot and no one will be fooled.
Except...
Glancing at the few Sand Snakes present, Corleone couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Well, someone will really be fooled.
"So..." After a long time, Oberyn's voice broke the silence. "You mean Arianne doesn't know about this at all, and it was all planned by yourselves?"
"Yes! Yes!"
Hearing this, Galin nodded desperately. "Those of us have been following Princess Arianne since childhood."
"We are not convinced!"
His voice became louder and louder, with a hint of madness and paranoia.
"Why? She is the eldest daughter of the Martell family. Why should Prince Daolang ask her to give up the position of heir?"
"We just want to help her eliminate the threat. We don't want her to know or embarrass her! We want to wait until the matter is settled before telling her!"
Galin's answer almost confirmed that this matter indeed had nothing to do with Arianne.
No, maybe it happened because of her, but she didn't know anything about it. Maybe she was still worried about her uncle's safety in Sunspear.
Oberyn still sat motionless on the edge of the bed.
His face was hidden in the shadows, and his expression could not be seen clearly. Only his dark eyes shone with a deep light under the firelight.
There was silence for a long time.
"Daemon Sand, my squire."
He paused, and finally there was a trace of extremely suppressed anger in his voice. "How did you convince him?"
Hearing this, Galin swallowed hard and said with difficulty, "Yes... it's Andrey Dart."
"Andrey?"
Oberyn frowned slightly, remembering the heavy-armored knight who joined forces with Damon to kill Ellaria on Silk Street: "Denzel Dart's younger brother?"
Galin lowered his head, not daring to look into Oberyn's eyes. He just stared at the floor in front of him and squeezed out word by word. "Andrey said that when Daemon Ser was fourteen years old, he had a relationship with Princess Arianne, but later because his surname was destined not to inherit the City of God's Grace, the princess rejected his proposal...
When he said this, he paused.
Because Oberyn's eyes suddenly became sharp, like two poisoned daggers, stabbing straight at him.
But Oberyn didn't speak, and Garin could only bite the bullet and continue, "Not many people know about that incident, but it is said that he and the princess have been estranged since then."
"But Andrey said, Damon Ser has never really let go."
"Andrey found Damon Ser and told him that the Eron Wood family wanted to use Quentin Prince to fight for inheritance rights, saying that as long as Martell and Eron Wood could turn against each other, the princess's status would be stable.

"And when it's done, the princess will... marry him."
Hearing this, Oberyn's eyes narrowed slightly.
"Based on this?" There was a hint of disbelief in his voice. "Based on an empty promise from Andrey·Dart, he believed it?"
Gai Lin said nothing and just nodded desperately.
Oberyn looked at him deeply, seemingly unable to accept this absurd reality.
"So...
"Ellaria's death was just because of a fucking ridiculous lie?"
Galin knelt on the ground, trembling all over, and did not dare to answer.
But silence itself is the answer.
Oberyn took a deep breath and remained silent.
No one knows what he is thinking.
Until the flames in the fireplace were a little lower, and the night outside the window became darker.
Oberyn finally looked up.
"Gailin."
His voice was hoarse, but every word was clear and powerful. "I want you to return to Sunspear in person."
"Go to my brother, Prince Doran, and tell him exactly what I said today."
"Then...
He paused and his voice suddenly turned cold. "In the name of Prince Dorne, Daemon Sand and Andrey Dart are wanted throughout the country!"
Hearing this, Gai Lin was surprised at first, and then nodded desperately with joy. "Yes! Yes! I will definitely do it!"
Oberyn ignored him, but withdrew his gaze and turned to his daughters.
His eyes stayed on Obaya's face for a moment, shook his head, then looked at Sarella's confused look, sighed again, and finally fell on Namei Lia.
Among all the Sand Snakes, she is recognized as the "most calm" one.
Name Lia is the most reassuring person in doing things, so Oberyn gave her the most important task.
"You go to Eron Wood City, Namei Lia."
"Find Anders·Eron Wood Earl, tell him everything that happened here, and then tell that guy that the Martell family does not want to be an enemy of Eron Wood."
As he said that, Oberon paused and his tone became serious. "Remember, you must be quick and stabilize the Eron Wood family before the news spreads!"
However, facing her father's order, Namei Lia just stood there motionless.
Oberyn frowned slightly, because this daughter would never refuse her orders without reason.
An ominous premonition arose in his heart.
"Nami Lia?"
Namei Lia still didn't move.
Her head was lowered so that her expression could not be seen clearly, but her hands hanging by her sides were trembling slightly.
"What's wrong with you?" Oberyn's voice was a little more wary.
The room suddenly became quiet, and everyone looked at Namei Lia. Even her Sand Snake sisters frowned in confusion.
After all, she has never been one to hesitate.
Under everyone's gaze, Namei Lia raised her head.
Those gentle eyes were flashing with extremely complex emotions at this moment, including guilt, determination, and a hint of imperceptible pride.
She opened her mouth to say something, but no sound came out.
"Speak." Oberyn's voice turned cold.
Namei Lia took a deep breath and finally said, "Father...
Her voice was very low, as if she was talking to herself. "When I left Sunspear... outside the Water Garden, I met Anders·Eron Wood Earl."
Hearing this, Oberyn's eyes narrowed. "Then what?"
After swallowing, Namei Lia raised her head, held her head high and met her father's gaze. There was no fear in her eyes, and she said loudly, "I will kill him!"
