Although Elard felt that Redd's words had some truth, this statement was contrary to his inherent concepts.
He couldn't accept this view and could only change the topic:
"Redd, the development of your territory is inseparable from the expansion of your relationship network. You need more friends and supporters, so that your territory can be more prosperous."
At this moment, Redd noticed a person coming from the opposite side.
He said to Elad leisurely, "As a dragon, I don't need to please anyone.
I just have to wait for people to please me, like this guy walking over right now."
Hearing this, Elad turned around and saw Prince of Dorne walking over with a wine glass.
Many thoughts flashed through his mind instantly, and he couldn't help but feel deeply moved.
He knew that although Redd's words were arrogant, they were not unreasonable.
Having a giant dragon, he indeed has unique capital and confidence.
But can this approach really last long? Elad's heart is full of questions and worries.
Redd was sitting in a corner of the hall, looking through the crowd, and noticed that the old man was slowly walking towards him.
The old man's face was resolute, and his eyes revealed an unyielding light, which perfectly complemented the House Martell's motto "Unyielding" that Redd knew.
His robe is embroidered with the Golden Spear of the Sun, which is the symbol of House Martell in Dorne, a family that can still maintain its independence and dignity under the rule of House Targaryen.
Redd's thoughts were wandering, recalling the relevant plot, and he remembered the history of this family.
In the absence of dragons, House Martell took advantage of the rocky, mountainous, and arid terrain of Dorne to fight four wars with House Targaryen, and was the only family to retain the title of prince.
Their motto "Perseverance" has been thoroughly implemented by them. It can be said that they are absolutely tough.
At this time, as soon as the old man came over, Elad, Redd's loyal friend and advisor, spoke one step ahead:
"Your Highness, you shouldn't have come here. Your actions will only arouse the king's suspicion."
Elad's words were full of worry. He knew that the contact between Redd and Prince of Dorne might cause unnecessary trouble.
However, the old man did not pay attention to Elad's persuasion. Instead, he showed a polite smile, introduced himself and said:
"I, the clan leader of House Martell, I don't know, could you come to the side and have a chat?"
His voice was calm and powerful, revealing an unquestionable majesty.
Redd smiled, with a hint of sarcasm in his smile, and said, "Since we have already made a decision, why are we still secretive? Let's just say it here."
Redd has a straightforward personality. He doesn't like to mince words. He wants to directly understand Prince of Dorne's intentions.
Prince of Dorne's reaction to Redd was also something he expected. After all, he was fully prepared before coming into contact with Redd.
He already understood Redd's bad character. After all, even House Targaryen suffered under him. He didn't care about this little grudge.
He invited directly. "After the war with the White Walkers is over, would you like to come and be my guest, Dorne."
Redd was speechless when he heard this.
He knew that the only person who could be plotted against him by a prince now was probably a dragon.
He still has this bit of self-awareness.
He said meaningfully, "I went, can I still come back?"
His words were full of distrust towards Prince of Dorne. He didn't want to be someone else's pawn, even in name only.
Prince of Dorne immediately promised, "I will prepare salt and bread and practice Guest Right."
His words were full of sincerity, but Redd had doubts about it. He knew very well that the so-called human nature could hardly stand the test in the face of power and interests.
After all, Red Wedding in the original plot is the biggest lesson. We know that in the face of the huge temptation of power, the so-called Guest Right will be trampled ruthlessly.
What's more, Redd doesn't want to bet on human nature and character, nor does he want to go to a place with a harsh environment like Dorne.
He said directly, "Just tell me your purpose. There is no need to be a guest."
When Prince of Dorne saw Redd's refusal, he simply said bluntly, "With three dragons, you should have a wider sky and a wider territory."
There was a hint of meaning in his words. Perhaps because there were so many people around him, he expressed it very implicitly.
But as long as you are not a fool, you can understand the meaning of the words, just say that we will join forces to rebel together. You have the dragon, I have the army, it is the absolute best combination.
Elad knew that Prince of Dorne's contact with Redd would be bad, but he didn't expect that a big one would come as soon as he came up. At this critical moment, this kind of thing must not be allowed to happen.
He slapped the wine glass in his hand on the table and gave a stern warning:
"Your Highness, pay attention to your words. The White Walkers are still watching outside the Wall, but you are saying such things here. Do you know what you are doing?"
Elad's words were full of anger and worry. He was worried that Redd would be used by Prince of Dorne.
Prince of Dorne did not answer Elad's question. He took a sip of red wine and then said:
"I have heard everything that happened here before, so it is the best choice for you to come to Dorne afterwards."
His words were full of confidence, and he believed that his plan was perfect. After speaking, he looked at Redd, waiting for his answer.
Redd heard the meaning of wooing, implying that they can cooperate with each other and provide guarantee for Redd. Both parties have a basis for cooperation.
But Redd feels that in his current situation, he doesn't need House Martell's help at all.
He has his own plans and goals and does not need to rely on anyone.
He said, "I appreciate the kindness, but I don't need it." His words were full of firmness and confidence, and he would not be easily swayed by others.
When Prince of Dorne heard this, a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes, but he soon regained his composure.
He knows that Redd is a strong person and will not change his decision easily.
He finished the red wine in his glass, stood up, and said, "In that case, I won't bother you."
After saying that, he turned and left, leaving Redd and Elad in the hall.
Redd looked at Prince of Dorne's leaving figure and felt no pity in his heart.
The world is full of competition for power and interests, and everyone is striving for their own goals.
As long as you stick to your beliefs, you will be able to find your own path.
He looked at Elad, a cold look flashed in his eyes.
What a blessing it is to have a loyal friend and advisor in this world.
