Chapter 67 Princess

Dorne, located at the southernmost tip of the continent of Westeros, is probably the only region among the Seven Kingdoms that is tired of this long summer.

The continuous high temperature has aggravated the drought and barrenness in Dorne. Fresh water on land is as valuable as gold here, and the wells that can produce water are guarded by the lords with heavy soldiers.

Located in the easternmost city of Dorne, Sunspear City, blown by the salty sea breeze and nourished by the Greenblood River, it is a rare city that is not plagued by drought.

This is also the residence of the ruler of Dorne, the Martell family.

Damon Sand passed through the triple gate with heavy handles, bypassed the curved wall and reached the Old Palace, which was shaped like a sailing ship.

"I have something to see Her Royal Highness the Princess."

"Please follow me." The guard obviously knew the illegitimate son from God's Grace City, nodded at Daemon, turned around and began to lead the way.

Although Dorne has surrendered to the Iron Throne, unlike the dukes of the other six countries, the Martell family still calls themselves "Prince" and "Princess" in accordance with the tradition of the Rhoyna.

The princess Daemon talked about is naturally the eldest daughter of the current Prince of Dorne

Arianne Martell.

As the guards pushed open the dark brown door, Damon smelled a strong fragrance of Miyi flowers.

He knew that this was Princess Arianne's favorite flavor.

Stepping into the spacious palace, Damon saw the Miaoman figure sitting on the Myr carpet at a glance.

"Your Royal Highness!" Daemon suppressed his inner desire and restlessness, and stepped forward to salute.

Arianne was looking at an old yellowed book, with a glass of red wine and a cyvasse chessboard in hand.

Hearing the sound, she put down the book in her hand and stretched out on the carpet, looking like a noble and elegant cat.

She has olive skin, **** eyes, and black curly hair. She wears a thin lavender silk dress, covering her beautiful and plump body, but it can't hide anything.

Her facial features are not perfect, but she has a strange magic power, any man can no longer take his eyes away just by taking a look.

"Damon? Why are you here?"

Arianne's voice was lazy and magnetic, as if it could penetrate the listener's ears and scratch his heart.

"I have received important news, so I came to tell you immediately!" Daemon looked at the princess in front of him obsessively.

"What news?" Arianne asked casually, propping her chin with one hand.

"Edrick Dane and Alilia Dane were attacked by a wild boar while they were out hunting and unfortunately died!"

"Edric Dayne, Alilia..." Arianne didn't realize it at first, but soon she remembered the meaning of these two names

These are the last two heirs of the main branch of the Dane family in Starfall City!

Bang Dang.

Arianne stood up abruptly from the carpet, and accidentally knocked down the wine glass beside her. The dark red wine soaked the expensive carpet, but she didn't care about it at all, but stared closely at Damon's eyes, asked:

"you sure?"

"Sure!" Damon nodded fiercely, "It was my cousin who sent the news from Black Harbor City, he would not joke about such things. And he also said in the letter that although there is no evidence, but He still suspects that this is not a hunting accident, but a well-planned assassination!"

"Assassination, of course!" Arianne's eyes widened. "Otherwise, it would be such a coincidence that the main branch of the Dane family just died out!"

She couldn't help wandering back and forth on the carpet, thinking, the bell tied around her ankle made a crisp sound.

Stirred Dimon's heart even more restless.

He couldn't help lowering his voice and said:

"Your Highness, I suspect that this matter may have been done by Urik Shad!"

"Urik Shad? Are you talking about the acting city lord of Starfall City?"

"Yes."

"He has the guts and ability?" Arianne didn't seem to agree with this, "And even if Edric and Alilia died, it wouldn't be his turn to inherit Starfall City as an illegitimate son. The Dane family The offshoots are not extinct."

"But what if Urik can make great contributions and make everyone think that he is qualified to be named Dane? You know, he is the illegitimate son of the old Earl Davos. Once his identity is legalized, Starfall City will be his It's gone."

"What great achievement?" Arianne curled her lips, seemingly disdainful, "Could it be that he can still enter the river bend..."

Before she finished speaking, Arianne remembered something she had heard recently, and suddenly turned her head:

"Do you think he will attack Yingzui Island?"

"That's right!" Damon said with confidence, "I can guarantee in the name of Lieyang, Longhalberd, and Seven Gods that Urik will definitely mobilize the soldiers and horses from Starfall City to attack Yingzui Island!"

Arianne looked at the flames flickering in the eyes of the illegitimate son of God's Grace City in front of him, and nodded secretly.

Indeed, being the same as "Shad", Daemon must feel the same for Urik's situation. If the head of the Arion family dies at this time, Damon, the illegitimate son, will definitely be willing to risk everything in order to inherit the city of grace.

Although the credit for capturing Yingzui Island is not great, it is worth Uric's risk.

Moreover, she also heard that a silver mine was dug out in Yingzui Island. From this point of view, it is indeed a treasure land of geomantic omen. If it can be successfully captured, maybe her father will really reward Urik for his achievements. And asked the king for a decree to legalize his illegitimate child status.

"I don't think Urik dares to send someone to assassinate Edric and Alylia. Once word of this kind of thing gets out, he will be doomed. However, you are right about the other point. Urik will definitely Go attack Yingzui Island."

"That's right! Your Royal Highness!" Damon asked excitedly, "Should we participate in this battle?"

The reason why he brought this news at the first time was not only because he wanted to meet the princess who had been dreaming of him, but also because he knew very well that Princess Arianne was a person who was unwilling to be lonely.

She will not miss this war.

And he didn't want to continue to bear the surname of his illegitimate son for a long time.

"Of course." Arianne nodded as expected.

"Then let's ask His Royal Highness for instructions! Ask him to send an army to accompany us to Starfall City."

Arianne shook her head slowly, saying:

"No, don't tell father yet. Let's go to Starfall City by ourselves. It's just an eagle mouth island, and the soldiers and horses of Starfall City are enough to capture it."

Damon hesitated for a moment, but nodded and said: "Yes, Your Highness."

Arianne turned and walked out of the hall. What she didn't tell Damon was that she hadn't seen her father for a long time.

The ruler of Dorne always likes to stay in the water garden, and no one can easily see him except his younger brother, Prince Oberon.

Yes, not even his own daughter, Princess Arianne.

You must know that the Martell family follows the tradition of the Rhoynar people. Female heirs have the same inheritance rights as male heirs. Therefore, as the eldest daughter of the prince, Princess Arianne is the future ruler of Dorne.

However, Arianne accidentally discovered a letter from his father to his younger brother Quentin, promising that he would become the ruler of Dorne.

This made Arianne think that her father was going to deprive her of her inheritance.

For this reason, she has cried, despaired, and resented, but as the Martell family saying "Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken" (Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken) said, she still chose to be strong after all.

She believes she can change her father's mind.

She just needs a chance to prove herself.

Prove that you have the ability to rule Dorne just like Nymeria, the warrior queen of Rhoynar.
