Red keep
Olenna pov
It's been a few days after the coronation but she finally got a meeting with the new king, his grace is very hard to meet if you are not a stark or belong to the royal family
But she knows the king is not deliberately avoiding her, it the same with every lord,now finally she got a private audience with the king
When she came in the king is drinking tea with his grandmother, from what she has seen the king has no vices that plague most men, he is not much of a drinker only drinking a glass atmost of Dracarys red wine, and she has not yet heard of him in bed with anyone
Most boys this age are not mature enough to control such baser urges but you don't become a king at 15 by being like most men, this is good if she can marry her Margaery to the king she won't have to worry about him brining dishonour to her granddaughter
As Olenna comes and sits with the king, Queen Rhaella leaves after saying a few words to the king, she doesn't know what the old queen said but his grace just gives his grandmother a small smile as she leaves
"What can I do for you my lady ?, I keep hearing how the the queen of thorns is lashing at anyone in red keep these days "
"Your grace while you're busy with matters regarding the seven kingdoms these days but what I want to discuss with you is more important for the seven kingdoms, the king of the realm doesn't have a queen yet which is more important right now, every king needs a worthy queen to rule beside him, and none is more worthy than my granddaughter, she is most beautiful women in the seven kingdoms, our house is also one of richest house in the seven kingdoms and the reach has the biggest host to offer than any other kingdoms, you will find no better match than this anywhere your grace"
The young king just chuckles at my proposal and than looks right at me with a arrogant smirk forming on that beautiful face
"You make some great points my lady but the Reach and house Tyrell are of no importance to me or the crown, I never gave a single thought to reach or it's lords during my plan to take back the seven kingdoms, do you know why you or the reach was never a threat even with all your gold or men, Tywin lannister was threat because I knew when he called his banners all of the west will stand behind because they are too afraid not to, what can house Tyrell gather half of the reach men about 50,000 men atmost, even those men have no proper discipline and would lose to half their numbers in battle, and as for gold Dracarys is owned by me and House Targaryen, I am telling you this because from the next batch the Dracarys products will come with Targaryen sigil printed on it "
she knew it, someone was behind Dracarys and but she didn't think that the dragons were the ones behind it, she was tricked by that damn spider, and she can't do anything against the spider now because he was always supporting the Targaryens and is one of the close advisors to the king
Seven hells her house's gold was her biggest weapons to get the king to marry Margaery but with Dracarys they have more than enough gold to pay the crown's debt and still have a insane amount of gold left
"You might not need our gold and our men your grace, but the reach still supplies food to all of the seven kingdoms and the capital, you can't rule the seven kingdoms without our food even with dragons your grace"
The boy just laughed at her face, like she made a jape to entertain him
"Do you know why the Tyrells are still the the lord paramount of the reach even though your fat son did nothing but sit on his ass at Strom's End during the rebellion, because it is convenient for me, most of your major lords like the tarlys,the florents etc want your seat because at least they have bloodties to house gardener, this means that the flowers can never properly rule the reach without the dragons, but if the flower forgets it's place the there are many who can replace them in the garden, you see lady olenna I pay my debts you saw what happened to house lannister, unlike you House Velaryon stood by House Targaryen to the end during the rebellion, now they control the biggest fleet in the seven kingdoms including the royal fleet,they also have control of all the trade across the narrow sea, I don't forget those who are loyal to me but I also don't forgive the ones who stand against me, lucky for you House Tyrell just stood at the sidelines for the most of the rebellion or I would have had your head beside tywin's, so now do you understand the situation my lady or would you like my dragons to explain it to you "
" Yes it is very clear to me your grace, thank you for showing mercy on my house, I must be getting old to not see things properly " what a mess, she shouldn't have use food as a threat, now she antagonize the king
"If you are really looking for a good match than my brother Robb Stark is much better for lady Margaery than me, think about it north needs food during the winter and has no shortage of fighting men,while Tyrell rule is not stable in the reach but Starks have been ruling the north for 8,000 years, north and reach could really help eachother by this alliance "
"I will think about it your grace,now I must leave my old bones needs some rest "
How can this boy just threaten to destroy her entire house like he was talking about picking a flower, and she came here hell bent on convincing the boy to marry her Margaery,now she is leaving happy that she didn't lose her head, just a small talk with the king completely changed her outlook on things, should she be impressed or terrified, she is somehow feeling both
