“…Lord Redwyne was incredulous. «The Tyrells are dolts,» he said. «I am sorry, Your Grace, they are my liege lords, but… the Tyrells are dolts, and Lord Bertrand was a sot as well.»«That is as it may be,» Septon Barth admitted. «Lord Bertrand is in his grave now, however, and I am speaking of his son. Martyn is young and eager, but I will not vouch for the quality of his wits. His wife, however, is a Fossoway girl, the Lady Florence, who has been counting apples since she learned to walk. She has been keeping all the accounts at Highgarden since her marriage, and it is said she has increased House Tyrell’s incomes by a third. Should we appoint her husband, she would come to court as well, I do not doubt.»«Alysanne would like that,» the king said. «She enjoys the company of clever women.» The queen had not been attending council since the death of Princess Daenerys. Mayhaps Jaehaerys hoped that this would help bring her back to him again. «Our good septon has never led us wrong. Let us try the dolt with the clever wife, and hope that my leal smallfolk do not beat his head in with a cobblestone.»” -- source link
