Take the ride to dominate the game
Chapter 193 Oh, Arthur!
King's Landing City, the meeting hall of the Red Castle.
Just arrived in King's Landing City, the journey was bumpy all the way, the king was invited by the courtiers to attend the imperial meeting before seeing his pregnant queen Sansa.
Except for the vacant Hand of the King, the captain of the Kingsguard, and the grand maester who has not yet arrived in the capital from the Academy City, the other six members of the Imperial Council, Daenerys the Dragon Queen, and Olenna, the helm of the Rose House, were specially invited to attend. The two queens, Mrs. Margaery and Sansa, all appeared in the round table conference hall.
"Your Majesty, I am ashamed of not being able to organize the security and security work of the Red Castle and King's Landing City. The accident of the Duke of Metz has a lot to do with me."
Commander of the King's Landing Garrison, Tristan Legge, was the first to speak.
He still knew a little about the king's temperament. The tall and handsome King Arthur I liked to listen to soft words. As long as he could admit his mistakes in time, he would generally not be held accountable.
What's more, he basically didn't make mistakes in Mace's death.
"It's a tragedy."
The king first looked at the Queen of Thorns with a sad expression forced out, and then asked:
"Assassination of the King's Hand is an unforgivable crime. How far have you investigated? Can you find the real culprit?"
To be honest, the death of a mediocre person like Mace would make Arthur's situation awkward.
In order to win over the powerful Hewan people, the next prime minister must come from the Rose family and her relatives.
If someone with skill and ability comes up, he will have to fight for a few rounds with the new prime minister.
Lando Tarly, the minister of justice who was in charge of hunting, and Paxter Redwyne, the sea minister, exchanged glances, and the unrelated Lord Lando reported to the king.
Earl Tully nodded to Arthur I first, and then slowly said: "We searched the entire Red Castle and confirmed that the murderer witnessed by the guards was not a servant or a guard, but he came from a secret underground passage. At present, we have already checked the murderer one by one. It is still unclear whether the murderer is still in the city after investigating the residents of King's Landing City."
He told the current progress to everyone present, and then put forward his own conjecture:
"According to the bachelor's opinion, and my personal conjecture, there were actually two people who killed the Grand Bachelor Gorman and the Duke of Metz."
"During the process of chasing the murderer, we learned from the servants that there was a male servant who claimed to be the servant of the Tyrell family and the servant of Harrenhal at the same time. Therefore, he deceived the unfamiliar parties. It is very likely that he killed Gorman. The Grand Maester's murderer, but he has disappeared from the Red Keep and is nowhere to be found."
"As for the murderer who killed the Duke of Metz, he should have broken in suddenly. Based on his familiarity with the secret passages of the Red Castle, it is very likely that he was a subordinate of a former courtier, or even a former courtier."
After listening to these facts and conjectures quietly, Arthur I encouraged the two courtiers to continue digging in this direction.
"The murderer can always be found!"
The Queen of Thorns looked at Landau expressionlessly the whole time, she was quite dissatisfied with the progress of the pursuit.
Of course, since his son Mace is dead, it doesn't matter who the real culprit is. The important thing is to exchange this matter for more benefits.
"Your Majesty, can I say a few words?"
After Randall had a conversation with Arthur I, Lady Olenna interrupted in time.
Arthur I stretched out his hand to signal: "Please speak."
The Queen of Thorns is much more realistic. This meeting will inevitably require him to appoint a new prime minister, but I don't know who the Rose family will nominate.
"Let the past be the past, we have to look forward. Your kingdom is rapidly unifying, but the most important hand of the king is empty, which is not good for the governance of the kingdom. Since my son is the former prime minister, I boldly Propose to the Iron Throne that Valas Tyrell be appointed as the new Hand of the King."
This proposal not only surprised Arthur I a little, but also made the rest of the courtiers unbelievable.
Since Vilas was broken by Prince Oberyn, he has been staying in Highgarden, basically not going out for activities.
According to the proposal of the Queen of Thorns, her eldest grandson is permanently stationed in King's Landing on behalf of the Rose family, and she returns to take charge of the territory herself, while Garland is in charge of the defense and military of the river bend.
Before the king and courtiers could react, Madam Olenna announced again: "Besides, Loras is already the Kingsguard. I suggest that he be the captain of the Kingsguard."
"Queen Margaery is also pregnant. The king should follow the practice of the Targaryen family and pick out a dragon egg for the upcoming child."
She fought for the interests of her family one after another.
The first two requests were still expected by Arthur, but the third one shocked him.
As a husband, he also knew that his second wife was pregnant on the way, but he didn't expect that the Queen of Thorns also knew about it when he arrived in King's Landing, and brought it up at such a high-end meeting.
Sansa, who was sitting behind the king, glanced at Margaery beside her while hugging her stomach.
The more she looked at it, the more she didn't like it, so she yelled: "Your Majesty, the child in my belly doesn't even have a dragon's egg!"
Little Rose was very quiet, didn't say anything, and let her grandmother fight for herself.
The courtiers congratulated the two queens on their pregnancy successively, but the king pressed his hands together to silence the conference hall.
"Ms. Olenna, the Duke of Vilas has a handicap. I feel uneasy for him to travel thousands of miles to King's Landing."
He declined the proposal from the Queen of Thorns, and then offered a compromise solution:
"Let the mature and stable Earl Redwyne be the Hand of the King, and let him recommend a sea minister to me."
"As for the Captain of the Kingsguard, the false King Joffrey's treatment of Ser Barristan Selmy was not lawful, so Ser Barristan is still the nominal Captain, even though he is in Slaver's Bay."
Although Vilas sounds gentle and kind, he is much smarter than Metz, Paxter and others. Arthur also wants to reduce the power of the nobles, so it is naturally impossible for Vilas, who is a top nobleman, to be the Hand of the King.
"Barristan is the Queen's Iron Guard, mine!" Before Lady Olenna could speak, Daenerys couldn't help it.
Fighting on the bed is a fight, and some things have to be carefully calculated.
She's coming for the Iron Throne.
The Queen of Thorns echoed, "That's right, Slaver's Bay is not the territory of the kingdom. How can Sir Barristan be the captain of the Iron Guard?"
Paxter is her nephew and son-in-law, and it is not unacceptable to let him be the Hand of the King, and let someone nominated by the family be the Sea Lord.
Anyway, as long as you send some smart people with Paxter, you can always control the situation.
Arthur I pointed to Mrs. Olenna, "Please remember that Slaver's Bay has been included in the kingdom's territory, but the distance is too far away, and it is inconvenient to communicate back and forth."
With Dani, a reckless girl, he has considerable confidence in taking down Slaver's Bay.
"As for the dragon eggs you mentioned, after this meeting is over, the two queens can choose each. We have four dragons, and hatching dragon eggs will be very convenient."
The king himself didn't know how to use a dragon to hatch a dragon egg, but he pretended to be very experienced and let the queen of thorns, who was more layman, guess.
After hearing that the dragon eggs could be picked immediately, Mrs. Olenna did not bother with the captain of the iron guard.
What matters is the dragon, as long as Margaery's child has a dragon, everything is under control.
"As you wish, Your Majesty! We Tyrell and all the Houses of the Reach obey your every command."
The matter of the new Hand of the King was settled in this way, but the situation of the two battlefields in the north and south did not make Arthur happy.
It was Randyll Tarly, who told the king part of the situation in the Stormlands and the North.
"For some reason, Storm's End was captured by the Golden Company, and Aegon VI officially unfurled the three red dragon banners. Since the news spread that Brightwater City was captured by Ser Garland, the soldiers of the Florens family Become very disturbed, they kidnapped Sir Axell on the eve of the fall of Storm's End, of course, this may also be a play directed and acted by Axel himself."
"It is said that Illyrio's slave sale in Volantis was very successful. A certain consul received the cheesemonger and promised to provide him with troops to make the slave hunt go smoothly."
"The Golden Regiment arrested our peasants in the southern part of the Stormlands. This disturbed many nobles of the Stormlands. They sent a letter to the Iron Throne asking us to send soldiers to expel the Golden Regiment."
After Earl Tully spoke, he took a sip of his wine before continuing.
"In the north, I don't know who informed the Bolton family to let them know about the gathering of troops in the valley. Roose Bolton led the army to the south. They marched along the White Knife River, and they seemed to want to block the army in the valley. Hong Kong, not allowing it to enter the northern border."
"In addition, the Bolton family swore allegiance to you and the Iron Throne through two channels, the raven and the messenger."
As far as Arthur knows, after the three dragons of Daenerys appeared in King's Landing, the entire valley began to actively respond to the order issued by King Arthur I to recover the northern border, and some families also began to gather soldiers, preparing to go to the Great Wall to garrison help defense.
Even the Arryn family sent a letter saying that they would send a king to serve the Iron Throne.
If there is no surprise, this is the hostage that the Eagle family gave Arthur.
"Who is the waiter they sent? Have you been to King's Landing?" Arthur asked.
The grand maester was supposed to control the raven, but Geman was dead, and Pycelle was sent to the Night's Watch, so the assistant maester handed the letter from the raven to the commander of the garrison, Tristan Legge.
He explained to the king: "Your Majesty, Myrcella Baratheon is the cupbearer of the Arryn family. He has already set off from Seagull Town and will arrive soon."
Myrcella, named Robert's daughter, is actually the illegitimate daughter of Jaime and Cersei.
According to the common customs of the Seven Kingdoms, Myrcella who grew up in King's Landing City should be named Myrcella Weishui.
The little devil, who had been silent all this time, suddenly became dissatisfied, "Myrcella is my niece, how can she be regarded as the bartender of the Arryn family? She didn't even conclude a formal marriage contract with Lord Robin Arryn!"
Arthur also agreed with this statement: "Yes, this woman cannot be counted as a member of the Arryn family. Let them send more important members. Of course, since Myrcella Weishui is coming soon, let her be my servant." Bar! Anyway, as an illegitimate daughter, she has nowhere to go."
Previously, in order to take advantage of Tyrion, James had never been sent to the Great Wall. Now that the Western Territory has been pacified, the status quo of the Lannister family is very much in line with the king's vision, and James is of little use. It is time to send him to be a vigil It's time for people.
"I am the Duke of Casterly Rock, and I can let Myrcella live there." Tyrion shouted.
The king already had two wives, a mistress, and flirts with his titular aunt, so he was worried about letting his beautiful niece stay with the king.
"Myrcella grew up in the Red Castle, and going to Casterly Rock would be a torture for her, so that's it." Arthur I made a final decision.
Then he turned to Prince Oberyn, "Where is your Dorne army? If you want Nightsong, you must help in destroying the Golden Company and Aegon VI."
The Red Viper spread its hands and said helplessly, "Your Majesty, I have only just arrived in Junlin City, and I don't know when my brother will send troops!"
He is not in a hurry anyway, thanks to Prince Doran's forbearance, Dorne's strength has been preserved very intact, and Arianne has successfully hooked up with the new king. Apart from not having the position of queen, the Martell family has gained enough benefits .
"Send the raven to urge, Daenerys and I are both in King's Landing, don't think about betting on both sides, you must send troops to fight in the future."
Arthur I said seriously.
According to Prince Doran's prudent style, he must bet on the two major dragon forces, but Daenerys' behavior of riding a dragon all the way to King's Landing City will definitely disrupt his deployment.
Anyway, Dawn has no reason to watch anymore.
The current situation in the Stormlands is fairly stable, and it will be difficult for the Golden Group to stabilize the situation in the south of the Stormlands, and there is no extra troops to continue to expand northward.
And Earl Matus Rowan is also integrating the Riverbend Army and the army of the northern family of the Stormlands, and will soon be able to attack south.
If Dorn also goes north to attack, it is possible to drive the Golden Company out of the Stormlands before Volantis' reinforcements arrive, and even let the mercenary group directly confess to Westeros.
"No problem, Your Majesty!"
Prince Oberyn nodded and agreed.
The meeting lasted for a long time, and after discussing the current major affairs of the kingdom, Arthur I ordered several tasks to the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Tyrion.
"Duke Lannister, you have to redesign the sewage system for King's Landing, and try to build a water purification plant so that the common people can have clean water to drink."
Because of the extremely poor water quality of the Heishui River, most of the nobles and wealthy businessmen in the capital used low-alcohol alcohol as their daily drinks.
The civilians do not have the financial resources, so they can only use the river water.
"Okay, okay." The little devil agreed, although he didn't know why the Minister of Finance was doing the work of a bachelor.
"Finally, all the nobles who came to King's Landing with consultant bachelors, send your bachelors to treat the people. Diseases are very prevalent during this time, and we have to curb this trend."
Arthur I declared.
The courtiers carried out the king's orders.
……
After the meeting in the round table conference hall, the two queens, the new Prime Minister Earl Paxter Redwyne, the Queen of Thorns and others went to Maegor's Mansion to participate in the selection of dragon eggs.
The remaining six dragon eggs have been well hidden by Arthur. They are usually hidden in Harrenhal during wars. After welcoming Sansa to the Red Keep last time, these six dragon eggs were also brought to Maegor's Mansion and placed in the In the secret closet of the king's bedchamber.
The princes and nobles who participated in the selection of dragon eggs stayed in the queen's ballroom on the first floor, and the king, his servant Poderick and others went to find the dragon eggs.
Soon, the round stone that made the Queen of Thorns and Margaery think about it day and night appeared in their eyes.
Huge dragon eggs may be the most beautiful things anyone has ever seen, rich in texture and color, with tiny scales lining the surface of the shell.
Queen Sansa was the first to pick up a red dragon egg, and the light of the candle passed through her white and tender fingers and shone on the egg, shining like polished light.
She laughed and said to her husband: "I think it looks like fine ceramic or enamel, or blown glass, but the dragon egg is much heavier than that, and it weighs like a solid stone."
Although she knew that Arthur had an extra dragon egg, it was the first time she had seen it, so like an ignorant little girl, she first picked up a favorite dragon egg and held it in her hand.
Queen Margaery didn't like the red dragon eggs very much, her beautiful eyes turned around on the remaining five, and then discussed with her grandmother.
The colors of the remaining dragon eggs are: green, blue, light yellow, gray purple, black brown.
"Green, I like green, it looks very lively." Little Rose said softly to her grandmother.
The Queen of Thorns had her own idea, "The black and brown one."
Although it is rumored that the size of the dragon can keep getting bigger, according to the known facts, the black dragon grows faster than other dragons, and the upper limit is much higher.
For example, Balerion, the black god of death, Alduin, the king, and Drogon, the black dragon of Daenerys.
So Margaery held the black-brown dragon egg in both hands, and turned to the king: "My son has chosen this dragon egg."
Arthur nodded and admitted that the dragon egg temporarily belonged to the child in Margaery's womb.
Lord Redwyne, Hand of the King, expressed his niece Margaery's congratulations, and the Queen of Thorns and her granddaughter also laughed and played with the dragon egg.
It's just that Sansa was upset, "My child also wants a dragon egg, and this is the red one."
Upon hearing this, Madam Olenna turned her head vigilantly, and reminded her: "Your Majesty, don't forget our agreement."
They had previously reached a secret agreement that the Tyrell family would pay Alduin and the food expenses of the dragon that hatched later, in exchange for the children that Margaery gave out to be the first to pick the dragon.
It's fine to pick the dragon egg first, but if Sansa also picks a dragon egg, the Queen of Thorns will not agree.
Arthur looked at Sansa helplessly. If she let go of the red dragon egg now, it would hurt her heart severely.
But the queen of thorns is not having a good time here.
The gold mines in the western region have not yet operated, and the current king is still very poor and cannot do without the support of the Rose family.
"How about this, the dragon egg that Margaery picked will hatch first, and I will hatch the red dragon egg after Sansa gives birth to a son."
King Arthur I promised so.
Mrs. Olenna is quite satisfied with this plan, and there are enough loopholes in the king's words that can be exploited.
As long as Sansa can't have a son, or even as long as Sansa can't have a child, it doesn't matter if she gets the dragon egg.
It's just a priceless stone.
Sansa got the dragon egg she wanted, but Sansa didn't care about her husband's promise.
After picking the dragon eggs, the Queen of Thorns and Lord Redwyne left Maegor's Mansion at the same time, and Arthur sent the two queens to their respective rooms to raise their babies.
When the king settled the two wives, Podrick suddenly told him: "Prince Dany wants to meet you in the throne room."
Arthur is curious why Daenerys chose this location, but he knows that the Dragon Queen probably wants to have a showdown with him.
To show his sincerity, he changed into the black dragon leather armor before going to see Daenerys in the Throne Hall.
The huge heavy door opened slowly, and after Arthur entered, he ordered Podrick and the guards to close the door and guard the door.
Sure enough, Daenerys sat on the Iron Throne with a serious face. She raised her beautiful and delicate chin, and announced to the elder nephew who was walking slowly:
"Only one person can sit on the Iron Throne, and that is the Targaryen orthodox me."
The dragon queen with inhuman beauty is wearing a long white dress, with her hands resting on the armrest of the Iron Throne.
Her fair skin contrasted sharply with the dark throne, making her seem to have a faint radiance for a week.
"I'll have a good talk with you about this matter." After the king finished speaking, he stepped up to the high platform and began to persuade the beautiful and charming Dragon Queen.
Ten minutes later, Podrick, who was guarding the door of the throne room, suddenly heard the sound of extremely fast crashes, and the continuous "Oh, Arthur!"
What a strange way the two of them talked, Pod thought to himself.
PS: Ask for a recommendation ticket and ask for a monthly ticket.
Just arrived in King's Landing City, the journey was bumpy all the way, the king was invited by the courtiers to attend the imperial meeting before seeing his pregnant queen Sansa.
Except for the vacant Hand of the King, the captain of the Kingsguard, and the grand maester who has not yet arrived in the capital from the Academy City, the other six members of the Imperial Council, Daenerys the Dragon Queen, and Olenna, the helm of the Rose House, were specially invited to attend.

If Dorn also goes north to attack, it is possible to drive the Golden Company out of the Stormlands before Volantis' reinforcements arrive, and even let the mercenary group directly confess to Westeros.
"No problem, Your Majesty!"
Prince Oberyn nodded and agreed.
The meeting lasted for a long time, and after discussing the current major affairs of the kingdom, Arthur I ordered several tasks to the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Tyrion.
"Duke Lannister, you have to redesign the sewage system for King's Landing, and try to build a water purification plant so that the common people can have clean water to drink."
Because of the extremely poor water quality of the Heishui River, most of the nobles and wealthy businessmen in the capital used low-alcohol alcohol as their daily drinks.
The civilians do not have the financial resources, so they can only use the river water.
"Okay, okay." The little devil agreed, although he didn't know why the Minister of Finance was doing the work of a bachelor.
"Finally, all the nobles who came to King's Landing with consultant bachelors, send your bachelors to treat the people. Diseases are very prevalent during this time, and we have to curb this trend."
Arthur I declared.
The courtiers carried out the king's orders.
……
After the meeting in the round table conference hall, the two queens, the new Prime Minister Earl Paxter Redwyne, the Queen of Thorns and others went to Maegor's Mansion to participate in the selection of dragon eggs.
The remaining six dragon eggs have been well hidden by Arthur. They are usually hidden in Harrenhal during wars. After welcoming Sansa to the Red Keep last time, these six dragon eggs were also brought to Maegor's Mansion and placed in the In the secret closet of the king's bedchamber.
The princes and nobles who participated in the selection of dragon eggs stayed in the queen's ballroom on the first floor, and the king, his servant Poderick and others went to find the dragon eggs.
Soon, the round stone that made the Queen of Thorns and Margaery think about it day and night appeared in their eyes.
Huge dragon eggs may be the most beautiful things anyone has ever seen, rich in texture and color, with tiny scales lining the surface of the shell.
Queen Sansa was the first to pick up a red dragon egg, and the light of the candle passed through her white and tender fingers and shone on the egg, shining like polished light.
She laughed and said to her husband: "I think it looks like fine ceramic or enamel, or blown glass, but the dragon egg is much heavier than that, and it weighs like a solid stone."
Although she knew that Arthur had an extra dragon egg, it was the first time she had seen it, so like an ignorant little girl, she first picked up a favorite dragon egg and held it in her hand.
Queen Margaery didn't like the red dragon eggs very much, her beautiful eyes turned around on the remaining five, and then discussed with her grandmother.
The colors of the remaining dragon eggs are: green, blue, light yellow, gray purple, black brown.
"Green, I like green, it looks very lively." Little Rose said softly to her grandmother.
The Queen of Thorns had her own idea, "The black and brown one."
Although it is rumored that the size of the dragon can keep getting bigger, according to the known facts, the black dragon grows faster than other dragons, and the upper limit is much higher.
For example, Balerion, the black god of death, Alduin, the king, and Drogon, the black dragon of Daenerys.
So Margaery held the black-brown dragon egg in both hands, and turned to the king: "My son has chosen this dragon egg."
Arthur nodded and admitted that the dragon egg temporarily belonged to the child in Margaery's womb.
Lord Redwyne, Hand of the King, expressed his niece Margaery's congratulations, and the Queen of Thorns and her granddaughter also laughed and played with the dragon egg.
It's just that Sansa was upset, "My child also wants a dragon egg, and this is the red one."
Upon hearing this, Madam Olenna turned her head vigilantly, and reminded her: "Your Majesty, don't forget our agreement."
They had previously reached a secret agreement that the Tyrell family would pay Alduin and the food expenses of the dragon that hatched later, in exchange for the children that Margaery gave out to be the first to pick the dragon.
It's fine to pick the dragon egg first, but if Sansa also picks a dragon egg, the Queen of Thorns will not agree.
Arthur looked at Sansa helplessly. If she let go of the red dragon egg now, it would hurt her heart severely.
But the queen of thorns is not having a good time here.
The gold mines in the western region have not yet operated, and the current king is still very poor and cannot do without the support of the Rose family.
"How about this, the dragon egg that Margaery picked will hatch first, and I will hatch the red dragon egg after Sansa gives birth to a son."
King Arthur I promised so.
Mrs. Olenna is quite satisfied with this plan, and there are enough loopholes in the king's words that can be exploited.
As long as Sansa can't have a son, or even as long as Sansa can't have a child, it doesn't matter if she gets the dragon egg.
It's just a priceless stone.
Sansa got the dragon egg she wanted, but Sansa didn't care about her husband's promise.
After picking the dragon eggs, the Queen of Thorns and Lord Redwyne left Maegor's Mansion at the same time, and Arthur sent the two queens to their respective rooms to raise their babies.
When the king settled the two wives, Podrick suddenly told him: "Prince Dany wants to meet you in the throne room."
Arthur is curious why Daenerys chose this location, but he knows that the Dragon Queen probably wants to have a showdown with him.
To show his sincerity, he changed into the black dragon leather armor before going to see Daenerys in the Throne Hall.
The huge heavy door opened slowly, and after Arthur entered, he ordered Podrick and the guards to close the door and guard the door.
Sure enough, Daenerys sat on the Iron Throne with a serious face. She raised her beautiful and delicate chin, and announced to the elder nephew who was walking slowly:
"Only one person can sit on the Iron Throne, and that is the Targaryen orthodox me."
The dragon queen with inhuman beauty is wearing a long white dress, with her hands resting on the armrest of the Iron Throne.
Her fair skin contrasted sharply with the dark throne, making her seem to have a faint radiance for a week.
"I'll have a good talk with you about this matter." After the king finished speaking, he stepped up to the high platform and began to persuade the beautiful and charming Dragon Queen.
Ten minutes later, Podrick, who was guarding the door of the throne room, suddenly heard the sound of extremely fast crashes, and the continuous "Oh, Arthur!"
What a strange way the two of them talked, Pod thought to himself.
