Take the ride to dominate the game

Chapter 199 I swear by the orthodox Targaryen blood

After marrying Lady Lysa Arryn, Baelish obtained the title of Guardian of the Valley. With the two identities of Duke Robin Arryn's adoptive father and Lady Lysa's husband, Littlefinger can barely adjust moved the army of House Arryn.

Fortunately, Arthur ordered all the valley families to send troops to the north, either to recover Winterfell, or to assist the night watchman army in resisting the wildling army, so the strength of all the valley families dropped by several levels.

As for the valley with the strongest defense in the Seven Kingdoms and Littlefinger who was hiding in the Eagle's Nest City, Arthur really didn't have many powerful means to deal with it.

Therefore, we can only use the method of "making a guest assassinate him" which cannot be put on the table.

The reason for using Aegon in Blood, the reckless man, is that if something goes wrong in the follow-up, the Freys can also be used to top it off.

A meeting with this eldest son of Aenys is arranged at the North Drum Tower Arms Showroom in the Red Keep.

The North Drum Tower is one of the seven iron-roofed Drum Towers of the Red Castle. From the observation port of the Drum Tower, you can also see the Reynis Hill and the ruins of the Dragon's Lair on the northwest side.

After Lord Frey finished communicating with his son, all irrelevant personnel exited the small room, leaving behind the king and Aegon the Bloody who had secretly entered King's Landing.

"I know that you don't think much of your father, and you don't want to inherit his title and territory."

Arthur first talked about family matters, and then changed the topic, "But if you want to get what you deserve as the eldest son, I can order your father to do what is in line with the laws of the kingdom..."

"Just maintain the status quo, Your Majesty." Bloody Aegon snorted coldly, rejecting the king's offer.

He also knew that he would never be able to obtain the territory of the River Ferry and the city of Twin Rivers from his father who was charged with the crime of kinslaughter.

And his father also liked his younger brother, Rhaegar Frey, known as "The Bug".

Arthur smiled slightly, "Innis also told you where to go this time, right?"

It's late at night, so it's better to make a long story short and go back and post with the women.

Aegon Bloody nodded, showing that he understood.

"Heart City, the territory of the Corbray family. As far as I know, the old widower Leonor Corbray was in love with him, and Lord Petyr Baelish arranged for him to introduce the daughter of a wealthy businessman from Seagull Town to To old Lord Corbray."

Arthur gave a general introduction to the background, and then explained the mission in detail: "When old Cobray married the rich merchant's daughter, Baelish and several nobles who supported him will appear in Heart City. Nephew Black Wald will be there too. All you have to do is kill Black Wald and Petyr Baelish."

Xinsu City is near the bay south of Five Fingers Peninsula, not far from Eagle's Nest City.

Bloody Aegon nodded, "I understand, this time, either I die or Black Walder dies."

Black Walder's death was in his family's best interest, so Aegon Blood responded.

But Arthur didn't think so. Killing Littlefinger was the biggest purpose of this trip, and Black Wald was just adding to the head, so the king emphasized again:
"Petyr Baelish is the most important target. Even if he escapes to Eagle's Nest City, you have to kill him and cut off his head."

It’s not okay to just make people work without giving any benefits. Arthur used a "carrot" hanging from his head to lure Aegon in Blood to work with his heart:

"As long as you complete the task, I will order you to be exonerated from all crimes, and let you walk in the world with a sinless body."

For a person like Aegon in Blood, he didn't like worldly things, so the king made such a promise.

"I will complete the task, not only for you, but also for my father."

Aegon, born for black work, responded.

Satisfied with this, the king patted him on the shoulder and left the place.

Arthur I, who brought Angay Bracken, Podrick, Will and a large group of guards, didn't want to return to Maegor's Tower in such a ostentatious manner. We went around to the South Drum Tower where we could see the Black Water Bay, and then took the opportunity to visit the Prime Minister's Tower to see Queen Margaery.

As the dormitory of the royal family, the number of floors of Maegor House did not conform to the characteristics of the Red Castle, which is related to seven. The reason is very simple. Years, how could it be possible to abide by the rules of the Seven Gods.

In fact, the entire nine floors of Meigor Building were repaired, except for the "Queen's Ballroom" connecting the first and second floors, the remaining seven floors have master bedrooms for the royal family to live in.

After everything came, Arthur decided to persuade Margaery to move into the fifth master bedroom of Maegor House.

After climbing the steps of the Prime Minister's Tower, the guards on duty had already announced the king's arrival to the nobles inside.

Hobber Redwyne was the first to welcome him into the "Little Hall" of the Prime Minister's Tower.

"Your Majesty, it's so late, why are you here in person?"

Although his father, Earl Paxter Redwyne, had taken office as the new Hand of the King, he had followed someone's rumor that Paxter had not lived in the Prime Minister's Tower.

"I suddenly want to see my wife and the baby in her belly. Where's your father?"

Lord Redwyne was supposed to be living in a small courtyard near the Godswood of the Red Keep, but Arthur knew why.

Hopper scratched his head and smiled awkwardly, "He heard a servant who chewed his tongue say that there is a curse from the Prime Minister in the Prime Minister's Tower, so he still lives in the yard of the Minister of the Sea."

Counting from Jon Arryn, to Lord Eddard Stark, to Lord Tywin Lannister, and Cersei's short-lived Hand, Harrys Swyfer, and then Mace Tyrell , In just over two years, five Hands of Kings died abnormally.

This made Lord Paxter suspicious, and after hearing from one of the servants, he refused to move into the Chancellor's Tower.

"He can live wherever he likes, but the Prime Minister's Tower cannot be wasted. After Queen Margaery moves into Maegor's Tower, all the nobles and ladies of the River Bend who are not relatives of the members of the Imperial Council will all move into it for me. Come."

Arthur ordered.

There are really too many Hewan people in the Red Fort, and the centralized address is for the convenience of management.

Huo Bo agreed, and he didn't care about where the people in Hewan lived. The other meaning in the king's words was the key point.

"Is Queen Margaery going to move into Maegor Hall?"

The two said as they walked, they had already arrived at the door of Margaery's room.

A member of the queen's female companions had already opened the door for the king.

After seeing his wife in loose robes, Arthur I answered Hopper's question.

"That's right, my wife, Margaery has to move into the master bedroom on the fifth floor of Maegor's Tower. That's the dormitory of the Targaryen family, and it's better than the Prime Minister's Tower in terms of security and spaciousness of the room. "

Today's Margaery has not yet reached the stage of showing pregnancy, except for the loose clothing, it is basically impossible to tell that she is pregnant.

"Your Majesty, your late-night visit made me feel strange..." The queen of the Tyrell family looked a little happy, and she didn't know whether it was faking or sincerity.

Arthur supported her arm and sent her to sit on the edge of the bed. "You are in good condition now. Don't be like Sansa, eating lemon cake all day long. Walk around properly and eat more meat and vegetables."

Queen Margaery nodded her head heavily, and seemed to be enjoying her husband's care.

Just in the time of these few words, five members of the female companion group had poured into the room. These women piled up near the king and his wife. Although they didn't interrupt, standing there gave Arthur a headache.

"You Miss River Bay, can't you go to rest?"

"Your Majesty, being with the queen will give us enough energy."

The speaker was a middle-aged woman, whom Arthur guessed was Jayna Tyrell, one of Margaery's two aunts.

"If you have enough energy, you have to do something." The king looked around at these noble ladies, and suddenly had a great idea.

These aristocratic ladies have received education from nuns and bachelors since they were young. In addition to their own knowledge, they often have certain management skills.

"Dear Margaery, do you remember that I mentioned something about vocational education to you?"

Arthur asked.

Margaery nodded lightly. Of course, she remembered what Arthur, who was still a minor nobleman, said to her outside the High Court.

It's just that she didn't understand why Arthur, who had become a husband, wanted to talk about it at this time tonight.

"Now is a good time to carry out vocational education. In the next one or two years, the Targaryen family will break the shackles of all slaves in the Free Trade City. These slaves often don't know what to do after they are freed. There is no meaning to life.”

Arthur looked at the bewildered faces of the Miss Riverbend, and explained deeply:
"The task I give you is to start schools in the monasteries and chapels in King's Landing City, and train a group of teachers who are eloquent and have some livelihood skills. In the future, we will re-find the direction of life for millions of slaves .”

The three cities of Slave Bay, Meereen, Astapor, and Yunkai, have revealed the problems of the new free people, and Arthur, who has been warned, will never make the same mistake.

Daenerys, who is also keen on breaking slave shackles, is also very concerned about this issue. Arthur decided to continue discussing this issue with the Dragon Queen after going back tonight.

Jena Tyrell, Mrs. Alysanne Bulwey and others stared at each other, wondering what this was all about.

Fortunately, Queen Margaery responded quickly, and she said in a sweet voice like a songbird's cry: "There is no problem at all, you people must obey the king's order, and from tomorrow onwards, you will go to various prominent places in the city, Declare the King's rule of law, and begin to train teachers worthy of His Majesty's requirements."

Although she also felt that her husband's proposal was outrageous. After all, the Targaryen family had only conquered the Stone Step Islands in history, and they did not manage well. It is almost impossible to conquer the Free Trade City, but supporting the king is what the queen should do, not to mention This sounds like a great benefit to the reputation of the Tyrell family, and it is not in vain.

Under the reminder of Queen Margaery, the ladies of the River Bay began to agree to the king's request repeatedly.

This matter is of the same nature as they sent clothes and rations to homeless children in the monastery before. The Tyrell family is very happy to use this method to increase their influence in King's Landing City.

After finding some work for the people of the Riverbend, Arthur felt much better. Finally, he told Queen Margaery to take a good rest and move into Maegor's mansion someday.

The following night, the king returned to his bedroom and had an in-depth and detailed discussion with Daenerys on the issue of vocational training after the emancipation of slaves for half the night.

……

The preparations for the war in the south were much smoother than Arthur thought.

Under the call of Loras, the Knight of Flowers, an army of nearly [-] people, mainly levies, gathered in the east of the Reach, such as Bumping Village, Bitter Bridge, and Long Table Hall. The second Dorne army Gather near the Boneway, too, and head north to the Stormlands in no time.

There is also an army of nearly [-] people near King's Landing City, but apart from sending Randall and the Tali army away, there are not many that can be used, and other forces must be prevented from stealing the house, so Arthur decided to bring only a small part of the army and customized The crossbow goes south.

According to Prince Oberyn, the Golden Company had two dozen war elephants, or 24 adult elephants.

Therefore, the difficulty of this battle is to deal with this group of behemoths with a shoulder height of ten to fifteen feet, that is, three to four and a half meters.

If it is an adult dragon, it can scare away any warhorse and war elephant with the dragon flame, but whether it is Alduin or Drogon, they are still in their infancy, unable to resist the attack of a large crossbow, nor can they resist the hunting dragon. The sharp arrow of the crossbow.

During the Dance of Dragons period, some non-adult dragons were killed by mobs.

In the last month of the 130th year of the Conquering Calendar, under the leadership of a "shepherd" who is the prophet of the crazy seven gods, tens of thousands of King's Landing mobs rushed into the Dragon's Lair and killed Terekhu, Sirikos, Mo Gur these three non-adult dragons.

An adult dragon, Dreamfire, was killed by striking the dome of the dragon's lair, and Syrax, the dragon of Guoguang, was also killed by the mob.

Therefore, the giant dragon can only be used as a deterrent, and cannot fight on the front line. To deal with war elephants, it has to be fought on the ground.

Arthur's plan is to use a flaming bow and arrow to limit the charge of the war elephant, and then find a way to besiege the war elephant, but the Golden Group is not all reckless, they will have corresponding methods.

So how to fight, I have been discussing with the people of Storm's End.

On the day when the king was preparing to go south, a large merchant fleet arrived at Dragonstone Island. For safety reasons, the Redwyne fleet stationed on Dragonstone Island did not agree to allow all merchant ships to enter Blackwater Bay. Go to King's Landing and see the king.

"Honorable His Majesty Arthur I Targaryen, as an old friend of the dragon family, we the Myers have sent us a belated wedding gift."

In the throne room, the special envoy from Myr, Ulas Adrian, delivered a gift to the Targaryen royal family in an exaggerated tone:
One hundred thousand old gold dragon coins.

Wearing the set of gold plate armor given by Margaery, Arthur waved his hand to accept the five large boxes full of gold coins, and then asked:
"Tell me, what do you want us to do?"

There have long been rumors that since the Golden Group broke the employment agreement with Mir, the city-state will ask for help from the Western Continent. Arthur thought this would happen around the time of his wedding with Margaery, but he did not expect the Mir people to come So late.

When Ulas Adrian saw that the owner of the Iron Throne accepted the gift calmly, he knew that the matter was settled, so he first recalled the friendly relationship between the two parties:

"Your Majesty, you know that during the Bloody Century, Volantis occupied our Myr for two full generations. Thanks to your ancestor, Aegon the Conqueror, who rode a dragon to assist us, we were able to regain control of our homeland. Now Volantis is restless again, and the Dothraki appear east of Myr, so we ask the aid of House Targaryen."

The Myr envoy ignored the enmity between the two sides during the Kingdom of the Third Daughter, and only told the story of the friendly relationship between the two sides.

Of course, Arthur wouldn't mention it either, he had been thinking about Mill's fat meat for a long time.

"I swear by the true Targaryen blood that Myr will be guarded."
