Blood of the True Dragon

Chapter 17

"Your Majesty, this is a bit inappropriate." Ned Stark hurriedly stopped him.

"The poor king Aegon IV Targaryen legalized his illegitimate son, which caused the Blackfyre Rebellion (the male protagonist is a descendant of the Blackfyre family).

You can't make the same mistakes again! "

Robert was a little displeased to hear his good brother's words, and said a little harshly: "Ned, do you think I'm like King Yong?

The seat of the Iron Throne will always be Joffrey's and your daughter Sansa Stark will be queen, that will never change, I promise you.

His surname is not Baratheon, and he cannot be called king. "

He thought Ned was worried that Edric would affect the interests of his son-in-law Joffrey and his daughter Sansa in the future.

Ned looked helpless, he just felt that Robert would cause big problems for the Tyrell family in this way.

Although the fleet on Qingting Island is powerful enough, the Tyrell family is still the richest and most powerful in the river bend.

You can't mark someone as an anti-thief just because they opposed you back then, right?
"His Majesty……"

Ned Stark wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Robert raising his hand:
"I don't need to talk about this matter anymore, we can talk about how to deal with that Targaryen in detail.

Varys, you say he defeated pirates in Lys, does that mean he still has an army? "

Varys nodded:
"Yes, Your Majesty, he should have an army, otherwise he would not be able to defeat a pirate, unless he has a dragon, but the dragon has been extinct for hundreds of years."

Robert heard the dragon snort, "Dragon, the madmen of Targaryen are cursed by the dragon.

Since this bastard claims to be Rhaegar's son, I must cut off his head. Which navy do you think should be sent there? "

The Seven Kingdoms now have three major navies, the Iron Fleet formed by the Ironmen of the Iron Islands, the Royal Fleet of Stannis, and the Draven Fleet of Qingting Island.

To deal with the pirates on the Stone Step Islands, it is obviously not necessary to send all the core forces of the two fleets, so the task of chasing Aegon can also be entrusted to any of the three parties.

Varys immediately gave Robert an idea:

"Your Majesty, according to the information, they are going to Slaver's Bay. I think they can send ironmen there. Since they have sworn allegiance to you, at least they have to play some role."

To Robert, the group of ironmen on the Iron Islands was a group of unruly pirates. If they were sent to destroy Aegon, no matter who lost the battle, it would be a good thing for Robert.

In this way, Robert can sit on the sidelines in the early stage.

And he didn't feel comfortable entrusting such a task to his unworthy brother Stannis.

Robert nodded in satisfaction when he heard the news, expressing his agreement with the idea.

"Your Majesty, what if they buy an army that has always been strong and the Iron Fleet is defeated?" Ned couldn't help reminding.

"Then send assassins to kill those evil seeds. No, I will send assassins to kill them first. As long as I think of Targaryen alive, I can't stand it."

"Your Majesty, Daenerys is still a little girl."

Robert shouted angrily: "Ned, don't forget your brother, your father, and your sister all died at the hands of Targaryen."

His cheeks were fluttering with anger, his face was already flushed, and the words in his mouth still did not stop:

"Don't kill those Targaryens and wait for them to kill us?"

"Your Majesty, I also think it's inappropriate to deal with a little girl like this. The Seven Gods will blame us." Barristan, Captain of the Kingsguard, echoed Ned.

The two of them were the only ones of those present who opposed Robert killing Daenerys.

"Knight Barristan, remember that you are the king's Kingsguard, and the Kingsguard did not ask you to oppose the king.

Let Varys arrange this. "

After Robert finished speaking, he left indignantly.

But Barristan stood there for a while and then left alone.

On the way back, he remembered Rhaegar, and he felt that he had made a mistake in choosing to serve Robert.

But he had pledged allegiance to him, and he couldn't easily break the oath of the Kingsguard.

Baelish, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Littlefinger approached Varys after the meeting was over.

"I heard that Lord Varys is also from Lys."

Varys is still wearing his never-changing smile:

"Yes, it was a difficult time. I think Lord Baelish must have experienced that kind of hardship when he was young."

When Baelish was young, his family was just a poor lord, the kind of lord who didn't even have a castle.

And he has been calculating everywhere like Varys along the way. He firmly believes that chaos is the ladder to ascend.

So he has some empathy for Varys' childhood, except that he wasn't eunuched.

"Who says it's not? Those of us who are not as noble as others can only put in more effort than those people.

Oh, by the way, you said if that Aegon wasn't a liar, who might have helped him escape? "

A cold light flashed in Varys' eyes when he heard this, and his hands in his sleeves couldn't help tightening up a bit: "Who knows, my little bird can't know everything yet."

"That's right, but Lord Varys should also be considered an old subject of Targaryen, right?" Littlefinger narrowed his eyes and smiled.

It's just that this smile doesn't give people a sense of comfort at all.

As the most thoughtful person on the field, Littlefinger always speculates about everyone's motives with the greatest malice.

But he just couldn't guess what Varys' motive was, so he could only come to test it out.

"Lord Baelish, what do you mean by that? I was hired by the Mad King. You mean that I, a person who has nothing to do with Targaryen, will save that child?"

Seeing this, Littlefinger could only spread his hands and said, "I just said that casually! Since Lord Varys doesn't want to listen, I won't say anything."

Varys snorted angrily: "I hope Lord Baelish will stop making such unreasonable speculations, otherwise I can still say that I think Lord Jon Arryn (former Hand of the King) looks very much like Lys's." What about poison?

Some even say they saw you in Braavos.

How many lives do you think these groundless speculations will kill?Lord Baelish? "

Petyr Baelish's face was a little stiff when he heard this, and he couldn't say anything more, so he could only laugh:

"It's my fault, forgive me for being suspicious!"
