Chapter 205 Dragon QueenIn addition to her breathtaking beauty, Daenerys has a chilling hair A special power that stands upright and can't help but want to kneel and obey. Only those who have experienced it close to it will understand: in this world, there is such a thing as "king's breath".
Looking at her not far away, Petyr Baelish realized that the young girl in House Targaryen in front of her could cross half of Essos in just one year, from a Barbarian vassal to today's owner An army, three dragons, and countless Legendary titles are more than chance and luck.
Even if it's not the first time we've seen each other, Petyr still gets goosebumps when he gets close to the Queen, which is definitely not an illusion - even without looking at the other person's face, he can clearly feel it To: the person sitting on the little silver horse enjoying the cheers of the crowd is the Queen, not any other woman.
***
After Braavos sold the remaining property, the former Master of Coin went south in disguise and arrived at Pentos via Andalos, where he purchased some daily necessities, and got up. Okay, get ready to get away from the Westeros West Coast of Essos, which is full of Westeros merchants and may be recognizable at any time... Go to Norvos or Qohor, hide your identity, and start a potentially boring second half of your oneself.
However, just two short days after leaving the city, he was caught in his sleep by several unidentified men while sleeping rough at night, brought back to Pentos and put on a boat.
At first Petyr thought it was King Robert's Bounty Hunter who caught oneself and wanted to take oneself back to face trial. All of a sudden, he was desperate, and almost looked for an opportunity to commit suicide... But his keen observation made him quickly discover: The ship carrying the oneself was not crossing the narrow sea, but was heading south along the west coast of Essos, and soon turned to the east.
It didn't take long for him to grab his mysterious person and explained to Petyr the destination of the trip - the ship was going to Slaver's Bay, and he was going to find Daenerys Targaryen after going ashore and defected to For her, assist the descendant of the True Dragon, and at the most suitable time, lead the Queen to counterattack Westeros and restore the Targaryen Dynasty.
The feeling of being manipulated by someone is definitely terrible, but as a small man, I left the site where oneself had been operating for a long time and came to a strange and different continent, and was confiscated and confiscated the last bit of wealth... He has no brains and no place to use it. If he is away from this group of people who have captured oneself, I am afraid that he will not be able to live for a week.
In desperation, he decided to temporarily put up with the arrangements of the mysterious manipulator behind the scenes.
The ship docked at Yunkai, but unfortunately Daenerys and her army had already left for Meereen, Petyr slowly drove in desert for half a month under the "protection" of brawny man Belwas , finally found the target person of this trip under the city of Meereen, and expressed the intention of defecting to her.
The first meeting was not a pleasant one, and as a gift and for her own safety, Petyr immediately revealed the identity of Jorah Mormont's undercover agent after completing his self-introduction. This made Daenerys angry, and Knight, the Queen's closest and trusted friend, fell out of favor in an instant, and was sent from personal guards and aides to drill into Meereen's sewers... to complete the cooperation between the inside and the outside.
Unfortunately, this whistleblower, aside from earning them the right to stay and enjoy their tents and food, did not immediately gain Petyr's trust, in Daenerys' exact words -- debunking A liar person can be an even bigger liar.
And then the Wonders happened, and in the presence of Petyr, the Dragon Queen who cheated along the way silently recreated the Wonders: with a group of gutter men and a stake, she took many in one night. Meereen was originally thought to be impossible to capture. And when the sun just rose, it began to enter the city ceremony.
In the plaza in front of the Great Pyramid, slave-masters huddled desperately, being dragged out of bed in their sleep. In the morning light, the "great masters" didn't look like they were stalwarts. They were deprived of jewelry and robes. They looked so humble and ugly, huddled together like a group of shaved monkeys.
"I want your leader," the Dragon Queen rode to a halt in front of the square and shouted to the captives, "Hand over them, and the rest will forgive."
"How much?" An Old Lady sobbed and asked, "How many people will it take for you to forgive us?"
"One hundred and sixty-three," she replied, "all nailed to the stakes around the square, ensuring that every Each pointed to the next person, like the children on the way to Meereen!"
The captives screamed and shoved, but the fully armed Unsullied were emotionless He rushed into them, pulled out the core members of the various houses surrounded by the crowd, counted 163 people, and then threw them aside... Some of them yelled, some shouted for mercy, and some directly slumped into mud. Urinary incontinence...
Petyr frowned.
What is this doing? Two days ago, the shock of seeing three dragons that looked as big as people and thousands of well-trained Unsullied, and the surprise of seeing Daenerys easily take down Meereen, made Petyr's original resistance a little loose: maybe according to the catch Oneself, the mysterious person's arrangement, to follow and assist the last Targaryen, can oneself really counterattack Westeros in his lifetime and sit back at the table of the Imperial Council, or even on the Iron Throne?
Damn, I just thought this Queen was a bit reliable, and was trying to get her idea, this girl is going to perform in public "doing a stupid thing to push oneself to the dead end"?
"Queen Your Majesty." Petyr couldn't stand it any longer and shouted in the crowd of followers: "I heard the scene you saw on your way to Meereen and fully understand that you are full of fiery heart right now. The fury of the raging True Dragon, but I still have to tell the truth - every time you nail a great man on a stake, your oneself is one step closer to being staked!"
Unsullied, The pawns and the large number of slaves released from their shackles moved out of the way so that Daenerys could see the speaker more clearly. The Dragon Queen is pretty and frosty, staring coldly at the former Master of Coin who defected across the Narrow Sea: "This is punishment, life is for life, you came all the way from Westeros, is it for these slave- master begging for mercy?"
"No, I don't mean to say any nonsense for these people who are not my relatives or not, on the contrary, I think - these slave-masters, you should not forgive any of them. They all Damn, not just one hundred and sixty-three!"
As soon as these words came out, not only were the great masters of the crowd pulled out by the Unsullieds, but even the rest of them rioted. Even among Daenerys' followers there was disapproval, and the young Dragon Queen originally thought she had encountered a dissuader, who would have been a more radical liberator, making her a little not knowing what to do for a while.
"No, there must be innocents among these people. I want righteous revenge, not brutal slaughter."
"Since opinions differ, then Queen Your Majesty, Would you like to imprison these slave-masters for the time being, and make a decision after listening to the inferences below!"
"humph." An extremely handsome mercenary beside the Queen stood up: "Queen What kind of identity, how can you find time to listen to the words of a treacherous person like you?"
"Yes, there is indeed some bad news about me in Westeros across the Narrow Sea, but those are all malicious slanders." Littlefinger didn't know the talking mercenary, so he just stood upright in the crowd, raised his head and looked at Daenerys with a face doesn't change: "Even if those rumors are all true, so what? The person who is said to be poisoned by me, but Jon Arryn, who helped Robert the snatcher to overthrow Targaryen, is Your Majesty your enemy! In the face of defectors who come across thousands of miles, could the honorable Queen Your Majesty even sit down and listen to my point of view and see if each other is speculative time and patience?”
…
Daenerys hates this kind of trick, and she doesn’t want to pay any attention to one – seduce other wives, and collude with them The guy who stole her husband's life and property... Even if the deceased is the swindler's lackey, the enemy of oneself, it doesn't change her senses in the slightest. The phrase "the enemy of the enemy is a friend" does not apply everywhere, oneself is a person first, and then a Targaryen.
Unhappy in her heart, but looking around at the soldiers and the newly liberated slaves who were all focused on the oneself, she still decided - to give the guy in front of him a chance to express his opinion, but No matter what he said, she would take the lives of these one hundred and sixty-three slave-masters.
"Detain them all, and the one hundred and sixty-three are separated from the others!" Daenerys rode on the small silver horse and made a gesture, and his subordinates immediately cleared the way to the city Road in the center of the Great Pyramid. "Petyr ·Baelish? Come on, let me hear your rhetoric."
***
After a while, in the reception hall of the Meereen Great Pyramid, Daenerys sat down Going to the soft chair of the most powerful master in Meereen, he looked at Petyr Baelish who came with oneself with disdain: "Okay, the former Master of Coin, the former Master of Coin, what do you do with me? If the slave-master has any comments, please tell me."
Petyr looked around and couldn't find a place to sit. Instead, he asked Daenerys' guard to give him a vigilant look. "Your Majesty, in the slave camp you dragged..."
"They're not slaves, they're freemen."
"Well, in Your Majesty's freedom Living in the Legion for two days, I already know a little bit about what you did in Astapor and Yunkai... Let me say admiration, at Your Majesty's age, you have been able to use virtue and kindness so skillfully to mobilize The slave at the bottom will serve you."
When you liberate the slave, how come this person's mouth becomes "using virtue and kindness to mobilize the slave to serve oneself"? Daenerys was unhappy, but didn't expect to refute, just staring at each other silently.
"It's a pity that you captured two slave city-states by the same means, but you didn't give the people a way to survive, so you came to Meereen in a hurry..."
p>
"No way to live?" Daenerys shifted unpleasantly to make oneself more comfortable: "I established a council for Astapor and Yunkai."
"You established The council has left them without an army or a way to make a living."
The respect in Petyr's tone gradually disappeared, and oneself prepared a set of rhetoric to impress the Queen when he was in the camp for the past two days, but Daenerys' reckless order of "one hundred and sixty-three" made him uneasy for the second time he met Daenerys - helping Daenerys to kill Westeros is wonderful, but there is a very important point to be clear before betting oneself as a chip: Daenerys Is it a Queen worthy of assistance, or an arrogant and arrogant person who only relies on beauty and three dragons to conquer the world, the female version of Mad King?
