Chapter 270
The old man was stunned. He had lived his whole life and had never been more shocked, excited, or frightened than this moment.
"This kind of handwriting..." he murmured, suddenly lifting the head, looking at Dany in confusion and asking, "Your Majesty, what do you get for doing this?"
"This kind of writing..." p>
"I can save a lot of people." Dany indifferently said.
"That's 50 million Golden Dragons!"
"Hehe, don't believe me, I thought there was too much gold in my house, and I even sank them all. The idea of the sea. Now it can save millions of people, I think it is very worthwhile." Dany smiled happily.
"But what do those people have to do with you?" The old man is still incomprehensible.
Gold belongs to oneself, and the lives of people in other countries belong to others. What can Dragon Queen get?
"They have nothing to do with me at all, but they are human, living! There are old and young, babies and mothers, Maiden and teenagers, all of your lives are tragically disappearing before your eyes, don't they? Don't you have any mercy?"
Old Man of Oldtown pursed his lips and said aggrievedly: "I have nothing in front of me, who do you have mercy on?"
See old Man dared to talk back, Dany said angrily: "hmph, can't you imagine? Oneself go to see the poorest people in Oldtown lower city, and then imagine millions of those people starve and freeze to death in front of you. "
To be honest, don't imagine that even if the hoi polloi lined up to die tragically in front of me, my old heart wouldn't be touched in the slightest.
old man muttered in his heart, but he didn't dare to keep his mouth shut.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, I fully understand your plans, it's just..."
"Just what?"
"3 million Golden Dragon is too big to buy food, how can I explain it to others?" asked the old man.
"What's the explanation? You sent someone to buy grain across the Narrow Sea, and the ship directly delivered the grain to Dragonstone. Now the situation in the Seven Kingdoms is chaotic, and the power struggle in King's Landing is fierce. Who cares about your grain purchase? Fleet? "
"This..." The old man thought for a while, and nodded agreed, "Your Majesty, you have to take down Dragonstone early, tomorrow morning, I will send fleet to the other side of the Narrow Sea to buy it." Food."
"en. ”
old man asked tentatively: "Then, my son Garth..."
"Okay, Let him join my Queensguard, help me carry food first, and wait until Dragonstone, and I will accept his oath in person."
"many thanks Your Majesty!" old man let out a long sigh of relief, "I'm going to call Archmaester Marwyn."
Five minutes later, Marwyn and Alleras came to Dany, while the old man and his daughter stayed downstairs.
"Ai, I didn't expect you to be the Dragon Queen." Marwyn looked complicated, "Because of oneself's innate talent, and because of the lack of a future in Magic, Maester has been trying to build a "No Magic, No Spiritual" God's 'real world'.
And dragons cause Magic Tide, bring Magic to the world, which is unbearable for them, and the real reason to assassinate you."
"I I know."
"Uh, you know?"
"Archmaester Perestan is still alive and taken prisoner by me." Dany didn't mention the bookstore.
“What is Your Majesty going to do with Citadel?” Marwyn asked nervously.
"The Citadel needs to exist, and the Maesters who murdered me don't have to die, but they must put on black robes and go to the Wall."
"Your Majesty mercy!" Bull Marwyn sighed in relief on the neck, and asked, "Your Majesty, I don't know if you need Maester, I will swear to work for you."
Dany thought for a while and said, "Well, you go with Garth to Dragonstone , Earl Leyton will explain to you the specifics."
Marwyn looked thoughtful nodded: It seems that House Hightower has taken refuge with Dragon Queen.
The two didn't talk any further, they agreed to use glass candles to communicate, and promised Alleras that they would accept her as a Magic apprentice and part-time maid, and Dany ended the remote communication.
When I opened the tent curtain and came out, the beef and barley soup in the iron pot was already cooked, and the old red-nosed Archmaester was eating sweetly with a wooden bowl.
“How?” White Cloak asked as he served her soup.
Dany glanced at the old Archmaester who pricked up his ears to eavesdrop, laughed, and said, "Unexpectedly great harvest." Big Black, who was gnawing on the corbel behind the tent, lifted the head and roared toward the northwest.
"Someone's here." Dany stood up and walked over to Big Black.
"wang wang wang ......" 5 minutes later, a rush of barking came from outside the forest. The bark was full of unease and fear, and several men shouted and stopped. Not before the hound.
After a while, a man walked into the fire within 100 meters and shouted to his companion: "There is a bonfire, there, the poachers are there!"
"It's unlucky, Are there still people out to patrol the forest in the middle of the night?" Dany whispered.
In Westeros, most of the forests in the lord's territory do not allow ordinary hunters to go hunting. If a poacher is caught, either cut off a hand or put on black clothed.
"Your Majesty, I'll go talk to them." White Cloak volunteered, put on an iron helmet, walked to the border of light and darkness, and shouted: "But Stokeworth's rangers? "
Someone in the dark replied: "We are Earl Stokeworth's guards, who are you?"
White Cloak patted oneself's armor and longsword hard, "See? We're not Poachers, it's getting late, so they have to camp in the woods."
Poachers can't afford a full set of armor.
The guard whispering in the dark said a few words, and the rustling footsteps came from far to near, and suddenly, a man yelled: "The smell of roast beef, Lord Earl, your cow is indeed It was stolen by them."
"Kill these cattle thief!" said another deep male voice, gloomy and coldly.
"whiz whiz whiz..." next moment, a rain of arrows shot towards White Cloak, and the Earl guard in the dark also screamed and drew his long sword and rushed towards the fire past.
"ding ding ding!" The fire star splashed on the old Knight's body, he stepped back in the direction of Dany, and yelled: "If you have something to say, we have Golden Dragon, don't give it away for two bulls. I lost my life!"
"Arrogant!" Twenty or thirty swordsmen in chainmail and leather armor rushed over quickly under the leadership of a silver plate armor man.
"Ah..." The old Knight sighed and stepped aside.
"Bang-bang!"
Big Black Little White sticks out his head, and spit out two blood-red Dragonflame, the dark night is torn apart, and the fire shines in a radius of several hundred Meters, the old Knight clearly saw that the group of Warriors suddenly froze, the very ruthless color on his face disappeared instantly, replaced by dazed and endless panic.
"Dragon...Dragon?" Feeling the temperature of the Dragonflame above his head, the leading plate-armored man struggled to spit out a word from his throat.
"ahhhh, dragon, dragon!" The soldier woke up, threw away his long sword, and ran frantically out of the forest.
"Come back to me!" Dany screeched loudly, his hands swept across the night sky, and the Dragonflame sprayed diagonally above, twisting and elongated as if alive, and the two Dragonflames turned into two fire snakes. , roaming in the woods, avoiding ginkgo trunks, forming a huge fire ring and surrounding the soldiers.
"Dragonlord spare your life!" The man in plate armor fell to his knees and shouted, "Please don't kill me, I'm Stokeworth Earl, Bronn. I'm willing to pay the ransom!"
"Dragonlord spare your life!" The group of soldiers followed behind Earl, kneeling and wailing.
"Bronn? I haven't heard your name, what about Tanda Stokeworth Earl Lady?" asked the old Knight.
"Lady fell off a horse and I'm Lollys' husband," Bronn explained.
"Hehe, fell off a horse and died?" Archmaester Perestan limped over and sneered, exposing Roron's old bottom, "This Earl Bronn is a ruthless character who made his fortune by running errands for Imp, After the Purple Wedding, he betrayed Tyrion and took refuge in Cersei.
As a result, Queen Dowager Cersei assigned a 'good' marriage, married Lady Tanda's second daughter Lollys, and later in Lady Tanda's marriage Immediately did a trick, causing Lady Tanda to fall off a horse and break her pelvis.
And then killed Earl Stokeworth's first-in-line heir, Lady Tanda eldest daughter, in a duel. Her husband, Ser Balman Byrch.
In the end, he kicked Lady Falyse (Lady Tanda's eldest daughter) out of the house and called himself Earl Stokeworth."
Bronn frowned and looked at the old Archmaester. Fan, seeing the long chain on his neck, couldn't help pupil shrink, "Are you Maester?"
"hmph, I'm from Citadel, Archmaester of History, I know your old story!"
Bronn turned black and cursed: "Kandal that old bastard betrayed me? He swore allegiance to me. Damn, I knew Maester untrustworthy."
"Maester Kandal to Stokeworth The owner of the castle is loyal, you did those things, thinking King's Landing will let you go?" The old Archmaester sneered.
Bronn glanced at Dany in front of Big Black and defended: "First of all, I didn't betray Lord Tyrion, I just refused to take his place in the trial by combat. Look at the tragic end of Red Viper, it shows that My decision was not wrong.
Secondly, Lady Tanda oneself was careless, she was still riding a horse to hunt for a lot of age, it had nothing to do with me, and Maester Kandal slandered me.
Finally, Ser Balman and Falyse got Queen Dowager Cersei's will to get rid of me through a duel, but unfortunately Balman's skills are not good, so I killed him."
"You fouled in jousting and deliberately stabbed to death with the head of a gun. Ser Balman's horse."
"Come on, don't talk about these things," Dany waved his hand, interrupting the two, disarming the Dragonflame fire ring, and saying to Bronn, "It's me. The dragon ate your cow, wrong first, but you also offended me. I won't kill you today, just leave with your people!"
Bronn got up but didn't leave , cautiously asked: "Lord Dragonlord, can you tell me your name?"
"Hehe, a mercenary is a mercenary, with no knowledge at all," Archmaester Perestan sneered, "not even Targaryen. You know, go back and read more."
"Targaryen?" Bronn was still blank.
A red-haired soldier behind him reminded in a low voice: "Boss, this is probably Princess Rhaenys, Prince Rhaegar's younger sister."
"Jyck you fool, Prince Rhaegar's younger Sister was killed by Tywin who fell on the wall." Another soldier said.
Dany...
Is oneself just so unknown at Westeros?
White Cloak couldn't take it any longer, stepped forward and said, "This is King Aerys' daughter, Queen Daenerys Your Majesty."
Then he couldn't help but ask: " Haven't you heard about Slaver's Bay Dragon Queen?"
"Oh, so..." Bronn suddenly, embarrassed said with a smile, "Your Majesty, please forgive me, I've been long I haven't left Fiefdom, Maester is no good, the news is a little blocked, I don't know you have called back to Westeros."
