Chapter 424
Westeros has two people that Dany can't see through.
The first is Stannis.
Everyone said that he was tenacious, upright, just, responsible, and uphold his duty as a minister and a ruler.
Through a few days of contact, Dany also found that the guy is indeed hard-headed, rigid in thinking, and strong in character. He has a bottom line than most nobles in Seven Kingdoms.
More importantly, Second Stag fell into such a field, and there are many nobles who are loyal to him, the nobles of Stormlands, the nobles of Reach, and the bannermen who belong to Dragonstone.
The most typical example is Onion Knight Davos.
Onion Knight can be said to be the last Knight with true Knight spirit after Aerys.
During Robert's reign, the Onion Knight was the only bright spot among the rotten Westeros Knights.
Loyalty, fearless, trustworthy, sincere, great intelligence may appear to be stupidity, respect for honor, dedication...
Then, the Onion Knight fully trusts and is loyal to Stannis.
This doesn't mean that Second Stag has the same Knight spirit as Onion Knight. But at least there are certain qualities about Second Stag that make him charismatic.
But, Second Stag kills his brother, Second Stag blood sacrifice R'hllor. Facing the Dragon Queen who rode alone to the Wall, his inner shadow began to stir.
Actually, just killing the younger brother alone will never clear it up.
Second Stag seems to be schizophrenic, and Dany can't figure it out.
Another man shrouded in mist...half man, is The Spider Varys.
Dany doesn't know what he wants to do, what he wants.
According to the plot of Game of Thrones' collapsed final season, Varys wants peace.
He always stood by the people of Westeros, keeping the Seven Kingdoms stable by the strength of oneself.
Mad King went crazy, he betrayed Mad King and turned to Robert, who could lead the Seven Kingdoms to peace and tranquility; Robert declined, he turned to Lannister again; Joffrey and Cersei were madder than Mad King, and he turned to Lannister again. Go to the cold stove for Daenerys.
Then, when he saw Daenerys burn the reluctant Westeros nobles with Dragonflame, he also found that she also awakened Mad Blood, unfit to be on Iron Throne, unworthy to be King of the Seven Kingdoms.
And then, he plans to unite with Jon Snow, get rid of Queen, and support Jon Snow in the upper position...
In the end, he died.
As a result of betraying Daenerys, dying under Dragonflame.
And Varys' death is yet another example of Daenerys' brutality.
At the same time, the dead Varys was almost whitewashed as Saint in "Game of Thrones", he did not have King in his eyes, only the interests of the people, who is good to the people, who can make Seven Kingdoms become Better, whoever he supports.
Even, Varys became the leading figure who weakened the monarchy, denied the divine authority of the monarchy, and advocated the theory of democracy and equality.
what the fuck!
According to Dany's idea, the plot of "Game of Thrones" is too far from the real world, the plot is untrustworthy, but the characters' personalities should not change, you can refer to it.
So, Varys' character reference to Game of Thrones?
Unfortunately, she couldn't.
First of all, Varys are crooked nuts.
He is a Lys person and grew up in Free City, why does he care about the life and death of the Westeros people?
Is Westeros the center of the world, the beacon of civilization?
hehe, on the level of science and technology, on the development of culture, on the historical background, on the political system, Westeros is not as good as Volantis, not as good as Braavos.
The center of a fart civilization.
This is not reasonable.
Secondly, Varys once provoked the relationship between Rhaegar and Aerys, making Aerys suspicious of the King Crown Prince - there were indeed some nobles who quietly discussed launching the Great Council and planned to retire the increasingly crazy Aerys early, but Rhaegar refused. .
Varys' provocation has forced Prince Rhaegar of the 'Wise Man' to stay away from the court and not be able to participate in the administration of King's Landing.
The nation is crumbling, and Targaryen's rule is in jeopardy.
Finally, Varys is nothing like a 'Targaryen loyalist' when it comes to dealing with Viserys and Daenerys.
A true loyal minister should be like Ser Willem Darry, raise the princess and Prince well, give them a peaceful and prosperous life, teach them etiquette, reason, knowledge, and martial skills.
Rather than half-living like a stray dog: while transmitting the news to Robert, arranging for Assassin to assassinate two siblings, and secretly arranging for someone to rush before Assassin and save them.
After going back and forth like this, it is no surprise that Second Brother Vis, who was once gentle and jade-like, went crazy, and Little Princess, who was once lively and lovely, got autism.
Well, Dany's second brother, Viserys, used to be a promising young man who was sensible and elegant, caring for his younger sister, and knowledgeable.
The former Red Keep Instructor Willem Darry, who brought up Prince very well, was almost the second Rhaegar.
However, no matter how good a person is, starting from the age of 13 and being hunted down to the age of 23, the family "Mad Blood" will be awakened.
Last last, look at Westeros now, is it better than Aerys?
Clearly not.
Ethics are broken, the economy is in decline, the administration is paralyzed, the people are struggling...
Westeros today is hundreds of blocks worse than it was in Mad King's time.
It's still the old saying, no matter how crazy Mad King is, he won't bother the country or the people of Old Teng.
He is also very thrifty.
The treasury is abundant, and every household has surplus grain.
...
"You've warned me many times, Varys untrustworthy," Dany said.
The old Aemon> nodded, and sighed: "Although I am in Wall, I have always been concerned about King's Landing. If Varys slandered in front of you, the wrong spring will not even happen.""You think Young Griff, is it Aegon?" Dany asked again.
"This..." Aemon was hesitant at first, and then his expression became certain: "At least there is an 80% chance that Aegon is real, even the legendary Child of Prophecy!"
"Uh, Old Master, are you acclimatized, your brain..."
"No, Astapor has a warm climate, not much like Oldtown, which is suitable for people like me old fogey.”
Aemon shook his head and recounted what Rhaegar had written to him to tell him that Aegon was born with an alien planet.
"If the prophecy is true, one of Rhaegar's bloodlines must survive, and I guess he's Aegon!" concluded the old Maester solemnly vowed.
Dany looked at him strangely.
Old Master really guessed right, Rhaegar really has a posthumous child left, and his bloodline is indeed Child of Prophecy.
But he's not Young Griff, but Jon Snow on the Wall!
"Old Master, I want to ask you something."
Dany thought about it and decided to give a little spoiler, lest the old man really dig his heart out for the unidentified Young Griff.
"You really think Rhaegar kidnapped Lyanna?" she asked.
"This...is considered abduction." The old Aemon face changed, hesitantly said: "With Rhaegar's character, I didn't believe he would do that, but it's a fact, it is known !"
Dany shook the head and said: "Rhaegar is handsome, noble, melancholy, gentle in character, martial skill is strong, can play and sing, recite poetry and draw, Seven Kingdoms Maiden is not bad. I love him.
Lyanna, a little girl from the north who has never seen the world, can stand the temptation of a top grade male charm?
Rhaegar is really interested in a woman, she needs it Rob?
My second brother Viserys, at the craziest of times, would only lie to a woman with a good skin and those rhetoric that no one would believe.
Forcing a woman , the grade is too low, could it be something Rhaegar did?"
"Could it be that they are in love with each other?" Aemon snarled.
“Let me ask you again, how long have Rhaegar and Lyanna been together?” Dany said.
"Nearly a year has passed since I kidnapped Lyanna and reappeared in front of the world."
Aemon was stunned after saying this, his face gradually showing a complex expression of shock and absurdity .
After a while, he said in a dry voice: "You mean, they... may have an illegal child?!"
Dany shrugged and said with a smile indifferently : "A male and a female together alone, together for a year, you can't look at the stars and the moon every day, right?
Actually, I'm very confused, why no one in Seven Kingdoms ever doubted the illegal child. , you are all brainwashed by Three-Eyed Crow?"
"This," old Aemon suddenly realized, "this is really possible, if the illegalimate child is Child of Prophecy, in order to protect Child of Prophecy's Identity, Three-Eyed Crow may have blocked his news."
Looking at the old man's face "It's not that we are too stupid, it's all because of Three-Eyed Crow distorting our consciousness", Dany's mouth twitched.
"Don't say Three-Eyed Crow, even if ten True Gods work together, it is impossible to influence the thinking of millions of people in Westeros." She said ill-humoredly.
"Then why do we all didn't expect illegitimate child? Not everyone is stupid, right?" Old Aemon retorted.
You're a fool!
Dany wanted to say this.
old man's expression became solemn, said solemnly: "The more you think about it, the worse the weak spot is. Rhaegar should have three White Cloak, 'White Bull' Gerold Hightower, 'Sword of the Morning' 'Arthur Dayne, Oswell Whent Ser of Harrenhal.
But when he showed up at King's Landing, he was alone, leaving White Cloak in the Dorne Tower of Joy to look after..."
p>His expression changed dramatically, and he uttered a word incredulously: "Lyanna!"
"Rhaegar asked three White Cloaks to look after Lyanna, why? And Eddard Stark, who took people to the Tower of Joy looked for younger sister, but only brought back Lyanna's body, White Cloak all died in battle, but Eddard remained silent about the battle."
"How did Lyanna die?" Aemon slowly closed His eyes, after thinking for a while, slowly opened again, blue's eyes flashed an incredible rays of light, his lips trembled, and he said, "Jon Snow! When Eddard came back from Dorne, in addition to Lyanna's body, he also brought back. An illegitimate child.
Lyanna died in childbirth, and the child belonged to Rhaegar!"
"Seven Hells!" Jon has an inexplicable intimacy; no wonder, Jon's biological mother has always been a mystery, and Eddard Stark never mentions the woman, or even says her name to Jon.
It's not normal, it's not reasonable , why didn't we suspect it before?
A handsome man and a grown woman have been together for a year, and they are both healthy and both have desires for each other.
What can they do , what can be done?
It is as it should be by rights to give birth to an illegal child, why has it never been thought of?"
"Three-Eyed Crow, Brynden Rivers It's all him, it's him who controls everything in secret." Old Aemon gnashi ng teeth said.
Dany was taken aback by the old Aemon's reaction.
She didn't expect Old Master to instantly restore the truth with just a few hints, during which she didn't even give any more hints.
It was completely guessed by the wisdom and experience of the old man.
Did Old Master's IQ soar after leaving Westeros?
"Dany, did you already know Jon's identity?" The old Aemon lifted the head suddenly, looking at Dany.
