Chapter 623 Iron Throne (middle)Back when Daenerys landed on the Red Keep while riding Drogon In the west courtyard, Igor had already arrived.
He didn't rush up to claim credit, but slowed down and used the crowd of people in the field and the commotion caused when the Black Dragon landed to cover oneself, and successfully avoided attracting the attention of the Queen. After talking with Grey Worm, she walked towards the Throne Room, only to be followed along with a sigh of relief.
The reason for this is because I guessed the plot wrong again.
A moment ago with the soldiers hurried across King's Landing to the Red Keep, and up the straight up Aegon's High Hill, Igor saw the siege equipment that had arrived but not assembled. , the friendly troops who had already arrived but rested on the roadside in small groups... and the light pink city wall of Red Keep that had neither bombardment nor battle marks, nor was it wrapped in monstrous flames.
The biggest trophy that the little Queen longed for was actually obtained by her intact before the oneself arrived!
How is this possible?
Igor was relieved after a little thought.
This is just a civil war, an ordinary (at least in recent years) change of power, not some foreign Race Invasion of total destruction.
Stannis has already made up his mind to die and expects oneself to protect his wife and daughter. Naturally, he will not issue a stupid order to burn both jade and stone and burn Red Keep or King's Landing to the ground.
As for the group of left-behind golden robes who were abandoned by their old masters, they hoped that they would be willing to give their lives to fight the Queen's army to the end without even getting an order... Obviously it is also whimsical. .
Thinking about this, the ending in front of me seems unexpected but reasonable.
The good news is that since the enemy admits defeat so openly, the Queen's resentment against his survivors may be a little less; the bad thing is that Celis and Celine's mother and daughter did not send to persuade them to surrender. The usefulness of the army, that oneself persuaded Daenerys to keep their lives one less reason.
Because I was not sure how the Queen would react to his decision to protect Stannis' wife and daughter, Igor deliberately let her enter the Throne Room, thinking—when she watched Iron, whom she had been thinking about for more than ten years. Throne, after having tasted the joy of victory and the consolation of getting what you want, it may be easier to get good results before making suggestions.
With a touch of unease, Igor stepped into the familiar and unfamiliar throne room.
He remembered the last time oneself entered the building, the trial of Janos Slynt, the Lord Commander of King Robert's garrison. On the same day, judges, witnesses, criminals and audiences were all available in this hall, and there was also a good show in which the chief logistics officer of Night's Watch refused to join the Legion, but the most important Iron Throne was given a huge curtain. Cover, so that he, the transmigrator, can't see the first side.
And today, the scene is completely reversed: Nuoda's hall is empty and messy, except for Queen and Unsullied who stepped into it, there is no one else, but in the boundless loneliness and the garbage all over the floor. , the legendary Iron Throne stood upright at the end of the vestibule as if it had never changed, and seemed to continue to stand like this until the end of time.
Unsullied, the gatekeeper, recognized the identity of the person who came, and gave way to allow him to pass alone. Following the Queen, Igor also entered the throne room.
Having mixed feelings and completely different thoughts from Daenerys, Igor only glanced at Iron Throne before turning his attention back to the person: the former, no matter how towering, majestic and shocking, was just a dead thing. The woman who was walking up to Level 1 with her back to the door was the trouble that oneself had to concentrate on to deal with.
After three clean victories, Daenerys, with blood jurisprudence and mighty power, has recaptured the capital of the Seven Kingdoms and the Red Keep, taking an important piece of the puzzle: actual control of the Crownlands and the resulting And Sheng's nominal legitimacy is one step closer to complete victory.
But as the dust settles on this important battle, a series of questions are coming one after another.
The handling of the fake king's wife and daughter is just one of the troubles Igor has caused. In addition, he has not forgotten that oneself is also burdened with another heavier burden: the "true" of the Winterfell poisoning case. fierce".
Disagreement over the previous matter, at worst a quarrel, affecting a bit of his personal relationship with the Queen... but if Daenerys can't give Daenerys an account over the deaths of Petyr and Varys , is considered to be incompetent and trivial, and if she gets impatient and transfers the matter to others, then it will cause no end of trouble, and it will make people feel on pins and needles.
…
Following the route the Queen walked to Iron Throne, Igor greeted Grey Worm briefly and stood by his side, looking up at Iron Throne Daenerys, who was full of energy, high-spirited and vigorous, made a face full of relief and pride, while thinking secretly in his heart: in what order should he report to her about Stannis' death and oneself's decision to protect his survivors. Asked about the progress of the investigation into the poisoning case, and how to properly respond.
With his mind racing, Daenerys sat down as he watched.
"Oh—"
A short, high-pitched exclamation pulled Night's Watch back to reality from the thought of weaving lines. With a pained expression, he looked towards his palm—what else could it be if he wasn't scratched?
Grey Worm was still stunned, but Igor had already set off first, dashing forward, two steps up the Iron Throne stairs, and quickly came to Queen's side.
Daenerys has stood up from the throne, standing on the small steel platform, right hand holding left hand, staring blankly at oneself's bleeding wound, even his body Trembling slightly.
The wound wasn't big, and she wasn't so tender that she couldn't bear the injury and bleeding. Compared with the slight physical pain, the real blow came from the spirit, from the potential message conveyed by this injury.
It has long been rumored that the Iron Throne will rebel against an unwise monarch. Daenerys' father "Mad King" was often cut, and "Maegor the Cruel" was directly stabbed to death on the throne - oneself was only scratched when he sat on the throne for the first time, is it possible that means , oneself will not be a qualified Queen?
While thinking about it, a black silhouette suddenly approached, and it was Igor who rushed up from below and came to her side. The man's speed was so fast that even though he was well-intentioned, Dany was slightly taken aback when he was absent-minded. The space at the top of the steps was so narrow, she subconsciously retreated half step, her heel hit an obstacle, and she was about to fall back to the throne to open two more openings, but her waist was immediately tightly embraced by a strong hand, The injured left hand was also grabbed, and the wound was covered with a cloud of moist warmth...
She lifted the head with wide eyes, and found that the other party was actually sucking oneself's wound with her mouth? !
