Chapter 834
The Battle of Winterfell is over, and all support for Winterfell has left.
Dany followed Second Stag and took the maid to the Wall to heal Bran's spine, then set off for Slaver's Bay.
Little Green and Little White will remain at Dragonstone, and the Wyvern Legion will be responsible for sending back the Southerners who support Winterfell.
Second day morning, Dany moved back into the palace of the Meereen Great Pyramid.
It's obviously morning, but the sky in Meereen is like the evening at five o'clock in the winter.
Without the lights, the room will be dark. You can only walk on the street with a lantern.
More terrifying than the darkness is the cold and the feathery snow.
"I've lived almost forty years, and it's the first time I've seen such a cold day, so much snow." Earl Chainbreaker shivered in his thick fur coat.
There is no fireplace in the top hall of the pyramid, because at the beginning of the design, the pyramid did not consider the facilities for winter.
"Earl, you should go to Westeros, go to Winterfell to see, that's called cold, cold can't even light a fire." Jhiqui said.
"This is Long Night, the world is eroded by cold and darkness." Dany turned to the little black girl, "Can Meereen's heating be guaranteed?"
"There were hundreds of thousands of people before. There are now 60,000 or 70,000 prisoners in prison, and when Long Night arrives, they can’t farm, so I will arrange for them to go to the northern forest to cut wood and burn charcoal.” Missandei said.
"What about the common people? The charcoal must not have their share." Dany asked again.
As soon as she finished speaking, she burst into laughter, "Long Night is coming, and I haven't even made a public appearance in front of the public. They are probably confused and flustered.
With firewood. Compared with food, stabilizing people's hearts is the top priority.
Missandei, please arrange, tomorrow I will go to the manor outside the city for a field trip themed 'Meereen under Long Night'; three days later, I will Published a speech on 'Slaver's Bay's Long Night' at Plaza of the People."
"You're right, even I, recently, are a little bit not knowing what to do, about the future Dazed." Lyra, the redhead sitting across from Earl Chainbreaker, said with a bitter smile.
“Your Majesty, how did the Battle of Winterfell turn out? Did it fall?” said the old Aemon worriedly.
If the Battle of Winterfell accomplishes its stated goal—killing the Others King, it's not just the Dragon Queen and the two maids who will be back.
"Not a failure..." Dany took some time to recount her experience in North.
Mainly related to Others.
"The Seven is above, Winterfell is frozen under the iceberg, two thousand meters high..."
Hearing the effect of Forbidden Spell White Frost, Everyone around the conference table turned pale and looked terrified.
"If Cold God comes to Meereen, how can we resist it?" Earl Chainbreaker whispered.
Dany had a weird expression, "Westeros is the front line against the Others. As long as the people of the Seven Kingdoms are still fighting, the Others and Cold God will not cross the Narrow Sea and come all the way to Slaver's Bay."
Dany has a weird expression. p>
Earl Chainbreaker relieved, easily said with a smile: "That's good, that's good! I've heard that there are many Sunset Lands Knights, and with them standing in the front, we can rest easy, just wait for the savior.. ...."
"Your Majesty, are you the savior?" He stared, said curiously.
"I will save the world, but not the savior."
"Isn't saving the world the savior?" Cleon said blankly.
Old Aemon said slowly: "The savior now known to everyone comes from the Asshai prophecy six thousand years ago, and the Queen is not the savior chosen by R'hllor."
"Your Majesty , Since the Winterfell war is over, there is still half a year of adjustment period, why don't you solve Jaen and those Wyrms!" The red-haired Lyra said.
"It's been snowing heavily in the last few days, does Wyrm dare to come out?" Dany asked.
Lyra shook her head and said, "Three days ago, Sun disappeared completely and Meereen started snowing. I don't know if it was because the weather suddenly turned cold or if Jaen was adjusting his guerrilla warfare plan.
before She has been unsuccessful in several raids, and she may have detected the existence of spies.”
In this era, the family of the ordinary person cannot store food for a long time (three years or more), so the In villages farther from the city, public granaries managed by the government are generally built.
That's why Jaen devised a strategy to destroy the granary with Wyrm.
However, the first few actions were not very effective. The burning villages not only emptied houses and food, but also had Wyrmrider ambush sneak attack.
Dragon Queen has more than fifty Wyverns, only forty are sent to Westeros, and the rest are in Meereen, ready to deal with Jaen's Wyrm.
In the half a month before R'hllor and Cold God were in front of Sun, Jaen attacked three villages in total, Wyrm died four, and the cylindrical warehouse for grain destroyed seven or eight , but not a grain of rice was burned.
Even the horse men who acted as postmen outside the village guessed that there was a spy around Jaen.
Indeed, "Prince Leo" arranged for a close follower to leave the Wyrm burrow, leaking Jaen's plans to Meereen.
......
"ahhhh, you, you, you are the Dragon Queen?!!!" The young spy just entered the palace with the Unsullied guards, and pointed to the throne The Dragon Queen cried out in surprise.
"This is Queen Your Majesty, don't be rude!" the red-haired Lyra yelled.
"I, I thought..." The young man wanted to say something, but he met Dragon Queen's doubtful eyes, and immediately knelt on the ground with a puff, and said in a sullen voice, "Queen, forgive me, Umber. Forgive City Lord, I admit the wrong person, the Queen resembles a kind person I once met."
Young fair hair and blue eyes, with obvious Rhoynar characteristics, twenty four-five , barely six feet tall, with a thin, bamboo-like body with a long, exaggerated Zorse face.
Dany stared at him, frowning for a while, before suddenly remembering the identity of the Kneelers.
"You didn't recognize the wrong person, but you used a fake name, so I didn't recognize you immediately." Dany said with a smile.
"Ah, you're really Miss Rhaella, you've become a Queen? Oh no, you used to be a spy in Volantis." The long-faced youth suddenly raised his head, incoherently excited.
"Didn't your name be Kadlik, why did you change your name to 'Dick' now?" Dany said curiously.
This young man is Hathay's coachman whom Dany and Laoba met when they were visiting Volantis.
At that time, Kadlik had a wheel tattoo on his right cheek representing the driver's slave status. Now the tattoo has been cut off, leaving a scar, and even the name has been changed, which led to Dany didn't expect once the coachman.
"Dick is the new name given to me by Prince Leo, he said 'Kadlik' is the mark left on me by the slave-master, which should have been removed together like a tattoo." The long-faced youth said.
Dany's mouth twitched a few times, "That guy seems to be able to get along anywhere...a few words, a new name, and he fooled you."
Kadlik didn't know why, so he just confessed blankly: "Prince Leo said that the Allies have lost, we can't be buried for Priest Jaen, and surrendering is the best choice.
He also accepted me. squire, promised to take me back to the Isle of Elephants after I got out of trouble, and gave me a piece of Fiefdom, a noble daughter as a wife, and twenty elephants.
I said I had a wife, and he gave me a first name and a surname , Dick Tywin."
"he he he..." Dany couldn't help laughing, and old Aemon couldn't help laughing, and the two laughed so much that Dick Tywin below was more and more at a loss.
Laughing for a while, Dany said curiously: "Did you know that I deliberately hid gold coins in the copper plate that day? (ps)"
Dick Tywin's face turned red and red , eyes flickering.
Dany looked thoughtful, the smile on his face disappeared, "You think I made a mistake and you didn't come to me because you were afraid that I would have the money back?"
At Volantis that day When they met, the Hathay husband showed amazing elephant handling skills, and he was very clever, and he was respectful and courteous to the Dragon Queen who went by the pseudonym "Priest Rhaella".
More importantly, he greatly admires the Dragon Queen who liberates the slave.
So Dany decided to give him a chance to deliberately mix five Gold Honors in a handful of Copper Coins when paying for the fare.
She waited days for Kadlik to arrive at the Merchant's House hotel to find her.
No matter what the reason, whether she picks up Jin Bumei, or guesses her intentions smartly, as long as he goes, she will take him away.
Slaver's Bay also has an elephant and can always find a suitable spot for him.
But she never waited for him.
Dick Tywin turned pale, fell to the ground, and pleaded, "Queen Your Majesty, please forgive me!
When I found the Gold Honor in the copper plate, I immediately had two Guess, most likely, you deliberately reward me with gold coins for some purpose; another possibility is that you don't take money seriously, and the gold coins are misplaced in the pocket containing the copper plate.
I know It's time to go back to you, but..."
Dick Tywin put his face on the carpet and choked: "Five Gold Honors can change my destiny, I don't want to be a slave, I want Freedom, you can only marry Dina if you become Free Folk.
I'm afraid, even if the probability is very small, in case you ask me for those five gold coins, I, I..."
p>"Get up." Dany raised his right hand and said softly, "The gold coin is a gift I gave you. You didn't steal or rob it. What's the crime?"
She Really not angry.
The gold coins were sent out by her on her own initiative, and what choice she made was decided by Kadlik oneself, and his choice decided his fate, Dany from start to finish didn't want to get anything from him.
She is simply a gift, and his behavior determines how much she gives him.
Clearly, Kadlik's choice wasn't the best, and she only got five trifling gold coins from her.
Well, although he missed the chance to become Dragon Queen little brother, he is now on the line with dwarf, and he is also lucky to have the promise of Isle of Elephants Fiefdom and 20 elephants.
"How did you get to Slaver's Bay?" Dany asked again when Dick Tywin got up.
"I secretly gave the five gold coins you left me to Dina, Hathay's business was opened by her cousin, who sold me easily, and then she set me free and married me.
My marriage to her is not blessed by her family, but we can feed oneself, I can ride elephants, Dina grew up making meat pies with her mother at 'Kelly's butcher's pie'.
So we used the rest of the money to buy an elephant, a Hathay-turned-roast truck, and sell pies down the street in Volantis.
Those were the happiest days of my life. Time..."
In the end, the young man's face was full of sighs and nostalgia.
"Uncle, Kelly's meat pie..." Dany chewed on these two words, and they seemed to touch a certain memory of hers.
