Chapter 454 Otto's guess is so accurate!
The dragon's wrath reappeared and spread rapidly throughout the seven kingdoms.
The King's Landing.
Rumors spread among the people about how many Dornishmen the crown prince had killed and how many battles he had won.
The most chaotic Flea Bottom, the orphans described Longshan in an exaggerated way.
The latest theory is that countless Dornish bodies are buried under the Dragon Mountain to suppress the resentful souls of those who resisted.
Common people do not distinguish between true and false, and spread falsehoods.
They don't know how the Three Women's Kingdom War broke out or when it will end.
It is even less clear why Dorne rebelled.
They only know a little.
Rhaegar of Targaryen was brave and capable of fighting, and Prince Martell of Dorne bowed to him.
Dorne finally surrenders to the Iron Throne.
The seven kingdoms of Westeros are all included in the territory of the Targaryen dynasty.
Red Fort.
The king's palace.
A group of imperial ministers stood guard in front of the door, looking inside through the open door.
Viserys' face was pale, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he lay unconscious on the bed.
“Viserys, are you okay?”
Allison sat on the edge of the bed, wiping out a wet towel and wiping his sweat, while calling softly: "Wake up, your ministers are waiting for you."
Viserys frowned, as if he disliked the noise.
Allison was very worried and couldn't help complaining: "I told you not to go on an expedition, but you just didn't listen."
After muttering for a while, he put away the basin and got up.
Before leaving, he made a helpless request: "Get well soon, the kingdom needs you."
After saying that, he went out with the basin in hand.
Outside the door.
Leonor looked solemn and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, there are no signs of recovery yet?"
"No."
Allison shook his head and sighed: "Since returning to King's Landing, he has been drowsy. He has been in a coma more than he has been awake."
“This is not good news.” Leonor frowned tightly.
A family cannot be without a master for a day, and a country cannot be without a king for a day.
His Majesty is unconscious and the royal council cannot function normally.
Otto closed the door and changed the topic: "Your Majesty needs to cultivate himself. If there is anything, we will hold a royal meeting to discuss it."
Allison reacted at this time and told Kingsguard Laurent and Sir Stephen to keep an eye on the palace.
Seeing this, Leonor couldn't force it, so he used the topic as a pretext: "Then move to the council hall and invite Princess Rhaenyra."
Allison said in astonishment: "Rhaenyra is seven months pregnant, so it's best not to disturb her."
Early after Viserys was escorted back to King's Landing, Rhaenyra returned to King's Landing from Dragonstone.
Leonor did not answer and looked at Archmaester Orville.
Owell is very obedient: "The princess's fetal position is in good condition, and there is no problem in handling government affairs on a daily basis."
Allison frowned slightly and heard the implication.
Handle government affairs!
Viserys was recuperating in bed, while Rhaegar was on an expedition to Dorne.
Rhaenyra's status as the eldest princess was overshadowed by her role as the queen.
After thinking about it, Allison couldn't find a reason to refute, so he swallowed: "Okay, let's do it."
After speaking, he turned around and left, giving an excuse to change clothes.
Otto nodded kindly towards Leonor and followed his daughter's pace.
Soon, the father and daughter walked away.
Leonor and others looked at each other and headed towards the parliament hall.
On the way, they were talking quietly.
"Your Majesty is in poor health, which is not a good thing for the country and the people."
“Be careful, your Majesty will get well.”
“After my diagnosis, His Majesty was overly frightened, causing post-traumatic syndrome. His body is not seriously injured, just like a small cold.”
“A Targaryen cannot be cold, nor can he be unconscious.”
Leonor said the last sentence in a displeased tone.
Ovel stopped and said seriously: "This is the result of physical and mental co-creation, and it cannot be cured by medicinal herbs."
He doesn't like anyone questioning his medical skills.
“I'm sorry, I didn't doubt you.”
Leonor was aware of the excess.
“It doesn't matter,” Orville said.
The Melos incident was so appalling that it inevitably put a filter on the position of Grand Maester.
Leonor sighed softly, and after an inner struggle, he gritted his teeth and said: "Everyone, His Majesty has been unconscious. We should have prepared early."
“What preparations?” Jaspie cheered up.
Leonor glanced at him and said frankly: "Viserys is my majesty and a friend of mine for many years. I don't want him to be in danger."
After a pause, he added: "If one day he is unable to handle government affairs and even falls asleep, there must be an heir to take over the Iron Throne immediately."
"Wait a moment."
Linman interrupted, surprise appeared on the old man's face, and he said: "We have the best prince, and he is in Dorne."
“Prince Rhaegar has made great achievements in battle, and no one dares to touch his bad luck.”
Jaspie shrugged, laughing to himself first.
He was almost targeted by the crown prince.
“I understand what you want to say, but these days are different.”
Leonor looked serious: "Braavos is peeping at the Narrow Sea, and the remnants of the Three Daughters Kingdom are watching eagerly. Now Dorne is in rebellion and the kingdom is in chaos. It is a time when accidents are easy to happen."
As soon as these words came out, several people fell silent for an instant.
Outstanding crown princes are not difficult to find, and there were only two Targaryens in the previous generation.
pity.
One was assassinated in the camp, and the other died of abdominal distension.
Leonor expressed his point of view: "I propose to recall the crown prince to ensure a smooth succession process to the throne."
The words of the country's scholars are to seek stability and weight.
Linman hesitated for a moment: "The prince's conquest of Dorne has already begun the second round of Dragon's Wrath. How could he give up so easily?"
Leonor said: "Lord Corlys is sitting in Sunspear City, and there are also Prince Daemon and Princess Rhaenys. Dorne will not be active for long."
“It won't work.”
Linman still felt that something was wrong and said sternly: "The conquest of Dorne must be completed by the crown prince and cannot be done by human hands."
Leonor: “If something happens to your Majesty, the prince must be there as soon as possible.”
“You think there are people out there who are delusional?”
Linman's sluggish thinking suddenly became clear and sharp.
Leonor did not speak, but expressed his attitude.
A few people were silent again and exchanged glances. Theoretically, it is impossible to prevent the crown prince from succeeding to the throne.
I am afraid that someone will lose their mind and do something stupid that will tarnish the royal family.
It's been a while.
Thormund, who had been silent all this time, broke the silence and said with a smile: "Everyone, your Majesty is just sleeping. There is no physical problem. Maybe we are making a fuss out of a molehill."
“This is the preparation you should have!”
Leonor said anxiously.
Tormund's expression calmed down, his eyes suddenly turned white, he looked directly at Leonor, and his voice was wet: "I am the intelligence chief, there will be no accidents in the Red Castle."
Step forward, his skinny body is in stark contrast to the opponent's bloated figure.
Leonor swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his scalp numbing as those pale eyes stared at him.
Tormund touched the Valyrian steel badge on his chest and asked: "Or do you think that Prince Rhaegar, known as the Young Dragon King, is really just an ordinary person."
"this…"
Leonor was speechless.
Of course he is not an ordinary person. He has never seen a more mysterious person than the crown prince.
Hand out the scarce Valyrian steel weapons one by one.
Repair the black dragonstone in Harrenhal and you can create it with just a few spells.
Latest news, the crown prince cast a giant dragonstone peak at the original site of Yronwood City, known as the Targaryen Dragon King Altar.
Tormund's face was stiff, exuding a dangerous aura, and he said: “If anything unexpected happens in King's Landing, I will notify the prince to turn back as soon as possible.”
As early as a month ago, Rhaegar sent him a message.
Unless the sky falls, don't stop him from continuing the dragon's wrath.
The Red Castle is open to wind on all sides, and its little birds have built nests.
Leonor was speechless and nodded helplessly: "It's up to you."
The other party is a confidant of the crown prince and a weird shapechanger, so he is worthy of trust.
The queen's bedroom.
boom!
The door of the room was closed heavily. Allison's face turned red with anger and he sat down on the chair regardless of his appearance.
Humiliation, naked humiliation!
Her three children all fought in Dorne and never failed the Targaryens and the kingdom.
The chamberlains were still wary of her, and brought out the pregnant Rhaenyra to crush her.
Crunch—
The door opened and Otto walked in.
Allison knew who it was without looking back, so he poured out a glass of red wine and took a sip.
Otto sat silently across from her, looked at his daughter with deep eyes, and said: "A fool will get angry and internal conflict, but a wise man should take precautions at this time."
Allison was stunned when he heard this, and then said angrily: "Viserys is not dead yet, he will wake up sooner or later."
“No one in this world is 100% sure that they will see the sunrise the next day.”
Otto was calm and composed, as if he was talking about a trivial matter.
Alisson was shaken and hesitated: "What can I do?"
Otto smiled slightly and explained patiently: "We can't touch the position of prince. Leonor and others should be discussing monitoring you and me at this time."
He knows his colleague very well.
Far-reaching wisdom and reliable work.
However, this kind of person has one characteristic: he lacks quick wit and is impatient when things happen.
Allison sat upright and listened to his father's opinions.
Otto took out a separate cup from the tea tray and said seriously: "Mond sent me a message that the Dornish people were harassing Qingting Island and asked Rhaegar for help, but the other party refused."
"how come?"
Allison looked anxious and asked: "Dorne was not plowed by the so-called dragon's wrath. How could they still have the courage to peek into the old town?"
“There are also Aegon and Aemond, and Mond is their great-uncle.”
Otto clasped his fingers lightly and said calmly: "As far as I know, Starfall City and Bramont City were burned by Rhaegar himself with a dragon. Compared with Hellgate Castle and other places, the two castles were only burned and scattered. The defense strength of the two families."
In the first round of Dragon's Wrath, Dorne was restricted from having a large east-west span, and soldiers could not follow the dragon into battle.
Remote castles like Sandstone City were directly burned to the ground.
In hinterland castles such as Vance City, not only will the castles be destroyed, but the rebellious nobles will also be captured and taken to Yronwood City.
Dulu Xingcheng and Bramont City, even if they are located in more remote locations, should not be just a formality.
Allison suddenly said: "Rega did it on purpose?"
“Eight or nine are inseparable from ten.”
Otto remained calm and analyzed: "Dane and the Brymond family live along the river and take a boat directly to the Summer Sea. Due to the terrifying dragon, the first one to take revenge is Old Town."
“There is something very wrong with the Dane family. They have been eyeing Old Town from the beginning. The scout ship entered the Qingting Island coastline unimpeded and repeatedly explored the Old Town harbor.”
“I knew he would take revenge!” Allison panted.
He added: "What should we do? We can't just watch the old town be destroyed."
Otho: "Recall Aegon and ask him to go to Oldtown and take control of the remaining troops of House Hightower."
“Aegon?” Allison hesitated.
Otto nodded: "There is also Aemond, who was transferred back to King's Landing in the name of being young to win over the nobles of the Stormlands."
“The two of them…”
Allison was too embarrassed to speak and rolled his eyes: "Those two boys are like a mouse to a cat when they see Rhaegar. What responsibility can they have?"
Since the marriage, Aegon no longer contacted his mother.
Aemond occasionally sent letters, expressing admiration for Rhaegar in his words, almost forgetting that he was his biological brother from the same mother.
Allison thought for a while and asked doubtfully: "Why not transfer Helena back? She is still a girl."
The Wrath of the Dragon is inhumane, and she can accept the participation of her two sons.
Helena is a little girl. Which family will dare to marry her in the future?
Otto glanced at his daughter and asked, "You really don't know the reason?"
Allison was startled.
Suddenly, it occurred to me that my daughter wanted to step in as a third party.
She seemed to be saying at that time, was it successful?
Otto did not pursue the matter and stood up and said: "Mrs. Jane in the valley is suspected to be pregnant. Her belly is beginning to be unable to be hidden. Someone has been planning to bring happiness to everyone."
“The Dornish troops came to Oldtown, which gave him the opportunity to control the dragon into Oldtown and use coercion and inducement.”
“The seven gods are above, and those who disobey the will of the church will be punished by God.”
Otto had a profound meaning and pushed the door open.
“Think carefully, I will attend the imperial meeting later.”
Allison was stunned.
boom!
The door closed with a soft sound.
Half a sound.
Allison suddenly came to his senses, hurriedly picked up the flask and poured a glass of wine, and said as if he was frightened: "How dare he, that is a contract signed by His Majesty King Renrui."
His Majesty King Renrui, that is the most perfect king in her mind.
Give her honor, confidence, and outstanding palace status.
“No! No one should question His Majesty King Renrui.”
Allison mumbled, picked up the wine glass and took a swig.
And Helena, she must be involved in Rhaegar's plan.
This rebellious woman!
