Chapter 5 The down-and-out noble

Early the next morning, Illyrio found Aegon, who had dark circles under his eyes.

Naturally, he already knew what happened last night, and he even thought that Aegon couldn't stand Daenerys' temptation, so he couldn't wait to sneak into Daenerys' room that night.

However, he didn't think there was anything wrong with Aegon's behavior. At most, the young dragon didn't know how to control his desires. After all, in his eyes, Aegon would definitely marry Daenerys.

Therefore, all the news from last night was banned from being spread.

"Your Majesty, maybe you need to go to the port to inspect your guards and count the gold and jewelry in the merchant ships, so that you can buy enough Unsullied!"

Illyrio knew that Aegon was going to buy some Unsullied and start a revolution, so he spent most of his savings over the years.

Before becoming the governor of Pentos, Illyrio was a poor assassin until he met Varys (now the intelligence chief of the Seven Kingdoms) - a beggar who made a living by begging.

The two became friends and started a new business together - Varys stole things from thieves, and Illyrio gave them to their owners in exchange for reward.

Soon people who lost valuables in Pentos knew to look for them to recover their lost property.

In addition, the thieves of Pentos also came to them, half of them wanted to kill them, but these people failed, and the other half wanted to help them sell the stolen goods.

So later they can run the market without having to steal the thieves' things.

The two of them accumulated a lot of wealth through this.

Illyrio gradually became the governor of Pentos. Although Pentos has multiple governors, his position still represents very powerful power and wealth.

The port of Pentos has prepared 10 merchant ships and fifty strong slave soldiers.

"Your Majesty, this is Belwas. He is the strongest slave here. If anyone wants to steal your treasury, he will cut off their hands for you.

He will kill all your enemies for you!"

Illyrio said as he introduced Aegon to a large eunuch with brown skin.

He has a strong body, with arms as thick as tree trunks, a broad chest, and a big belly. His chest and belly are covered with scars. That is because he always gives his opponents a chance to die before they die.

Give him a knife.

He once fought in the arena of Meereen and earned the title "Strong Belwas". Legend has it that he never lost a match.

Aegon's eyes lit up when he saw the strong man in front of him. This guy was definitely one of the top fighters. In the original book, this guy was a flexible fat man, and he even pooped on the enemy after winning.

"I am willing to serve you, Your Majesty!" Belwas knelt down on one knee to express his submission.

Daenerys had a peaceful dream. She dreamed about the red-painted wooden door when she was a child. The kind old man kept calling her "little princess" affectionately. Then she dreamed about the blue-haired girl.

young people.

When Daenerys woke up, Aegon had already left. She glanced at the chair next to her before lifting the quilt covering her body.

If everything goes well, today should be a new beginning.

Daenerys walked to the window and opened the door window. The blue sky outside the house came into view, the sea in the distance was sparkling, and a group of children were playing at the foot of the city wall. At this moment, she wanted to be as unrestrained as them, forgetting the past and the past.

future.

"Your Highness Princess!" The maid outside the door opened the door and wanted to help Daenerys dress.

"E, oh ​​no, where is the king?"

"Your Majesty has gone to the port, and the Governor is asking him to count the troops."

Daenerys heard this and looked towards the port in the distance. Illyrio's courtyard could overlook the entire Pentos, so she still found the group of sculpture-like black spots among the chaotic crowd.

"I want to go see it too!"

Aegon, who was at the port, had already looked at the jewelry Illyrio had prepared for him. His only doubt now was how many Unsullied people these items could buy.

Although he didn't think about actually buying it, if he couldn't bring all the Unsullied to the square, the rebellion would probably cause big problems.

Because the Unsullied only know how to obey and never resist.

"If possible, I think we should ask for more gold." Aegon turned around and said.

"Your Majesty, I will prepare more merchant ships in the next two days, but I don't recommend too many, otherwise it will easily lead to pirate robbery.

And our current number of mercenaries is not enough! I believe I can buy six thousand Unsullied with the jewels from these ten merchant ships."

Only then did Aegon realize how much money this guy gave him. In the original book, this guy only gave Daenerys three merchant ships, which was only enough to buy two thousand Unsullied.

Sure enough, there is still a difference between closeness and distance!

"His Majesty!"

Daenerys's voice came from behind.

Aegon turned around and realized that the other party had put on a lavender robe today. She looked very outstanding. Even Illyrio flashed a trace of desire when he looked at her.

"I heard that you are going to Slaver's Bay?" Daenerys walked forward and talked to Aegon.

The most beautiful woman in the legend flashed her violet eyes, and her smile made the mercenaries present jealous of Aegon.

But these people all know that a woman like Daenerys is not someone they can touch.

"Yes, I want to buy an army so that I can return to Westeros and kill those usurpers! Dany, you will come with me!"

Although technically speaking he also has Targaryen blood, as a descendant of a Targaryen bastard (his real mother is a descendant of an illegitimate son), Aegon doesn't know whether he can hatch dragons, so he plans to bring Daenerys into the family as well.

Bring it.

If you can't do it yourself, the Mother of Dragons can do it!

Daenerys has now let down her guard against Aegon: "Then do I need to prepare anything?"

"No need, just take the maid and leave with me."

"Your Majesty, a knight is looking for you!"

While several people were chatting, the attendant sent another message, and then they saw a dark-skinned, thick-haired, but bald middle-aged man walking over.

"Your Majesty, Knight Jorah Mormont is willing to serve you!"

Although the armor on his body is a bit thick, Jorah's movements are still very smooth, and there is no sense of hindrance at all.

Aegon looked at the Dragon Mother's number one licker in front of him and then realized the complete plan of Illyrio and the others.

Jorah Mormont came to the Dragon Mother's side to be a traitor in order to obtain pardon, but Varys (the intelligence chief) still passed the information about Daenerys to the usurper Robert.

You know, Varys and Illyrio are on the same side. Illyrio helped Dragon Mother regain her kingdom, while Varys betrayed Dragon Mother and let an assassin kill her.

This is quite contradictory.

So the logic of the original work is correct.

Illyrio, these two scheming bitches, just want to kill the dragon mother, and then let Khal Drogo take his Dothraki cavalry to Westeros for revenge, so as to weaken the strength of the Seven Kingdoms and assist Aegon to rise to power.

.

It’s just that they didn’t expect that Jorah Mormont would fall directly in love with Daenerys.

Only then did Illyrio's plan come to nothing.

"Your Majesty, please allow me to introduce to you. This Knight Jorah was once the bravest knight in the Seven Kingdoms. He also won the championship in the tourney!"

Seeing Aegon's hesitation, Illyrio immediately helped explain.

Aegon did not comment on his words, but Jon Connington, who had been staying beside him, finally spoke up: "Are you a knight who fights for the usurper Robert?"

"Your Majesty, this Jorah knight made some mistakes in the Seven Kingdoms. They actually want to chop off his head, so they want to pursue you, the real dragon."

Jorah Mormont actually sold a group of poachers who stole his territory as slaves, but in Westeros, slave trading is a serious crime.

So his lord, Ned Stark, Warden of the North, wanted to take him to Winterfell and behead him.

Regarding this judgment, Illyrio only felt that the laws of the Seven Kingdoms were too trivial and that property was sacred and inviolable.

And Jorah Mormont now becomes his test for Aegon.

He was not worried at all that the information provided by Jorah would reach Robert's hands.

"Knight Jorah, I now designate you as the Princess Guards of Princess Daenerys. You are responsible for protecting her safety and fighting for her until the last moment."

"Your Majesty, I will always be at your disposal!"

After Jorah Mormont finished speaking, he raised his head and looked at Daenerys next to him. At this moment, he fell hopelessly in love with the young princess.
