Chapter 89 Everyone will die

After Quesh also left, Ser Jorah said, "She is right, my queen...Although I don't like her either, but..."

"To be honest, I don't understand her very much." Haiya and Xaro made promises one after another from the first time they saw her dragon, claiming that they were her loyal servants through and through. However, she only got a few words from Kuishi.

A few vague and cryptic words, and she had never seen the woman's face, made her very uneasy.

Remember Mirri Maz Duur, she told herself, remember the treachery. She turned to her bloodriders. "We must remain here one day and remain on guard. No one is allowed to enter without my permission.

The wing on this side, especially these dragons, must be carefully guarded at all times."

"As you command, Khaleesi," Ago said.

"We have only seen part of Qarth—the part that Hai Ya Bo Li wanted us to see," she continued,

"Rakaro, I want you to look deep into the rest of it and report back to me what you see and hear. Bring with you capable men - and a few women - to gain access to places that are off limits to men."

"As you command, my blood's blood," Rakharo said.

"Ser Jorah, I want you to find the docks and see what kind of ships are anchored there. I haven't heard from the Seven Kingdoms in half a year. Maybe the gods will send some kind captain from Westeros

Come here and take us home in his boat."

The knight frowned. "This is not a good intention. The usurper will kill you as surely as the sun will rise." Mormont hooked his thumb on his sword belt. "I will stay with you to protect you.

"

"Jhogo can also guard me. Moreover, you know more languages ​​than my bloodriders, and the Dothraki do not trust the sea and the people who sail on it. You are the only one who can serve me in this matter. Go,

Go among the ships and talk to the sailors and find out where they are coming from, where they are going, and who is in charge of commanding them.”

The banished knight reluctantly nodded. "As you command, my queen."

After all the men left, the maid took off her dust-stained silk coat. Daenerys slowly walked out and came to the marble bath in the shadow of the porch. The water was cool and pleasant, and the little goldfish in the pool nibbled her skin curiously.

, making her giggle. She closed her eyes and floated with the wave, knowing that she could rest as long as she wanted. It felt so good. I wonder if there is such a pool in Aegon's Red Keep.

Fragrant gardens full of lavender and mint. There must be. Viserys often said that the Great Kingdom was the most beautiful place in the world.

She became uneasy when she thought of going home. If her sun and star were still alive, he would definitely lead the khalasar across the poisonous ocean and wipe out her enemies, but his power has disappeared from this world. Her bloodriders

Although he is still there, and he has excellent martial arts and will serve to the death, he is only a hero after all. The Dothraki sacked the city and plundered the kingdom, but they did not understand the way to rule. Daenerys does not want King's Landing to turn into a charred corpse filled with wandering souls.

Ruins, she has had enough of tears.

I want my kingdom to be beautiful, full of strong men, beautiful women, and happy children. I want my people to smile when I ride by, as Viserys would say, to me

The smile shown by my father. To do this, you must first conquer.

The usurper will kill you, as surely as the sun will rise, said Mormont. Robert killed her heroic brother Rhaegar and sent minions across the Dothraki Sea to poison her and her

An unborn child. It is said that Robert Baratheon was as strong as a bull and fearless on the battlefield. He was a man who loved war more than anything else. Around him, there were many great men whom his brother called 'the Usurper's lackeys'.

Nobles: Eddard Stark with cold eyes and frozen heart; the golden Lannister father and son, rich, powerful, and treacherous.

How could she thwart such an enemy? While Khal Drogo was alive, tributes were offered tremblingly to stave off his wrath, or else he would seize his opponent's city, wealth, wife, and all. But his khalasar

So huge, yet so weak. She followed her comet, and her people followed her across the red wasteland, and will follow her across the poisonous ocean, but they alone are not enough, even with hers

Dragons are not enough. Viserys believes that the people of the country will rise up for the true king... But Viserys is a fool, and fools believe in stupid things.

Doubts made her tremble. She suddenly felt that the water was too cold, and the bites of the small fish were annoying. Dany got up and crawled out of the pool. "Ellie," she called, "Jiqi."

The maids dried her with towels and wrapped her in a sand silk robe, and Daenerys' thoughts turned to the three people who came to find her in the City of Bones. "The Weeping Star" led me to Qarth

, must have a purpose. As long as I am strong enough to seek help, and wise enough to avoid the traps and pitfalls, I will find what I need. If the gods destined me to be a conqueror, they will provide support.

Show some kind of miracle.

Drogon, the black dragon has performed a miracle, this is the will of the gods!

Towards evening, while Daenerys was feeding the dragons, Eli walked in through the Silk City and announced that Ser Jorah had returned from the docks... and brought someone with him. "Invite them in, no matter who he brings."

, all come in together," she was curious.

When they came in, she was sitting on a pile of cushions on the ground, surrounded by her dragons. The person who came was wearing a yellow and green feather cloak, and his black skin was like polished jet. "Your Majesty," the knight said, "I

Brought to you by Kuhuru Mo, captain of the Cinnamon Wind, from Tall Trees."

The dark-skinned man knelt down. "I am honored, Your Majesty," he said, not in the language of the Summer Islands that Dany could not understand, but in the Valyrian language used by the nine free trade cities, and he was very fluent.

.

"It would be my pleasure, Kuhurumo," Dany replied in the same language. "Are you from the Summer Isles?"

"Yes, Your Majesty. Less than half a year ago, we stopped in Old Town, and from there I brought you a special gift."

"Gift?"

"Good news. Stormborn Mother of Dragons, let me tell you that Robert Baratheon is dead."

Outside the wall, dusk enveloped Qarth, but a red sun rose in Dany's heart. "Is he dead?" she repeated. The sleeping black dragon suddenly felt a familiar breath coming from a distant place.

Come, she raised her head and hissed, then blew out a stream of white smoke, covering Daenerys like a veil.

Many times, when Daenerys looked at her cold eyes, she always felt that she was even smarter than humans. The two small dragons didn't look threatening, but the black dragon's size had reached the level of a large dog.

The black man was a little nervous. So Daenerys said: "Drogon, be quiet."

My name is not Drogon, Lin Mengchu neighed, but then she understood that it was meaningless. She could write on the ground with her claws, but why bother? Watch the conspiracy and betrayal as a dragon

, and things like palace struggles are also very interesting things, aren’t they?

"Are you sure? The usurper is really dead?"

"That's what they say in Oldtown. It's the same news in Dorne, in Lys, and in all the ports we call at."

He brought me poisoned wine, and now I am alive, but he died first. "How did he die?" On her shoulder, Viserion flapped his milky white wings, stirring the air.

"While hunting in the Kingswood, he was stabbed to death by a monster-like wild boar. At least that's what I heard in Old Town. There are also others

Some say it was the queen who betrayed him, or his brother, or his prime minister, Lord Stark. What all the legends have in common is that King Robert is indeed dead and has gone to his grave."

The familiar feeling just now disappeared in a flash. Lin Mengchu curled up his body and closed his eyes, and began to think about what the breath just represented. Classmate Chen is probably somewhere in this world now, maybe a whale.

Maybe a wild boar... Hey, he didn't really turn into a wild boar, right?

It is said that Robert Baratheon is the strongest man on the continent of Westeros across the Narrow Sea. How could such a man be easily killed by a wild boar? Maybe the wild boar was really transformed by Classmate Chen.

Only in this way could she kill a king headlong. Thinking of this, she opened her eyes again, looked at the people in the room, and then fell asleep.

Black Dragon's daily routine is to eat and sleep. She eats a lot and sleeps a lot, which is why she grows so fast.

Daenerys didn’t know what the usurper looked like, but there was hardly a day without her thinking about him. He was like a huge shadow that had shrouded her since she was born. She was born into the world in blood and storm, but she died because of him.

However, at this moment, this strange dark-skinned man suddenly liberated her.

"The boy sat on the Iron Throne," Ser Jorah said.

"Now that King Joffrey is on the throne," Kuhurumo added, "the political affairs are in the hands of the Lannister family. Robert's two brothers have fled King's Landing, and there are rumors that they intend to claim the throne. The Hand has lost power, and Shi

Lord Tucker was King Robert's best friend, but he was arrested for treason."

"Edd Stark is treason?" Ser Jorah sneered. "Only the White Walkers believe it! Even if eternal summer comes, this guy will not tarnish his precious honor."

"What honor can he have?" said Dany. "He has betrayed the true king, and so have these Lannisters." She was pleased, but not surprised, to hear that the usurper's lackeys were killing each other.

The same thing happened after her Drogo died, and the mighty khalasar was torn apart.

"My brother Viserys is dead, and he is the true king," she told the people of the Summer Islands. "My husband, Khal Drogo, killed him and crowned him with molten gold." If only my brother had been smarter,

The revenge he prayed for day and night is already close at hand!

"I feel sad for you, Mother of Dragons, and for Westeros which is bleeding, for it has lost its true king."

Under Dany's gentle fingers, the green Rhaegal stared at the stranger with molten gold eyes. He opened his mouth, his teeth shining like black needles. "Captain, when will your ship leave for Westeros again?"

?”

"I'm afraid not within a year or two. The Laurel Wind will set off from here and head east, circumnavigating the Jade Sea along the trade route."

"I understand," Dany said with some disappointment. "I wish you a safe journey and a prosperous business. You have brought me a precious gift."

"And I have been richly rewarded, great queen."

She was a little confused. "How could it be?"

His eyes sparkled. "I saw a dragon."

Dany smiled. "I hope you can see more one day. When I ascend my father's throne, come to King's Landing to see me, and you will receive a rich reward."

The Summer Islander promised to do as he was told, and kissed her fingers before leaving. Jhiqui led him out, while Jorah Mormont stayed.

"Khaleesi," Qitu said when they were alone, "if I were you, I wouldn't tell the plan casually. This kind of person will make a big deal about it wherever he goes."

"Let him speak," she said. "Let the whole world know my determination. The usurper is dead, what should I fear?"

"Not every sailor's story is true," Ser Jorah warned. "Even if Robert dies, it will be his son who will rule. Truth be told, nothing has changed."

"Everything has changed." Dany stood up suddenly. Her dragon screamed as she let go of its tail and flew away. "In the past, the Seven Kingdoms were like Drogo's khalasar, united under the strong rule of their leader. Now.

, they will also fall apart like the Khalasar after Kaa's death."

"The great nobles are always addicted to the game of power and fighting endlessly. Whoever wins, I can predict the changes in the situation. Khaleesi, the Seven Kingdoms will not fall into your hands like a ripe peach. You need

A fleet needs money, an army, and allies—"

"I know all this." She held his hand and looked deeply into his doubtful dark eyes. In his eyes, sometimes I was a girl who needed his protection, and sometimes I was a woman he wanted to sleep with. Did he ever really see me?

Do I consider him his queen?

"I'm no longer the frightened girl you met in Pentos. Yes, I've only been through fifteen name days...but, Jorah, I'm also like Dosh

Karin's crones are as old as my dragons, and as young as my dragons. I have conceived a child, burned a khal, and crossed the Red Waste and the Dothraki Sea. The blood of a true dragon flows within me."

"Same as your brother," he said stubbornly.

"I am different from Viserys."

"I'm not referring to him," he explained, "but to Rhaegar. But don't forget, even Rhaegar is bound to die. Robert on the Trident, with only a warhammer, proved that even dragons have their enemies.

"

"Real dragons will die." She stood on her toes and kissed his unshaved cheek. "But so will the dragon slayer."
