Chapter 361 The King Should Be Merciful
Chapter 361 The King Should Be Merciful
No one knew exactly when Aegon stopped breathing.
The king dismissed the Grand Secretary, leaving himself alone. It was not until the guards on duty checked the king's condition as usual that they found that the king had been summoned by the Stranger. Fortunately, the environment in the Red Castle was relatively cool, and the king's body was not damaged at all.
Daeron was not surprised by the news of his father's death. He was not even surprised by Aegon's last words: "Egor, Bran, thanks to the support of the Varese family, my father did not go astray in the end, and the kingdom can still remain stable."
"Even if he admits that all bastards are of Targaryen blood?" Igor said with a smile.
Daeron nodded, "They do have Targaryen blood flowing through their veins. With your support, I am confident that I can live in harmony with them."
Igor kept smiling.
Darren didn't have much problem with his illegitimate brothers. What he had a problem with was his promiscuous father. Even when he and his father had the biggest conflict, Darren still remained polite to these illegitimate brothers.
Everyone can feel this.
"Your Highness, the Crown Prince, funeral"
"Perform the ceremony as prepared." Darren gave the order.
The bastards heard the bells of the king's death, and before that, they heard the thunderous roar of the dragon.
Several illegitimate children immediately realized what had happened. When the servants saw two giant dragons patrolling the sky, the illegitimate children also realized that any action would probably not be feasible.
They also saw the White Knight Gaimon who was rushing over.
"His Majesty the King has passed away. You have heard it, right?" Gaimon said with a sigh. He could tell when he entered the room that these people were definitely not gathered together to drink. They were probably making some preparations.
"I heard it. That dragon roar was from Wormisol, right?" asked Aegor.
Gaimon nodded and said, "Prince Igor ordered Vermithor to land directly on the Red Castle. God of the Seven, I almost thought the Red Castle would be crushed by the dragon."
As he spoke, Gaimon closed the door and said seriously: "No kidding, there are two things now." He looked around at the people in the room and nodded secretly.
It seems that Damon is still very cautious, and those guys whose identities are questionable are not here.
"The King's will acknowledges that we are descendants of the Targaryen family." Gaimon said this thing that everyone had expected: "I know we all expected this, but this will can be conveyed."
He didn't elaborate, he believed that these brothers could understand what he meant.
"Our new king is a kind man." Harry said calmly.
"Honest?" Aegor smiled. "I admit that our brother is a gentle and kind person, but he is the heir to the Iron Throne and the future king. Our father used us as knives, what about him?"
"Iger."
Gaimon glared at Aegor and said, "Now is not the time to talk about this, everyone. Father's funeral will be tomorrow. After the funeral, the new king will summon you all."
He looked at them meaningfully and said, "Be prepared." The expressions of the illegitimate dragon knights changed. Surprisingly, Benson's expression was the worst. "Gaimon, explain clearly, what do you mean by be prepared?"
"It's meaningless." Gaimon shook his head: "If you trust the character of the Crown Prince, nothing will happen. At most, there will be some measures to restrict you."
Several people looked at each other.
"Thanks, Gaimon."
"Everyone, that's all I have to say." Gaimon bowed slightly, turned around and left without hesitation. As a Kingsguard, he couldn't get too close to these people. He had to finish what he had to finish.
After watching Gaimon and Harry leave, the dragon knights stared at each other for a while.
"I trust the kindness of the Crown Prince." Benson was the first to adjust. His sullen face just now seemed to have never existed. "We have all seen the Crown Prince's previous behavior. At least he will not do anything to hurt his blood relatives."
In the tradition of Westeros, harming blood relatives is a great sin that angers the gods. Whether it is the new gods or the old gods, kinslaying is an evil act that is not tolerated by the gods and the world - you can do it, but you can't let others know. And the king is exactly the one who will be discussed no matter what he does.
"Benson, you didn't have that expression just now." Iger said sarcastically, "No matter what kind of person he is, he has to think about himself when he sits on that iron chair. We are all blood relatives of the king, and now we are legal blood relatives. According to the law, we also have the right of inheritance, and he."
Aegor pointed at the silent Daemon and said, "He is the most special among us. He is the blood of the royal family, with pure blood, no doubt. He also has the Black Flame Sword. Our dear father never said to take back the Black Flame Sword. Everyone knows what this sword means. Ambitious people, yes, I am talking about those people around you." Aegor looked at the shadow without hesitation. Desiris and others did not leave, but were still waiting for the result in the villa.
"They will take notice of your identity, Daemon. You are the rider of Korakshu, the rider of the most powerful dragon of Targaryen. You may be used as a banner by those people at any time, whether you like it or not. If it were you, would you be willing to leave such a hidden danger?"
"Aeger, shut up." Galen interrupted Aeger: "Be careful with your words."
"Gailin is right." Daemon looked at Aegor calmly. Aegor could not see the hidden meaning in his expression. "Be careful with your words and actions, Aegor. We are now dealing with the problems left by our father." He looked at the Blackfire hanging on the wall. As a guest of Galin, this was the proper way. "When my father entrusted the Blackfire to me, I knew what would happen. But that is also a matter of the future. Let's get through the present first."
Dimon ended the discussion.
Throne Room.
The blade of the Iron Throne is still sharp, and looks particularly terrifying in the dark room, but there are still many people whispering around this dangerous chair.
The king is dead.
The new king ascended the throne, but what he had to face was the distrust and constraints of the previous king, a new king without Blackfire, and a dragon-blooded illegitimate son who possessed Blackfire and controlled Korakshu.
Some people already smell the scent of strife.
"Your Majesty." Count Marewes has changed his tone: "We must make up our minds, Your Majesty." The old earl still insisted on dealing with all the hidden dangers: "Either take back Blackfyre, or completely eliminate these bastards riding dragons. Your Majesty, the king should be merciful, but when someone gets involved in the crown, the king should also be cruel."
The old earl stared at Darren, who had just arranged the funeral.
