Game of Thrones: The Bronze and Fire Lord.

Chapter 167: The Marriage of Storm's End
Storm's End.

A towering castle standing on the coast, under the influence of stormy environment all year round.

noon.

boom--

Dark clouds rolled over, and a young dragon of light silver color flew out.

It was the giant dragon Haiyan that escaped from the Stone Steps Islands.

"Hiss!"

Haiyan's vertical pupils were sharp as she shuttled through the dark clouds that obscured her vision, staring at the peculiar-looking Fengxi Castle from afar.

Like an unshakable stone pillar.

"Land, Haiyan!"

The driver's command sounded.

Seasmoke circled once before landing in the courtyard of Storm's End.

Crack!

There were lightning and thunder in the sky, and a cold rain began to fall.

"It's just the right time."

Lanino secretly rejoiced.

He didn't want to travel in the rain.

Even Haiyan, who is good at naval warfare, will instinctively resist during thunderstorms.

At this time, the castle gate opened.

"Sir Lanino, the Duke has been waiting for you."

A team of guards came out to greet the guests.

"Take care of my dragon, it needs something to eat."

Lanino smiled politely.

"Sheep, maybe?"

The middle-aged man dressed as a butler asked.

"Of course, Haiyan loves it."

……

Storm the Hall.

Due to the storm environment, the entire castle has few windows and the lighting is not very good.

There is a chandelier hanging from the ceiling and a brazier in the hall.

A strong and sturdy figure sat firmly on the lord's throne.

He was an old man with a resolute face.

Even though his hair is gray and there are wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, it still does not affect his bravery as a veteran of many battles.

If you don't look carefully, you might think he is a middle-aged man.

"Duke Beaumont, I send you my mother's greetings."

Lannino walked into the hall and bowed.

"You're welcome. I'm your mother's uncle."

Beaumond raised his hand.

Lannino looked at him quietly and saw that he was smiling.

He doesn't look like a serious veteran at all.

More like a kind and amiable elder.

Lannino secretly breathed a sigh of relief and started chatting with a smile.

"How is your father now?"

Beaumond asked slowly.

Lanino was not on guard and answered honestly.

We chatted for a while.

Three figures, two large and one small, came upstairs

The man was tall, but had a big belly.

The woman had a slender figure and was holding a little girl of about 4 or 5 years old in her left hand.

They were obviously a family of three, all with black hair and black eyes.

"Uncle Boros, Aunt Elena."

Seeing the visitor, Lannino hurriedly greeted him.

"Hello, nephew who rides a dragon!"

Boros laughed and clapped his hands on his stomach.

He is the only son of Duke Beaumond. He inherited the tall physique of the Baratheon family and gained weight in middle age due to alcoholism.

Lannino scratched his head and chuckled.

He knew very well what kind of person his cousin was.

Relying on his good martial arts skills, he acts recklessly and is illiterate.

Chunchun is a jerk.

"Okay, let's get down to business."

After the two sides met, Beaumond regained his composure.

Lanino was in awe.

Bomond didn't like to hide things, so he said directly: "Your father should have told you about the marriage between our two families?"

"Yes."

Lanino nodded in acknowledgment.

"That is my first granddaughter, the eldest of the Baratheon family."

Beaumond pointed to the delicate, dark-haired girl next to his daughter-in-law.

"what?"

Lanino was stunned.

Even though I was prepared, I was still surprised.

"Cassandra is indeed still young, but it won't affect your engagement."

Bomond said sternly, "When she reaches her first period at the age of 12, you can get married. It won't be too late to have sex in two years."

Cassandra Baratheon was four and a half years old.

He is 21 years younger than the 17-year-old Lannino.

But it doesn’t matter if the man is older, he can just wait until the woman grows up.

Let’s sign the marriage contract first to strengthen the alliance between the two families.

"I have no problem with that, as long as my cousin is willing."

Lanino took a deep breath, unable to refuse.

What’s wrong with marrying someone younger?
My father is a dozen years older than my mother, and I just inherited his ambitions.

Besides, he likes men.

"Don't worry, Cassandra was so happy to know that she could marry a dragon rider that she couldn't sleep for several nights."

Beaumond's eyes became more and more satisfied.

Looking across the seven kingdoms, there are only a handful of people who can ride dragons.

"That's good."

Lanino forced a smile.

"but!"

Bomond changed the subject and said sternly: "I don't care what the rumors outside say. When you marry my granddaughter in the future, you must give her a child."

Men can mess around.

But the purpose of the marriage must be achieved.

The future owner of Tidehead Island must have Baratheon blood.

Lannino's expression suddenly changed, and his mind was full of thoughts.

After a while.

Lanino was filled with pain and nodded slowly: "I will."

……

a few days later.

Once the news of the marriage between the Velaryon and Baratheon families was released, it sparked heated discussions throughout the Seven Kingdoms.

at the same time.

Word of the sea serpents' occupation of Tyrosh spread quietly.

The nobles of the Seven Kingdoms were in panic.

Discuss privately the growth of House Velaryon, or the Three Women's Kingdoms will not give up.

King's Landing, Mud Gate.

A three-masted sailing ship entered the sea, carrying supplies to Dragonstone.

"Princess, another person has signed up."

Sir Steve, dressed in silver armor and a white robe, stepped forward to report.

"Let's go and see."

With a gloomy look in her eyes, Rhaenyra turned and walked back to the city gate.

Bad things always happen one after another.

First, Aemon occupied the Vale and proclaimed himself "King of the Vale".

Later, the Sea Serpents conquered Tyrosh and formed an alliance with the Baratheon family.

The royal family cannot support itself.

"Lord Bartimos Celtigar said he wants us to arrive at noon."

Ser Lorent of the Kingsguard added.

Rainier paused, a hint of joy appearing on her pretty face.

The Royal Fleet has been preparing. Recently, there have been many applicants from the Royal Territory and Hejian Territory, and a large number of people have to be screened every day.

But there is no naval commander.

The Celtigar family of Crab Island is of ancient Valyrian blood, and is a maritime family that made its fortune by relying on the sea.

The arrival of Count Bartimos will naturally solve the problem of the naval generals.

Rhaenyra walked briskly.

Steve and Lorent looked at each other, and followed the princess on the left and right.

The atmosphere in King's Landing is becoming increasingly depressing.

The king convened the royal council almost every day to guard against the threats from the sea snakes and the three women's kingdoms.

Everyone had the same idea.

I'm afraid war is coming.

……

Mid-December.

In the valley, there was light snow.

Snow began to accumulate in the Mingyue Mountains, and all roads and paths were gradually blocked.

Riverdale Town.

Aemon rushed back to the Hall of Plenty in the falling snow.

"come on in."

Johanna was wearing a black dress and walking towards me with her waist twisted.

"It's so cold."

There was frost on Yimon's eyelashes and his vision was blurry.

Riding a dragon in the snow almost froze him to death.

I just sent Jane Sifu back to Fushi City and gained the understanding and maternal love of my mother, Lady Leia.

Say it very gently and tell him to get away.

Fushishi City does not provide any food.

"Who told you not to come back? I thought you were living in the Gates of the Moon."

Johanna has a deep resentment.

That being said, I helped him brush the snow off his shoulders.

"The Gates of the Moon are located in the Vale of Arryn, so it is convenient for us to meet our bannermen."

Eamon was helpless.

River Valley Town is good, but its geographical location is a bit remote.

It is not as well connected as Yuemen Fort.

But that’s okay.

Yuemen Fort is used for meetings, River Valley Town is the political center, and Fushishi City is used for farming and garrisoning troops.

In the later period, resources were tilted towards Haiou Town, focusing on both political and military aspects.

"Come into my room and warm up."

Johanna kicked away the shadow cat that was vying for her favor and walked into the room with Aemon on her arm.

Eamon: ...

"There's a letter for you, from Chaotou Island."

Johanna glanced sideways.

"elbow!"

Aemon perked up.

……

A warmly decorated study room.

Johanna was half-kneeling on the ground, sticking out her round and perky breasts.

Twist and turn~~
After a while, he chuckled and said, "Found it."

He poked his head out from under the desk, holding a letter in his hand.

Aemon's mouth twitched slightly.

You definitely can’t go into the bedroom, because once you go in you probably won’t be able to get out.

Unexpectedly, Johanna's study room is also her daily resting place.

Miscalculation!
Fortunately, Johanna stopped at that point and knelt on the ground to pet the cat.

Aemon sat in a chair and examined the envelope.

Lannar's letter.

It is said that Tyrosh fell, and the Sea Serpents suppressed it with an iron fist and initially gained control of the country.

Laenor is betrothed to Cassandra Baratheon.

The Stormlands allied with Velaryon.

Tell him to be careful and not get involved with the Stone Steps Islands.

And don't go back to King's Landing to avoid angering the king.

In a word.

When she returns to the valley, she will tear Jenny apart.

"what?"

Aemon was stunned for a moment.

The context is incoherent.

Why turn so far?

"Jenny is not an easy person to deal with."

Aemon thought to himself.

"The Black Rose Collection is almost ready."

Johanna suddenly spoke.

Aemon looked over inquiringly.

"Jun Lin sent thirty good men, enough to gather information."

Johanna was leaning back, her white arms supporting the big furry cat pillow.

"I sent two people to the Stone Steps Islands in the name of smuggling."

"We don't have enough manpower right now, so we can only do this for now."

The original plan was to send people to the Three Women's Kingdom.

But there are too few reliable people.

"It's okay, that's enough."

Aemon groaned.

According to the current situation, he will be able to return to King's Landing soon.

First, ensure the news and safety of King's Landing, and then the Three Women's Kingdoms can plan slowly.

"correct."

Johanna's charming eyes turned and she said softly, "Jun Lin has a letter for you."

"Where?"

"In the drawer."

Yimon quickly found it, and it turned out to be a letter of comfort from his uncle.

Tell him to return to King's Landing as soon as possible and explain the misunderstanding.

"Oh ho~~"

Aemon couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.

Speaking of uncle, uncle is here.

……

The time came a week later.

King's Landing.

The climate in King's Landing remains unchanged. With occasional cold winds, it is still relatively warm during the day.

In the morning, the sun was high in the sky.

boom--

Suddenly, a huge creature broke through the clouds and soared across Blackwater Bay to King's Landing.

"Hiss-"

Vermithor raised his head and roared, then swooped down over King's Landing.

"Hiss!"

The next moment, a giant silver-gray dragon followed closely behind, with a very gorgeous appearance.

Two giant dragons appeared, immediately attracting attention.

People in the streets and alleys looked up and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

A dragon from when the Centenarian King and Queen Alysanne were alive.

And now, it is the dragon of Aemon, the "Lord of the Vale".

Wormithor and Silver Wing were entangled with each other, flying side by side in the sky, circling King's Landing three times.

"Land, Vermithor!"

Finally, it slowly flew towards the dragon's lair.

"Hiss-"

With a roar, his throat expanded and his wings spread, Womisol landed on the open space in front of the dragon's lair.

Silver Wing followed suit and landed next to his partner.

Aemon's body swayed slightly, then he sat firmly.

He looked around and said with a smile: "Jun Lin, it's time to vindicate this king."
