Game of Thrones: The Bronze and Fire Lord.

Chapter 275 Aegon's Marriage Partner
He clearly remembered the contents of the letter the other party had given him.

"Cousin."

Imond stepped forward, his excitement barely concealed.

Imon raised his hand to stop him: "Let's see how things go."

"okay."

Imond was overjoyed and shoved the ugly dragon head of the sheep thief to keep it from frightening his allies.

"Hiss!"

The sheep thief swallowed half a sheep with a flick of his head, then turned around and swung his bald tail, pawing at the ungrateful driver.

Look at you, so worthless.

When you meet him, call him Imon; if there's a good opportunity, call him cousin.

It doesn't match the spirit of my self-proclaimed King of the Wild Dragons at all.

"Sheep thief!!"

Imond fell flat on his face, breaking down and yelling.

He's ugly and has a terrible temper.

He embarrassed himself in front of everyone again today.

Immon sighed sadly, waved for Vomisor to fly away, and waited for the man to enter the gates of Durstonbury.

He no longer questions Alison's parenting style.

Because ordinary aristocratic education cannot produce a pair of outstanding talents.

He began to suspect his uncle's genes.

In some respects, Damon's genes are indeed superior to his uncle's.

The children born to these mothers tend to have more stable emotions.

Unlike his uncle's child, who explodes at the slightest provocation.

Sometimes it's not exciting, but it still explodes!
Upon entering the castle, one is greeted by scenes of devastation.

The garden, once filled with colorful flowers, was now a complete mess, clearly the result of some ugly dragon's deliberate destruction.

One of the castle towers was charred black, and the attic became a dangerous building.

The other buildings were relatively intact, after all, Imond didn't want to live in a ruin.

Aemon made his appearance.

The tightly closed castle gates opened, and a large group of servants and guards knelt down in a flurry.

"Who's in charge here?"

Aemon knew what was going on and immediately called for reinforcements.

"Your Highness, it is I."

An elderly knight with golden curly hair and a personal emblem of "a juicy peach" rose tremblingly and raised his hand.

The Peach Knight was a Reachman who served as the Tax Knight of Durstonbury.

To put it bluntly, it's not harvest time yet, so the head of the guards protecting the acting city lord is here.

The acting city lord died under the dragon flames, while the instructor and commander were taken away by the lord.

He currently holds the highest position at Durstonbury.

Where is Ulwin Baker?

Aemon looked him up and down and asked sternly.

The Peach Knight dared not lie and spoke quickly: "Lord Ulwin withdrew the allied forces after the Battle of Meadow River, first fleeing to White Garden City, then transferring the troops from Durstonbury and returning to Starshuttle City."

"Wow~"

Imond was extremely envious.

They say a cunning rabbit has three burrows, and Ulwin Baker really figured that out.

Despite being a prince, he did not yet possess a fiefdom.

They have three castles!
"Don't be envious, it will make you look like a loser."

Amon patted him on the head.

Imond lowered his head, denying it in his heart.

"Um……"

Helena hesitated, wondering whether she should tell her brother that Aegon had been granted the Tower of Babel.

After thinking about it, I decided to forget it.

Don't make Imond furious.

"Pack your things and prepare to welcome your new lord."

With a calm expression, Aemon pushed Aemon forward.

The Targaryens always keep their word.

His Highness promised Aemond to stop Aegon and would find him a suitable fiefdom.

do as promised.

"Greetings, Your Highness!"

The Peach Knight was the first to kneel down, followed by a chorus of shouts from his attendants and guards.

They had long wanted to welcome the young prince riding an ugly dragon into the city, but the prince refused to believe them and accused them of having ulterior motives.

They would rather live outside the city than eat the bread and milk they sent.

They would also ride dragons to threaten them and steal the sheep from the pasture.

I burst into tears!

People's joys and sorrows are not the same.

As the servants at Durstonbury wiped away tears of relief, Imond blushed, his excited brain suffering from oxygen deprivation.

He finally conquered the castle.

One man and one dragon conquered their own territory.

"Get up, get up."

Imond imitated his cousin by raising his hand.

"Yes, Prince."

The servants quickly rose and lived cautiously.

"hey-hey."

Imond immediately lost his composure, scratching his head and laughing sheepishly.

He was just a young man, and had never experienced the taste of power.

"Don't be too happy yet, this castle still legally belongs to the Baker family."

Imon poured cold water on the idea.

Imond was frantic: "What should we do then?"

Aemon chuckled softly and said, "Destroy the Pecker family."

……

The King's Landing.

Imperial meeting.

“You probably won’t believe it, but Darren, who is so young, has already gained the approval of a dragon.”

Viserys was in high spirits and boasted to his ministers.

Prime Minister Leonor smiled, seemingly exasperated by the King's playful antics.

Prince Darren is indeed outstanding.

At only 6 years old, he has shown an exceptional talent for reading.

His potential to become a warrior is also gradually emerging under the training of the Kingsguard Cole.

Plus, she has a good personality.

He's practically a hexagonal warrior.

"Believe me, Your Majesty. Prince Darren will surely surpass him."

Tailan seized the opportunity to flatter him.

"Haha, all thanks to the protection of the Seven Gods."

After laughing, Viserys remembered the serious business they needed to discuss.

The nephew replied that the rebellion in the Reach had been quelled. The Hightower family was the ringleader and was punished most cruelly.

The remaining vassals and allies will be taught a lesson one by one.

"Hopefully he won't be too hasty and cause a big commotion."

Viserys prayed silently.

Overall, it's good news.

He was unaware that his two sons were about to be granted titles and appointed as regional governors in the river bend.

The style of Yimeng Chunqiu.

He was reminded to reorganize the Royal Council and give the hardworking Earl Thaddeus a chance for advancement.

Think of this.

Viserys' smile faded, and he said seriously, "Grand Scholar Melos is getting old, and his duties as Grand Scholar cannot be delayed. Write to the Academy immediately to urge them to select a suitable candidate."

Whether the other seats in the Imperial Court are abolished is another matter, but the Grand Secretary must be replaced.

That old dog Melos is hogging the toilet without doing anything.

Previously, the concern was that the university would cause trouble, so they sent a restless person.

Now that Oldtown has fallen, Mond Hightower, the financier of the Citadel, has been beheaded.

The school town should be much more obedient now.

"No problem, Your Majesty."

Leonor agreed.

Viserys nodded in satisfaction, then looked around the royal council with a hint of regret.

Otto was seriously injured, and the news of his nephew Mond Hightower's death became the last straw that broke him.

He fainted and was unable to attend the meeting.

Without anyone to back him up, Grand Secretary Melos could only continue to feign dementia.

In the blink of an eye, the two old ministers were no longer of use.

"Alas, things have changed."

Viserys couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness, realizing that the Council of Kings was about to undergo a major reshuffle.

“Your Majesty, Prince Coollen of Sunspear has sent a letter requesting that Miss Alexandra meet with Prince Aegon.”

Tailan spoke cautiously.

"no!"

Viserys refused without even thinking.

His eldest son should not be allowed to put himself in danger.

Tailan, unable to express his grievances, said, "I know the prince's safety is more important than anything else, but we agreed to the marriage, and now there's been no further news."

The meaning was self-evident even though the sentence was only half-said.

They need to give an explanation.

If we keep dragging this out, what if they turn their backs on us?
The Dornish invaded the territories of the seven kingdoms without any justification.

If they're in the right, they'll have to resort to both insults and physical violence.

The royal family's reputation will be tarnished.

Viserys was annoyed, but knowing the situation, he patiently said, "Reply to Prince Coollen and tell him to wait a little longer. I will seriously consider it."

It has to be said that seeing how eager the other party was to arrange a marriage, he was somewhat swayed.

Perhaps sacrificing a son's marriage could truly bring about lasting peace.

"Your Majesty, I have good news."

As he watched the show, Corliss raised his glass, and with it, he adopted an air of superiority.

Viserys, being very polite, asked, "Oh, what's the good news?"

Corliss: "Prince Aegon's matchmaking was interrupted by the Reach's internal strife, but his impressive display with the dragon Sunfire has led to some offering their daughters to him."

"who is it?"

Viserys said happily.

Corliss said, enunciating each word clearly, "The Tali family of Horn Hill, Earl Donald Tali, a hero of the suppression of the rebellion."

...

“Earl Donald, you’ve finally arrived.”

At the gates of Durstonbury Castle, Eamon greeted the Tully family's army.

"Please forgive our lateness, Your Highness."

Earl Donald dismounted and bowed respectfully.

Imon waved his hand, unconcerned with such formalities.

Looking at the actual, well-trained army clad in iron armor.

One thousand heavy cavalry from the Luo Wan family, five hundred archers from the Tali family, and one thousand infantrymen from the Tali family.

The number of people was not large, only 2,500.

It's equivalent to the entire fortune of a second-tier nobleman.

Earl Donald, with his sharp and stern demeanor, said, "Your Highness, Ulwin Baker is hiding in Star Shuttle City and has deployed five thousand troops from the Baker family to garrison it."

"If we want to eradicate it completely, I suggest we take White Garden City first, and then besiege Star Shuttle City."

Imon said with satisfaction, "Good, this battle is now in your command."

Ulwin Baker was an ambitious man, even more wicked than Otto.

More accurately, Otto wanted power.

Complete and full power.

Ulwin wanted power, for better or for worse.

The fact that the Peck family was involved in the Reach conflict gave him a pretext to kill them.

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Earl Donald stood tall and proud, leading his army to camp outside the city.

Imon turned around: "Let's go too, let's go to White Garden City first."

Helena, wearing a beige dress, nodded obediently.

Imond munched on a carrot, his eyes gleaming with ambition toward the Baker family.

He wanted all three castles.

He has one, Helena has one, and Darren has one.

After the three siblings grew up, they each lived in their own castles.

Aemon smiled, seeing through the boy's greed.

pretty good.

Durstonbury is known as Little Highgarden, and White Garden City sounds like a place perfect for farming.

He prefers Star Shuttle City.

That was the original ancestral castle of the Peck family.

Located on the frontier of Dorne, east of Hornhill and west of Nightsong.

In the future conquest of Dorne, it can serve as an outpost for the army to enter Prince's Pass.

Because of the frequent harassment from the Dornish, Starshuttle City has a strong defensive capability.

Ulwin Baker mobilized five thousand troops, but relying solely on the dragons to burn and destroy the castle would be a losing proposition.

Earl Donald was well aware of Star Shuttle City's secrets and was well-suited to lead his troops to assist.

After conquering Dorne, he will be a major general in the Reach.

To ensure his loyalty, Aemon recommended that he marry into the royal family.

Earl Donald and his wife, Lady Jenny Rowan, had a 10-year-old daughter named Samantha Tally.

During the Dance of the Blood Dragons era, she and her brother Alan Tully were both prominent figures.

She has a fiery personality, acts decisively, and is bold and quick-witted.

Although he is a bit younger, he is only 4 years younger than Aegon.

When she gets older, she'll definitely be a virtuous wife and loving mother, the kind who takes good care of Aegon, that lump of mud.
