The Onion Knight said, "It's not that there isn't a will. Before Queen Mia entered the Dragon Cave, she told us that if anything happened to her, Prince Gendeli would inherit the throne.
I wasn't the only one who heard this. Richard and Song Ge were beside me. If you don't believe me, I can call them out and confront them on the spot. "
"With Richard and Song Ge's reputation and integrity, we won't doubt it."
Everyone immediately approved of Mia's will.
"Who's Prince Gendeli?" Tyrion was puzzled.
"It's said that he's Robert's illegitimate son and Mia's younger brother, but no one can prove it." Jaime frowned.
"What about the paternity test?" Tyrion was even more confused.
Jaime said, "The paternity test requires the blood of both father and son, but Robert's body was cremated eight years ago.
Low-level blood tests can only test for the king's blood, but Gendeli doesn't even have a drop of the king's blood.
According to him, a red-robed monk drugged him and drained all the king's blood.
But until now, the monk hasn't been caught, so no one can be sure if Gendeli is lying or not.
Also, even if the monk did take his blood, no one can be sure that his king's blood came from Robert. "
"Then how can Mia be sure that he's her younger brother?"
"Prince Gendeli looks like Renly when he was young," the Onion Knight explained and whispered to the servant beside him.
A moment later, two young women helped a pale-faced middle-aged man into the palace.
"Oh, he really looks like Renly. Is he Renly's illegitimate son?" the dwarf said in surprise.
"It's like they're made from the same mold." The nobles were also amazed.
"By the Holy Mother, Gendry, how have you become so thin?" cried Britney from behind Sansa.
Gendeli looked up at the female knight with a sad expression and remained silent.
"I'm Jenny, Gendeli's wife. This is my sister, Weeping Willow."
The long-legged young woman introduced herself and her companions before saying solemnly: "Zhan Deli is King Robert's illegitimate son.
We didn't know about this until we met the Dragon Queen six years ago at the Oak Hall. When we parted ways with her, she told Zhan Deli about his past and warned him to be careful of the red-robed monks when he went to the King's Landing because the King's blood was very precious.
We never took the initiative to reveal Zhan Deli's identity. We just wanted to live our lives peacefully. But there are too many red-robed monks in King's Landing, and Zhan Deli often goes to the temple for evening prayers … "
Jenny's tone became sorrowful and indignant. "My husband used to be as strong as an ox. His build was very similar to Queen Mia's, and he also used a hammer.
But he's just an honest blacksmith. We run a blacksmith shop, and our lives are simple and comfortable.
However, the evil sorcerer had not only drained his king's blood, but also his strength and body. Right now, it was difficult for him to even walk normally, let alone swing his hammer like before.
We were forced to find the Red Castle and seek help from Queen Mia. "
"Varys seems to have only lost Jiji," the dwarf said hesitantly.
"There's more than one type of blood sorcery." Lansel took a few steps forward, her eyes shining with golden light. Zhan Deli couldn't help but want to dodge.
"Don't move!" Holy Light One-Handed shouted.
Zhan Deli's spirit shook violently, and he really stopped moving.
After a long while, the golden light in the archbishop's eyes disappeared. He said sympathetically, "Your body is fine, but your spirit is damaged. It's like someone took a knife and dug out a large piece of your essence."
"Can it be healed? Cough, cough … "Zhan Deli panicked and started coughing violently.
Lansel frowned and shook her head slowly. "It's not too difficult to change someone else. But it's almost impossible for you. "
Weeping Willow said before her sister, "Are you unwilling to save Zhan Deli because he believes in the Red God?"
Lansel shook her head and sighed. "There's only one way I can think of, and that is to make him a priest of the gods!
Take Saint Matthew for example. He was originally a mortal with no extraordinary talent. But because of his devout faith, his soul was refined, and he became a saint and gained the body of an angel.
An angel is a god, and his spirit is countless times stronger than a mortal's.
To repair the damage to his spirit, he doesn't need to be refined into an angel. He only needs to be a normal priest.
But Zhan Deli is not a believer of the seven gods, and it's difficult for him to receive the Red God's favor … Maybe Benello can ask the Red God for a blessing? "
Benello was silent.
Zhan Deli's lips trembled, but he sighed in the end. He couldn't say what was on his mind.
He regretted it. He wanted to return to the embrace of the seven gods, but he couldn't let Miya down.
Currently, 99% of Theon Bella's base was made up of Red God believers. If he converted to the seven gods, he wouldn't be able to enter the Red Castle.
The Onion Knight looked around and said, "Zhan Deli is Robert's son. Does anyone have any objections?"
Sansa shook her head. "I have no objections."
"He's very tenacious! The characteristics are too obvious. "Tyrion shrugged, acknowledging Zhan Deli's identity.
The other vassals nodded. "He looks like this, and he has the Dragon Queen as his guarantor. It must be true."
Today's topic was to choose the successor of Theon Bella. It had nothing to do with the other vassals. That was why everyone was calm and realistic.
If this was a real King Selection Convention, the atmosphere wouldn't be so harmonious.
Davos heaved a sigh of relief. He pulled Zhan Deli in front of him and said loudly, "Under the witness of the seven vassals and the archbishop of the seven gods, I, in the name of Prime Minister Miya the First, declare Zhan Deli Weishui as the noble illegitimate son of Theon Bella. He will restore the surname of Theon Bella and inherit Miya Bella Theon's —"
"Wait!" The door of the palace opened, but before the cold wind could pour in, a tall and fat woman barged in on a flaming wheel.
"My lords, you all know me, right? I'm Zhong 'er, the true seed of Robert. The Dragon Queen has personally verified it. Oh, right, Lord Tyrion was there too. "
Compared to her weather-beaten face back then, the woman looked a lot chubbier.
She was white and fat, with makeup on, and wore a white fox fur coat. She looked like a chubby silver carp jumping on the shore.
The dwarf said strangely, "You want to be a queen?"
Zhong 'er shook her head. "I have a daughter. Have you forgotten?"
Davos angrily scolded the Red Heart Knight who followed her in. "Who allowed you to let her in?"
Fat Zhong 'er pointed at the onion knight's nose and shouted, "Prime Minister, I'm Miya the First's sister. Why can't I see her one last time?"
Benello walked out of the crowd and looked at the king. "I think we can give Zhong 'er's daughter a chance."
Davos's pupils shrank. "Supreme Priest, you were there when the Queen entered the Dragon Cave. You must have heard what she said, right?"
Benello said helplessly, "I have no prejudice against Prince Zhan Deli, but we need a brave and healthy king to challenge and defeat the Variant Ghost King, and then become the true ruler of the Seven Kingdoms and promote the teachings of the Red God."
As soon as he said this, the atmosphere was no longer as relaxed and harmonious as before. The Grand Duke's expression changed several times. His sharp eyes swept back and forth between Zhan Deli and the girl beside Zhong 'er.
Zhong 'er pushed her daughter in front of everyone and said loudly, "Yes, I'm a prostitute. Countless men and women have slept on my bed in King's Landing. It's a joke to let a prostitute become the queen.
I know all this, and I've always been honest. I've never harassed Queen Miya, but my daughter, Daminia, is a virgin.
She's been trained as a knight since she was young. She knows how to read and write, and she knows a little about the zither. She even attended the priest training class in the Holy Church. "
Daminia was about fourteen or fifteen years old. She was 1.7 meters tall, with black hair and black eyes. She had a square face. She was tall and strong and looked very energetic.
"You and your daughter are believers of the Seven Gods, right?" Tyrion asked strangely.
"Yes, we've been believers of the Holy Mother for half of our lives. But we can change to the Red God for the rest of our lives," Zhong 'er said sincerely.
Jon had been silent since entering the Red Castle. Now, he couldn't help but say, "Do you know how scary the King of Deviant Ghosts is?
We've been dealing with deviant ghosts since the Long Night. It's been eight years, and we can only face the King of Deviant Ghosts with the determination to die.
Your daughter is so young and hasn't even experienced summer. Don't kill her. "
Zhong 'er hesitated, but the girl puffed out her chest and said fearlessly, "I'm not afraid of death. Also, when I attended the priest training class, I went out of the city with the Warrior's Son to hunt the living dead. Because of my excellent results, I was praised by Commander Rando Tarley himself! "
Looking at the girl's young and determined face, Holy Light One-Hand said gently, "You may be a great warrior in the future, but you're still young."
"I'm not stupid. I'll do what I can." Daminia bowed to the archbishop and said seriously.
"This …" Lansel didn't know what to say.
Old Crab looked at everyone and said, "Whether it's Daminia or Zhan Deli, they're both of Robert's bloodline. Why don't we let them decide?"
The vassals thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
Just as everyone was about to leave, Sansa suddenly walked to Benello and said, "How do you plan to deal with the dragon?"
"We have our own plans." Benello said with a straight face.
"You can't do anything to it. Everyone saw it." Sansa said in a low voice.
"Lady Sansa, what do you want to do?" The Onion Knight frowned.
Sansa looked at everyone and said slowly, "Everyone knows that the deviant ghosts not only have the Evil Ice God that can fly, but they also have a large army of Ice Winged Dragons.
Now, the two-headed dragon is flying north. We don't know where it's going, but there are deviant ghosts watching King's Landing.
We're sure that the King of Deviant Ghosts has noticed the two-headed dragon's strange behavior.
I don't think anyone wants to face a deviant ghost king riding a Ice Winged Dragon, right? "
Jaime said seriously, "Now that things have come to this, we can only ask the Dragon Queen to help."
"Can the Dragon Queen help Prince Zhan Deli tame the dragon?" Davos looked at Old Crab expectantly.
Count Sydega shook his head, his face filled with reverence and worship. "We haven't seen Her Majesty for many years.
At first, we could still communicate through the Magic Tower.
Later, Her Majesty sang the complete Song of Fire and went to the Sky Beyond Sky, the legendary Astral Plane. Only she can send messages to us. The Magic Tower in the mortal world can't contact her.
Not long after, even the four Megalosaurus left the prime material plane, guarding the Great Swamp in the extreme south, the Land of Eternal Winter in the extreme north, the Endless Sea in the west, and the Dark Realm in the east. "
"Is there really an end to the world? I really want to see it! "Count Rowan was lost in thought.
"The Land of Eternal Winter is the closest to us. It's only ten thousand miles away from the Great Wall. That's the home of the deviant ghosts. When the long night is over, you can go take a look, "Old Crab said.
"In the current Seven Kingdoms, as long as you leave the door, it's the Land of Eternal Winter. What's there to see?" The dwarf complained.
Sansa said faintly, "We don't need the help of the Dragon Queen and the Megalosaurus. We can easily tame the dragon."
"The Holy Knight's Seal?!" The dwarf's heart jumped and he blurted out.
"Yes, the Holy Knight's Seal can use the Holy Mother's might to tame the Winged Dragon. The dragon might be stronger than the Winged Dragon, but it definitely can't withstand the Holy Mother's might."
Hearing this, the duke's face was filled with excitement. He was eager to try.
They were not Holy Knights, but in recent years, the second sons and even the eldest sons of noble families all took pride in joining the Sons of Warriors. Now, many noble families had Holy Knight children.
