After a moment of silence, Kevon touched his bald head and said tiredly, "Did you know? The Great Sparrow is building new statues of the Seven Gods and changing the doctrine, saying that the Great Protector is equivalent to the Kingsguard of the Seven Gods.
Obviously, after seeing the influence of the Megalosaurus on believers, he intends to further strengthen the relationship between the church and the Megalosaurus.
Naturally, the relationship between the church and Daenerys will also become closer. "
"The army should immediately flatten the church when they return from Hejian, but you put tens of thousands of elite soldiers who have been baptized in war aside as decorations," Cersei mocked.
Kevon said in a deep voice, "At your command, Robert Strong eliminated hundreds of people who insulted you on the day of the parade. He was also ambushed by the families of the victims, but he fought one against ten and broke out of the siege. Who doesn't know about the King's Landing?
The Great Sparrow felt the pressure and planned to cancel the trial by martial arts and change it to the church trial like Margaery.
But the thirty thousand Lion Helmet Army taught him to make a rational choice.
Also, Lannister, a debt must be repaid.
I am also Lannister.
I will not let the Great Sparrow go, but it can't be our family doing … blasphemy against the Seven Gods.
We have to wait. When winter comes, the Sparrows will starve and freeze to death in large numbers. When the church continues to encroach on the nobles' rights to feed the refugees, when the nobles' patience with the church reaches its limit.
At that time, I will unite all the nobles and strike together.
If only our family goes to flatten the Great Cathedral, the nobles on Lannister's side will be happy, but they will immediately turn from our allies to enemies, just like when they denounced the cruel Meg.
Also, we have to consider the possibility of the Megalosaurus intervening. After all, he is the Great Protector of the Seven Gods!
Lannister's family can't take the thunder; it's best to have someone else fill in the hole. "
"Didn't you say that You Lun has the Dragon's Horn and can control the Megalosaurus? Flatten the Cathedral, lure the Megalosaurus to attack, and take control of one or two Megalosaurus. Who would dare oppose us? "Cersei said.
Kevon gently massaged his temples and carefully analyzed the situation for his niece. "First of all, the Dragon's Horn cannot control the Black Dragon. We have to wait for the White Dragon or the Green Dragon. It would be best if it was a young Golden Dragon.
Secondly, You Lun has the horn, not us.
In the end, Meg also had a dragon, and it was the most powerful Bellerion, but he was also betrayed by everyone because he burned the Great Cathedral. "
"You Lun is in the Red Keep," Cersei said in a low voice. "You Lun is in the Red Keep. You can control him or kill him, force the Ironborn to swear allegiance to the Iron Throne, and then take away his horn.
"Sigh!" Kevon facepalmed. He almost cried at his niece's stupidity.
`I swore, sacred oath; I entertained him, guest's right! Not only me, but Prime Minister Tyrell and Count Tully also swore to ensure his safety. "
"Anyway, we are not the only ones who have violated the oath and guest's right. Everyone is used to it," Cersei mumbled.
"Gah —" Sir Kevon almost fainted.
This niece must be packed up and sent away as soon as possible. Let her go to the Iron Islands to harm Tiemin!
"We can solve the problem peacefully through marriage. Why throw away our honor and bear the sin of being spat on by thousands?
Furthermore, the Dragon's Horn is not with him. It is in the custody of his younger brother, Victarion. You Lun met with an accident in the Red Keep. Victarion will take revenge on us even more crazily. "
Seeing that his niece was silent, Sir Kevon sighed and said earnestly, "There is also the Northern Territory. Roose Bolton must return immediately.
I thought that Stannis was no longer a threat, but he turned the tables and gained the allegiance of the clans and some of the nobles in the Northern Territory. He is now heading south to Deepwood Castle.
If he can take down Winterfell and raise the banner of revenge for Stark, the Northern Territory might really fall into his control.
That's right, something happened in the valley.
Littlefinger rejected the finance minister's invitation, and Seagull Town (a port city in the valley, like White Harbor in the Northern Territory) provided a lot of help to the grain transport fleet in Sytega.
Cersei, the enemy is getting stronger. We don't have the strength or time to waste! "
Cersei stared at Kevon's melancholy eyes and sighed. "Uncle, you will regret this."
The next day, at the Regent's council meeting, Kevon solemnly announced the marriage between his niece and Duke You Lun.
Cersei Lannister will be engaged to the King of the Iron Islands, You Lun Greyjoy, after completing the trial of the King of the Iron Islands.
With the King's Landing's Red Keep as the center, this news quickly spread throughout the Seven Kingdoms. Even Governor Pentos, who had quietly arrived at the Red Keep, was shocked.
"I just arrived at the King's Landing and I'm already hearing this news. Kevon Lannister is really something!"
Walking in the dark and narrow tunnels of the Red Keep, Illyrio sighed.
The marriage between Cersei and You Lun had been planned for a long time, but he had always thought that with Cersei's personality, she would definitely not be manipulated by Kevon. After all, Kevon was not Tywin.
"I have never underestimated Sir Kevon."
Varys, who was holding a torch, had a calm expression.
"What are your plans?" the fat governor asked.
"Even if I have a plan, what's the use without that person's cooperation?" Varys said helplessly.
"Sigh!" Hearing this, Illyrio sighed and smiled bitterly. "I'm looking for you this time because of Danny Rize.
I heard that the Dragon Queen has concocted a cure for the Grayscale Disease, and the epidemic at Slaver's Bay has officially ended … I'm very worried.
Could it be that in order to calm the people, she killed all the infected and purposely … "
"It does sound unbelievable, but I just received news that the people from the Iron Treasury went to Astapor. They confirmed that the epidemic at Slaver's Bay has ended.
Don't worry, the representative from the Iron Treasury even met Prince Aegon at the banquet. He is very well and healthy, and the Queen treated him well.
She acknowledged his identity.
Not only did the people at Slaver's Bay know, she also introduced Prince Aegon to foreign guests, such as Taechu of the Iron Treasury. "Varys consoled.
Illyrio heaved a sigh of relief, and his expression softened. He asked, "Why did she reject the marriage with Aegon?"
"We miscalculated."
After entering the spacious dragon cave, Varys stopped and fixed the torch in Bellerion's nostrils.
Then, the two of them found a place to sit down.
"I can't understand Danny Rize's thoughts. When we first took down Astapor, she sent you a letter asking about the prophecy of 'the dragon has three heads,' and was planning to find a dragon knight.
Of course, we didn't think highly of her at that time and thought that she would be chased away by the Guise Alliance.
That's why we didn't reply and didn't tell her about Prince Aegon. We were prepared to wait and see.
But the result was unexpected. Like the Young Wolf Master, she showed the demeanor of a peerless general on the battlefield. "
Actually, knowledge was knowledge. It needed to be learned and accumulated.
In terms of tactics, Danny and Robb were far inferior to famous generals, such as Tywin and Randall Tarly.
But the two of them were pay-to-win players. Robb had the direwolf, and Danny had the dragon.
Even worse, the two of them had famous generals assisting them. Robb had Blinden Tully, and Danny had Barristan.
"Sigh, we should have communicated with her more," Illyrio said regretfully.
The eight-clawed spider Varys nodded silently.
When the Guise Alliance was swept away by Danny, they didn't inform her when they arranged for Aegon to go to Slaver's Bay.
They thought that the Dragon Queen would listen to them: marry Aegon, ride a dragon back to conquer the Westeros.
In the end, the Dragon Queen treated the two of them like air.
Dany had sent Illyrio a note of apology for taking possession of the three great galleys Grollet had brought, the three laden merchant ships Illyrio had arranged to fetch Dany from Kilth. She had never given them a second thought.
It could be said that from beginning to end, Illyrio and Varys' plan had always been their plan. The others, even the Targaryen people, were kept in the dark and were their pawns.
As for Danny, she didn't treat them as her own people. If she had any ideas, she never informed them. The two of them also never wrote to her.
Both sides had big ideas and did their own things. Naturally, Varys' originally "meticulous" plan became a mess.
Danny was fine. She never trusted the two of them and didn't expect any help from them.
But in Varys and Illyrio's plan, the Dragon Queen was a very, very, very important part.
The Dragon Queen could overturn the chessboard with a casual move.
But Varys and Illyrio still only acted according to their own ideas.
Perhaps they thought that they could use the world as a chessboard and all life as pawns?
In the vast and deep dragon cave, only the crackling of sparks from the torches could be heard. The two fat men looked at each other speechlessly.
Suddenly, Varys rubbed his face and said, "At first, we sold Danny and Lys to the Horse King, thinking that Viserys could lead Drogo's roaring warriors to pave the way for Aegon.
In the Westeros, the Rebellion of the Four Kings broke out. In the Dothraki Sea, Viserys and the Horse King died one after another.
The plan was completely messed up.
After that, we sent Aegon to Slavers' Bay, thinking that Danny and Lys would marry him and repeat the path of Aegon the Conqueror.
In the end, while Aegon was still on the road, she rode a dragon to the Westeros and swore an oath to 'end the long night as King.'
The plan couldn't keep up with the changes again.
Fate didn't favor us. Danny and Lys were also a headache.
In the end, a true dragon is a true dragon. It has its own will and is not bound or manipulated. We misjudged that girl. "
"It wasn't a misjudgment. We just never considered her own thoughts." Illyrio smiled bitterly.
"We didn't care if she liked the Horse King or not. We didn't care if she could adapt to the life of a centaur. We still didn't care if she could survive the Horse King's death. We still didn't care if she was willing to return to the Westeros. We still didn't care if she was willing to marry Aegon and help him take back the Iron Throne. We couldn't continue to care if we wanted to … but we couldn't!"
Varys said, "Although the plan kept getting messed up, overall, Prince Aegon's situation is not bad. Danny and Lys have acknowledged his identity and are even helping him tame his dragon."
Illyrio's fat face trembled and he asked nervously, "Did Aegon become a dragon knight?"
Varys shook his head and said, "Although Danny and Lys didn't marry him, they really treated him like family. She was especially good to him and even let him choose the dragon he liked.
Then, Aegon chose the black dragon.
You know, black dragons have intelligence and can speak. They are definitely harder to tame. "
Illyrio's eyes flashed and he grumbled in a low voice, "He should have chosen the little dragon."
"That child has a temper. Scholar Yimont had originally arranged for him to cultivate feelings with the newly born red dragon. Unfortunately, he couldn't wait." Varys sighed.
If Danny were here and heard this, she would be very surprised. Because of such details, even many of the higher-ups in Astapor did not know.
"You came to find me this time because of the Golden Group?" the fat eunuch asked.
"Yes, the Golden Group's employment contract with Mill has expired. They asked me about my future plans."
