Tyrion was a smart man. How could he not know that when the clam fought, the fisherman would reap the benefits?
According to his original plan, the alliance between Aegon and Aegon, as well as the sacred marriage between Aegon and Sansa, were all top secret information.
His strategy was to keep a low profile, quietly gather allies, and accumulate military strength. In other words, he was building a high wall and slowly claiming the throne.
This was because the conflict between Lannister and Tyrell had not reached its climax.
Tyrion did not expect a war between Cersei and the High Court to break out when Aegon had appeared. His whore sister might be stupid enough to be willing to fight a civil war to warm up before a great enemy, but Rose was not stupid, and Lion was not stupid either.
Yes, in terms of family prosperity and talents, Lion's family could look down on the sum of the five kingdoms outside of High Court. The great nobles of River Bend were all descendants of "Green Hand" Garth, and "Beast" Garth alone reproduced a kingdom.
Lion Tywin, Kevon, Lion Tyrion, and Tiger Jaime were well known, but Lannister was not weak, but not famous (only not famous among readers, but also famous in Westeros).
For example, the acting mayor of Casterly Rock City, Damien Lannister, was a collateral relative of Lannister, and no one (readers) knew him.
But without thinking, if Damien did not have the ability, would Kevon have handed over his home to him?
It was said that the Frey family was the most fertile family in the Seven Kingdoms. Old Wade's descendants alone could form a cavalry squad.
In fact, the Lannister family had the most clansmen. There was a saying: In Lannister Harbor, if you randomly grab two people, at least one of them will have the surname Lannister.
It was not an exaggeration to say that Lannister's family had reproduced Casterly Rock City.
Therefore, the Lions did not lack talents. The talents of the Lions also stood out under Tywin's rule and entered the military and political system of the Lions.
Therefore, even though Kevon was dead and Cersei was foolish, Lannister's foundation did not crumble.
That was why Aegon could not wait for Cersei and Tyrell to meet on the battlefield, unless he did not show up.
In fact, Tyrion had been prepared for a third party, such as Randall Tarly, to mediate between Cersei and Tyrell for the third time.
But keeping a low profile could numb Cersei and delay her compromise with Old Rose.
By the time Aegon left for King's Landing, it would be too late for Cersei to work with Tyrell.
His plan was very good, but he had neglected another person.
You Lun.
You Lun actually managed to wipe out Highcourt Tyrell's entire family all by yourself.
Yep, I didn't even get to see the Dragon Queen once before Old Rose received a boxed lunch … Oh, I was about to receive a boxed lunch. Whether or not I received a boxed lunch would be up to the Dragon Queen.
Two days after the Gaoting incident.
“What？ Gaoting is gone? How could it be gone? "The Dragon Queen exclaimed.
Dragonstone Island.
The crystal tower that was the hub of the magic net.
A circle of runes the size of a dustpan expanded on the surface of the light blue magic crystal ball. The blue light formed the shape of Danny's head, as if it was a 3D image of a blue light.
Strangely, everyone in the hall felt that the Queen's head was facing them no matter which angle they looked from.
At this moment, Aegon, Tyrion, Marwin, Old Crab, and Bronn were gathered together. Their expressions were indescribable horror and absurdity.
Since the beginning of the War of Conquerors, 'Blackheart' Harren's Hall family had been burned to ashes by Bellerion, and in the past three hundred years …
Hmm, thinking about it, it was really scary.
The War of the Usurpers was still fine, but in the past twenty years, Targaryen, Theon, Stark, Ayrin, and Tully had all been destroyed or were on the verge of extinction.
Now, seven duke-level families had been destroyed, and they had all died so suddenly and unimaginably.
It was easy to get addicted to power, and the Iron Throne was poisonous. Anyone who touched it would be unlucky.
"It is said that Gaoting Tyrell was massacred by You Lun, but this news has not been confirmed. However, Cersei of King's Landing acted almost at the same time and arrested Prime Minister Mace Tyrell and Queen Margaery for treason.
If the rumors are true, then other than Loras, who is receiving treatment at the Great Cathedral, no one in the Tyrell family with thousands of years of history has escaped! "
Even though it had been a few hours since he received the news, Marwin was still in disbelief when he spoke of this matter. His voice trembled with fear.
"How did You Lun do it?" Danny asked in surprise.
Marwin turned his gaze to Tyrion and Aegon, and said, "Gaoting is still sealed by You Lun, so I am not sure what exactly happened.
Dragonstone Island only received a few messenger crows from River Bend's vassals, saying that there was a huge change in Gaoting, and that they were not even sure if Gaoting had fallen.
However, Varys knows more than we do. He has dealings with His Highness. "
Without waiting for Danny to ask, Aegon nodded and said, "Count Varys contacted me once. The change in River Bend first occurred at the Shield Islands, and the Green Pavilion Island fleet was completely wiped out.
Perhaps Gaoting is only trapped now and has not completely fallen.
Varys told me to be wary of You Lun's sea monsters and evil sorcery. Before the situation is clear, it is best to hide in Dragonstone Island. "
"Even sea monsters came out?"
Tyrion had a complicated expression as he said, "Varys said that it was a red octopus. Its tentacles reached out of the sea and were even taller than the mast.
It suddenly came out of the sea and wrapped around Count Redwin's ship with a dozen tentacles — a huge warship with four hundred oars.
It was as simple as a clumsy servant breaking a baguette — those were Varys' words.
Unfortunately, Villa Tyrell was also on that ship at the time, and Gaoting lost its heir. "
"Unbelievable. I always thought that sea monsters were just legends," Bronn said in shock.
Marwin shook his head and said, "After the queen hatched the Megalosaurus, the magic tide surged, and the legendary creatures became active.
Since three years ago, sea monsters have appeared in the narrow sea from time to time. Every time they appeared, a ship would be dragged to the bottom of the sea. However, no one thought that someone could control them. "
"Sigh, with the Megalosaurus in the sky and sea monsters in the water, how can ordinary people live!" The dwarf sighed.
He also recalled that during the War of the Four Kings, when he was the Hand of the King at King's Landing, he had received a report from a customs official that there were sea monsters destroying ships on the Five Finger Peninsula.
At that time, he had even ridiculed the official. "There are still sailors in Lannister Port who have seen mermaids. Why don't you go catch a few and make Emperor Joe happy?"
"My family has an ancestral horn. It is said that it can control sea monsters," the old crab said hesitantly.
"You're not even sure about your family's horn?" Tyrion said in surprise.
"I haven't seen any sea monsters for hundreds of years. Also, blowing the horn requires a special talent." The old crab looked at the Dragon Queen.
"The last time I looted … Ahem, when Rhys was trying the evil slave merchants, I also got a Sea Monster Horn.
I've studied it, and the runes inside are really effective. It's true that it can control sea monsters, but … "
Facing the old crab's hopeful gaze, Danny shook her head regretfully and said, "The Dragon Horn uses the soul of the old demigod dragon to intimidate ordinary Megalosaurus, just like how a wolf controls a pack of wolves.
However, the Sea Monster Horn only captures a part of the sea monster's soul and seals it in the horn, using the remnant soul of the sea monster to control that sea monster.
In other words, one horn can only control one sea monster. When the sea monster dies, the horn becomes a decoration. "
Tyrion gave an unusually flattering smile and said humbly, "Then, Your Majesty, can you create a new horn? Snatch You Lun's sea monster. "
Yep, this was the first time he met the Dragon Queen after the "betrayal of the revolution (slave liberation)".
"Sea monsters are useless to me," Danny said calmly.
Communicating with the Dragon Queen through the magic crystal, everyone could see her face, but everyone's expression was different.
Facing Tyrion, the Dragon Queen's expression was always cold, as if she did not want to talk to him.
"How can it be useless? A single sea monster can decide the outcome of a naval battle," he said with a mocking smile.
"If you have the time and energy to look for sea monsters, you might as well train."
The sea was vast and deep. How difficult would it be to find a single sea monster?
"What kind of magic can deal with sea monsters?" Aegon asked.
"The Megalosaurus feeds on sea monsters and dared to use the same method to deal with Qing Ting Island's fleet against Her Majesty. Her Majesty can easily teach You Lun a lesson!" the old crab said proudly.
"What about the pterosaur?" Aegon hurriedly asked.
"This … Why don't you try?" the old crab said uncertainly.
Try? Try with your life. If you fail, you won't be able to come back.
Aegon was stupefied.
"Actually, it's easy to deal with sea monsters," Danny said with a smile, "When the sea monsters break the ship like a towel, let the pterosaur descend from the sky and throw down a few cans of wildfire bombs. I guarantee the effect will be excellent.
Even if there's no pterosaur, store a few hundred pounds of wildfire and a few dozen bags of flour in the cabin. When the sea monsters attack, throw the flour all over the cabin and ignite the wildfire … Tsk tsk! "
In this fantasy world, even the Megalosaurus was not invincible, let alone the sea monsters.
Tyrion thought for a while and said, "It's worth a try."
"Aunt Danny, You Lun still has evil witchcraft. Do you have any way to counter it? I can't hide on Dragonstone Island forever, "Aegon said anxiously.
"The Storm's End Castle was built by the 'City Builder' Brandon. It's one of the only two evil-suppressing castles in the Westeros. You're neglecting the essentials by coming to Dragonstone Island to seek refuge."
"Oh, remember to guard the sewers. Don't let the wizards sneak into the inner castle from the bay," Danny reminded warmly.
There were so many aristocrats in the Westeros. Every aristocrat had a castle, but only Winterfell and the Storm's End Castle were protected by spells to prevent magic from entering the castle.
The Storm's End Castle was built to resist the divine punishment of the Sea God and Storm God.
"Wasn't Dragonstone Island built with Valleglia's stone? It can't defend against evil witchcraft? "Tyrion asked in surprise.
"Everyone has their own specialization. Dragonstone Island is impregnable, but its ability to suppress evil is far inferior to that of the Storm's End Castle.
Of course, now that there's a Magic Net Hub, I'll let whoever dares to cast Blood Witchcraft around Dragonstone Island know what it means to reap what you sow. "
"Do you have a protective talisman? I have to get married, and I have to lead the army to war. I can't stay in the Storm's End Castle forever, "Aegon asked.
Dragon Queen thought for a moment and said, "On the day of your wedding, I'll get someone to send you a set of enchanted steel armor!
Actually, it's easy to defend against Blood Witchcraft. Prepare more alert hunting dogs, and equip the guards with steel weapons … "
Before his cheap son grew up, Aegon had to protect his shield well.
"Aunt …" Aegon was extremely touched. He made a promise and said, "After I take over King's Landing, I'll bring Sansa to visit you personally."
Danny glanced at the dwarf. She thought to herself, 'You should bring Sansa to visit your uncle.'
"Your Majesty, you see …" The dwarf rubbed his hands and smiled sheepishly. "Can you —"
"No!" Danny knew what he wanted to say and rejected him without hesitation.
