Sansa looked rather pitiful. Her face was pale and her eyes were dim. She had lost a lot of weight, but her stomach was bloated, making her body look even thinner.
When Jon came in, she was sitting in front of the window, staring blankly at the brightly lit castle below. It was as if she was chasing after familiar people and things in her memory.
After talking excitedly for a while, she didn't react for a moment. She turned around and asked blankly, "What did you say?"
Seeing his sister's lifeless eyes, he felt a sharp pain in his heart. He squeezed out a soft smile and said softly, "Sansa, at the banquet, Danny Rize asked me about you and the child. She was very concerned and didn't mean any harm as we suspected."
"Are you sure?" Sansa asked doubtfully.
Jon nodded and sighed. "She's completely different from her father, the Mad King. She's a truly benevolent and magnanimous queen.
When I first met her at the Wall, I was worried that she would burn me to death because of the previous generation's blood feud. But she didn't.
She's very fair. She believes that the feud between the parents shouldn't affect the younger generation. The guilty will also receive a fair trial.
That's why I'm fine. Stannis doesn't need to suffer her revenge for his actions during the War of the Usurpers.
After that, the Dragon Queen didn't do anything to you or Rickon. She even allowed Aegon and Stark to marry. "
Sansa hesitated. "But Illyrio clearly used Danny Rize and Viserys as shields to cover for Aegon …"
Uh, Sansa also understood Illyrio's sinister intentions toward the dragon siblings.
It didn't take much intelligence.
After Aegon's identity was revealed, everyone understood that Illyrio's ultimate goal was to help his son ascend the Iron Throne.
Then, his "efforts" to help Danny Rize and her brother restore their country were too conspicuous.
Jon said thoughtfully, "Danny Rize planned to convene the council a long time ago. She once told me that regarding the feud between Targaryen and Stark … such as our grandfather and uncle being killed by the Mad King, she would give a fair verdict at the council.
Even if our father overthrew the Targaryen dynasty, she would restore our grandfather's honor.
She could even give a fair verdict for the murder of her father and the destruction of her country. I believe that she would only judge Illyrio personally. After all, Aegon was kept in the dark. "
"Does that mean she forgave Aegon?" Sansa's blue eyes glowed.
"Not only did she forgive me, she also announced that she still recognizes the other branch of Targaryen that Aegon founded," he said with a forced smile.
"Really?" Sansa's eyes twinkled like stars.
Chan nodded and said happily, "At the Grand Council, Daenerys will also make the final judgment on the Black Fire rebellion.
She will divide the Targaryens into different branches, just like what Aegon did that day.
So, Aegon will still be Aegon Targaryen, a separate branch from Danny Rize's Targaryen clan. Your child will still be a 'Targaryen' recognized by the Dragon Queen.
You and your child will inherit Aegon's everything! "
"Everything …" Sansa's eyes sparkled. "Everything, what does it include?"
Jon was stunned. "What does Aegon have left? Two pterosaurs and the gold and silver he plundered from River Rapture, and maybe Harren Castle. "
"No, there's still Storm's End!" Sansa gritted her teeth. "Stannis lied to all of us. He said he wanted to return to Storm's End, but he attacked and took the valley.
Since he took the valley, Storm's End still belongs to Aegon. "
"But …" Jon hesitated. "Stannis only promised to give Harren Castle to your child."
"What's the point of that promise!" Not only did Sansa regain her vitality, she even turned into a lioness. She roared, "I fulfilled all my promises, but how did he treat Aegon?"
His embarrassed dog butt face became embarrassed again.
"Stannis is at his peak now. I'm afraid you won't be able to take Storm's End," he said softly.
"Storm's End is in the hands of the Golden Corps. Although they've been crippled, they still have close to six thousand members." Sansa also lowered her voice.
Jon took a deep look at his sister and said in a deep voice, "Stannis has a large army of winged dragons. The only reason he hasn't taken down Storm's End is because he hasn't put his attention back on Storm's End yet."
Sansa's expression changed and she fell silent.
After a while, she asked sullenly, "I heard the whole castle shouting 'Long live Stannis, the God of War' and 'Three Gods Army'. What's going on?"
Jon pulled his sister to sit on the couch by the fireplace and told her everything that happened today.
Sansa's eyes brightened. In an instant, thousands of thoughts flashed through her mind.
"I understand. Protecting Winterfell is the most important thing now." She nodded. "I'll meet Danny and Rize tomorrow. I won't mention Storm's End again."
.....
Mountain Paradise, Holy Sparrow's floating continent.
The situation where there was only one Holy Church in the vast grassland had changed. Sparrow's City was now divided into three rings.
The Holy Church was in the center of the Inner Ring. Around the Holy Church was an exquisite two-story marble building.
It was a villa with a garden at the front and a swimming pool at the back.
The Second Ring was about five kilometers away from the Holy Church. There were few buildings and no plans.
The Third Ring was fifteen kilometers away from the Holy Church. At the edge, there was a large construction site that could accommodate hundreds of people.
Overall, the Holy Church had more than a thousand people than when Aegon had first entered it, but it still seemed very empty.
However, after the Dragon Queen had obtained 1% of the Green Prophet's Seal, the requirement for believers to ascend to Heaven had been lowered from 200 to 100. Recently, there were new believers knocking on the door of Mountain Paradise every few days.
King Aegon, who was wearing a neat gray robe and had his hair combed back like the Sparrow's, once again welcomed a believer's Heroic Spirit from the foot of the mountain.
Looking at the old man who was looking around in panic, Aegon frowned.
The last time he ascended to Heaven, he was listening to the angelic song. His body was bathed in holy light and his heart was at peace.
For some reason, there was no singing or holy light at this moment. Even the gate of Mountain Paradise did not show any sign. The Heroic Spirit who came here would inevitably be confused.
While thinking that, Aegon put on a gentle smile and introduced, "I am a guide from Heaven. Fellow disciple, congratulations on being summoned by the Holy Mother to the Heaven of the Seven Gods."
"Ah, I'm in Heaven?" The tall old man with gray hair was not overjoyed. Instead, he was greatly shocked. Pointing at his nose, he asked, "Are you saying that I'm dead?"
Suddenly, Aegon realized why the Big Sparrow came to him one day and hired him as an "unofficial assistant guide" after a new Heroic Spirit was welcomed.
Without the miracles of Mountain Paradise in the human world, the work of guide was truly boring and … lowly.
Ah, the Seven Gods above, the Holy Mother is merciful, forgive my disrespect!
Hardly had he complained when Aegon recited the Seven Stars Bible and confessed to the Holy Mother devoutly.
"What's your last memory?" Aegon's smile was as gentle as the spring breeze.
"Ah …" The tall old man thought for a moment and immediately understood. "I died of illness! Before I died, Meribad sat by my bed, held my hand, and said, 'Holy Mother, please forgive my cowardice.'
I didn't expect Saint Meribad's words to be so effective. Am I in Heaven? "
Meribad?
An old acquaintance!
Aegon raised his eyebrows. It seemed that the new Heroic Spirit came from the Three Rivers Basin.
"That's right. You're in Heaven. This is Mountain Paradise. I'm a guide. Have you read the Seven Stars Bible? Do you know Mountain Paradise and the Heroic Spirit Guide Angel? "
The old man nodded and smiled, revealing his missing front teeth. "Yes, I have. Ever since the Holy Mother appeared, I have devoutly read every version of the Seven Stars Bible. I have even recited the New Seven Stars Scripture by the Dragon Queen of Slave Bay hundreds of times."
"Then come with me!" Aegon waved his hand, and a white jade staircase shimmering with golden light descended from the sky. The top connected to the unknown world with floating white clouds.
The old man asked carefully, "Lord Angel, I heard that when the fake Crown Prince Aegon died, Mountain Paradise appeared. There was holy music from Heaven and golden light that cleansed the soul. Why did I come here directly?
Also, the Heavenly Guide last time seemed to be the Holy Sparrow. May I ask, who are you? Saint Bailey? "
Aegon turned around and looked at him indifferently. "I'm the fake Crown Prince you spoke of, Aegon."
“What？！！！！”
The old man's body tilted and he almost fell down the holy staircase.
Fortunately, the staircase was wide. The old man staggered and only fell once.
"Are you a fake guide? Is this a fake Heaven?!" he shouted in panic.
"Blasphemy!" Aegon flew into a rage. "I should summon the Stranger and take you away from Heaven!"
He wasn't trying to scare people. Before the old man could react, Aegon's face turned solemn. He began to recite the incantation for the dead in the Book of the Stranger quickly.
Then, a mysterious force descended on the old man and was about to take him away.
Yes, this was the backup plan left by the Holy Mother Danny. Any soul that blasphemed the seven gods or doubted the authenticity of Heaven would be driven out of Heaven due to the decrease in their piety. Then, their spiritual essence would be broken down by the Spiritual Bestowment Spell and finally digested and absorbed by Blackie.
It was very harsh.
"Ah, don't, don't, let's talk nicely." The old man's body flickered, and he crawled forward with a terrified expression. He grabbed Aegon's gray robe and shouted, "Your Majesty Aegon, I'm your subject. Please spare me this time!"
Aegon frowned and stopped.
It wasn't because of their former friendship, but because the old man's body flickered, which meant that his piety didn't decrease.
His piety didn't decrease, which meant that his previous words weren't blasphemous.
"This is Holy Heaven. You can speak freely, but you're not allowed to blaspheme the seven gods. Do you understand?" Aegon scolded sternly.
"I understand, I understand." The old man wiped the sweat off his forehead, got up, and said with a bitter smile, "I was too open when I saw an acquaintance."
Hearing this, Aegon couldn't help but think of himself in the past.
Because he had discovered the identity of the Big Sparrow, his tone and attitude had become casual.
Thinking of this, his tone became gentler. "What's your name? What was your title when you were alive? Why haven't I seen you before? "
Seeing that Aegon was willing to chat with him, the old man was completely relaxed. "I'm from the Cox family in Hejian Saltworks Town. My name is Quincy. I'm just a knight with a title."
"Quincy Cox from Saltworks Town?" Aegon frowned and thought for a while. He finally remembered this person.
"Seven gods above, why didn't a coward like you go to the seven levels of hell?" He exclaimed.
