Of course, Sansa could also announce that she was another Targaryen, but that would only be considered as a "self-proclaimed". Compared to the Dragon Queen's "official announcement", it was a few hundred streets away.
"Of course." The Dragon Queen easily satisfied her fake niece's expectations. "Not only will I announce this publicly, I will also trace it back to the source and return you an ancestor."
"Return me an … ancestor?" Sansa was overjoyed and shocked. She opened her mouth and widened her eyes. Her face was filled with confusion.
"Think about it. Why is Kharon Stark the publicly recognized branch of the Stark family?" Danny reminded her.
"Because …" Sansa gradually woke up from her confusion and said thoughtfully, "Because everyone knows that Kharon Stark was established by Karon Stark. All Kharon Stark are Karon's descendants.
So, the Targaryen branch that my child and I represent must have a 'Targaryen' that everyone recognizes. "
A look of admiration flashed past Danny's eyes. This little green tea has a nimble mind. She can follow my train of thought.
"Yes, that's right."
"Can Daemon Black Fire the First do it?" Sansa asked.
"No, he's still lacking. He hasn't become a king, and he hasn't completely gotten rid of the shadow of being an illegitimate child. He's not qualified to start another Targaryen branch." Danny shook her head.
"Who's qualified?" Sansa asked doubtfully.
Daemon Black Fire was already the ancestor of the Black Fire branch. Who else could be more representative than him?
"Aegon Targaryen the Fourth." "Dany breathed out a name that made Sansa's jaw drop.
"The Mediocre King? Let the Mediocre King become the ancestor of our branch? "Sansa said in disbelief.
This wasn't a pie falling from the sky, but a roasted suckling pig!
It was true that the Mediocre King was mediocre, but he was a proper Targaryen King. If Aegon was considered to be his direct descendant, what did that mean?
"That's right, it's the Mediocre King Aegon. He's the father of Daimon Black Fire, and he personally announced that Daimon Black Fire is his successor.
Since that's the case, let's make Daemon Black Fire the successor of the Mediocre King Aegon. "
Danny generously gave away an ancestor. Sansa was overjoyed. "Thank you, Aunt Danny."
Uh, after obtaining the recognition of the Dragon Queen, Aegon Mopatis once again became Aegon Targaryen. In terms of seniority, he was about the same as Shireen, one generation lower than Danny.
Danny waved her hand, looking indifferent.
Not to mention the Mediocre King, if possible, I'd even give you the Mad King. Oh, that's not right. The Mad King can't be given to Sansa. He's a dwarf.
King Aegon's Targaryen was only the first example, and not the only Targaryen branch.
In the future, the dwarves would definitely be given a 'Targaryen Ancestor', and the Mad King would be one of them.
If Jon's identity was revealed, he would also be given one.
If any other Targaryens came looking for him, it wouldn't be a problem to divide the 'Targaryen Ancestor' cleanly.
.....
The Dragon Queen did as she said. Before lunch, she announced this in front of all the nobles in the hall.
Mediocre King Aegon created a new Targaryen branch, using a brand new emblem and language.
King Aegon had previously changed the emblem: a black sword was added to the claw of a three-headed red dragon on a black background.
The new Targaryen was also called 'Black Sword Targaryen'.
Aegon the Fourth was the first master of the Black Sword Targaryen. Daimon Black Fire changed his name to Daimon Targaryen. He was the only successor of the Mediocre King, and also the second master of the Black Sword Targaryen.
"But, Mediocre King Aegon is also your direct ancestor!"
The nobles of the Northern Territory were naturally stunned, and someone raised a question.
If he wasn't a direct ancestor, I wouldn't even bother to kick him out of the family tree!
Danny waved her hand and said bluntly, "I am the founder of the Empire. I don't need any inheritance from Mediocre King Aegon."
Hearing the Dragon Queen's words, the nobles fell silent.
What inheritance could Mediocre King Aegon leave behind?
It was nothing more than bloodline and Targaryen orthodoxy in name, as well as the legal right to inherit the Iron Throne of the Targaryen Dynasty.
Did the Dragon Queen need any of these things?
Everyone knew of "Conqueror" Aegon. In the future, the Targaryens were also proud of the title of "Descendant of Aegon the Conqueror".
Who cared who Aegon the Conqueror's father was?
Not to mention Mediocre King Aegon, even if it was Aegon the Conqueror, Danny wouldn't mind giving him away.
Her descendants wouldn't care about her current actions either, because "Dragon Queen" Danny Rize would leave "Aegon the Conqueror" behind by a few hundred universes.
.....
The establishment of the Black Sword Targaryen family was sensational.
If it was any other time, this news would be enough to shock the entire Westeros noble circle.
But today, when the deviant ghosts were about to reach the city, the nobles of the Northern Territory could only lament that "Dragon Queen is benevolent and magnanimous" before wholeheartedly preparing for war.
Not long after lunch, the dusky sky of Winterfell was suddenly covered by a "black cloud". The soldiers looked up and saw dozens of Winged Dragons carrying large wooden boxes.
"Ah, it's Dragon Queen's Winged Dragon Army!"
"Dragonstone Island's Dragon Crystal Weapons are here!"
Seeing the large white seven-pointed star on the wings of the Winged Dragons, everyone understood the origin of the Winged Dragon Army.
Indeed, Dragonstone Island's Dragon Crystal Weapons were here.
Besides the Dragon Crystal Weapons, Danny's Centaur maidservants, Blood Brotherhood Guards, and a small portion of the Slave Bay Knights were also here.
They might not participate in the war, but the opportunity to witness the battle between the deviant ghosts and the deviant ghost king was too precious. Danny didn't want them to miss it.
To put it bluntly, they were a group of military observers from Slave Bay.
Know your enemy and yourself, and you will never be defeated.
The last Long Night was 8,000 years ago. Not to mention the historical records, scholars didn't even acknowledge that the Westeros had 8,000 years of history, much less the existence of the Long Night and deviant ghosts.
If not for the Dragon Queen changing the plot, the kings of the seven kingdoms and the beggars on the streets wouldn't have known anything about the deviant ghost generals.
Only after experiencing a large-scale battle like the "Defense of Winterfell" could the generals of Slave Bay have a more direct and accurate understanding of the Long Night.
This was only the first batch of observers. There would be more coming.
Besides the generals, Danny was also a member of the military observers. She also needed to understand the true power of the deviant ghost king.
— — If she didn't understand the deviant ghosts, the Corpse Ghost Army, and the deviant ghost king, how could she formulate a strategy to counter it?
"Watch more, listen more, learn more, speak less, and don't risk your life!"
Dragon Queen gathered her subordinates and expressed her attitude towards the battle of Winterfell.
.....
"Queen Danny Lilith, there's a situation." Embarrass looked solemn as he held a stack of letters and hurried to the guest castle.
Besides Embarrass, there were a few Earls of the Northern Territory. Even Eide Amber was there.
Hmm, the creatures of Hearthstone Castle were sent to White Harbor by the Winged Dragon Legion of Dragonstone Island. They didn't go to Winterfell, which was destined to be the battlefield.
Then, the Winged Dragon Legion flew to Dragonstone Island. When they returned with the Dragon Crystal, Eide Amber had already settled down his subjects and family. He led 30 guards back to Winterfell on the Winged Dragon Legion.
This was discussed before leaving Hearthstone. Eide Amber intended to fulfill his duty as a vassal and help the King of the Northern Territory defend Winterfell.
.....
"The Tribal Tribe in the forest north of the Wolfwood Forest is a messenger crow. They have encountered deviant ghosts. Including Kahold City and Deepwood Castle, four territories have been invaded by deviant ghosts.
Winterfell is in the center of the Northern Territory, towards the south. Hence, I guess that the deviant ghost army is only a few hundred kilometers away from Winterfell. There might even be deviant ghosts lurking in the nearby Wolfwood Forest. "
"Your Majesty, I have a premonition that the battle will happen within a week." Jon looked solemn as he passed the letter to Dragon Queen.
"Deviant ghosts run really fast. They can cover two to three thousand kilometers in a week." Danny sighed.
Jon said bitterly, "Deviant ghosts aren't humans. They don't need supplies. As long as they don't encounter obstacles that are difficult to overcome, even the lowest level of Corpse Ghost can go without food or water and won't feel tired. It's normal for them to run 24 hours a day. "
"You asked me to come because of Stannis?" Danny's expression was strange. "He should have reached Winterfell by now. Is he delayed by something?"
— Is Erlu going back on his word? But I've already spread the news of the battle between the three Gods and the Deviant Ghost King. If he goes back on his word now, won't his reputation be tarnished?
Helplessly thought of this possibility and said to Danny, "Your Majesty, do you think we should go to the valley to urge him?"
"He's your King. You should go." Danny shook her head.
— But you're the one who told me about the battle between the three Gods and the Deviant Ghosts!
Helplessly, some things had to be said clearly. "Your Majesty, I'll be honest. I did swear loyalty to him and even arranged for two thousand Northern Knights to follow him to the Iron Throne.
But after Aegon was burned, there was no more trust between us. Our relationship is very strained. "
"You think I'm on good terms with him?" Danny asked with a wooden face.
"Eh, Karhold?!"
Suddenly, she saw a letter from the scholar of Karhold from Jon. "Around three in the morning, countless dead people surrounded the castle. They're deviant ghosts! The legend is true. There really are deviant ghosts. We were wrong. The scholar was wrong. Seven Gods, Karhold is finished! "
"Three in the morning …" Danny's expression turned ugly. "When did you receive this letter?"
"Yesterday afternoon. You just came to Winterfell. What's wrong?" Jon was puzzled.
Eide Amber was surprised. "Your Majesty, did you go to Karhold after leaving Hearthstone yesterday morning?"
"I've been there, but it's peaceful there. There's smoke everywhere. There's not a single ghost outside the city." Danny's voice was faint.
"Ah, the Thurnes are that strong? They defeated the deviant ghosts? "Eide Amber's young face showed a hint of shame.
He couldn't defend Hearthstone, but the Thurnes, whom he had always looked down on and cursed, defended Karhold. This …
Lord Eel glanced at the boy and thought. "Maybe the Thurnes have Dragon Crystal weapons. They're used to fighting the ghosts.
After all, it's not impossible for two thousand Thurnes to defend the city against an army of twenty to thirty thousand ghosts. “
Danny was stunned for a moment before she found the information about the Thurnes from the corner of her memory.
"What's the relationship between the Thurnes and the Thurnes? Isn't Karhold Stark's castle? "
As soon as she said that, the atmosphere became a little strange. The counts of the North all looked at the King of the North with a solemn expression.
"Stark Stark has no male heirs. Yali Ka Stark is the only legal heir of Karhold. She married the head of the Thurnes family, Saigon …" Jon calmly explained the situation in Karhold.
Danny suddenly realized that she didn't know him anymore.
Or rather, she had never recognized him before?
