Chapter 976: Return to King's Landing

King's Landing, the capital of the Seven Kingdoms and one of the most important port cities in the entire continent of Westeros, has now recovered from war and chaos, and the market is once again filled with a large number of merchants and nobles who have come here from elsewhere to enjoy a luxurious life.

Although the nobles of the West, led by the Lannisters, still rely on Castle Rock and refuse to swear allegiance to Queen Daenerys Targaryen, and the Vale is ambiguous under the covert control of Petyr "Littlefinger" Berish, the rest of the world has accepted the fact that the Targaryens are once again the rulers of the land.

The reason is simple!

A dragon named Kulo Kirba hovered over King's Landing, proclaiming to the world what was truly unrivaled power, and not even an arrow made of Valyrian steel could scratch the violet scales.

No one knew what it took to defeat a dragon that wouldn't hurt at all, and no one could understand what it meant to be a divine being.

The only thing they knew was that the dragon's original owner, Mason, had become the richest ruler of the riverbend region, destroying several ancient nobles who had been rooted there for hundreds of years, and was by far Her Majesty's only legitimate husband.

But later, I don't know why, this man whose identity is very suspicious actually left quietly after becoming famous.

Some believe that he and Her Majesty Daenerys were at odds, and the two sides eventually broke up.

There are also people who believe that he had to disappear from the eyes of the world because he was **** to prevent the royal power from being usurped again.

But there is only one person who understands that Mason's departure has nothing to do with all the rumors, and he has his own pursuit and life goals, and this person is Daenerys Targaryen, who is the queen.

Standing at the top of the Red Keep, the young queen was looking down at the bustling port of King's Landing, and without looking back, she asked the inseparable "Red Viper" Oberon Martell: "The Lannisters still refuse to surrender like me, right?"

"Yes, Your Majesty. Oberon Martell bent down and bowed gracefully.

Although his private life is very debauched, he doesn't dare to have any thoughts about this noble and beautiful woman in front of him.

Not only him, but almost all the adult males of the great nobles did not dare to have delusions in this regard.

The reason is very simple, every time someone approaches the queen with some ulterior motives, they are all burned to ashes by Long Yan without exception.

It is estimated that in the eyes of the magic dragon, only its owner is the queen's only consort.

"So what do you think we should do next? Send out an army to uproot them completely?" Daenerys frowned subconsciously.

"Of course, should they be allowed to continue to reign as kings? Only one king is needed for this continent, and the rest will either be submitted or destroyed. You have overwhelming power, so why don't you make an example, and don't forget, Petyr Berish of the Vale is still watching you. At this time, as long as he shows the slightest weakness, he will think that he still has a chance. Oberon sneered and gave advice.

Due to blood feuds, the Martell family and the Lannister family have long been undying enemies, so if there is anyone who wants to destroy Castle Rock the most, it must be him.

If the circumstances permitted, the famous "Red Viper" would not mind killing all the people with the surname Lannister, from the elderly in their seventies and eighties to the newborn babies.

In a world where everything depends on bloodline and origin, cutting off bloodlines is the only way to prevent a resurgence.

As for moral condemnations such as ferocity and brutality, it was simply not painful for the nobles, and it did not even affect their reputation.

"But at today's Imperial Council, some people think that I shouldn't push the Lannisters too hard. On the contrary, I should be more tolerant and merciful, so that they will soon choose to surrender rather than resist. Daenerys had a hesitant look in her eyes.

You don't have to ask to know that her infantile disease has exploded again.

As a young woman with no systematic education and no experience in governance, she is full of two contradictions called beautiful fantasy and cruel reality.

On the one hand, she longs for everyone's respect and affection, and doesn't want to cause too much killing and destruction.

On the other hand, she lacks a deep understanding of politics, military affairs, and economics, and is unable to play with power like a truly qualified king and firmly control the country in her own hands.

In fact, unless there is a dragon to deter all those with bad intentions, this Queen Majesty will either be overthrown or hollowed out, or reduced to the plaything of some ambitious people.

"My Majesty, the king must not only show a benevolent side, but also a cold and cruel side, otherwise he will never be able to deter the nobles who are eager to expand their power. Think about how many merciful things you've done since you ascended the throne, but what about the cruel and cruel things? Hardly any of them have been done. Believe me, this country needs your ruthlessness and cruelty right now. "Oberon continued to exert his influence in an attempt to change the Queen's mind.

The so-called feudal system is essentially a political game between the aristocracy and the aristocracy, and each great nobleman tries to achieve ulterior motives such as attacking opponents by influencing the royal family.

In their eyes, there is no concept of a state at all, families and fiefs are fundamental, and in many cases, as long as they can ensure that their territories and property are not lost, it is not a big deal to change their allegiance.

"Okay, I see, please give me some time to think about it. Daenerys waved her hand lightly, signaling for the other to step back.

When the "Red Viper" had completely left, she sighed and said to herself in a voice that only she could hear: "Mason, my dear husband, what would you do if it were yours?"

......

At the same time, in an inconspicuous alley in King's Landing's flea nest, two men dressed out of place quietly appeared, one of them was Zhang Cheng, and the other knew it was definitely Warrente without asking.

Feeling the pair of vigilant eyes around him, Zhang Cheng asked with a smile: "How is it, is it still to your taste here?"

"Aha! a world full of medieval atmosphere! Poor commoners, poor aristocrats, and dissolute women, from the first impression, very good. But I need to dig into it for a few days, after all, it's a life-long choice for me. ”

Warrent looked around with great interest, not realizing that Westeros was only a part of the world of A Song of Ice and Fire, and it did not represent the average level of supernatural power in this world, let alone show that it was as safe as it seemed on the surface.
