Chapter 0625: Mercenary: The Frog Prince

Daenerys, Victorion, Macchiro, Missandei, Kiki, Riggie, and the others looked at the astonishing squire.

The squire came from the Ragged Prince's Wind Blow, nicknamed Frog. In the siege of Astapor, a mercenary army of more than 20 people from Westeros was the first to defect to Daenerys, and soon after, as the situation on the battlefield changed, the leader of the Wind Blowing Regiment, Prince Ragged, also led all his troops to surrender to Daenerys.

The boy, nicknamed Frog, was not tall, stocky and stocky, and had an ordinary appearance. His eyes were dark and shiny, his forehead and nose were equally pointed, and there were a few silver strands in his black hair. He has a strict personality and almost never smiles when he follows Daenerys. In the eyes of the intrepid Sir Barristan "the frog was a rare and most decent squire, loyal, serious, intellectual, meticulous, sincere, industrious, and responsible...... But the appearance is ordinary, and it is difficult to attract people's attention, whether it is a woman or a man. ”

One of the attendants suddenly knelt down to Daenerys and said he was a dragon.

The dragon species, the descendants of the dragon family.

"Who the hell are you?" Daenerys asked, her voice wary. He never suspected that 'Frog' had any other complicated identity.

"I am Prince Quentin Martell, Your Majesty. "My father is Prince Doran Martell of Dorne, and my mother is Melalio of Norphes, and I am their eldest son. β€œ

In Daenerys' astonished gaze, Quentin Martell pulled out a pin of his family crest: a golden gun that pierced through the red sun. The golden gun is the family crest of ancient Martell, the red sun symbolizes Namelia, the heroine of Royna, and the family motto is "indomitable".

"Kiki, go and call Sir Barristan. ”

There was a sound of footsteps, no need to scream, Barristan came up from the spiral staircase.

"Your Majesty, I heard the frog's words just now. I'm sorry, but I don't know him even though I'm from Westeros, so I can't know if what he says is true or not. β€œ

"I have proof of my identity, Sir Barristan. Quentin stood up and took out a sealed paper from his bosom, "This is a letter from my father, Prince Doro, to Your Majesty, and my black hair is mixed with silver threads, which are the blood of the Martell family, and the silver threads are from the Targaryen family. Our ancestors used to intermarry with each other, Your Majesty. ”

Missandei took Quentin's letter, opened it, and handed it to Daenerys.

Daenerys read the letter, which was written by Prince Dorou to Daenerys, and mentioned another very important thing: a marriage contract signed by William Darey and Oberon Martell, and testified by the Sea King of Braavos, which stipulated that Viserys Targaryen would marry Arlene Martell, the princess of Dorne, and that Dorne would fully support him when Viserys landed in Westeros to reclaim the Iron Throne.

The letter states that Dorne already knows that Prince Viserys is dead, and that Dorn says that the engagement is still valid, and that he hopes that Quentin will marry Daenerys as a continuation of the engagement and that Dorne will still support her in reclaiming the Iron Throne.

The letter mentions a man: William Dary. This almost flooded Daenerys's heart with deep emotions. William Darey is the only person in Daenerys' heart who is remembered as a relative.

Sir William Dary, the sword teacher of Crown Prince Rhaegar Targaryen, and a member of the Riverland Dari family. During Robert's rebellion, the Daree rebelled against their lords, the Tully family, choosing to be loyal to the House of Targaryen. His elder brother, Ser Jon Dary, is a member of the Kingsguard, and Barristan, Dawnsword, and Jaime Lannister are the white brothers.

In the year 283 of Aegon, Rhaegar Targaryen was killed in battle at the Red Fork. Soon after, his father, King Aerys, believed in Tywin Lannister and opened the gates, causing the royal family to be slaughtered and the Targaryen dynasty to an end.

Daenerys' mother fled to Dragonstone under the protection of William Daery, and the acting lord of Dragonstone decided to sacrifice the two children of House Targaryen to the incoming rebels. But a storm not seen in Westeros for hundreds of years prevented the arrival of Robert's navy.

On the night of the storm, Sir William Darey and four of his men escaped Dragonstone with Viserys and the newborn Daenerys, and miraculously escaped to Braavos in the midst of the stormy waves.

This is also the origin of Daenerys's many names, 'Stormborn'. Her mother died because she gave birth to her.

In Daenerys' memory, Sir William was a very short-tempered man, and every attendant and servant was very afraid of him, but as soon as he faced Daenerys, he would immediately be as gentle as a girl with a soft heart, and the fierce and furious disappeared without a trace, and his face was full of affectionate smiles, and he always called her 'the lovely little princess'.

But soon Sir William Dyree fell ill, his hair quickly turned gray, and his eyes began to be blind. A few years later, William was so ill that he couldn't get out of bed and was half-blind. But as soon as he spoke, the servants were still trembling and terrified.

Under the protection of Sir William Daery, Daenerys grew up healthy and carefree until William Darey finally died of illness. After Sir William's death, the servants stole all the money and belongings, leaving their two children behind. Since then, Viserys and Daenerys have been living on the streets, helpless and begging. It wasn't until he met Illyrio Mopatis, the governor of Pentos, that he finally had a place to live temporarily.

Daenerys has no impression of her mother, who died shortly after she was born. As for her father and Rhaeggar, her father and eldest brother died before she was born. The only family member is Viserys, but Viserys was stupid and arrogant later, and only used her as a bargaining chip for the restoration of the country, as for her life and death, honor, self-esteem, coldness, hunger and thirst...... Never take it to heart.

In Daenerys's heart, there is only one person in the world who really raised her to protect her and love herβ€”Sir William Darry.

For the first time in so many years, she saw William Darey's name on a letter, and she almost wanted to cry, but she held back, her face was expressionless, and she maintained the momentum and dignity of the queen.

"Prince Quentin Martell. Daenerys said, "I saw a letter from Prince Michiro saying that you had brought a marriage contract. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. Quentin took a document out of his bosom again, and Daenerys took it, opened it, and it was indeed a marriage contract.

It was a contract signed by Sir William Dyree and Prince Oberon Martell, with King Braavos as a witness, and Daenerys was clever and clever, and although she had not been with William for a long time, she recognized William's handwriting.

In the years following William's death, Daenerys missed everything about Sir William, his gray hair, his blindness, the songs he sang loudly when he drank, his handwriting.

William Darey was also Viserys' swordsmanship teacher and Daenerys' first teacher of reading and writing.

He is one of the softest corners of Daenerys's heart that will never be forgotten.

William Dary's handwriting proves that this was a true marriage contract: Arrene Martell, the eldest daughter of House Martell, married Viserys Targaryen of House Targaryen.

William was a representative of the House of Targaryen, Oberon Martell was a representative of the Martell family, and the witness of the marriage deed was the ruler of Braavos: Aquaman!

Daenerys gave the deed to Missandei for safekeeping: "Prince Quentin, what about your retinue?"

In Dorne, Araine Martell, who mutined at Halberd City, and others believed that Quentin served under the Earl of Ellenwood, who was stationed at the Bones. But in fact he had secretly crossed the Narrow Sea on his father's orders.

"Your Majesty, while crossing the Narrow Sea, I encountered pirates, and my squires and I fought them off, but my staples Sir Cletus Ellenwood and Sir William Wells were killed, and I was the only one with me, Ser Archibald Ehrenwood, whose attendant was wounded in the naval battle, and who was not easy to heal in the sea, and then we arrived at Valantis, where Maester Caedri died of illness. We heard the news of His Majesty's presence in Slave Bay in Valantis, but because His Majesty was against the slave trade, no merchant ship dared to dock at Slave Bay, so we joined the Wind Blowing Group in Valantis and followed the Wind Blowing Group to Meereen. His Majesty knew what happened next. β€œ

"Oh, and what about your Sir Archibald?"

"He's on one of the battleships of the Wind Blowing Regiment, Your Majesty. ”

"Call him here, you are the prince of Dorne, and you can't be without the protection of the guards. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. ”

Soon Sir Archibald Ellenwood arrived, accompanied by the Ragged Prince. Archibald was six and a half feet tall, broad in shoulders, round in belly, legs as thick as tree trunks, hands as thick as ham, and neckless. His arms were as thick as those of the strong man Beworth. The illness he contracted as a child left him with all his hair and bald like a smooth pink pebble.

This is a fierce general of Dorne!Warhammer, a rarity in Dorne, who is known for his strength!

"Your Majesty, I hope that the marriage contract will be renewed, that the contract will remain valid, and that Dorne will fully support His Majesty in reclaiming the Iron Throne. Quentin Martell said.

*

Daenerys really has no female 'interest' in Quentin Martell, Quentin's appearance is too ordinary, no matter how you look at it, he is an honest child of a farmer's family, not Prince Dorne's prince. His temperament is not indistinguishable as an aristocracy.

Upon hearing the news, Varys remained silent, he was the mastermind who secretly led the contract, but it was all done underwater, and Sir William Darey, Prince Oberon Martell, and the Sea King eighteen years ago are no longer alive.

There is no basis for empty words, and too much talk will attract the suspicion of Her Majesty.

Varys coldly observes how Daenerys responds to Prince Quentin Martell.

In Daenerys's heart, another voice rang out, and this voice came from the mysterious Shadowbinder from Asha, whom she met in Quells, a woman in a wood-lacquered mask.

"The glass candle is lit, and the pale mare will come, and the rest will follow. The sea monster and the black flame, the lion and the griffin, the child of the sun and the dragon of the play, all of them are not to be believed. Remember the Immortals, and beware of the Fragrant Steward. ”

Child of the Sun - Did Quentin Martell confirm the prophecy of the Child of the Sun?!

The family crest of the Martell family is a golden gun that pierces through the scorching sun. The ancestor of the Martell family, Namelia, the heroine of the Roynards, is known as the Sun. It was she who led 2,000 ships across the Narrow Sea to Dorne, and unified the whole of Dorne for the first time after marrying the Martell family, creating the history of Dorne's kingdom belonging to the Martell family.

Quesh, the Shadowbinder from Asha, warns Daenerys that neither the Children of the Sun nor the Dragons of the Drama can be trusted. Fragrant tubes are available, but be careful.

Daenerys couldn't see exactly what harm Quentin Martell could do her, but she decided not to answer Quentin Martell's request for marriage, not to refuse, but not to answer.

Daenerys looked at Barristan, who she could see that Barristan wanted her to agree to the marriage, and that the Kingsguard wanted Dornemartell's support, and she looked at Varys, the fragrant steward, who smiled and couldn't see his inner inclinations, and at the late Prime Minister, who showed interest in her, and the Prime Minister wanted her to marry Dorne......

"Commander Victorleon, give Prince Quentin a warship and give him an iron-armed hundred-man regiment to escort him, under the command of Ser Archibald Ellenwood. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. Victor said respectfully.

"Kiki, from now on, you stay by the prince's side and take care of his food and daily life. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. ”

Kiki is one of Daenerys's three personal maids-in-waiting, and she is a sister to the Queen.

"Prince Quentin, if you need anything, you can come to me directly and explain it to me. If I'm not there, just tell the Prime Minister. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Quentin Martell put his right fist on his left chest and bowed his head.

"You are a child, you don't understand anything, and you want to marry Her Majesty. Dario laughed.

"Dario, don't be rude to the prince. Daenerys snapped.

Dario's smile suddenly stiffened on his face, and he shrugged his shoulders awkwardly and stepped aside.

Quentin said, "Your Majesty, in the Seven Kingdoms, there is a fairy tale about a prince who has been enchanted and turns into a frog, and only after receiving a kiss from true love can he become a prince again. I have come to His Majesty and have been serving His Majesty in the name of a frog, and I look forward to a sincere response from His Majesty. Dorne's loyalty, Dorne's soldiers and financial resources belong to His Majesty. ”

Daenerys bowed slightly.

"Your Majesty, apart from marriage, I wish I could become a dragon knight of Your Majesty. In my blood, I have the blood of the Targaryens. The ancestors of the Martell family and the ancestors of the Targaryen family have been married many times, and the silver hair in my black hair is proof that I am a dragon, Your Majesty. ”

"I'll give you a chance to get close to Rego and Viserys, Prince. Let's talk about the old days today, Commander Victarion, and take the prince to take over his warship. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" said Victor and Quentin with their right fist on their left chest.

The Ragged Prince had an excited smile on his face, he didn't expect that one of the two wandering mercenaries he had taken in Valantis would be a prince.

He excitedly followed Quentin Martell.

During the siege of Astapor, Prince Ragged deliberately ordered a mercenary group of more than 20 people led by Quentin to surrender to Godaenerys first, in order to surrender if the battle was not good. He's a slick old thief who is used to going right and left. Now that he saw that Quentin might soon become the Queen's husband, he immediately followed Quentin and made up his mind to get on good terms with Quentin Martell.

Quentin Martel - is it the child of the sun in Quixie's mouth?

Seeing Quentin, Victarion, Prince Ragged, Archibad, and Kiki disembark and leave, Daenerys said to Barristen, "Sir Barristan, when the ship docks, I will leave, and after I leave the fleet, you will be responsible for persuading Prince Quentin Martell to return to Dorne." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Barristan regretted in his heart, believing that if Quentin Martell had been a handsome young man, he would have been married.

"Your Majesty, in this way, perhaps we will lose the support of Dorne, which will be very detrimental to our conquest of Westeros. Varys said softly.

Daenerys was silent for a moment, "Lord Tyrion, I can't marry Prince Quentin, but I don't want to lose Dorne's support, do you have a good way to do both?"

Varys whispered, "Your Majesty, I know that there is one of the most memorable enemies in all of Dorne, but who cannot be avenged: the Magic Mountain and his wife. If Your Majesty wants to get Dorne's allegiance without marriage, I think the best way is to kill the Magic Mountain and his wife, Janine Westerling. ”
