Chapter Eighty-Seven: Killing and Annoying Internal Affairs
One of the largest buildings in Meereen, the Daznak Arena, which can accommodate more than 100,000 people, is filled with slaves and surrendered slave-owning nobles, the Immortal warriors guard the arena, and the streets are patrolled by Dothraki cavalry.
The middle of the arena was piled with cheese, roasted meat, dried fruits, grains and other foods, Chen Chong, Daenerys and others sat in the first row of seats in the arena, and when they saw that everyone had arrived, Chen Chong stood up and said loudly: "My Kalixi Daenerys brought you freedom and peace, but instead of thanking her, you secretly formed the Harpy organization to kill soldiers and freemen, and burned down buildings, what you did aroused my anger, today is the time for you to be judged!" ”
Chen Chong raised his hands and released his strange energy, and in the exclamation of everyone, many birds flew in the sky, and many rats also appeared from the sewers to gather in the middle of the arena.
A metal Harpy mask was still in the arena by the leader of the Unsullied Legion, Grey Bug, and Chen Zhong sent a message to the animals present: "I'm going to make a deal with you to find all the people in the city who have this kind of mask, or the people you have seen wearing this kind of mask, and if you find as many as you can exchange for the same volume of food." ”
The birds and rats quickly spread to the city, and they had already been ordered, and the Dothraki cavalry and unsullied warriors scattered throughout the city followed these animals, constantly bringing some people and well-hidden masks to the arena, and the food piled up in the arena continued to decrease, and more and more people were caught, and some of the slave owners and nobles sitting in the arena were also identified by the animals, and masks and daggers were also found on their bodies.
The capture continued until noon, when the animals removed all the food they deserved, and the number of Harpy sons in the field reached 1,000.
Chen Zhong said to Daenerys, who was ruddy-complexed by himself last night, "Let's start, call Rhaegar, Viserys, and Aegon over." ”
Daenerys picked up the gift her husband gave her - the dragon horn, the horn that no one else touched and did not react, when it reached Daenerys's hand, it magically changed, and the mysterious symbol carved on it began to glow, and when Daenerys blew it, the three dragons received the order and flew in front of Daenerys and Chen Chong.
The holy woman of the Giesian religion that the Meereen people believe in has been threatened by Chen Zhong last night, if she does not help maintain the rule of Mengo Kao, then all the temples of holy grace will be destroyed, so the holy woman who wants to preserve the inheritance of the sect can only say to the more than 1,000 children of the harpy in the field according to Chen Chong's meaning: "The god of Guise has sent a decree, the dragon is a magical creature that punishes sinners, and the souls of those who are burned by them will enter a hell full of magma and fire after death, and now the great Drogo Kao gives you a chance." If you can identify the hidden accomplices in the city, then you will not die under the dragon's flames. ”
Hearing the words of the Holy Maiden of the Guise Sect, who had always believed in him, the son of the Harpy Banshee in the field looked at the three demon dragons, and although his heart was full of fear, he still insisted on being silent.
The Grey Worm pulled a hundred men from the Harpy Sons with the Unsullied warriors, and Daenerys gave the order, the dragon's flames spraying them on, hissing in pain and the stench of burnt human bodies throughout the arena.
Touched the most by the rest of the Harpy Sons, seeing the tragic scene before them and thinking that their souls would continue to suffer after death, some of them ran out of the crowd and began to cry and confess their accomplices, and the Unsullied warriors captured them according to the names they had said.
Some of the more than 20 slave owners and aristocrats at the scene could not sit still, and some of these nobles were constantly identified by the people in the scene, and the voices of rebuttal and forgiveness rang out.
The matter was not over, and the Unsullied warriors pulled out a hundred more from those who had held on to their faith and refused to give in, and the repentant ones who had surrendered were taken aside, and the stubborn destroyers were then burned to death.
Most of the members of the Harpy Sons were nobles or loyal slaves, and as the designation continued, only five nobles were not identified, and Chen Zhong ordered that all nobles except these five nobles would be deprived of all status and property, and that Meereen, who had abolished slavery in the future, would be given nobility based on his military exploits and contributions.
Eliminating the opposition in the city, Chen Zhong left Sally and some of his warriors behind to guard Meereen, and led his army and Daenerys's three dragons to conquer the two nearby slave cities of Yuankai and Astapor, and faced with a large number of Dothraki cavalry and the legion of the Unsullied, Yuankai's slave owners voluntarily surrendered.
The slave owners of Astapo defended the city with a small number of slaves and tried to attack the Dothraki cavalry under Chen Zhong with their warships in the sea, but under the fire of the dragon, the ships involved in the resistance would be ignited, and after the city was breached, all the nobles who participated in the resistance were executed, their property was distributed to the brave warriors in battle, and a new number of nobles were rewarded.
After Chen Chong occupied the three cities of Slave Bay, the bay here was changed to Longma Bay, slavery was abolished in all cities, and the original nobles and the newly rising nobles formed a council to govern the city
Chen Zhong put down the file in his hand and sighed, because the three slave cities had just abolished slavery, many new problems had arisen, without the slave trade, there was no source of access to funds, and how to establish a new industrial pillar to maintain the economy and normal development of the city was the biggest problem.
It was not difficult for Chen Chong to lead the Dothraki people when he was already in charge, because the Dothraki people would grab whatever they needed, and now in the face of the material reserves, public security, religious beliefs, etc. of the three cities, which involved internal affairs and management, Chen Chong, who had not undergone systematic training and had no experience, said that he had a headache.
Among the members of the council now formed, the old nobles are wise and wise, and the newly promoted nobles are all unsullied warriors and Dothraki warriors, the former does not want to get ahead, and the latter has not received much education, and they are not of much help to themselves, how can they find some loyal people who are proficient in internal affairs?
Just when Chen Zhong had a headache, a merchant ship took two people to Longma Bay, and after getting off the merchant ship, the two walked towards Meereen City while chatting.
The man, wrapped in a robe and hooded, looked a little obese, and said, "Is Mengo really your old friend?" ”
The diminutive man replied, "He didn't admit it directly, but I trust my own judgment, and he is my only friend, Mengo." ”
"Well, I must admit, although the number of your friends is a little small, but the quality is good. But if it's really him, it doesn't seem to be good for me, but I have arrested him, and I won't spend the rest of my life in a black prison, right? ”
"Don't worry, I'll ask him for some beauties for you in the black cell."
"Don't you know that I am a eunuch? Don't you think it's inappropriate to give beautiful women? ”
"I heard that after staying with a beautiful woman for a long time, the eunuch will grow underneath, you can try it."
Before coming to the Great Pyramid, the two of them informed the guards of their names and origins, and when they heard that they were old friends of Mengo Kao, the guards hurriedly ran in to report it, and soon the two were taken to the throne room of the Great Pyramid by the Unsullied.
Chen took a few steps tightly, picked up the bearded dwarf, and said happily: "My friend, are you sent by the gods to help me because they heard my prayers?" ”
Tyrion laughed happily when he saw his old friend, and after motioning for Chen Zhong to put himself down, he said, "If the gods heard your prayers and made me flee here so miserable, then I would really hate you." ”
"Maybe the gods dozed off and chose the wrong way to get you here, but why did you flee here with Wallis? You became friends later? ”
The fat man took off the hood from his robe, his bare head shining in the firelight, and this was none other than the Eight-clawed Spider's Minister of Intelligence for King's Landing, the eunuch Wallis.
Wallis bowed and said, "I apologize for being disrespectful to Mengo in King's Landing, and I wouldn't have done that if I had recognized you." ”
Chen Zhong looked at Wallis and said with a smile: "If you had known that I had ruined many of your plans, I'm afraid you would have sent someone to kill me directly." ”
"Mistress Mengo-chan already knows?" Wallis said in surprise.
Chen Zhong pointed to his three wives and said, "I know a little bit, this is Daenerys who you want to win over Drogo Kao. Princess Targaryen, these two are the daughters of Prince Oberon of Dorne, and their sisters are Elaine, whom you plan to marry Viserys. Princess Martell is my wife. ”
Looking at Chen Chong's three wives, Wallis, who had been busy for half his life, said helplessly: "Maybe you are really the one favored by the gods, and our plan is so humble under the arrangement of fate. ”
"A wise man once said that people can plan something, but the end result is determined by the gods long ago. The two of you have worked hard from afar, please take a seat and try the food and wine of Meereen. ”
