Chapter 736: Marriage
In the hall of King's Landing, Ye Junwen also met these two messengers. Varys briefly introduced the two, first of all, a grandmother who looked very old, because of her age, her body has shrunk, and the whole person looks very short, but it doesn't seem to be an easy character to deal with from the eyes.
From Varys's side, he knew that the other party's name was Olena. Redwin, the mother of the current Duke of Riverlands, is known as the Queen of Thorns.
The other person was a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties, tall and sturdy, and at first glance he was a guy with strong combat effectiveness, with some cold attitude in his eyes. According to Varys, this man was the younger brother of Prince Dorne and was named Oberon. Martell, known as the Red Viper, is said to be a master of poison and is also very ruthless.
Of course, when Ye Junwen was observing the two, the two were also observing Ye Junwen's situation, and the two were naturally very curious about this sudden appearance of Targaryens. Obviously, Ye Junwen's image is a little different from what the two imagined, after all, Ye Junwen is black-haired and black-eyed, while the traditional Targaryen is silver-haired and purple-eyed, looking at this situation, I don't want to be the orthodox heir of the Targaryens.
But both of them had already seen dragons. Yes, didn't Ye Junwen forget which world he left Xthromino in before, in fact, Xthromino is now in the Ice and Fire World, and he is still living in the Dragon's Lair in King's Landing. He didn't mind being there, he had spent thousands of years alone, and he didn't care much about the passage of time.
Olena and Oberon have both seen Xeromino, and when they saw the huge white dragon, they were also amazed, and the living dragon made the two of them fearful, and the two did not want to be enemies with Ye Junwen.
After a little introduction, both sides were seated, this time it was not a meeting in front of the emperor, it was only a private meeting, so Ye Junwen was only Varys by his side, and the two of them also directly called out the attendants, and there were only four of them left in the room.
"Tell me what you're trying to do." Ye Junwen opened his mouth and said, "Since you have already recognized my identity before, you shouldn't have come to declare war with me now." ”
"Yes, Your Majesty." The Oberon Red Viper here spoke first, "On behalf of Dorne, of course I support Your Majesty, Your Majesty has Targaryen blood and is the rightful heir to the Iron Throne. ”
"Do you have any conditions?" The person who questioned him was Varys next to him, and of course he didn't think Dorn would surrender directly.
"How dare we negotiate terms with Your Majesty." Oberon here said with a smile, "But we had some agreements with the Targaryens before, and we wanted Your Majesty to fulfill this agreement. ”
"Huh?" Varys was slightly stunned, but Oberon here handed over a piece of paper.
Varys took it and looked at it, his face changed slightly, Ye Junwen looked at him, and Varys explained in a whisper.
It turns out that the agreement was signed fifteen years ago, when the Targaryen dynasty had been overthrown, but Queen Layla had escaped King's Landing and sought refuge on Dragonstone. During this period, in order to fight back against the rebels of House Baratheon, Queen Layla gathered the armies of various countries, including the army of Dorne.
In order for Dorne to send troops, Queen Layla and the Prince of Dorne agreed that the two sides would marry. The object of the marriage was the prince of the time, Viserys. Targaryen, and the daughter of Prince Dorne, Alian. Martell, and then Dorne agreed to send troops, and that's what the deal was about.
"Your Majesty, at that time, Dorne was already preparing to send troops to King Qin, but what I didn't expect was that the world was unpredictable, just when we were preparing the troops, Queen Layla actually died in childbirth at this time, and as a result, the matter of sending troops was over." "But we in Dorne have been very loyal to House Targaryen, and we've been searching for Prince Viserys and his sister since then, but we've heard sad news lately. ”
"What's the news?" Ye Junwen asked.
"Didn't Your Majesty hear?" Oberon was slightly stunned, "Prince Viserys has unfortunately passed away. ”
Varys whispered in Ye Junwen's ear at this time: "Your Majesty, Prince Viserys had some accident in the Essos Continent to the west and did pass away, I remember reporting this matter to you before." ”
Maybe he said it, but Ye Junwen had completely forgotten about it, and after thinking about it, he said to Oberon: "Since Viserys is dead, what is the use of this agreement?" ”
"Your Majesty, Prince Viserys has passed away, but our marriage with House Targaryen cannot be nullified." Oberon immediately said, "Now that the marriage partner has died, I ask Your Majesty to appoint another marriage on behalf of the Targaryens." ”
What Oberon said is reasonable, the two sides have agreed on a marriage, and it is natural to carry it out, although Viserys is dead, but it is not said that this marriage is invalid, according to the general situation, the Targaryen family must get another person out. Of course, there are not many people in the Targaryen family now, and Oberun's meaning is of course very simple, just you Ye Junwen will come in person.
"So you mean to let me marry this Arlene. Martell? Ye Junwen understood and asked.
"Your Majesty, the two of you are about the same age, I don't think there's a problem." Oberon said.
"Your Majesty, the old woman has something to say." Ye Junwen hasn't said anything yet, and Olena, the Queen of Thorns next to her, can't bear it anymore.
"Say it." Ye Junwen looked at Olena and said, he probably remembered that Varys had said before that the two of them seemed to have similar goals, and it seemed that they were also preparing to marry him. After all, now that he has ascended the throne, the position of the queen is still vacant, and it is estimated that everyone wants to be on it.
"Your Majesty, the traitors in the Western Realm have been repulsed, and the only thing Your Majesty is still worried about is the rebels of Lanli. We currently have 80,000 troops in the riverbend, and we are willing to help Your Majesty solve this trouble. "The Queen of Thorns is also not nonsense, and she will directly say the target when she comes up, "Riverlands is willing to submit to the Iron Throne, but I hope that Your Majesty can marry my granddaughter." ”
"Your granddaughter?" Before Ye Junwen could speak, Oberon next to him burst out laughing. The relationship between Dorne and Riverlands is not very good, it can be said that it is a feud, and now that the goals of the two sides overlap a little, Oberon's attitude will naturally not be too good, "Your granddaughter will not refer to Margaery. Tyrell, if I'm not mistaken, isn't he the wife of the traitor Lanley? ”
"Your Majesty, although we have a marriage with Lan Li, since we know that the other party has rebelled, we have drawn a clear line with them." Olena immediately said, "Please rest assured that Margaery and Lan Li are absolutely not round, and everyone should know the reason for this." ”
"Huh?" Ye Junwen was slightly stunned. It was also strange why everyone knew the reason, and Varys next to him whispered a few words in Ye Junwen's ear.
Ye Junwen's face also changed after listening to it, it turns out that this Lan Li is a homosexual, and he is also famous in the Seven Kingdoms, and according to Varys, Lan Li seems to be the same as another person in the Tyrell family called Garros. Tyrells have romances, and of course this Garros is a male. As for marrying Margaery, it is estimated that it is just to hide people's eyes.
Ye Junwen, who is not round or round, doesn't care very much, it was originally a political marriage, and he didn't plan to have anything to do with this Margaery. Ye Junwen is too lazy to spend time in this area at the moment, he was originally ready to quickly solve the problem here, and then continue to work on other things.
After thinking about it, Ye Junwen said to Olena: "I agree to your conditions, I can marry Margaery." ”
Oberon next to him immediately wanted to speak, but Ye Junwen stretched out his hand to stop the other party and said, "As for Dorne's side, I listened to your request and just let our Targaryen family have a personal marriage, and we can also honor this." ”
"So what does Your Majesty mean?" Oberon asked, "Isn't it going to be for Princess Daenerys to marry us, as far as I know, Princess Daenerys is already married......"
"Your Majesty Oberon, Princess Daenerys is indeed married before, but her husband is dead...... Varys next to him immediately explained, of course he also thinks that Ye Junwen means this. Daenerys's previous husband King Ma is dead, but the news is estimated to be unknown to Dorne, so he immediately explained.
"But......" Oberon wanted to say something, but Ye Junwen stopped him again.
"Don't worry, I know you're worried, but I'm not talking about Daenerys, it's the man of our Targaryen family." Ye Junwen said.
"Huh?" Oberon was slightly stunned, the male of the Targaryen family? Who else is there besides Ye Junwen.
"Don't I have a younger brother?" Ye Junwen said with a smile, "Come, let him come." ”
"What?" Oberon was stunned for a moment, he really didn't know this.
"Could it be ......" Varys next to him remembered and immediately said, "Jon?" ”
"yes, isn't he my brother?" Ye Junwen said, "Royals, right. ”
"But Jon is a Night's Watch...... said Varys, who can't get married.
"The country needs him, can't I issue a pardon or something?" Ye Junwen asked.
"This ...... It's possible......" Varys nodded, and indeed there was a precedent for this, and the king could have been exempted from the Night's Watch if he had ordered it.
"I've summoned him before, he should be on his way to King's Landing, right?" Ye Junwen said, "Send another letter to the night watchman." ”
