Chapter 0816: Dock Trial

Daenerys stood at the bow of the ship, staring coldly at the towering walls, the docks, and the dense crowd of ships of all sizes in the harbor.

On the towering city wall, banners are hunting, and city garrisons are lined up on the city wall. Looking through the lookout of the battlements, you can see the soldiers' golden cloaks and shining armor. Standing on the bow of the ship and looking up, I saw a dense and neat row of helmets peeking out above the battlements, extending to the left and right along the direction of the city wall.

Countless porters, servants, fishermen, freemen, sailors, mercenaries from all over the world, legions of neat garrisons to keep order...... These people crowded hundreds of docks.

And on the riverbank far from the wharf, far and near, densely packed, all of them were people.

King's Landing is a large city with a population of hundreds of thousands in peacetime and a million in wartime.

The people of the city poured out to see Daenerys Targaryen, known as the Mother of Dragons, as a prisoner of war. The civilians, nobles, soldiers, and generals in the city still remember the scene when Daenerys rode the dragon in the sky above King's Landing and shouted for them to surrender and submit, when Daenerys rode a black dragon and carried a white dragon and a bronze dragon to show off her power in the sky above King's Landing.

But wonder and luck have always been on King's Landing's side.

When the Civil War began, a large number of refugees poured into King's Landing to escape the fighting, which caused overcrowding and food shortages in King's Landing, and when they were on the verge of death due to starvation, it was the Magic Mountain that brought bread and wheat from Harrenhal to help the refugees and civilians of King's Landing through the most difficult times, and also defused another riot of civilians and refugees in King's Landing.

Not long ago, when the people of the whole city were afraid of being destroyed by Long Yan, it was still the Magic Mountain, and the sudden return of the dragon gave everyone confidence and boosted the morale of the navy, so that the navy easily defeated Daenerys's naval fleet, repelled the powerful exotic navy, forced Daenerys to sit down for peace talks and had to accept the conditions proposed by Lord Magic Mountain.

But the contemptible Mother of the Dragon killed the power of the guests at the banquet of the peace talks, and killed the peace talks. But in the end, the wicked who trampled on the power of the guests reaped the consequences of their own evil and became a prisoner of war of Lord Magic Mountain.

There are hundreds of thousands of people in King's Landing, and these people are well aware of the suffering and dangers of King's Landing, they share the same hatred, and they have the strongest contempt and hostility from the bottom of their hearts for wicked people like Daenerys who dare to violate the rights of their guests.

In the port of the Blackwater River, ships of all sizes have moved out of the dock of docks, and they have retreated far away under the command of the Royal Navy, forming a closed-loop fleet on the Blackwater River, and the bow of the ship is also crowded with onlookers watching the Mother of Dragons.

There are not many officers and men on Daenerys's Queen, and there are dozens of warships under her banner, surrounded by the Royal Navy fleet, the Clegon fleet, the Iron Islands fleet, and the Redwin fleet, and they are not fast or slow towards the port.

The people and soldiers of King's Landing saw that the enemy prisoners of war were all empty-handed, without weapons, without armor, without sword belts, without helmets, and all dressed in plain clothes.

They were disarmed by order of Wagner Garr!

Each and every one of them is a captive who has lost his freedom and dignity.

Seeing Daenerys' ship sail into the harbor, cheers erupted on the riverbank, on hundreds of docks, and on countless ships large and small.

Vicious cursing rang out, and people threw stones and rubble in Daenerys' direction, although far away and impossible to hurt the Mother of Dragons, but it was the people's way of expressing their anger.

In the center of the dock, named after Robert, stands a very striking giant: the Magic Mountain!

Dressed in glittering armor and carrying an ice greatsword, the mountain was flanked by two resolute and burly white-robed knights, Osmond and Baron Sven, the captain of the Guard.

The two Iron Guards represent the royal power.

King Gendry Baratheon did not appear on the docks.

For prisoners of war, the Prime Minister came to greet them in person, which was already enough for Daenerys to save face.

The Mountain was followed by dozens of generals and dozens of courtiers, including Lady Melisandre and Arya Stark.

Behind the generals and courtiers was a neat cavalry of a thousand men. The team is led by Sweetmouth Ralph Clegane, executioner Dunson Clegane, and artist Polivier Clegane.

Although the people of King's Landing almost poured out of their nests to watch and scold Daenerys, the riverside avenue was empty and left a wide passageway. The riverside gate was also wide open, and although the riverside square inside the gate was also crowded with people, the passage in the middle was still unblocked, and no one entered.

The stretch from Robert Dock to the riverfront square was overcrowded, but the middle of the road was empty and unobstructed.

*

Daenerys and her soldiers noticed the hostility and anger they had.

Daenerys learns that the people of King's Landing have laid the blame on her for violating the rights of her guests.

Her face was grim, and her lips were tightly pursed, like a blade.

The escort ships on both sides of the Queen's flagship were Wagner Gall and Count Gubler of the Iron Islands as captains, and the two battleships escorted the Queen to the Royal Navy Harbor and docked at Robert Pier.

Daenerys disembarks and steps onto the docks, escorted by Missandei, Jon, Jorah, Barristan, Greyworm, Hero, LaCarlo, Dario, and others.

"Your Majesty, welcome to King's Landing. Magic Mountain said lightly.

Daenerys wasn't sure that Magic Mountain was making a sarcasm at her.

"Prime Minister, are you going to put us in an underground black cell, or are you going to welcome us as guests in King's Landing?"

"Look at these people. Magic Mountain said. He raised his hand and signaled to the people on three sides who were surrounded by water, as if it was a predetermined signal, and tens of thousands of people scattered all over the riverbank erupted in earth-shattering shouts and cheers.

The shouts of Long Live the Magic Mountain overpowered the roar of the waves of the Blackwater River.

"Prime Minister, you let your people escort us here in the hope that I will see the people's hatred of me and appreciate the people's love for you?"

"Daenerys, do you think you have any chance of reclaiming the Iron Throne?" the Magic Mountain called Daenerys by name, in an indifferent tone, but as arrogant as a mountain.

Daenerys's face became even more grim, her gaze was as cold as ice, and there was a resentful unwillingness.

"The people of King's Landing will no longer have Targaryen as their king. They hate the Targaryens, and it may not be fair to you that Bran Stark has been charged for the abuse of guest power, but they have suffered an even greater injustice to the dozens of our generals and courtiers who have been killed, and to my fallen admirals. ”

Daenerys kept her mouth shut, her face frighteningly pale.

"Whatever other plots Bran Stark has against me behind my back, I want you to come here to make you see the fact that you and Bran, no matter what you do, no matter what plans we don't know, will never be able to win the hearts of the people of King's Landing. The people, nobles, and soldiers of Westeros will not welcome you, let alone come to claim the Iron Throne. You don't have any chances. ”

Magic Mountain watched as Daenerys' pale face turned a sickly red.

Daenerys is tormented inside, and she needs to face this fact.

The Magic Mountain turned around and raised his hands high: "People of King's Landing, rejoice and cheer our victory." ”

Rumble!

More than 10,000 soldiers and tens of thousands of people, up and down the city wall, on both sides of the riverbank, the soldiers and people broke out into deafening cheers!

Long live King's Landing and long live the Magic Mountain's shouts are earth-shattering.

Daenerys, Jon, Missandei, Jorah, Barristan, Lacarlo, Greyworm, Hero, ...... The queen and her generals did not change their color.

The hearts of the soldiers and people of the Magic Mountain are united. They all see Daenerys as an enemy.

The Magic Mountain's raised hands pressed down, and to Daenerys' disbelief, it was like a trained legion, the shouts of tens of thousands of soldiers and people subsided, and the sounds of wind and water, and the sounds of insects and birds in nature returned to Daenerys's ears.

It is not surprising that the soldiers shut down together, because they were trained. But tens of thousands of civilians were also able to silence together, and the prestige of the Magic Mountain was so high that it was unbelievable.

"Ser Barristan Selmy, you were once the captain of the Kingsguard, and do you want to see the people of this city fall into the flames of dragon and war again? Magic Mountain looked at Barristan and asked in a deep voice.

Barristan Selmy opened his mouth, speechless. When Cersei was dismissed as captain of the Kingsguard, and when he was banished from King's Landing by Joffrey, Barristan believed that he had done something wrong, and after witnessing Cersei tear apart the will of the former King Robert, and after witnessing Cersei and Littlefinger join forces to slaughter all of Eddard Stark's guards, he still chose to be loyal to Cersei and Joffrey.

Barristan Selmy was an upright and loyal knight with great glory and majesty in the hearts of the people of King's Landing. He refuses to leave the land, he is forced to leave by Cersei and Joffrey, and then goes to Daenerys and swears allegiance to her.

"Commander Jon Targaryen, do you support Daenerys to lead an army to attack this city again, and fight against the soldiers and people here, just to kill thousands of lives just for her own Iron Throne?"

Jon Targaryen has always opposed Daenerys' attack on Westeros, and he went to Dragonstone to persuade Daenerys to withdraw from the army as a fellow Targaryen family.

"Prime Minister, I am against war between the two sides. I don't support Daenerys attacking Westeros, nor do I support you attacking Essos. ”

"Very well, then do you object to me bringing snow salt, cloth, grain, silk, fruit wine, new paper, banks, and schools to the North?"

"Prime Minister, I have no reason to refuse. ”

"So, the people of Slave Bay on the continent of Essos, can I bring them textile technology, animal husbandry technology, agricultural technology, fruit wine technology, bank technology, and school establishment?"

"I don't think anyone would say no. ”

"Someone will say no, Jon. ”

"Who would say no?"

"The Butcher King, the Butcher King who is going crazy about slavery. I brought with me salt and wine, cattle and cultivation techniques that would benefit my people in Slave Bay, and I needed to conquer the Butcher King first. ”

"How could the Prime Minister know that slavery was still practised in Slave Bay?"

"All of what I said is true, Jon. I killed the Night King, and you are the last person to question the veracity of my words. I'm not going to lie about this, you don't believe in my glory?" said Demon Mountain coldly.

Jon looked at the ground, "I'm sorry, Prime Minister. He looked up apologetically at the Magic Mountain, then at Daenerys, and he shut his mouth.

"Kill her!" a voice said from behind the Magic Mountain, "Kill Daenerys, Prime Minister, she won't help us conquer Essos." ”

The one who spoke was Arrene Martell.

Magic Mountain glanced back, and Alene Martell's heart jumped, and she obediently closed her mouth.

"Daenerys, will you tell me where Bran Stark has gone?"

"Magic Mountain, are you going to judge me on the docks?" Daenerys' voice was filled with coldness. She considered herself to have been greatly humiliated.

The mountain looked at Jon, "Jon, can you tell me anything about Bran, anything you know, tell me." ”

"I'm sorry, Prime Minister, but I don't know what's next for Bran. ”

"Alright, Jon, I'll give Rego back to you, but you'll have to return to the North. ”

"Prime Minister, what will you do to Daenerys?"

"I'll take her with me until she tells me everything about Bran. She knows what Bran will do next, and I'm pretty sure of that. ”

"And then?"

"If she refuses to speak, I will kill her. ”

"We have surrendered, Magic Mountain. Jorah Mormont snapped, "You're looking for Bran, it's the Minister of Intelligence, we're not your Minister of Intelligence." ”

The Demon Mountain suddenly stepped forward and stretched out his hand to pick up Jorah Mormont: "Jorah, you are a native of Bear Island, a knight of the Westeros continent, what kind of face do you have to bring exotic warriors to attack and kill your own people?"

"Sheriff!" exclaimed Demon Mountain.

Sir Arlin of Dorn, dowry from among the courtiers: "Your Excellency, Prime Minister. ”

"Send for Jorah and cut out his tongue. ”

"Yes, Prime Minister. ”

Yarlin raised his hand, and immediately a group of golden-robed soldiers ran out of the queue, and everyone ran to the Blackwater River. In the water, Jorah Mormont was swimming back to the shore.

"Magic Mountain, have you convicted Jorah?" Daenerys grimaced.

"Daenerys, I can't accept that you will never tell Bran where he is and what he is planning. You still regard me as an enemy, and you have not surrendered. Then this is the dock trial, your generals, soldiers, I will put them all to death. Prince Arleneβ€”"

Arlene stepped forward.

"Go to the top of Rhaenys Mountain and ride the dragon down. ”

"Yes, Prime Minister. ”

"I order you to burn all of Daenerys' ships to ashes, as well as all the soldiers on board. ”

"Yes, Prime Minister. ”
