Chapter 0981 The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop
"Dragons are the supreme magical creatures and the reason why magic thrives and falls. More than a hundred years ago, when all dragons disappeared, magic also lost its powerful power, and now the magic power is also because of the reappearance of dragons. Will said.
"Exactly. Quish said.
"So, Quix, Melisandre is my military priest, involved in military strategy and operational planning, as well as in government affairs, would you like to join us in contributing to the catastrophe of this world?"
"I'd love to, and if I could get close to the dragon, I'd be even more happy. Quish said.
"As long as I'm in Quells, or whatever is convenient for me, you can get close to the dragon. Daenerys said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. "So, what does Her Majesty want me to do for you?"
In Qui's eyes, Daenerys is heavier than Will, because Daenerys is the one who does not burn, the Mother of Dragons.
Will saw that Quiz was bent on getting close to Daenerys, so he kept silent.
Daenerys said, "We're going to Westeros soon, and Quells needs someone who has the power to manage it. Clear, can you come to dinner together? ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Quixie put on his lacquered mask again, went to the table, and sat down.

Ten days later, the members of Quells' Round Table were decided: Lord Zaro representing the power of the Thirteen Giants, Sitney Norman representing the power of the past royal family, Quishi representing the power of the Eastern Asha, Varys representing the power of the new Queen, and Doyle representing the power of the Blue-Lipped Wizard.
On the fifteenth day, Will and Jaime and Arya rode back to Westeros on a griffin, and Aquaman and Daenerys, Myin the Faceling, the Green Saint and the two maids, as well as Largo Giorgo and Lacarlo, with 6,000 troops and three adult dragons, set out by boat to sweep through the large and small city-states near Quells, whether they were city-states on land or islands in the sea.
Before Will announced the Roundtable's body, Daenerys and Will discussed marrying two of the Green Saint's maids to Lord Zaro in order to monitor and control his agents. Now that Quells has a Round Table branch, it solves all the problems at once.
Daenerys swept away all the city-states near Quells, with 6,000 men and 200 warships, and marched towards Slaver Bay.
Twenty days later, hundreds of warships from Slave Bay greeted the triumphant return of the queen and her hundreds of warships, as well as an army of more than 10,000 soldiers, in the port of Astapor.
In two months, Daenerys did not use any army in Slave Bay, with three dragons, conquered the East Quells and dozens of nearby large and small city-states, with countless wealth and tens of thousands of warriors, the news spread in Slave Bay, and the prestige of the Mother of Dragons reached an all-time peak.
The Harpy Son, who had been having secret underground branches in Meereen, Yuankai, and Astapor, also came out of the darkness and swore allegiance to Daenerys. Since then, the organization of the Harpy Sons entrenched in Slave Bay has ceased to exist.
Daenerys gathered an army in Slave Bay, including an army of more than 30,000 Slavic cavalry, with more than 50,000 troops and 500 warships, and the queen ordered all warships to sail down the sea together, aiming at the East Sea on the continent of Westeros.
This army of nearly 1,000 warships, totaling more than 70,000 people, was handed over to the Sea King to lead all the way to the west.
Daenerys led her three-headed dragon, along with Main the Faceless, the Green Saint, Argo, Jogo, and Laclos, and led two thousand-strong cavalry towards the Sea of Dothrak, north of Meereen.
Two hundred miles north of Meereen, there were nearly 200,000 Dothraki cavalry, and nearly ten former Kao were waiting here for news of the Mother of Dragons.
Daenerys returned to the Dothraki steppe, to her own tent of the Chinese army, and she brought with her countless treasures and riches, and ordered the army to set up camp and return to the holy city of Vis Dothrak.
After learning that Her Majesty had conquered the city of Quells in the east, Daenerys became an invincible queen in the hearts of the Dothraki people, and from then on she was forbidden and respected.
A month later, Daenerys led her army back to the Holy City of Vis dothrak, and under the auspices of Main the Faceless and her, a round table was set up in the Holy City of Vis Dothraki: the Green Virgin representing the power of Slave Bay, a Doshikarin representing the power of Vis Sanctuary, Argo representing the power of the Dothraki people, Jorah Mormont representing the power of the Queen, and the priestess Venze Alyssa representing the power of the Prairie Wizards.
Ten days later, Daenerys set out with 100,000 cavalry and landed in the westernmost city of Pantos on the continent. She divided Vis Dothraki into seven regions, and assigned seven generals to charge the copper and management of each area. The Dothraki have since established their own unified system of government in the holy city of Vis Dothraki, with Queen Daenerys Targaryen as the supreme leader and Largo, Chogo, and LaCarlo as acting administrators.

Will, Jaime and Arya, who flew back to Westeros on a griffin from the sky, arrived in Dorne half a month later, and the prefects of Dorne were Dorne Martell and Joysa Brammon.
Will returned to Dorne, as if he had only left Dorne for a day, and returned to Halberd City, where all the scenery and buildings remained the same, and Will was very glad that Prince Daolang did not have any jade to burn, and refused to set fire to Halberd City to resist to the end.
In Halberd, Will and Jaime and Arya set up a small round table: Prince Doro, who represents the aristocratic power of Dorne's past, Jonessa Brammon who represents Will's power, Mans Red, the wildling king who represents the power of the Free People of the North, Shanna, who represents the unicorn power of the Skaggs Island, and Bachelor Wyatt, who represents the power of the Oldtown School.
Ten days later, Mance Rader and Shanna, the commander of the East Sea Lookout, Asha Greyjoy, led more than 50,000 soldiers back to the East Sea Lookout.
40,000 soldiers came from the Great Wall, and 10,000 soldiers from Dorne. After the Great War, Dorne's combat power was reduced a lot, Mance Rader and Shanna, Asha took away another 10,000 combat power, and Dorne was unable to organize troops to resist even if he had other ideas among the nobles.
Without troops, Dorne could no longer stir up trouble and let the people recuperate.
Will returns to King's Landing Red Keep along with Jaime and Arya.
*
The Throne Hall, the Room of the Ministers.
There were six Kingsguards standing at the gate, and as soon as he passed, the Kingsguard opened the door.
Will went in, and Jaime and Arya waited outside.
In the meeting room of the important ministers, sat Her Majesty Shireen Baratheon, the commander of the King's Landing garrison, Bran Stark, the captain of the Kingsguard Barristan Selmy, the Minister of Justice, Allister Floren, the Minister of the Sea, the Earl of Onion, Davos Seaworth, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Petyr Berish.
The king was still young, and he was a good girl. Will didn't have anything to worry about Shireen.
Bran Stark, the youngest garrison commander in King's Landing's history and Arya's younger brother, Will is also reassuring of Bran.
Barristan, the Iron Guard of the Guards, is very famous and upright, and as long as he is not taken advantage of, he is the best captain.
The Minister of Justice, Allister Florent, the Queen's grandfather, is an unprincipled man who sees the wind and rudder, but has defected to Will, is Will's pawn, and with the surveillance of Petyr Berish with Littlefinger, Will is also very reassuring of him.
There is no doubt that the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Littlefinger Petyr, is one of his own.
Davos Seaworth, Earl of Onion, was upright, principled, and unmachievous, and Will admired Davos very much.
Then all that was left was the strange Minister of Intelligence, Count Bukele, and the Minister of War and Aircraft, Randolph Tully, and the Duke Mace Tyrell who stared at Will.
The biggest impact of Dorne's political reform is the Tyrells, the Tyrells' territory is separated from Dorne by a Crimson Mountains, and he and the nobles feel threatened by Will, followed by the nobles of the Stormlands, who dare not speak out against Will, and several nobles in the Stormlands were executed by Will, and the lessons are unforgettable.
Mace Tyrell hadn't suffered yet, and although his army had been reduced in the battle with the Warriors, he was still the most powerful. The river bay has a large population and a large base for conscription, so as long as the order is severe, it is feasible to recruit more than 100,000 troops.
At the Great Wall, Tyrrell's army did not enter, and his strength was well preserved. Food, wealth, troops, he is currently the most powerful of the nobility.
In Dorne, he also left 10,000 troops behind to see how Dorne had changed. After Will withdrew his troops not long ago, he realized that Will's status in the hearts of the Dorne people was too high, so he did not touch Dorne's territory for the time being.
With Dorne currently suffering heavy losses and Mance Rader taking the last 10,000 of Dorne's troops, now is the best time to swallow Dorne in the Riverlands.
However, Will was cunning, and the Tyrells had conspired to find it not appropriate to take Dorne now, at least, they had to gain the king's support first.
This was Will's first meeting of ministers since his return to the Red Keep. He looked at the ministers and made up his mind that if Duke Tyrell had the idea of doing anything to Dorne, he wouldn't have to be polite.
Her Majesty Queen Shireen first questioned Lord Will's greetings, and then the courtiers, but it could be seen that everyone's welcome was not high.
Will put the Hand of the King on the placket of his coat and said with a smile: "I haven't worn the Prime Minister's badge for a long time, and I feel a little rusty." ”
"Prime Minister, I don't understand your military operations in Dorne. Duke Tyrell said lightly.
Will carefully put on the badge, and then slowly looked at Duke Tyrell: "Lord Duke, what are you sitting here for?" He looked at Her Majesty the Queen, "Your Majesty, this is the Council of Ministers, why is Lord Mace here?"
"I'm already one of the most important members of the Imperial Council. Mace Tyrell said coldly, "Prime Minister, when you were in Dorne, the king made a new appointment to the royal courtiers, and although you are the regent, the king has grown up. ”
"Even though the king has grown up, I am still the regent, and I have no right to inquire about the appointment and dismissal of the Imperial Council after His Majesty needs to remove me from the position of regent, so why is Lord Mace sitting here? ”
Shireen was slightly cramped: "Prime Minister, Lord Mace's position here is state adviser. ”
"I didn't know about the appointments and dismissals. ”
"Your Excellency, you are conquering Dorne, and there are some things that I don't think you should worry about anymore, so I ordered it myself. ”
"Oh, okay then. Your Majesty, I ask you to revoke my position as regent now, and I will only be Prime Minister. ”
"Prime Minister, it was not my idea to ask Mace Tyrell to be my State Advisor. Shireen said.
Will looked at the Minister of Justice, this was his man, but still not?
"Lord Allister, the state has suddenly set up a state adviser, and you all agree?" Will asked.
"Prime Minister, you are in Dorne first, and then you will go to the Great Wall, the Red Fort cannot be without a Prime Minister for a long time, after all of us have met and felt the need to set up a state adviser, and then everyone voted, and Her Majesty the Queen was also present to oversee it, and the position was unanimously approved. Allister said.
His hands and palms were covered with sweat.
"Oh, I see. Will said, "Yes, Lord Allister, I will understand if you explain it this way. I'm going to be away for a long time, and there's more to do with the Great Wall of Desperation, and I won't necessarily be able to come back once the strange ghosts strike. But even so, we have Her Majesty the Queen, the Commander of the Garrison, the Captain of the Royal Guard, the Minister of Justice, the Minister of Maritime Affairs, the Minister of Intelligence, and the Minister of Finance.
There was a sudden silence in the meeting of the important ministers.
"To be honest, I don't agree with the establishment of another state advisor in the Imperial Council to balance the balance of power among the major families, which makes me feel disgusted. Will looked at Davos Seaworth, Earl of Onion, "Lord Davos, you disappointed me?"
"Lord Will, your affairs in Dorne have spread to the Stormlands, and to my territory, Stormfury Point, and the nobles are not happy with your changes, and I don't know what is right or wrong. Davos said.
"You are your lord in Stormfury Point, how can Dorne's affairs affect your Stormrage Horn?" Will said lightly, "The free trade city-states on the other side of the Narrow Sea have no kings, no royal courtiers, some cities practice slavery, some cities abolish slavery, everyone has their own set of different government management methods, why can't you tolerate Dorne's changes?"
Davos was speechless.
"Dorne has never really belonged to our dynasty, they are all nominal allegiance to de facto independence, even the taxes are completely different from the other six countries, the royal family has no right to set taxes on Dorne, Dorne can pay as many taxes as he wants, but you can all accept such Dorne?
"Now that Dorne is truly under the management of our dynasty, the power of taxation and personnel appointments and dismissals is all vested in our royal family, which is called concentration of power, what do you have to oppose?" Will said lightly, "The official position of state adviser, I want to exercise the veto power before leaving the regent!"
