Chapter 0826: The Secret of Aegon's Background: Will's Gambling Knife's Subplan
"Everyone dies, and you are willing to trade your life for Aegon?" Will asked Illyrio.
"Yes, sir. ”
The Faceless Ones do have this rule, and for one to be spared, another must die in order to maintain a 'balance' in their faith.
Aegon smiled, "No, Lord Illyrio, I don't want to be imprisoned in the basement of the Red Temple. ”
Ignoring the madness in Aegon's eyes, Illyrio walked over and whispered, "Your Majesty, as long as you live, you have a chance." Then he said to Will, "Everyone dies, Princess Daenerys, and if you insist on killing Aegon VI Targaryen, I will die for him." ”
Will keel sword slowly returned to its sheath: "Princess Daenerys, Lord Illyrio, I can't do it, you can change someone." ”
"Princess Daenerys, please spare Mistress Illyrio. ”
Many of the Pantos officials began to intercede for Illyrio.
Varys also said, "Princess, Illyrio has a great merit to the Targaryens, please ask the princess to pardon Lord Illyrio's death penalty." ”
If Daenerys insisted on killing Illyrio or Aegon VI Targaryen, she would have been shown to be unkind.
What's more, what Illyrio wants to save is the people of the Targaryen family, the only blood and blood of Daenerys's big brother.
"Someone, put Illyrio and Aegon VI Targaryen in custody. Daenerys ordered.
The dwarf and the bald man struck, and the dwarf shot down the long sword in Aegon's hand, and the two men controlled Aegon and Illyrio, and more red-armored soldiers rushed up and tied them up.
"Pantos needs to elect a new governor. Daenerys said lightly, "The officials of Pantos, who unfortunately gave their lives today, also need to fill the vacancies, who is the highest affairs officer in Pantos City?"
Immediately, an obese nobleman stepped forward, wearing gold and silver ornaments on his hands and neck.
The officials of Pantos were all nobles, all of them were very wealthy, and they loved to show off.
"Inform all the nobles in the city to come to the town hall for a meeting, arrange for someone to go down, and clean the town hall. ”
"Yes, princess!"
"Who is the commander of the city garrison?"
"It's me, princess. ”
"Arrange for all the garrisons to return to the barracks and wait for the reorganization. ”
"Yes, Princess. ”
"Lord Varys, please help the generals arrange for the Red Armor to guard the city gates and maintain order in the city. ”
"Yes, princess!"

The sound of human footsteps came in the darkness, soft, but audible clearly. The sound of footsteps echoed in the darkness.
In addition to suffering when he was a child, Illyrio later became rich and prosperous all his life, ran the law well, enjoyed wealth, power and beautiful food, and never went to a black prison.
After only half a day, he couldn't stand it.
In the darkness of substance, there seemed to be a lot of souls he had killed whispering.
Over the decades, Illyrio had killed not many people, and not many people, all of them were great nobles.
The ground was damp and cold, and there were small and invisible crawlies and small flying insects. The air was also filled with a foul smell, which made Illyrio nauseous.
In such a situation, Illyrio felt that he could not last a day.
Cultivated to have exquisite snacks on hand at all times, he soon felt hungry.
When he was used to reaching to his side, the tentacles were cold and damp.
No refreshments, just darkness.
The sound of footsteps was accompanied by small lights like beans.
There was only one person coming.
Illyrio stood up against the wall, his hand propped up against the wall, and a small black reptile struggled in his palm, Illyrio was startled and hurriedly shook his hand.
Some of the little reptiles were obviously interested in his fat body, and if it weren't for Illyrio's nausea and strict defense, his body would have been regarded as a new territory by the little reptiles. Despite this, he was bitten in many places on his body, and the itch was unbearable.
"Your Excellency!" a strange face unknown to Illyrio, holding a small candle in his hand.
Illyrio looked at the ordinary young jailer's face, and he didn't know what to say.
"Do you want to take a sip?" the jailer's other hand was raised, and it was a wine bag.
If you look at the precious style of this wine bag, you will know that it contains good wine.
Illyrio took the wine bag, "Soldier, which lord sent you?" ”
"Lord Will. The soldier said.
"Thank him for me. ”
"Yes, sir. ”
Illyrio unscrewed the wine bag and took a sip, grunting, and the wine entered his stomach.
Then he froze.
"What's the matter, sir?" the jailer asked with concern.
Illyrio's mouth was full of urine.
All of a sudden, he felt so disgusting.
After being pampered for decades, he spit out with a whoa.
The jailer had already dodged away and said with a smile: "My lord, does it taste good?"
"You?"
"I changed Lord Will's wine, and the buddies drank it, and then filled the good wine for the adults. The jailer laughed, speaking clearly and unhurriedly.
Syllable!
Illyrio struck the wine bag with all his might, and the jailer dodged it, and the wine bag hit the wall, and the echo echoed far away in the darkness before reverberating back.
The jailer shook his hand, and the candle went out.
It was as if the whole world had been plunged into boundless darkness at once.
Illyrio's heart jumped.
He felt like he was blind.
Footsteps sounded, and the jailer left farther and farther away.
How could he see his way in the dark?
Illyrio scolded, "Dog smash seeds, I'll go out." I am your governor. ”
Crash!
As if with a loud bang, a bucket of ice water suddenly fell from the sky, drenching Illyrio's head and face.
A voice laughed, "Greetings to you, Lord Illyrio, Lord Varys. ”
Illyrio froze on the spot, the ice water was too cold, like a knife, and the underground black cell was cold enough.
In the darkness, there was the sound of a bucket slamming on the ground, and then, the man who had been hiding in the darkness to bathe him also left, and the footsteps echoed in the darkness. Normal people, no one walks like this.
When Illyrio woke up from the 'excitement' of the icy water, he realized that it was not the sound of footsteps, but the applause of hands. The man clapped his hands as he walked: Bang!
*
Inside another cell.
Aegon was tied to the floor.
He wanted to harm himself.
Daenerys stood in front of Aegon with a torch in her hand, and she looked at Aegon condescendingly with pity in her eyes.
", I don't need your pity. ”
Daenerys didn't speak, still looking at Aegon VI Targaryen.
Daenerys is surrounded by three other people: Will, Varys, and Sir Duck.
Everyone's eyes made Aegon yearn for suicide.
After a long while, Will spoke, "Aegon, do you want to live?"
Aegon looked up and smiled.
He had no fear.
His wounds were already bandaged, Will avoided the vital position, and Aegon was not dead.

Chapter 0826-2 The Secret of Will Scheming Aegon's Background
"Are you sure?" Daenerys asked Varys.
Varys and Will 'conspired' together for a while.
Varys said, "Princess Daenerys, I know Illyrio. ”
Daenerys looked calm, but her heart was stormy: "So, Illyrio will not trade his life for Aegon VI Targaryen. ”
"Absolutely not. ”
"Aegon VI Targaryen is not the son of Rhaegar Targaryen. ”
"I don't know. Varys said.
"Back then, when you exchanged Prince Rhaeggar's child for a commoner's child, there was nothing ...... about this child Birthmarks?"
"No, princess. ”
Daenerys looked at Will.
Will said, "When Aegon was in the town hall without fear of my slaughter, I knew that Illyrio cared more about Aegon than he cared about his own. I deliberately used a knife, then a dagger, and then I pulled out a steel spike, and I did it only for a man, and that person was Illyrio. ”
"Putting a knife in Aegon's shoulder and a dagger in Aegon's leg were made for Illyrio?"
"Yes, to hurt Aegon, a knife is enough, why should I toss so much?" Will said lightly.
The room was quiet again.
"Illyrio has been an extremely selfish man all his life, and he has worked with me to help the Targaryens for himself and for no one else. If Aegon fails, he just needs to take refuge in us, in a word, change his attitude and change his words, he can turn the wind and rudder and continue to reap the maximum benefits. But he did not hesitate to exchange his life for his life. Varys whispered, "He still has so much money to spend, so many beautiful women to enjoy, so much power to fight for." He would not sacrifice his life for the sake of Targaryen's blood. He's not Jon Clinton. ”
Daenerys stood up, walked out, came to the yard, and showered her head with cold water.
In fact, she understood what Will and Varys said and did, and the three of them had discussed some details beforehand, but she didn't want to admit it. She wanted Brother Rhaega to have a bloodline in the world, even if he was a criminal. She asks Will to kill Aegon in the square, which is Will's layout.
Will whispered a few words in her ear before Daenerys asked Will to kill Aegon (see previous chapter). All of this is done against one person: Mopatis Illyrio.
But she didn't want this Aegon to be Rhaegar child, she longed to have the same bloodline, even if he was a heinous criminal, it was a thought.
A thought of Targaryen blood.
Bloodline!
She suddenly felt a dull pain in her abdomen!
The brat in the belly was kicking her.
Today's emotions are full of joys and sorrows, ups and downs, and they have a great impact on the fetus in Daenerys's womb.
The kid expressed his displeasure with his mother in his belly.
After a while, Daenerys returned to her room, where everything was calm and the baby in her womb had regained its calm.
"Lord Varys, you have deceived the Lannisters and Baratheon by exchanging the sons of commoners for the children of my eldest brother, Rhaeggar, and Illyrio has also replaced the dragon with dogs, killed my eldest brother's children, replaced them with his own sons, and plotted against the Iron Throne on the other side of the Narrow Sea. This is Illyrio's biggest investment, he has invested in his son, and the goal of his plan is the royal power, which is his greatest return, which is in line with the principle of his business: maximize profits. ”
Varys was silent.
Will was silent.
After a while, Varys said, "This is the only way to make sense." Illyrio risked breaking his relationship with me by secretly copying the secret of how to train dragons and hatch dragons, and he fully supported Jon Clinton in raising Aegon for sixteen years, and as soon as I was reminded that Lord Will must retrieve the dragon eggs at a high price, Illyrio showed the strongest interest, and I told him that if I could find the dragon eggs, I could hatch dragons. He quickly found the dragon egg through money and connections, and sent it to Aegon, but he hid it from Varys. ”
"I agree with Lord Varys's analysis. "However, Prince Xurega's son is not dead, and silver-golden-eyed and purple-eyed boys are not uncommon in the cities near Valyria. Illyrio can change the baby, but he doesn't have to kill the baby. Lord Varys, is Illyrio a decisive man?"
"He's resourceful, but he's not decisive. ”
Daenerys said, "Although Lord Will's words make sense, since Illyrio wants to do it, he will definitely kill the real Aegon to prevent future troubles." ”
Varys nodded in agreement with Daenerys.
"All the secrets are in Illyrio. Will said.
"But Aegon must be his son. "I know that Illyrio has many mistresses and many illegitimate children. When I secretly sent Aegon across the sea to his house, he did have a wife of Valyrian blood, but she was a prostitute that Illyrio had bought from a brothel, and she was pregnant and on the verge of giving birth. ”
"And then what about the kid?"
"Died young. ”
"What about the wife?"
"It didn't take long for him to die. ”
Will said, "If Illyrio had tried to trade dogs for dragons, he would have killed the child's mother." ”
For Illyrio, who was never short of women, killing a woman who bore him a son was no different from killing an outsider. He loved his son, but he didn't love the woman who bore him a son. He has no love, just desire. The woman is his machine for satisfying his desires and procreation.
"What good way can we get Illyrio to tell him his secret?" Daenerys said.
"I have a solution. Will said.
"What's the solution?"
"Lock Aegon and Illyrio together. ”
*
Illyrio couldn't hold on any longer, he felt like he was going to die.
He was unable to stand up, soaking wet, the fine silk sticking to his body like ice cubes against his skin.
He was so cold that he lost consciousness, and there were small reptiles crawling up his body, his face, and he no longer felt fear and nausea.
Illyrio was born as a mercenary, and when he was a teenager, he was also excellent in swordsmanship and in good health.
It's a pity that he enjoyed the glory and wealth for too long, and after enduring a little hardship, he quickly reached the limit of what he could bear.
Suddenly, torches lit up in the distance, and several people strode towards him.
"Help me, save me!" Illyrio shouted with all his strength, but he didn't make a sound, "Help me, I'm Illyrio, I'm your governor, save me!"
