(Chinese New Year's Eve, everyone eats and drinks well, plays mahjong and touches more)

Although Illyrio was threatened with death, he did not immediately answer the life-saving straw thrown by the Magic Mountain. If you change to someone else, you will definitely pick it up immediately, saying that you are willing to become an ally of the Magic Mountain.

But Illyrio is not an ordinary person, he didn't push the boat down the river, he didn't hit the snake and the stick, he stared at the magic mountain, still with a shocked expression, he didn't speak, he listened to the magic mountain continue.

The more he spoke, the more he revealed his true thoughts, and gave Illirio a glimpse into how many of their secrets the mountain had, and Illyrio knew that the less he spoke, the safer he became. Obviously, the Magic Mountain has a lot of information about them, and Illyrio can only say a lot of mistakes, and the best way to deal with it is to say as little or nothing as possible.

The Magic Mountain gave Illyrio two months, but when he was in King's Landing, he clearly said to Varys, let alone March, he would wait for three years.

Why does the magic mountain change so much before and after speaking?

Illyrio didn't know, he only knew one thing, the magic mountain was very shrewd, and it was by no means the savage and dull appearance he showed. He is neither stupid nor dull. He also thought that Varys would pay the Faceless of Braavos to kill him, but it wasn't possible. Because it was easy to kill the Magic Mountain, it was basically impossible for Illyrio to get out of the Magic Mountain's men alive.

As one of the top Assassins in the former Free Trade City-State, Illyrian Facelings and the Assassins knew much better than the Magic Mountain.

The Faceless One is only responsible for killing! They won't take on anything to save people, not any amount of money!

They only kill, not save.

If there was a Faceless One who killed the Mountain here, he would have left his employer Illyrio and left on his own, and even if someone stabbed Illyrio in the stomach with a knife, he would never have come to his rescue.

Even if the employer dies in front of them, they won't give it a second look.

The life and death of the employer has nothing to do with them!

If you want to save people, you can't hire the faceless one. Who can save him in the hands of the Magic Mountain? Illyrio has only one person in mind: Varys!

Varys will not sit still!

It's just that there is a very difficult thing in this, if Varys wants to save him with his heart, will the blood wizard know in advance and tell the magic mountain. Judging from their secrets told by the Magic Mountain so far, this blood wizard is very, very powerful, just like the former 'blood raven' Brindon River on the continent of Westeros.

Brinnden is able to possess countless birds and animals, borrowing their bodies and eyes to see the hidden secrets of others.

Seeing the opportunity he threw out, Illyrio turned a blind eye and did not immediately say anything, knowing that he had met a fierce enemy. Illyrio and Varys, both masters of mindfulness, have trained a lot of little mice and little birds, and they have a thorough understanding of what the human heart thinks.

It's true that the best allies that the Magic Mountain wants to make are not Illyrio and Varys, but there are some people who are useful, and you don't want to make friends in your heart, but you have to make them.

For the Magic Mountain, the most brilliant conspirators like Varys and Illyrio, the Mountain thinks the safest way to form an alliance is to kill them. For a man who knows all the future situations, a master of intrigue is no match for a warrior with a sharp sword.

"Lord Doge, would you like to be an ally with me?" Sure enough, Illyrio's judgment was not out of Illyrio's judgment, if the Demon Mountain had the heart to form an alliance with him, as long as he didn't speak, the Demon Mountain would definitely say it himself.

When two people are together, they want to talk about things, and one of them keeps his mouth shut, and the rest can only speak first. It's as simple as that. It's not easy to figure this out and do it.

"Do I still have a chance to be an ally of the Adults?" said Illyrio, unconfident. He doesn't think he has what it takes to be an ally of the Magic Mountain, and his words are humble and weak, but in fact, Illyrio is retreating. That's where Illyrio comes in. Illyrio's response was not simple, full of wisdom and rich insight, even his silence was a clever response, not a silence that could not be found to be said because of fear.

In order to ensure that he leaves alive, becoming an ally with the Magic Mountain is the best choice for Illyrio.

However, Illyrio has never taken the initiative, has not increased the weight, and has not tried to dominate. He behaved honestly and woodenly.

"I don't want Daenerys to have all of Princess Eliamatell's blood debt on my head, maybe I need someone to send me a letter to her, and it would be better if they could help me explain the stakes. ”

"My lord, you want to send a letter to Daenerys, maybe I can. Illyrio said. Illyrio was 100 percent able to do that, but he said 'maybe'.

"In the bloody case of the Targaryen royal nursery, I was just a soldier, just seventeen years old. "I can't do what I do if I don't carry out Duke Tywin's orders, and the result will be a fall on my head." ”

This statement was too informative for Illyrio to believe because the Mountain had shown 'disrespect' to Duke Tywin. He was shirking his responsibilities and pointing straight at Duke Tywin.

Is this necessary? Daenerys is still on the other side of the Narrow Sea, more than 10,000 miles away. Magic Mountain is so fierce and bullying, how could he say such a thing, it is too 'weak'.

Illyrio failed to understand why the Magic Mountain was so afraid of the future Daenerys, and was his prediction that Daenerys would have three dragons true?, in other words, the revival of House Targaryen should be on Daenerys, not anyone else.

Only if Daenerys is strong in the future will the magic mountain be afraid, and because of fear, it will be repaired.

What did the Mountain see in the prophecy that made him fear Daenerys?

Illyrio said: "Lord Magic Mountain, Duke Tywin did not order you to go to the bloody case in the nursery back then, but he would also order others to go. When a country is destroyed, any bloody thing that happens is beyond personal grievances, and we are all swayed and pushed by the forces of the situation, and no one can escape. ”

"That being said, but I did do things against humanity and knightly honor to the Targaryens, and I admit it. My duty as a seventeen-year-old soldier is naturally to carry out orders, and as a duke, I give such orders in order to curry favor with the new king, and to dispose of some dirty things for the new king. When a new king wants to sit on the Iron Throne, he needs clean honor, but dirty things always need to be done, just like a room, the king is the one who needs to clean the garbage, and I am the one who sweeps the garbage in the room. ”

"Lord Magic Mountain, I think I can understand what you said. If I could, I'd be sure to tell Daenerys about it. ”

Illyrio's wording said 'if it was possible', if the mountain took the money and killed him, then it would be 'absolutely impossible'.

"I think you have a good chance. Magic Mountain said.

"Lord Magic Mountain, I hope to have this honor. Illyrio's heart was overjoyed, and his face remained silent, and he began to dispel the Magic Mountain's concerns about the Faceless One.

"My lord, it is already difficult for me to prepare a million golden dragons as a ransom for my life, if I spend any more money to invite the Faceless One to assassinate my lord, the first difficulty is that the cost is a staggering amount; I don't think Varys and my butler would be stupid enough to spend a fortune on a faceless to assassinate you, and I'm going to die if the faceless one kills you, but I really don't want to die, my lord. ”
