Chapter 190 Dangerous Chess
"Of course Your Majesty can't go!"
Oberyn's voice fell when someone spoke.
"Since Pentos has a connection with the usurper, why do you want to trample the rights of guests?"
"Wouldn't that put the king in danger?"
"Your Majesty's body of gold must not take such a risk."
There was a commotion in the conference hall, and the other people nodded in approval of this person's point of view.
However, Oberyn did not speak, holding the information in his hand, he raised his head and looked at Viserys.
His thinking was different from the others, and with Viserys' arrangement just now, it seemed that he had vaguely guessed his true intentions.
really.
Oberyn looked at Viserys, and Viserys had a quiet expression on his face listening to the noise of everyone around him, and he didn't speak in a hurry.
Then, when everyone closed their mouths and their eyes fell on him, they nodded slightly and spoke in a calm tone.
"go."
"why are you not going?"
The answer that Viserys opened up surprised everyone present except Oberyn and Bessie.
"I dared to go to Braavos alone when I was eight, so why dare I go to Pentos now?"
"Is it going backwards as you live?"
"but."
Many former ministers looked at each other, wanting to say that these two are not the same problem at all, but they opened their mouths but did not say anything.
"Besides...and half of the conservative governors, things are not necessarily going in a bad direction."
Viserys smiled, then slowly receded.
And Oberon has long since made up his mind, feeling that this young man has undergone earth-shaking changes over the years.
Thinking about the first time he saw Viserys, the boy fell asleep in the bathtub because he was too tired. When he opened his eyes, he saw a stranger. The depths of his eyes were full of panic, but he still squeezed tightly. Fist pretended to be calm.
"He's not bold..."
"Just being brave—"
A phrase from a ballad flashed through Oberyn's mind for some unknown reason.
That is the story of a wandering knight who travels alone.
The afternoon meeting ended quickly.
Viserys did not persuade them to stay for dinner.
And after the meeting, Oberon was waiting for him outside the door, unsurprisingly.
"Walk together?"
Oberon had a slender, slender waist and broad shoulders, looking perfect, with a mess of black curly hair on the top of his head and a light beard.
Then he raised his chin slightly.
"Can."
And Viserys was not surprised that Oberyn was waiting for him at the door, and nodded immediately.
There is a garden in Fort Andalos.
Although there are no rare and precious varieties planted, it can also provide a bright color, but the weather is getting colder and colder recently. Although the continent of Essos does not border the land of eternal winter, the icy cold wind is still inevitable. was affected.
Now the flowers in the garden have withered quite a bit.
But the two men didn't really come to enjoy the flowers, it was just an opportunity for a private conversation.
"His Majesty."
"Prince."
The passing servant saw the two walking side by side in the garden, bowed slightly and saluted, and then hurried away without disturbing them.
"You're making a dangerous move, Viserys."
"Are you sure that Pantos will be fooled, and what if he fails?"
sunset.
The sky was blood red like the color of that magic weapon.
The two walked side by side in the garden, shadows fell on the flat marble slabs of the garden, and Viserys, who was only fifteen years old, was only a little shorter than Oberyn.
Then this Prince of Dorne took the initiative to break the silence, turned his head to look at Viserys and said.
Viserys and Oberyn could also be regarded as a long-term acquaintance, and the two were ten years apart in age.
But it's very interesting that the two of them have a common topic, and sometimes they have some wild ideas that can be chatted together, and then they become friends.
Oberyn would call Viserys His Majesty in official occasions, but he would call him by his first name in private, and Viserys had no problem with that.
"Dangerous chess?"
Viserys turned to look at Oberyn.
He knew that Oberyn's concerns were justified, if only on the surface it was indeed a risky move, but...
"It's not a risky move, Oberyn."
Oberyn could guess his intentions and he wasn't surprised.
After all, the two have known each other for so long, and from the very beginning, Oberyn did not treat him as a child, but as an adult.
In addition, this guy's brain is indeed smarter than others. As expected of the person who has obtained six maester links, Viserys can often guess what Oberyn thinks.
but
It's a pity that this guy died in the original trajectory.
The Mountain wasn't scary, and Viserys never considered it a rival, even though his hands were stained with Targaryen blood.
For such a reckless man, Viserys could kill him by arranging dozens of soldiers or digging a trap.
The real enemies of Viserys are Robert, Stannis, Tywin Lannister, Eddard Stark, Randall Tarly and so on.
A guy who can obviously rely on his head to eat must have a one-on-one duel with the number one villain in the Seven Kingdoms.
Viserys glanced up at Oberyn, but Oberyn felt a chill in his eyes.
"what?"
Prince Dorn involuntarily scratched his hair slightly, not knowing why.
However, Viserys didn't explain much to Oberyn, just shook his head.
"Oberron, I never joke about my life. I'm more afraid of death than many people."
"Since I dare to do it, I must have the backing to do it."
He knew that Pantos' trip might be dangerous, and he was even a little nervous because of it.
However, he was still willing to be brave enough to try it.
After all, this is the best way to continue to break the game. If you can't seize this opportunity, I am afraid that it will become extremely difficult to make further progress in the future.
Winter is coming.
This is the best chance.
"Oberron, trust me."
Viserys smiled as the wind blew in the garden.
"Is it?"
And Oberyn is a little unclear, he is still immersed in the eyes that Viserys looked at him just now.
It felt... as if looking at a dead person.
what's the situation?
Oberyn stopped in the garden, scratching his head, watching Viserys's back fade away.
