Chapter 202 Long History
"Your Majesty, please."
"Prince, please."
Today Pentos is still the prince of the Rodney family.
He had been scared to pee his pants by Drogo's father, Bulbo Khal.
Fortunately, however, Pentos has had good weather for the past few years, and he is still able to have a head to sit on his throne of ivory and gold.
Viserys and Prince Pantos walked into the palace side by side, while the governors who followed had different expressions, their eyes flickering at the backs of Viserys and the prince, and they seemed to have ghosts.
Except for the two guards who followed Viserys, the rest of the soldiers he brought stayed in the Prince's Palace, and they would rush in at any time if there was a little trouble.
night.
The bright moon in the sky sheds a bright light. Tonight Pantos is a city that never sleeps, and the banquet in the prince's palace has just begun.
Viserys and Prince Rodney walked side by side through the long corridor, and then entered the Rotunda.
It was here that the horse king of Dothraki drove the prince of Pentos down from his throne with just a few people, and killed the salute officials representing the war in public, scaring all the governors of Pentos. dare not speak out.
"Your Majesty is very impressed by this place."
At this moment, a Governor Pantos who looked only in his thirties spoke up.
He was the youngest governor, and most of the other governors were in their 40s, 50s and 60s.
The man's face was frivolous, and he wore a colorful ring on his finger, and said in a light voice.
When Viserys first came to Pentos as a guest, this governor of Pentos seemed to be here.
Then the young governor seemed to have thought of something, raised his eyebrows slightly and said.
"Yes, sorry, I haven't introduced myself yet."
"I'm from the Scott family and was a Riverland noble many years ago."
The Scott family was once a noble in the Riverlands a hundred years ago, but left Westeros for unknown reasons.
In the end, he came to Pantos and set his feet, and grew into a wealthy family of Pantos.
The family has huge assets, including three chambers of commerce, and countless shops, almost monopolizing an industry, so this young Scott was able to become a member of the Governor.
"Oh?"
"It's a pleasure to meet the Governor."
When Governor Scott saw the face of this Targaryen young king, he just smiled, neither nervous nor uneasy, and his heart suddenly rose.
He was familiar with the family history, and the Scott family was forced to leave their hometown and flee to Pentos, which was not unrelated to the original king.
Although the Scott family was very small at that time, it was only affected by a little bit, but it was enough for them to break the bones, and finally decided to escape from Westeros.
Now in karma, Targaryen was forced to flee Westeros, and even lost the Iron Throne.
"Humph--"
Governor Scott snorted coldly, feeling a little unhappy, but he didn't mention the family's past, but his tone was indifferent.
"Pentos has stood on this land for nearly a thousand years, ever since the Valyrians established the city as a trading outpost."
"In this thousand years, from kings and dukes to ordinary soldiers and slaves."
"Even dragons."
Pantos has a long history.
"Countless people have come here, and countless people have ruled this land, but they have turned into a handful of loess, but Pantos still stands here."
two years ago.
A mighty kalassi from the Dothraki Sea came to Pentos.
The old Kaa, who is already old, knows that his time is short, and wants to use this opportunity to stand up for his son.
Yet he failed.
He frightened the prince of Pentos, and he was very angry, but in the end he died at the hands of a man.
Governor Scott's voice was cold.
But Viserys could hear the threat in his words.
Anyone can ride on top of Pantos for a short time, but in the end the city still stands, and it will always be the one who has the last laugh.
Viserys also turned his head to look at the young Governor, squinting his eyes a little more strangely.
It can be heard from his words that the death of Balbokao two years ago seems to be inseparable from Pantos.
Or this is a conspiracy of Pentos.
Easily let a grassland overlord fall apart, divided into several cards LS, led by several Kao.
Perhaps it was the original Balbokao who posed a huge threat to Pantos.
Or for other reasons, Viserys didn't know the inside story.
However, the final result is that Bulbo Kao died, and his card LS was also disbanded.
"You are right."
"No one can rule Pentos forever."
Viserys nodded and seemed to agree with what the other party said, and then said in a calm voice, but his words made the other party choked, and then his face became a little gloomy.
As he himself said, no one can rule Pentos forever...
So, who is the ruler of Pentos now?
"Humph."
The young governor gave a gloomy snort, and then returned to his seat without saying anything.
"Your Majesty, please take a seat."
At this time, another governor who was slightly older sat in his seat and said.
He was Governor Keepel of the Keen family, an old man with gray hair, dressed in a blue velvet robe with golden threads framing the edges.
His attitude towards Viserys seemed to be the kindest on the surface.
When he came to Pentos two years ago, aside from Illyrio, he and Viserys talked the most.
Viserys also nodded slightly, then climbed the steps and sat back to his seat.
His location is very close to Prince Pantos, and the entire rotunda starts from the throne of Prince Pantos in the shape of a circle, with steps below.
The prince is the head of Pantos, and the governor, as the actual person in power, has no seat lower than the prince at all, except that he does not sit in the center, which can be seen from here.
Before the banquet started, the hall was noisy and people were whispering, and the attendants were busy carrying desserts and fruit plates.
"Hall family, Governor Vogt!"
The messenger's voice was mixed with the chaotic voices, and another governor arrived, a man in his fifties with a strong body and a military uniform, and then sat directly in his seat.
Viserys took a few more glances at the Governor, because he realized that he had not met two years before.
The governors of Pentos were not present at every meeting.
The last time Viserys came to Pentos, the governor of Hall did not come, but this time all the governors seemed to be present.
