Chapter 450: Pantos Conspiracy
But at the end Renice thought about it and asked a question.
"Tyrion, I heard that the Kingslayer was attacked and disappeared last night. This matter should have nothing to do with you, right?"
The Kingslayer killed the king he swore allegiance to, and the arrival of the Targaryen army in King's Landing naturally searched for Jaime Lannister's whereabouts.
Immediately after learning the news from last night, Cersei wanted to remove Jaime's military power, and sent the capital garrison to attack and detain the opponent, but was killed by Jaime and escaped in a bloody way.
James is now alive and dead, and Renice naturally received this information after entering King's Landing, but there is no other way than increasing the search.
And when Tyrion heard Renice's words, his expression froze slightly.
He did have such a thought, hiring mercenaries to attack the prison van, and then sending James to the Eastern Continent to create the illusion of being attacked.
But in the end, there were many accidents, and the disappearance of James really had nothing to do with Tyrion.
So the little devil stood on the steps in front of the Iron Throne and shook his head solemnly, denying it.
"No, Your Highness."
"I'm not aware of James' disappearance either."
Among the ministers in the audience, Varys, the intelligence minister, put his hands in his cuffs, and took a deep look at Tyrion's back on the steps, but kept his mouth shut.
The Targaryen army captured King's Landing, the capital of the Seven Kingdoms, without bloodshed, and the eldest princess Renice temporarily sat on the Iron Throne.
Then one after another orders came out from the Red Fort. The first was the ban on King's Landing, which still continued Cersei's curfew system.
Second, a wanted notice was issued to hunt down the 'Kingslayer' Jaime Lannister.
As long as you find his trace, you can receive a bounty of one hundred golden dragons, and if you capture the other party alive, you will be rewarded with one thousand golden dragons.
Then, he ordered the Grand Priest and the Archbishop, respectively, to inform the other lords and vassals of the Seven Kingdoms that King's Landing had changed hands in the name of the Iron Throne and the Seven Gods, and ordered them to surrender immediately.
During this time, the situation on Westeros has changed. Relatively speaking, Essos has become much quieter, except for several civil wars of the Dothraki that broke out on the grassy sea.
In the distant Wes Dothraki, by the lakeside of the 'Womb of the World', a hero who unifies the Dothraki seems to have risen.
During this period of time, the Dothraki were in the civil war, and they did not harass the Free Trade City-State at all, but the Free Trade City-State lived a comfortable life.
And among the pearl Pantos inlaid on the bay, Viserys' base camp, a conspiracy is going on in secret.
The ragged prince secretly summoned a group of mysterious guests in the prince's palace. They were once the nobles of Pentos, including the governor's family and the ancient Pentos nobles.
They hold the wealth of the country in their hands. It is said that the pools in which they bathe are full of milk, and even the toilets where they poop are made of pure gold.
However, all this disappeared when Viserys came.
The survivors of these houses held grudges against Viserys and the Ragged Prince after the cleansing of the Bloody Night.
Naturally, their wealth is not only stored in one place in Pantos, so these ancient nobles and governor families joined hands in foreign countries to secretly set up a revenge organization, hoping to retake their homeland in the future.
At this time, through the help of a certain force, the prince in ragged clothes started contact with the other party and threw olive branches to each other.
The prince in rags explained the reason for the bloody night to these remnants of the Pentos nobles, showing that he was a member of the noble blood. If Viserys hadn't forced him to use the knife, how could he have attacked his compatriots. Killer?
The prince in rags wants to be a real prince, and the remnants of the Pentos nobles want to restore the status and wealth of the former family in Pentos, so the two sides hit it off.
Because of the contact made several times before, this time Viserys expedition to the Seven Kingdoms took away most of Pantos's troops. This is naturally the best opportunity.
The Ragged Prince and many family representatives gathered in the Prince's Palace to conspire to overthrow Pentos' rule.
The prince in rags secretly contacted many former members of the wind blowing regiment, Xu Yigaoli. Some of these people did not get the treatment they imagined after surrendering to the Targaryen family, so they were dissatisfied.
As the former head of their regiment, the Prince in ragged clothes naturally knew these people well, taking advantage of their dissatisfaction and greed, and taking the opportunity to lure them with rich interests and a bright future.
On the other hand, these governors and aristocratic remnants, who still have considerable financial resources, hired a lot of mercenaries and free riders to sneak into Pantos secretly.
There is even a famous second son group that wants to replicate Viserys' plan to seize the city.
Tall, with pale green eyes and a bushy waist-length red-gold beard, Merlo 'Titan's Bastard' was so infamous for his brutality that the Second Sons rarely got employers under his command. 's mandate.
And this time the remnants of the Pentos nobles found him, and Mello agreed immediately.
He is not afraid to face the elite soldiers of the Targaryen family. He only cares whether the little princess who can control the dragon belongs to him. Mello wants her to give birth to a son, and his descendants can also have noble blood. .
The aristocratic remnants of Pentos agreed to him without hesitation when they heard his request. As long as he led the second sons to break through the protection of the eunuchs and captured Daenerys alive, he would reward him with the princess.
All went well with the plan.
The ragged prince negotiated with the representatives of the family for several days. This time, the ragged prince learned a lesson and set up his cronies around him to ensure that the news would not be leaked.
Now there are only 3,000 Unsullied and 3,000 city garrison left in Pentos City. The Unsullied are guarding inside and outside the Palace of the Nine Towers and are in the hands of Princess Daenerys, while the other 3,000 garrison are It was in the hands of former Prime Minister Jon Clinton.
The last expedition to Westeros had set off some time ago.
It was the Second Legion, led by Oberyn, with more than 15,000 people, who set off for Dragonstone with the pregnant queen-to-be Princess Arianne Martell, and the day should have arrived.
Although the number of troops in Pantos City is still not a small number, it is still too much less than the 50,000 people at its peak. Now is the best time to retake Pantos.
Their plan still fell on Daenerys, planning to lure her out to patrol, suddenly attack when passing some narrow terrain, after capturing Daenerys alive, her Unsullied soldiers and dragons are useless no matter how powerful The place of martial arts.
The plan was perfect, and today was the time for the insurgency to begin.
The gray-bearded prince in ragged clothes put on his armor again, refreshed, and walked out of the prince's palace to the street. The guards were preparing a horse for him.
At this moment, a hawker who was pushing a cart selling seafood and clams passed by him. Suddenly he took out a dagger from under the quilt, grabbed his shoulder and stabbed it several times along the gap of the armor.
Puff puff--
The prince in ragged clothes widened his eyes and tried to grab the other party, but he was in vain.
The opponent's figure was extremely agile, and immediately fled after the stab, and there was a piercing scream on the street.
The soldiers of the city garrison patrolling not far away were watching from the sidelines, and the ragged prince fell weakly in a pool of blood.
