Chapter 47

Silent night.

Viserys was sleeping on his side on the big soft bed in his bedroom.

The long silver-gold hair spreads out on the pillow, the boy has enviable delicate skin, his handsome cheeks are white and rosy, and his lips are gently pursed.

And at this time.

Suddenly there were some strange noises in the castle. It seemed that there was a faint shouting sound, and then it turned into a clanging fighting sound, accompanied by a screaming sound.

Today, the sky has been vaguely white with fish belly.

Dawn has come.

Viserys had just closed his eyes and hadn't slept for a few hours before he was awakened by the chaotic noise.

The boy's long eyelashes trembled slightly, and then he finally slowly opened those lavender eyes like gems.

"Damn."

Viserys rolled over and sat up from the bed, pulling off the soft quilt, and his long silver-blond hair fell over his shoulders.

At first there was some confusion and impatience in his eyes, but he finally shook his head to disperse the irrelevant elements in his brain.

He also heard the noise outside, as well as the sound of weapons colliding, and the screams of killing were constantly approaching, and he instantly understood what was happening.

"Has it started yet?"

Viserys' last hazy drowsiness was dispelled, and he was instantly awake.

In fact, Viserys already had some information about Sir Shad's betrayal.

The reason is naturally that some clues were discovered long ago.

At the beginning, the death of Bachelor Daniel was full of doubts, a bit like being poisoned.

Before he died, the old maester also took Viserys' hand, and whispered a few words in his ear, just to tell him that there were people with dissent in the castle, and Viserys should be more careful.

The old scholar has a very long lifespan, at least in this era, it is considered a long life. He has traveled the road and met many people in his life.

After teaching Viserys himself for months, he came to a conclusion that he had never told anyone.

This conclusion was buried in the old maester's heart until he walked into the coffin.

It may also sound a little unbelievable.

That is...he thinks Prince Viserys is better than Prince Rhaegar.

This may not sound like what many people think, but the old maester still sticks to his inner judgement.

He had taught Rhaegar himself, and he later taught Viserys.

He even spent far more time in contact with Rhaegar than he spent with His Royal Highness the second prince.

Prince Rhaegar is indeed wise, there is no problem, but the wisdom of this prince is still limited to a certain frame, perhaps this era, perhaps this world.

The old maester wouldn't think there was a problem with that, because Rhaegar's intelligence also amazed him.

However, since Maester Daniel came into contact with Viserys and had an in-depth conversation with the child. The old bachelor was stunned to find that Viserys was always able to inadvertently bring up some ideas that were beyond this era, and even beyond this world.

Some of these ideas are shocking, some are unrealistic, and some are extraordinary.

Bachelor Daniel thinks he has read a lot of books, from the Era of Heroes 8,000 years ago to today's many miscellaneous books.

However, Viserys's ideas have never been confined to this framework, and perhaps that's what makes it all the more great.

That's why the old maester took Viserys' hand on his deathbed, put him on his lips, and told him about it, not Queen Layla.

Because the old maester thinks Viserys must do better than his mother.

And Viserys has always lived up to the expectations of the old bachelor before he died. He has not told anyone, not even his mother, since he knew about it.

Of course, he was not worried that his mother would leak the secret, but his mother's mental state at that time was already very bad.

Often inexplicably angry or crying.

Viserys didn't want these things to disturb Queen Layla's recuperation, so he had been laying out silently by himself.

However, the hard work paid off. After the death of the old maester, Viserys discovered that the raven cage responsible for external communications on Dragonstone Island had been touched.

It seems that after getting rid of the old maester, someone borrowed a raven to pass some news to the outside world.

But the other party's actions have been very careful, and Viserys has not found any clues, so it has been difficult to determine the other party's identity.

Is it a person or a group of people.

Viserys, however, had deliberately told Sir William of this before his expedition with the fleet this time.

The instructor, as Viserys' swordsmanship teacher, once sacrificed his life to save Queen Layla and Viserys mother and son. Without him, Viserys would have been dead long ago, so Sir William should be trusted.

Viserys hoped that the coach could help to notice that after he left, someone could not wait to reveal himself.

This is also the reason why Sir William hesitated several times in the face of Viserys just now.

However, Viserys did not let him speak.

Because the boy had already obtained the news through other channels before returning to Dragonstone Island, and understood who the traitor hidden on the island was.

During the return of the fleet, a small boat was intercepted in the waters near the edge of Dragonstone Island.

However, it was chased by experienced sailors in the fleet in a small boat, and finally blocked it.

Several people on the boat even wanted to jump off the boat to commit suicide, but only one person was drowned, while the rest were brought up.

In the end, after harsh interrogation, these people finally confessed their identities.

These people are all from King's Landing, and Ser Shad, the acting lord of Dragonstone, has secretly taken refuge with the Baratheon family.

King Robert on the Iron Throne even promised him a castle and the title of Earl with a swipe of the pen.

However, because of the fact that there is a fleet stationed on Dragonstone Island, they have no way to directly hand over the mother and son of Queen Layla, so they have been waiting for the opportunity.

Then there was the opportunity for a storm surge.

They knew it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to kill Queen Layla and Viserys and escape while the fleet was battered by a storm, or a chance to sail out of port.

But things happened once again at a turning point.

Viserys actually left with the Dragonstone fleet, and they didn't know where the fleet was going.

Sir Geoffrey was hot-tempered and stubborn, and did not take his acting lord in his eyes at all.
