Chapter 122: Robert the Irritated
In the vast sky, the huge and vigorous figure of Blazing Shadow fluttered high in the sky. Gavin and Daenerys sat firmly on the back of the dragon, their clothes rustling in the wind.
Chiying's broad dragon wings flapped powerfully, leading them to rush towards the direction of Dragon Flame Bay. Gavin planned in his mind to take advantage of this return to hatch more baby dragons to increase their power.
Not long after, the blazing shadow flew over the Dragon Flame Bay, like a bolt of lightning rushing down towards the deep dragon cave.
In the dragon's lair, the three young dragons, Yunshuang, Wuying and Huajiao, have grown up a lot. They are having fun, fighting and chasing each other, causing the dust to fly.
However, when Chiying's shocking roar came, the originally noisy scene instantly fell silent. The three young dragons all stopped and hid aside obediently, with awe and submission in their eyes.
Blazing Shadow flew gracefully into the dragon's lair and landed steadily on the huge stone platform. Gavin and Daenerys jumped off the dragon's back steadily. With a thought in Gavin's heart, Yunshuang, Wuying and Horns immediately sensed the situation and flew out excitedly, roaring around Gavin, as if telling their thoughts and joy.
Daenerys also hurriedly gave instructions to the Blood Dragon Guard on the side. Soon, a basin of fresh tender meat was brought over. Seeing this, Viserion on the side also squeezed over. At this time, its size Already more than one meter long, three young dragons were pushed aside with one collision.
Gavin immediately calmed the dragons, and while skillfully feeding the three joyful and grown-up young dragons and Viserion, he whispered to Daenerys: "After this period of work is over, go to Lys. You can come with me when the time comes, but now I think it’s safer to keep you by my side.”
Daenerys snuggled against Gavin tenderly and said softly: "It's all up to you, Gavin."
At this time, the Dragon Cave was filled with a warm and peaceful atmosphere, as if the wind and rain from the outside world could not invade this world.
King's Landing - Red Keep
At the same time, the atmosphere in the imperial conference hall was solemn, and an imperial meeting was being held nervously.
Robert Baratheon looked gloomy, glared at Petyr angrily, and scolded: "Littlefinger, the assassin you found this time is absolutely useless, far worse than last time, and there is no news yet!"
Petyr quickly explained with fear and fear: "Your Majesty, the opponent's defense is too tight and it will be difficult to break through for a while. The assassination is extremely difficult. It is normal that there is no news for the time being. We need to wait patiently."
Robert turned his attention to Varys again. The intelligence chief known as the "Eight-clawed Spider" said: "I heard that the remnant also has a baby dragon?"
Varys stood up and responded respectfully: "Yes, Your Majesty, although there is no definite information from the Stepstone Islands yet, countless gossips and rumors are spreading. If nothing else, Princess Daenerys has a baby dragon. It should be true that it is a red baby dragon, but your Majesty, don’t worry, it takes a long time for a baby dragon to grow up, and it is difficult to develop combat power in a short period of time.”
When Robert heard this, he was so angry that he slammed the wine glass in his hand on the table, causing the wine to splash everywhere. He angrily scolded the ministers below: "But she is going to marry Gavin Belerys. That traitor's dragons are not small, and he also has a fleet. What use do I need you losers? Targaryen has dragons, Don’t you know how much impact it will have on the kingdom?”
Then, he looked at Littlefinger fiercely and ordered: "Go to the assassin again, send more, and be sure to get rid of her. If you have the chance, get rid of Gavin as well!"
Littlefinger looked helpless and could only bite the bullet and explain: "Your Majesty, the danger of assassinating Daenerys and Gavin is extremely high at this time. I'm afraid not many people are willing to do it. Besides, even if the assassination is successful, it will be very difficult in a short time." It is difficult to succeed. The defense force of the Stone Step Islands is very tight. For some reason, foreign ships are not allowed to land on the island recently and can only replenish supplies and fresh water at the port. "
After hearing this, Robert calmed down a little, sat on the chair, and drank the red wine in the glass in one gulp. He just felt distraught at the moment and things were getting messy. Jon Arryn had always been there to advise him before, but since his death, even the day-to-day political affairs had bothered him.
There is also his brother Stannis, who has called him to King's Landing from Dragonstone many times, but has refused to answer the call. He wanted to launch a war against the Stepstone Islands, but he was unable to do so because of his lack of cooperation.
Robert knew that Stannis had always wanted the position of Prime Minister, but he didn't like his younger brother and was really unwilling to give it to him. If Stannis was given the Prime Ministership to Stannis, he would probably have to see him every day in the future. With that ugly face, he could even shut down the brothels in King's Landing.
Thinking of these troubles, he wanted to drink another drink but found that the wine glass beside him was empty. Robert scolded Lancel behind him again: "You idiot from Lannister, didn't you see that your king's wine glass is empty?"
Lancel shivered immediately and hurriedly refilled Robert's wine. Robert drank again. The red wine flowed down the corner of his mouth and soaked his beard. The wine did not calm Robert's mood. He frowned and sighed heavily.
Then he looked straight at Paixir, who was sitting below in silence for a long time. He asked gloomily: "Is there any news about the raven sent to the north?"
When Pyxil heard the question, he trembled, stood up tremblingly, bowed deeply and said: "Your Majesty, I have not received a reply from Winterfell yet. After all, serving as the Prime Minister is related to the important affairs of the kingdom. I believe that Lord Ned Stark is also carefully considering it and needs time to make a decision."
Robert snorted coldly, his face full of dissatisfaction and irritability: "I knew he was a stubborn person, I'm afraid I have to go to the North myself"
Then, Robert turned his gaze to Barristan behind him, He ordered in an unquestionable tone: "Prepare guards and ships. I'm going to Dragonstone to talk to Stannis. During this time, prepare for the trip to the North. I'll set off when I come back. Also, inform the queen that she and the children, as well as my heir Joffrey, will also accompany you."
After hearing this, Barristan did not dare to be negligent at all. He immediately bowed and said, "As you command, Your Majesty."
When everyone in the royal meeting heard Robert's order, they were all silent at this time. No one dared to speak easily, and the atmosphere in the whole room became more and more depressing and heavy.
Robert's brows were still furrowed. Looking at the group of yes-men sitting below, the annoyance in his heart became heavier like a mess. Then he ignored the ministers and stood up to leave. Seeing this, everyone stood up to show respect.
