Game of Thrones: The Red Dragon Lord.
Chapter 122: Robert the Irritable
Chapter 122: Robert the Irritable
In the boundless sky, the huge and agile figure of the Blazing Shadow flapped its wings and flew high, while Gavin and Daenerys sat firmly on the dragon's back, their clothes fluttering in the wind.
Blazing Shadow's broad dragon wings flapped vigorously, taking them to the direction of Dragon Flame Bay. Gavin planned to hatch more dragons after this return to increase their strength.
Soon, the blazing shadow flew over the Dragon Flame Bay and rushed down into the deep dragon's lair like a flash of lightning.
Inside the dragon's lair, the three young dragons, Yunshuang, Wuying and Jiaojiao, have grown a lot. They are having fun, hitting and chasing each other, stirring up dust.
However, when Blazing's terrifying roar was heard, the originally noisy scene instantly fell silent. The three young dragons stopped their movements and hid aside obediently, with awe and obedience 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. Gavin called out in his mind, and Cloud Frost, Mist Shadow and Horn immediately sensed it, flew out excitedly, and kept roaring around Gavin, as if telling of their thoughts and joy.
Daenerys also hurriedly gave instructions to the Blood Dragon Guards at the side, and soon a basin of fresh tender meat was brought over. Seeing this, Viserion at the side also squeezed over. At this time, his body was more than one meter long, and he pushed the three baby dragons aside with one collision.
Gavin immediately calmed the dragons. He fed the three cheerful and grown-up dragons and Viserion skillfully, and whispered to Daenerys, "When we are done with this, you can come with me to Lys. I think it is safer to leave you by my side now."
Daenerys leaned against Gavin tenderly and said in a soft voice, "I'll do as you say, Gavin."
At this time, the dragon's cave was filled with an atmosphere of warmth and tranquility, as if the wind and rain from the outside world could not invade this place.
King's Landing - The Red Keep
At the same time, in the imperial conference hall, the atmosphere was solemn and a tense imperial meeting was being held.
Robert Baratheon looked gloomy, staring at Petyr with wide eyes, and scolded: "Little Finger, the assassin you found this time is completely useless, far worse than last time, and there is still no news!"
Petyr hurriedly explained in fear and trepidation: "Your Majesty, the enemy's defense is too tight. It will be difficult to break through in a short time. 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 gaze to Varys, the intelligence chief known as the "Eight-clawed Spider" and 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 Stepstones, countless gossips and rumors are spreading. If nothing unexpected happens, it is true that Princess Daenerys has a baby dragon. It is a red baby dragon. But Your Majesty, you don't have to worry. It takes a long time for a baby dragon to grow up, and it is difficult for it to form combat power in a short time."
Robert was furious when he heard this. He slammed the wine glass in his hand on the table, splashing the wine. He angrily scolded the ministers below: "But she is going to marry Gavin Bellerys. That traitor has a big dragon and a fleet. What use do I have for you rubbish? Don't you know how much impact it will have on the kingdom if Targaryen has a dragon?" Then, he looked at Littlefinger fiercely and ordered: "Find more assassins, send more, and make sure to get rid of her. If there is a chance, get rid of Gavin too!"
Littlefinger looked helpless and could only bite the bullet and explain: "Your Majesty, it is extremely dangerous to assassinate Daenerys and Gavin right now. I am afraid that not many people are willing to do it. Moreover, even if the assassination is successful, it will be difficult to succeed in a short period of time. The defense of the Stepstone Islands is very strict now. For some reason, foreign ships are not allowed to land on the island recently. They can only replenish supplies and fresh water at the port."
Robert calmed down a little after hearing this, sat in a chair, and drank the red wine in the glass. He felt upset at the moment, and things became a mess. In the past, Jon Arryn always gave him advice, but since his death, even the daily political affairs bothered him.
And his brother Stannis summoned him from Dragonstone to King's Landing many times, but he refused to respond. He wanted to launch a war against the Stepstones, but he could not do so because of his non-cooperation.
Robert knew that Stannis had always wanted the position of Hand of the King, but he did not like his brother and was really unwilling to give it to him. If he gave the position of Hand of the King to Stannis, he would probably have to see his ugly face every day in the future. He might even close all the brothels in King's Landing.
Thinking of these troubles, he wanted to drink another glass but found that the glass beside him was empty. Robert scolded Lancel behind him again: "Fool from Lannister, don't you see that your king's glass is empty?"
Lancel immediately trembled and quickly filled Robert's glass with wine. Robert drank it all again, and the red wine flowed down the corners 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 Pysir, who had been sitting below for a long time without saying anything. He asked gloomily, "Any news about the ravens sent to the North?"
When Pythias heard the question, he couldn't help but tremble. He stood up tremblingly, bowed deeply and said, "Your Majesty, I haven't 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 considering it carefully 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 and ordered in an unquestionable tone: "Prepare guards and ships. I need to go to Dragonstone to talk to Stannis. In the meantime, prepare for the trip to the North. We will set out when I return. Also inform the queen that she and the children, as well as my heir Joffrey, will also be accompanying us."
Barristan did not dare to be negligent after hearing this. He immediately bowed and said, "As you command, Your Majesty."
When everyone in the royal meeting heard Robert's order, they were all silent. No one dared to speak easily, and the atmosphere in the whole room became increasingly depressing and heavy.
Robert's brows were still furrowed. Looking at the group of yes-men sitting below, the annoyance in his heart grew heavier like a tangled mess. Then he ignored the ministers and stood up to leave. Seeing this, everyone stood up to show their respect.
