Game of Thrones: The Wrath of the Sleeping Dragon

However, at that moment, one of the wise rulers pondered for a moment and then spoke.

"Her Majesty Empress Daenerys Targaryen of the Valyrian Empire, known as the 'Stormborn' and the 'Mother of Dragons.'" (Gu Zhao)

The wise ruler's words caused everyone present to exchange bewildered glances before nodding in agreement.

indeed.

If the identity were confirmed to be that of a woman, the first person everyone would think of would be her: Daenerys Targaryen, the young queen of the Valyrian Empire.

It is said that she led the imperial army to conquer Valantis in the far west, launching a massive religious war.

She unleashed a bloody massacre in the city of Valantis, killing in the streets all those who disobeyed her rules and dared to defy her. At the same time, the imperial empress ordered the burning of many temples and shrines.

According to information received from Slaver's Bay, the scope of this religious war is still expanding, and Daenerys shows no sign of backing down.

However, just as the wise lords of Yunkai were watching this distant war with a sense of detached amusement, news suddenly arrived from Astapo in the south.

The Empress of the Empire suddenly descended upon Astapor on a dragon and purchased five thousand Unsullied on credit.

They are now heading towards Yunkai, seemingly intending to coerce Yunkai and the rulers of Meereen into purging the churches of Rahlo, the Pale Child, and others within their territory.

This message came from the benevolent lords of Astapor, so it is undoubtedly true that the city-states of Slaver's Bay are united and, although conflicts and contradictions occasionally break out, they still stand firmly on the same side when it comes to outsiders.

"She wants to eradicate the Crimson God Cult in Yunkai City?"

In the past, this request might not have been difficult, since Rahlo was not a mainstream religion in the land of Gugis. However, the harpy had just sent down an oracle, demanding that they be stopped, so these wise lords could not possibly agree.

"What exactly did the Red God Church do to offend her?"

One of the wise rulers couldn't help but ask.

"I heard they sent someone to assassinate her son, a four-year-old boy, a prince of the Valyrian Empire."

Another wise ruler shrugged and spoke.

"If it's this kind of hatred, then they might indeed do irrational things."

"We all know that once a woman becomes a mother, she only has eyes for her child, and her husband has to take a backseat."

Upon hearing the explanation from another wise leader, everyone showed expressions of understanding. The Crimson God Cult sending assassins to kill a mother's child would inevitably enrage them, and they might do anything.

But their ability to understand doesn't mean they will accept it.

"Pity."

"The true god has issued a divine decree that this bitch will surely suffer defeat in Yuankai."

At the top of the yellow pyramid, the wise rulers spoke with great confidence.

"Don't be too happy yet, gentlemen."

However, at this moment, Grazdan Mo Erraz, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke up.

"This empress from the empire possesses a dragon and five thousand Unsullied."

"Although the Unsullied are not good at siege warfare and lack siege weapons, how should we deal with the dragons?"

Chapter 952 Trap

"Your Majesty Daenerys Targaryen!"

"Sister and Queen of Viserys the Great Valyrian Conqueror, 'Stormborn,' 'Mother of Dragons.'"

A few days later, the walls of Yuankai were somewhat dilapidated, all built of yellow bricks. The walls were filled with slave soldiers, who held high the banners of harpies. At this moment, the gates of Yuankai were wide open, and all the wise lords in the city came out to welcome the little queen who had come from afar.

Daenerys was not riding a dragon, but a snow-white pony, following the army on the ground. Her mount, the white dragon Viserion, was circling in the sky, letting out low growls.

"Welcome to the ancient city of Yuankai."

"Please come into the city."

Every city-state in Slaver's Bay has a history spanning thousands of years, and their walls are etched with the marks of time. As a result, whenever Daenerys arrives at a place, the locals will first describe it as ancient or glorious.

The person who stepped forward to greet Daenerys at that moment was one of Yunkai's wise lords, Grazdan Mo Erraz, from the ancient Erraz family, known as the Lord of Mortals and the Barbarian Negotiator. He was also the first person to hear the harpy's oracle.

"However, please understand that the army behind you is too formidable, causing fear among the nobles of Yuankai. Therefore, you can only bring a small number of guards into the city."

Wearing an indigo toka robe, Grazdan Mo Erraz bowed slightly with one hand on his chest and spoke politely.

At the same time, there was nothing wrong with what he said. After all, Daenerys brought an army of five thousand men with her, and of course, it was impossible for them all to enter the city. Therefore, Daenerys was only allowed to enter the city with a small number of guards.

The wise lords of Yunkai welcomed the Empire's young queen into the city, but Daenerys, sitting on horseback, looked down at the wise lords of Yunkai who called themselves Grazdan mo Erraz, and her eyes flickered slightly.

Although Daenerys hasn't experienced the setbacks and hardships of the original timeline, she has long been able to stand on her own, just like Reyne, and is certainly not a naive little girl.

Faced with a massive army pressing in, the enemy suddenly appeared before her with five thousand Unsullied soldiers and a giant dragon. However, without inquiring about her purpose, they opened the gates and gestured for her to enter the city, which aroused Daenerys' suspicion.

Under normal circumstances, if a large, unfamiliar army suddenly approaches, the city, regardless of its strength, should actively prepare defenses and inquire about the army's intentions, rather than allowing the army to arrive at the city gates as the rulers of Yuankai did, or even opening the gates to invite them in.

Daenerys was immediately filled with suspicion.

But the silver-haired queen did not show any unusual expression. Instead, she dismounted, held the reins, looked the other person up and down, and then suddenly smiled.

"No, Lord Grazdan Mo Erraz."

"I'm just here to convey my purpose. The evil church organizations such as the Red God Church sent people to assassinate my children, so I vow to eradicate them from the world."

“I understand that the Yunkai people worship harpies, not gods like Rahlo, so I wish to request Lord Grazdan Mo Eraz and all the wise lords of Yunkai to expel these red monks from Yunkai, just as Norfos did many years ago.”

The silver-haired little queen had changed into a snow-white robe full of exotic charm that was more in line with the culture of the ancient Gis people. Standing under the horse, holding the reins, she suddenly smiled, which was quite stunning. It even made the wise ruler, who was wearing an indigo toka robe, momentarily lose his composure before he came back to his senses.

"Could it be that I've given myself away?"

He heard that Daenerys had refused to enter the city, which made Grazdan Mo Erraz somewhat anxious.

However, he dared not show it too much, since the other wise lords were all standing far away below the city, while he alone walked up to the Unsullied army.

If any disturbance occurs, the other wise lords can immediately hide in the city and close the gates, while he, Grazdan Mo Erraz, is doomed.

Because Volantis had recently fallen and the city where the Cult of the Red Gods was headquartered had suffered a bloody purge, everyone claimed that the young Queen Daenerys Targaryen was ruthless.

Rumors even describe her as warlike, cruel, and promiscuous; she feeds her dragons with infants, pierces anyone who dares to defy her with a spear, and, after the disappearance of Emperor Viserys, enjoys a different lover every night and bathes in the blood of virgins to maintain her youthful beauty.

Grazdan Mo Erraz was somewhat flustered, but he tried his best to remain calm and coax Daenerys into the city.

"Your Majesty, we understand your purpose in coming, but this matter is of great importance, and we still need to consider it."

"You'd be very welcome to visit Yuankai during this time; the people of Yuankai are extremely hospitable..."

pop-

Then Grazdan Mo Erraz clapped his hands.

The slaves following behind him knelt under the scorching sun, sweating profusely, but dared not move an inch. However, upon hearing their master's signal, the slaves quickly stood up and took out some gifts that had been prepared in advance.

Several large chests were placed in front of Daenerys. The Unsullied guards who were following Daenerys took a few steps forward and also protected their mistress behind them. Daenerys waved her hand to indicate that they did not need to be too nervous.

The slaves then opened the chests, which were filled with gold and silver jewels. Daenerys's eyes narrowed slightly at the sight.

Meanwhile, Grazdan Mo Erraz, who had been observing Daenerys's expression, noticed the look on her face, felt a slight unease, and quickly added.

"Your Majesty Queen Daenerys Targaryen, the nobles of Yunkai are terrified by your arrival with your army and dragons. If you desire bloodshed, rivers of blood will flow. But why bother?"

“All problems can be resolved through negotiation. These red-robed monks are not very well-liked in Yuankai. We people of Yuankai sincerely want to make friends.”

"These are gifts prepared by the wise lords of Yuankai for the Silver-haired Queen."

Grazdan Mo Erraz spoke eloquently, while secretly observing Daenerys's expression. (The last phrase, "制大制枭," is a Chinese idiom meaning "to control a great tyrant" and doesn't directly relate to the preceding sentence.)

After listening to what the other party said, Daenerys remained expressionless, seemingly showing some genuine change in her expression, and then nodded slightly.

"In that case..."

"Then I'll bring a hundred guards into the city as guests."

Chapter 953 Anti-Routine

Daenerys agreed to go into the city, and Grazdan Mo Erraz was secretly delighted, but he didn't show it on his face.

He then bowed again, placing one hand on his chest in an inviting gesture, welcoming Daenerys to Yunkai.

Daenerys, seemingly unsuspecting, waved her hand and, taking some Unsullied soldiers as guards, prepared to enter the city.

"That dragon bitch has fallen for the trap!"

On the other side, the wise lords standing near the opened city gates watched what was happening from afar. Then they saw Grazdan Mo Erraz make an inviting gesture, and Daenerys walked towards them with her guards. They were overjoyed.

"quick!"

"Everyone, ready!"

It turned out that these wise lords had already laid an ambush near the city gate. They decided not to give Daenerys any time to react. As soon as she entered the city, they would launch an attack and capture her alive.

However, what they didn't expect was that all of this was seen by the white dragon Viserion flying in the sky, including the troop movements behind the city walls and the ambushes they had set up.

Perhaps these wise rulers have also considered this issue, but they feel that dragons are, after all, just beasts. Even if dragons can breathe dragon fire, they cannot speak human language.

Therefore, theoretically, even if it saw her, it couldn't tell Daenerys. So everything was ready, just waiting for the woman to come to the city gate, then it could rush in, seize her, and solve the task entrusted by the true god.

Daenerys then rode her white horse under the protection of Unsullied soldiers to the gates of Yunkai. The Yunkai slave soldiers hidden at the gates gripped their weapons, awaiting their master's orders and ready to charge out at any moment.

At this moment, Grazdan Mo Erraz could hardly hide his smile. He had completely changed from his previous obsequious manner, and his eyes even revealed a mocking expression.

"Your Majesty the Empress."

“We Yuankai people have always been magnanimous. Although your ancestors committed barbaric acts here in history, it doesn’t matter. We are still willing to be your friend.”

"But why did you insist on coming here?"

Why don't you ride your dragon back to Westeros?

"If you are willing to leave, we can even give you a fleet of ships to take your Unsullied legion with you."

In fact, unless absolutely necessary, these wise rulers of Yunkai would not want to offend the Valyrian Empire, which is far away.

However, the oracle of the true god could not be disobeyed. But if Daenerys was willing to leave, they did not want to kill her. They were even willing for all the wise lords to contribute funds to give her a fleet of ships so that this plague would leave this place as soon as possible.

Otherwise, if we actually kill the other party, who knows if they will retaliate fiercely even though we are thousands of miles apart?

One day, they woke up to find several giant dragons flying over the heads of the Yunkai people and burning the entire city-state to the ground.

Therefore, these wise rulers only wanted to capture the enemy alive unless absolutely necessary, which is why they sent Grazdan Mo Eraz to trick the enemy into entering the city.
