Chapter 174 Troublesome Engagement

"But maybe we are all wrong." Meeting a unique Targaryen is the Seahorse family's luck.

Marrying a daughter and marrying a wife is a means to improve the family status, but it is not the only means.

It’s hard to say whether the former is useful. After all, the Game of Thrones players on the table are all cunning and cunning, and only benefits are eternal.

"As female heirs, I am in a very similar situation to you, but I have seen different results from you." At this point, the uncrowned queen's eyes flashed with memories for a moment, but she quickly woke up and said:

Rhaenyra nodded.

Rhaenys is a proud person, but she is also extremely sober. Even though her original body Rhaenyra gave birth to three "Varyrians" that made the Seven Kingdoms gossip, she bravely rode Melias towards Sunfire and

Vhagar of Aemond, upholding the honor of his descendants.

Colles didn't say anything; he was a man of action.

"Princess..." Corles held back this sentence for a while, "What do you think of Francis, the son of Neptune?"

"Francis?" That big fat man was quite nice. He took the money and actually got things done. Now he ranks high on the hatred list of the Tyrosh nobles in the city, second only to Rhaenyra's men.

"We..." Kores gritted his teeth and revealed a secret, "When Francis came to Tyrosh, we concluded a secret engagement!"

Seven Gods! Rhaenyra seemed to hear a thunderbolt from the blue, shaking her to the core.

"I asked why Francis is so loyal and reasonable. It turns out it's because he wants to become the son-in-law of Chaotou Island!"

Helping relatives but not helping others, no wonder the resolution of the Supreme Council is so fast, it should usually be delayed for several months.

Their "boss" has some tricks up his sleeve.

"Lannar..." Fortunately, she is not here now, riding Vhagar to herd the dragons, otherwise she might fly away like Lyanna Stark! (The wrong spring protagonist, abandoning her marriage to Robert,

Elopes with Prince Rhaegar)

"This decision is also related to you." Hearing this sentence, Rhaenyra's face was full of doubts.

Corless sighed and said, "These days, the movements in the Red Keep only mean one thing. His Majesty Viserys will not marry a Velaryon bride."

The reason, of course, is to ensure Rhaenyra's heir status! It's the same in the original book, Viserys would rather lead the wolf into the house than Velaryon.

"So for family reasons, we secretly got engaged to the son of Neptune."

To be honest, this marriage is really a good match in the eyes of most nobles. With the support of the Braavos people, Tidehead Island has no one to compete with on the narrow sea.

"But the motives of the Braavos people are not simple - it's for the dragons. Don't forget, they still have three leaked dragon eggs in their treasury. Once they marry Lannar, the dragon eggs may hatch."

Rhaenyra was so disgusted by this engagement that she wished she could mount Syrax and burn that bastard.

Not only does he covet the Dragon Family of the Seven Kingdoms, but he also wants to get his hands on the giant dragon. How brave!

Colles opened his heart and told Kaiba's plan. Obviously, they also realized that something was wrong.

"However, your plan may be in vain." The fat man from Braavos is not a "quick son-in-law", but a real son-in-law!

"Braavos is not decided by Sea King alone, and the current Sea King's physical condition..."

He looked in high spirits, but he was actually very ill and could not live for more than a few years.

"The seat of Sea King is not hereditary. How long can Francis be protected by his father? He is not a family man. When the time comes, he will have his wealth confiscated by the Braavos people, expelled from the country, and he will go to Tidehead Island with a marriage contract to ask for asylum."

Like in the main story, when Quentin Martell comes to visit Daenerys with an engagement contract, the situation is different, but the moods of Dany and Corless should not be much different.

Hearing Rhaenyra's stern analysis of the Sea King's situation, Corless and the Uncrowned Queen were also shaken in their hearts. Thinking of Francis coming to seek refuge penniless, they felt unreasonably disgusted.

The pearl of Chaotou Island did not just fall on cow dung.

"Even if Francis is lucky enough to stabilize the situation, I will take action and kill this fat man." Dark thoughts appeared in Rhaenyra's mind.

There should be no suspense about the fate of Francis, because in the original book, the son of the Sea King was engaged to Lannal. Velaryon thought he had found a good helper, but in the end he did not expect that he would go to Tidehead Island to eat and drink and become Corles

He is a thorn in his side, a thorn in his flesh, and makes him angry just by looking at him.

"But the engagement has been made, what should we do?" The uncrowned queen loves her children very much. If she is a dragon and marries such a man, it will be more than unfortunate.

But now it's too late to break the contract.

"Neptune's side will not protect the interests of Tidal Head Island, that's for sure." Helping sign the Treaty of Tyrosh was a deliberate show of "integrity" by Francis.

"All they want is to get their hands on the dragon through the marriage contract. If Francis cannot play his role, when Neptune falls, it will be the day of reckoning.

So you don’t have to worry about this engagement, you can even use it to benefit the Seven Kingdoms.”

Both sides have evil intentions and want to see who takes advantage of whom.

There's no way Rhaenyra would let Francis marry Lannal! And bring back a few dragons along the way!

The people of Braavos are so humble, who knows?

Moreover, finance cannot be given the opportunity to be manipulated by the Iron Bank.

In later generations, Targaryen married Rogar, one of the six nobles of Lys, and the "Lys Spring" occurred, but Braavos sent the Faceless Men... Westeros's financial industry collapsed after Rogar's collapse.

The Bank of Oldtown appeared, and Hightower quietly made a fortune.

——

On the sea, Daemon is sailing with the Western Fleet. They will soon reach Tyrosh.

The proud red and black dragon flag hung above the fleet. Daemon wore a thick armor with a personal crest. This was his favorite piece of armor. It was once sent by the craftsmen of Pentos sent by his father.

Made for him.

As for Daemon's personal crest, it is also a red dragon on a black background. Unlike Rhaenyra, his parents are both Targaryens.

Rhaenyra's personal sigil is a two-part sigil, two parts are the black and red dragon of House Targaryen, and the other part is the blue and white moon falcon of her mother Emma Arryn.

Daemon's face was filled with a smile, and the bloodworms were hovering around the fleet with unabated majesty, which was in contrast to the lifeless atmosphere of the fleet.

The Western Fleet suffered heavy losses!

The ship was seriously damaged, and everyone was injured. The fleet that once had enough manpower was severely depleted. People looked at the giant dragon in the sky with numb eyes.

In the early days, there were back and forth battles with the Lysians, but later the battle suffered serious losses, and the Lannister generals wanted to retreat to preserve their strength.

Damon doesn't allow it!

"Prince, if all the Western Fleet is destroyed, how can the Iron Throne explain to Lannister?"

The personal guards around him vowed to protect Damon's safety to the death, and Lannister cried blood.

"Don't retreat and fight again!"

However, Daemon's heart was as cold as stone, and the threatening roar of the bloodworms forced them to resist the continuous attacks of Lys reinforcements.

In the end, the Lysians could no longer bear the horrific fighting situation and retreated first.

The Western Fleet won, but they couldn't be happy at all.
