As the leader of this rebellion, Quentin Martell, the old prince of Dorne, was escorted before the eyes of Horos.
Prince Quentin Martell of Dorne launched a rebellion with the intention of attacking his biological father, Prince Doran, and the Imperial Prince Hroth Targaryen.
However, Quentin's rebellion failed.
It turned out that his brother, Prince Tristan Martell, had betrayed him a long time ago and told Hroth all of his brother's plans, including the details of the rebellion.
Therefore, the rebellion in Sunspear was suppressed before dawn, and the first culprit was captured alive. Prince Doran and His Royal Highness were assassinated unscathed.
Prince Quentyn Martell of Dorne has undoubtedly committed a crime.
Assassinating his own father and the prince of the empire is not tolerated by emotion, reason, or even law.
However, Prince Doran personally interceded for his son, as well as Tristan, the Sand Snake sisters, and others, plus Quentin Martell was his uncle, so Hroth was given a lighter sentence.
But in fact, even if he is given a lighter sentence, Quentin still cannot escape prison. Since he launched this rebellion, Quentin's life is over, and Prince Doran cannot pardon his son.
Although he was only placed under house arrest in the dungeon of Sunspear, with good food and no abuse, it might be difficult for him to get out of here again in this life.
Because as part of the original betrayal and deal, Horos appointed his brother-in-law Prince Tristan Martell as the new heir of Dorne, and Tristan also had to swear allegiance to him.
In fact, those words from Horos rekindled Tristan's desire for power and position.
He knew that his nephew did not covet Dorne's power. In fact, he did not regard Dorne as his target. Horos's target was the entire empire.
So Tristan thought about it and finally betrayed his brother.
He revealed all of his brother's plans and told them completely to Heros.
At the same time, on the other side, Tristan arranged the assassination of his father, Prince Doran, in the name of Quentin.
Because Quentin seemed to notice something strange, or hesitant.
However, since he had betrayed his brother, Tristan, who had to do things to the extreme, gritted his teeth and added insult to injury, adding a few more charges to his brother's crimes.
This way he will never be able to turn over.
In fact, Tristan's bold bet did yield very considerable profits.
He directly gained the position of Dorne's heir that he had longed for, and Horos indeed had no desire for Dorne.
Tristan's guess was correct. Horos's goal was the Iron Throne from beginning to end, and Dorne was just a springboard for him.
As for what will happen to his uncle Quentin in the future, there is actually no need for Heros to worry about it.
Because the person who is most afraid of Quentin coming out must be Tristan, and even if Quentin can escape from the prison alive in the future, the first target will be Tristan who betrayed him, not Horos.
Horos took advantage of Tristan's ambition to instigate the brothers to turn against each other, achieving his goal of better controlling Dorne.
And this is enough, as for the process, he doesn't care and there is no need to care.
As for why he persuaded Prince Daolang to agree to his conditions in the first place?
It's actually very simple.
Hroth did not need to use any tactics to deal with a smart person like Prince Doran, but a simple and naked threat.
He threatened to set fire to Sunspear and Fallingwater if Prince Doran did not follow his plan.
The Fallingwater Gardens fostered the children of Dornish nobles from all over the world. Horos ordered Terex to burn the Falling Water Gardens, which was equivalent to cutting off the foundation of the Dornish nobles.
If they rebel and decide to go against the royal family, then today is different from the past, and Dorne will probably be in flames of war and all people will be devastated. This is what Prince Doran cares about most.
After all, Horos has lost the Iron Throne and suffered betrayal from his brothers and sisters. He has nothing to lose.
He was honest with Prince Doran, telling him what happened in King's Landing and the death of Prince Doran's brother, Prince Oberyn.
Prince Doran is also a smart man. He is seriously ill and dying. He is very sad about the death of his brother. However, he also knows that the threat of Hroth is not just talk, but can be done.
Therefore, Prince Doran agreed to Horos's conditions and announced that Dorne would surrender to Horos.
Horos used his own methods to do something that the ancestors of the Targaryen family had not been able to do for a century and a half, that is, to make Dorne completely surrender. This is indeed unexpected.
Dorne's rebellion was short-lived, and Heros used his own methods to integrate all the resources in the shortest possible time in order to make a comeback.
However, when his eyes turned to King's Landing again, the remaining forces he left in King's Landing also sent the latest information.
What happened in King's Landing made this heavy-minded and resourceful eldest prince somewhat unexpected.
Sister Diana unexpectedly took away the fruits of victory in the civil war and occupied King's Landing.
Heros originally thought that his younger brother Yin Meng would not give up easily no matter what, and would be willing to let his sister take away the fruits of victory. There would definitely be a fierce battle between Yin Meng and Diana.
And he stayed in Dorne with peace of mind, waiting for a winner between Yin Meng and Diana, and then found the right opportunity to re-intervene in the situation of the empire and take back what belonged to him.
However, when Horos finished taking care of Dorne's affairs, he raised his head and looked at King's Landing.
What he never expected was that the expected civil war did not break out.
Yin Meng was willing to admit defeat, and Diana did not become a queen or prince regent. According to rumors, she rejected the throne privately granted by her mother Arianne.
The two siblings, Diana and Yin Meng, are at peace as before. Queen Arianne has issued an edict asking the second prince Yin Meng Targaryen to capture his brother Horos and plead guilty.
Princess Diana Targaryen, the elder sister of Prince Yin Meng, also expressed her willingness to help Yin Meng at the court meeting in the throne room and jointly bring Horos back to King's Landing.
"Why is this happening?"
What happened in King's Landing was completely beyond Horos's expectations, and even caught him a little off guard.
He froze on the spot, his fingers trembling slightly.
However, just as Quentin did not expect Tristan's betrayal, Horos seemed to be shaken for the first time in his so-called "people's heart" that he had seen through.
He didn't understand his brother Yin Meng's resignation, and he also didn't understand his sister Diana's giving up the throne that was within her reach.
