The little girl with silver-blond neck-length short hair saw Viserys and ran over and gave him a big hug.
Viserys also picked up his eldest daughter and spun her around in the sky until she giggled before letting her go.
The little boy with brown hair stood aside and watched silently. He looked at the almost identical hair color of his father and sister, and then glanced at the long, curly brown hair in front of his forehead, his expression slightly sad.
Although Horos is still young, as a prince of the Targaryen family and the eldest son of the emperor, he is naturally not a child from an ordinary peasant family. He must receive an excellent education from the royal family at a very young age and understand the meaning and struggle for power.
.
Then, it was only when Viserys put down his sister and turned his eyes to himself that Horos straightened his clothes and walked up, lowered his head slightly, saluted seriously and said.
"Father."
And Viserys looked at his eldest son, a boy who had a face very similar to his, but did not inherit the bloodline characteristics. When he saw Horos, it was like seeing himself back then.
The smile on Viserys's face faded slightly. Horos felt his heart tighten slightly when he saw his father's smile fade.
In fact, every child of this age will be frightened to the point of having his heart skip a beat when he sees the smile on his father's face disappear, and wonder if he has done something?
"What am I did wrong?"
However, before Heros could react, he saw a smile appear on his father's face again. Viserys reached out his hand and rubbed Heros' little head affectionately, and then hugged him to his side.
"Well, my little sun."
The name Viserys gave to Heros means "Sun God" because he had high expectations for his eldest son, hoping that he could become the hope and strength of many people.
The sun brings hope to people, and perhaps no moment will they feel it more deeply than now.
Therefore, it can be seen from this name that Viserys has high hopes for Horos and wants his eldest son to be his heir.
but
After not seeing each other for more than half a year, Viserys was slightly surprised by the changes in Horos, because before he left, Horos was a boy who loved reading but was taciturn. However, just now he saw a man who was skillfully giving gifts and seemed to be silent.
A boy who is close but maintains a distance in reality, and brings the rules of being a monarch and a minister to the family.
Viserys was amazed at the changes in Horos in just over half a year, but then he thought that Heros was only five or six years old now, which was the stage of shaping his outlook on life. He might have been influenced by some people around him, and then his smile faded slightly.
For a moment.
But he didn't expect that Heros was so smart at such a young age. Just by suppressing his smile, the boy noticed that he felt a little nervous inside.
However, Viserys responded quickly. He ruffled the boy's hair and made Horos relax from his nervousness. He breathed a sigh of relief.
After not seeing each other for more than half a year, even the relationship between father and son was still unfamiliar. Helos was a little nervous when he saw his father again.
"What about me?" Gu Xi
The silver-haired girl on the side suddenly pursed her lips when she heard her father call her brother 'little sun', and said dissatisfiedly. Then when she heard Viserys also call her 'little moon', she smiled again.
My father kissed me on his slightly stubbled cheek.
Having two children is a blessing in the world, and Viserys was very lucky to have received such two lovely elves.
However, when Viserys saw Arianne and learned about a series of recent events, his good mood disappeared.
"my sweetheart"
Arianne looked guilty, feeling that she had betrayed Viserys's trust.
Her husband handed over the entire country to her. Arianne was full of confidence at first, thinking that the methods of governing the country and the intrigues of men were nothing more than this. However, when Viserys really handed over the entire country to her, Arianne was confused.
I discovered that reality and imagination are two completely different things.
Arianne is somewhat similar in character to Cersei Lannister, the former queen of King Robert. Cersei is proud and willful, ambitious and thinks she is very talented in politics. She believes that due to gender limitations, she cannot exert her full potential.
ability.
Cersei admires and imitates her father Tywin's way of doing things. However, in fact, Cersei does not have the power and scheming of Duke Tywin. What she has is nothing more than self-righteous little schemes. She is more than ruthless in small things, but ruthless and vicious when dealing with big things.
Wisdom is not enough.
Arianne may not be as capable as Cersei, because although Arianne also acts decisively, she is not as vicious as Cersei. As for managing the country, Arianne is still better than Cersei.
Because Arianne at least will not confidently use micro-management skills in areas that she is not familiar with. She will also patiently listen to the opinions of others, even those she doesn’t like. As a dwarf and a little devil, Tyrion...
Lannister, and Willas Tyrell of House Rose.
Viserys' influence on her made her know that even an outstanding person like her husband would patiently consult experts in this field when faced with something she didn't understand.
Viserys once took Arianne to inspect the farmland around King's Landing, and her husband went to visit the fields in person. Naturally, it was not easy for Arianne to continue sitting in the carriage.
Then she saw Viserys carefully asking a gray-haired farmer for advice on how to grow wheat better, and the other party also answered with fear. This scene was very important to a Dorne princess who had lived in the Water Garden since she was a child.
Arianne, who enjoys all the glory and wealth, was very impressed.
"Old Lord Bracken and Ser William Darry"
Arianne was a little uneasy. She saw the sadness and anger on her husband's face.
"It's none of your business."
After Viserys was silent for a long time, he finally spoke slowly.
Putting herself in her shoes, Arianne's choice was not wrong. As the ruler of the empire, she must give priority to the safety of the capital. The importance of the capital is self-evident. After all, this is the land under their feet.
Chaos in other places can be suppressed, but chaos in the capital often means that a country's dominance is declining and its demise is not far away.
The death of old Earl Bracken was that he was indeed too old and could not withstand the torture of this cold night and fell ill and died.
The death of Ser William Darry made Viserys particularly angry.
