Chapter 656 Request for Instructions

The pirate governor Salladhor Saan hopes to get the support of the Iron Throne. However, Asha cannot decide this issue by herself. She needs to ask Viserys for instructions.

Fortunately, the fleet is not too far away from King's Landing now, just separated by a narrow sea.

If the fleet goes to further places, such as Volantis, the Land of Long Summer, Mataris along the Devil's Road, Slaver's Bay, etc., then everything will need to be done independently by Asha.

It’s up to you.

Moreover, having reached the end of the world, the Iron Throne's influence over there will be reduced to its weakest, unlike the trading city-states, which are intimidated by the huge empire around them.

The great masters and good masters of Slaver's Bay may not sell the face of the empire thousands of miles away, because they know that even if they offend the other party, the empire will not send a powerful army to travel thousands of miles to expedition to Slaver's Bay. The cost of doing so is as high as

The benefits gained are not proportional.

If the Iron Throne really launches such a war crazily, the huge consumption and cost may be enough to bring down the entire country.

After being silent, Asha expressed the need to ask the Iron Throne for instructions, and the pirate governor Salladhor Saan also expressed his understanding. After all, this matter was of great importance, and naturally it was not something that a 'messenger' could agree to.

Then the pirate governor quietly left Governor Morse's mansion, as if he had never appeared.

Asha sat on the bed and pondered for a while, then called someone and asked them to drag away the Ironborn brother at the door and wake him up.

He was indeed knocked unconscious by Salladhor Saan suddenly jumping from the roof, but it was not a big deal. However, the ironborn who followed Asha into Myr City were shocked and angry.

"Who did this?"

They didn't expect that someone would approach their 'princess' quietly. Fortunately, Asha was okay.

These ironborn who were once loyal to Asha's father, King Balon Greyjoy, still regard Asha as their princess and Theon as their prince.

Because before the Iron Islands were attacked by the White Walkers, Balon Greyjoy had once again worn the Driftwood Crown and proclaimed himself king in the Iron Islands.

But it is a pity that before King Balon could complete his mission, restore the "ancient road" and invade the green land, he was invaded by the White Walkers who came by boat and invaded the Kuroshio Island.

He once sent his third brother Victarion to Kuroshio Island to find out the truth, but Victarion never returned and his life or death was unknown.

Then the White Walkers invaded Pyke Island, and almost all the iron people were exterminated. Only a few iron people, led by Asha, fought their way out and escaped by boat.

However, in the face of the shocked and angry Ironborn, Asha seemed very calm. After thinking for a moment, she told all her trusted Ironborn to keep quiet about the matter and treat it as if nothing had happened.

Early the next morning, Asha Greyjoy went to the newly built Governor's Palace in Myr as usual.

It was built on the ruins of an old palace. The whole city alternates between old and new. It is very magical realism. The broken ruins and emerging buildings blend together. Standing on the street, you can take in these two scenes together.

She bought the most unique local 'Mir Eye' in the market of Mill, which is a single-lens telescope. This is a treasure that every navigator dreams of. The better the quality, the more precious it is. Asha

Nature is no exception.

What's more, her fleet will need to bypass the riot zone of the Sea of ​​Smoke in the Land of Long Summer and cross the deep sea of ​​the Midsummer Sea. Naturally, she needs a good tool to assist her.

Myr is rich in all kinds of lace, carvings, screens, paintings and carpets, which are exported to external city-states in large quantities. Even Myr's fine glass panes can be priced at the same price as spices from the east. These things were originally thought to be destroyed with the destruction of Myr.

Disappeared, but unexpectedly flourished again.

Asha formally visited the three Myr governors, left the governor's palace, and then came to the market.

At the same time, a fast horse carried her autograph letter and sent it to Pentos.

Pentos also has a prince's palace, which once belonged to the Tattered Prince.

However, the Tattered Prince intended to rebel and seek independence during the riots many years ago, but little did he know that he had already been targeted by the agents of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and was killed on the street as soon as he walked out of the gate of the prince's palace.

From then on, the Prince's Palace fell idle and eventually became the office of the Governor of Pentos, the 'Iron Mask' Bessie Joyce.

A few days later, Asha Greyjoy's secret message was sent to Pentos, and the envoy she sent entered the prince's palace under the guidance of the guards.

"Your Majesty, Commander-in-Chief."

The guards of the Prince's Palace are all professional soldiers from Qingyishui, personal guards of the Commander-in-Chief of the First Army. Bessie is a low-key person who usually stays in and out of town, so very few people can see him.

Tread...

The sound of footsteps echoed in the empty corridor. As soon as the messenger entered the gloomy hall, he saw the man sitting on the throne.

"call..."

He couldn't help but hold his breath, and then took a deep breath.

Because the opponent's aura was so strong that it made him a little timid.

The first thing he saw when he entered the hall was a cold iron face facing him.

The windows on both sides of the hall shone slanted sunlight, which shone on the ground and stone pillars. The tall man sitting on the throne wore a cold iron mask, and the eyes under the iron mask were blocked by the light.

It's not very realistic to see.

"What's the matter?"

The hall was empty except for the man wearing an iron mask sitting on the throne, and then a calm voice came from under the iron mask.

His voice did not become hoarse due to damage to his vocal cords due to inhaling too much smoke as rumored, but it was unexpectedly pleasant.

"grown ups."

This tough guy, who looked unruly and unruly with his chest and breasts exposed, unexpectedly became much more low-key when facing Bessie.

He bowed deeply, then took out the letter written by the Princess of the Iron Islands and handed it to the guard beside him, who handed it over to him.

However, when Asha Greyjoy's handwritten letter was handed over, Bessie read it all and placed the letter on the armrest again. There was no expression on the cold iron surface.

"Back off."

"grown ups?"

The iron type who sent the letter was a little confused, and he didn't know what was written in the letter.

But since this mysterious governor who didn't even show his face ordered them to retreat, the ironborn naturally didn't dare to stay. He could only bow and salute again and retreat.

On the other side, the commander-in-chief's personal guards heard Bessie's order and backed away without hesitation, then opened the door of the hall and walked out.
