Chapter 730: The Three Daughter Kingdom Surrenders
"The civil war in the Third Daughter Kingdom is over."
Viserys looked at the information in his hand and then spoke.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty for harvesting another vast and fertile land, and for expanding the great cause of eastward expansion."
On the other side, Intelligence Minister Wallis spoke in a soft voice. Most of the masculinity comes from the eggs in the lower body. After Wallis was cut off, his speech would inevitably become feminine.
The civil war in the Kingdom of the Three Daughters ended. Due to the previous secret agreement, Viserys granted the Imperial Ministry of Internal Affairs the privilege to act according to the situation. Therefore, Ramsay asked Viserys for a pardon edict and three canonization edicts.
One of the pardons was for Humphrey Hightower. The edict contained the Targaryen family coat of arms stamped by Viserys himself. It pardoned Humphry Hightower and the former Old Town Hightower.
Er family, allowing them to return to the empire's system.
Two of the other three canonization edicts were reserved for Salladhor Saan, who claimed to be the Prince of Myr, and Trigg O'Moron, the former wealthy merchant governor who had just succeeded in a coup and seized power and proclaimed himself Prince of Lys.
They will be appointed by the empire, nominally as one of the vassals of the empire, and the two city-states of Lys and Myr will also be included in the empire's territory like Pentos and Andalos.
However, the difference is that although the Empire accepts their allegiance, it will not give them any actual support, and the Kingdom of the Three Daughters can still maintain greater independence, just like Dorne, maintaining a detached status.
The Third Daughter Kingdom area is regarded as a non-direct independent special zone in the empire's system. According to Wallis, there is no need to rush this matter. As long as the empire continues to remain strong, it will be a matter of time for them to be included in the system.
And in the trap set this time, the person who suffered the most was the Lord of Tyrosh.
He blocked the fate of the entire city-state for this battle, but he did not expect that the success would fall short due to the combination of spies from the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Tyrosh has also lost the ability and confidence to unify the Third Daughter Kingdom. If no accident occurs, it will be in a state of collapse within ten years.
The last canonization document Ramsay Bolton received was for the Lord Tyrosh, but the political situation in Tyrosh was slightly different from that of the other two city-states.
Both Myr and Lys implement a governor-general council system, and the governors come from local wealthy merchants or ancient families, but the king of Tyrosh is similar to the Sea King system in Braavos, and is elected.
Although Tyrosh's election is full of darkness and bribery, it is fundamentally different from the Governor's Council, and the public's reaction to it must be considered.
However, Ramsay claimed in the letter that he had the ability to make the Lord Tyrosh obey, so Viserys did not interfere too much.
The Kingdom of the Third Daughter was picked up for free without paying a big price. By instigating them to have a civil war and killing each other, he finally picked up three wealthy free trade cities. What kind of bicycles do you need?
What he cared more about was the monster mentioned in Asha's letter.
Asha and her fleet were on an envoy on behalf of the empire. Now that they were in Volantis, they were thousands of miles away from the mainland. Naturally, her letter to King's Landing would not be delivered in such a short time, but would be relayed by Bessie.
"I once saw this kind of monster in a book."
Varys and Viserys were talking while walking in the garden of the Red Keep, and Viserys said in a calm voice.
The book he was talking about was the original diary of Jillian Lannister, and what’s interesting is that the person who exposed Jillian’s true identity is now standing here.
It was Varys's little bird who exposed Maester Gunther's identity, and only then did Viserys discover that 'Maester Gunther' actually had another identity. The real maester sent by the city had already died.
Halfway.
After Jillian was poisoned with poisoned wine by Viserys and died, some relics left by him were found in his bedroom, including his diary, which recorded his escape from death while exploring the ruins of Valyria. It seems that
I was attacked by a half-human, half-fish monster.
However, Viserys never doubted whether the monster that attacked Asha was Jillian, because the story was too out of the ordinary.
In fact, shortly after Jillian's death, the grave was dug and the body disappeared. Viserys didn't take it too seriously. He was sure that Jillian must have died before the burial, but he didn't know who stole the body.
.
"It's really scary that there is such a monster in the world."
"I don't want to have my neck bitten off by a monster in my sleep."
The bald eunuch shrugged his shoulders slightly and said.
"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it. But now that the White Walkers have appeared, it's no surprise that there are so many monsters and ghosts in this world."
Varys was telling the truth, and the world was also becoming increasingly difficult for Viserys to understand.
He didn't know if it was because his existence interfered with the normal operation of the world that the White Walkers went south earlier and various monsters appeared frequently in the world.
According to the original time point, he is still dragging his sister to beg in Pentos, becoming a veritable 'Beggars King'. Jon Arryn has not been poisoned to death, and Eddard Stark has not gone south.
, all the stories have not yet begun.
But now, changes have taken place that make him feel unfamiliar. They are completely different from the world he thought it should be.
Originally, Viserys thought that the biggest boss in the world was the White Walkers, but now the mysterious Sea of Smoke has begun to riot, and there are a large number of monsters hidden in the ruins of Valyria. The more he learns about it, the more he feels that there is no cure.
If they all start to come out of the ruins in the future, the consequences may be disastrous.
And according to Asha's description, this half-human, half-fish monster really has the shadow of the monsters in the Valyrian ruins. They are all as if possessed, crazy, bloodthirsty, and their physical fitness has also been improved.
A substantial improvement.
Could it be that the various monsters in the Valyrian ruins began to flee with the riots in the Sea of Smoke?
Recently, there seems to be news claiming that a ship has disappeared near the Sea of Smoke, and the Sea of Smoke is still expanding at a slow rate.
Viserys felt a little headache. The White Walker issue on this side has not been resolved yet, like a sharp sword hanging above his head. On the other hand, if there is another problem with the Valyrian ruins, then he really has nothing to do.
, can't take it into consideration.
Because Viserys once personally entered the ruins of Valyria and escaped from it, he knew that the lost continent also contained a huge crisis that could destroy the entire world, which was no worse than the White Walkers, and even worse.
powerful.
"I hope nothing will happen."
The silver-haired young man frowned slightly and said silently in his heart.
