Game of Thrones: The Strongest Dragon Mother

Chapter 1082
"Your Majesty, the Arctic King must not be allowed to leave!" Margaret knelt on the ground, her pretty face full of eagerness and worry.

After Theon's nephew interceded for her for the third time, Queen Sansa finally gave her a chance to confess in person.

Sansa absently looked at the emerald gold ring on her hand, which was as big as a pigeon egg, and frowned and caressed the golden lace robe on her body. She always felt that this attire was not worthy of the crown of the most noble person on her head.

Perhaps, when she returns to King's Landing, she should invite famous tailors at home and abroad to tailor a set of Queen's robes for her?
At least it must have the majesty of both the gray-white direwolf and the three-headed red dragon.

Well, you can't have jewelry that is too heavy, the key is to match the light-colored platinum crown.

"Your Majesty?" Margaret didn't get a response for a long time, so she couldn't help reminding her in a low voice.

"Margaery, is this your sincerity? At this moment, you dare to provoke the relationship between our brothers and sisters." Sansa finally gave her a casual but mocking look.

"Your Majesty, please listen to me!" Margaret knelt hard and walked four or five steps forward.

"Letting Jon Stark stay in King's Landing is the best strategy; letting him go back to Winterfell is the worst strategy; appointing him as the Great Wall Supervisor is the worst worst strategy." She whispered.

Sansa narrowed her eyes slightly, and asked an irrelevant question, "Didn't you dance very happily before, why did you change your mind?"

Margaery smiled bitterly, her eyes never evasive, and she said frankly: "You use me as a pawn to lay out the river bend land, I am really not angry, why?

You let me learn from you, but you can't just let me learn your means of governing the country, right?

In fact, the biggest touch you gave me has nothing to do with political skills at all.

You were like a puppet in your early years, your destiny was manipulated by others at will, but now you have turned against the sky and truly controlled your present and future. This kind of control of destiny is what I want to learn most.

What's more, the core rule of the game of power is not to stand on the side of the loser.

Facts have proved that my judgment on the battle situation is not wrong, Duke Jon really defeated the White Ghost King.

But I never thought of him"

With a sigh, she said helplessly: "The overall situation is settled now, you are the ultimate winner, I am willing to abide by the rules of the game and surrender to the winner."

Sansa lazily fiddled with the ring finger on her ring finger without even looking at the other person, "You betrayed me once, why should I trust you again?"

"Your Majesty, before you were just unsure about the future Queen of Storms. After a while, the Stormlands were taken away by the Baratheon family.

Now you wear the crown of man, there are few people in the world who are convinced, but very few people can rebel. Margaery gave the queen a meaningful look.

Sansa also glanced at the past coldly when she heard the words, "Few are convinced?"

"Your Majesty, you went to Slaver's Bay a few years ago and met Maester Aemon, the old Targaryen birthday boy. Do you know that he has the nickname 'The Man Who Should Be King'?

His younger brother, Aegon V who founded the line of the Dragon Queen, what is his nickname? Have you heard of it? "

Sansa's lips were tightly pursed, her eyes were like a needle, and she wished she could sew Margaery's mouth shut with everyone else's.

In terms of royal taboos, the West is relatively more open than the East.

It's not that Western monarchs are more benevolent and generous, but that Western kings cannot be as arbitrary as Eastern emperors.

To put it bluntly, the king on the Iron Throne only has three thousand gold robes, and he can't even manage the city of King's Landing. How can he interfere with the speeches in other duchies?
So, while the king was still alive, the people of Westeros started giving them nicknames.

Almost every king has a nickname, for example, Aegon the Conqueror, Maegor the Cruel, Aegon the Unworthy, and Aerys the Mad King.

Even Robert, whom the Seven Kingdoms called Robert the Usurper.

And Aegon V has the title of "The King Who Shouldn't Be King".

Because when the Great Council elected the king, the nobles were going to choose old Aemon as king.

It's not that the nobles want to learn from Huo Guang and Dong Zhuo, they just want to choose a less crazy and older king.

A very simple wish.

Considering that Aemon's elder brother—"Bright Flame" Ailion drank wildfire to turn into a dragon, but turned into ashes, the royal family can also understand the choice of the nobles.

But Aemon didn't want to be king, so he gave up the throne to "Eggy" Egg.

You can let it go, but you can't stop others from gossiping behind their backs.

From the moment Aegon V became king, "the king who shouldn't be king" has been with him until his death, even written into the history books.

"What do they call me?" Sansa asked nervously.

Margaery shrank her neck, and dared not speak in a murmur.

"Say!" Sansa shouted.

"I've heard people say," Margaery declared beforehand, "that someone called you 'liar' Sansa."

Seeing that the queen's pink face was turning pale, Margaery hurriedly remedied: "They didn't see how hard you worked. They are all villains and jealous, so don't worry about it."

"Who said that?" Sansa's eyes were red.

"There are so many. I don't know where it first spread. Within a week, everyone was talking about it." Margaret said slowly.

Sansa gradually regained her composure, and said indifferently: "The three strategies you mentioned earlier are missing the best strategy."

Margaery was shaken, and said in a low voice: "China strategy, keep Jon in King's Landing, give him high officials and generous salary, even let him hold the same power as the king, satisfy him, and let others see how much you treat him. good.

You'll only lose part of your authority, and you'll live the rest of your life cautiously, leaving everyone out of reach. "

"Well," Sansa mused.

"Letting Jon return to Winterfell is the worst policy. This is obviously announcing to everyone that you are mean and ungrateful and afraid of the true king.

It's not that the king can't be mean and ungrateful, but letting Jon return to Winterfell will not only not hurt his popularity, but will make your reputation continue to decline.

Thinking of him watching the south in Winterfell, you can't live safely in King's Landing, right?
Arranging for Duke Jon to build the Great Wall is the worst choice.He was already known for his meritorious deeds, and even won the crown of others for his meritorious deeds.

And what a great achievement is building the Great Wall?
Today is different from the past, everyone understands the meaning of the Great Wall - to protect the world.

Why do you think Brandon the 'Builder' became a legendary hero? "

Sansa's complexion changed, and she asked, "What's the best strategy?"

Margaret took a few steps closer, lay down at the queen's feet, kissed her shoe upper, and said in a low voice, "Peel off Duke Jon's halo of honor, and let him leave King's Landing as a sinner."

Sansa's eyes flashed, and she whispered, "What do you want to do?"

"Your Majesty, he is still responsible for a murder case and owes everyone a big trial!" Margaery said in a dark voice, "Stannis!"

"As early as half a year ago, Gendry died in the dispute for the throne; Deminiah went out with the army and died in battle. It seems that there is no one in Baratheon." Sansa said calmly.

Margaery smiled and shook her head, "You are wrong, if the two of them were alive, Duke Jon would have easily passed the trial.

Why did Gendry die?
If I were a red monk, I wouldn't let a person who has a blood feud with the priest of the Red God survive, let alone make him king.

By the same token, Gendry hated the Red God and the Red God priests.

He would not be too concerned about avenging the Red God King's uncle.

Perhaps, he is more willing to forgive Duke Jon. "

"As for Daminia. You think, Stannis refuses to recognize the identity of Zhong'er. Their mother and daughter have noble blood, but they have lived in the lowest brothel for eight years.

If she was still alive, would she bite the savior to death for her uncle? "

"No! None of them will, but Onion Knight Davos and Selyse will!"

Sansa looked at the woman in front of her in amazement, for a long time, and sighed: "You see clearly."

Margaery smiled bitterly, "During the years that Cersei locked me in the Red Keep, I either went crazy, or tried hard to learn some skills that would allow me to survive, such as reading people's faces, judging the situation, and gaining insight into the world."

"Jon is my brother." Sansa hesitated.

In fact, before she finished speaking, she guessed the "best policy" the other party said, but Jon is her brother at least, she still thinks so now.

Margaery reminded in a low voice: "Do you still remember the process of beheading the White Ghost King a few days ago?"

"I will never forget it." Sansa frowned.

Margaery said slowly: "Your sister Arya assassinated her first, but the sneak attack failed. The first person who rushed to the rescue was Duke Jon, who stopped the giant White Walker who was about to kill Miss Arya.

Then, you and the Archbishop rushed over in the second wave, followed by me, the Hound, Bronze Yon, Jaime Lanlist and other Knights of the Seven Kingdoms who were also brave enough to die.

What happened after that? "

Seeing Sansa, Jon subconsciously pulled Arya back a few steps and let her carry the White Walker King. Of course she couldn't carry it. If King Aegon hadn't turned into a giant holy light shield in front of her in time, she would have Like her sister, she was beaten and swollen by the big fist of the rice cooker.

Oh no!

The holy light shield that King Aegon condensed with all the power of his soul shattered into spots of light on the spot. If she was hit head-on, it would probably be broken in two.

"You think Jon wants to kill me by the hands of the White Ghost King?" Sansa sneered with a smile.

Even if she almost died at that time, she didn't believe that Jon would murder herself.

"No one knows what he was thinking at the time." Margaret paused, and said softly, "Actually, I was the one who borrowed a knife to kill someone."

"What?" Sansa was stunned.

"Half a year ago, the news came that little Dani and Prince Rhaego had tied the knot. I couldn't sleep at night, so I went to the Arctic Palace that night."

"What are you doing there?"

Not only does Sansa know that she has seen Jon, but she also knows that she and Jon have had long conversations alone.

Her spies told her.

But Jon doesn't tell her about it later.

"I suggest to Duke Jon not to kill the White Walker King first, but to give you a chance to single out the White Walker King. Tell me, does he understand my dark thoughts? Or, pretend to be confused and push the boat along?"

"I don't believe it!" Sansa's face was tensed, and Margaery couldn't see her true thoughts.

Gritting her teeth, she confessed: "I also told him that the throne can only be grabbed, never given up."

"You—splashing people, you are so vicious!" After listening to Margaret's analysis of her mind and character, Sansa felt ashamed and angry, her right palm stood on her chest unconsciously, and the palm of the Virgin Mary was about to be activated.

Margaret also turned pale with fright when she saw God's hand gesture, "I'm confessing to you!"

"Maybe I should let you go." Sansa's eyes were cold.

Letting her go would be tantamount to rejecting her allegiance.
"Your Majesty, only a truly loyal minister will tell the unflattering truth!" Margaret wailed.

"Hmph, what else did you say?" Sansa said coldly.

Margaery didn't hide anything, and honestly told her own words and Jon's reaction.

"Your Majesty, before hearing these words, Jon will still be your good brother, but after hearing."

She said cautiously: "Looking at his performance when he killed the White Ghost King, it is obvious that he has listened to some of my words.

As I said earlier, when you wear the crown of man, although few are convinced, very few are able to rebel.

In fact, there is only one person who is qualified to take away your crown.

It's not the Dragon Queen, she has never recited an oath, let alone a sacred oath that is well known in the world.

Lord Jon."
