Chapter 248

Seeing that everyone was depressed, the old doctor immediately cheered up: "We are not envious, and we don't need to be jealous. The people of Westeros are constantly striving for self-improvement!"

"But if she can defeat the allied forces, unify the continent of Essos, and establish a Targaryen Empire similar to ancient Valyria, why should we reject that great emperor?

To put it bluntly, according to her current achievements, let alone Tommen and Cersei, she is not as good as Aegon the Conqueror, right? "

The person who said this was an olive-skinned, black-haired man, wearing a fleece-trimmed coat, with three poisonous scorpions embroidered with black silk thread on his chest.

Laughing Baylor glanced at the wooden-faced Garland next to him, and scolded, "Sir Yaron Kogel, what nonsense are you talking about?"

"Nonsense?" Sir Kogel smiled contemptuously. "I'm telling the truth! The Dornishmen never hide their hostility towards Lannister, but someone has to sit on the Iron Throne. A child king is much stronger."

"Sandstone City is located in the great desert in central Dorne, so how do you know about that woman?" Dr. Perestan asked with a worried expression.

"Sunspear is a trading port that is not weaker than Oldtown. Everyone is not stupid. More than one sailor talked about Targaryen and dragons. How could we ignore it? Our king was named Targaryen 16 years ago!"

"It's common sense that she can't defeat the Allies. One person can't fight the whole world." Dr. Perestan said affirmatively.

"Doctor, if she fails, she will have to give up the great cause of liberating the slaves and go home to inherit the Iron Throne!" Dany said strangely.

"Uh, what, how do you say this?" The old doctor asked in surprise.

"She has dragons, four dragons. Even if the Allies take Slaver's Bay, can they prevent her from escaping on a giant dragon? But the whole world is against her, where can she escape?

Only home, Westeros!

Even the Allied Forces will support her return to Westeros. After all, she has dragons, prestige, and a chance to turn the tables. If the Mother of Dragons honestly returns to King's Landing to compete for the Iron Throne, the slave merchants will welcome her with raised hands. "

"This, this, what should I do?" Dany's analysis was reasonable, and the old doctor was very anxious.

If you win the battle, you will lead an army of millions to return to your hometown in riches and clothes, and travel every day in splendid clothes; if you lose the battle, you will ride a dragon back home and surrender to the Iron Throne.

Can we people of the Seven Kingdoms not get rid of her shadow?

A gleam flashed in Dani's eyes, and she said sadly: "You can invite the Faceless."

The deep voice silenced the scene for a moment, and the orange-red light from the torches fell on the faces of the people, printing various strange expressions. Their eyes flickered and they looked at each other quietly, but they didn't say a word.

"Cough cough," Baylor coughed a few times, and changed the topic with a faint smile, "Tonight is a celebration banquet for the tournament, so don't talk about irrelevant topics."

"Clown, come and tell us a joke."

The musicians played music, the guests cheered, and the venue became glamorous again, as if the previous discussion had never happened.

In the morning of the next day, although the camp of the tournament was not dismantled, almost all the participating nobles were ready to leave. Baelor also returned to the city to continue supervising the construction of warships, while Garth Hightower stayed there to recruit freeriders.

The news that the female knight "Leyla" had won the tournament spread wildly in the city. When Dany led the horse back to the quill and wine bottle, she heard a handsome blonde singer sitting in the lobby of the hotel, playing the harp He sang the story of "the first female knight in the ages" with a melodious voice, and a group of apprentices and businessmen surrounded him, listening with gusto.

Dani also saw a few acquaintances, the black girl Laresa disguised as a man, and her friends, the lame Morand, the stupid chubby Rooney and others.

But no Pate.

What made Dany frown was that the girlfriend of the scumbag apprentice, the flower of the waitress—Roxie, was being held in the arms of a handsome blond boy.

Although he was wearing satin clothes with green and gold stripes instead of the gray robe of the maester, the four metal links on the silk rope around his neck still showed his identity as a maester apprentice.

An apprentice from a wealthy family.

Could it be that Pate was pried into a corner?

Not quite, Roxie looked sad, her eyes were red, she seemed to have cried, obviously she was not willing to accept the established fate - like her mother, to become a tavern waitress.

"Ahh, Rila Knight!"

When she was wondering, a waitress saw Dani and opened her mouth to yell.

At this moment, everyone in the hall looked over, even the singer stopped singing, and ran to Dany a few steps with the harp in his arms, and said affectionately: "Oh, Lord Knight, let me be your personal servant, I I want to write a legend for you, and let your deeds be known by countless people."

In Slaver's Bay, there were too many little white-faced bards who 'recommended themselves as a pillow mat' to Her Lady Queen, and Dany refused too many times.

She skillfully threw a golden dragon over and said with a faint smile, "Your songs satisfy me, but I don't need an accompanying singer."

Then, under the escort of the white knight, she passed the group of "groupies" who were asking questions, and went straight back to the backyard.

He didn't stay in the hotel for too long, washed and dressed, changed into clean underwear, still wearing armor, left the tavern from the backyard, and walked along the stone arch bridge to the famous school city.

Theoretically, the core area of ​​the school city does not accept women, nor does it recruit female apprentices, but the purpose of establishing the rules is to wait for the privileged class to break them.

Daughters of the Hightower family, female family members of the duke's family of the Seven Kingdoms, and princesses of the royal family can all enter the school city and be grandly received by the doctor.

Dany is now known as "Wei Shui", so her status is naturally not qualified, but she was invited by Dr. Perestan last night to go to the Academy City to discuss the trade deficit with economists.

Uh, the old doctor was frightened by the horrific fact that the Seven Kingdoms lost more than 14 million golden dragons in 1000 years, so he ran outside her tent this morning to remind her not to miss the appointment.

Through this period of observation, Danni found that, apart from the inexplicable hostility towards herself, the performance of Xuecheng was still qualified.

They basically performed their duties, and whenever they found problems, they tried their best to find ways to solve them.Whether it can be solved is another matter, but the positive attitude is worthy of praise.

Xuecheng is on the edge of the Mijiu River, only a stone arch bridge away from the feather pen wine bottle, and it takes less than 10 minutes to reach the gate.

Somewhat similar to a modern university, the rock-repaired gate is wide enough for three carriages to pass in parallel. There is a tall green Sphinx statue on each side of the gate, with a lion body, eagle wings, and snake tail. One of them has a man's face. The other is a woman's face.

This kind of Sphinx stone statue is also called Valyrian Sphinx. Whether it is the stone carving itself or the custom of placing the Sphinx statue at the door, it all originated from ancient Valyria.

There is a clerk's desk on the left side of the stone path behind the door, and there are five or six gray-robed clerks sitting behind it. They have chain links, but they are not enough to be combined into a necklace, and they belong to assistant bachelors.

More than a dozen people from the old town gathered there. Some asked Wen to write letters, some old people clamored to write a suicide note, some held letter paper in their hands and asked assistant bachelors to help them read letters, and some were just full of food and watched the excitement there. .

On the right side of the stone road, there is a row of bookstalls on the ground, a bit like seniors and seniors selling old books, CDs, magazines, tennis rackets, and basketballs near the bbs bulletin board before leaving school

Dani deliberately went over to take a look. They were all old books, story books, history books, biographies, and travel notes.

She knelt down and looked through the books. Ninety percent of the books were written by scholars of the Academy, and books related to Targaryen accounted for seventy percent of the total. Renice's Lover

Dani curiously opened "Renis's Lover" and read it, but she was so shocked that she almost broke her three views.

Aegon the Conqueror has two wives, sister Visenya and younger sister Renis, Visenya is the original wife, and Renis is true love (probably).

The book says that for every night Aegon spends with Visenya, he spends ten nights with Rhaenys as compensation.However, there are many handsome men around Rhaenis, whenever Aegon and Visenya are together, Rhaenis will enjoy these beds - with a lover

"Seven gods, this kind of book hasn't been banned?" Dany asked the old apprentice selling books.

Well, the book is very old, the once snow-white parchment has turned light yellow, the binding line on the side is even a few short, and some pages are missing.

The book is by no means new, and the Targaryen have only been dead for 16 years.

The gray-robed old man who sells books is very old, with a beard and gray hair, and wearing silver-rimmed glasses, but there is still a rope around his neck, and four or five chain links are strung on the rope.

An old apprentice.

"Why should it be banned?" the old man wondered.

"There's a lot of boat scenes with Queen Reynes and her lover."

"But it's all true. The person involved dictated it. How can there be anything wrong? Moreover, Aegon acquiesced in his sister's act of raising a lover. At that time, the nobles in King's Landing knew about it, and even led a wave of raising singers and poets among noble widows. A lover's custom." The old apprentice looked calm and indifferent.

Dany put the book away with a sullen face, and bought a hand-painted map of the school city with two copper coins.

The school city was built along the Mijiu River, and it has been continuously expanded for thousands of years. The internal buildings are extremely complicated, and some towers are still built on small islands on the river beach. If there is no map, the tourists who just came here will probably get lost.

Moreover, the Academy City is a university city, not a single place where bachelors gather, and churches and church schools are also mixed in it.

Although the school city does not recruit female apprentices, it does not cut off the way for women to study. Mission schools are specially prepared for nuns.

However, there is almost no academic research in mission schools. It mainly trains nuns who can read and write for wealthy families.

Along the winding riverside road, Dany also saw stone carvings of several Targaryen kings, all of whom were famous kings, Aegon I the Conqueror, Jaehaerys I the Cenrui King, Day the Little Dragon King Daeron I, "The Wise King" Daeron II.

Well, there is also "Mad King" Iris who was smashed half of his body.

Iris is not a pure fool. His life trajectory is a bit like that of Li Longji, who rises first and then falls.

In the first half of his life, he was quick-thinking and full of charm. Together with Tywin, he worked hard to reform the country's bad governance.

At that time, the country of Westeros was prosperous and prosperous, and it was almost a different world version of the "Golden Age of Kaiyuan".

At that time, Xuecheng really set up a stone sculpture for him. Who would have thought that he would change so much later on?

Dany and Barristan came to the door of the Steward's Cabinet, just in time to see a middle-aged apprentice in his 40s crying and being dragged out of the gate by two assistant bachelors.

Barristan grabbed a tall, lanky maester who was passing by, and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Zion steals Dr. Verin's waffles."
