Chapter 213 I am also a half idealist
night.
After Daenerys put Alexander and Elizabeth to sleep, she came to Jack's room.
After the beating he received during the day, Daenerys had to coax Alexander for a long time before he fell asleep.
Daenerys slipped out of her pajamas and slid into bed with Jack.
Feeling the smooth skin in his arms, Jack helped Daenerys to adjust her hand and said:
"I have something to tell you."
Daenerys kept drawing circles with her hands and looked up at Jack.
"What's going on? It's so serious?"
"Alexander can't be left alone like this. He is much smarter than his peers. Over-pampering will only harm him. I plan to take him to Westeros to study, and so will Elizabeth."
Daenerys asked curiously, "Why take him to Westeros? You can teach him here too.
And you don't have to go there yourself, Clark can fly across the strait in less than a day anyway."
"This kind of teaching is ultimately just talk. The situation in Westeros is complicated, so it will be convenient for me to teach him step by step how to be a benevolent emperor."
The situation in Essos is very simple, it is a city-state system, but it is different in Westeros.
The nine major families fought openly and secretly, and fought bloody battles for the Iron Throne.
Alexander was born on the prosperous Sea King Island and had never seen the outside world. If Jack passed the throne to him, he was really worried that he would say, "Why not eat meat?"
So there's no harm in seeing how cruel the world outside is.
"Well, it's up to you to decide. I support your choice. After all, your subordinates all say that you are the greatest king in the history of the world."
"Hahaha, I'm just standing on the shoulders of giants. I'm also half an idealist."
Jack is indeed a half-idealist. He wants to build a utopia where everyone is happy.
But at the same time he was well aware that this was impossible.
Because wherever there are people, there is struggle, and the only lesson that mankind learns from history is that mankind does not learn any lessons from history.
So Jack could only try to get off to the best possible start.
Daenerys chuckled and said, "You don't have to be so modest. I'll take Elizabeth with me to Westeros when the time comes." After that, Dany curled up in the quilt.
——————————
Westeros, King's Landing, the Red Keep.
The sun rises and a wisp of heat fills the air.
But this little bit of heat pales in comparison to the atmosphere of the Colosseum.
The reason is simple, today is the day of trial by combat.
Prince Oberyn of Dorne threatened to recover some interest for his sister first.
At this time, the nobles of King's Landing no longer cared about Tyrion's life or death. He was just a damn dwarf.
What they are more concerned about now is the love and hate between the Lannister family and the Martell family.
Elia died tragically at the hands of the Mountain, but they didn't believe that it was not without Tywin's instructions.
As for the Martell family, I don't believe it even more.
Especially last year, the Martell family and the emerging dragon-riding family Poseidon talked about something, and in the end they took Princess Myrcella away.
The relationship between the two families is now very tense, but no one dares to move rashly.
They really wanted to know if this would be the opportunity for the two families to completely fall out.
Isn't this melon much more delicious than Tyrion's?
Who cares if Joffrey dies? It won't matter who is king. They still need to rely on nobles like them to rule the country.
"You still have a chance to give up Tyrion, or the Mountain will chop off your head."
Oberyn looked at the arrogant Cersei and he didn't understand why Tywin had such a stupid daughter.
Although Jaime is not smart, he is definitely not as stupid as Cersei. As for Tyrion, he is much smarter than Cersei.
"Queen Cersei, I think you don't need to worry about this. The Mountain is like a stupid bear, and I am a poisonous snake. As long as I bite him, he will die."
Oberon is very confident that he is a master in the use of poison.
For this competition, he specially prepared a poison. Anyone who was stabbed by it would gradually lose consciousness and become paralyzed.
The reason why he didn't use the kind of poison that would kill the victim in a few seconds was that he wanted the Mountain to tell him personally who ordered him to kill Elia.
Oberyn was too lazy to waste time talking to Cersei, so he pushed Cersei aside and walked towards his own entrance.
Cersei looked at Oberyn's figure with resentment in her eyes. Anyone who stood in her way of seeking justice for her son must die!
When Oberyn arrives at the entrance, his mistress and Tyrion are there.
Oberyn poured himself a glass of wine and drank it all.
"Do you really want to fight that monster?" His mistress looked worried. The Mountain in the field was two meters and four meters tall, wearing armor, and was very intimidating.
"Just a scary big guy. Are you still not confident in my strength?" Oberon smiled confidently.
Oberon and his mistress kissed passionately, and she said worriedly, "Don't leave me alone."
"no way!"
At this time, Tyrion couldn't help but say: "I think you can drink less. The Mountain is the strongest knight in Westeros."
Watching Oberyn drink three glasses of wine, Tyrion became more nervous. After all, this was a battle that would determine his life or death.
"He won't be any more soon!"
After Oberon finished speaking, he walked quickly into the arena, waving a two-meter-long spear in his hand like a juggler.
Tyrion glanced at Tywin who was on the platform in the middle. At this moment, Tywin looked calm, as if he didn't care about the outcome of this trial by combat.
Taking a deep breath, Tyrion kept praying that Oberyn would win.
If Oberyn loses, Cersei will never let him go!
