Chereads / Game of Thrones: The Drogon Voice / Chapter 34 - Chapter 34: Surprise

Chapter 34 - Chapter 34: Surprise

He still clearly remembered Drogon's eyes, as if they could see through him. He had never had such a feeling before, not even when he made mistakes did his father look at him.

It wasn't just the look of the eyes that oppressed him. In front of the little dragon, he also felt like he was facing a giant dragon and felt very small. But how could this be possible? He was so small.

"Bran, why did that little dragon want to kill you?" Seeing Drogon fly away completely, Jojen also relaxed.

"I don't know either, but I'm sure he really wanted to kill me just now. I don't know why he suddenly changed his mind."

Bran still felt frightened when he recalled what he had just felt.

"If he wants to kill us, we won't have a chance to resist, including those two direwolves." The wild woman Osha said affirmatively, looking at the direction where Drogon flew away.

Seeing Drogon flying into the sky, no one objected at all.

"Is that barbecue left for us?" Rickon asked excitedly as he saw the tense conversation end and stared at the venison on the grill in the distance.

Seeing Bran nod, Rickon couldn't wait to run over and tear off two pieces, handing one to Bran and putting the other in his mouth.

When they put the meat in their mouths, they didn't expect that the cooking skills of a little dragon could be so good. It was even more delicious than the barbecue they had eaten in Winterfell.

Although the female savage Osha was not greedy, she would definitely not miss the barbecue roasted by a dragon, so she went forward and tore off a piece and started chewing.

Not long after Drogon left the North, a group of wildlings arrived outside the Wall. Among them was a delicate-looking brown-haired female wildling. Jon, who had taken off his black clothes as a Night's Watchman, was among them.

They were led by a man with a golden beard, wearing thick leather clothes and ropes around their waists, and were preparing to climb the Great Wall.

...

In King's Landing, in the slum area of ​​Flea Bottom, at the end of a dirty and messy street, a burly man with disheveled hair limped in.

Through the gaps in his stuck-together hair, you could see a scar on his forehead, running across his brow.

Wading through the sewage, he seemed a little tired. He leaned against the low wall to look at his lame leg, then looked back and forth as if nothing had happened. With one hand, he carefully removed the loose red bricks on the wall, took out a roll of parchment, put it into his sleeve, and stuffed the red bricks back.

When he felt he had rested enough, he limped out of the alley.

It was Varys who disguised himself as a lame strong man. After taking out the letter, he changed his clothes again and returned home. When he opened the letter, he did not see the content about the great changes in King's Landing that Drogon mentioned, but he was still surprised.

The most incredible thing is the Red Wedding that Walder is about to launch. Although the letter was written by a mysterious man, Varys still couldn't believe its authenticity.

Are the Freys crazy? They dared to openly trample on the guests' rights that Westeros has maintained for tens of thousands of years and openly murdered the nobles of the North and the Riverlands at the wedding banquet.

The Twins are sandwiched between the North and the Riverlands. Although the Frey family is not weak, they are still far from being able to fight against the nobles of both places at the same time in the future.

Varys knew very well the history of the Frey family's rise to wealth, which was based on collecting tolls. Their behavior was looked down upon by many nobles. Although they were wealthy, they had always found it difficult to enter the circle of nobles, which had become the goal of several generations of Frey family heads.

Walder had always wanted to marry into the Tully family of Riverrun, but was rejected by Catelyn's father, Lord Tully, on the grounds that he had no intention of arranging a marriage for Edmure. As a result, Edmure did not get married until he was twenty-five years old.

After finally finding an opportunity to marry the Young Wolf, Robb, he broke the engagement and married another woman. This was hard to accept for Walder, who was very proud of himself. Coupled with the benefits promised by Tywin, it was very likely that they would take the risk.

Then the mysterious man only told Varys about Walder's plan, but didn't tell him how to do it. Was he going to send the letter to Robb himself? Varys guessed Drogon's intention.

Varys was unable to save Eddard due to Joffrey's dictatorship, and now that he has the chance to save his wife and son, he is certainly happy to do it.

The second thing in the letter concerns Tyrion's prostitute lover Shae.

Ever since Tyrion and Sansa got engaged, Varys has wanted to send Shae to Pentos. With Cersei and Tywin around, she would likely be killed if exposed, and her exposure would also affect Tyrion.

Although Tyrion did not serve as Hand of the King for long, Varys saw his talent and believed that the people of the Seven Kingdoms needed such a Prime Minister.

These two days he was preparing to give Shae some gold coins and diamonds so that she could live like a lady in Pentos, but he didn't expect the mysterious man to advise him not to send Shae away from King's Landing, and even said that she might betray him.

Varys believed that given the extent of Shae's love for Tyrion, even if Tyrion was engaged to Sansa and neglected Shae, Shae would not betray Tyrion.

Understanding people's hearts is what Littlefinger Petyr is best at, especially when it comes to women in love, but it is not Varys' strong point.

Varys suddenly realized that he just wanted to send Shae away quietly and had no intention of telling Tyrion about it, but Shae would definitely think that Tyrion had instructed him to do so.

She was originally a maid serving Tyrion's fiancée Sansa, and she felt quite aggrieved. If she knew that Tyrion was going to drive her away, would she betray Tyrion out of hatred?

It was very likely that this would happen. Varys thought about it for a long time before he figured it out. He felt that this was more difficult than training his little bird.

Although he understood that Shae might betray Tyrion, what serious consequences could a prostitute's betrayal have? Varys didn't quite understand this, but it didn't stop him from canceling his plan to send Shae away.

The third matter concerns Oberyn, Prince of Dorne. Oberyn has always been brooding over the death of his sister Elia. Not only does he want to kill the Mountain, who murdered his sister and threw his sister's child to death, he also indirectly hates Tywin, who gave orders to the Mountain.

It is very likely that he will cause trouble for the Mountain when he comes to King's Landing this time. Varys doesn't know why the mysterious man cares about Oberyn's life and death. Does he want to rely on him to win over Dorne?

Varys guessed the meaning of the letter "Don't get too close to the Mountain, or you'll be careless and die." Could it be that Oberyn was not allowed to cause trouble for the Mountain?

Before he figured it out, he planned to send more little birds to keep an eye on Oberyn's news.

The letter did not mention the big changes in King's Landing that Varys had been thinking about, which made him very anxious. He also mobilized the little birds to conduct various investigations, but did not find any clues that could be called big changes. He couldn't help but wonder if the mysterious man's plan was wrong.

He didn't believe that as the chief of intelligence, he would not be able to find anything when he knew that there might be a major change.

...

A luxurious residence, outside the door walked a big-headed middle-aged man who was only about 1.2 meters tall, with a messy beard and fluffy blond hair. There was a deep scar extending from the left forehead to the right chin, almost cutting the entire face in half.

Behind him followed a warrior with slicked-back hair, a thin build and a long sword slung across his shoulder.
