Chapter 137 Illegitimate Child
"Hey, Tyrion!"
The little demon turned his head and saw the pale face of his old friend.
Cole? How could he look like this?
Tyrion had just returned from the Red Castle. He was on a mission to patrol the riverbank. It was a terrible scene. It would cost a lot of gold dragons to restore the port. Where could he find the money? Could he ask an alchemist to change it for him? Although the wildfires of those guys were meritorious, they could not turn into gold.
His father ignored his honeymoon period and gave him the cumbersome task. It was not that Lord Tywin valued this dwarf son, but that he had no one available.
His reliable and hardworking uncle Kevan had fallen ill.
Honeymoon, damn honeymoon, half of the people in the castle knew that Sansa was still a virgin.
People looked at him with mockery, although he had long been accustomed to that weird look.
"Are you going out?" They met in front of the castle gate, Cole with his two knight brothers.
"Let's go to King's Landing for a walk," Cole replied.
They exchanged a few words at the gate.
Cole rode his horse into the street and went down the road from Aegon's High Hill.
"Lord Cole, where are we going?" Duran had been to King's Landing several times and was much more familiar with it than Cole.
"Go to the city wall and take a look." Cole said to them.
Duran led the way, the roads were densely packed, and the houses were scattered all over the place.
They stepped into a small path, which was narrow enough for horses to pass, and the muddy road was filled with the smell of feces and urine.
The sword in his hand and the bright armor intimidated the pedestrians in front of the road. Duran introduced, "This is Flea Bottom. We can walk directly to the Steel Gate from the road."
Speaking of this name, Duran's eyes were a little disgusted. Flea Bottom, as a slum in King's Landing, was famous for its chaos and dirtiness.
There were drunkards and disheveled prostitutes everywhere. As expected, they all looked extremely dirty, with their clothes stained with filth.
Children stepped barefoot in the mud and feces, laughing even when they fell to the ground.
He saw someone drinking a bowl of soup, and suddenly saw that person chewing some strange meat.
After walking this road, it seemed that they came to a new place. Duran pointed to a bakery and said, "Sir, this is Bread Street."
As expected, the aroma of pies and bread could be smelled from afar.
Cats jumped on the eaves and walls, and pigeons flew everywhere.
Someone pushed a two-wheeled cart with jam biscuits piled on it. He seemed to deliberately stop in front of Cole for a moment and shouted loudly.
Finally, he seemed to be a little disappointed and pushed the cart away.
They walked to the city wall and walked along the wall.
Jose and Duran didn't know what their adults were doing, so they could only ride their horses and follow. They walked around the outer wall of King's Landing until it was dark.
Occasionally he would stop and look.
Several gates were tightly closed, and homeless refugees gathered outside the King's Gate and the Mud Gate.
They set up tents under the corners of the wall as shelters.
Outside the city wall was a chaotic scene, with newly repaired walls and ruined docks.
Cole's ship was docked at a small dock outside the King's Gate, and broken wood and sunken ships were floating on the river.
King's Landing is the second largest port in the Seven Kingdoms. Although there is no permanent fleet, trade has always been prosperous. I think Aegon the Conqueror chose this place to build his royal city and planned it carefully in his mind.
King's Landing is located on the Kingdom Road. Materials from all directions can be transported here through the King's Road. There is also a natural seaport, which can build a huge port to allow maritime trade to flow.
Unfortunately, such a castle is like the riverlands, with no natural defenses. Aegon the Conqueror was confident that dragons would allow his family to rule Westeros for generations.
Unfortunately, how could he have imagined that dragons would become extinct one day?
In just three hundred years, the rule of the Targaryen family came to an end, and even disappeared from the Seven Kingdoms.
Following the riverside road of the King's Gate, they soon came to another gate of King's Landing, the Riverside Gate, also known as the "Mud Gate", from which you can go back to the Red Castle by walking to Aegon's High Hill.
The Mud Gate was surrounded by beggars. When Cole came for the first time, these people attracted his attention. He didn't expect that as the capital, King's Landing would include so many poor people. From Flea Bottom to Mud Gate, the largest population base in King's Landing is actually this group of chaotic and hungry people.
Although he was no longer surprised by such a situation in this era, he couldn't help frowning for a while.
While Cole was inspecting King's Landing and looking for flaws, Tyrion was summoned by his father to the Prime Minister's Tower.
Seven oaths, seven challenges, seventy-seven dishes, seven singers. The king's wedding was much more grand than his dwarf uncle's.
Tyrion did not count how many dishes were at the wedding banquet, but it was definitely less than seven.
He persuaded his father to reduce the scale of Joffrey's wedding, but how could Lord Tywin be criticized? The Lannister family was known as the richest family in the Seven Kingdoms, and the wealth of the Tyrell family was second.
As for the money issue, Lord Tywin handed it over to him, because he is now the Minister of Finance of the Kingdom? Oh, gods, he can't shit gold.
"What's the matter with your marquis friend?" Lord Tywin asked him.
"What do you mean?"
"He was not a Valyrian last time." Lord Tywin said in a heavy tone.
"I thought you didn't care," said Tyrion. "You should know there are several Targaryens on the Wall, father."
Lord Tywin just looked at him with light blue eyes.
"Bloodraven and Aemon Targaryen. He looks like Bloodraven to me." He was very thin when we first met.
"Have you seen Bloodraven?" Lord Tywin asked.
"If he could survive until now, I would like to see him. Although I have not seen the Blood Raven, I have seen the Dark Sisters, that Valyrian steel sword." Tyrion said.
Tywin did remember Kevan telling him that the boy had a very sharp sword.
"He is a Targaryen, a bastard. His surname should be River or Water." Tyrion continued.
Dad, are you afraid of him? Tyrion thought silently in his heart.
Yes, with Cole's ability, he is likely to be the next Daemon Blackfire. As long as he makes his identity public, coupled with his silver hair and purple eyes, there will definitely be a large number of people following him.
"The problem right now is not about having an illegitimate child, but that you should quickly spread your seeds into a woman's body. If the prostitute doesn't teach you how to be a man, I'll let Yuetong teach you."
Moon Boy is King's Landing's royal clown.
A Targaryen bastard seemed insignificant in Lord Tywin's eyes.
After the Lannister army entered King's Landing, and after Robert hammered Rhaegar to death on the ruby shore, the world should know that Targaryens without dragons are no different from ordinary people.
