Genius to remember the address of this site in one second: []https://The fastest update! No ads!

In view of the current tense situation within the Empire, members of the Imperial Council, the nobles of the Empire, and even a peddler in King's Landing all know that something big is about to happen.

The imperial throne has been in the air for more than ten years, and the princesses and princes have already grown up. It is natural that someone can't help but want to start.

And this person is the eldest prince of the empire, Helos Targaryen. He has been the prince for more than 20 years and he can no longer sit still. He has won the support of many nobles and wants to further become the emperor of the empire.

Nowadays, the army in the riverlands and valleys is being frequently mobilized, and there is a sign that it will threaten King's Landing, so now the capital of the empire is beginning to be alert and guard against any accidents.

The streets of King's Landing were patrolled by many soldiers, and the gates were closed as soon as the sun set at night, and reopened at dawn the next day.

A tall knight riding a black horse, surrounded by soldiers, came to inspect the King's Gate. He rolled over and dismounted. His gray hair fluttered slightly in the wind. .

From his face, he seems to be a decisive and ruthless person, but the most eye-catching thing is not his appearance, but his right hand. His right hand was cut off at the wrist, and now only one is installed. Prosthetic hand made of iron.

His name is Jacelyn Bywat, he was born in an earl family in the king's land, and he is also known as 'Iron Hand' Bywat. He is now the commander-in-chief of the capital defense team.

Jacelyn was originally a lowly descendant of the Bywater family, and later took part in the siege of Pike City in the quelling of the Balon Greyjoy Rebellion.

He lost his right hand in this battle, and after the war he was knighted by King Robert for his merits, and later became an officer of the City Guard and captain of the Sludge Gate.

And this role has been for decades. During the War of Conquest, the Targaryen army was peacefully surrendered, and the gates were changed seamlessly until many years ago, when the previous commander-in-chief of the capital garrison, 'Blackfish' Brynden Tullian died of illness.

He, who has always been conscientious, defended the safety of one side, and made great achievements in suppressing several King's Landing riots, was promoted to the commander-in-chief of the new capital garrison, becoming one of the most powerful people in the empire.

Although this 'Iron Hand' Earl Jacelyn Bywater was the captain of the Sludge Gate in the time of King Robert, he was different from the corruption and corruption of the golden robes of that period.

He is regarded as one of the few clear people. After all, he is a person who really relies on military merit to enter the capital defense team, rather than a person who is inserted through bribes, etc. Therefore, Jacelyn Bywater is a person who attaches great importance to honor and is very Brave, but sometimes a little rigid.

Seeing that the commander-in-chief was inspecting the King's Gate, the captain of the King's Gate, Penrose Bremont from the Bremont family, hurriedly greeted him.

"Sir, you are here."

"Ok."

And Jacelyn Bywater was wearing soft armor, a long sword and a black cloak around his waist. His gray hair fluttered in the wind while patrolling the King's Gate. He saw the King's Gate captain, Penrose Bremont, and nodded slightly. Say hello.

Once under the leadership of 'Heiyu' Brynden Tully, the appearance of the capital defense team was completely new, and even faintly had the demeanor of a strong general.

And when it was Jacelyn Bywater's turn, he was not as strong as Sir Blackfish, and his ability was slightly less, so some people began to put some of their cronies into the capital defense team.

He knew that the Penrose Bremont in front of him was one of Her Majesty's confidants.

Because the Bremont brothers and sisters once grew up in Prince Doran's Falling Water Garden, they are considered to be Queen Arianne's children and trustworthy people.

Therefore, Penrose Bremont was arranged by Arianne to guard the city gate at the king's gate. It should be noted that although the city gate officer is small, he is sometimes a person who can decide major events.

Since the order of the former Prime Minister Vilas Tyrell, the entire capital has entered a state of curfew.

Therefore, although Jacelyn Bywater the Iron Hand is in his fifties or sixties this year, he still insists on patrolling the city gates one by one before the city gates close at dusk every day.

He briefly exchanged a few words with Penrose Bremont, and then spoke to the soldiers under his command again, emphasizing the responsibility and discipline repeatedly.

After receiving the unanimous response from the soldiers, Jacelyn Bywater nodded with satisfaction, then rode on the warhorse surrounded by soldiers and went to the next city gate.

However, after his boss left, King's Gate captain Penrose Bremont held the hilt of the sword around his waist with one hand and looked at the back of Jacelyn Bywat, the Iron Hand, as he left.

Then he took a deep breath, and secretly said sorry in his heart.

Although the commander-in-chief treated him well, Penrose had higher pursuits.

Although he was a child of Queen Arianne and grew up together in the Palace of Flowing Water, Penrose Bremont is already in his forties this year. Because his daughter also has the right of inheritance in Dorne, the Bremont family's The city of Bremont was inherited by his sister Jonissa.

However, Penrose generously congratulated his sister for inheriting the family property on the surface, but secretly hated that this **** stole everything from him, married a little white face with no family, and gave birth to a cub named Bremont.

This is a little bastard!

She has tarnished the reputation and blood of the Bremont family!

However, although Penrose hated his sister very much in his heart~www.NovelMTL.com~, he had nothing to do with him.

After all, Jonissa has become the Countess of Bremont, and Her Majesty the Queen has a very good relationship with Jonissa. It is impossible for her to seek justice from Her Majesty the Queen.

Therefore, Penrose can only stay depressed in King's Landing and be the captain of his own King's Gate, watching high-ranking officials come and go every day. After all, if he left the family, if it wasn't for Her Majesty the Queen, he extended a helping hand in the past friendship and gave If he is a fat man, I am afraid that Penrose has a problem with eating now.

But this kind of life passed in a blink of an eye for several years, and Penrose felt that he had no hope of regaining Bremont City in his life.

However, at this moment, someone suddenly came to the door and told him that as long as he did what he said, he could become the Earl of Bremont City.

Moreover, this person has an extraordinary status and is fully capable of doing everything he promised, so Penrose Bremont agreed without hesitation.
