Chapter 214: Shocking News

Daenerys originally wanted to appoint Daario as Marquis and Lord of Yunkai in Slaver's Bay, but he was unwilling to return to Slaver's Bay, and was willing to be a Kingsguard, wearing a white robe and guarding Daenerys at all times.

His decision also shocked everyone, and Drogon had to admire Daario's reputation as a romantic man again.

After the division, the power of the seven kingdoms did not change much, and Daenerys asked Missandei to announce the members of the Royal Council.

The Queen's Hand Tyrion, the Captain of the Kingsguard Barristan, the Master of Intelligence Varys, the Lord Chancellor Grey Worm, the Lord Admiral Yara, the Lord Chancellor of the Exchequer Mace, the Grand Maester Marwyn, and the Advisor Missandei.

Hizdahr of Slaver's Bay resigned as Chancellor of Finance and became Deputy Chancellor of Finance, responsible only for the financial affairs of Slaver's Bay.

After Marwyn delivered the news of his appointment as Royal Master to the Citadel, he received a reply from the Citadel on the third day, and they had no choice but to agree to Daenerys' request.

After confirming the members of the King's Landing Council, Daenerys abolished the Gold Cloaks in King's Landing. Jorah was appointed commander of the King's Landing garrison and concurrently deputy law minister.

After announcing a series of decisions, Daenerys said to the audience: "I declare that in three days, troops will be dispatched to the nine free trade cities!"

After Daenerys finished speaking, all the nobles were shocked.

The news of Cersei's alliance with the nine free cities has long been known to everyone. Although they think Daenerys's counterattack is a bit sudden, it is not too unexpected.

But they didn't expect Daenerys to send troops so quickly. After all, Westeros was just beginning to settle, people's hearts were unstable, and the Seven Kingdoms all suffered damage, so they needed some time to recuperate.

The person who had just had this thought immediately dispelled his concerns for Daenerys when he saw Drogon returning to Daenerys' shoulder.

With Drogon the dragon god and two other dragons, who would dare to stir up trouble?

With their help, Daenerys could conquer the nine free trade cities, plus the Slaver's Bay under her rule, and the affiliated cities of New and Old Ghis.

And with the allegiance of the Dothraki in her title, the lands she rules will surpass the Freehold of Valyria, forming an empire more powerful than ever before.

More than half an hour later, the coronation ceremony was over and most people slowly dispersed, leaving only the lords and ministers of the seven kingdoms.

"I intend to expand the kingsroad at Highgarden's expense," Daenerys tells Olenna and her son, Mace, the new Lord Chancellor.

When Daenerys announced that Mace would be the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Olenna guessed Daenerys' intention. She didn't expect that she would expand the Kingsroad. With this major project, the wealth of the Highgarden Tyrell family would at least shrink by half.

Olenna didn't care too much about this. After all, Highgarden was saved. Besides, she would let her son make full use of the position of Chancellor of the Exchequer.

At that time, several family members will be arranged to assist Metz, which can not only cultivate financial talents, but also accumulate a certain amount of wealth to supplement the expansion of the King's Avenue.

The expansion of the King's Road was suggested by Drogon. As a modern human soul, he was well aware of the importance of transportation to national development.

Starting from Storm's End in the south and ending at the Wall in the north, the King's Road that runs through Westeros from north to south is called a road, but it is very narrow.

The widest part is enough for three carriages to pass side by side, and the narrowest part is enough for only one carriage to pass through. It can be said to be a small path.

Although drogon could fly and could not walk on the main road, he looked very uncomfortable.

The sewer system in King's Landing also needs to be renovated along with the King's Road. Daenerys plans to change the reputation of King's Landing as the city of shit and piss.

After explaining things to Olenna, Daenerys discussed with the lords of the seven kingdoms the issue of sending troops to the nine free trade cities.

The number of troops dispatched this time is not large, with a total of only 80,000. Each of the seven countries will send people, and the 80,000 people will be commanded by the Minister of the Navy Yara.

After arranging the details of the military expedition, each lord walked out of the throne room and made their own preparations.

Not long after returning to the room with Daenerys, Drogon left to find Bran. Since he already knew about it and Jon happened to be there, it was time to let them know some things.

He came to the door of Bran's room and knocked twice. Seeing that it was Drogon again, Bran couldn't help but flash a trace of fear in his eyes.

He was really frightened by Drogon's threats and the divine power he just displayed.

Looking at Bran who was extremely frightened, Drogon grinned and gave him a warm smile, thinking that he seemed to have been too harsh in the past.

He took the paper and pen, wrote it down, and handed it to Bran.

"I guess you already know Jon's identity. Tell them now! It's time for them to recognize each other."

Looking at the contents on the paper, Bran's eyes widened. "How...how do you know this?"

The only survivor of the Battle of the Tower of Joy is Meera's father, Howland Reed.

My father would rather bear the crime of infidelity than tell my mother about that secret, let alone anyone else.

Could it be that Drogon found Howland and learned the mystery of his life?

"I've never met Howland. Do you think he is so worthy of your father's trust that he would reveal this to others? Now take Jon to meet his aunt!" After writing these words, Drogon left Bran's room, leaving him there alone in a daze.

Looking at the contents on the paper, Bran has not yet recovered from the shock.

"He really knows everything!" This is the most real feeling that Drogon gives Bran.

From the first time he met Drogon, Bran felt that Drogon seemed to be able to see through him, and now he knows Jon's life experience that has long disappeared in the long river of history.

If Drogon had not been a black dragon and had become a dragon god, Bran would have even thought that he was a green prophet who was more skilled than himself.

Slowly recovering from the shock, Bran couldn't help but laugh at his own previous worries.

Drogon obviously did not take the threat of Jon's background to Daenerys' throne seriously, and would not kill himself and Jon for it.

He breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time, the feeling of frustration came over him again. He couldn't help but smile bitterly. He could only focus on planting more weirwoods.

Fili went to Jon's room and knocked on his door.

Jon was a little surprised to see that it was Bran. It had not been long since they separated in the throne room, and he didn't expect Bran to come to him again.

"Jon, I saw my aunt Lyanna when I was observing my father's battle at the Tower of Joy. Before she died, she entrusted a baby to my father." After entering the room, Bran tilted his head to glance at Jon and said slowly.

Jon, who had been smiling as he pushed Bran into the room, slowly saw the smile disappear when he heard this. He walked up to Bran with a frown, stared at him, waiting for the next words.

"You are not your father's bastard son, but your aunt Lyanna's son," Bran continued.

"Then why did father... say that I was..." Hearing this, Jon could no longer hold back and asked.

He even felt some resentment towards his deceased father Ed.

I am not his illegitimate child, so why did he tell the world that, causing him to carry a bad reputation since birth and be looked down upon everywhere.
