Game of Thrones: The Red Dragon Lord.

Chapter 71 The Long Family's Brothers and Sisters

Illyrio looked at the brother and sister in front of him. Both had silver hair and purple eyes. Both men and women were extraordinarily handsome, especially Daenerys next to them, who had breathtaking beauty and a graceful and upright figure.

Her skin was as delicate as white jade, emitting a soft luster, as if caressed by the moonlight. Her silver hair fell on her slender back like a waterfall, soft and shining. Her eyes were like deep amethyst, mysterious and charming, and her eyebrows were like a crescent moon, perfectly setting off the spirit in her eyes.

Illyrio was also somewhat moved, but he quickly suppressed his desire and said to Viserys: "Your Majesty Viserys, I am deeply saddened by the fact that a usurper has stolen and occupied your throne. Pentos has had frequent exchanges with the Targaryen family since the time of the Conqueror, and we have hosted countless members of the Targaryen family. You are the legitimate heir to the Iron Throne, and I would like to invite you to come with me to Pentos as a guest."

Viserys was agitated and confused. He asked, "Mr. Illyrio, are you not afraid of the usurper? Why do you want to help me?"

Illyrio flattered him: "Your Majesty, you are a true dragon and the only legitimate heir to the Iron Throne. Countless people in the Seven Kingdoms are looking forward to your return. Once you lead your army to Westeros, countless lords will respond to your call and fight against rebellion for you. Although I am a Pentos, I am willing to help you regain the throne."

Viserys was very excited after hearing this, and asked hurriedly: "How many troops can you provide me? When I regain the Iron Throne, you can choose any land in the Seven Kingdoms, and I will make you a prince."

Hearing Viserys' question, Illyrio felt a little overwhelmed for a moment. The plan was launched in a hurry and he had not yet reached an agreement with Khal Drogo. He had only just invited him, but he was confident in the plan.

Illyrio went on to say, "My Lord, I am sorry to disappoint you. I have only guards and sellswords. I am afraid I cannot provide you with an army. But I have money to support you. And I have already made a deal with Khal Drogo of the Dothraki. If you marry Princess Daenerys to him, he will give him forty thousand of his Dothraki cavalry to help you reclaim the Iron Throne."

Viserys was delighted when he heard this, and then he thought of last night's plan. At the moment, nothing could be more attractive than the dragon. It was rumored that the dragon was more than ten meters long and must be quite powerful. With a dragon, what was there to worry about without an army? Thinking of this, he said perfunctorily: "Mr. Illyrio, thank you for your kindness. Please allow me to consider this matter."

Illyrio was a little disappointed. He knew that he couldn't rush into this matter, so he adjusted his mindset and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, I look forward to your reply."

Daenerys listened to her brother talking to the strange governor, as if he was selling her back and forth like a commodity. She felt sad and scared, and when she thought of Viserys' plan last night, she felt even more frightened.

She remembered that they once lived in a house by the sea with a red gate. Her brother often told her stories, taught her Valyrian, and coaxed her to sleep. Their days were very happy.

Until William Darry died and they left the house, Viserys was constantly on the move, and there were fewer and fewer things in the house that could be sold. Viserys's temper became worse and worse, and he would beat and scold her at every turn, but she could only rely on her brother, and she was both afraid of and dependent on him in her heart.

She remembered the plan Viserys had told her last night: "Gawen Belleris has a dragon. Tomorrow's banquet is an opportunity. You must find a chance to get close to him. As long as you can make him fall in love with you, you can let us follow him. Once you are sure of the dragon's existence, kill him. I will seize the dragon and take back my throne."

She just said that she dared not kill anyone, and Viserys punched and kicked her. He stopped only when Viserys was tired. He said to Daenerys: "Bed is the most relaxing time for a person. Once he takes a fancy to you, you will have a chance." Suddenly, Viserys grabbed her arm and interrupted her thoughts: "Don't be in a daze. Now is a great opportunity. Let's go over."

Gavin, who had no results in talking to the Sea King, said a few simple perfunctory words, ended the conversation with the excuse that he wanted to taste the Braavos cuisine, and moved to the table full of food.

At this moment, Gavin saw two people with silver hair and purple eyes walking towards him, and he immediately guessed that these must be the Targaryen brother and sister.

After Viserys brought Daenerys to Gavin, he said arrogantly: "Hello, Ser Gavin, I am Viserys Targaryen III, the legitimate king of the Iron Throne, and this is my sister, Princess Daenerys Targaryen."

Upon hearing this introduction, Gavin secretly complained, does this mean that I still have to address you as Your Majesty?

Then, Gavin responded with a hint of sarcasm: "I have heard of you, the exiled Targaryen brothers and sisters."

Hearing what Gavin said, Viserys' face flushed red instantly, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I am the legitimate heir to the Seven Kingdoms. I heard that you have a fleet and a dragon. If you can help me regain the Iron Throne, I am willing to marry my sister to you, and you can choose any land in the Seven Kingdoms."

Gawain smiled and said, "I am grateful for your kindness, Viserys, but the price is too high. I cannot conquer Westeros with only a dragon and a fleet of ships. Even if I could, why would I not sit on the Iron Throne myself?"

Viserys was so embarrassed that he was speechless for a moment. At this time, Daenerys suddenly asked, "Sir Gavin, do you really have a dragon?"

Gavin explained softly, "It is indeed true. It is a dragon with golden scales. I named it Blazing Shadow."

Daenerys immediately said excitedly: "Can I see it?"

Viserys interrupted at this time: "Even if you successfully conquer Westeros, you can't sit on the Iron Throne. The people of the Seven Kingdoms only recognize Targaryens."

Gavin looked at Viserys without saying a word, then turned to Daenerys and said, "Okay, if you want to see it, I'll take you there later." Then he looked at Viserys and said, "Three hundred years ago, the people of the Seven Kingdoms did not recognize the Targaryens. Rule relies on strength, not simple recognition. If you expect me to help you regain the Iron Throne, I can't do it. But as a descendant of the Valyrian Dragon King family, if you need help, I can lend a hand, such as providing some money to improve your current situation."
