Game of Thrones: Battle Royale Game

Chapter 399 The whereabouts of Wallis

"Your Majesty, Duke Mace Tyrell and his children are here to ask for an audience." After Ian completed the entrance ceremony to King's Landing, he just arrived at the study room prepared for him by Belicio and the others in the Red Castle when the captain of the guard, the water dancer Yada, came There was a knock on the door outside.

"I said that the Dukes of Westeros will all swear allegiance to me at the throne room dinner later and tell them that I am busy now." Ian's voice came from the room.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Yada took the order and left quickly.

"Okay, now let's continue discussing business." Ian Darry sat on the chair and looked at the staff in front of him.

"Yes, Your Majesty," Intelligence Officer Ransono Marl nodded quickly, "I was just reporting that there are ready-made mines on Dragonstone Island, and we have stockpiled enough dragon crystal weapons to arm tens of thousands of people."

"Expand the scale. Whether it is a mine or a weapons workshop, these are not enough. The investment in this problem does not count the human and financial costs." Ian said this to a Volantis man next to him. , he is the new Lord Chancellor of Westeros appointed by Iain.

For the sake of political compromise and balance, this position should accurately be said to be the vast majority of Ian's positions in the Royal Council of Westeros, which should have been filled by senior Westeros nobles, but Yi The absolute strength shown by En's army in Zhouyihe gave him a great degree of freedom when dealing with these problems.

Even though Ian's Westeros cabinet is now almost entirely composed of Gith and Volantis, except for Eddard Stark and Mace Tyrell, no nobleman dares to stand up and mention half of them. As for whether they would do something behind the scenes, Ian's order was very clear. Once found, they would be killed without mercy. In this way, he hoped that the nobles with evil intentions would do something small earlier.

"Yes, Your Majesty." The new finance minister nodded and accepted the order.

"The second thing." Ransono Marr continued immediately, "About the Count Varys whom Your Majesty ordered to find."

"Did you find him?" Ian immediately became interested.

"No, Your Majesty, but I carefully investigated what happened before he disappeared."

"Missing?"

"Yes, Count Varys did not say goodbye to anyone, nor did he say goodbye to the country at that time." Lannoso said, and immediately corrected, "The false king resigned, and just lost track of him, and never appeared again in King's Landing. "

"About when did it happen?"

"Well, it's been a long time. According to reliable information, on the third day after Lord Varys disappeared from King's Landing, the front line reported that Lord Stannis was assassinated by the Riverbend people and fought with Lord Renly. "The news of Stannis's death." After Lannoso reported the report, he explained, "Your Majesty, you should know that Count Varys has always been the intelligence chief of the puppet kings. He probably got the news of Stannis's death first and then left early. King's Landing. Or someone who got the news earlier than him murdered him at this time."

"When Stannis was assassinated?" Ian fell into deep thought. At that time, he had just defeated Khal Drogo and had not yet returned to Slaver's Bay to establish a regime in Meereen.

If Varys, who was far away in Westeros, chose to leave King's Landing at this time, the possibility of being influenced by himself was obviously very low. It was more probably due to the struggles of the players in Westeros at that time.

Even players who know the plot may inadvertently reveal some clues that make them wary in the presence of a keen person like Wallis. Of course, because Ian himself is not developing in Westeros, the details at that time are not easy to verify, and it is meaningless. Ian's only concern now is

"So Varys didn't come to see you afterward?" Ian asked Lannoso, who used to be the intelligence officer of the Golden Company.

With Governor Illyrio dead and Pentos destroyed, if Varys left King's Landing on his own initiative, he would most likely go to the disputed land to look for the Golden Company.

"No, Your Majesty." Lannoso shook his head.

"Is it possible that Varys found Jon Connington (Lord Griffin) and Harry Strickland (Leader of the Golden Company) alone and didn't tell you?"

"Absolutely impossible, Your Majesty, I am the intelligence officer of the Golden Regiment. They may hide it from those senior sergeants, but they cannot hide it from me."

"So. You don't have any other clues about Varys now?"

"There is nothing more for the time being, but I sent my best men to investigate this matter." Lannoso quickly assured, thinking that the emperor was dissatisfied with his abilities.

"No need," Ian interrupted with a chuckle, "He doesn't pose any threat to me now. I'm just looking for him..." Want to gossip and ask some secrets from back then?

After all, Ian is not the Three-Eyed Crow. It would be too troublesome to use the Red God's magic to explore the secrets of the past, and he still can't understand them. It would be much easier to catch Varys and question them.

"In short," Ian continued, "focus on monitoring the nobles. Just pay attention to Varys's matter. I will confirm with Clinton when I return to Volantis."

"As you command, Your Majesty." Lannoso lowered his head. In fact, he still had some guesses about Wallis's question that he had not mentioned.

For example, why did Varys flee King's Landing immediately after Stannis's death? What was he running from? What is he afraid of?

If I have to say it, the biggest thing that happened in King's Landing after Stannis's death was that Lord Lorraine led Stannis's remaining soldiers back to King's Landing, supported Princess Shireen to ascend the Iron Throne, and became the actual controller of King's Landing.

If the person Wallis wants to escape is the Count of Lorraine, is it because Wallis is eager to avoid him because he has discovered some secret of the other party? In other words, if Varys did not escape King's Landing but was killed by someone, what kind of means would the other party need to use assassination to deal with an intelligence chief?

The dragon crystal mines that Earl Lorraine had laid out in advance on Dragonstone Island, the people of the Bloody Flower Chamber of Commerce who had the means to assassinate Varys or make him fearful, and the emperor in front of him seemed to have something in common.

According to the information obtained by Lannoso, Varys had made great efforts to investigate the past of the Darry family and His Majesty's experience after the Pentos incident.

What exactly did Wallis find at that time? Lannoso did not find any relevant information, but he did not dare to check it again. It was just his intuition as an intelligence officer that made him feel that there was a big secret behind this.

‘His Majesty is our master, and we are his servants. Remembering this is more valuable than discovering ten thousand secrets. ’ Bellicio’s advice echoed in Lannoso’s mind, constantly suppressing his curiosity to find out.

Dangerous and pointless.

Ultimately, Lannoso came to the exact same conclusion as Bellicio.

Perhaps Varys also came to a similar conclusion. (End of chapter)
