Game of Thrones: The Strongest Dragon Mother

Chapter 105 How can a good queen not keep a vicious dog? (Happy Year of the Rat, fellow book lovers!)

"Among the pyramids, you were the first to revolt?" Dany asked the honest man Kleon.

Kleon took out a piece of parchment from his waist, grinned flatteringly and said, "I picked this up."

"Are you literate?"

"The villain has been a slave since he was a child, illiterate, but a scholar can read, with a knife on his neck, he is willing to say and do anything."

As he spoke, he pointed to the group of slaves with big arms and round waists behind him, and said: "Through the window, I saw the army outside the city and your dragon, so I united with the kitchen staff to respond to the call of the mother of dragons, and killed pigs with kitchen knives." Knife hacked down the guards of Grazdan Good Lord's house."

Dany nodded and asked: "I will announce that all slaves are free, and I will reward those who have made great achievements in the uprising. Since you are the first to ask me for a reward, then you will be the first to reward you. Tell me about it." , what do you want? Don’t worry, now you are a free citizen and have the freedom to express your innermost thoughts.”

"Is it really possible?" Cleon asked eagerly, his eyes brightened.

"of course."

After pondering for a moment, the butcher said, "The next step for Her Majesty is to go north to liberate the cities of Kaiyuan and Meereen? Are you going to return to Westeros?"

"It's very likely."

The pork guy said with bright eyes: "I am willing to serve Queen Daenerys, just like the dukes of the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros, and shepherd for you."

In other words, you want Astapor?

This request seems outrageous, but it is actually more in line with the "national conditions" of this world, especially the customs of Westeros.

The royal territory directly ruled by the Targaryen family is the smallest in the Seven Kingdoms, and it is not as rich as the Reach, the Riverlands, and the Vale of Ayrin.

The seven dukes, including the Duke of Greyjoy of the Iron Islands, have extremely high autonomy in their respective territories.

For example, the duke often led the minor nobles in the territory to rebel against the king.

Under normal circumstances, minor nobles and common people in their territories are much more loyal to their own duke than to the king on the Iron Throne, unless the king has a fire-breathing dragon.

In this world where enfeoffment prevails, if Dany really leaves Astapor and the Slave Bay, there will probably be a few dukes or kings left in these slave city-states.

Therefore, even though White Beard and Jorah looked ugly, they didn't say anything to scold Cleon loudly.

"Kleon, you are very self-motivated, that's great." Dany encouraged him first, and then said: "But you should understand that under the Duke, there are Marquis, Earl, Sir (equivalent to Baron), Knights, freemen."

After a pause, after the butcher digested the hidden meaning in her words, Dany smiled and continued: "If you want to reach the top of the pyramid, you have to climb the steps step by step.

Of course, if you want to airborne directly to the top garden, you can. For example, I have a dragon, and riding a dragon can ignore all obstacles on the ground. "

Cleon's face was a bit ugly, he asked stiffly, "I can only become a knight?"

Whitebeard's complexion became even uglier, he snorted coldly, and advised Dany: "The knights of Westeros not only represent status, but also noble character. Your Royal Highness, you must be careful."

Cleon squinted at the old man from the corner of his eyes, unconsciously carrying a trace of murderous intent.

Not to mention the battle-tested Whitebeard and Jorah, even the novice Dany has noticed it.

This pork guy is a ruthless character!

"Kryon, don't blame Astan for being too upright. I can declare that, as the first slave in the pyramid uprising, you have noble morals, enough to become a knight.

But knights still need knight skills, the ability to wear iron armor and ride horses to fight, how about it? You have made great achievements in laying down the Great Pyramid. I will bestow you with the status of knight, which is half a rank higher than that of a knight. Are you willing to accept it? "

A smile appeared on Cleon's big stiff face, and he shouted, "Sir Cleon is willing."

From a certain point of view, Cleon also did Dany a big favor by taking the initiative to ask for the title.

That is to break the existing political structure of Astapor and establish a brand new "New Westeros" political structure with Queen Dany at the core.

To put it simply, Cleon unintentionally helped Dani complete a "reform" movement.

The reason for the "new" Westeros enfeoffment is obviously that someone must have mixed too much private goods from the Great Celestial Dynasty.

Afterwards, Dany took Cleon to the wooden platform in the center of the Punishment Square.

The corpses of the slaves hanging there are still not removed. Under the shining white sun, blowflies and fat white maggots are crawling among the carrion. The slaves who are not completely dead are still twitching unconsciously, and there are bursts of rotten smell with a sinful breath diffuse everywhere.

Enduring her nausea, Dany tried her best to put on a calm expression, and shouted to the slaves and servants gathered around the wooden platform: "Have you all seen it? This is a slave. I can't help myself. I can't control my fate. Without self-respect and the right to make progress, what we want to end is this kind of world that shouldn't exist in the world.

In this slave rebellion, the butcher Cleon was the first group of people to respond to my call. His heart still longing for freedom made him make a logical choice—abolition of slavery.

He set an example for slaves all over the world who are still shackled physically and mentally.

He not only liberated his own soul, but also liberated the Great Pyramid. Under his leadership, 2000 slaves overthrew the rule of the first slave owner family of Aposta.

For this reason, when he asked me for a knighthood, I accepted.

Now, before all eyes, Ser Cleon would be the first man to go from slave to noble in one day. "

Dani looked around, and the more than 1 slaves at the scene were silent. They all looked at the butcher excitedly waving to everyone with complicated eyes.

"Kryon, do you know the etiquette of being promoted to a knight?" She asked in a low voice.

"know a little."

"Okay." Dany put on a straight face and shouted, "Kleon!"

The butcher was stunned before kneeling in front of her with an excited face, "I would like to serve Queen Daenerys."

"Phew!" Dany drew out the long sword at her waist, put the tip of the sword on Cleon's shoulder, and asked, "Are you willing to fight for the cause of freeing slaves all your life?"

Is there something wrong with this oath and what the scholar told him?

Cleon was only in a daze for a few moments, then felt a tingling pain in his neck, and suddenly came to his senses. When he saw the impatient look in Queen Dany's eyes, he immediately shouted loudly: "I am willing!"

Dany moved the blade on his neck to the side, and said with a smile, "Are you willing to be the vanguard of the slave liberation movement?"

"I am willing!"

mmp, my neck is bleeding?

it hurts!

It turns out that when the nobles of Westeros swear an oath, the sharp sword on their shoulders is used for this purpose

"Would you like to be the representative of the slave rebels?" Dany asked again.

"I am willing."

"Very well, I understand your determination, sir." Dany switched the bloodshot edge of the sword point to another shoulder, and solemnly announced: "I now give you 'Sir Shattered Fetters', and you can also choose' Broken Shackles' is his surname.

Use your butcher's knife to sever the slave's shackles beneath the harpy's claws, my Ser Kryon the Shatterer! "

The Gith people are known as the "sons of the harpies", and the symbol of Astapor is the harpy holding the shackles with its claws.

As for the surname, the Cleon family has been slaves for generations, and they have no surname at all. Using the title as a surname is also Dani's previous plan.

"I, Cleon Broken Shackle, swear in the name of Sir Broken Shackle, I will use my life to protect my oath!" Cleon happily opened his fat mouth.

To be honest, although he asked Dany for the position of Duke of Astapor, he didn't have high expectations deep in his heart.

After all, the one who rules Astapor now is Queen Dany, who owns the Unsullied and the dragons, and Kaiyon and Meereen are still there!

What he wants most is actually to be superior to others, as the only knight among the slaves, he thinks that his status at this time is already under Queen Dany and above ten thousand people.

He achieved his goal, was really happy, and satisfied for the time being.

"Hail to Ser Shattered Chains!" Dany sheathed her sword and led the applause.

"Long live Queen Daenerys!"

"Long live the Mother of Dragons!"

"Sir Broken, Sir Broken!"

There were chaotic calls, slaps and stomps from below, as well as the crisp sound of chains colliding.

After making a fuss for a while, Dany lowered her hands, pointed at the corpse crucified on the cross, and said to Cleon, "Sir Broken Shackles, break their shackles for me."

"As ordered!"

Amidst the cheers of the crowd, the passionate butcher Sir drew out the butcher's knife from his waist, and swiftly chopped off the hemp ropes and spikes tied to the slave's wrists, ankles, and necks.

That skillful knifeman really has a bit of a lacquer demeanor, and he is indeed the number one pork guy in Astapor!

Dany knelt down on one knee and unfastened the collars on the slaves' necks. Every time she untied a collar, she held it high above the head for all the slaves in the audience to see, then threw it to the ground and said loudly: "I declare, you Gain freedom and return the status of free people to the kingdom of gods."

There were more than a dozen corpses in a row, and her white hands were covered with dirty blood, minced meat and a few fat maggots.

"Mother of Dragons, Mother of Dragons"

"Misha, Misha, Misha!"

The slave below burst into tears with excitement, and gradually, the Mother of Dragons became "Misha".

Well, Misha means "mother" in the Ghiscari language of the ancient Ghis Empire.

The warm atmosphere at the scene moved Danni, who was originally a bit of a show.

Alas, I can't just think about ruling the world and building an immortal golden family. I should bring something better to this world.

Abolition of slavery is one of the goals!

At this moment, the consciousness in Danni's heart sublimated into a firm belief.

She patted the newly-promoted Sir on the shoulder and ordered: "Sir Cleon, now I entrust you with a glorious mission to lead your original chefs to recruit and surrender the rebels in each pyramid. You don't have to go into battle personally, you can recruit A 100-man jazz guard."

Turning his head to look at the blood and dirt on his shoulders, the corners of Kleon's mouth twitched a few times, and he said stiffly, "Obey!"

"Sir, you have to understand that the title is promoted because of merit." Dany said meaningfully.

The implication in the words was too obvious, Sir Butcher's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "I promise to complete the task!"

After handing over the dirty work to the ambitious Ser Broken Chain, Dany continues her glamorous show.

She first gave a sincere speech, mainly expressing her heartfelt hatred of slavery and deep sympathy for the slaves.

Then it is the same as dealing with centaur slaves and Unsullied: if you want to get rid of slavery, you must fight for it yourself.

Well, the rioting slaves were separated from the rest of Astapor by the Unsullied guards.

The slaves who rebelled on the battlefield had already paid the price in blood. Dany walked past them one by one. The Unsullied untie the chains and collars of the slaves for them. She announced loudly, "You have won your freedom with your own hands and courage."

Excluding the 2000 slaves who died in battle, about 5000 rioting slaves survived, and they were all brought here by the Unsullied.

And after the Unsullied announced Dani's policy in the neighborhood, tens of thousands of melon-eating slaves came to the Pride Square to watch - their masters dared not detain them any longer.

Regarding these inactions and only picking up ready-made and cheap "smart people", Dany didn't embarrass them, she just asked them to shout "I want freedom" just like yesterday's Unsullied.

Almost everyone shouted.

Well, "almost" means there are still people who don't want to be free.
