Game of Thrones: The Strongest Dragon Mother

Chapter 68 The Retired Men in the World of Ice and Fire (recommendation ticket requested)

New Ghis was built on a long and narrow island two kilometers wide and eight kilometers long.Since the large island of Jean at the southern end is like a crab, extending two large pincers to protect the small island of New Ghis in the center, the sea near the harbor is very calm.

On the blue mirror-like sea, there are hundreds of big ships hovering, including bright red wooden hull boats, white-painted oar clippers, and black pot-bellied sea boats. Many of them are the same as Dany and the others. Waiting for the sea breeze to come.

You ask, why not accurately estimate the arrival of the monsoon every year like the earth, and then sail along the monsoon?

Hehe, in this fantasy world, even the seasons are not fixed, where does the monsoon come from?

Dani has been here for almost half a year, but only the temperature changes brought about by the latitude—it gets colder the closer you get to the north, and hotter the further you go south—you don’t feel the slightest change in the seasons.

In the afternoon, the blue sea and sky became one color, and the green canvas on the mast was as fluffy as an old grandmother's nipples. In the shade of the bow, several people chatted while looking at the scenery.

When it comes to changing seasons, Whitebeard tells Dany that summer is not completely over yet, at least there is still a year of "ghost summer".

Danni was very interested in what "Ghost Xia" said, so she asked the old man to explain.

But before Whitebeard could speak, Jorah said, "Northernmen know the seasons better than Southerners.

In summer, there can be many harvests, providing people with a lot of food, and the poor can also have food and clothing, so everyone is looking forward to the arrival of "Yongxia".

However, in summer, the sunshine time is long and the weather is often overheated, which often leads to drought.

Especially at the end of the long summer, which lasts for several years, the weather is too hot, and a large amount of water evaporates into the sky, making the sky dark and cloudy, and water vapor is everywhere.This season is called 'ghost summer'.

There is no doubt that this summer lasted for 11 years, it must be considered a long summer, but after the long summer, the last year must be a "ghost summer", after the ghost summer there is a year of autumn, after autumn"

Speaking of this, Jorah's face became serious, and he sighed: "After the long summer, there must be a long winter that lasts for several years, and the harsh winter is coming!

In Westeros, the lords fought in a melee, and the peasants were conscripted by the lords to serve as soldiers. They would definitely not be able to accumulate food in the past two years. Two years later, when winter comes, it is unknown how many people will die. The south may not be afraid of long winter, but the north "

"Lord Mormont is right." Rarely, Whitebeard agreed with Jorah's words. "Before I left the Seven Kingdoms, the Cardinals had sent ravens everywhere."

Dani raised her eyebrows, "White Crow?"

"There is a school city in the old town, you know that?"

Seeing Dani nodding, Whitebeard continued: "The changes of seasons are closely related to the lives of the people of the Seven Kingdoms, but commoners and nobles don't understand climate and astronomical phenomena, so they can only rely on the bachelors of the Academy City.

The Academy City specially formed an astronomical observation committee to measure the length of daylight every day, observe the changes in the constellations in the sky, and other observation objects that I don't know.

The members of the Observation Committee aggregated the collected data and sent it to the Cardinal Council in the Academy City—the management group of the Academy City.

Be aware that only PhDs are eligible to attend meetings of the Council of Cardinals.

A group of the most knowledgeable and experienced doctors can accurately calculate the change of seasons through the collected data.Then, they will use the white crow to send the message to the fiefs of the major lords. "

Seems pretty advanced!

Dani nodded and asked, "Did the doctors make a mistake in their calculations?"

When Whitebeard heard the words, his expression suddenly became dazed, as if her words reminded him of a painful memory.

"Wrong spring!" Jorah Mormont murmured.

White Beard closed his eyes for a while, and then opened them suddenly. The pain in his eyes had disappeared, and he said softly: "After summer, there is a year of autumn, and after the long winter, there is also a year of warm spring. Whenever spring comes , everyone will know that the cruel winter has passed, and a beautiful summer is coming.

When the White Pigeon of Xuecheng brings the news of spring to everyone, people all over the country will take out the last stored grain and hold the spring celebration. "

Dany nodded, it was probably the Westeros Spring Festival.

Several years of summer, one year of autumn, and several years of winter, finally waited for a year of spring.

Well, the people of Westeros are miserable. On average, the Spring Festival can only be celebrated once every ten years

Whitebeard continued: "However, the climate may be abnormal at the end of winter. The weather is getting warmer, as if spring is coming, but the winter will remain cold, and people will not be able to grow crops and resume production.

The last false spring happened in the early days of the Usurper War, about 18 years ago.

The cardinal's white crow came to King's Landing, and the lord of Harrenhal, Earl He'an, to show his status and to celebrate the coming long summer, invited all the warriors of the Seven Kingdoms to a tournament.

Your elder brother, Prince Rhaegar, is very brave, defeated all powerful enemies, and won the championship of the tournament.

But he put the winter snow rose laurel crown representing "Queen of Love and Beauty" on the lap of Robert Baratheon's fiancée, Lyanna of the Stark family, instead of his wife, Dorne On the head of Princess Elia Martell.

That scene at that time, I don’t need to say it next, you probably already understand it? "

moron?Sperm on the brain?Meet true love?

Dany couldn't be sure what that cheap big brother was thinking.

In Qidian's novels, it is mostly the woman who looks down on the man and tears up the marriage contract. This kind of plot is commonly known as the "retirement flow".There have also been three famous divorce events in this world in a row, but it was the man who divorced the woman.

The woman didn't shout "30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi" and "Don't bully girls into poverty", but the woman's parents are ruthless characters, making the scumbag pay a greater price.

About 60 years ago, Daenerys' great-uncle, Duncan Targaryen, known as "Short Duncan", divorced the daughter of the Duke of Baratheon for the sake of a commoner woman, "Jane of Wild Rock City".

Well, Prince Duncan was not short. The reason why he was called Short Duncan was because there was a legendary knight in the Kingsguard at that time, "Tall Duncan".Well, that Ser Duncan was very tall.Tall Duncan was a great knight, and kings have served him as squires.Apparently, Prince Duncan was named after Knight Duncan.

Crown Prince Duncan paid the price of a throne and a sister, and also laid the lead for the future demise of the Targaryen family.

The ending of a generation of ex-married men is not bad. The legendary story of him not loving the country but only loving beautiful women has been sung by countless bards, and he finally got the reputation of "Prince of Dragonfly".

How many boudoir girls, because of this story, became obsessed with Prince Longflei, and became crazy with envy of Jian Ni in Huangshi City.

The second-generation ex-married man is Dani's eldest brother Rega. He did not divorce because he was already married when he met his true love and had two children.

(ps: In the "Game of Thrones" TV series, Rhaegar divorced, and quietly asked the priest to dissolve his marriage with Princess Elia of Dorne. Poor Princess Elia, she didn't know that she was returned until she died! )

Rhaegar paid a heavier price: his wife was strengthened and killed, his son and daughter died tragically, the king's father died tragically, the family was destroyed, and the Targaryen dynasty ended.

Well, he himself hung up.

Capitalize the word "miserable".

From now on, about a year later, the third generation of ex-married men will be born. Robb Stark will fall in love with the daughter of a small noble family, the daughter of the ex-marquis Frey family.

By the way, the woman who annulled King Robb was also named Jeyne.

The name "Jenny" is poisonous.

The price Robb paid was also very high: his own life, the dream of the king in the north, half of his mother died tragically (resurrected as a ghost), countless nobles in the north died tragically, and the Stark family was on the verge of destruction.

"Wrong season, wrong choice, that is the most wrong spring!" Whitebeard concluded.

"Attention the crew of the Saidu Lyon, this is the New Guis Customs Patrol! Attention the crew of the Saidu Lyon, this is the New Guis Customs Patrol"

A voice came from the sea outside the ship. The other party shouted five times in an accented Valyrian. The voice was so loud that even Dany and the others at the bow heard it from a distance of tens of meters.

Ser Jorah walked to the side of the ship, looked down for a while, and then came back and said, "The new Ghis customs boat is docked beside our merchant ship, and seems to be inspecting our cargo."

"Why is that? We didn't even enter the dock area." Dany asked puzzled.

"The last time we docked here from Pentos to Qarth, we were also inspected. According to Grole, the New Ghisians were there to prevent pirate ships from sneaking into the harbor in disguise," Whitebeard said.

Dani became interested when she heard the words, and took the lead to walk towards the entrance of the warehouse, and several people followed immediately.

Two Ghis warriors in leather armor, a middle-aged official in dark robes, they are stout, with amber skin, broad noses and black eyes.

The most memorable thing is that the three Ghisians, whether they are soldiers or officials, have red and black straight hair.

It's not dyed, it's natural black and red, with the hairstyle of Xiandao in "Slam Dunk".

It's a pity that they don't have the appearance of Xiandao, and they feel a bit ugly and mischievous.

They said they wanted to check the goods, but they just went down and took a look to make sure that they really contained goods and not armed personnel, so the Ghis people came up.

The whole process does not exceed 3 minutes.

"So fast, what are you all checking?" Dany asked the officer who was climbing from the cabin to the deck.

"Ah, you..." the man was stunned at first, then suddenly said excitedly: "You are the mother of dragons, queen of the land of the setting sun, Daenerys Targaryen!? I heard that you bought a camel and plan to travel by land The people of Meereen look forward to seeing dragons day and night!"

Will let them see enough.

Dany nodded, "I am Daenerys."

"Oh, I'm the Special Commissioner of New Ghis Customs, Zanak zo Lorak." He quickly introduced himself with a salute.

"Hello, Mr. Lorak." With a greeting, Dany asked in confusion, "You know the route I originally planned?"

The Gissman proudly waved his hand at the thousands of large ships floating in the sea, saying: "New Giss is the gateway to the western world, and the news of the real dragon's birth is spreading among the sailors at the dock."

After the two new Ghis soldiers and several sailors also climbed onto the deck, the middle-aged customs officer explained: "Mother of Dragons, you may not know that the summer sea has been very unstable in the past six months, and there have been many pirate lootings. The Merchant Marine incident happened.

Especially in the area of ​​the Sea of ​​Sorrows near Valyria, some people saw the red devil ship appearing in the mist. "
