Ice and Fire: Reign of the Dragon

Chapter 178 Dan Vareses and Orion Vareses

"You, usually like a piece of wood, not much better than Hoffa, why are you so diligent today." Diana was lying on a recliner by the window, and the maid next to her was fanning her. She was once a heroine like Sansara Tarly who could ride a horse and shoot deer with a bow, and could dismount and write account books. No, she is still the housekeeper of the Vareses family who is no less than Amor. Although her battlefield is still the delivery bed.

"Mother, because this is in front of you." Ringol blew on the hot soup sent from the kitchen and watched his mother drink it in small sips.

"Your father is not very satisfied with your performance, Ringol." Diana put down the bowl of soup that was still half full. She looked at her eldest son gently. This child has been with his father for so many years. He is filial and obedient, but he is a little naive, or childish, or stupid. This child thinks that rules and oaths are above everything else, and blindly imitates Hoffa, the Law-Keeper, who also abides by oaths and rules.

Please, Hoffa is a minister of Dragonzel, and he only needs to abide by Dragonzel's laws and orders, but Ringol is the heir of Dragonzel and the future head of the Vareses family. What oaths does he abide by?

"I heard your father say what you said to Prince Viserys before you left." Diana touched her belly: "Prince Viserys came to Dragon Nest City as a wine steward and attendant when he was much younger than you. He would not say these words at your age. I also know what you did when Samantha and His Majesty Aegon consummated their marriage. Ringol, as a mother, I agree with your approach of protecting your sister, but as the mistress of the Vareses family, I am very disappointed in you, child, think about it, if your father was not in the Red Castle, how would those Kingsguards and nobles treat you?"

"Mother. But"

Diana shook her head: "If the oath was useful, the war would not have happened , the Tully family would not turn their allegiance to the family. If the rules were useful, we would not face so many things. Ringol, your father is right. We have spoiled you too much over the years. "

Ringol couldn't refute his mother. His heart told him that he was right, but the education he received told him that he was wrong. He was not unaware of what his father had done as the Hand of the King in King's Landing. Viserys's tricks did not deviate from the rules of the game. He could secretly connect them. Longzel was not blind to it. Earl Royce Cullen of Nightsong City came to the Purple Palace to retire not long ago. His heir, Baran Cullen, who grew up in the Purple Palace, inherited Nightsong City. Prince Quinlan Dayne sent his heir to serve as Valar's attendant, and Earl Thaddeus Rowan, Earl Redwyne, Earl Fossoway and "Evening Star" Earl Tarth came directly to Summer Hall to participate in the summer feast organized by Rey.

He realized his naivety and stupidity, and the boy lowered his head in shame. He knew that his father was not very satisfied with him, but he still let him participate in the handling of government affairs and carefully taught him knowledge in various fields. Although he felt that oaths and rules were important, the woman in front of him, his father whom he regarded as a god, and his brothers and sisters were also important, even more important than rules and oaths.

But why can't I control my brain?

"Lingol, this is your father's order." Diana touched her son's hair: "He asked you to take your sword and armor after your brothers were born, go to the prince's territory in the borderland, go to various places in Westeros, and then think about what you should do."

Diana's voice gradually lowered: "Mother has won a war horse for you. Child, go and see the outside world."

"Yes, mother."

Lingol was actually a little surprised. His father didn't say a word to him after returning to Dragon's Nest City, and he already felt something was wrong. Now he finally confirmed his father's meaning.

Isn't it just an "expedition" to the whole of Westeros?

Ringol believed that he could do it.

Watching her son leave, Diana sighed. This child, I don't know if he can really grow up this time.

"Take me to see Renia, she gave birth for the first time." Diana called the maid: "I need to be by her side."

On the other side, the Five Finger Hall.

Hoffa stood beside Longzel and said with his head down: "Your Highness, it is my responsibility. I should be responsible for the stupidity of His Highness Ringol now."

Longzel sighed and shook his head: "It's not your responsibility. It's because Ringol didn't learn your truly excellent qualities."

"Your Highness, do I need to send someone to follow His Highness Ringol?"

Longzel smiled: "If someone follows and protects this kid anytime and anywhere, what's the point of the expedition?"

"I understand, Your Highness." Hoffa nodded and stopped advising Longzel on this issue.

The people of Midsummer Hall gathered again in front of the square of the Seven Dragon Cathedral. The crowds of people gathered into an endless sea, with no end in sight. Everyone was praying for Lady Diana and Lady Renia, praying for them to give birth to their children safely.

This is an old tradition in Midsummer Hall. Every time the women of the Varese family gave birth, people would gather together to pray for them.

The sound of singing the hymn to the Virgin Mary was like a tide, surging throughout the Midsummer Hall, wave after wave, and everyone was immersed in this atmosphere.

The church bells rang.

In the Purple Palace.

The Iron Bank's messenger raised his head, which was fiddling with flowers and plants. He was well-informed in Braavos, but this scene always shocked him.

Countless people, countless praises, and dragon roars that resounded through the world.

Almost everything can give people a different shock.

"As expected of the Varese family." The messenger squinted at the sun in the sky.

His ears were filled with songs that spread throughout the city.

The Dragon's Nest seemed to be trembling. He heard the roars of giant dragons one after another, which were still clearly audible even in the Purple Palace. There was the thunderous roar of Wormisol, the singing voice of Star Song, and the sharp cry of Shadow Nightmare.

"Uncle Gao Hat, Uncle Gao Hat." Several children raised in the Purple Palace ran over. "The bells are ringing, it's time to give candy."

"Okay, okay." This is a secret signal between him and the children. If there is news that the children are born safely, the messenger will give these children expensive candies from Braavos - although candy is not rare in the Purple Palace, the children are very happy.

He is also very happy. The Rogaer family will probably withdraw their investment soon. Concentrate on the industry in King's Landing.

The opportunity for the Iron Bank is coming.

The children were born safely.

Diana and Rhaena gave birth to sons almost at the same time.

Diana's third son is still a beautiful boy with silver hair and purple eyes. Although he was wrinkled when he was born, he is stronger than his brothers.

Rhaena's eldest son is a very strong little guy. His cry almost blew off the ceiling of the delivery room - although this is impossible.

Longzel chose names for the two children.

Dan Vareses, a famous figure in the history of Valyria. The name of "the Guide" Dan. He once led the first Valyrian shepherds to discover the dragon in the Fourteen Fire Peaks, and he was the first to climb on the dragon's back.

Although in the records of Valyria, the brave Dan died in the dragon's fiery flames, he opened the glorious era of Valyria.

Orion Vareses, the name of the eldest son of Rhaena and Rey, he is the eleventh boy with this name in the history of Vareses.

The first ten, including the fool who called himself the emperor, were all the best warriors in Valyria.

This is the name of the warrior.
