What is a ruler?

Rulers do the most cruel and ruthless things under the guise of justice, kindness, freedom and other seemingly beautiful things.

Especially in Westeros, a land where a complete feudal system has been established, only the most powerful and ruthless nobles are qualified to sit on the Iron King and give orders.

Why did the Targaryens become the royal family?

Was it the justice and kindness of Aegon the Conqueror that moved those lords and kings?

No!

It's a dragon!

The dragon with destructive power made all the nobles at that time feel fear, and they knelt down and chose to surrender.

Robert Baratheon also ascended the throne not for any reason such as justice or kindness, but because he beat Rhaegar to death in the Battle of the Trident, overthrew the Targaryen dynasty with naked violence, and then Only then did he ascend to the throne.

In the subsequent Five Kings Rebellion, no matter which one it was, there were nobles and huge armies supporting them, so in the end there was only one factor that could determine who would own the Iron Throne, and that was power, a power so powerful that it was unrivaled.

In the world of A Song of Ice and Fire, the only powerful force recognized by both nobles and commoners is the king soaring in the sky - the dragon.

And almost all monarchs who are regarded as wise and powerful by the world, without exception, are doing one thing, and that is to constantly suppress the endless greed and desires of their nobles.

…

A few minutes later, when Daenerys returned to the royal conference room again, the ministers who were still quarreling immediately closed their mouths in unison, with unconcealable horror and fear in their eyes.

Because she did not come back alone, but descended from the sky with Kuro Kelba and Zhang Cheng. The invisible energy field emanating from the body of the divine dragon made all the knights who had undergone strict training feel difficulty breathing. Not to mention those old guys who have already been drained of their bodies by drinking and sex.

Plop!

Plop!

Plop!

Everyone present, without exception, could clearly hear the sound of their own heart beating, and it was beating faster and faster.

Some of them couldn't hold on anymore and even began to bleed from their mouths and noses, and their whole bodies were shaking slightly uncontrollably.

In the name of the Queen! I now declare that the Lannister family, extremely subordinate, is officially deprived of all noble titles, territories and property, and becomes a traitor to the country. They have only one fate, and that is to be completely destroyed. Tell me, who among you Who agrees and who opposes? Daenerys asked loudly and condescendingly while riding on the back of a dragon.

The normally boastful nobles were like chickens stuck in their necks at this moment. No one dared to speak out. They all lowered their heads to show the most humble and respectful side of themselves.

You must know that in the civil war that broke out not long ago, all those who had integrity and a sense of honor were almost dead. The remaining ones were basically guys who were good at changing the situation and would not jump out and seek death themselves.

God knows at the next moment, the huge dragon will open its mouth and spit out extremely hot dragon breath.

Appreciating such an interesting scene, Zhang Cheng couldn't help laughing. While laughing, he said sarcastically: Dear, did you see it? This is the true face of the nobles! To deal with them, what you need is not to be reasonable, but to be firm. Hold the sword in your hand.

If someone stood up and objected just now, what should I do? Daenerys turned around curiously and asked.

It's simple! Classify that man and his family into the Lannister camp, then uproot them, and kill them all, men, women, old and young. Remember, nothing strengthens memory more than bloodshed, ensuring that every No nobles dare to launch rebellion easily. In fact, your father Aerys II did a good job in this regard. Although his spirit is slightly abnormal, almost everyone is afraid of him. The only regret is that he did not Dragon, so he was defeated by the usurper Robert. Zhang Cheng explained deliberately pretending to be nonchalant.

There is no doubt that he is taking the opportunity to instill his dark ideas into the queen who has no experience in governing, and plans to see if he can train her to become a qualified tyrant.

That's right!

tyrant!

A monarch who rules the country with great strength and an iron fist!

Damn it! Who are you? How dare you bewitch His Majesty! An old man who looked to be in his seventies or eighties finally couldn't help but stand up and yelled loudly.

He couldn't believe how much of a threat it would be to all the nobles if the Queen really did this.

No one likes a powerful king who controls everything from life to death!

This is why, in history, all monarchs who have accomplished something have never been evaluated highly. On the contrary, those mediocre people who basically do nothing and leave the tasks of governing the country to their ministers often receive extremely high evaluations in the end. .

Me? Zhang Cheng jumped off the dragon's back, walked to the old man calmly, and responded meaningfully: My name is Mason Asplin, Lord of the Reach, Duke of Highgarden, The lawful husband of Queen Daenerys. Now tell me, how do you want to die, old man?

Mason?! The old man's pupils suddenly shrank and he immediately took several steps back.

Dear Oberyn, can I ask you a small favor? Zhang Cheng ignored the old man's panic reaction and turned around to look at the Red Viper.

Of course, it's my honor. Oberyn put one hand on his chest and bowed very solemnly.

As one of the original participants in the entire plan, he knew better than anyone present how terrifying this seemingly harmless young man in front of him was, and even one person was worth tens of thousands of well-equipped troops.

What's more, he is also Dorne's spokesperson in King's Landing, and he knows how to take sides at this time.

Thank you! Please uproot this old guy and his family! Early tomorrow morning, I hope to see their corpses hung on the city wall for public display. Zhang Cheng gave the order unceremoniously.

Kill one to serve as a warning to others!

Many times, the simpler and cruder the treatment, the better the results.

As for launching a rebellion, or playing small tricks such as poisoning and assassination, he didn't care at all. He even had a vague expectation that someone would jump out so that he could kill his boring time.

At least until Volent confirms that there is no danger in this world and reveals the key and location of the fourth seal, he must stay here honestly.

Understood! Please don't worry, you don't have to wait until tomorrow morning, I can get it done before the sun sets today.

The words just fell!

Oberyn Martell suddenly pulled out his sword and pierced the old man's heart from behind. Then he grabbed one of the man's legs and walked out, dragging a bright red blood trail on the ground...
