A Western fantasy journey that began with Game of Thrones

"The disciples are escaping overseas via the Crab Claw Peninsula?"

A surprised rhetorical question rang out in the empty hall, followed immediately by another steady female voice.

"Yes, they secretly gathered from all over the Seven Kingdoms towards the Crab Claw Peninsula, and the lords there not only provided protection, but also contacted ships to smuggle them out of Westeros."

Renly, who was sitting on the lord's chair, narrowed his eyes upon hearing this.

The words spoken by the silver-haired "man" wearing a black cloak at the bottom of the stairs were completely unexpected to him, but he could tell that the words were true, at least the other person believed them to be true.

This was an unexpected gain.

After arriving at Dragonstone, Renly no longer paid attention to any abnormalities on the Crab Claw Peninsula. After all, he learned that the "habit" of killing tax collectors there had long existed, and it did not happen suddenly.

As for the guy in front of him who had been ordered by him to go to the Crab Claw Peninsula, Renly even forgot about him, thinking that this person would obviously only go on a wasted trip, and the investigation would yield no results.

The current situation is contrary to speculation.

But even though it sounded true, Renly still found a loophole in it.

"The shipping around the Crab Claw Peninsula is active. If people from the peninsula really smuggled people out on a large scale, how could they not be discovered?"

"It's not large-scale, but delivered in batches." After hearing this, the silver-haired Maegor said without any pause: "Pantos has a trading ship arriving at Seagull Town every once in a while, and those trading merchant ships can pass by Crab Claw. Near the peninsula, pick up the smugglers there and return, as long as you are careful, it will be inconspicuous. "

Renly frowned at this.

Pentos is one of the nine Free Trade Cities, across the sea from King's Landing, while Seagull Town is a large trading city on the northern shore of the Crab Claw Peninsula on the edge of the valley. It is also one of the five major cities in Westeros.

The other four are King's Landing, Oldtown in the Reach, White Harbor in the north, and Lannister Harbor in the west.

The distance between Seagull Town and Pentos is not far, so there must be a lot of trade, and the route between them does pass through the Crab Claw Peninsula, so if there is such a cover, it can indeed be considered hidden.

However, if this is the case, does it mean that Pentos, one of the nine free trade city-states, has also joined the Targaryen side?

Thinking about this in his mind, Renly asked: "How did you find out about this news?"

"We have our own ways." Maegor replied, but after thinking about it, she seemed to feel that this was not enough to show her "sincerity", so she added: "The people of Crab Claw Peninsula are very xenophobic, but among us There are people like them who know all the customs and geography of the peninsula, so it is not difficult to sneak in and get information in a short time. "

Renly couldn't help but smile when he heard this.

"It seems there are quite a lot of talents among you."

"Of course." Maegor replied proudly: "We are not many in number, but we all have real abilities!"

"The number is not large..." Renly thought for a while and asked: "As far as I know, people like you are not found in one place, but are all over the seven kingdoms. So how on earth do you bring people together?" Gathered together?”

"You are not the only one with unique abilities." Maegor smiled mysteriously after hearing this: "I have my own way."

Renly narrowed his eyes.

Compared with nine years ago, this person is much smarter and has a much calmer personality. It seems that she has been hit a lot, and the people behind her...

"How do you feel standing here?"

He suddenly straightened up, with a majestic look on his face, looking down at the silver-haired "man" standing at the foot of the steps.

"This island, this castle, and this chair under my butt were once all yours."

"once?"

Maegor pursed her lips when she heard this, and then said to him calmly: "I used to pee standing up, but now I'm used to squatting."

…

The conversation in the hall lasted for a long time, and that night, several ravens suddenly fluttered their wings from the top of the crow's nest tower in the castle and flew in all directions, and then successively reached the hands of several vassals under Renly's command.

After receiving the letter, Count Sandras of Wonderful Harbor began to gather ships and soldiers without much hesitation, preparing to go to the waters of Crab Claw Peninsula to snipe the smugglers. Count Baraemon of Sharp Point looked at his only son, While coughing, he ordered his subordinates to do the same.

Count Velaryon of Tidehead Island frowned at this, but he still responded to the call, but the speed of gathering soldiers or preparing ships seemed to be slow.

Count Cetiga of Crab Island was overjoyed when he saw this letter, and chatted cheerfully with his round-faced son who was waiting beside him.

"I told you before, running and crying will always be effective. Look, the effect is coming now!"

"But why didn't that guy express his position at that time?"

The round-faced young man was surprised after reading the contents of the letter: "He has guessed our plan."

"What is that guy? Call me Lord Duke and speak respectfully!" The old earl straightened up after hearing this and said seriously: "Duke Renly guessed our plan and said it in public. It was a warning. After he said it, he Or prepare to intervene in this matter, that is taking care of it, you understand? "

"So what that person means is..."

"It means that if you help him honestly, it will be easy no matter what, but if you try to be clever, you won't get any good results." Old Earl Celtija said with a look of emotion on his face.

"When I first met the Duke in King's Landing ten years ago, I felt that he was extraordinary. Now it seems that I was indeed wrong."

"So is the content of this letter true or false?"

"Of course it can't be false."

The old man heard this and said, "If you want to ask the Iron Throne to send troops, fake news is impossible. But the Duke is investigating while exposing you, and the meaning is very clear, so we must actively respond..."

...

Merchant ships are not comparable to warships, and although Renly's vassals are not many, because they are within the ocean, each family has several warships.

Under normal circumstances, these ships are more than enough to surround one or two sneaky merchant ships, but as if worried about insecurity, Renly sent letters not only to several earls under his command, but also to the Graveson family in the Vale.

The Graveson family has a huge influence in the Vale, and it rules the port city of Seagull Town. The distance between it and Dragonstone Island is not far, and there is only a crab claw peninsula that extends from the land into the sea, like a crab claw.

However, compared with the barren Dragonstone, the trading city of Gulltown, which is backed by the resources of the entire valley, is not only rich but also powerful. Therefore, even though the current lord of Dragonstone has a special status, the young Earl Grafson did not take it seriously. Instead, he sneered after receiving the letter.

"Cooperate with Dragonstone to encircle our business partners in Pentos? Do you think I am his vassal? How dare you order them..."

"The performance of the Duke of Dragonstone in the Reach is enough to prove that he is very smart, sir, maybe we can sell him a good deal on this matter." The steward of the Grafson family beside him also saw the content of the letter, so he made a suggestion.

"What if he is smart? His territory is too small, and there is no possibility of inheriting the Iron Throne. We don't need to pay such a price to please him." Earl Grafson replied, secretly thinking about another thing, but after hesitating for a moment, he still gave up the idea.

"We are only responsible for watching the show." He said to the steward. Thank you Su Xuanzhe ovo for the 1,000-yuan reward, thank you 92 for the 500-yuan reward, and thank you xiaotang246 for the 100-yuan reward~
