Riverrun, Robb's study.

After several months of absence, Robb finally returned here and began to deal with the next government affairs.

The Minister of Intelligence, Earl Blackfish, stood respectfully at the bottom and reported the intelligence he had collected from all over the continent: "Your Majesty, King's Landing defeated Stannis's army and severely damaged Stannis's fleet in the Blackwater River. At the gate of the city, Tywin's army arrived and defeated Stannis's army that was besieging the city."

Robb was not surprised by the news. After all, there was not much influence of the butterfly effect there.

"Stannis fled back to the Stormlands with his remaining troops, but most of the lords, including Storm's End, have surrendered to King's Landing. Only a small number of lords in the entire Stormlands are still loyal to him."

Robb nodded slightly. Originally, Stannis should have fled to the Great Wall in the North. Now the entire North is still in his control. He should not come. I don't know how he will develop in the future.

As for Stannis, Robb didn't think he would surrender. He was a very ambitious man, and he had the red witch Melisandre to assist him. He would not fail easily.

Earl Blackfish continued: "As for King's Landing, they have married Dorne and obtained the loyalty of most of the lords of the Stormlands. Their power and influence are gradually expanding. It is said that Cersei is preparing to reorganize the royal fleet."

Robb didn't take Cersei's little idea to heart. This was just a dying struggle.

Earl Blackfish retreated after reporting, and Robb also had a general understanding of the current situation.

Now on the continent of Westeros, except for the Vale of Arryn, which still maintains neutrality on the surface, the rest of the forces basically choose to stand in line.

Robb controls the North and the Iron Group-the Riverlands, and his ally is the Riverlands.

Tywin controls King's Landing, as well as most of the Stormlands and the Westerlands, and his ally is Dorne.

Stannis curled up in a corner of the Stormlands, and he didn't know when he would be strangled by Tywin's army.

Robb lowered his head and thought slightly: "In general, now it is a confrontation between myself and the old lion Tywin."

"But both of us need to stabilize the internal situation, and the situation will probably last for a while..."

After the Blackfish Earl left the study, Uncle Edmure, the Minister of Logistics, walked in.

Uncle Edmure was in high spirits. The trade in Riverrun was getting more and more prosperous, and his business was naturally getting bigger and bigger. Seeing the money in the vault growing, how could he not be in a good mood?

It was just that the poor girl who needed to be taken care of recently had a little price increase because of the good business, which made Edmure a little dissatisfied.

"Your Majesty! Your miracles in Pike have been spread everywhere. Now children as young as five or six in Riverrun are singing your songs!"

Uncle Edmure reported happily: "The news of your marriage with Highgarden has also been released. Those merchants, like greedy jackals, have all flocked to Riverrun. The city can no longer accommodate so many people!"

As soon as the news of Robb's capture of the Iron Islands and his marriage with Highgarden was released, the merchants with a keen sense of smell immediately realized that there were huge business opportunities here!

As long as the mountains of materials flow, they can create huge wealth!

And Robb is now in full swing, and he is invincible in all battles, big and small. Many people are optimistic about Robb becoming the new Lord of the Seven Kingdoms.

Robb nodded: "Riverrun is indeed a little small, and there are rivers on all sides, so it is difficult to expand."

After taking the Iron Islands, Robb prepared to choose a place as the capital of his dynasty.

Neither Riverrun nor Winterfell is suitable.

One is too small and its development is restricted; the other is too remote and is not suitable to be a capital at all.

After much thought, the only place that can combine geographical advantages and infrastructure is Harrenhal, the legendary cursed city.

Harrenhal was originally known as the most majestic and indestructible fortress in Westeros, and its geographical location is also very good, in the plains and by the God's Eye Lake.

It just so happened that its original family was killed when Tywin invaded, so Robb could take over legitimately.

Thinking of this, Robb instructed Edmure: "Uncle Edmure, write a letter to Highgarden and ask them to go to the Citadel to recruit some maesters who know architecture. I want to expand Harrenhal again."

Uncle Edmure's heart skipped a beat, and he felt a little disappointed and a little relieved: "Okay, Your Majesty, I'll do it right away."

He understood Robb's thoughts. He was disappointed that Riverrun could not become the royal city, and he still had a lot of feelings for the castle.

Fortunately, Robb left and he could inherit Riverrun again.

Human emotions are so complicated.

"Oh, by the way," Robb stopped his uncle who was about to leave, "In order to appease the Frey family, I promised the old weasel that one of his daughters would marry you. Don't be too busy taking care of the poor woman recently. Get ready for the wedding."

When Edmure heard this, his face turned green and he was instantly dejected: "Okay..."

The Frey family is notoriously ugly, and the old weasel is even more ugly.

How can such an old man's daughter be pretty?

But this is a political marriage, and Edmure knows that he must make sacrifices.

At worst, get married first, and if the bride is not pretty, go out to take care of the poor people.

——

The study became quiet, Robb stretched and took out the dragon egg from the box next to it.

After getting this dragon egg, Robb has not studied it carefully. Now he has plenty of time to study it. Robb is ready to hatch this thing.

After all, which man can refuse to become a dragon rider?

All dragons on the continent of Westeros are fire dragons. Robb thinks that the eggs should be hatched with the magical element of fire.

"Well, but isn't this too uncreative..."

Thinking back to the borderland, he had killed many dragons. Except for the ancient dragons, those dragons were not much different in essence, but their elemental attributes would change with the changes in the environment.

"How about adding some scarlet corruption to this egg and hatching a corrupt dragon?"

As soon as Robb had this idea, he denied it.

Forget it. Let's not talk about whether the young dragon inside can withstand the scarlet corruption. If a corrupt dragon is really hatched, the whole continent will become a dead zone.

Other ice, magic, and fire attributes?

They are all average, there is not much difference.

"If you want to make it, you have to make the strongest dragon. Try the attributes of the dragon king."

Thinking back to the dragon king who controlled the power of thunderclouds and time, although it was in a broken state, he died many times before defeating it.

It is probably impossible for this dragon egg to perfectly replicate the Dragon King, but it should be possible to have a little bit of the Dragon King's majesty, right...

Robb was not sure either. This was his first time hatching a dragon egg, so he had to explore everything.

Standing up, Robb stretched out his left hand with a thought, and a huge and vigorous force gathered on his left hand, and then the dragon claw appeared.

Putting the dragon egg on the phantom of the dragon claw, Robb suddenly felt that he was much more closely connected with the dragon egg.

He could even feel that the dragon egg on the dragon claw was more active than usual!

Robb verified his guess: "Sure enough, the breath related to the dragon can make the dragon egg active and close. Let's try to see if it can be hatched first."

Robb stretched out his right hand, and a beam of flame shot out straight, roasting the dragon egg on the dragon claw.

The dragon claw vibrated instantly, and Robb clearly felt that the life in the dragon egg became more active, as if there was an urge to break out of the shell.

Robb stopped quickly, otherwise the dragon would hatch a fire dragon similar to the three dragon mothers.

"Since ordinary magic flames can hatch, dragon breath should be no problem."

After confirming that the dragon egg can hatch, Robb directly started his plan, keeping his left hand in the shape of a dragon claw, jumped into the air, and started the Dragon King's prayer!

[Death of Platon Shanks]

The phantom of the Dragon King's head appeared above Robb's head, and the golden and surging breath burst out violently, rushing towards the dragon egg in Robb's hand with the momentum and power to destroy everything!

This force is so strong that although Robb has tried his best to control the power of his spell, it still passed through Robb's dragon claws and directly hit the floor of the study.

The dragon egg in his hand began to tremble wildly in this violent breath!

This time, Robb no longer felt the eagerness to break out of the shell, but pain and wailing!

The Dragon King's breath is too strong, and it will directly break the egg!

Robb was startled and stopped quickly.

Everything returned to calm, except for a big hole in the study. The maester working in the room below Robb looked at the hole in the ceiling with horror, not knowing what had happened.

"Your Majesty! What happened!" Several Wolf Guards heard the noise and rushed over to check the situation.

They were relieved to see that Robb was intact.

Then they saw the hole in the floor, and the Wolf Guards were also dumbfounded.

Robb knew that he could not do experiments in the castle, so he left a sentence "Clean up my study and fix the hole in the floor." Then he jumped out of the window and ran outside Riverrun.

Arriving at the river, Robb hurriedly checked the dragon egg in his hand.

"The eggshell is broken, and the vitality has weakened a lot... I have controlled the power to the minimum. Can't I still hatch it with the breath of the Dragon King?"

Robb was a little helpless. How can he remedy this?

After thinking for a while, Robb's eyes lit up: Maybe the Golden Law can be restored?

Robb put the dragon egg on the ground, and a golden light flashed in his hand again. A circle of golden circular inscriptions appeared, centered on the dragon egg, and then slowly rotated. After making a crisp sound, it turned into golden light and dissipated in the air.

These golden lights were absorbed by the dragon egg, and the dragon egg trembled slightly, as if it had regained some vitality.

Robb picked up the dragon egg and checked it. Not only did its vitality recover a little, but the surface of the eggshell seemed to be stained with a faint golden luster?

He breathed a sigh of relief. It would be good if it could be restored. Otherwise, if the dragon egg was killed, he would lose a lot.

At this time, Robb's mind flashed again.

Since the breath of the dragon king can harm the dragon egg, and the recovery spell of the golden law can repair the damage of the dragon egg, does that mean that he can still hatch it with the breath of the dragon king?

It's just that the process is a little slower.

Do you have to stop every time and use the golden law to restore your vitality?

Looking at the dragon egg, Robb fell into deep thought.

As if sensing Robb's thoughts, the dragon egg in his hand also fell silent...
