Aenys Blackfyre is dead?

My little brother, you are very efficient at work!

Clay gave this guy a thumbs up in his heart.

He was not Brynden Rivers, and he certainly did not inherit the intricate interpersonal relationships known at the time.

In his opinion, people like Aenys Blackfire who are looking for death can just be killed. Why don't they keep him for the New Year?

This cannot be said to be a result of being uneducated. In fact, he has to thank himself for not being familiar with this period of history at all.

If it were to be replaced by a part he was familiar with, it would be over, and Clay would have no room for his own performance.

How nice it is now.

After all, it was Brynden Rivers' dream, and Clay could do whatever he wanted.

Because Aenys Blackfyre came to King's Landing in a high profile.

But throughout Westeros, after experiencing three Blackfire rebellions, no one supports the Blackfire family anymore.

Therefore, the nobles who didn't know what was going on had an attitude of love for this "late Black Fire".

No one will elect you as king anyway, so why humiliate yourself, right?

What Clay did could be big or small, it depends on how you understand it.

From the perspective of an enemy country, there is nothing wrong with what Clay did. The enemy royal family caused huge losses to Westeros, so killing and arresting them actually means the same thing.

But the problem is, considering the strange sense of honor of the nobles, this matter is a bit unreasonable.

Because, the reason is that King Mekar died on the battlefield to suppress the rebellion, and then, his successor was unresolved.

At this time, Aenys Blackfire, who also had the right to inherit, wrote a letter to King's Landing, saying that I was coming too.

Prime Minister Brynden Rivers agreed.

This is the making of a contract.

Aenys Blackfyre's safety is ensured by the Kingdom's Prime Minister.

But the problem is, both Brynden Rivers at that time and Clay now chose to send him directly to meet the gods.

In the eyes of the nobles, this is only slightly worse than violating the rights of guests, but it can definitely lead to the death penalty.

After all, gentlemen use honor as a fig leaf.

You have blatantly trampled on your honor. If the noble men don't do it to you, who will do it to you?

If you don't deal with it, who will be able to make an issue of the nobility's inviolability in the future?

This conflict will break out later. The highlight now is still on the four people who are qualified to inherit the throne.

Valera Targaryen, the retarded daughter of Maekar's eldest son Daeron the Drunkard;

Maegor, the young son of Maekar's second son Aerion;

Maekar's third son, Aemon, is the living fossil of the Targaryen family, Maester Aemon.

Aegon, the fourth son of Maekar.

By this time, Clay had completely figured out where he was.

After all, he still knew exactly which kings the Targaryens had.

He also knew exactly who the final winner of this King Selection would be.

Aegon, the most inconspicuous and least worthy of being king, became the final winner.

The lowest in the line of succession, it was never his turn.

However, when encountering this unreasonable king-selection meeting, legal principles directly outweighed the order of succession.

If the king elected by the nobles of the country cannot sit on the Iron Throne, then the Seven Kingdoms will really rebel.

In fact, this can only be said that Aegon V was very lucky. Those before him all had their own fatal problems.

Either they are still nursing, or they are regarded as "crazy" by others, and they even feel that one of them has become a bachelor, which is equivalent to voluntarily giving up the right to inherit the throne.

Coupled with the mental retardation of the leader, Aegon V's throne was chosen for free.

See, this is strong luck.

All inheritance laws are bullshit.

Clay sat on the Iron Throne, watching the noisy nobles below.

Although the food in Junlin is good, it is obvious that the gentlemen did not come all the way here just to eat.

He is now in a dream state and cannot taste anything at all.

Clay is not really Brynden Rivers, and in this situation, it is easy to make mistakes if you say more.

It is better to practice closed-mouth meditation and become a clay statue of Bodhisattva.

Anyway, the final decision was made by him, the now powerful Prime Minister.

What a joke, without his convening, this King Selection Conference would not even be held.

Now that Aenys Blackfyre, who might have disrupted the situation, has lost his head, the situation is under Clay's control.

Finally, a seemingly lively but actually absent-minded banquet came to an end.

Everyone looked at the Prime Minister who sat on the high throne and remained silent throughout the banquet. They could not guess what this powerful Prime Minister was thinking.

After waiting like this for a long time, the Duke of the Stormlands at this time, a Baratheon who Clay didn't even know who he was, stood up from a group of Stormland nobles and faced Clay Loudly said:

"Prime Minister, thank you for your hospitality. We have eaten and drank. Now, should we get down to business?"

Clay knew he couldn't escape this. Fortunately, the prerequisites for this question were quite complete, so there was no need to guess.

He loudly said:

"Thank you all for coming. His Majesty's departure is sudden, but the throne cannot remain vacant for a long time. Therefore, in accordance with the sacred conventions established by His Majesty Jaehaerys I, today, we will hold a meeting of lords here to elect our new king. .”

After the ceremonial speech, Clay pointed to the three people sitting in the center of the hall.

Why three?

Clay didn't know that there were three of them when he saw this scene.

He was still familiar with this scene. After all, it was considered one of several famous events in the history of Westeros.

He has some impressions of several heirs.

Although he couldn't tell exactly who it was, as long as Xia Jiba didn't point fingers randomly, the secret would not be exposed.

He guessed that the one who didn't come was Valera Targaryen, who had mental problems.

After all, Duke Bloodraven himself is also a Targaryen, so he still has to maintain the honor of his family.

In fact, Valera Targaryen is not coming. In theory, she can be chosen, but in fact, everyone understands that the Seven Kingdoms cannot accept a demented king sitting on the throne.

A king is best when he is mediocre and rational.

The nobles took turns to speak, and several expressed their support for the descendants of King Mekar's second son. However, the little guy is still in his infancy.

But according to the law, his claim to the throne is the strongest except for the feeble-minded Valera Targaryen.

But this view was quickly refuted.

Otherwise, the child's father, Aerion Targaryen, is a complete lunatic.

He was even suspected of having a serious mental illness.

He is also widely rumored to be a lover of black magic.

The way he died was also unique among the Targaryen family. This man drank a cup of wildfire directly because he firmly believed that he was a dragon.

The nobles did not want such a crazy bloodline to be passed down and sit on the throne when they grew up.

What if you are also a lunatic?

Forget it.

And so, as a baby, Maegor Targaryen was out.

Next, the conversation among the nobles turned to Aemon Targaryen, who was in his thirties at this time.

Clay looked at him, and could vaguely find on his face a similar outline to the face he saw at Castle Black.

However, Aemon Targaryen looked very embarrassed at this time, holding his robes with both hands and pursed his lips tightly.

Clay knew Aemon Targaryen's final choice.

He didn't interfere, he just wanted to watch the scene quietly.

He has understood that this dream is not so much a copy as it is the most profound memory of Brynden Rivers' years as a Targaryen.

The performance has not yet reached its climax, so the breaking point will not occur.

Sure enough, as Clay expected, the nobles in the parliament pointed their choice at Aemon Targaryen, who was already a bachelor.

After all, the weak Aemon looks like a bully at first sight.

If a cruel monarch were to replace them, the nobles would not have a good life.

Aemon's support rate is frighteningly high. It can be said that if it only goes so far, then the throne is definitely Aemon Targaryen's.

Everyone except Clay thought so.

But precisely, they overlooked one thing, and that was Aemon's own attitude.

This poor place like the school city has completely brainwashed him.

When some nobles representing the Great Council approached Aemon Targaryen and told him the news, they received a flat refusal from Aemon Targaryen.

According to the maester's code, after becoming a maester, he will be stripped of his surname and swear allegiance to the new lord.

But who in all of Westeros would have the guts to take away the Targaryen surname?

However, Aemon, who was full of maester's oaths, took this as his creed.

He believed that he was no longer a Targaryen in the strict sense, so he could not inherit the throne. Moreover, he did not want to be king.

Aemon himself came to the Great Council and expressed to all the nobles of the kingdom who came to attend the meeting that he did not want to be king and would give up the throne to his brother Aegon.

Everyone was stunned and thought Aemon was a madman.

But the matter has come to this, I don't want to, the nobles don't have the power to force him to take the position.

So, when Aemon Targaryen hugged his brother Aegon and left the throne room very gracefully, there was no suspense about the choice of the new king.

When King Aegon V Targaryen officially agreed to claim the throne, Clay knew it was time for him to step down from the Iron Throne.

The Prime Minister only has the temporary power of the King, but is never the real King.

When Clay left the last step of the Iron Throne, a strange sight appeared again.

Clay knew that this scene was over.

When he saw clearly again, he was standing in the center of the throne room, and the elected king Aegon V, now perched high on the Iron Throne, was looking at him.

There was no one around him, but further away, guards with bright armor looked around him.

Several white-robed Kingsguard stood before the king.

At this time, he heard the king's voice:

"Brynden Rivers, you broke your oath to Aenys Blackfyre by dishonorably murdering him in King's Landing."

"By law, and by the justice of the Iron Throne, I, King of all Westeros and Shield of all its peoples, King of the Andals, the Rhoynar, and the First Men, sentence you, Brynden Rivers, death penalty."

Clay was stunned.

What expansion is this?

Why is this a death sentence?

I don't know what happened, but at this time, Clay felt strong emotional fluctuations.

Of course, it's not his own.
