Game of Thrones Overlord Conquest
Chapter 95 Different paths lead to the same destination
Both Harry and Illyrio were a little flustered. The two walked aimlessly around the corridor at first, and soon sat down nearby. They talked in low voices surrounded by the roar of the storm.
There was always a hint of temptation in the governor's words. He expressed doubts that the regiment leader could so easily persuade King Ma to cooperate with the Golden Group's robbery: the two parties may have reached an ulterior secret agreement.
At the same time, this is also the reason why he used the employment contract to recruit all the top leaders of the Golden Company to Pentos.
But Harry had already become at a loss due to the unexpected situation of the marriage, and he was completely unaware of this.
Therefore, he never mentioned the process of meeting Meng Kao, but repeatedly emphasized how hard he worked to get this opportunity.
The leader's sincere truth actually made the Governor feel that he was taking this huge credit for himself. However, it also temporarily dispelled some of his suspicions, because in the Governor's impression, the selfish Harry had not changed yet.
Naturally, they couldn't come up with any way to deal with the king's repeated conversations. A chill came over them, and the two could only go back to rest.
Harry did not lack wisdom, but was slightly slower than Illyrio. He returned to the room, and after slowly calming down, he quickly thought through all the Governor's temptations, and lay in bed unable to fall asleep.
At the same moment, several ravens rushed out of the storm like arrows, flew to the other side of the narrow sea, and disappeared into the night in a flash.
After the rainy night, in the early morning of the next morning, the rising sun shed thousands of golden lights. The top brass of the Golden Company had been to the Governor's Mansion before, but some of this group of young knights came here for the first time.
They stood on the four towering walls overlooking the entire harbor of Pentos, with calm waves and numerous sails.
Looking into the distance, under the sunlight, the sea surface was sparkling with colorful halos and white sails floating around. The mercenaries who came from the wilderness and the battlefield could hardly believe their eyes and were stunned.
At this time, the waiters who were following in an orderly manner came forward and informed everyone that the Governor had prepared breakfast for them in the dining room.
The waiter led everyone down the wall, across the corridor paved with white bricks, and outside an extremely wide hall. There was a huge long table in the center, and there was an unlit fireplace between the pillars on both sides. .
Because Pentos is so close to the continent of Westeros, the climate here is roughly similar to that of the Seven Kingdoms. When Westeros approaches winter, Pentos will also start to get colder.
When Illyrio walked to the seat prepared for him in the hall, the clever musicians began to play sweet music, and the crowd slowly entered the hall. They looked at the many mouth-watering delicacies placed on the table with joy. The fragrance spread among everyone's nostrils.
Suddenly, everyone noticed a fat black figure lying on the table not far from the pillar on the left, with a water glass and a plate of bread in his hands.
Others thought he was sick at first, but when they got closer, they discovered that his breathing was very even and he was falling into a deep sleep.
Illyrio walked forward and stood beside the silent figure. He smiled and shouted:
"Wake up, my distinguished guest!"
The figure raised his head and yawned heavily, revealing a sleepy look. It was Captain Harry Strickland who had been up all night.
"Can't you see? I'm sitting here thinking, I do this so often these days, and the restaurant is the perfect place to do it, how could anyone wake me up?"
He glanced sideways at the Governor. At this moment, his eyes were bright and clear, without any trace of sleepiness, and said:
"Wake up? Your Excellency, I am not asleep. In fact, your call just interrupted my inspiration for thinking. I happened to have a good idea that I was thinking about over and over again. Once you disturbed it, I think I will never be able to think of it. Once it comes out, the next scene will definitely be messy and completely disrupt my inspiration. Maybe I should go directly to meet the king. Where is he? "
The governor looked at the clarity in the leader's eyes. He didn't believe that such a stupid person would have a good idea, and he even suspected that he had other conspiracies. So he laughed and joked:
"I'll get him right away."
But Harry's reaction didn't seem to be amusement. He stood up and leaned close to Illyrio's ear, and whispered calmly:
"The two of us will find a quiet place to meet with Viserys later. By then, you will have a fair judgment on my brainchild."
Illyrio turned his head and looked at Harry with questioning eyes. He felt that there was an unusual reluctance or a bad premonition hanging over him. He gritted his teeth and lowered his voice and said:
"After listening to you say so much, I am really curious. Can you tell me about that great crystal first? I want to see it first."
Harry glanced at Illyrio quickly, rubbed his eyes with his hands, and said:
"How about a banquet like last time? Enjoy the king's feast and then laugh at his hopes of regaining the throne."
The Governor was silent. He thought of the attitude of the Golden Company's senior leaders towards the King last night. It was obvious that everyone had evil thoughts.
At this time, Harry had already walked straight out of the hall, and Illyrio hurriedly followed behind, saying seriously:
"Are you crazy? No one will support you doing this."
Harry ignored the advice and walked forward regardless. When he came to a secluded corner, he stopped and laughed heartily.
After laughing for a long time, he suddenly raised his head and said through gritted teeth:
"Lord Illyrio, there is no need to test me again. I am not a fool. No matter what, Targaryen, the Golden Company, the Red Dragon, and the Black Dragon, all our goals are to go home. As long as you can help us achieve our goals, we are willing to Thank you and follow any of your plans. This is the attitude of all brothers in the Golden Group. You saw it yesterday, and so do I."
The Governor looked at Harry Strickland solemnly, and after a moment of silence, he said:
"I know, but everyone must put their own interests aside first."
Seeing the group leader nodding in agreement, he corrected his attitude and continued:
"Viserys had always instilled in the princess the importance of Valyrians keeping their bloodline pure through incest. He wanted to marry his sister, and the princess had grown up thinking that she would one day marry Viserys."
"Therefore, after the king was favored by the Golden Company and his career improved slightly, he became impatient and wanted to renege on his marriage to the Horse King. The princess was full of fear of her future husband and the Dothraki. She was unwilling to marry and still How to get pregnant with Ma Wang’s child is an urgent issue that we must deal with immediately. I just can’t take strong measures, so let’s discuss it now!”
The sun shone unstintingly in the courtyard, but could not penetrate the shadow that enveloped Harry's heart. He sighed and said:
"Viserys is a complete fool. Sure enough, the more he knows, the more our plans will be ruined. I apologize to you for the behavior of the Golden Company. This is all my fault."
"The matter is now over, it doesn't matter. We can't tell the king that the Golden Company's attitude towards him is entirely due to the power of the Horse King." Illyrio waved his hand.
"Your Excellency, please take your time." Harry's eyes flashed with wisdom, and he said with a smile:
"When Viserys had nothing, the pressure to regain the throne drove him crazy. Now we just need to let him regain this pressure. I don't know if you understand the situation in the Seven Kingdoms."
