Chapter 323 Poor Joffrey

"Where is Illyrio? Get out of the way, you untouchables. I'm going in to see him now!"

"Your Highness, the Governor is currently handling matters. Please wait outside for a moment while I go to report..."

"Absurd! I'm the king, I can do whatever I want. It's not your turn to be untouchable. Do you want to see the wrath of the sleeping dragon?"

Just when Illyrio was sitting in the palace hall and worrying about the future, a fierce quarrel suddenly came from outside the hall, and the sharpest sound among them gave him a headache.

He knew that this domineering but irritable and incompetent voice belonged to the former prince who accepted his funding and was obsessed with counterattacking Westeros - Viserys Targaryen!

However, when he heard the constant noises coming from outside, Illyrio couldn't help but shook his head, with a trace of worry and dissatisfaction in his eyes.

Now the entire continent of Westeros is caught up in the carnival of alliance with the elves, and the Baratheon family's rule over the Iron Throne has reached an unprecedented level of cohesion.

Under such circumstances, let alone counterattacking Westeros, it is now questionable whether the Targaryen brothers and sisters can protect themselves under their own protection!

Eh...it's difficult!

Looking at Viserys who had pushed aside the guards and rushed into the hall, Illyrio could only retract the sadness and disgust on his face, then he went up to him with a big smile and said:

"Viserys, my respected King, I wonder why you suddenly came to my humble abode?"

"Illyrio, words of flattery and praise for the usurper are now circulating throughout Pentos. You must order a ban on all this!"

Viserys, who was dressed in an exquisite dress, looked so strong and handsome, but at this moment, he was angrily slapping the table in front of Illyrio like a mad patient, and kept shouting.

Just a few hours ago, he was forcing his sister Daenerys to accompany him to the Colosseum to watch a bloody beast-fighting show, and squander Illyrio's money by the way.

However, just as he was sitting in the carriage enjoying the soft breasts of the maid, he suddenly heard news about the establishment of diplomacy between the Iron Throne and the elves coming from outside the carriage!

Especially when those merchants learned that the elven army rode dragons to the continent of Westeros and formally signed various covenants with the Iron Throne, Viserys fell into unprecedented anger.

Under such circumstances, he had no intention of watching a beast-fighting show, so he hurried back home to find Illyrio to inquire about the situation.

After understanding the specific situation of the matter, Illyrio secretly breathed a sigh of relief, so he handed the secret message sent by Varys to the other party and said:

"This is the information collected by my spies in King's Landing. Those mysterious and powerful elves have now become allies of the usurper. I'm afraid our plan will have to be postponed."

"Hmph, that usurper of the Baratheon family is not qualified to represent the will of the Iron Throne at all. I am the real master of the Iron Throne. Those elves should come to me for negotiation!"

Upon hearing this, Viserys reached out and grabbed the envelope from Illyrio's hand, and then cursed while reading it. The arrogance revealed in his words made Illyrio next to him roll his eyes.

If those elves really come to find you, I'm afraid they will kill you with a knife in the next second because of your bad temper, right?

After all, although Illyrio also believed that Robert had become gradually dull and incompetent after inheriting the throne, it was undeniable that Robert did have a personal charm that could turn enemies into friends.

What's more, the Baratheon family now occupies the Iron Throne. Why should the elves cooperate with a former prince who is homeless and helpless?

After a long time, Viserys slowly put down the envelope in his hand. His originally handsome face gradually twisted into a look of ferocity and jealousy, and then he roared hysterically:

"Obviously I am the owner of the Iron Throne. Regardless of the hundreds of years of history of the Targaryen dynasty, and the other nobles who still support it, it is obvious that we came first!"

The reason why he was so angry was not only because of the various alliance agreements reached between the elves and the usurpers, but also because the elves were actually preparing to teach the descendants of the usurpers to learn magic.

After all, in Viserys's view, the fat usurper Robert, who was as fat as a ball of flesh, could not be called a good king at all, and his dynasty would inevitably fall to the bottom in the future.

When the continent of Westeros is in chaos, he, Viserys, will lead an army to fight back to his hometown of King's Landing, and sit on the Iron Throne with the support of many nobles who are still loyal to the Targaryen dynasty.

However, now, the usurper has not only stabilized his rule over the Iron Throne by relying on the agreement reached with the elves, but he has also made his hybrid offspring the apprentice of the elven lord, which can be said to be a close relationship!

Although Viserys was a little crazy, he was still a man with some brains, so he immediately saw that Robert was planning to use the elves to consolidate the dominance of future generations.

This is really... so despicable!

If it weren't for this usurper, he and Daenerys, as princes and princesses, would have already become the apprentices of the elf lord, and would be able to use magic as they please.

Thinking of this, Viserys was full of hatred for Robert, who was praised by the people, and he was also worried about the elves who suddenly appeared.

As the saying goes, it is better to blame others than to reflect on yourself!

If those elves could have appeared earlier, the Targaryen family might not have perished, and he and his sister would not have to live a life of dependence on others like they do now.

The case is solved, it’s all the fault of the elves!

"Those damn elves, I am at odds with them!"

Next to me, Illyrio was thinking about how to talk to the elves:?

————Wang Ling, Black Tower Academy

A month passed quickly, and just outside this towering black tower not far from King's Landing, countless human craftsmen were busy building castles for the elves.

Since he obtained a large amount of tax revenue from trade with the elves, Robert generously summoned all the craftsmen in the king's territory to Rohan's command, and also sent a large amount of stones and strategic materials.

Naturally, Rohan reciprocated the favor. Not only did he arrange for the elf army to withdraw to the Land of Eternal Winter after building the Black Tower, but he also customized a magic crown for the other party to refresh his mind and prolong his life, which caused a stir throughout the country.

There was a huge wave.

After all, nobles cherish their lives, and a magic item like this that can slightly increase their lifespan is completely worth spending money on.

If it weren't for the fact that the magic props are not for sale by the elves, and the suppression by the elves' army, the crazy nobles would have already poured into the Black Tower Academy!

However, this is exactly what Rohan wants to achieve.

After all, if you don't offer some benefits to seduce those nobles, how can they go bankrupt to support them?

Ding ding ding——

In the Black Tower Academy, which was beginning to take shape, a blond little lion was standing shirtless in the training ground. It was easy to tell from the sweat stains on the ground and his constantly trembling legs that his body had reached its limit.

He was Prince Joffrey, who was accepted as a disciple by Rohan. At this time, he was holding a wooden sword in both hands, and he was swinging it at Rohan not far away:

"Yeah!"

Facing Joffrey's reckless attack without any skill at all, Rohan couldn't help but sigh, then gently turned his body sideways, and then stretched out his feet to trip the opponent's calf.

Joffrey obviously didn't expect that the attack he put all his strength into would be so easily resolved, and he fell to the ground in an instant.

Thump~

Looking at Joffrey who was almost unconscious, Rohan picked him up from the ground and then took him to the shade next to him to rest. At the same time, he gave him a stern education:

"Although your body has not fully grown yet, you should still make full use of your advantages as much as possible, which is to use your flexibility to carry out fast and violent attacks."

After hearing Rohan's teachings, Joffrey endured his sore body and climbed up from the chair. A trace of expectation flashed across his dusty face and he asked:

"As long as I can make full use of my advantages, can I beat you?"

"With your current human body, even if you can master all the sword skills I taught you, at most you can only kill humans like the Demon Mountain. Compared with the elves, you will still be far behind."

"Ah? Then I will never be able to surpass you in this life?"

Joffrey secretly sighed. Although Rohan's training during this period has indeed made him a lot stronger, it also allowed him to see the powerful strength of this elf lord.

And after the noble prince was humiliated by Rohan on the ground more than ten times with his bare hands while holding an elf rapier, he finally took back his pride and began to study with Rohan seriously.

Of course, this is not because he wants to learn how to govern a country, nor is it because he intends to become an excellent warrior. After all, he has just received Rohan's education and does not have such great ideals yet.

He simply hoped that he could learn powerful swordsmanship, and then push Luo Han to the ground with his own hands to humiliate him and take revenge.

However, now it seems that this simple dream will never be realized...

"I always feel that you are thinking about some exaggerated things. You should learn from me honestly and strive to become a qualified monarch."

Seeing that Joffrey actually showed a hint of rebellious regret, Rohan couldn't help but stretched out his hand and rubbed his golden hair. He didn't stop until his hair turned into a bird's nest.

After this period of getting along, he discovered that Joffrey was actually a relatively innocent child, but he was simply bad because of his mother's overindulgence.

After all, human beings are born with evil nature.

Since no one taught Joffrey how to distinguish good from bad since he was a child, and every time he did something bad, someone would deal with it, this led to his increasingly unscrupulous behavior.

However, it was precisely this kind of character that allowed Joffrey to have a pretty good relationship with some Druch warriors during this period. This had to be said to be an expected surprise.

Looking up at the sun that was gradually starting to set in the sky, Rohan looked at Joffrey next to him who was gradually starting to rest and said with a smile:

"That's it for today's training. Don't miss the cultural classes and etiquette studies in the evening, otherwise I will tell your mother about your results."

"No, how about we continue practicing swordsmanship?"

Recalling his poor performance in cultural classes during this period, Woodcutter's little face suddenly turned a little pale, and then he took Luo Han's arm and begged:

"Master, didn't you say that my talents in magic and swordsmanship are far greater than those in writing? Then shouldn't I focus my energy on these two aspects instead of wasting time studying complicated cultural courses?"

Just a few weeks ago, the three golden retriever siblings accepted the test paper arranged by Rohan and reported all their test results to Robert and Cersei.

I have to say that compared to his brother who burned books and harassed scholars, Rohan was quite satisfied with the performance of Myrcella and Tommen. After all, they both reached the passing mark.

Joffrey, who scored 5 points in the test, showed his true nature as a scumbag. He didn't care at all what kind of threat these paper scores could bring to him, and returned home calmly.

In his opinion, these results can't prove anything at all. Does his wisdom, Joffrey's eternal emperor, need to be proved through so-called examination papers?

As long as I go back and cry, make trouble, and hang myself in front of my mother, then the so-called performance problem will definitely be solved easily!

But when he returned to the Red Keep and saw his 'father' sitting on the Iron Throne holding a bamboo stick, waiting for him, Joffrey immediately realized the seriousness of the problem.

And the queen mother who always doted on him didn't help him for some reason. She just sat calmly and sewed clothes for herself leisurely, watching helplessly as his pants were taken off and spanked.

That night, the prince's cry echoed throughout the Red Castle.

It took many days for Joffrey to learn from Cersei that it turned out that Rohan had already complained to them first and reported all Joffrey's performance in the academy to them in an intensified manner.

He said he was the second mad king!

Robert, who was still preparing to hold a party because the treasury was abundant, after learning about Rohan's evaluation, decisively chose to take a precious break from the party, drunkenly holding a wicker and squatting on the Iron Throne to guard Joffrey.

As for Cersei...

Although she did feel sorry for Joffrey, considering the envelope Lohan wrote to her some time ago, she finally chose to watch:

Madam, you don’t want your son to become the second mad king, right?

Considering that Rohan had provided a lot of elven jewelry to the Red Keep during this period, as well as some magic potions specially provided for herself for beauty and beauty, she could only choose to give up protecting Joffrey.

Sorry son, he gave too much~

Under this situation, Joffrey, who had completely lost the shame of Cersei, could only stay in the academy miserably and continue to develop in the direction of a good young man.
