Game of Thrones: Lord of the Deep - Chapter 259

c256 The future dragon family of Westeros

“You are right. Cersei Lannister is too greedy. She wants to eat Highgarden and then gather all her forces to deal with me.”

“But Cersei is too confident. The Frey family in the Riverlands will be shattered at the touch. The dragon crossbow can’t even penetrate the scales of Caraxhu. The Vale has surrendered. Now the Iron Throne is surrounded by enemies. It is the best time for the prince to take revenge.”

Doran Martell looked at Jack with a smile and knew that he had to send troops. Everything was under Jack’s control. The Vale surrendered, the Riverlands were occupied, and the River Bay and the Vale would most likely be won over by Jack. By then, the Iron Throne would only have the Westerlands and the Stormlands, and there would be no chance of winning.

“Your Majesty is right. This is indeed the best time for revenge. Tomorrow I will summon all the vassals to go north and rush straight to King’s Landing.”

Doran Martell made his attitude clear, which made Jack very satisfied. If Doran, the old fox, insisted on playing some tricks on him, he would inevitably waste some time.

“By the way, Your Majesty, I heard that you have carried out reforms in the North. Is it true or not?”

Doran Martell began to ask about the issue that he was most concerned about.

Jack laughed and began to tell Doran Martell his thoughts.

Doran just listened quietly. Even when he heard that the hereditary rights, military rights, and political rights of the nobles would be taken back, his expression did not change at all, and he seemed not to care about these.

Until Jack told him the concept of the family group, he showed some thought.

“Do you want to implement this reform throughout Westeros?” Doran Martell looked carefully at Jack’s eyes, trying to determine whether Jack’s next words were credible.

And Jack just smiled and said: “I had no choice but to reform the North. I think the prince should also know the situation in the North at that time. For other places, I did not force it. After all, I still need the nobles of Westeros to support my rule.”

Not forced.

Jack’s words made Doran Martell breathe a sigh of relief. He did not believe that Jack would dare to take action against the nobles of Westeros. Otherwise, who would help Jack govern the country?

But Prince Doran still felt that something was wrong, but he couldn’t tell what it was.

But Jack quickly changed the subject, “I will ask the dukes and nobles for their opinions on the reform after conquering Westeros, so let’s not talk about it for now. I heard from Shanks that the prince is very interested in the building materials of the Seamen’s Chamber of Commerce?”

All the cement was transported from Sea King Island. Jack would not build a factory in other places for this kind of thing that can greatly improve the defense of the building.

So far, Doran Martell only knows that this building material is called cement and is strong and durable.

Doran Martell was instantly distracted when he heard this. “Yes, Your Majesty, I wonder what the production and price of this building material are?”

“The production is extremely high and the price is low.” Jack smiled and continued, “But you also know the function of this thing, so I won’t sell it easily.”

“Your Majesty is right, this strategically significant material cannot be sold easily.”

Doran Martell showed regret on his face, but he was secretly surprised in his heart. “Will not sell it easily” means that as long as the price is enough, it can still be sold.

Dorne and the Reach are not on good terms, and there have been frictions of varying sizes for hundreds of years. If a few castles can be built on the border with cement, and a few barons can be appointed to garrison there, there is basically no need to worry about the border.

Jack’s observation of people is very subtle, and he naturally saw Doran Martell’s thoughts.

“Prince Doran, Arianne is 28 years old this year and has not married yet. Even if she wants to become a princess of Dorne, she must have a man and an heir.”

Jack’s words made Doran Martell pause slightly. He didn’t expect Jack to have his eyes on Arianne.

Doran Martell would definitely not believe that Jack liked Arianne or was attracted by Arianne’s beauty. Jack was obviously attracted by Arianne’s status as an heir.

If Jack’s status was ordinary, even if he was the son of a duke, it would not matter, but Jack was the king of the seven kingdoms and the sea king of Atlantis, which was a problem.

If Arianne and Jack were together, and even had a child, it would not be certain who would have the final say in Dorne in the future. The consequences of letting a wolf into the house and letting a sheep into the house are completely different.

“Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I have chosen a husband for Arianne. Thank you for your trouble.” Doran Martell politely rejected Jack and did not continue to mention the cement.

In fact, although the cement produced in the Sea King Island has been improved several times, it still cannot be compared with the real cement of later generations.

In addition, the production process of qualified steel bars has not yet been figured out, and the use of cement is still in a relatively primitive stage, and has not played a real role.

“So, as long as you have someone you like, let’s do it first. I look forward to the warriors of Dorne meeting me at the foot of King’s Landing.” Jack did not continue to test Doran Martell.

Doran Martell nodded slightly, indicating that the warriors of Dorne would wait for Jack at the foot of King’s Landing.

After getting the answer he wanted from Doran, Jack Poseidon did not stay for long, but prepared to go to Pike City in the Iron Islands with the blue dragon egg.

Jack pushed open the door of the study and went straight to Caraxhu, who was lying in front of the old tower. At this time, Arianne was not far from Caraxhu, staring at Caraxhu blankly.

“He’s so beautiful, like a red gem, isn’t he?” Jack’s voice came from behind Arianne.

“He?” Arianne turned and looked at Jack curiously.

“Yes, he. Korakshu is a very beautiful boy.” Jack introduced with a smile.

“That’s right, he is indeed a beautiful big boy. I remember he was only .six years old?” Arianne’s eyes flickered.

“Soon to be six years old.”

Arianne looked at Korakshu with his wings spread out, and couldn’t help asking: “How old is he now?”

“He is 25 meters long and has a wingspan of 75 meters. He is different from ordinary dragons. He is the Dragon King. He is destined to surpass the Black Death Balerion. Drogon and Korakshu are dragons of the same age. Drogon is only 16 meters long and has a wingspan of only 41 meters.”

Jack did not hide Korakshu’s situation. These data can be found out by just asking in the North.

“Drogon? The black dragon of your wife in the rumor?”

“Yes, Drogon is a good girl. She loves Carax very much. Maybe Drogon will become the mother of ten thousand dragons like Vhagar in the future.”

“Each of my children will be given a dragon egg. Sansa Stark, Myrcella Baratheon, Lyanna Mormont, Westeros will not lack dragon-riding families in the future.”

“Look, this is a dragon egg prepared for the children of me and Asha Greyjoy. My bloodline is a very stable dragon-riding bloodline. As long as my children are children, they can control dragons.”

After speaking, Jack took out a blue dragon egg from the package he carried with him and shook it, and then put the dragon egg back into the package.

Until the strong wind caused by Carax’s flapping wings awakened Arianne, she looked at Carax’s receding back, she was a little confused. Will the dragon-riding family be worthless in the future?

As if she thought of something, Arianne quickly ran to her father’s study.
