Chapter 183 Deception
Celia's eyes had rolled to the sky, but Daenerys smiled.
Ian was right. Daenerys likes handsome, confident and talkative people, such as Dario Naharis, the leader of the Stormcrows in the original book. That guy successfully seized the throne and became the Queen of Meereen. The heart of Daenerys relies largely on her dirty talk.
Among them, the ones that impressed Ian the most were:
‘I have not lived a day without loving a woman, killing an opponent, or eating a delicious meal. And the number of days I have lived is as countless as the stars. ’
'I would gladly recite to you the names of those who have fallen by my sword, but before I finish, your dragons will grow to the size of your castles, and the walls of Yunkai will crumble into yellow dust, and winter is coming. Go again, go and come back again.'
Ian had to admit that talking nonsense was an art, and his insignificant cultivation was just that of a primary school student in front of Dario.
Moreover, what Ian said was not entirely self-praising.
For Ian, who is familiar with the Seven Books of Martial Arts, can memorize "Sun Tzu's Art of War" and "Wu Zi's Art of War" among them, and has carefully read the "New Book of Ji Xiao", which can be called a nanny-level tutorial on military use. Coming to a world like Ice and Fire is a complete dimensionality reduction attack.
Even counting players, Ian dared to say that his understanding of classical military matters was as good as anyone else in the world. This was why Ian dared to sign up for this competition despite not knowing martial arts.
It's a pity that Gou planned this game to focus on the entire period and did not allow players to quickly transition to the lord stage as usual, which prevented his expertise from being fully utilized.
"I look forward to your performance, Lord Earl." Daenerys smiled and praised Ian's coquettish words. "Then," she then turned to Celia and ordered, "Bring a dragon egg. We docked at the shore later to hold a funeral for Viserys, and the two remaining eggs were moved to my room."
"I need to prepare first," Daenerys finished. "Do you have anything else to tell me?"
"No more, Your Majesty." Ian shook his head.
"Your Majesty." Celia just saluted and said nothing.
Daenerys nodded and turned to leave.
"I wonder if you have noticed that although no one taught her, she has learned how to be a queen on her own." Celia whispered to Ian when she saw Daenerys walking away.
"She was already very talented in politics. Didn't she learn it on her own in the original work? After all, her vassals were all half-empty, none of them reliable, but she still evolved a certain amount of political talent on her own. Although his literacy is not high, if compared with the people in this world, he is still pretty good."
"This is not a good thing. You want a tool who will obey you, but as far as her character is concerned, I think this may not be realistic. After all, she is now a queen, and she will try her best to make herself go. Adapt to this identity," Celia analyzed,
"If the other party is a noble girl like Sansa or Myrcella, you can only gain claim rights through them. Of course, you can completely turn her into a puppet. But what you need is her dragon. We can't turn the dragon into a puppet." The Mother has become a puppet, and it will be very dangerous once her ideas run counter to ours.
And it was inevitable that she was going against our ideas. When we arrived at Slaver's Bay, she would immediately be overwhelmed with the Holy Mother's heart when she saw those slaves, and it was difficult for us to convince her. After all, in the original work, she even forced the goat slaves from the centaurs despite Drogo's objections and the Dothraki tradition. She has an amazing stubbornness that is amazingly kind. "
"So rather than suppressing and silencing her, my choice is to teach her." Ian shrugged, saying that he was aware of it.
"Teach her? Let her have her own ideas?" Celia felt ridiculous.
"If I don't teach her, she will really have her own ideas. I'm not teaching her how to think independently, but teaching her how to think like me. Only by letting her get used to using my decision as the standard answer , she won’t cause us any trouble.”
"It sounds reasonable." As she said that, Celia covered her face and sighed, "Oh my God, how could my poor little Dany meet such a big liar like you? You not only wanted to lie to her about her title, but also to lie to her. The dragon, who lied to her body, also lied to her outlook on life."
"Yes, I lied to her. In fact, except for you and my NPC, I almost never told the truth," Ian admitted directly,
"But she is the luckiest one among those who have been deceived by me. What is this deception that I have done to her compared to the deception and betrayal that she had to go through?
In Pentos, she was deceived by her brother, who said he wanted to take her home, but instead sold her to the Horse King.
In Lazarin, she saved Mirri Maz Duur, the priest of the High Faun, from being raped and killed, but the witch took advantage of her trust in the name of healing Drogo. Poisoned him, and used blood magic to kill the child Rhaego in her belly under the pretext of saving Drogo.
After Drogo's death, his Khals fell apart. Dany led her Khath tribe all the way across the Red Wasteland to Qarth, where they were taken in by the Qarth merchant Xaro Xanwan Daxos. , Xaro proposed to her countless times, but he just wanted to deceive her dragon.
Then she turned her attention to the wizard Haiya Puli in the Immortal Palace, and despite everyone's objections, she went to see their master the Immortal, hoping to get their help.
The immortals claimed to share knowledge with her, to teach her how to use magical weapons, to answer all her questions, and to teach her the mysterious dragon language, but they just wanted to absorb her vitality. With Geng's help, she killed the Immortal and escaped.
She later captured Astapor and gained the Unsullied Legion. After she defeated Yunkai, she agreed to spare their city as long as they freed the slaves. However, as soon as Dany left, Yunkai re-collared the slaves and began to gather armies and mercenaries to plot against her.
She conquered Meereen and even married the Meereenese noble Hizdahr zo Loraq, but was still betrayed by them. The Sons of the Harpy slaughtered her Unsullied, and enemies within and outside the city formed alliances. They combined the armies of New Gith, Qarth, and even Volantis to destroy Daenerys and her support. By.
And if you include the plot of the TV series, it would be even worse. She was deceived by Cersei and went north alone to defeat the White Walkers but lost two dragons one after another, and even lost her best friend Missandei, the translator. And in the end, after she captured King's Landing, she was stabbed by her beloved Jon Snow, an old scumbag who yelled "You will always be my queen".
What are my lies compared to all this? Ian spread his hands, "Follow me, there will be only victory and glory, no pain and sorrow." "
"You are so confident. Do you feel like you have a chance to win?"
"At least compared to the panic-stricken days in Westeros and Pentos, in my current state, it is not easy to lose." Ian patted Celia's butt, "Go to work quickly and prepare for the birth of our first dragon."
