Chapter 515
"What Her Royal Highness said is very reasonable. The war has led to a sharp increase in the population of King's Landing."
"Although the church donated a large amount of food and materials to help the disaster, temporarily alleviating the famine, this is still not a long-term solution."
Hearing Renice's rebuttal, the bald eunuch did not argue with reason, just smiled kindly at Renice, and continued to speak according to the words of Her Royal Highness.
Varys is a man who knows how to judge the situation very well, and he knows that it is the most foolish thing to quarrel with the princess who is most favored by His Majesty over such a small issue.
"So there are only two urgent matters before us, Your Majesty."
Then Varys turned his head and looked at the silver-haired young man sitting at the long table in the imperial conference hall.
"That is to launch the second war of conquest as soon as possible to unify the whole territory."
"Or start a public trial, conduct a public trial on the former usurper and his helpers, listen to their explanations, and then conduct a correct trial to show your justice."
"You need to decide who comes first and who comes last. After all, you are the king."
"But it all needs to be resolved as soon as possible."
King Robert and the Duke of the North and a large number of captive nobles were still held in the dungeon, where they had been held for several months.
The life in the dungeon is not pleasant, especially for the adults who are pampered on weekdays, I believe they have fully realized their mistakes, and now they just want to die quickly.
"Of course, Prince Oberyn wanted to wait until after Tywin Lannister was captured because of his vengeance, we can understand that, but"
There was silence in the imperial conference hall, only Varys's voice kept ringing.
Because now is the time for the Minister of Intelligence to give advice, he needs to take up a lot of time every time. Who makes him the busiest with his responsibilities, collecting information from all over the country, every time it takes a long time to just sort out the report.
The bald eunuch looked carefully at Viserys' face, paused for a moment, and then continued.
"According to the information collected by my little bird, perhaps a little earlier than the battle report returned, Prince Oberyn seems to have suffered a little setback after the army of 20,000 Lannisters captured the Crane Hall on fire. "
Varys's voice was shrill, and he tactfully expressed his opinion, implying that Viserys could not let Oberyn go.
"Bring the information to me to see."
And Viserys frowned when he heard Varys' words, then took the information from his hand, opened it and glanced at it.
In short, Oberon seems to be careless, perhaps a little too eager for success.
He placed Tywin Lannister in the city of Deep Cave, and then moved quickly, conquering the towns of the Western Region one after another.
Then, a fire in Red Lake burned down the army of 20,000 Lannisters, forcing Tywin to tearfully hang his cousin and brother-in-law Stephen to death.
However, Jiang was still old and hot, and Tywin suffered a little when he first faced the younger and sharper Oberon.
But then Tywin's mentality stabilized, taking every step of the way, playing steadily and not giving Oberon any chance.
Oberyn, because he had promised Viserys to conquer the Western Territory before the trial, was a little eager for success and made mistakes that many young generals would make.
When the Targaryen army occupied Crane Hall and attacked Lannisport along the Reach Road.
The back road was ripped off.
It turned out that it was the Oakheart family of Ancient Oak City in the Reach, who had always had a feud with Dorne.
Although Lady Aiwen Oakheart's youngest son, Kingsguard Alex, died in the coup d'etat in King's Landing, the Lannister family shrugged off the responsibility on the golden robes, and it was justified.
After all, Cersei couldn't have ordered the killing of her brother, she just demanded that the two Kingsguards be disarmed.
But I didn't expect the golden robe to kill him directly, which led to the death of Sir Alex Oakheart. This was the fault of the golden robe, and the commander-in-chief of the capital garrison who surrendered to the Targaryen family and was dismissed should be judged. Genos Sterling, not Queen Cersei.
Therefore, when Tywin suffered successive failures and Feishu asked Ancient Oak City for help, Mrs. Aiwen Oakheart hesitated again and again, but finally agreed.
Then she dispatched the soldiers of Ancient Oak City to cut off the retreat of the Targaryen army from behind, and attacked and captured the Crane Hall, which had a small number of soldiers.
The feud between the Oakheart family and Dorne has been spreading for hundreds of years, and it is even recorded on the murals of Old Oak City.
In the twelfth year of Aegon's calendar, during the First War of Conquest, the Earl of Vail secretly infiltrated the wedding of Arleigh Oakheart and Jon Cavron.
After castrating the groom and killing Aly's father, the Earl of Oakhurt, and most of the wedding guests, the Dornish raped the bride and her maids and sold them to slave traders in Myr.
This incident has always been regarded as a great disgrace by the Oakheart family, but these old events are of course not the direct cause of Mrs. Ewen Oakheart's determination to fight against the Targaryen family.
In the final analysis, it is still interests. Like many nobles in Westeros, she listened to Tywin's propaganda and could not accept that one day in the future, the commoners could be on an equal footing with the nobles, and the nobles gradually lost their status and power.
Hatred can always be resolved by interests, it just depends on whether the price is high enough.
"No more waiting."
And Viserys put it down after reading the entire information, took a deep breath and said.
He didn't blame Oberyn for underestimating the enemy. Tywin Lannister had never been a good person to deal with. It was acceptable for the two to win or lose.
"Renice."
Then the silver-haired youth turned his head and said.
"You ride Rhaego to support Oberyn."
The girl with long brown hair was stunned for a moment, then she nodded with a eager expression on her face.
"it is good."
As for the western side, although Oberyn suffered a small loss at the hands of the old and hot Duke Tywin, Viserys still trusted his cousin very much.
When Viserys dispatched a dragon knight to assist in the battle, there was almost no need to worry about the battle situation in the West.
Seeing that Viserys listened to his advice, the bald eunuch narrowed his eyes.
Then he took a deep breath, straightened his back, and once again took out a piece of information from his cuff and handed it to Viserys.
"Your Majesty, there is another piece of information about the valley, Lord Petyr Baelish."
