I Became the Mother of Dragons

Chapter 112



      Whitebeard finally understood why Dany is called "The Unburnt" because she really doesn't burn.

She earned enough tears and admiration from the public for her "flogging" yesterday morning, and Queen Dany was almost advanced to Saint Dany the Blessed – unfortunately, there is no Septon of The Seven here.

Everyone in the city, no matter the new Small folk, the Ghis commoners, or Ghis nobles, respect her.

As soon as the news spread outside the city, more than a dozen large estate owners closest to the city announced their surrender.

Because in the process of Queen Dany's personal deification, the "Queen's legal code" formulated by her has also become the law to follow for all.

The Queen made it infinitely holy and majestic with blood.

It can be said that in the 10,000-year history of this world, there has never been a legal code that has been so wholeheartedly accepted by the public, and filled with awe on the day of its birth.

That's Dany's main purpose.

She, who has the history of Earth at her behest, has too many means and routines to gain the respect and admiration of the people.

The core purpose of the 50 Whips yesterday is to promote the legal code. As long as her legal code is quickly known and accepted by the public, Astapor will be able to settle down in the shortest time, supported by her burden of the cornerstone.

Dany doesn't forget that there are Yunkai and Meereen to the north, New Ghis to the south, Qarth to the east, and Volantis to the west.

Those city-states rely on the slave trade to maintain their prosperity, and they will not easily let go of the "abnormal" Dany.

Compared to these enemies, the price of 50 whips is too low.

No, she spent the night in the charcoal fire last night. When she awoke the next morning, all the scars were scabbed over. In a few days, not only will the wounds be completely recovered, but not even a trace of scars will be left.

Whitebeard, who saw the Queen's fire bath for the first time, was horrified, and kept mumbling: Dragons, Dragons, those Mad Kings weren't mad, it turned out that they were really being reborn in the fire!

He thought about it all night, then this morning, he came to Dany, Kneeled, and said, "Queen Daenerys, Your Majesty, I have wish to reveal something to you."

At the top of the pyramid in the garden, under the shadow of the Fruit Trees, a soft couch stood, and there Dany lay on it, leisurely flipping through a thick book.

The salty sea breeze blowing from the sea in the distance, mixed with the sweet fragrance of apples overhead, and the faint and elegant smell of pansies and cosmos next to it, deduced an intoxicating vitality around Dany.

"What seems to be the matter Ser Whitebeard?" Dany didn't take her eyes off the book.

After taking full control of the 18 pyramids and the Temple of the Graces, she moved all the books – as long as they did not repeat, no matter what the text or content was – into the Great Pyramid under her.

So, in this era before printing, Dany had a huge and extravagant library.

There are more than 300 books…

What she is reading now is a history book, the author describes the causes of the Ghis from the perspective of the Ghis people. The Five Great Wars of the Fall of the Empire, the National War with the Valyrians.

Through this relatively objective and impartial history book, Dany determined one thing, the Ghis Empire five thousand years ago was not Egypt, but more like Rome.

In its Harpy logo, the claws are not slave chains at all, but golden lightning, which have different meanings.

The former Ghis Empire can be regarded as a great and splendid civilization, but after the Valyrian destroyed the Ghis capital (Old Ghis), the Ghis people were completely degraded – do not blame them, the original existence of Slaver's Bay The purpose is to cultivate quality slaves for Valyrian, bed slaves, scholars, stewards, gardeners, servants, etc.

The Ghis people do not have the right to choose their own development.

"Your Majesty…" Seeing that Dany was still obsessed with the book, Whitebeard called out again.

"I'm listening, Ser Whitebeard."

"I-...I have lied to you my Queen." He lowered his head and sighed.

This time Dany became interested, put the bookmark in the pages and closed the book. Looking back at the older man who was kneeling on the ground, and asked, "What did you lie to me of?"

"My name is not Arstan Whitebeard," the old man hesitated with a hint of pride on his visage, "my true name is Barristan Selmy."

Dany looked at him strangely, wondering why at this time he decided to reveal his identity. Nodding, she said softly, "I had guessed you were hiding your identity, but I didn't know it was Ser Barristan the Bold.

Viserys had told me much of Westeros' Legendary stories, of which your deeds occupy a lot of ground. Most of them surpassed White Bull, second only to the Sword of the Morning Arthur Dayne."

Dany's reaction left the older man both disappointed and in relief.

Although Her Majesty didn't show the ecstatic, shocked look that she should have when meeting a character of renown, she didn't get angry because of his surrender to the Usurper.

Barristan breathed a sigh of relief and said in a slow voice: "His Royal Highness the Prince is too famous. It was Ser Gerold Hightower (White Bull) who put on the white robe for me. He was the renowned Captain of my lifetime, and Ser Dayne's swordsmanship is beyond my reach."

"Haha…" Dany chuckled, looking at him oddly, and said, "If Viserys was here, he wouldn't be so calm when talking to you, he would immediately have the guards drag you down and hang you.

In those past ten years, he never said a good word of you, and every time he mentioned White Bull or the Swords of those Legendary Kingsguards he would curse you."

"Your Majesty, I…I am ashamed! I have tarnished my honor and dimmed the glory of the Kingsguard." The old man dipped his head immediately and was so ashamed that he wanted to find a place to hide away.

"Ser Selmy, please stand." Dany removed the light smile from her face and said resolutely: "The facts in front of me are far better than any rumors – even if those rumors spread by millions of people seem to be truth, today, I have clearly witnessed your noble character, extraordinary wisdom, and martial skills."

The older man did not get up, but lowered his head and choked: "Your Majesty, your generosity makes me more and more ashamed."

It is to be generous enough to make you ashamed, otherwise, how can loyalty be improved?

Dany said seriously: "I am not generous, what you have done before is enough to have you straighten your back and explain your purpose to me…

Ser Barristan, why did you run away? You wouldn't help the Usurper to assassinate me, would you?"

"No, I have never intended to hurt you." Whitebeard immediately waved his hand rushedly and said quickly: "My white robe has been taken away by King Joffrey, and am never to serve those in King's Landing again."

"Robert's heir Joffrey took off your mantle? Is it, not that being a Kingsguard is a lifelong path? What does he plan to do? Were you on the wrong side of the Game of Thrones?" Dany asked curiously.

In The Game of Thrones, Ser Barristan didn't have many roles, and those roles were not clear enough. Her memory of him has long been blurred.

"A Kingsguard dedicates his own life to his King, how can there be a situation where he is on the wrong side?" Barristan shook his head and smiled bitterly.

Whether a King is smart or mediocre, benevolent or cruel, wise or mad, a Kingsguard devotes all their loyalty to them.

"House Clegane is the Lannister's best and most ferocious hound. Gregor Clegane, known as 'The Mountain', is Lord Tywin's, first man. His younger brother Sandor Clegane is called 'the Hound', and is a guard under Joffrey.

After the wicked boy boarded the Iron Throne, he hoped that his dog would be clothed in white.

And Queen Cersei wanted her younger brother, 'the Kingslayer' Jaime Lannister, to become the Kingsguard's Captain.

Getting rid of me, the mother and son's wishes were easily fulfilled." Whitebeard said sadly.

"Putting it that way, if they had kept you as Capitan of the Kingsguards, you'd keep serving them and give them your loyalty?" Dany asked with a brow raised.

"I do not wish to lie to you, if Joffrey on the Iron Throne hadn't stripped me of my position, I would probably have stayed in King's Landing to serve the King, and it makes me ashamed to admit that."

Speaking of this, he lifts his head and stares at Dany with sad eyes, "Your Majesty, please understand that the Kingsguard was born with King Aegon I, and its fundamental duty is to The King on the Iron Throne.

The change of Dynasty is the first time for Westeros, and Robert Baratheon also has Dragon blood, his grandmother is Princess Rhaelle, and Princess Rhaelle is was your Aunt, speaking of which you and Robert are cousins."

This is a bit tricky…

"I see, Ser you are a Knight who regards honor as his life, and allegiance to the Iron Throne is the greatest honor of all Kingsguard." Dany nods "After letting go of his betrayal, she asked: "So what are your plans now?"

"Your Majesty, I am enlightened!" said the old man seriously.

Dany's mouth felt sour: "What is your enlightenment?"

"When Joffrey took off the white cloak that Ser White Bull had tied around my shoulders and sent someone to kill me on the same day when I was alone, my heart and mind seemed to be covered with fog – how did all this happen, and why?"

The tall and strong Barristan had a look of reminiscence on his face, and said in a loss: "I grew a beard to disguise my identity, entered the Great Sept of Baelor, seeking answers from The Seven…

From your father to Usurper Robert, to the evil and cruel Joffrey, I thought a little bit, what did I do with them?

Finally, I have a clear understanding, once I put on a white robe, I will be Kingsguard for life, but this time I must find a true King."

"Am I your first subject?" Dany looked sideways at him.

"It's not even an investigation. When Illyrio told me you had hatched three Dragons, I decided to dedicate my life to you."

Is this your realization?

Because I have Dragons, and Dragons are invincible, the most hopeful to end the troubled times and unite the Seven Kingdoms again?

Thank you for going to the Great Sept of Baelor to pray for so long.

"Why were you hiding your identity?" she asked again.

Ser Barristan's eyes widened, he looked around, and said solemnly, "Because you have a King's Landing spie by your side, you and your brother are actually being watched all the time.

As the Capitan of the Kingsguard, I am also a member of the House of Lords and am eligible to participate in all Small Councils, open or secret.

I have heard Varys report to Robert hundreds of times over you siblings over the past 14 years

Which Archon hosted you, which sellsword group did your brother have contact with, and every promise made by Prince Viserys to the big Free Cities merchants in order to restore the Kingdom…..

Even every woman the Prince had sex with, even the day you had your menarche, was reported in detail to King Robert and his Chancellor."
