Chapter 276 The Three Children of the True Dragon

Borona opened the wooden box brought by Ser Barristan. Daenerys looked at the head inside and said, "Is this Jon Clinton?"

Hearing this, Sir Barristan, who was kneeling on the ground, raised his head and replied: "It's absolutely true, Your Highness."

Daenerys nodded slightly, raised her hand to signal, and Borona called the waiter to move the wooden box.

After a moment of silence, Daenerys moved forward and came to the front of Sir Barristan. She raised her chin slightly and said, "Sir, thank you for your contribution."

Barristan lowered his face respectfully, and his tone was sincere: "Your Highness, my road to atonement has just begun."

He raised his eyes and looked at Daenerys: "I ask that I serve you for the rest of my life."

After a pause, Daenerys called: "Borona."

Hearing this, Borona turned and left. Not long after, her figure reappeared in the small hall, with a long sword in her hand.

Taking the long sword, Daenerys lowered her eyes and looked at the sword body with a cold light, and said: "Ser Barristan, it is back."

Daenerys nodded slightly and repeated: "Rise, my Iron Guard."

A gentle smile appeared on Daenerys' beautiful little face, and she said: "Yes, it is back. You once left it at the feet of the usurper (Chapter 168). When you left the Red Keep, Green The count kept it."

"Rise, ser. I name you my Guard."

After a pause, she continued: "I hope you will pick up the sacred sword of oath again and recast your glory."

The back garden of the Mermaid Harbor Government Office.

Ser Barristan's eyes were full of tears: "The old knight has no need for glory. He will walk on the road of atonement for the rest of his life."

Ser Barristan took the sword with both hands solemnly. When he saw the sword, he was moved and said: "This... it..."

"I swear to the gods that I will loyally protect you until the end of my life."

After a pause, he added: "I will also prepare a visor."

Unconsciously, Daenerys also felt relaxed: "Sir Barristan, for safety, you and I need to hide our identities from outsiders. My external identity is Princess Layla of Summer Island (Chapter 212) .”

Ser Barristan stood up slowly. His brows that had been furrowed for several months finally relaxed, and his eyes were a little brighter, as if he had suddenly become several years younger.

Sir Barristan nodded and said: "Your Highness, your decision is wise. I will continue to use the name I used in Essos, Arstan the Whitebeard."

Daenerys pursed her lips and smiled. She nodded slightly and invited, "Sir, come with me for a walk. I want to hear your stories about Essos."

…………

After hearing about Ser Barristan and others' experiences in the Golden Company, Daenerys praised: "Sir, the knight is fearless. You are an amazing warrior."

After a while, she paused and suddenly said: "Tomorrow, we will leave here by boat, and our destination is the Eagle's Nest City."

"I have heard about the war in the valley." Ser Barristan hesitated and asked, "Has Lord Green become the new master of the valley?"

After a pause, he added: "I want to know if he is legal..."

After speaking, there was a pause. Sir Barristan bowed slightly and said: "Please forgive the old knight's stupidity. You are the heir of the Targaryen family. As long as you allow it, everything Earl Green does in the Seven Kingdoms is legal." of."

Daenerys smiled, moved her gaze to the blooming flowers, and said: "This place is different from the Seven Kingdoms mentioned by Viserys. He told me... when he set foot on Westerland with his soldiers and horses, Land, the lords of the Seven Kingdoms will rise up to serve him one after another, they will roar with justice and fight against the usurper for the Targaryen Iron Throne."

Her slender white fingers gently brushed the flowers: "Brother has always believed in this, and I believe he still believed it before he passed away. But I know now that it was a dream that he imagined. Here... this piece The land... more than ten years have passed... the Seven Kingdoms have recognized the Iron Throne of the Baratheon family."

She sighed softly: "Perhaps...the mercy of the gods does not want to see King Viserys experience betrayal personally. If he is allowed to encounter the cruel truth, he will go completely crazy."

Ser Barristan comforted him: "As you said, more than ten years have passed, and the power of the usurper has become stronger, and the lords who have Targaryen in mind have to submit or hide."

He added: "Even if it takes ten or twenty years, Baratheon will not be able to conceal the identity of the usurper. No one mentions it... does not mean it is forgotten, my highness."

Daenerys stepped forward and walked for a while before she stopped and looked at the old knight: "Sir, do you want me to take back the Iron Throne?"

Ser Barristan pondered for a moment and said: "I will be honest with you, as a Redeemer... I really want to see the world return to its original appearance. The fight for the Iron Throne represents danger, but as a Redeemer... it is even more dangerous. I want to see you in peace.”

He performed a chest-cup salute: "If you want to take back the Iron Throne of Targaryen, I will gallop on the battlefield for you without fear of sacrifice. If not, I will hold my sword to guard your safety day and night."

He nodded slightly: "Baristan Selmy is at your disposal, Princess Daenerys."

"Thank you for your candor, sergeant."

After a pause, Daenerys continued: "My fiancé told me that he will reveal my true identity to the public at our wedding, that is, Daenerys Targaryen. He also told me that It won’t take more than a year.”

The calm old knight was startled for a moment and said: "As far as I know, your fiancé is not an impulsive person. He should be very clear about the consequences of this move. I admit that your fiancé is a powerful person." Knight, but no matter how powerful the knight is, he cannot resist the siege of the usurpers."

The corners of Daenerys' lips curved slightly: "I also had worries, but his love gave me courage."

The always steady old knight was startled again. He had to give blunt advice: "I have no intention of offending. The usurpers who are now fighting for their own interests will reunite because of the appearance of Targaryen. Earl Green is not their opponent."

Glancing at Ser Barristan who looked worried, Daenerys asked: "Sir, can the usurper's army conquer the swamps and valleys of the Crab Claw Peninsula?"

Without waiting for Ser Barristan's answer, she continued: "Can the Usurper's army break through the Blood Gate in the Vale?"

"Sir, I am Stormborn. My impression of my family comes from Viserys's words. I can honestly say... I have not forgotten the hatred of the Targaryen family, but I do not feel the strong hatred in my heart."

"but……"

The hem of her skirt swirled, and Daenerys turned around, looking at Ser Barristan with a pair of violet eyes: "If they disrupt my life, when my three children grow up, they will have to pay with blood."

Sir Barristan opened his mouth and said in surprise: "Children... children? Three?!"
