Chapter 996: Twilight of the Gods

Highgarden is a fertile land in the Reach province of the King's Land. It was the home of the Gardeners during the time of the Seven Kingdoms' melee, and Aegon gave Highgarden to House Tyrell after the War of Conquest.

The Targaryens were briefly overthrown three hundred years later, and the usurpers ruled for ten years before the Targaryen heir, the second prince, Viserys Targaryen, regained the Iron Throne.

But in this war, the loyal ministers of the Usurper War turned to stand against the Targaryen family, so the Tyrell family paid a heavy price, and their home city High Court was also deprived and driven away. Arrived at Star Shuttle City.

However, the Tyrell family, which has declined in recent years, has gradually entered the right track.

With the efforts of the two brothers and sisters of the Tyrell family, the elder brother Velas became an official all the way to the former Prime Minister, while the younger sister, the 'Little Rose' Margaery, became the semi-public lover of His Majesty the Emperor.

The Tyrell family had a former prime minister and an emperor's lover, so the Tyrell family regained its former glory in a very short time.

Margaery Tyrell is also thirty-six years old this year, although she was once the lover of the emperor, and no one among the nobles of King's Landing does not know.

However, there are still many people who want to propose to her. After all, Margery's brother is the former Prime Minister, and Margery herself is of noble blood, beautiful and intelligent.

But I don't know why, Viserys has been missing for more than ten years, but Margaery still seems to be guarding Viserys.

She still gave to the poor in the name of Viserys for a fixed period of time, and declined the courtship of all nobles, as if she was determined to wait for Viserys to return.

Some people may not be able to understand it, but until one day two years ago, Queen Regent Arianne came to court, reversed time, and returned to her youthful appearance in one day, shocking the entire King's Landing.

The High Court, now called the 'back garden of the imperial family', was enshrined in the hands of the second prince, Aemon Targaryen.

High Court is not equal to the Reach, only the castle of High Court has fallen into the hands of Aemon, but it is also extremely lucky for Aemon who has just left the Red Fort.

After all, although his brother Helos got Dragonstone Island and theoretically the title of Crown Prince, this is only theoretical, not even in name.

And Longshi Island is really poor and white, especially when the few villagers on the island were also relocated, there really was nothing left.

However, although the second prince Aemon was canonized to the High Court, he was not in the High Court at the moment, but accompanied his mother on the Essos Continent.

The Empire's Eastern Expedition has been going on for ten years, and this has become a heavy burden that drags down the Empire's economy and development. Every year, the Empire has to invest a huge amount of money in this war.

The war is like a bottomless pit, which has continuously greedily absorbed the vitality of the entire country, but fortunately, the Valyrian Empire is still young enough and has sufficient stamina, so it was not dragged down by this war.

Of course, the ten-year crusade is not completely fruitless. Although the situation of more and more bandits still exists in some places, such as the Giscali people in Slave Bay, but most areas are like Volantis, Nuo Foss, Cohor and other places have returned to peace.

The little queen Daenerys led the Imperial Legion on an expedition to foreign countries for ten years. During these ten years, Daenerys's reputation on the Essos continent could almost reach the point of being famous.

The names of 'Bloody Queen' and 'Shattered Shackles' appeared on a woman at the same time, which indeed reflected Daenerys' own contradiction from another perspective, a synthesis of kindness and cruelty.

She has kindness and compassion for the common people, but at the same time she will do anything for her husband.

She received the gift from Viserys when she left the customs, and she also heard the rumors from the Essos continent in recent years.

During this time, many gods and gods of Essos collapsed and lost contact with one after another. There were even blood and tears flowing from the eyes of some gods, full of ominous omens, such as the Weeping Lady of Reese.

Although the Imperial Legion has done its best to eradicate the foundation of these gods in the mortal world, in recent years, so many ominous visions have erupted collectively, and people have rumored that these gods have fallen.

Therefore, the bachelors of the Old Town College of Letters call this era the 'Twilight of the Gods'.

…

And there is indeed a war going on in the sky over the fate of the entire world, a war between the gods, and his husband is only one of them.

Daenerys didn't know how much her actions in the mortal world had played a role in this war, but the Imperial Legion still slowed down a lot of actions this year, because it really couldn't support it anymore.

Today, there are more than ten legions directly under the empire, each of which has a standing capacity of 30,000 people. Among them, the legions that are directly led by Daenerys on overseas expeditions and experienced battles occupy five.

They are the First Legion of Pantos, the Tiger Robe Legion of Volantis, the Legion of the Kingdom of the Third Daughter, and the Legion of the Giscali Shatterers and the Knights of the Dothraki Steppe, all composed of former slaves.

Daenerys directly commanded so many legions scattered across the continent of Essos. If she wanted to help her son Aemon seize the Iron Throne, it could be said to be within reach.

However, Viserys had already drawn a red line for this heir battle, and his personal safety could not be threatened, and his three wives could not intervene in person.

But even so, Daenerys is different from Renice, who has never cared about her son, but stayed on Dragonstone Island. Renice only has Viserys in her eyes, she and Viserys' son It was like an accident.

Therefore, Helos actually worked very hard. He used his ability to win the support of the riverlands, the valleys and Dorne.

And Daenerys is very good to her son. Although Daenerys neglected to accompany Aemon when he was young due to responsibility, when Aemon grew up and came to his mother, Daenerys Silk still arranged a clear path for her son.

Daenerys asked Bessie Joyce to take her son as a squire, even though Aemon had grown up.

And Bessie didn't want to wade into the muddy waters of the battle for succession, but in the face of Her Majesty's request, she finally agreed and kept Aemon by her side as a squire.

Therefore, Aemon is now following Bessie's side as a squire on the front line of Cohor.
