Chapter 1084 Privately Conferred the Throne
And since Aemon entered the city, including a series of subsequent events, they were quickly introduced into the Red Fort through the spies under the Minister of Intelligence.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs was once a die-hard loyalist of the first prince Helos, and participated in the coup d'etat of King's Landing. Now Helos escaped from King's Landing on a dragon, and the third commander of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Commander Xiaomei, also disappeared without a trace.
What awaits the Ministry of Internal Affairs is a complete purge, and everyone is panicking.
Therefore, the power of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is naturally frozen now, and it is completely maintained by the Minister of Intelligence.
Today's Imperial Intelligence Minister is still the mysterious Great Eunuch Varys, saying that people will live more freely after they lose their desires, and they have no desires and no desires.
In fact, Varys did outlive his old friends.
Varys is still the Minister of Intelligence for the Empire, but has quietly relegated to the background.
He has basically stopped participating in the affairs of the Royal Council, and even his little birds were beaten by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and Varys did not intervene.
When King's Landing fell, a group of ministers of the Imperial Council were arrested, including the former Prime Minister Vilas, etc. However, only one person has not been caught and escaped.
That man was Varys, the Minister of Intelligence.
The eldest prince Helos tried his best to catch the other party, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs was also frantically searching for it, but he knew that the other party was in King's Landing, but he couldn't find it.
Later, the incident of Tyrion's wife and son's disappearance, although there is no concrete evidence, everyone speculates that there is Varys' plan behind it.
However, now that Queen Arianne has just regained power, the old eunuch who has disappeared for a long time has appeared in the Red Keep.
This also confirms that the other party has been hiding in King's Landing and has not left.
The news from the outside world was brought over by the little bird. Varys's bald head is now wrinkled, but the same hobby is still like wearing bright clothes, and there is still a smell of powder on his body.
His eyebrows are sparse but they are already white. Looking at the information in his hand, he frowned slightly, twisted into a fleshy pimple, and then released it calmly.
"Your Majesty the Queen."
The bald eunuch sighed softly and handed the information intact to Queen Arianne.
Varys was respectful in front of Arianne. The two did not look like people of the same era. Varys was old, and Arianne was still beautiful and moving.
Even Arianne's eldest daughter, Princess Diana Targaryen, was standing by her mother's side, and the two looked like sisters rather than mother and daughter.
"This little Aemon"
And Arianne raised her eyebrows slightly after reading the information handed by Varys, then shook her head and said.
"Diana, come and see what your brother did."
After reading it, Arianne passed the information to her daughter, and Diana had some doubts at first, but after reading the information, she couldn't help pursing her lips and smiling.
"This is really the way my brother does things."
The brothers Aemon and Heros are really two completely opposite people, with different ways of doing things, means and so on.
However, it was Aemon, who was seen by many people as "not talented enough", but defeated Helos.
"So Diana, do you have an answer to the question just now?"
Immediately, Arianne looked at the expression on her daughter's face, and then asked with a correct color.
The silver-blond-haired woman was silent for a moment, and finally nodded.
"I've made up my mind, mother."
On the other side, the old eunuch Varys, who was sitting in the hall, looked down at the floor, his gray eyebrows drooped, and he twitched slightly when he heard the words of His Royal Highness the Princess, and took a deep breath, but still remained calm.
He has been a retainer of the Targaryen royal family for so many years, holding the power, and has experienced many winds and waves, and he is no longer the Varys he once was.
Just like Tyrion, he is no longer the little devil he once was.
Decades have passed, from youth to middle age and then to old age, people have long been different, and they have become unrecognizable and unfamiliar.
And the wily old eunuch Varys was so nervous because what had just happened would be enough to shock Chao Gang.
Empress Regent Arianne, in the presence of Varys, wanted to confiscate the throne to the eldest Princess Diana Targaryen.
However, after careful consideration, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess rejected the throne privately granted by her mother, and claimed that there was a better heir to the position left by her father, but this person was not herself.
Queen Arianne and Princess Diana, mother and daughter of House Targaryen, had a candid conversation that left Varys on pins and needles.
He even wanted to get up and retire, but in the end, after doing enough psychological struggle, he stayed where he was.
This event is enough to become a major event that subverts the court.
Queen Regent Arianne wants to confer the throne privately. Has it been approved by the other two Queens, Her Majesty Renes and Her Majesty Daenerys?
And the answer of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess made Varys even more attention.
He did not expect that someone would resist the temptation of the imperial throne, knowing that the Valyrian Empire has now ruled almost half of the known world and is the real world hegemony.
However, as the eldest princess with the right of inheritance, Diana Targaryen still resisted this easy temptation, stuck to her own heart, and politely refused the position her mother privately granted her.
She claims that there is someone more suitable than herself.
Who would be better suited to inherit this country than Her Royal Highness Princess Diana, the eldest daughter of Her Majesty the Emperor?
There are nothing more than her two younger brothers, the prince Helos Targaryen, the son of Queen Rhaenys, and the prince Aemon Targaryen, the son of Queen Daenerys.
If it was put a few days ago, maybe everyone would think that the eldest princess would unswervingly support the eldest prince Helos.
Because the two are childhood sweethearts, they have had a very good relationship since childhood. After they grew up, they made a marriage contract. Now the eldest princess is Helos' fiancee.
However, it was precisely such a relationship that Diana mercilessly backstabbed her fiancé. With the help of the Iron Fleet, she blitzed and captured King's Landing again without bloodshed, directly destroying all the foundations of Heros, forcing him to be Forced to ride a dragon to escape.
In this case, Helos, who had just been stabbed by Diana in the back, must not be the more suitable candidate for the throne in her mouth.
Then she has only one younger brother left, and that is the second prince, Aemon, who just defeated Helos on the frontal battlefield and is now entering the city.
