Bab 42: 42
Chapter 171: Asha escapes from Pyke.
Victarion and Asha's faces changed drastically when they saw this scene, and they were no longer as calm as before.
Regardless of whether the dragon horn is really as magical as Euron said, these gold and gems will not lie.
The two had originally thought that Euron, who maintained a fleet of 300 warships, should not have any extra money, but now it seems that Euron's wealth is far greater than they imagined.
Euron's speech and gifts satisfied everyone, and most people began to side with Euron.
Then Aeron Greyjoy began to count the votes. As expected, Euron's votes crushed everyone else, and he successfully became the winner of this kingsmoot.
Euron looked at Asha and Victarion with pride, especially Asha, who knew that her current situation was not very good.
Although Euron became the winner of the Kingsmoot, it has not been held for thousands of years. To be honest, the authority of the Kingsmoot is greatly reduced compared to before, especially during the rule of the Hall family and the Greyjoy family, when the inheritance system was based on offspring.
Given Euron's character, he would never allow Asha to threaten his dominance over the Iron Islands.
The kingsmoot was over, and soon everyone left Old Wyke Island with rich gifts.
After returning to Pyke, Asha Greyjoy felt more and more that her situation was too dangerous. She finally summoned her confidants and decided to return to Deepwood Motte.
Sure enough, just when Asha was about to leave, a piece of news came that Euron married her to Eri without Asha's consent, the 89-year-old man who was mocked by Asha for not being able to stand up.
Soon Asha left Pike Island with fifty longships. At this time, Asha was a little confused and didn't know what to do next.
"We must return to Deepwood Motte first." Asha Greyjoy sighed.
A few days later, Asha landed at Cape Sea Dragon.
She prepared to go to Deepwood Motte with the six hundred people who were willing to follow her, and then wondered what to do next.
"Lady Asha, are we going to Deepwood Motte?" a captain who chose to follow Asha asked curiously.
"Yes, Euron was very cunning. He married me to Eli, which cut off my inheritance rights and prevented me from marrying another noble to take his place.
I will go see Roose Bolton. He is now the Duke of the North and needs to win over the people. If he is willing to give me Deepwood Motte, I will support his rule on behalf of the Ironborn, and then go to the Iron Throne and take back the position of Duke of the Iron Islands at the cost of surrender."
Asha's current plan is to unite the Bolton family and the Iron Throne, because she has no other good solution for the time being.
If the Iron Throne and Roose Bolton were unwilling to help her, she would lead her fleet to Slaver's Bay to find the Mother of Dragons.
With this in mind, Asha led six hundred people to Deepwood Motte.
However, Asha felt something was wrong with the mountain clans around her along the way. The first was the number of people. The closer she got to Deepwood Motte, the more people there were. There were obviously not so many people before she left.
However, when she saw the golden sea monster flag still hanging on the wooden wall of Deepwood Motte, she didn't think much about it.
Jack and Hector were on duty at this time. They had experienced a terrifying rainy night and were almost scared to death. Fortunately, Drogon's tail hit the wooden pillar first and then fell on the two of them. In addition, the ground was covered with fallen leaves and mud, so they didn't even have broken ribs.
However, they were afraid that the dragon would chase them again, so they just pretended to be dead until Kasa's people found them again.
Seeing Asha coming, the two men's faces changed, and they didn't know what to say for a moment, until the Senn captain on guard looked at the two people with wrong expressions.
Seeing this, the two immediately made a choice, their faces immediately returned to normal, and they secretly apologized in their hearts: "Sorry, Miss Asha!!!"
After Asha landed at Sea Dragon Point, she was discovered by the wildlings nearby, who then reported it to Daenerys in Deepwood Motte.
When Daenerys heard that hundreds of people were heading towards Deepwood Motte, she immediately determined the identity of this group of people. Hundreds of people coming from Dragon's Point and heading straight for Deepwood Motte must be Asha Greyjoy.
Daenerys brought Lady Glover to the hall of Deepwood Motte and notified Kasar's men to immediately surround Deepwood Motte and begin setting up a siege.
Asha Greyjoy, who had already led her men into Deepwood Motte, finally discovered something was wrong.
She looked unhappy. "Jack, Hector, your behavior has been a little abnormal since just now. What are you hiding from me? Where are the others? Where did they go?"
Hector's face didn't look good. "Sir, don't ask. You will know when you enter the castle hall."
"Hmph, come here, arrest these two." Asha was too lazy to waste time talking to the two men, and directly asked her men to capture them first. Anyway, she had 600 people behind her, so she was not afraid of any situation.
However, the situation was obviously not normal. At this time, a large number of wildlings gathered outside Deepwood Motte, numbering several thousand, many of whom were spearwomen holding wooden spears.
Asha narrowed her eyes and said sternly, "The wildlings have captured Deepwood Motte. Are you all prisoners?"
At this time, Asha had already guessed something. It was obvious that the sea monster flag outside was to lure her in.
"Although I don't know how you lost Deepwood Motte, I can already imagine how useless you are. Do you think you can defeat six hundred ironmen with just a few thousand old men, children, women and children?"
Looking at Asha's disdainful expression, Hector opened his mouth and was about to say something when a terrifying roar came from the sky.
"Hiss—" The seven-meter-long Drogon fell from the sky.
The sudden appearance of Drogon startled the ironmen, including Asha, and she looked at Hector in disbelief.
Helplessly, Hector could only speak up and say: "The wildlings alone are certainly no match for us Ironborn, but since you left, the situation in the North has changed somewhat."
At this moment, the door of the Deepwood Motte hall was pushed open, and two giants in armor walked out first, followed by a girl in a white dress. Lady Glover, who was originally under house arrest, followed the girl like a maid.
The girl's nobility seemed to be innate, and combined with the giant beast that fell from the sky beside her, Asha instantly guessed the girl's identity.
In fact, it is difficult to hide one's identity with that silver hair and purple eyes.
"You must be Asha Greyjoy, you are indeed very heroic. No wonder Jack wants you to give birth to a child for him."
Asha's face changed. It was nothing for the other party to guess her identity, but who was Jack? Why did she have to bear a child for Jack?
Seeing this, Hector told Asha about what happened in the North after she returned to attend the Kingsmoot, and asked Asha about the result of the Kingsmoot.
Speaking of the Kingsmoot, Asha looked at the girl not far away who was staring at her and stroking the dragon's neck. A slightly crazy idea came to her mind.
