Capítulo 281: Chapter 281: Dismissal
The golden spear emblem on his chest, a symbol of his clan, and the sword and shield medal of a legion commander, reflected a dazzling golden light under the sun.
The Targaryen army had officially entered the city, taking over the streets and city wall defenses of Pentos.
Jon Connington, who once held significant sway in Pentos, never expected the Prince of Dorne, Oberyn Martell, whom he had heard so much about but was meeting for the first time, to be so assertive.
Upon arrival, Oberyn immediately relieved Jon of all his duties, not allowing Jon to voice any objections.
Because Jon's current position in the new dynasty was merely as a personal advisor to Viserys, without any formal duties.
As a legion commander with the golden sword and shield medal, Oberyn's position was second only to Count Joffrey, who was nominally the Hand of the King, and of course, King Viserys.
However, Joffrey, who had once made great contributions to the Targaryen family and protected Queen Rhaella and her children, was now old and rarely involved in affairs, except for staying in Andalos.
Therefore, Oberyn could be said to be second only to one person and above all others. The other legion commander, Bessie, was on the same level as him, but Bessie seemed not to be fond of meddling in politics. When Oberyn dismissed Jon, she did not intervene, just quietly watched everything.
She knew that Oberyn was not causing trouble, but simply did not trust Jon.
Oberyn naturally knew about the former Count of Griffin's Roost and Hand of the King, Jon Connington, who had lost the 'Battle of the Bells'.
However, Oberyn's distrust of Jon was not because he had lost a battle, but because Jon had brought a young Aegon to pledge allegiance to Viserys. Although Aegon was nominally his sister's son, his nephew, no one could confirm this.
With Oberyn's intelligence, having earned six maester's chains in the Citadel, he naturally thought there was a high possibility of something fishy about this matter.
He loved his sister very much, so he hated it when people used her child's name for their own purposes.
Aegon was dead.
He was killed by that villain named Gregor Clegane, nicknamed 'The Mountain'. Oberyn would personally judge him.
However, the first thing he did after arriving in Pentos was not to see The Mountain, because he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to resist torturing him to death on the spot.
Then he controlled his emotions, dismissed Jon first, and then introduced his cousins, Arianne and Rhaenys, to each other.
Now, the power of Pentos had been transferred to this man in less than half a day.
The Beggar Prince never expected that he hadn't even dealt with Jon Connington yet, and a more assertive Oberyn had arrived, directly dismissing Jon.
The old man of the Windblown felt that he had a belly full of bitterness with nowhere to vent.
"She is the eldest daughter of your uncle, Prince Doran, Princess Arianne."
At this moment, Oberyn had already taken off his armor, wearing a gorgeous and fitting sandy yellow nobleman's attire. His black, shiny hair was tied back, mixed with a few strands of white, tied into a short braid.
He looked at Rhaenys on his left, the girl was in full armor, a bright and fitting female armor.
Her brown hair fell on the cold armor, a jeweled short sword was worn around her waist, her dark eyes
were bright, making her look heroic.
Although Rhaenys was a few years younger and smaller than Arianne, her recent departure from the battlefield gave her an imposing aura when she was in armor.
Then Oberyn turned his head to look at his niece on his right. Compared to Rhaenys, Arianne looked more like a noble princess.
Arianne had a great figure, beautiful, and every move she made was filled with feminine charm, attracting all the male gazes.
Arianne was wearing a long sandy yellow dress, similar to Oberyn's attire, both were filled with a strong Dornish style.
The two girls looked at each other.
Then Arianne, as the older cousin, showed more grace. She was the first to show a proper smile, then reached out to hold her sister's hand.
"Rhaenys, my sister."
"I heard your name from Uncle a long time ago, you're even more beautiful than I imagined."
Arianne took Rhaenys' cold, steel-covered hand, then gently hugged the brown-haired girl in front of her.
She had indeed heard her father Doran and Uncle Oberyn mention this name many times, because this was the daughter her Aunt Elia left behind.
Rhaenys also gently hugged the strange girl in front of her. She had known for a long time that she had a cousin, and for various complicated reasons, she had to marry her 'brother'.
Although Rhaenys felt a bit uncomfortable, she was born into the Targaryen royal family.
And often had to take the lead, she was destined to be more mature than other girls her age. She understood that this was a condition Viserys could not refuse.
So even though she felt a little uncomfortable, she wouldn't be willful.
And the other party was also her relative, a cousin connected by blood.
"I'm glad to meet you, sister."
"You're also very beautiful."
Rhaenys also spoke.
The atmosphere was harmonious when the sisters met for the first time.
Oberyn, standing on the side, had been observing the expressions on the faces of these two cousins, then he let out a sigh of relief.
Arianne was to be Viserys' queen in the future, and Rhaenys had a very good relationship with Viserys.
When she spoke, Viserys would really listen.
Therefore, how these two girls, who both have Martell blood, get along is very important for the stability of the Targaryen dynasty's harem and the interests of Dorne.
"Is this your first time in Pentos, Rhaenys?"
Then the two girls started chatting, their conversation clearly didn't need Oberyn's intervention.
Arianne was very smart, the prettier the girl, the smarter.
From the moment she had not met Rhaenys, she knew she had to get along well with this girl, which was very important for her to consolidate her future position.
Therefore, when she first saw Rhaenys, she naturally showed her enthusiasm.
Soon Arianne was going to take Rhaenys for a walk around the palace.
And visit a few famous spots in the city of Pentos, the Red Temple, the museum, etc.
People in Pentos love art and have many precious paintings and sculptures.
And she was going to have Rhaenys taste Pentos' most famous specialties, the exquisitely made cakes, and the white amber wine.
Rhaenys naturally agreed, but the prerequisite for going out was to first take off the light armor she was wearing.
Arianne had already arranged a room for Rhaenys, right next to her own.
Then the two girls walked deeper into the palace.
