Capítulo 425: Chapter 425: The Spy
When Myles Toyne brought in a small prisoner, Rhaenys was engrossed in a book in a study within the castle of Dragonstone.
This room used to be Viserys's living quarters, and many of his belongings were still preserved.
Stannis, after taking Dragonstone, did not dispose of these books and writings, but left them here. He also used this room as his study, leaving many of his own traces.
Even in many of the books that Viserys had read, Stannis's comments could be found beneath Viserys's annotations and writings.
Including many texts that Stannis could not understand, he marked them, expressing deep confusion in his notes.
Stannis did not recognize these small square characters, but he could guess that they might represent some kind of meaning.
He entrusted Maester Cressen, who had accompanied him to Dragonstone, to research what these characters were.
Maester Cressen took it very seriously, copying these square characters meticulously, albeit somewhat clumsily.
Then he sent a letter to the Citadel, seeking help to find some kind of reference.
Maester Cressen's letter aroused widespread interest among the scholars at the Citadel, because although they were well-versed in ancient and modern knowledge, they had never seen such characters.
They could deduce from some clues that these should be characters carrying some kind of information.
Even because of this, a unique scene was formed in the Citadel, a group of white-haired scholars with their apprentices buried their heads in the library to search for information.
The Citadel had many books, and the scholars had a desire for knowledge, but unfortunately, after going through all the records, they did not find any records about this unique script.
However, they did find a record about the high nobility of Valyria in a book, written by someone over a thousand years ago.
The origin of the high nobility of Valyria is unknown, no one knows how this nation suddenly rose, why they suddenly found a way to control dragons.
And this 'art of dragon control' seems to exist only among the oldest nobility, their bloodline can resonate with the dragons.
The author of this book speculated that there must be some unspeakable secret hidden among these high nobles of Valyria, this secret may unlock the reason why they can control dragons.
Because one scholar, based on the records in this book, boldly speculated that this might be a unique way of communication among the oldest nobility of Valyria, a special kind of script.
He was willing to name it 'Morlas language', but unfortunately, he was stopped by other scholars.
And Stannis noted on Viserys's mysterious notes that he suspected it was the language of the First Men.
The brown-haired girl, wearing a gorgeous plain dress, wearing a golden crown, bathed in the sunlight from the window, slightly raised her delicate chin, her fair hands holding this book, reading it with interest.
She had just finished dealing with some military affairs today, another batch of grain and supplies had sailed from Pentos and arrived at Dragonstone.
Although the Targaryen army occupied Dragonstone, they did not immediately send troops to attack King's Landing due to the temporary cooperation against the White Walkers.
But Rhaenys did not stop during this time, but seized the time to build a military transport channel between Pentos and Dragonstone.
Thanks to the frequent trade between the two places, this route is considered the main trade route with the most frequent trade between Westeros and Essos, and it is not difficult to build a supply channel.
Rhaenys also received a letter from her uncle today, Oberyn's second army has arrived at the port of Pentos, ready to board the ship to leave Pentos for Westeros, and may now be on the way.
At this time.
There was a rush of footsteps outside the study in the castle, an Unsullied soldier standing outside the study door stopped them, then walked in to report.
"Princess."
It turned out to be Myles Toyne, the commander of the Golden Company. The soldiers of the Golden Company caught nine spies who were secretly approaching Dragonstone by boat on the beach of Dragonstone.
They were wearing ragged clothes, all soaked by seawater. After drying slightly, there was a thin layer of salt crystals twisted together on the clothes. They were all thin and haggard, their hair messy like bird nests.
The boat they were riding was too small, so it escaped the patrol of the Dragonstone fleet. However, they did not expect that when they approached Dragonstone, the boat accidentally hit a reef and leaked, and all the people on the boat were soaked in seawater.
Then they had to abandon the boat and jump into the sea to swim towards the coast that was not far away. Fortunately, they were all lucky and managed to swim to the shore, collapsing on the beach with only half a life left.
However, their luck ran out, a patrol of Golden Company soldiers found them, and then took them to the commander.
Then after Myles Toyne found out their identities, he brought one of them to the castle of Dragonstone to meet the princess.
"A spy?"
The girl bathing in the sunlight at the window put down the book in her hand slightly when she heard Myles Toyne's words, and her beautiful eyes looked over.
This was the second spy incident in recent times. Last time, a man claiming to be a representative of the Lannister family tried to persuade the Golden Company to betray the Targaryens, directly detaining Rhaenys as a hostage, threatening Viserys to retreat.
However, what this representative of the Lannister family did not know was that the castle of Dragonstone was heavily guarded, easy to defend and hard to attack. Two thousand Unsullied were Rhaenys's personal guards stationed in various parts of the castle, it could be said to be impregnable.
Even if ten thousand soldiers of the Golden Company betrayed, it would be difficult to take the castle of Dragonstone, not to mention that Rhaenys also had the help of dragons, even if the war was unfavorable, she could ride the dragon and escape at any time.
Therefore, the Lannister family's plot was fundamentally impossible to achieve.
And the 'spy' brought by Myles Toyne...
Rhaenys blinked, the other party was not tall, seemed to be the size of a child, with short legs and not a good-looking face, one eye black and one green, especially noticeable was his disproportionately large head.
The brown-haired girl sat in her place, the golden crown on her head slightly reflecting the light, then she couldn't help but blurt out.
"Why is your head so big?"
