The dinner party ended on a sour note.
Viserys's idea was good, but he subconsciously ignored the core conflict between the Blacks and the Greens.
What's more, anyone could see that there was something wrong with the bloodline of Jacaerys and his two brothers.
How could Alicent possibly give up Aegon and let Helena marry a bastard?
Speaking of which, it's quite funny.
Even Corlys didn't deceive himself, yet Viserys still refused to believe the fact that Jacaerys and his two brothers were bastards.
After leaving the banquet, Alicent immediately sought out Aegon.
"We can't wait any longer," Alicent said in a deep voice.
Alicent had mentioned letting Helena marry Aegon before, and Viserys was quite happy about it at the time.
But she didn't expect Viserys to turn around and have Helena marry a damned mongrel!
"I don't care, it mainly depends on what Helena thinks," Aegon said with a smile.
Saying this, Aegon looked at Helena beside him.
At this moment, her slightly plump, fair cheeks were already completely red.
"Looks like there's no need to ask," Alicent said with a very satisfied smile.
"Then it's settled," Aegon said to Alicent. "Daeron isn't young anymore either."
"You have a suitable candidate?" Alicent asked, surprised.
Daeron: "?"
"Me, me?"
Aemond: "?"
"No, Brother, shouldn't I be next according to the normal order?"
"There is a suitable candidate, but not a noble from the Seven Kingdoms."
Now Alicent was even more surprised. Not a noble from the Seven Kingdoms?
"A girl from Essos?" Aemond asked, surprised. "Can there be good people in that place?"
"How are you talking?" Aegon knocked Aemond on the head.
"Specifically, where is the girl from?" Alicent asked, very curious. "Don't keep me in suspense!"
"From Lys."
"A girl from Lys?" Alicent's mouth twitched. "Can there be good people in that place?"
"..."
Lys is one of the members of the Triarchy.
Known as "Lovely Lys," it is located on Essos.
Located in the Summer Sea, the island has a cool climate, ample sunshine, and fertile land.
There is abundant vegetation of palm trees and fruit trees, the sea is emerald green, and there are many fish schools.
"I know Lys, and I also know that the most famous brothel there is the 'Perfumed Garden'. Is Daeron going to get engaged to a prostitute?"
Aemond looked excited.
When he was studying with the maester some time ago, he happened to learn about Lys.
Lys is famous for its bed slaves and brothels, raising and producing beautiful young boys and beautiful female slaves. Famous brothels include the "Perfumed Garden".
"I heard that the niece of the Earl of Stoney Sept was sold to a Lysene brothel, is that true?"
Daeron asked curiously.
"It's true. That lord earl is stingy; she was captured by the Lyseni, and her stingy uncle refused to redeem her."
"What's her name then?"
"Qiaohanna Swann, an unlucky noble lady," Aegon said with a smile.
Daeron blinked his big eyes. "Then is my fiancée her?"
"Hahaha, then do you want to marry her?" Aegon laughed heartily.
"She was sold to a brothel, so she became a prostitute. I don't want to marry a prostitute, but if it can help you, I can do it!"
Aegon gave Daeron's little face a hard pinch.
"She's much older than you, and how could I let you marry a prostitute?"
"Who is it then?" Daeron rubbed his flushed cheek.
"If nothing unexpected happens, her name should be Lara Rogare. She has Valyrian's characteristic silver-gold hair and beautiful purple eyes."
"What do you mean 'should'? Haven't you even figured out her situation?" Alicent said speechlessly.
"It's not like I don't know anything. Don't you know the Rogare Family?"
The Rogare Family is a very wealthy family in Lys, whose lineage can be traced back to Valyria before the Doom.
"I've heard of them. They seem very rich. It's said that the wealth of the Rogare Bank has surpassed the Iron Bank of Braavos."
"It's not that exaggerated. At the very least, the Rogare Bank doesn't have that strength yet."
Although the Rogare Family was thriving at this time, it was still far from reaching its peak.
"Alright, I trust your arrangement. Although she is a merchant's daughter, she at least has Valyrian blood, which is much better than a mongrel."
"If we can successfully form a marriage alliance with the Rogare Family, their wealth is just the most basic advantage."
"After some time, I will personally take Daeron to Lys."
What Aegon valued was not only the wealth of the Rogare Family but also their influence in Lys.
He wanted to dismantle the Triarchy!
Then, starting from Lys, defeat them one by one, and finally swallow up the entire Disputed Lands!
This area of the Disputed Lands is located in the southwestern part of Essos.
Historically, Lys, Myr, and Tyrosh have always contended for this region.
Sometimes Volantis would also participate in the contention.
Around 96 AC, Volantis invaded the Disputed Lands again.
Lys, Myr, and Tyrosh formed a perpetual alliance against Volantis.
They defeated the invaders, and the three city-states formed the Kingdom of the Three Daughters, ruling over the Disputed Lands.
This is a prosperous and fertile land with an excellent geographical location. It's truly a shame that it fell into the hands of the three whore city-states!
Aegon wanted to acquire a piece of land to cultivate his direct forces, but most of the land that could be granted in the Seven Kingdoms had already been granted.
He might as well go all the way, put on the skin of the Rogare Family, and devour the entire Disputed Lands.
It didn't matter even if the Rogare Family disagreed.
Without the Rogare, there were still the Yugare, Daegare, Baegare, and various other 'gare' families.
As long as Aegon wanted to, what family couldn't he support?
It was just that the Rogare Family was currently quite wealthy, which could save a lot of preliminary effort.
Aegon held Daeron's head in the crook of his arm and laughed heartily, "How about I make you the Prince of Lys then, in charge of all matters big and small in Lys?"
"I'll listen to Big Brother, I don't care!" Daeron shouted while struggling to break free.
"What about me, what about me?" Aemond quickly asked, his face full of anticipation.
"You?" Aegon thought for a moment. "I haven't thought about it yet, let's talk about it later."
"I want to go to Essos too, I want to be with Daeron!" Aemond said without hesitation.
"Alright then, I'll make you the Prince of Myr at that time, and let you stay with Daeron."
"No way, Second Brother is too annoying," Daeron raised his hand to refuse.
Aemond's face immediately darkened. "Looks like you want a beating!"
"We need the support of the nobles of the Seven Kingdoms, Aegon," Alicent said softly to Aegon.
"I know, and I didn't plan to have Aemond marry a Myrish woman. One Daeron is enough."
"I just need a cover to prevent other Free Cities from reacting."
The Free Cities on Essos were basically colonies of the ancient Valyria Freehold.
They had an innate fear of the Dragon King.
If Aegon directly entered the fray and launched a war of aggression, it would very likely force the other Free Cities to join forces and support the Triarchy.
But if he took a slight detour and acted in the name of the Rogare Family, with Aegon entering as an external aid, the nature would be different.
At the very least, the probability of the other nine great Free Cities forming an alliance and jointly opposing Aegon would be greatly reduced!
