He was assassinated by Faceless Men and his body became inconvenient.
Compared to attending the funeral, Redd was more concerned about how to lure out the other Faceless Men hiding on the island. So, he turned around and walked towards Dragonpit.
After entering Dragonpit, Redd found that Grey Ghost was quite quiet and did not show obvious hostility towards him.
As soon as Cannibal and Sheepstealer saw him, they immediately came over and seemed to be full of curiosity about him.
Redd smiled and said to them, "You can go out Dragonpit to move around freely, but remember, you are absolutely not allowed to eat the islanders' livestock."
After speaking, he also looked at Cannibal specifically, because it always had a great desire for food.
To the surprise of others, the two dragons seemed to understand his words and nodded humanely, apparently listening to his instructions.
Seeing this, Redd patted their heads with satisfaction and encouraged. "Go ahead, they will definitely be exhausted after staying in there for a long time."
Before he finished speaking, Cannibal couldn't wait to crawl towards the exit first, while Sheepstealer hesitated a little, first gently rubbed his head against Redd, and then slowly followed Cannibal and left together.
As soon as the two dragons came out Dragonpit, they quickly spread their wings like arrows from the string and rushed into the sky like lightning.
Their figures soar among the blue sky and white clouds, as if they are integrated with the heaven and earth.
Grey Ghost stood at the entrance of Dragonpit's cave, looking up at their retreating figures, his heart filled with envy and yearning.
However, this emotion was quickly overwhelmed by reality. He slowly lowered his head and his eyes fell on the earthen chains at his feet.
Redd looked at Grey Ghost's reaction and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing an imperceptible smile.
He is not in a hurry because he knows that time is the best weapon. As long as he has enough patience, he can always wait until the moment Grey Ghost surrenders.
In the next two days, Redd took a leisurely stroll on Dragonstone, enjoying the tranquility and beauty of the island.
He would come to the port at noon every day to check whether the hoisted Faceless Men was still alive.
On the third day, when Redd came to the port again, he found that Faceless Men had completely lost the breath of life.
Three whole days passed, and no one came to rescue this poor guy.
Redd couldn't help but have a new understanding of the religious assassin group Faceless Men.
There seems to be no sense of companionship between them, and they may even see death as a kind of merciful relief, as their slogan goes. "All Men Must Die."
However, Redd also knew in his heart that Faceless Mens had clearly offended the wrong person.
He secretly thought that if he couldn't catch all the remaining Faceless Men, he wouldn't mind going to Braavos himself - after all, House of Black and White is the headquarters of Faceless Men, and there is no way he could escape.
Before leaving the port, Redd issued an order: keep the body of Faceless Men hanging in the port as a warning to others.
No one is allowed to approach or touch this body, otherwise there will be consequences.
Redd has been unable to arrive at King's Landing, which makes King Viserys feel embarrassed.
He was anxiously waiting for the arrival of Redd, and his uneasiness and anxiety continued to increase.
However, what made him even more angry was that none of the Dorne nobles came to attend the funeral.
This was undoubtedly a blatant contempt and provocation to his new king.
The funeral of the old king Jaehaerys has ended, but Viserys found himself facing a serious problem.
If he cannot obtain the oath of allegiance from all nobles, his authority on Iron Throne will be severely weakened.
This will not only affect his dominance, but also cause him to lose dignity and prestige in front of other nobles.
In the study, Viserys was completely out of control. He roared uncontrollably, expressing his extreme dissatisfaction and anger at the behavior of Dorne nobles.
Daemon and Rhaenyra watched all this silently, secretly glad that no one else was present at this moment.
They knew that if any outsiders witnessed Viserys being so ungrateful, the image he had always maintained in front of outsiders as a "good old man who is generous, gentle, and loves to laugh" would instantly collapse.
After Viserys calmed down a little, Daemon finally said, "You need a war to establish your authority, and Dorne is undoubtedly the best person to establish your authority."
Hearing these words, Viserys's eyes instantly turned cold. He stared at Daemon closely, seeming to be thinking about something.
After a while, he slowly calmed down his anger and said in a deep voice, "Dornish's stubbornness, you should know better than me."
Daemon raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing an imperceptible smile, and continued, "You actually had a plan in mind, didn't you?" After saying that, his eyes turned to Rhaenyra.
Viserys also turned to look at his daughter, with a complicated expression on his face, one of helplessness and determination.
He said to Rhaenyra earnestly, "You and Redd must get married as soon as possible. The family needs his dragon."
Rhaenyra stared at her father in disbelief, and she retorted loudly, "Even if I marry him, he may not work hard for House Targaryen!"
I am also a dragon master, and I am willing to ride my dragon and fight for my family!"
However, her resistance did not have any effect, but instead attracted a more severe reprimand from Viserys.
At this moment, Rhaenyra suddenly felt that her father and uncle had become extremely strange. They were no longer familiar relatives to her, but two ruthless pursuers of power.
Especially Daemon, the uncle whom she once had some affection for, now became hateful in her eyes.
She realized that they were simply treating her as a bargaining chip, rather than a flesh-and-blood person.
In the end, Rhaenyra rushed out of the study like a tearful person with tears on his face.
Her cries echoed in the corridor outside the door, making people feel pity for her.
Queen Emma outside the door was standing there, quietly listening to the conversation in the study.
When she heard Rhaenyra's cry, her heart tightened, and she immediately took steps to catch up.
In the study room, only Viserys and Daemon were left.
Viserys looked at Daemon, a trace of imperceptible fatigue flashed in his eyes, and he slowly asked:
"We need more dragon masters. How is the situation between you and Laena going?"
Daemon took a deep breath, calmed down, and replied, "I have already talked to Corlys, and he agreed to the marriage, but he has one condition..."
