Egon Targaryen V, grandfather of the Mad King Iris, younger brother of the Bachelor of Eamon on the Great Wall. At first glance, his age seems a little far from the ice and fire canon, but many of his experiences and decisions have had an impact on the ice and fire cannot be underestimated. As we all know, marriage has always been an effective political means for rulers to consolidate their rights and form alliances, and the marriage of the children and grandchildren of Egon V has directly affected the overall situation of future generations.
The queen of Egon V was Beth of the Brewood family, and they had three sons and two daughters, namely the eldest son Duncan, the second son Jaeheris, the youngest son Dylan, and the daughters Shayala and Rayleigh.
Egon V and his sons
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > eldest son Duncan: Don't love the country and love the beauty</h1>
Prince Duncan takes his name from Sir Duncan, the "tall" of the Iron Guard, who served as Sir Duncan's attendant as a teenager and traveled with him (so they were true love?). ）。 As the king's eldest son and heir, Prince Duncan's marriage contract had long been made, and the woman was the daughter of Leonor Baratheon, the Duke of Windscraper, "Laughing Storm".
However, during his trip to the Riverlands, Prince Duncan met the true love of his life, and this girl was known as "Jenny of Wasteland". The odd woman wandered among the ruins, claiming to be a descendant of a former king, while the local farmer ridiculed her as the daughter of a mad peasant. No matter who she was, Prince Duncan fell in love with her and married her. It is conceivable that King Egon V must have vigorously opposed the eldest son's heir to marry such a woman of unknown origin. The king demanded that Prince Duncan choose between the throne and love, and the prince relinquished his inheritance to the Iron Throne and the title of Prince of Dragonstone island, firmly with his lover. Later singers sang about this act, and Prince Duncan was also known as "Prince Ronfleur".
When Lady Jenny of Desert Rock Enters the Palace, she brings her close girlfriend, who is short in stature and albino, and some say she is a forest witch, while Mrs. Jane thinks that her friend is a son of the forest.
In The Third Book of Ice and Fire, the Second Lady and the Brotherhood of the Flagless Meet an Old Woman with dream prophecy powers in a place called Noble Heart:
Her wrinkled skin was very pale, with red eyes and white hair. She was old, short and hunched over, leaning on a black cane.
The old woman whom the second lady saw asked the singer of the Brotherhood without Flags to sing a song about Jenny for her in exchange for her dream prophecy. The noble heart in which she lived was a high hill in the inter-river land, about between Herrenberg and the city of Rush, and on the top of the hill there was a ring of thirty-one fish beams and wooden stumps. It is certain that this old woman is the friend that Madame Jane brought into the palace.
In the last year of the reign of Egon V, the tragedy of the Midsummer Hall occurred, and the king, Prince Duncan, the tall Sir Duncan and others were all killed in the fire, but the witch who was also in the Summer Hall at that time miraculously survived, and then returned to the riverland and became "the ghost of the noble heart."

<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > Targaryen's marriage to Baratheon</h1>
The real trouble caused by Prince Duncan's repentant marriage to the Baratheon family was the fury of the raging storm of laughter. The act of repentance humiliated the proud Duke of Leonor Baratheon. He decided to no longer be loyal to the Targaryens and established himself as the Storm King. The rebellion was bloody and short-lived, and Sir Duncan, the tall of the Iron Guard, defeated the storm of laughter in a one-on-one duel, and Egon V solemnly swore an oath to marry his youngest daughter, Princess Leilei, to Lord Leonor's heir, Mond, and the storm finally subsided.
Laughter Storm Liono
Princess Leilei first went to the Castle of Windsor to serve as the Duke's waiter and lady's maid, and later married the Duke's eldest son, Mond Baratheon, as promised. Their son, Stephen, grew up with Iris Targaryen and Tywin Lannister at the court of King's Landing, and the three forged a deeper friendship during the Battle of the Nine Bronze Plates.
In 262 years of conquest, Iris Targaryen II ascended to the Iron Throne and a strong baby boy was born in Windsor Castle. This is robert, the eldest grandson of Mond Baratheon and Rayleigh Targaryen, heir to Windsor Castle. Twenty years later, it was the young Duke of Windsor Castle who ended Targaryen rule in Westeros.

In the three volumes of ice and fire, the Tyrell family officially stepped onto the stage of the power game. It should be noted that this family is not as thin as the heirs played in the play. Duke Metz Tyrell had three sons, the eldest son Vilas, the second son Garland, and the youngest son, Loras the Hundred Flowers Knight. And of course the daughter, our little rose Margaery.
Loras and Margaret need not say much here. Vilas, the heir of the High Court, does not come to King's Landing with his family in the book, and he was once crippled by Oberon, the red serpent of Dorne, during a contest. But according to Margaery and the Queen of Thorns, Vilas was a gentle and intelligent young man, and the roses took Sansa's inheritance and wanted to marry her to Vilas. But the plan went bankrupt, and the Lannisters made it to the forefront. But Lord Tywin is also considering making Vilas the next husband of Cersei.
The duke of Metz's second son, Garland Tyrell, was known as the "Brave Garland". In the Battle of the Blackwater River in the book, it is he who wears the armor of the Blue Ceremony and rushes to kill Stannis's army from the rear. Sansa had seen him train on the school grounds in a one-on-three, and even Loras, the Knight of the Hundred Flowers, admitted that Garland was better than himself at using his sword. After the Battle of the Blackwater River, all of Tyrion's previous contributions were taken away, and Garland was the only one who stood up for him head-on, not only acknowledging the exploits of the little devil, but also mentioning Sansa, saying that the little devil would be a good husband (so shouldn't it be "Warm Man Garland"?). ）。
But the real ruler of this family is the Queen of Thorns, the mother of the Duke of Metz. The old rose, whose maiden name is Olena, comes from the Redwin family of Qingting Island and is the aunt of The Earl of Paixter, the current owner of Redwin's house. Her marriage as a child was not made to her later husband, Ross Tyrell, but to Prince Dylan, the youngest son of Egon V.
Prince Duncan of the Targaryens gave his younger brothers a very bad head, and both brothers learned from him the operation of repentance. Prince Dylan, who was only a nine-year-old child when he was engaged to Olena Redwin, presumably had neither sufficient understanding nor reason to oppose such a political marriage. As Prince Dylan grew older, he found that his little friend, Sir Jeremy Norigi, was far more attractive than Miss Olena of Redwin's house. At the age of eighteen, Prince Dylan formally repented of marrying the Redwin family and never married. Five years later, he and his dear friend Sir Jeremy were both killed in a counter-insurgency. Miss Olena later married Ross Tyrell of the High Court.
In the canon, the elderly Queen of Thorns herself admits that she was not satisfied with her marriage contract with Targaryen.
"...there is no doubt that the people of the Baratheon family always have some absurd ideas, and I think that this is all inherited from their Targaryen bloodline." She blew her nose. "They wanted me to marry someone from targaryens, but I didn't want to."
On the contrary, she was quite satisfied with her husband, Rose Tyrell.
"Ah, don't get me wrong, I love him very much, he has a good heart, and he is not incompetent in bed, but his brain just can't turn!" Do you know? He fell off a cliff while hunting. They said he had been staring at the sky and had not paid any attention to the horse. "
The Queen of Thorns speaks in a funny and spicy manner, living up to the name of "Thorns". And Rose Tyrell, the good husband, was not supposed to marry Olena Redwin.
High court and river bend land
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > marriage of heir to the throne</h1>
Prince Duncan did not love the beauty of the country and gave up the inheritance to the Iron Throne, and the heir of Egon V passed to the second son, Jae-Héris. Prince Jaehaeris had been arranged from an early age to marry a girl from the Tully family in the future, but how could this girl who was far away in Rushing City be within reach of his sister Shayala?
Jaehaeris and Shayala are in love, and the deeds of their brother Prince Duncan greatly encourage them, and they decide to pursue their love. His father, King Egon V, well aware that intermarriage between targaryen siblings would often be intolerable to the Church of the Seven Gods and secular opinion, did his best to separate the siblings, but this made the fire of love between the young men burn even more fiercely.
When Jaehalis was fifteen years old, he and his sister Shayala followed the example of Jehoris I, the king of The Year, and the "kind" Queen Alysan, and secretly married away from their parents. By the time King Egon V found out, the two were already in a round house. The helpless king had to face the repentant princes again. In addition to the original Tully family of Jaehalis, Princess Shayala may have been a family, and the other party was the heir of the High Court, Ross Tyrell.
Jaehaeris II
Jaehalis had a son and a daughter with Shayala, who would later be King Iris II and Queen Layla. The union between Iris and Layla was arranged by Jaeherys, and at that time, Egon V thought that he had already broken his heart for his children's marriage and did not want to take care of it anymore.
The Jerhe Lisbon man pursues love, but the marriage of his children is not the result of love. The witch brought into the palace by Lady Jenny of Wasteland once made a prophecy that the prophesied prince would be born among the descendants of Iris and Layla. This prophecy not only led to the unhappy marriage of Iris and Layla, but also to their eldest son, Rhaegar, for the rest of his life.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > is another trouble for marriage</h1>
Prince Duncan's repentance sparked a rebellion in the Storm of Laughter; Jaeherys' repentance with Prince Dylan not only led to the marriage of Tyrell and Redwin, but once again excluded the Tully family from the core of power. As the king, Egon V had to come forward again and again to solve the problem, and he could fight with the mud and the mud, and he could not use force with the mud, and he had to reduce the damage to the bearable range as much as possible. After this round of marriage turmoil passed, everything seemed to be on the right track, and in his later years, Egon V became more and more obsessed with bringing the dragon back to this world.
This idea led to the tragedy of the Midsummer Hall, which burned down Egon V himself and most of his court. In grief, Jaehaeris II immediately faced the test of another Blackfire rebellion. After the rebellion was quelled, King Jaehaeris, who was already weak, reigned for only three years before returning to the west.
The tragedy of the Midsummer Hall
Rhaegar Targaryen was born in the midst of a fire in the Midsummer Hall, a child who had been carrying too many expectations, perhaps tragically overshadowed by fate from birth. Sir Ballystan once described Prince Rhaegar to Daenerys this way:
"The Prince of Dragonstone was a little over-learned as a child, and he was able to read and read so much earlier than other children that it is often said that Queen Layla must have swallowed books and candles when she conceived him. Rhaegar was not interested in the play of children, and his wisdom amazed the bachelors, while the knights of his father's men joked sourly that Saint-Belle was back... Until one day, Prince Rhaegar found something from an old scroll and suddenly changed his personality. No one knew exactly what was going on, except that early one morning the boy appeared on the school grounds, and the knights who were wearing armor looked at him in amazement and went straight to sir William Daery, the head of the sect, and said, 'Give me my sword and armor, and I must become a warrior.' '"
Rhaegar's transformation is instantaneous, and he turns himself into a warrior against his own nature. He was obsessed with prophecy, and at first he thought of himself as the prince of prophecy. Whether by nature or not, he did grow into a good warrior, but he always carried sadness. The "Melancholy Prince" Rhaegar was deeply attracted to a girl named Cersei Lannister. Rhaegar was the prince she was going to marry, and compared to him, even the golden James had become corn dregs.
Prince Rhaegar
Lord Tywin rejected the offer of a marriage between the Dornmartell family and proposed to King Iris II that his daughter Cersei betrothed to Prince Rhaegar, not wanting the proposal to be rejected or even ridiculed. Tywin endured the king's humiliation. King Iris sent Duke Stephen Baratheon to the other side of the Narrow Sea to find a princess for Rhaegar. Duke Stephen did not bring back the princess of Rhaegar, and he himself died in the storm in Shipwreck Bay. The Martell family, who had been refused marriage by Tywin, duly sent Princess Ilia, a thin, flat-breasted girl who became Rhaegar's wife.
The Battle of the Nine Copper Plate Kings brought a strange situation of "great unity of princes" to the seven kingdoms, and a new round of marriage contracts was brewing. Stark, who had never been very involved in the affairs of the South, seemed to be finally lonely, and Duke Rickard Stark made two important marriages for his sons and daughters: brandon, the future Duke of Winterfell, would marry Caitlin, the eldest daughter of Horst Tully, the governor of the River, and Lyanna, the daughter of Lord Ricard, was promised to Robert Baratheon of Windsor Castle. Tywin and Horst began to discuss James's marriage to Lysa. Cersei helps Iris by throwing Jaime into joining the Iron Guard.
Marriage, marriage, for a time everywhere this topic, the great marriage across the region between the princes seems to create a strange atmosphere. The already suspicious Iris II seemed to smell some conspiracy out of it.
Robert vs Rega
During Robert's rebellion, the Tyrell family, which did not participate in the great marriage of wolves, ospreys, and deer, became supporters of Targaryen, and the Tyrell army joined forces with Redwin's fleet to besiege Windshoe Castle; the Martell family, which had been bound to Targaryen, also sent troops to join Rhaegar's side; and the Tywin Lannister, who had failed to marry with all parties and had a hostage, Jaime, was pinched in the hands of Iris.
It turns out that everything is the curse of marriage!
In the canon, a new scene of marriage contract drama is also being staged, a new round of alliances, a new round of repentance, a new round of calculation of inheritance rights...
