Chapter 209 Alisson's pleading
When Rhaegar raised his head, his face was as dark as water.
“Prince, something happened in King's Landing?”
Robb was slightly startled and asked.
Rhaegar sarcastically said: "Dorne got involved in the battle for the Stepstones and sent a messenger to my father to ask for a marriage alliance."
At the beginning of the Stepstone Islands, the kingdom sent envoys to Dorne to persuade Keoron Martell to make peace.
The other party has always avoided seeing him and once detained the kingdom's envoys.
It wasn't until the last time that Dorne sent troops to attack Bloodstone Island with the Three Female Kingdoms that the kingdom's envoy was released.
In the middle of the war, Keolun sent people to request a marriage.
The time marked on the letter when the Dornish envoy entered King's Landing happened to be when Tyran and others were defeated and the kingdom's army lost Bloodstone Island.
Rhaenyra's voice came from behind the door.
Rhaegar tore the letter into pieces and flew them away, filled with contempt.
But she herself was on the marriage option and had no time to help Helena.
King's Landing, Red Keep.
Rhaenyra didn't care about her and let her play as she pleased.
Allison was also stunned when he saw Helena, and asked in confusion: "Helena, why are you here?"
Hearing this, Allison summoned up the courage and said nervously: "Rhaenyra, I want to ask for your help."
Rhaenyra tilted her shoulders, took care of her hair carefully, and said casually: "If you have anything to say, tell me quickly, I'm going to bed."
"come in."
Rhaenyra pulled her long hair to her chest and said calmly: "I know what you want to say, but I can't help you."
Rhaegar nodded and said, "I want to go back. I'll go to Aunt Rhaenys to discuss it."
The sea snake was seriously injured and was in critical condition, so it had to return to Chaotou Island immediately for stabilization and treatment.
The time goes back a few days.
Helena obeyed: "Okay, mother."
Rhaenyra frowned and said decisively: "Allison, our relationship is complicated enough, so don't involve Rhaegar."
Rhaegar is her brother and her spiritual support.
Seeing Allison enter the house, he was surprised and said: "Mother?"
“She's not here with me, so she's hiding in the house alone playing with bugs?”
Allison showed a look of surprise and forced a smile: "Helena, your sister and I have something to say. You go back to your room and rest first."
“Keolen Martell is a man with a rat's head and two ends!”
The only person with a pure mind left, and the bedroom fell into a brief silence.
The stone steps are overwhelming, and the ashes of the wounded and the soldiers are shipped back to Junlin.
In the bedroom, Rhaenyra sat in front of the dressing table, combing her long hair gently.
Tormund said softly.
Keolun didn't want to marry the kingdom, he clearly meant to humiliate him.
Rhaegar loved to smell the fragrance of her hair, and he was so drunk that he praised her.
She knew exactly what purpose Allison had in coming so late.
After speaking, walk down the cliff.
Allison knocked on Rhaenyra's door.
For the sake of his daughter, Allison sacrificed his face, lowered his proud head, and said in a low voice: "Your father cares most about you and Rhaegar. As long as you are willing to help Helena, your father will refuse the request for marriage."
"Rhaenayla, you can help me, and only you can help me."
She often has to take care of her long hair.
Ever since she agreed to Rhaegar taking Helena in for a night, this little girl has been obsessed with her.
He often runs up to her and wanders around.
Helena sat at the table, fiddling with a stone sculpture of a giant dragon.
“Prince, do you want to return to King's Landing?”
He rubbed his hair, making it soft and silky, and outlined the corners of his mouth with satisfaction.
Rhaenyra glanced at Allison and opened her mouth to retaliate.
Jumped off the stool, left the dragon stone sculpture on the table, and walked out of the bedroom reluctantly.
Allison looked happy and pushed the door open.
He was fighting on the battlefield outside, leading the army to fight for the honor of his family and the safety of the kingdom.
Rhaenyra did not want what happened on the home front to affect him.
Even a little bit.
"Rhaenyra, you know the disadvantages of marriage. Helena is only 9 years old. She will not survive marrying into Dorne."
Allison burst into tears and played the emotional card: "Helena is closest to her brother Rhaegar, and Rhaegar also loves her."
She still clearly remembered that when Rhaegar was 6 years old, he went to Dragonstone to tame him and beat Aegon violently on the ship for Helena.
At that time, she only paid attention to the crying Aegon, and blamed all the faults on Rhaegar.
It was only when Helena told the truth afterwards that she learned the truth.
And, always keep it in mind.
Rhaenyra looked at Allison indifferently, unmoved at all.
Of course she knew that Rhaegar doted on Helena.
This is why she hates Helena.
That's right, she doesn't like Helena.
Because Helena has the same dreamwalker talent as Rhaegar.
And apart from her being a sibling with Rhaegar, the two siblings don't have much in common.
Rhaegar often mentioned to her how talented Helena was, and at one point she was on par with him.
Rhaenyra truly disliked Helena and her nagging manner.
Just for Rhaega's sake, he was more tolerant of Helena than the other brothers.
Allison felt his heart skip a beat when he saw her unchanged expression.
She thought the sisters would get along well if Rhaenyra allowed Helena to play in her room.
Unexpectedly, the response was so lackluster.
Thinking about it, Allison closed his eyes and sighed deeply.
Laris gave her tips on how to get help.
Opening his eyes again, Allison held back his tears and walked towards Rhaenyra.
Rhaenyra looked at her calmly and asked, "Is there anything else you want to say?"
In the entire King's Landing, she made a nasty list of rankings, and Allison must be at the top.
They are no longer the best friends they talked to when they were young.
But the vicious stepmother and stepdaughter. Without saying a word, Allison walked to Rhaenyra's side and slowly squatted down.
"what do you mean?"
Rhaenyra was puzzled.
Allison put his hand on Rhaenyra's leg, looked up at her, and said sincerely: "Rhaenyra, help me, I will make it up to you."
“What can you do to compensate me? I already have the best.”
Rhaenyra's words contained a hint of disgust.
The year she lost her status as crown prince, she fought for her freedom.
Rhaegar was brought up under her care, and her heart and eyes were full of her.
She couldn't think of anything else she needed.
“I will give up unrealistic ideas.”
Allison said: "After the War on the Stepstones is over, I will ask your father to entrust Aegon to be separated and far away from King's Landing."
“Aemund and Daeron will do the same. They will never stay in King's Landing to hinder you and Rhaegar.”
Rhaenyra's eyes flickered and she refused: "No, they are not a threat to Rhaegar."
She has some thoughts.
But she didn't trust Allison and didn't think she would keep her word.
After all, she once carried her on her back and climbed into her father's bed.
"Rhaenayla, give me some trust. I just want to protect my children. There will never be green again in King's Landing."
Allison took Rhaenyra's hand and begged.
Rhaenyra did not answer, but glanced at her green dress.
If you are really determined to disband and withdraw from the competition, you should not wear a green dress to see her.
Allison noticed the look in her eyes and reacted immediately.
He looked at the dressing table, took out a pair of scissors from the drawer, and cut the sleeves and skirt corners.
“That's enough, don't let me act here.”
Rhaenyra was shocked and stopped her movement.
"Rhaenayla, Hightower is a name of honor, and I will never have any illusions about it again."
Allison dropped the scissors and took out a folded book page from his sleeve.
Rhaenyra was stunned when she saw the inexplicably familiar pages.
Reaching out to take the page, he opened the folded part to reveal the words and patterns inside.
Chance records Nymeria's marriage to her first husband, Morse Martell.
There are also pictures of the wedding scene.
It is the missing page in "The Voyage of Ten Thousand Ships".
Rhaenyra stared at the page without blinking and asked in surprise: "You still have this page?"
This was before she was chosen as the heir.
The books that Rhaegar read before his mother was still alive.
At that time, she and Allison were reading a book together.
Allison always has trouble remembering information from books.
Whenever she felt irritable one day, she would tear out the pages of the book to strengthen Allison's memory.
Time flies and 13 years have passed.
Rhaenyra's eyebrows were soothing as she rubbed the pages of the book: “At first glance, this page seems like yesterday.”
“Rhaenaela, I know you hate me, and I have done many things to make you sorry.”
Allison's eyes were red and he choked up: "But I have no choice. I am a victim of my family."
Rhaenyra lifted her eyes from the page and looked at Allison.
“In my heart, you have always been my good friend, just like this page I have always kept.”
Allison squeezed Rhaenyra's hand tightly and said sincerely: "Help my daughter, don't let her repeat my life."
Rhaenyra pursed her lips and looked back at the page in her hand.
He thought for a while and said softly: "Let me think about it carefully. You can go out."
“Rhaenaela…”
Alison still wanted to plead.
"go out!"
Rhaenyra interrupted directly, her tone serious.
She recalled the good old days and didn't want the woman in front of her to ruin the image of her best friend.
“Okay, think about it slowly.”
Allison stood up and walked out of the bedroom, turning back step by step.
boom-
The door is closed.
Allison leaned against the door and took a deep breath to relieve the feeling of shame and powerlessness that spread throughout his body.
In the bedroom.
Rhaenyra crossed one of her white legs and held the pages in her hands to read over and over again.
Half a sound.
Rhaenyra sighed, put down the page, and took out pen and paper.
She wasn't doing it for Allison, and she wasn't doing it for Helena.
She is remembering the good things that have passed away.
Time to get back on track.
Two days later, on the narrow sea.
Several large ships were drifting on the sea, hung with canvases painted with three red dragons and seahorses.
A cabin door.
Rhaegar and Rhaenys talked softly: "Aunt, Lord Corlys hasn't gotten better yet?"
Rhaenys shook her head and sighed: "I still have a high fever. The maester said the wound was inflamed."
"Don't worry too much. Lord Corliss is strong and will be fine."
Rhaegar comforted him softly and said, "I'll come see him later."
Rhaenys nodded, turned and walked into the cabin.
How could she not be worried?
She and her husband had children, lived together for decades, and had a deep relationship.
In this era of underdeveloped medical care, high fever and wound inflammation are extremely fatal conditions.
Rhaegar turned and left without saying anything else.
He was considering whether to treat Corliss with an ouroboros.
