Chapter 215 Brothers, step up!
Looking at the ruins of Harrenhal's tower from a distance, Rhaegar chuckled and said, "Yes, that is the Prime Minister's castle. I have been a guest several times."
Harrenhal is located in the heart of the Riverlands, and the land under its jurisdiction is fertile.
He has a good relationship with Old Tully of Riverrun. He occasionally passes by Harrenhal and will rest here for a night.
“Are we going to be guests?”
Helena raised her little head and her voice was soft and soft.
She hasn't been far away yet.
Rhaegar rubbed her hair and refused with a smile: "Dreamfire has made a lot of noise, we have to return to King's Landing first."
"oh."
Helena nodded, her big eyes still looking at Harrenhal.
Harrenhal covers a very large area.
She sat astride Meng Huo's back and gave instructions with a stern face.
The saddle is only an auxiliary equipment, not a necessity.
Helena looked innocent and tilted her head in confusion.
The little girl fell into a strange state again and uttered prophetic maxims.
There are five tall towers in total.
Rhaegar chose to believe her.
The brother and sister stood on the Isle of Thousand Faces and could see the outline of Harrenhal in the distance.
Helena's expression faded and she said one word blankly.
Helena stared at Meng Huo with her big eyes wide open.
Rhaegar hadn't realized anything was wrong yet: “What?”
“Hiss…”
Children of the Long family must tame the dragon.
“Helena, can you hear me?”
Rhaegar held her in his arms and said softly: "It's okay, just forget it."
Meng Huo neighed, staring at the driver with erect eyes, waiting for her arrival.
“Well, I won't fall.”
Rhaegar knelt down and waved his hand in front of her eyes.
“Can't remember clearly.”
"fire!"
Hold Helena in his arms, Rhaegar said: "Let's go back to King's Landing."
When he was 6 years old, he still rode around the world on a glutton without a saddle.
“Okay, hold on to your back scales and communicate more with Menghuo.”
Rega frowned and said, "Are you sure that Menghuo hasn't installed a saddle yet?"
“Brother, wait for me to fly first, then follow me.”
Helena puffed up her small **** confidently.
Even though Balerion had partially melted the towers, they were still half as tall as most castles.
Rhaegar held her shoulders and whispered: "What exactly did you see just now?"
She wants to ride a dragon back to King's Landing herself, so that everyone will know that she is the dragon master.
Possibly a protective mechanism of the brain.
At this time, he saw something unusual about Helena.
Helena stepped on one of the wings and climbed onto the dragon's back quickly.
Helena was stunned and murmured: "The horses are charging."
“Menghuo, let's go.”
Helena nodded her little head and was extremely quiet.
Prevent too many things from appearing and affecting her spirit.
Helena broke free from her arms, jumped to the ground and ran towards Menghuo.
Menghuo drank the lake water, lay down on the shore to rest, and swung his tail leisurely.
Helena blinked her eyes twice and said blankly: "Brother, I can hear you."
Helena put her chin on his shoulder and said "Oh" in confusion.
“Brother, I want to ride Dream Fire.”
Over the years, Helena's prophecy has been largely forgotten.
Meng Huo stood up unsteadily, flapped his wings vigorously, and slowly rose into the sky.
However, Dreamfire has no intention of returning to King's Landing and circling the Lake of the God's Eye.
Decades later, it still remembers Harrenhal and the Lake of God's Eye where it has lived for decades.
It hasn't had enough fun yet.
Helena lay on the dragon's back, seeing Meng Huo being disobedient, she puffed up her face angrily.
Below, Rhaegar mounted Glutton, ready to stop Dreamfire's willful behavior.
It is normal for an adult dragon that has been imprisoned for decades to be disobedient at first.
The gluttons would be fine if they were taught a lesson.
Suddenly, he heard a fierce shout.
“Menghuo, you either listen to me or throw me down and turn me into a pulp!”
Look up at the sky.
Helena stood up at some point, ran to Meng Huo's head, held the dragon's horns and scolded loudly.
Look at her angry little look, her face is red.
“Hiss…”
Menghuo turned around awkwardly and almost threw Helena out.
Helena did not scream, but shouted loudly: "Menghuo, follow my instructions!"
As she climbed onto the dragon's back again, she no longer had any fear.
Teach the disobedient Meng Huo with his unyielding energy.
“Hiss…”
Meng Huo chirped, reluctantly adjusted his direction, and flew towards King's Landing.
Helena immediately laughed and rubbed her face with the dragon's horns.
Rhaegar saw it with his own eyes and said with a smile: "Glutton, let's follow."
"Roar…"
Gluttony roared, drew a special scratch on the ground with its hind feet, spread its wings and took off.
Rhaegar's eyes were strange, and for the first time he discovered that gluttons also had the characteristics of marking numbers.
King's Landing, Red Keep.
Allison found her husband and said worriedly: "Viserys, Helena was taken away by the blue dragon."
Viserys hugged her and comforted her: "Don't worry, Helena has been in contact with the dream fire, and she probably succeeded in training the dragon."
“That dragon had a bad temper, and Rhaegar was hurt by it.”
Allison leaned in her husband's arms, feeling uneasy.
She is not a Targaryen, she has been deeply influenced by the Citadel of Oldtown and the Church of the Seven.
Have an inexplicable fear of dragons. "Rhaegar catches up, he will protect his sister."
Viserys smiled, confident in his eldest son's abilities.
The huge black dragon called the Glutton is so fierce that all the dragons in the dragon's lair are afraid of it.
Menghuo dare not make mistakes.
Allison looked sad and buried her head in her husband's chest.
She broke up with her father.
In such a huge king's land, only her husband can rely on her.
The two of them cuddled together, and time passed slowly.
Suddenly, a dragon roar echoed over King's Landing and spread throughout most of the city.
Allison hurriedly broke away from her husband's arms and looked out the window.
The sky is blue with white clouds.
Two dragons, one black and one blue, shuttled between the clouds and mist, chasing each other as if dancing gracefully.
Menghuo's vertical pupils were full of vigilance, and he swooped down quickly, heading straight for the dragon's lair built on the hill.
The gluttons hovered above, and dragon-shaped shadows loomed over the hills.
“Seven Gods bless me, my child is back.”
Seeing Menghuo return to the dragon's lair, Allison clasped his hands and prayed silently.
That night.
Viserys held a celebratory feast.
Congratulations to my little daughter on her success in training the dragon.
The next day.
A general meeting was held again in the Throne Hall.
The imperial ministers arrived one after another.
Queen Allison and Duchess Janey are also among them.
In addition, there are Rhaegar and a group of brothers and sisters.
Helena, Aemond, Daeron…
The imperial ministers, headed by Leonor, stood on the left side of the hall.
Rhaegar and Rhaenyra stood on the right side with their three younger siblings.
Alisson and Jeyne stood beside Rhaenyra.
When everyone arrived, Stephen Darklin of the Kingsguard announced loudly: "The envoy of Dorne is here!"
As the door opened, Settle Dane strode into the hall.
He first looked at Viserys on the Iron Throne and saluted respectfully: "Your Majesty."
After that, he gave a slight salute to Allison: "Your Highness the Queen."
But his eyes were wandering on the children surrounding Rhaegar.
Helena bit her lower lip lightly, looking unkindly.
Eamond was a little timid, his eyes showed unconfidence, and he stood in front of his sister.
Derlen is the youngest, still a little carrot head.
Hide behind Rega and cast a curious look.
Viserys, who was at the top, had a clear view of everything, and was both pleased and remorseful for the children's unity.
Coughed lightly and said, "Leonor, you come and announce it."
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
Leonor straightened his back, supported Lao Gao with his round belly, and said proudly: "Messenger, the king refuses to marry the princess out."
Settle frowned: "Why, marriage brings peace and is beneficial to both parties?"
“Princess Helena successfully tamed her dragon yesterday and expressed her request to His Majesty that she would not marry Dorne.”
Leonor said solemnly: "Your Majesty is a tolerant and kind monarch. The princess will stay in King's Landing and enjoy the care of her parents and brothers."
This is the argument that Rhaegar came up with on behalf of Helena.
A Targaryen with dragons and a Targaryen without dragons are two different things.
Helena successfully controlled the dream fire, and her personal value skyrocketed.
If she doesn't want to, she will ride on a dragon and run away. No one can force her.
Saitel could not accept this excuse, and his face darkened: "Marriage is a major event for two countries. How can it be changed for personal reasons?"
The Targaryens have two princesses.
The eldest princess has a high status, so it's okay if she doesn't want to get married.
The little princess was still young and refused the marriage request.
The Targaryen princess is so noble, where does it put Dorne's face?
Isn't this a slap in the face to Prince Keoulen Martell?
Rhaegar stood up after hearing the words and said with a smile: "Messenger, I heard that Prince Keolun has a daughter?"
Settle's eyes flickered: "Yes, Princess Alexandra has just turned 3 years old."
“What a great name, she will definitely be a beautiful woman in the future.”
Rhaegar praised him and then changed his tone: "If Prince Keolen is serious about the marriage, he might as well marry his daughter to a Targaryen to bring about a marriage between the two families."
“Prince, Princess Alexandra is only 3 years old!”
Settle doesn't buy it.
Rhaegar didn't care: "It doesn't matter. You can get engaged first and get married when you reach the age."
Setel sneered, glanced at Rhaegar up and down, and said sarcastically: "You are already 13, can you really afford to wait 10 years?"
A woman has her menarche around the age of 13.
At that time, you can get married and have children.
“No! I think you misunderstood.”
Rhaegar said lightly: "Princess Alexandra is still young and just matches my younger brothers."
Speaking, he pulled out the confused Aemond and Daeron who were hiding behind them, and pushed them in front of them.
“Brother…brother…”
Eamond's face turned red and he was at a loss.
He didn't expect to see the excitement and was pushed out.
Rhaegar glanced at him sideways and said sternly: "Straighten your back and show your royal demeanor to the envoy. You may not be able to marry a Dornish princess."
Aemond's face looked bitter, and he raised his chest and raised his head obediently.
He did not dare to refute his elder brother.
Rhaegar ignored his reluctance and turned a blind eye.
The role of my brother is not to force him to do something when I don't want to do it?
Aegon was sent to the Stepstones.
Aemond and Daeron were also put to good use.
These are the political assets created for him by his "kind" stepmother Allison.
