Chapter 216 The tacit understanding between siblings
Settel looked at the two young Targaryens, his expression getting uglier.
His task is to help Prince Keolan marry a Targaryen princess.
It's not about marrying off one's own princess.
Of course, leaving aside the relationship between the two countries.
It is still acceptable to marry Rhaegar Targaryen as the crown prince.
However, the marriage partner is a prince with no real power, so it is obviously not within the scope of consideration.
After pondering for a moment, Settle controlled his temper: "Prince, Prince Keolun wants to ask for a princess, not to marry a princess."
"oh?"
Rega pretended to be surprised: "Didn't you just say that when it comes to the marriage between the two countries, how can it be hindered by personal factors?"
“Prince, Princess Alexandra has no plans to marry outside the family for the time being.”
Holding the letter with trembling palms, Settle said in a panic: "You robbed my raven?"
Settel's face changed slightly, and the looks from the people around him made him feel like a thorn in his back.
Setel looked panic-stricken, but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He saw that his eldest brother was deliberately making things difficult for the envoy of Dorne.
Stephen Darklin of the Kingsguard stepped forward in response and caught the panicked Settle.
Grand Maester Melos frowned and said slowly: "Dorn has no intention of easing relations with the kingdom. Will he drive the envoy out of the country?"
Otto watched the scene as a spectator, frowning slightly.
How could Settle not see the problem that a 4-year-old child could see.
He thinks so, but some people disagree.
Rhaegar raised his eyebrows and looked sideways at Rhaenyra.
He was a raven secretly released, but he was actually intercepted.
Rhaegar sneered and took out a letter from his sleeve.
"What?"
The Dornish people are really incredibly arrogant.
Finance Minister Linman Bisbury came out, an angry look appeared on his old cheeks, and said angrily: "Your Majesty, Prince Martell is fooling the kingdom, it is extremely shameless."
Saitel couldn't believe his ears and quickly grabbed the letter and checked the contents.
Then cooperate and play tricks on each other.
Derlan glanced at him and patted his chest like a brat.
There are also objections to marriage.
The outcome of deportation is not too bad.
The veil of hypocrisy was revealed, Settle felt extremely nervous and explained: "Your Majesty, please forgive me for being rude, but I did come with the expectation of marriage."
Leonor immediately scolded him with unabashed contempt.
Lega held on tightly, playing with the taste: "My two younger brothers are of the right age and can afford to wait."
Setel was stunned for a moment, and a bad feeling arose in his heart.
Hands of nature do not like Dorne.
“The two Targaryen princesses refused to marry and insulted Prince Keoron!”
Rhaenyra took the letter, walked towards him, and said contemptuously: "You don't need me to read out the letter you sent back to Sunspear, right?"
After a cursory glance, his vision suddenly went dark and he confirmed that it was his own message.
He is from the Reach and is the Earl of Hive City.
Viserys read the contents of the letter and said solemnly: "Messenger, neither Keorun nor you are sincere enough!"
Settle declined: "When I came, Prince Keoulun didn't mention this matter. I can't make the decision."
At least there is still a small life left.
The letter contained some insignificant information.
Viserys heard what he said and felt it was justified, and cursed: "The envoy of Dorne has impure motives, drag him out."
Rhaegar's smile faded and he asked: "Who is the unintentional marriage partner? Doesn't the envoy know clearly?"
And a disparaging assessment of Viserys himself.
“Shut up, you scheming Dornishman!”
The already dark skin became even darker, and he said angrily: "Since your Majesty and the prince have no intention of marrying Dorne, I will report the truth to Prince Keolen."
“It's okay, we can discuss it slowly.”
Settle was indignant.
“Haha, look what this is.”
Rhaenyra turned her head knowingly.
The two of them looked at each other and saw dissatisfaction in each other's eyes.
Come to get married with evil intentions, and want to leave after being discovered.
How can there be such a good thing in the world?
Lega had a cold face, a searching look flashed in his eyes.
Rhaenyra lowered her eyes and nodded slightly.
it is more than words.
Setel was being led out when a voice called to stop.
"etc!"
Rhaegar's eyes flashed with gloom, and he said: "Whose territory do you think you are coming to rule? You have evil intentions and want to escape unscathed."
“Prince, I didn't mean to offend.”
Setel was suddenly frightened and begged for mercy.
Rhaegar was unmoved: "But you have offended."
As he spoke, he approached the other party with a cold expression.
Viserys did not want to cause bloodshed and reminded: "Rhaegar, he is the messenger, just drive him away."
“Father, the Dornish are enemies, and no mercy should be shown to them.”
Rhaegar disagreed and pulled out the dragon claw from his waist.
Looking at the confused Aemond and Daeron, he said seriously: "Watch, I will only demonstrate how the Targaryen men solve the problem."
The scene was silent.
Viserys realized something was wrong and yelled: "Rhaegar, what are you going to do!"
Rhaegar turned a deaf ear and motioned the Kingsguard to retreat with his eyes.
“No! I am the messenger...”
Seth was so frightened that he broke free from the restraints of the Kingsguard and ran away.
“When Dorne sent out troops to attack the Stepstones, did you ever think you would die?”
Rhaegar whispered softly, swung his sword with a cold light, and cut off half of the opponent's head.
Half of the head fell sideways from the body to the ground, and colorful filth splashed out.
The mutilated body shook a bit and fell down while still running forward.
"ah!…"
A **** scene happened in front of his eyes, Allison let out a low cry, his face looked grim.
Aemond and Daeron stood there blankly, looking up at the back of their eldest brother Rhaegar.
Rhaegar turned around, lifted up one corner of his clothes and wiped the blood-stained sword blade, and said calmly: "Have you learned it?"
“Gulu...” Aemond swallowed his saliva and looked at Rhaegar's eyes with a mixture of fear and admiration.
Daeron was still young. He closed his eyes in fear, lowered his head and huddled in Aemond's arms.
Rhaegar glanced between them, noticing the unusual Helena.
Helena's eyes were wide open, full of excitement and longing, and she subconsciously took a step closer to Rhaegar.
She turned a blind eye to the blood and had no fear at all.
I thought secretly in my heart: "Sure enough, the dragon will bring people courage!"
It wasn't just the Targaryen brats who were affected.
The former ministers changed their colors, and they did not expect that the prince said that the killer would be killed.
Otto frowned deeply and lowered his head to hide his expression.
He saw the shadow of Daemon in Rhaegar.
He hates Daemon.
“Rhaegar, look what a good thing you have done!”
Viserys stood up angrily and pointed at the body lying in a pool of blood.
The two countries are at war without cutting off the envoys.
Killing the messenger at will would not anger Keoron Martell.
Rhaegar sheathed his sword and said seriously: "Father, Dorne is involved in the battle for the Stepstone Islands, and a battle with the kingdom is inevitable."
Viserys angrily rebuked: "Then you should let the messenger go back instead of killing him in public!"
“The Dornish people are not as trustworthy as we are.”
Rhaegar hung his head like a child who had made a mistake.
Historically, many envoys and captives were killed by Dorne.
Can't even count them.
"you…"
Viserys was speechless for a moment, turned to look at the Kingsguard, and cursed: "Why don't you take the body out quickly and wait for it to dry?"
If you can't succeed in the eldest son, then find an unlucky guy to vent your anger on.
Stephen Duckling was so scolded that he could not lift his head, and his already premature face turned into embarrassment.
“The meeting is dismissed!”
Viserys was so angry that he waved his hands and walked away.
Others looked at each other and followed him out of the hall.
No one wants to be bored now.
Rhaegar shrugged, not regretting it.
He has long wanted to kill the Dornish envoy.
“I'll go and apologize to my father later.”
Rhaenyra took his hand and whispered a reminder.
She was also responsible for killing the Dornish envoy.
Rhaegar smiled, and that was exactly what he meant.
My father is mentally fragile and often falls into self-doubt.
Jenny came over, naturally took Rhaegar's other arm, and said softly: "How about Guoqian accompanying me to the dragon's lair? I really like that young dragon named Blizzard."
“Get out of the way, Jenny!”
Rhaenyra's eyes widened, and the words came out from between her teeth.
Jenny smiled bitterly and turned to hold her friend's arm.
After lunch.
Rhaegar went to his father to apologize, but was scolded by Viserys.
After being scolded, he walked out of the room as if nothing happened.
Opening the door, Otto, dressed in green attire, faced him.
“Sir Otto, what's the matter?”
Rhaegar said in confusion.
Otto nodded and said deeply: "Some matters related to street cleaning need to be reported to His Majesty."
“Cleaning up the streets is not easy, thank you for your hard work, Otto.”
Rhaegar suddenly realized and passed him by.
The street cleaning program was also one of his proposals.
Allison fought hard and handed it over to his father Otto.
Bring the former prime minister back to King's Landing to attend the Lord Chancellor's presence.
A month has passed, and the appearance of the city in King's Landing does not seem to have changed much.
The new Minister of Civil Affairs must work harder.
At night.
Otto came out of the king's chamber.
The king and his ministers had a long conversation about the street management of Junlin.
Not only cleaning, but also management!
In fact, if you want to clean up the streets, you must learn to manage them.
In order to complete the task, Otto spent money to hire a group of poor people to work.
Every day at dawn, we use shovels and dustpans to clean up the feces and urine on the streets.
Collect horse-drawn carriages to transport them outside the city and bury them collectively.
However, this approach only treats the symptoms but not the root cause.
The people of King's Landing **** and pee on the streets every day.
Especially after someone cleans the streets, all kinds of garbage are thrown onto the streets, which increases the burden on sanitation workers.
Otto tried to persuade people not to dump their excrement in the streets.
does not work.
Find Jinpaozi to strengthen management and prohibit people from discharging sewage at will.
It was unexpected and caused a strong reaction.
The people were scolding.
If Jinpaozi dares to interfere, they will dare to pour **** and urine on Jinpaozi.
Even Otto, who is the Minister of Civil Affairs, has also been greatly questioned, as if he has aroused the wrath of heaven and earth.
Speaking of common people.
It is unreasonable to not allow people to **** or pee on the street!
Can they still eat and drink by themselves?
About Otto, he was even called the "Minister of Shit and Urine".
Having a reputation in the most disorderly area of Flea Bottom.
