Chapter 245 The Troubles in King's Landing
After discussing the troop training plan, Rhaegar handed over the new mission.
Moved thousands of slaves outside King's Landing to Harrenhal.
This matter, along with the selection of soldiers in Flea Bottom, was handed over to Gray Worm.
Gray Worm is taciturn but quick as fire.
Received the mission and walked out of the hall directly.
In the end, only True, the delisted maester, was left.
Rhaegar hasn't had much conversation with him yet. He only knows that he is an introverted and timid big man.
True was very knowledgeable and had obtained links of black iron, bronze, silver, and Valyrian steel.
Represents respectively: ravenology, astronomy, medicine, magic and occultism.
At night.
With a wave of his hand, he was allowed to stay in Harrenhal and serve.
This is used to fight against enemies advancing from both sides of the Divine Eye Lake.
Just want to get some ships to transport materials to Qianmian Island.
To this end, a commitment was also made.
Helping a down-and-out bachelor is easy.
Rhaegar stepped off the dragon's back and headed straight for the hot spring.
During the reign of Black-Hearted Heron, there were shipyards and docks on the north shore of God's Eye Lake.
Rhaegar rode the dragon to the north shore of the Eye of God Lake.
Getting back my diploma is more important than anything else.
After asking Tru about his wishes, Rhaegar found that he had no lofty ambitions.
Bonfires are lit on the walls of Harrenhal to drive away the darkness.
Nowadays, Qianmian Island, which has geothermal heat, is the first choice for building a dragon nest.
Among them, Valyrian steel links are very rare.
Rhaegar took a few glances, then flew to Thousand Faces Islet with his dragon.
Start by smelting black dragon stone.
Rhaegar looked serious: "On the day when Harrenhal and Dragon's Lair are completed, I will write to the Hightower family to help you return to the city and restore your status as a bachelor."
The strong laborers carried the wood and handed it over to the carpenters for processing.
Inflicted heavy losses on Aegon the Conqueror's armies.
The dragon's nest was his childhood wish.
The shore was illuminated by firelight, and a simple lumber factory was first built here.
Tohru was very excited, and his fat belly trembled.
Timber factories process wood, and shipyards and docks will follow.
On the contrary, he is a nerd who never leaves home and likes to do scientific research.
But ships are needed to transport materials.
For a bachelor from a civilian background, bachelor's status is the highest honor.
Nearly a month later, Hot Spring Eye has undergone earth-shaking changes.
Gluttony flew across the wide water surface of Shenyan Lake and rushed to the sky above Thousand Faces Island.
Only one bachelor in a hundred can obtain it.
The school city is built in the old city, which usually gives it a bit of face.
Rhaegar didn't have time to smelt the dragon stone, so he just gave the spell to Tru and let him do it.
“Let's go, glutton.”
It was precisely because Toru was interested in magic and mysticism that he secretly developed wildfire and became an expelled bachelor.
The biggest expectation at this time is to find a place to settle down and maintain a living.
Of course Rhaegar cannot let go of such a talent.
House Hightower is the domain of Oldtown.
Flapping his wings, he landed slowly.
But Lei Jia is not interested in forming a naval army.
The hot spring eye, which was originally only the size of a basin, suddenly expanded to several meters wide.
“Yes, I promise to complete the task, Your Highness.”
A weirwood happens to be within the range of the hot spring, and its entire root is covered by the spring water, becoming a tree in the water.
The hot spring water is clear and white steam evaporates.
The roots of the weirwood tree are entangled, and the human face on the trunk is twisted, giving it a different kind of broken beauty.
“Huh~ the underground temperature is getting higher and higher, the dragon's nest must be feasible.”
Rhaegar let out a breath and took off his clothes as he walked forward.
Wow…
Jumped into the water, leaned against the roots of the weirwood, raised his head and closed his eyes in enjoyment.
“Hmm~~”
The water was scalding hot. Rhaegar let out a comfortable groan and spread his legs.
The hot springs are very hot, which suits his heat tolerance.
Gradually, he began to feel sleepy.
The King's Landing.
Red Castle, the king's palace.
A burst of fierce applause passed, and only heavy breathing was left in the bedroom.
Viserys lay on his back on the bed, his chest heaving, too tired to open his eyes.
At this time, he would be grateful to his eldest son.
Since the festering wounds on his body have recovered, his body functions seem to be twenty years younger.
“Viserys, my voice is hoarse. Get me a glass of water...”
Allison was lying in her husband's arms, the girl's white and tender skin flushed, and her throat was rustling and soft as she begged.
Although I don't really like her husband's hard work and find it boring.
But it must be said that she had a bad premonition that she was going to have five children.
“Drink slowly, Alisson.”
Viserys was panting heavily, and he supported his wife very considerately, pouring water for her and bringing it to her mouth.
Allison drank all the water in the glass in one gulp, circling the wall of the glass with the tip of his tongue.
Viserys felt his heart heat up when he saw it, and he regained his strength.
“Viserys, I have something to tell you.”
Alison should calm down his breathing and start the topic in due course.
Viserys hugged his wife and asked with satisfaction: "Tell me and listen."
It was Alisson who took the initiative to ask for it tonight. He knew that this would happen.
“The children are getting older every day, and I want you to think about them.”
Allison raised her pretty face and looked pitiful: "As the eldest brother, Rhaegar has the prince's palace and Harrenhal. Rhaenyra also has Dragonstone as a fief. The other children are not yet settled."
It's no wonder she was impatient. The two heirs of the late queen occupied the court and enjoyed the most generous privileges. Her children had nothing.
Oh, right.
It can't be said that there is nothing, Aegon took a job as an army staff officer on the Stepstone Islands.
Viserys lowered his eyes and calmed down after hearing this.
Sense prevails.
He understands Allison's psychology and feels that the treatment of the children is unfair.
As a father, he really cannot keep a bowl of water balanced.
Because he is the king, this bowl of water cannot be balanced at all.
Rhaenyra and Rhaegar are both the fruits of love conceived by him and his late wife Emma Arryn.
Emotionally speaking, it is indeed better than several other children.
In addition, Rhaenyra resigned as crown prince, which was a huge sacrifice, and he has been trying to make up for it.
Rhaegar was the eldest son and the crown prince of the kingdom.
ˆ He is currently the most capable male heir in the Targaryen dynasty.
At only 13 years old, the two dragons made a surprise attack on the Three Women's Kingdom and put down the rebellion in the Riverlands.
With this kind of record, the entire Targaryen family is one of the top geniuses.
As long as he does not die young or become insane, he will definitely be a wise king.
He is willing to spend money and energy to support such a pair of children.
Seeing that he was still silent, Allison reached out to touch his chin, rubbed his beard, and whispered: "Aegon works **** the Stepstone Islands. He is about the same age as Rhaegar, isn't he..."
Helena and her two younger sons were too young, and Aegon was the only son who could do anything.
Although Aegon is usually dissolute and unkempt.
But Allison didn't think Aegon was a waste.
Viserys and Daemon both visited one of King's Landing's brothels when they were young, and they were the same.
Aegon has at least been on the battlefield and made meritorious deeds while riding Sunfire.
Putting aside the order of seniority and age, he is several times stronger than the heirs of some big families.
Viserys thought about it again and again, hesitating.
In his heart, Aegon was not like a human king.
As a prince and assistant, he is still the best choice.
"Do you think Aegon should have a fief?"
Viserys' eyes flickered and he went straight to the point.
Allison looked happy and nodded lightly.
Viserys rubbed his brows and sighed: "If you had told me earlier, I could still have left Stone Fence City. There is currently no suitable castle for him in the kingdom."
A piece of fiefdom is not given on demand.
Aegon is a prince, and once he is sealed, he becomes a prince.
There must be castles and palaces, and enough servants and subjects to ensure the royal family's face.
If there is no free castle to grant, an open space must be sealed for him and he will carry out difficult land reclamation.
It's better to stay in King's Landing and be a prince of pleasure.
Allison knew this and she had a countermeasure.
Sitting up, he looked directly into her husband's eyes and said seriously: "The war on the Stepped Islands is almost over, and Aegon can stay there."
She always remembered Jenny's analysis.
The Stepped Islands are stuck between two continents and are an important shipping route.
Now that the Three Women's Kingdom has declined, the danger has been greatly reduced.
In the stone step islands, the state treasury will naturally pay the fortress to build a fortress and stay in a heavy soldier.
It is simply a perfect fiefdom.
Viserys was startled when he heard this, and murmured: "The Stone Steps Islands!"
In a land of right and wrong, disputes are inevitable.
In his heart, there is a person who is more suitable to be sealed on the Stone Step Islands.
It can be regarded as compensation for each other.
Allison shook her husband's shoulders gently and urged, "Viserys, what do you think?"
“That's a good suggestion, let me think about it carefully.”
Viserys made a habit of escaping, rolled over and hugged his wife, closing his eyes.
When you are unsure about something, put it off as long as you can.
Flea hole.
In a certain brothel.
Several figures in black robes walked into the brothel door and headed towards the second-floor compartments.
Crunch—
The door opened, and sitting inside was an elegant woman with a graceful figure and wrapped in gauze.
“White maggots, I have heard their name for a long time.”
The man in black robes led by him lifted his hood, revealing Otto's deep face.
Messaria put her hands on her legs, stared at the other person, and said in a magnetic and hoarse voice: "Sir Otto's famous name is like thunder."
Otto's reputation suffered greatly due to the street cleaning plan.
The infamy spread throughout King's Landing.
“Haha, I just take it as a compliment.”
Otto's eyes flickered and he sat down opposite Messaria.
Messalia's expression remained the same, indifferent as if she had no desire, and said: "Master Otto, why did you go all the way to find me?"
“White Maggot Xiaomei is the most secretive character in Flea Bottom, but she knows most of the information.”
Otto told her origins and offered her an olive branch frankly: "I need an intelligence chief, how about working for me?"
“I'm afraid not, I have my own loyalties.”
Messaria refused without hesitation.
Otto narrowed his eyes and said calmly: "Prince Daemon is imprisoned in prison and will not be able to get out for a short time."
Messaria was once Daemon's mistress, and the senior officials in the court knew about it.
In 105 AC, Rhaegar was just born and Queen Emma Arryn died.
Daemon, Messaria and others were talking nonsense in the brothel, calling Rhaegar the "Crown Prince for a Day."
Furthermore, Messalia was pregnant with Daemon's illegitimate son.
Daemon was overjoyed and hurriedly found a dragon egg to offer, intending to place it in the cradle of the unborn child.
That dragon egg was originally in the cradle of the unconscious Rhaegar.
The follow-up is Rhaenyra riding Syrax to Dragonstone Island to get the dragon egg back from Daemon for her brother.
After this incident has passed.
Viserys, who valued the dragon eggs, was completely furious. He not only drove Daemon out of King's Landing, but also ordered him to send his mistress Messalia back to Lys.
Dimon could not bear the pressure and did as he was told.
Messaria crossed the sea by boat, but encountered a storm on the way and her unborn child was aborted.
This change was also one of the triggers for the first break between Viserys and Daemon.
