Game of Thrones: I became a crown prince for a day
Chapter 517 Black Swan and White Maggots
After Rhaegar left the dragon cave, a long-awaited reunion was also taking place in the tower.
…
A curved conference room with a simple decoration style.
Rhaenyra wore a black long dress, with a flying dragon ornament inlaid with gold threads on her chest, and a beautiful face with a faint smile.
Her hands were placed in front of her lower abdomen, and her noble demeanor showed the queen's style.
Creak——
The door of the hall was pushed open, and two white knights stood guard dutifully.
"Rhaenyra, long time no see!"
Ranael was excited and strode in with open arms.
Rhaenyra pursed her lips and hugged him in cooperation.
A closer look showed that her friend was exhausted and wearing red leather armor.
It seemed that she had just returned from outside.
Ranael put his cheek against hers and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, the slave ships in Slaver's Bay have become more and more rampant recently, and I couldn't welcome you last night."
Rees implemented the tower system.
That is, a semi-monarch and semi-parliamentary decision-making with one queen and three councilors.
The disadvantage is that the councillors share the queen's power, which is easy to be undermined.
The advantage is that they are very friendly to Rhaenyra, who has not received systematic training in the concept of governing the country and has lived in King's Landing for many years.
Rhaegar helps with major decisions, and small issues are entrusted to the councillors.
As one of the councillors appointed by the Velaryon family, it is her job to ride dragons and maintain the waterway.
Rhaenyra naturally understood and said generously: "It's okay, I've prepared a welcoming banquet for you."
He ordered the white knight outside the door to go down and notify them, and the two sat next to each other at the conference table.
Rhaenyra was still immersed in the dragon riding battle, and her delicate olive face was glowing red.
Rhaenyra did not forget why she came here, and took her friend's hand, with a serious face: "What are you going to do, Rhaenyra?"
Rhaenyra was stunned for a moment, and her expression gradually became depressed.
Rhaenyra remained quiet and waited patiently for her friend to think it over.
She felt sorry for Rhaenyra's experience, but it did not mean that she had lost her mind.
After all, this is a private matter between Daemon and Lanaer, and the couple can talk about it openly or closed.
If Lanaer doesn't give a definite answer, she can't help.
I believe Lanaer also understands this.
After a long time, Rhaenyra added two glasses of sake, and Lanaer finally spoke:
"I don't know how to deal with the unborn fetus, but that Lady Xiaomei must pay the price."
When these words came out, it was as if a big stone in the bottom of her heart fell.
The fatigue of patrolling for days was swept away.
Hearing this, Rhaenyra let go of her friend's hand and lowered her voice: "Are you going to kill the mother and keep the child?"
Lanaer nodded seriously: "The fault lies with Daemon and Lady Xiaomei. I don't want to embarrass an unborn child."
She is also a mother who almost died on the delivery bed.
For the unborn child, there is an inexplicable pity from the bottom of her heart.
"Laena, you really gave me a difficult question."
Rhaenyra pondered: "Have you ever thought about who would inherit the child if it was a boy?"
Let a bastard born by a prostitute inherit the Tyrosh that Daemon and Laena had conquered together?
Even if Laena agreed, the sea snake would not agree.
Laena was silent for a moment, not knowing how to respond.
She knew the consequences of the white maggot giving birth to a boy, and hesitated for half a month without making up her mind.
Seeing this, Rhaenyra stopped asking and promised: "If these are all your requests, I can guarantee that I will share the pressure with you when you need it."
She could not and did not want to represent Rhaegar, but she could provide help with her personal ability.
If Laena had any request, Lys's resources could be mobilized.
"Thank you, Rhaenyra."
Lana was moved and gritted her teeth and said: "I will talk to Daemon about the inheritance. If the discussion is not appropriate, it will not be too late to make a decision."
Having been taught by the sea snakes since she was a child, she is not an indecisive person.
When it's time to root out the weeds, there's no mercy.
As soon as the words fell, the White Knight's voice sounded:
"Welcome, King Rhaegar I of the Targaryen family, King of the Andals, the Rhoynar, and the First Men, Ruler of the Seven Kingdoms and Protector of the Realm!"
Accompanied by the sound of fists hitting breastplates, a figure appeared at the door.
Rhaenyra and Laenaer stood up at the same time.
Rhaegar walked into the meeting room and looked at the two people in surprise: "Did I disturb you?"
"Hmph!" Rhaenyra snorted lightly, her lips curved.
The siblings had agreed to meet with Lys through letters in advance.
Laenaer was an outsider at this time, and saluted respectfully: "Your Majesty."
Rhaegar smiled and waved his hand. They were all acquaintances, so there was no need to be pretentious.
Except for good uncles!
After taking his seat, Rhaegar said, "I've seen Baelon and his friends. Little Mekar tamed Thrax, a dragon with great potential."
Rhaenyra said proudly, "Of course, let's see whose son it is."
Rhaegar thought it was funny and tried to hold it back.
Rhaenyra mentioned casually, "On the way to Lys, several children have ridden dragons, only Baelon..."
Halfway through, it was self-evident.
As a mother, she was worried that her eldest son would have a psychological burden.
Rhaegar smiled and said, "We've talked about it, it'll be fine."
The eldest son inherited his tenacity and had his own ideas.
Rhaenyra nodded slightly, knowing that Rhaegar had more ways than her.
Watching the brother and sister communicate, Lanar felt like sitting on pins and needles, and found an opportunity to interrupt: "Your Majesty, the Tiger Party councillor stationed in Lys by Volantis secretly left, which can be judged that Volantis and Slaver's Bay have concluded an alliance."
"What's the situation?"
Rhaegar said seriously.
Lanar answered truthfully: "The ships in Slaver Bay block the Smoky Sea and form a line of defense with Volantis to cut off the disputed land and the Summer Sea."
Blocking the waterway and cutting off trade.
It has been a key part of naval warfare since ancient times.
Rhaegar had a general understanding and said majestically: "The troops from all over the world are being dispatched, and the kingdom will find an opportunity to go to war with them."
"I'll take my leave first."
Lanar breathed a sigh of relief and turned to go out.
Three people became two, and the conference hall suddenly seemed empty.
Rhaegar held his chin with both hands and admired Rhaenyra's beauty contentedly.
He wanted to see what his dear sister had to say to him.
Rhaenyra took a sip of sake and coughed lightly: "You are causing trouble for Braavos. Have you encountered any danger?"
How can you sit in the hall if you are in danger.
It's just a conversation.
Rhaegar smiled: "The Sea King is generous and lent me a lot of gold dragons."
At this time, Helena was checking the collection in Myr.
There is too much money to be raised in a short time, and half of it is mortgaged with goods.
Rhaenyra nodded absentmindedly after hearing this.
Of course, this is not what she wanted to ask.
It's just that she suddenly opened her mouth, even if they are siblings, she was a little embarrassed.
Rhaenyra quietly opened her eyes, bit her lower lip with her pearly teeth, and whispered: "Laena asked me for help, and the bottom line is Bella's inheritance rights."
"So?" Rhaegar asked knowingly.
Rhaenyra couldn't stand it anymore, rolled her eyes, and said frankly: "Daemon is a bastard, but Bella and Rhaenyra are my adopted daughters, at least their rights are guaranteed to be unshakable."
"Uh..."
Rhaegar was speechless: "The two sisters are in different situations, Daemon has the right to give birth to another male heir."
Rhaenyra was adopted by the Velaryon family, and she was nominally the daughter of Laenor.
The sea serpent line has no male heirs, so it is legitimate to inherit Tidehead Island.
Daemon can still give birth, and the heir can change at any time.
"Rhaegar!" Rhaenyra gritted her teeth and said unwillingly: "Benelar is my adopted daughter, and also your daughter. We have to protect her."
When Rhaegar heard the word "daughter", his eyes suddenly sharpened, and he said indifferently: "I have daughters, and three of them."
Rhaenyra was speechless, and her expression was guilty and aggrieved several times.
Rhaegar was expressing his dissatisfaction, and he was still brooding over her revenge on Jeyne.
The atmosphere was extremely awkward as the conversation went on.
Rhaegar had been riding the dragon all the way, and he couldn't stay any longer: "I'll go wash up first."
It's not that there is nothing to say, but it's actually a conflict of opinion.
He wanted to use the pregnancy of the white maggots to provoke the confrontation between Daemon and the sea snakes.
Weaken the influence of both sides and ultimately strengthen the centralization of the Iron Throne.
When the war against Volantis begins, he will start to strike the opposition in the valley with thunder.
Thoughts and emotions, the goal is obvious.
Helping Laena and Baenaila to fight for interests will only be a thankless task and cause trouble.
If one thing goes wrong, Daemon and the sea snakes will make things worse.
As a participant, Rhaegar will be embarrassed.
Rhaenyra was speechless and nodded silently.
She understood that Rhaegar was right.
Staying out of the storm is the best choice.
She just wanted to protect Laena and Baenaila, and she couldn't stand the third party, the white maggot.
"See you later." Rhaegar spoke again.
"Okay!" Rhaenyra smiled slightly.
Watching Rhaegar walk to the door, the tall back suddenly stopped.
Rhaegar thought about it and didn't intend to refute Rhaenyra's face. After all, it was not easy to speak once.
"I can't do anything about Baenaila's inheritance, but I can guarantee that Laena will not be treated unfairly."
During the siege of Tyrosh, the pregnant Laena rode Vhagar to participate in the battle.
For this reason, a stillborn was born.
Rhaegar had a plan, but he didn't want to hurt this kind woman who was gentle on the outside but strong on the inside.
If necessary, he could kill the white maggot Xiaomei and adopt the posthumous child to Laena to raise.
Daemon just needs a son.
Hearing this, Rhaenyra was very surprised.
But thinking of Laena's original idea, it coincided with Rhaegar's.
Rhaenyra pursed her lips and smiled, whispering: "Let's do it."
...
Rhaegar left and returned to the room shared by the siblings to wash up.
Rhaenyra sat on a chair, playing with a goblet.
Not long after, two figures, one big and one small, walked out of the secret door of the conference hall.
"Rhaenyra!"
Benyra was full of grievances, shouting her adoptive mother's name and rushing over.
She rushed into Rhaenyra's arms and buried her head on her thighs.
Rhaenyla raised her daughter, looked up at the other person, and said unhappily: "Who told you to bring Bernila here!?"
"Sorry, I took the initiative."
Johanna crossed her hands in front of her belly, maintaining an elegant lady's appearance.
Rhaenyla was unceremonious: "You are the chief steward of Rees, you have nothing to do?"
"It's about Miss Lannar."
Johanna looked regretful and said softly: "The white maggot is a respectable opponent, but the cautious maggots can't be exposed to the sun anymore."
The implication is that she has a way to deal with it.
Rhaenyla's face changed slightly, covered Bernila's ears, and said sternly: "Get out! Leave now!"
The woman in front of her was too smart and always had seductive ideas.
Johanna had no choice but to return silently from the secret door.
Since the last case in the valley, the trust between the two began to fail.
There is no place to use the power.
