Game of Thrones: I became a crown prince for a day

Chapter 523: A young girl is no match for a widow

When the word "ally" was mentioned, the wound on his back was aching.

The sea snake lost interest and said politely: "Your proposal is not perfect. I don't need to take risks."

He allied with Daemon to conquer Tyrosh, but Daemon turned around and occupied the city-state himself.

Just a few years later, even the future heirs had to eliminate the blood of Velaryon.

The same is true for Rhaegar on the Iron Throne.

The Battle of the Stepstones, the Narrow Sea War, and the Conquest of Dorne.

Which war did not have Velaryon's blood shed.

In the end, the royal family continued to grow, and Velaryon had no time to sleep.

The past is a lesson for the future.

The sea snake didn't want to be a gambler at his age.

"Lord Corliss, don't make a rash decision."

Aemond looked normal, and there was no embarrassment of being rejected.

The sea snake frowned slightly, wondering what the other party was up to.

Ever since the second son entered the door, he has exuded an aura of determination to win.

It gave people an uncomfortable feeling of being controlled.

Clang——

Aemond reached back and an axe fell on the floor.

Instantly, the guard at the door rushed in and drew out the sword vigilantly.

"Get out!"

The sea snake had a gloomy face and said sarcastically: "This is a Targaryen prince, do you know?"

Rhaenys rolled her eyes when she heard this.

The guards looked at each other and left in confusion.

Until this time,

The sea snake leaned forward and took out the short hand axe that was scattered on the floor.

"Huh?"

At first glance, the sea snake's cunning eyesight instantly saw the clue.

The axe was about three feet long, with a standard appearance of a felling axe.

It can chop and split, and is strong and durable.

Usually chop trees and firewood, and kill enemies with an axe.

The sea snake observed it carefully, with a strange expression, and confirmed: "Celtigar's axe."

"Yes, it's a gift from Lord Celtigar."

Aemond picked up the axe, stared at it affectionately with his one eye, and sighed: "A divine weapon, hanging on the wall as a decoration, it's really covered in dust."

The axe is silver-gray all over, with clear water ripples on the surface, like a fine work of art.

Rhaenys's face changed instantly, and she was shocked: "Celtigar's crab claws, that's a Valyrian steel axe!?"

Valyrian steel weapons, each one is a rare treasure.

Except for Rhaegardon who took out one thing after another, many ancient families including the Velaryon did not pass on any of them to their descendants.

The sea snake was more shocked than his wife.

The three ancient families who were exiled to Westeros from ancient Valyria were familiar with each other.

Members of the Targaryen family are born with two sides.

If they are not crazy, they must be great.

The Velaryon family is loyal and reliable, with a fearless fighting spirit.

Only the Celtigar family.

Many people in this family have a shrewd little calculation in their hearts, and are good at weighing the pros and cons and making painful decisions.

When the exile Enar migrated to the continent of Westeros, the current Celtigar patriarch made the most daring choice and sold his ancestral property to follow.

However, a family that is good at calculating will obviously not be welcomed by others.

Therefore, the Targaryens have intermarried with Velaryans for generations, but rarely choose Celtigar as their partners.

Looking at the coveted Valyrian steel weapon, the sea snake took a long time to recover and said solemnly: "What conditions did you give, and this axe fell into your hands?"

Aemond smiled: "A proposal comparable to Velaryon, and there is a marriage contract to be fought for."

"What!"

Rhaenys approached quickly, and said in disbelief: "You broke your engagement with Cassandra Baratheon and married a Celtigar daughter instead?"

"This is not a wise choice."

The sea snake took a deep breath and did not agree.

Cassandra is the Duchess of Storm's End and has the power to call on the entire Stormlands.

If the sea snake gave up the engagement for an unknown Volantis, he could only say that the other party was an arrogant idiot.

"You are wrong, aunt."

Aemond looked at the excited Rhaenys and explained with a smile: "It is undeniable that I am not interested in your stupid niece."

"But I will still abide by the engagement."

Rhaenys was completely confused.

Aemond turned his head away and said: "I will marry Cassandra as promised and take over the loyalty of the nobles in the Stormlands."

Of course, he did not dare to break the engagement.

If he dared to do so, Rhaegar would break a leg.

"To be honest, maybe I am old and can't understand what young people say."

Rhaenys was confused and retreated to her husband's side.

A few words from her nephew almost made her brain crash.

The sea snake was different.

His eyes were sharp and stared straight at Aemond.

Aemond shrugged and said, "If I get Volantis, I can also marry another wife."

"Boy, Daemon is not a good example!"

The sea snake's face was gloomy and his tone was full of warning.

Daemon's actions have become a thorn in his heart.

Aemond didn't care and continued to win people's hearts: "Through cordial conversations, I have gained the support of Celtigar. Counting the influence of the Baratheon family, it is enough to fight a beautiful battle."

The sea snake sneered: "I don't believe that Bartimos and his son would be so stupid."

"The fact is that they agreed."

Aemond looked directly into the other's eyes and turned the axe in a circle as if to prove it.

He did say a lot of words to Celtigar to win him over.

But the effect was not good, so he used some fire-breathing tricks that only sheep thieves would use.

Celtigar agreed obediently and reluctantly gave away his family axe - crab claws.

The sea snake said no more, thinking that the one-eyed boy might have used a series of threats and inducements on Celtigar.

Bartimos, the cunning old crab, might really offend greed.

"So, what is your decision?"

Aemond's eyes were burning, waiting for a new ally to join.

"Impossible!"

The sea snake snorted coldly and said sharply: "Targaryen men are not trustworthy."

Aemond was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect that the old sea snake, who was always ambitious, would refuse so straightforwardly.

After a little hesitation, he still wanted to win over and changed the subject: "I received Daemon's wedding invitation."

"So what?" The sea snake was angry about this and didn't want to talk more.

Aemond's eyes flickered, and he said slowly: "To be honest, Whiteworm is just a bitch, not qualified to marry into the royal family."

"Just say what you want to say." The sea snake said impatiently.

"Let's make an alliance, and I will help you solve your worries."

A trace of viciousness flashed in Aemond's eyes, and he said concisely: "As long as Whiteworm dies, all difficulties will be solved."

A bitch, dead is dead.

Who knows it was him who did it.

As soon as these words came out, the sea snake and Rhaenys's faces changed drastically.

"Nonsense, who do you think I am?"

The sea snake felt despised and issued an order to expel him: "One-Eye! If there is no king's order, you can leave."

If you want to assassinate Whiteworm, why do you need a young boy to take the lead.

He is the Lord of the Tide, and noble salt blood flows in his veins.

The other party's move is not to take him seriously at all.

But as a dog that any Targaryen can summon and dismiss at will.

After the rage, the temperature in the hall dropped to zero degrees.

Aemond stared at the sea snake for a long time, then stood up silently.

Without saying a word, he strode away.

The sea snake seemed to realize that he was too emotional, and added: "Your dragon can eat and drink enough before flying, and the guards will feed enough cattle and sheep."

"No need, sir."

Aemond's voice was cold and he strode out with an axe.

...

In the corridor.

Aemond's face was livid, and his feet were getting faster and faster.

If the wooing failed, the plan would be stranded.

He was obviously kind, but he was scolded by the sea snake.

Since the other party was unwilling to join forces, don't blame him for being rude.

It just so happened that he promised Setiga to marry another wife, so he might as well support Daemon's marriage to the white maggot to pave the way for his future.

"Prince, please wait a moment."

Suddenly, a maid's call came from behind.

Aemond pretended not to hear it and quickly walked to a corner.

The maid was very anxious, trotting to catch up, and hurriedly said: "Princess Rhaenys asked me to tell you that it's getting late, you can stay in the castle to recuperate for one night."

The sea snake drove Aemond away in an impulse.

Rhaenys knew that her nephew had no ill intentions, but just wanted to win him over.

After Aemond left, she talked to her husband to resolve the situation.

Aemond was disdainful and sneered: "The sincerity of a prince cannot be restored by a meal and a night."

Compared with him, the aunt was very insincere.

After all, it was Velaryon's Tidehead Island under her feet, not Targaryen's territory.

After saying that, she raised her foot and walked into the corner.

When they met, she bumped into a soft body.

"Ah!"

The woman cried softly and retreated in panic.

Before Aemond could see her face clearly, the other party hurried away with her skirt lifted.

Glancing back,

She had long silver-gold braided hair, a light yellow corseted dress, and a petite figure.

She was slightly exposed from the side, with skin as white as milk and a few freckles.

Emond was distracted for a moment and almost mistook her for his sister Helena.

Until she ran away, he grabbed the maid's hand and couldn't help asking, "Who is she?"

It seems that the sea snake has no niece to be married.

The maid trembled and said honestly, "It's Lady Celine."

"Celine..."

Emond's eyes flashed, and he murmured, "The widow of Lanino, the daughter of Celtigar."

He remembered.

At a dinner party many years ago, Lanino had brought his new wife to attend.

A wife who was not beautiful.

Probably, about twenty years old.

"Prince, can I leave?"

The maid was terrified and begged with tears in her eyes.

Aemond was not interested in her, and smiled: "No hurry, take me to find a guest room first, I can't let my aunt down."

"Ah?"

The maid was stunned.

"Find me a guest room, don't you understand?"

Aemond was somewhat moody, and shook off the clumsy maid, and said without turning his head: "Don't worry about me, I'll walk around the castle."

...

Valley, Eagle's Nest.

Seven slender white towers of different heights construct the overall picture of this steep castle.

"Hiss--"

A pitch-black dragon flew at high speed, leaped over the towering giant's spear, and circled around the Eagle's Nest.

The huge body fell and disappeared into the surging sea of ​​clouds.

The pitch-black dragon wings spread like a sickle, cutting through the turbulent waterfall named Alessa's Tears.

...

Virgin Tower.

Plop--

A small door bounced open, as if it was violently broken by a wild boar.

"Chuckles, chuckles..."

A series of magpie-like laughter, and a little girl with a bright smile ran out.

She has short chestnut hair, big black eyes, and her skin is white and shiny under the sun.

"Zhan Sifu, don't chase me."

The little girl is short, wearing an orange short skirt and a pair of short legs.

Zhan Sifu, who had fiery red curly hair, chased after her and threatened: "Stop, don't let me spank your little ass."

"No! No!"

The little girl trotted all the way and entered the back garden with lush vegetation.

boom--

He hit a pillar head-on, and his small nose turned red from the collision.

"Woo~~"

The little girl screamed in pain, her little feet kept retreating, and she muttered: "It hurts so much, my nose is crooked."

"Really?"

A gentle voice sounded, and the tall figure blocked the sun above his head.

The little girl was startled and raised her head in surprise.

Enter the eyes,

A big brother with long silver-gold hair shawl and an incredible appearance.

His eyes were smiling, looking at her gently.

Diana tilted her head, clasped her two little hands into a ball, and pretended to be an adult: "Mud Howl!"

But I was thinking in my heart that her silver hair and purple eyes looked just like her sister's.

Rhaegar leaned down and couldn't help smiling: "Hello, little one."

"Yeah," the little girl nodded and trailed off.

His big eyes rolled around, as if he was thinking about what the adults would say after greeting each other.

"Little guy, do you remember who I am?"

Rhaegar looked at it with joy, wishing he could touch the little girl's furry head immediately.

The little girl is very beautiful, and her tangled little expression is so cute.

He was only as tall as his knees and looked like he was only three or four years old.

"do not remember!"

The little girl raised her face, looked at Rega seriously, and said abruptly: "Do you remember who I am?"

"certainly."

Rhaegar couldn't bear it any longer, reached out and took the little girl into his arms, and chuckled: "You are Lyanna, Lyanna Targaryen."

Lyanna's eyes suddenly widened and she asked in surprise: "Do you know me?"

She said that she felt that the other person looked familiar, and she felt warm when she was held in her arms.

Lyanna looked around, put her little head close to Rhaegar's ear, and asked in a low voice: "Then who are you?"

Lei Jia smiled and felt the breath in his ears, feeling warm and a little sour in his heart.

The last time I set foot in the Eagle's Nest City was the little girl's name day when she turned two.

Children are very forgetful, after such a long time.

Didn't even recognize him.

Rhaegar held Lyanna's little butt with his arms and carried her to the main tower. As he walked, he said, "We will know when we meet your mother."

"oh."

Lyanna didn't make any fuss and let Rhaegar hold her in his arms.

Looking at the flowers and plants passing by, a touch of intimacy flashed in his big eyes.

As if testing, he slowly leaned his head on Rhaegar's chest.

"Huh?"

Seeing that Rhaegar didn't respond, Lyanna's eyes sparkled and she arched her head in joy.

She is like a little sun that warms people's hearts, always keeping a bright smile.

Rhaegar looked at it again and again, feeling particularly cheerful.

In the end, he stretched out his big hand that couldn't bear it and rubbed the furry head.

"Hmph~"

Lyanna was like a coquettish little kitten, pretending to be reserved and raised her hands to pounce a few times.

Main tower, hall.

When Lei Jia entered, he happened to bump into Zhan Sifu who was in a hurry.

"Zhan Sifu, what are you going to do?"

Lyanna stuck out her little head and asked softly.

Zhan Sifu looked flustered, but quickly calmed down: "Your Majesty, Mrs. Jenny is in the hall."

"What's your business?"

Rega had a strange look in his eyes, secretly wondering why he was so panicked when he saw him.

"It's okay, I was just looking for the little princess."

Jensif answered fluently, and glared at Lyanna.

"Hmph!~"

Lyanna snorted and put her arms around Rhaegar's neck, ignoring her stern foster mother.

Zhan Sifu is bad and always takes care of her.

"Contain your temper."

Rega looked amused, missed Zhan Sifu and continued walking inside.

Hall, on the main seat.

Jenny rested her elbows on the armrest, her long chestnut hair hanging down on her chest, her expression indescribably complicated.

The female companion Bao Lan is waiting below, holding an incubation vessel.

Wisps of white smoke emerged, and a bronze-colored dragon egg was placed inside.
