Chapter 113 Mrs. Leya

Jason, who had curly blond hair, strode forward and saluted the king.

Rhaegar glanced at him sideways, nodded and said, "Thank you, Lord Jason."

As a compliment, he wanted to express his gratitude.

Jason smiled, raised his chin and said, "Your Majesty, this reserve exchange meeting is really grand, befitting the status of a prince."

Viserys smiled and said: "Of course, Rhaegar is my eldest son and future king. I hope this banquet will go down in history."

Jason glanced at the empty seat to the right of the king and asked curiously: "Where's the queen, do you still want to greet her in person?"

"The queen is probably still preparing for the celebrations," Viserys replied casually.

Jason took the opportunity to speak: "That's why men start wars. Women can never rush to the battlefield in time."

As he said that, he looked at Rhaenyra and asked, "With the burden of the crown prince gone, what are the princess's plans for the future?"

He was also thinking of marrying a Targaryen princess.

Viserys opened his mouth, wanting to answer for his daughter.

Rhaegar blurted out: "Lord Jason, I wonder what kind of war you have launched. Do you need me to drive the dragon to Lannister Port?"

Rhaenyra glanced sideways at him and silently took his hand.

Rhaegar smiled at the memory and turned to stare at Jason who was a little dazed.

Jason didn't expect to be asked this question and hesitated: "Uh... I didn't start a war, so there's no need to bother with the prince's rescue."

"Really? What a shame."

Rhaegar pretended to be pity and asked: "Then do you have any plans for war in the future? I heard that the iron type often harass the coastline?"

"The Ironborn are just a bunch of ignorant pirates, and the soldiers at the port are enough to deal with them."

Jason looked troubled and said: "With your dignity as a prince, you should not work hard on the iron type."

"That's it. Lord Jason is really a lord who is proficient in military affairs. I admire him endlessly."

Rhaegar said as he raised his glass to toast him.

Looking at the fruity grape juice in the prince's cup, Jason frowned and raised his glasses to drink together.

After a glass of wine, Jason knew that the prince was not welcome and walked down the steps dejectedly.

Looking at his back, Rhaenyra leaned into Rhaegar's ear and whispered: "I can handle an arrogant maniac."

"I just can't stand his stupid face." Rhaegar shrugged.

He showed off his manliness in exchange for savings and dared to covet his sister. I'm afraid it wasn't the seawater from Lannister Port that got into his head.

As soon as Jason walked away, the Countess of the Valley, who couldn't stand it anymore, walked over quickly.

"Your Majesty, Leia Royce of Runestone City wishes you and the prince and princess their best wishes."

The countess raised her glass and said.

"Thank you, Mrs. Leia..."

Viserys was not the only one to respond to her, Rhaegar and Rhaenyra also spoke in respect.

The countess in front of her is not an ordinary person.

She is the younger brother of Viserys, the royal uncle of Rhaegar, and the first wife of Daemon Targaryen.

Logically speaking, they should call each other sister-in-law and aunt.

Rhaegar secretly looked at Mrs. Leia.

She has long brown hair, a graceful figure, not to mention her beautiful face, but at least she has good features and exudes a capable and heroic spirit.

It's not as ugly as Damon said, and it's not as ugly as a valley goat.

Mrs. Leia took a sip of wine and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, Damon committed a major crime. Originally, I should bear the responsibility together with him."

"Don't worry, Damon's fault lies with him alone, and you will never be implicated."

Viserys said politely.

Mrs. Leia shook her head: "Your Majesty, I know what I am about to say is treasonous, but I still beg you to agree."

"I wonder what you have to say?"

Viserys asked hesitantly, realizing something was wrong.

Mrs. Leia said solemnly: "I have been married to Damon for ten years, but our marriage is in name only. He disliked me for not being beautiful enough and refused to sleep with me. The scandal has already spread throughout the mainland."

Rhaegar sat up straight and listened carefully.

This is Damon's scandal, and he needs to hear it.

Mrs. Leia continued: "As the Earl of Runestone City, I have been surrounded by stigma for a long time."

"Now that Daemon has committed treason, I beg you to end our marriage and restore your loyal vassal's reputation."

She finished what she had prepared for a long time in one breath, and her body seemed to feel light.

Staring at the king firmly.

"You want to break off the engagement?" Viserys looked ugly.

"No! It's a divorce. Damon never regards me as his wife." Mrs. Leia defended.

Viserys held the wine glass in his hand, staring at Lady Leia inexplicably, and his breathing gradually became heavier.

Damon is indeed a bastard, he just wants to kill him quickly.

But he is his brother after all.

It is a shame for the woman to file for divorce. Not only will Dimon be ridiculed, but the royal family will also become a laughing stock.

Whether it is for the reputation of the royal family or the remaining family affection for Damon.

Viserys didn't want to agree to Lady Rhea's request for divorce.

The scene was a little solemn for a while.

Rhaenyra looked at Lady Rhea, the titular aunt, with indignation and sympathy.

A dignified countess has been dragged down by a marriage for many years, and she has been laughed at many times behind her back.

Rhaenyra leaned close to Rhaegar and gritted her teeth: "Daemon is a scumbag, you are not allowed to imitate him."

"It's a mistake for you to compare him with me." Rhaegar retorted unhappily.

Viserys was silent for a long time and said in a deep voice: "Lady Leia, Daemon has not been arrested yet. Can you wait until you capture him and resolve this matter with him personally?"

As an older brother, he did not want to decide the marriage for Damon.

Lady Rhea hesitated several times and wanted to go on to plead with the king to end the marriage directly.

She couldn't stand being Damon's wife for a moment and just wanted to get rid of her as soon as possible.

"Ms. Leia, my father has approved your request. You just need to wait until you catch Damon."

Seeing that his father was having difficulty making a decision, Rhaegar spoke up at the right time.

Lady Leia looked at the young prince, suspicion flashing in her eyes.

Rhaegar smiled and said: "Runestone City has always been a loyal follower of the royal family. The royal family will not make its followers suffer humiliation. Daemon made a big mistake and this marriage should be ended."

Mrs. Leia nodded and asked the king: "Your Majesty, is what the prince said true?"

Viserys had an ugly expression on his face: "Yes, Rhaegar's words are what I meant. Once Daemon is apprehended and brought to justice, I will let you solve it."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Leya looked excited and thanked Rhaegar again: "Thank you for your selflessness, prince."

"Selfless?"

Rhaegar frowned at her words.

What is selflessness?

Do you want to kill your relatives out of righteousness?

Upon seeing this, Mrs. Leia realized that she had said something unpleasant and hurriedly said: "Sorry, I didn't mean that..."

What's the meaning?

Rhaegar's eyes widened and he looked at her incomprehensively.

"I will retreat first, Your Majesty..."

The more she said, the more wrong she became. Mrs. Leia suppressed her blush and walked down the steps.

Rhaegar turned to look at Rhaenyra.
