Chapter 166 The kindness of the Earl of Seagull Town

The two didn't chat for a few words before Yara was called away by other noble ladies and ladies.

Before Rega could take a sip of water, a tall old man with gray hair came over leading a pair of boys and girls.

There is a tower-style pattern embroidered on the collars of the old men and young girls.

A yellow burning tower on a black triangle on a flaming red background.

That is the emblem of the Grafson family, the earl family of Seagull Town.

The old man gave a slight salute and said with a smile: "Prince, Greene Grafson greets you."

"You just greeted me, Lord Green."

Rhaegar stood up from his chair and nodded in return.

This trip is to win over the support of Seagull Town, and a harmonious attitude is the best.

Seagull Town has a naturally sheltered harbor located southeast of Eagle's Nest City, on the shores of Crab Bay, and south of Runestone City.

It is one of the five major cities in Westeros.

It is about the same size as White Harbor and smaller than Lannisport, Oldtown, and King's Landing.

The Grafson family is one of the main noble families in Seagull Town, possessing considerable wealth and connections.

"Prince, I haven't seen you for a long time. You are more and more handsome and noble."

Old Green had a friendly attitude and introduced the young boy and girl who stood up: "This is my grandson Joffrey and granddaughter Jonal."

Rhaegar cast his gaze after hearing this.

The brother and sister are similar in age, probably 16 or 7 years old.

Joffrey is handsome, with curly black hair and light gray eyes of the Grafson family.

Jonal is also very beautiful and has a graceful figure.

What surprised Rhaegar most was that Jonal had silver-gold curly hair and purple pupils.

Standard appearance of Valyrian descendants.

"Miss Joanna's hair color..."

Rhaegar looked at Old Green hesitantly.

Old Green chuckled, his eyes shining: "My mother is Mrs. Prudence of the Celtija family. Joanna inherited her great-grandmother's Valyrian characteristics from one generation to the next."

"That's it. Miss Jonal is really beautiful."

Rhaegar pretended to be surprised and praised Jonnar generously.

Only then did he remember that Grafson had a marriage relationship with the Settiga family.

After all, the Grafson family is very wealthy, and many nobles are willing to marry into this family for the sake of money.

In the brief history of the Targaryen family, it is also recorded that Lady Prudence once rescued Rhaegar's great-grandmother, Queen Alexa.

Thinking of this, Rhaegar smiled a little more genuinely and chatted more enthusiastically.

Jonal stood next to her brother, lowered her head slightly, and peeked at Rhaegar with a slightly red face.

The useless greeting ends.

Rega raised the topic and said solemnly: "Lord Green, the war between the kingdom and the Three Women's Kingdom is about to begin, and your family's help is needed."

"Prince, I have received word from the raven."

Old Green was also unambiguous and said cheerfully: "The Graves family of Seagull Town is always willing to fight for His Majesty and Prince you."

"Great, with the help of your family, the kingdom will definitely be able to defeat the rampant Three Women Country."

Rhaegar smiled, and his impression of the old man skyrocketed.

The kingdom needs vassals like this who can help at critical moments.

"Prince, I also want to catch up with some old friends. You young people have quick thinking and are better at chatting."

Old Green said goodbye and left his grandchildren behind.

Once the old man left, Rhaegar and the three of them were left looking at each other.

"Prince, let me get you a drink."

With a soft voice, Jonal carefully picked up the flask and poured the wine, her big eyes shy and timid.

"Thanks."

Rhaegar didn't drink, so he took a polite sip, feeling even thirstier.

Old Green agreed happily and even kept his grandchildren with him. Rhaegar understood what he meant.

He looked at Jonal secretly.

She was a pretty girl, and Valyria's features made him feel close to her.

But Rhaegar didn't like girls who were too shy.

As his thoughts flowed, Rhaegar cast his gaze on Joffrey and said cheerfully: "Joffrey, look at the sword on your waist. Do you know how to use a sword?"

"Yes, Your Highness."

Joffrey seemed a little cautious and said hurriedly: "I have been studying and practicing swordsmanship since I was a child."

The teachings of the Grafson family have always been good, and their requirements for future generations are very strict.

Rega waved his hand and said, "You're a little older than me, so don't be too restrained. Just treat it as small talk."

After thinking for a while, he asked: "How is your swordsmanship? Have you ever considered becoming a knight?"

"Yes, Prince."

Joffrey's eyes sparkled, then went out, and he said in frustration: "The swordsmanship teacher said that my talent is average and it is difficult to achieve anything."

"It doesn't matter. Talent is important, but hard work is the way to success."

Rega comforted him and extended an olive branch: "Are you interested in taking up some official positions?"

"I have only managed some account books with my grandfather, and have never been in power."

Joffrey couldn't hide his excitement and explained awkwardly.

"You can start by serving wine and observe how other ministers handle matters."

Rhaegar changed his approach and spared no effort to win over.

He has no interest in marrying Old Green's granddaughter, so he can only support his grandson.

I believe Old Green will understand what he means.

After chatting with the brothers and sisters for a while, Mrs. Leia went downstairs and called the attendants to arrange the banquet.

The wedding reception is in two days.

But the reception banquet to welcome nobles from all over the country still has to be held.

At the banquet, several long tables were set up.

Lei Jiagui was the crown prince and sat at the same table with a group of nobles such as Leya and Jero as the masters, the noble old Green and so on.

Rhea was the owner, sitting alone with her fiancé Jero.

Rhaegar, who was of noble status, was sitting alone, facing the two of them.

Valley people are enthusiastic and unrestrained, and the atmosphere at the banquet is very lively.

Rhaegar was a spectator, responding to toasts from time to time.

At the next table are noble ladies and ladies.

Many noble ladies were attracted by Rhaegar's handsome face and were ready to approach him and strike up a conversation.

Old Green took action again. Since it was inconvenient for Rhaegar to pour the wine alone, he called Jonal over to pour the wine.

This is a hornet's nest.

The adults with their families called their daughters and granddaughters for various reasons and wandered around in front of Rega's eyes.

There are basically no fools among the adults who can sit at this table.

News that the kingdom is going to war with the Three Women Kingdom has spread, and the meaning of the crown prince's appearance in the valley is very clear.

Valley is a loyal supporter of the royal family.

Now that the crown prince has personally come to summon the vassals, in addition to providing help, they, of course, also want to reap benefits.

The biggest benefit is to marry into the royal family.

Put your daughter and granddaughter in front of the crown prince, if you are lucky enough to see him in the eye.

The future of the family will skyrocket.

Rega was helpless about this.

It’s really heart-warming to have warblers and swallows around you.

But these aristocratic ladies were so enthusiastic that they almost got into a fight trying to pour him wine.

From a practical point of view, what will happen if the wine is poured?

He doesn't know how to drink!

"Hiss..."

In the middle of the banquet, a dragon roar sounded from the sky above the castle, and the strong wind stirred up dust and slapped the glass windows of the hall.
