Chapter 170 Forced to compete
The scene was chaotic, with nobles watching the show surrounding the two people.
Rhea was not present, and Jero watched this scene with a sullen face.
Today is his wedding, and these two people are making a noise regardless of etiquette and are disturbing the peace.
"what happened?"
Rhaegar walked up to him leisurely.
"prince."
Jero forced a smile and said, "It was Godrich Bonnell from Sisters Village and Pace Cowart from Coldwater City who had a quarrel."
The Sisters are located on the Three Sisters Islands in Biting Bay.
The Bonnell family are nobles from Sweet Sister Island in the Three Sisters Islands.
Lengshui City is located at the mouth of a river to the west of the Five Fingers Peninsula. It is a secondary noble in the valley and is loyal to Runestone City.
Jero then told the reason for the quarrel between the two.
The Sisterhood is the most notorious smuggler's den in Westeros, and the crimes within it are countless.
Pace Covater's nephew smuggled a shipload of goods to his sister's village to sell the stolen goods, but was taken advantage of by the local gang.
And this group of gangsters are all lackeys raised by Godrich Bonnell.
Pace Cowart would definitely not be able to accept the death of his nephew and the loss of goods.
Godrich is a cautious bastard who usually stays out of the sisters' village to avoid retaliation.
Pace took advantage of today's wedding to catch Godrich and wanted to take the opportunity to take revenge.
Rhaegar listened intently.
I can only lament that neither side is a good person, it’s just dog eat dog.
After thinking for a while, he asked, "Kouvat is a vassal of Runestone City. Why don't you stop him?"
Jero shook his head and said angrily: "Ever since Leia became the Earl of Runestone City, these vassals have often been disobedient, otherwise they would not dare to cause trouble on the wedding day."
Rhaegar was speechless upon hearing this.
One or two can't control the vassals, so it's no wonder that the mountain clans in the valley rebelled.
"In this case, you go forward..."
Rhaegar put his hand on Gerald's shoulder and gave him an idea.
After all, it was his former aunt's wedding. He came here on behalf of the royal family and couldn't watch the wedding being messed up.
Jero's eyes lit up and he quickly thanked them and walked towards the two bastards who were yelling.
Swish——
Pulling out his sword, Jero slashed the table with his sword and shouted: "Shut your mouths, your skin is itching, aren't you!?"
For a moment, the scene fell silent.
The faces of Pace and Godrich, who had stirred up the storm, turned red and still glared at each other.
Pace was a vassal of Runestone City. He held his breath and no one refuted.
Godrich's head was covered with white hair, his shoulders were high and one was low, and he was as big as a weight.
He turned around, looked at Jero, and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Jero, look at your family's vassal, he actively provoked a war at your wedding!"
Having been involved in criminal dens for many years, Godrich has a cunning mind that seriously does not fit the image.
In a few words, he picked himself clean and blamed Pace.
"Godrich!"
Jero shouted loudly, looked at the two of them, and said in a low voice: "I don't care what grudges you have with Pace, you are not allowed to cause trouble in my castle."
"Nonsense, I have guest rights, how could I be the one to instigate a dispute!"
Godrich raised his head proudly, and his plump chin covered with white hair trembled.
"What do you say, Pace!"
Jello targeted the big man Pace again.
"Hmph! He killed my nephew and I'm just arguing the facts."
Pace was furious and pounded the table.
It can be seen that both sides have little respect for Rune Stone City.
Bang bang bang...
There was a burst of applause, and Rhaegar walked out of the crowd and asked, "I heard that there is someone with great martial virtue. Want to have a fight to liven up the atmosphere?"
Rhaegar's appearance changed the scene again.
The onlookers who were watching the excitement calmed their expressions and made more space.
"Prince, Pace of the Cowart family insulted me. He did not abide by the rights of guests!"
Godrich rolled his eyes and quickly poured dirty water on him.
"My lord, I have eyes and ears, I don't need you to explain."
Rhaegar stepped forward and stared at this ugly creature with cold eyes.
Godrich choked on his words and took two hurried steps back as he saw the prince close to his chest.
Sisters Village was originally the nest of a group of pirates and bandits who often came to disturb the kingdom.
Queen Visenya rode Vhagar around the Three Sisters Islands.
The sisters surrendered quickly and never dared to rebel again.
The fear of facing the dragon and the royal family has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the locals in Sisters Village from generation to generation.
"Shut your mouth or I'll cut him."
Rhaegar's voice was cold, and he did not hide his contempt for him.
After saying that, he looked at Jero and pretended to be suspicious: "Sir Jero, look at these two adults. They are really full of energy. How do you plan to deal with them?"
Godrich's eyes widened, and just as he was about to say that he had guest rights, he was kicked from behind.
Looking back, a middle-aged man in dark leather jacket showed warning.
This man is the Lord of the Three Sisters Islands, Marquis Balu Sunland.
Godrich's family is his direct vassal.
Marquis Balu Sangland was reminding him to shut his mouth.
With the crown prince's support, Jero smiled coldly and said what he had already prepared.
"Prince, since you adults think the wedding is too monotonous, why not hold a small competition and try your skills!"
Jero said as he glanced at the two people making trouble.
Aren't the two of them going to make a big fuss?
Then give them a place to let them loose.
"Okay! I think it's feasible!"
Leya's voice sounded suddenly, coming from behind.
She had just been called away by Zhan Sifu, heard the news from the attendant, and rushed over to check the situation.
Leya walked to the center of the crowd and said with a smile: "You want to be beaten, right? Then do it in a dignified way, like a man until your head is bloody!"
Valley people are relatively closed-minded, follow traditional customs, and are mostly rough in character.
As soon as he heard Leya's speech, he immediately started cheering.
"Yes! If you have a grudge, just have a fight..."
"My hands are itchy too, who will fight me..."
"..."
Everyone was there and the hall was noisy.
After a lot of trouble, Leya ordered someone to clear an open space in the back garden and move there with a group of guests.
Not far from the weirwood, everyone sat in a circle with a grassy area in the middle.
Pace and Godrich were pushed to the grass by you, their expressions were very ugly.
"Let's do it, two adults!"
Leia crossed her arms, her eyes cold.
Rega said from the side: "Be careful. On the wedding day, it's better to see blood."
"Fight! Fight! Fight!"
The nobles watching the excitement were shouting, and some even placed bets on who would win.
Pace and Godrich were helpless, each took out their weapons and faced off fiercely.
The two were roasted on the fire. If they didn't fight, their names of shame would be with them for the rest of their lives.
"Ah! Go to hell!"
Pace roared angrily, raised his sword and struck at his head.
Dang clang——
Godrich swung his machete to block, kicked him in the knee, tilted the blade, and slashed across the opponent's chest.
A sting.
Pace's shirt was torn, revealing a bloody gash, and his head was cut off on one side.
