Chapter 186 Allison and Damon
Leaving behind the retaining vassals, Rhaegar was held by Rhaenyra's arm and returned to the bedroom.
As soon as she entered the door, Rhaenyra couldn't wait to say: "Jenny is wooing those noble ladies and ladies. She promised the two noble ladies to take over the family."
"It was expected."
Rhaegar was lying on the bed, his reaction was unremarkable.
"Jenny discussed it with you?"
Rhaenyra studied him, her eyes unkind.
"Jenny is smarter than you. The Arryn branch of Seagull Town has fallen, and Arnold's branch of the Arryn family is also finished."
Rhaegar looked like he should take it for granted and said with a smile: "Next, she will return to the Eyrie City to win over other Arryn branches and comfort the families of the victims, so as to attract a group of loyal followers."
The Black Wedding did kill many nobles.
Among those people, there were those who obeyed Jenny's orders, and there were also those who ignored and opposed them.
All these people died, plus the traitors were eliminated.
The power structure in the Valley is emptier than ever.
Duchess Janey, who is at the pinnacle of power, seizes the opportunity and will form a valley regime with consistent decrees.
Moreover, only the noble patriarchs and heirs died, while the knights and soldiers raised by the nobles were not lost.
The overall strength of the valley has not diminished.
As long as Janey withstands the pressure and relies on the royal family, she will be the biggest beneficiary after the rebellion.
Rhaenyra was shocked when she heard this and covered her mouth: "You mean, it's possible that Jenny..."
"Shh!"
Rhaegar whispered: "Don't make wild guesses, she was also in danger with us."
In his opinion, Arnold was colluding with cronies to rebel, and Janey was probably behind it.
But the price of Jobert's serious injury and the black wedding is too high, and it implies endless risks.
Jenny most likely took it lightly. She didn't expect Arnold and the Gaoshan clan to be so crazy.
…
Another bedroom.
Zhan Sifu was lying on the bed, her face pale and still unconscious.
Crunch——
The door was pushed open, and Jenny walked in slowly.
Sitting on the edge of the bed and looking at her friend's face, Jenny held her handkerchief and gently wiped the sweat from her forehead.
"Zhan Sifu, you have to be strong and wake up quickly."
Jenny lowered her eyes, held her hand, and whispered: "Jobert is old, I need you to help me share the pressure."
She won over most of the noble ladies and ladies tonight.
Jero and Old Green also obeyed her orders.
Her shaky position as duchess will soon be secure.
…
King's Landing.
News of the assassination of the Archbishop of the Seven Gods spread like wildfire.
Rumors spread throughout King's Landing that the High Septon had molested his teeth in a brothel before he died.
Not only one archbishop was assassinated, but also more than a dozen priests of high status.
They all died in a certain brothel, with their throats cut and their dicks cut off and stuffed into their mouths.
In just three days, the topic about the Church of the Seven Gods caused an uproar.
Also questioned was the new Civil Affairs Minister Otto Hightower.
Someone discovered that Otto's money to help poor people came from the national treasury.
The money withdrawn from the treasury was divided into two.
Part of it was exchanged for food to help poor people, and most of the rest was donated to the Church of the Seven Gods.
Rumors spread everywhere.
Regardless of whether the matter is true or not, Otto Hightower's reputation is notorious among civilians.
Red Fort.
Allison and Otto sat across from each other and had dinner together.
Otto chewed the steak calmly, as if he didn't hear the rumors.
"Father, someone is pouring dirty water on you. If this continues, you will be held accountable."
Allison frowned, not wanting to taste the delicious food in front of him.
"Don't worry."
Otto put down his knife and fork, took a sip of red wine, and said, "I haven't touched any of the treasury's money, and Lord Linman knows it all."
He did have financial dealings with the Archbishop.
But the money came from the Hightowers.
After returning to the center of power, how could he leave loopholes for others to attack and eliminate?
Allison said irritably: "But your partner was killed in a brothel, and scandals are everywhere."
Even while living deep in the Red Keep, the High Septon's scandals reached her ears.
One can imagine how much reaction the people of Junlin had.
"Wrong, we just entered King's Landing together, not as partners or allies."
Otto shook it off, shook his head and laughed: "To be honest, I didn't expect Max to be so stupid, but it doesn't matter."
He is the Minister of Civil Affairs, and his immediate task is King's Landing's street sanitation improvement plan.
Helping the poor is just a trick to win people's hearts.
By the way, let's try how deep the water in King's Landing is.
Sure enough, you will know once you try it.
A group of assassins killed the Archbishop of the Church of the Seven Gods without anyone noticing, spreading the scandal and throwing dirt on him.
This is not a warning to him.
Don't mess around, or you'll cut his throat.
Otto was not surprised by this, but was happy that it was Max, that idiot, who died, not him.
This means that he can stay in King's Landing and carry out his duties.
After thinking for a while, Otto muttered: "One thing is more troublesome. The underground forces in King's Landing are intricately entangled, and my secrets in the past few years were too weak."
To get something done, information is important.
He had to find a way to regain a new information network and understand what was happening in King's Landing.
Allison raised his head after hearing this and stared at his father in confusion.
Otto leaned back in his chair and said gently: "You know who has a complete intelligence network."
"But……"
Allison wanted to refute, but Otto waved his hand and interrupted: "What is in hand is important. We need more allies."
With that said, he stood up and walked out of the room without giving her a chance to refuse.
Allison looked at his father's leaving back with dissatisfaction in his eyes and clasped his nails hard.
After a while, he pounded the table hard, straightened his clothes and stood up.
Pushing open the door, a white knight was guarding the door, with a face identical to that of Ilic.
Alison adjusted his condition and took a deep breath: "Sir Alec, come with me to the dungeon."
"Yes, Your Highness the Queen."
Alec followed her without squinting.
After a while, we entered the Red Keep dungeon.
Seeing the graceful Allison, the prisoners in the dungeon's eyes lit up and they uttered obscenities.
Alec saw the opportunity, grabbed the hair of one of the prisoners who was sticking out his tongue, and slammed it against the iron fence.
He smashed his head until his head was bleeding and he fell unconscious.
Allison turned his head and whispered: "Thank you, Sir."
"The duty lies."
Alec responded calmly, holding the hilt of his sword and glancing at all the prisoners in warning.
No one dared to scream anymore, and they all retreated into dark corners.
"Sir, please wait here."
Walking deep into the dungeon, Allison called Alec and went to a cell alone.
Alec glanced at it, turned around and stood guard for the queen.
Allison stopped and looked at the people in the cell through the tight iron bars.
"Damon, I know you heard me."
Looking at the white-haired man sitting beside the bed, Allison took the initiative to speak.
