Chapter 245 The Troubles in King's Landing

After discussing the troop training plan, Rega handed over the new mission.

Moved thousands of slaves outside King's Landing to Harrenhal.

This matter, along with selecting soldiers in Flea Bottom, was handed over to Gray Worm.

Gray Worm is taciturn but fast as fire.

After receiving the mission, he walked directly out of the hall.

In the end, only True, the delisted maester, was left.

Rhaegar hadn't talked much with him yet, and he only knew that he was an introverted, timid big man.

Tru was very knowledgeable and had obtained links of black iron, bronze, silver, and Valyrian steel.

Representing respectively: Ravenology, Astronomy, Medicine, Magic and Occultism.

Among them, Valyrian steel links are very rare.

Only one bachelor in a hundred can obtain it.

It was Tru's interest in magic and the occult that led him to secretly develop wildfire and become an expelled maester.

After asking Tru about his wishes, Rhaegar found that he had no lofty ideals.

On the contrary, he is a nerd who never leaves home and likes to do scientific research.

The biggest hope at this time is to find a place to stay and maintain a living.

Of course Rhaegar couldn't let such a talent go.

With a wave of his hand, he was allowed to stay in Harrenhal and serve.

Just start by smelting black dragon stone.

Rhaegar didn't have time to smelt the dragon stone, so he just gave the spell to Tru and let him do it.

To this end, a commitment was also made.

Rhaegar looked serious: "On the day when Harrenhal and Dragon's Nest are completed, I will write to the Hightower family to help you return to the city and restore your status as a bachelor."

House Hightower is the domain of Oldtown.

The school city is built in the old city, which usually gives it a bit of face.

Helping a down-and-out bachelor is easy.

"Yes, I promise to complete the mission, Your Highness."

Tru was excited, her fat belly trembling.

For a bachelor with civilian background, bachelor status is the highest honor.

Getting my diploma back is more important than anything else.

…

At night.

Bonfires were lit on the walls of Harrenhal to drive away the darkness.

Rhaegar rode the dragon to the north shore of the Eye of God Lake.

The shore was illuminated by firelight, and a crude lumber mill was first built here.

Each strong laborer carried the wood and handed it over to the carpenter for processing.

"Let's go, glutton."

Lei Jia glanced at it for a few times, then flew to Thousand Faces Island with his dragon.

The Dragon's Nest was his childhood wish.

Nowadays, Qianmian Island, which has geothermal heat, is the first choice for building a dragon nest.

But transporting materials requires ships.

The lumber mill processes wood, followed by shipyards and docks.

During the reign of Black-Hearted Heron, there were shipyards and docks on the north shore of God's Eye Lake.

Use this to fight against enemies advancing from both sides of the Divine Eye Lake.

It brought heavy losses to Aegon the Conqueror's armies.

However, Lei Jia is not interested in forming a naval army.

I just want to get some ships to transport materials to Qianmian Island.

The glutton flew across the wide water surface of Shenyan Lake and rushed to the sky above Thousand Faces Island.

Flap your wings and land slowly.

Rhaegar stepped off the dragon's back and headed straight for the hot spring.

After nearly a month, Hot Spring Eye has undergone earth-shaking changes.

The hot spring eye, which was originally only the size of a basin, suddenly expanded to several meters wide.

A weirwood happens to be within the range of the hot spring, and its entire roots are covered by the spring water, becoming a tree in the water.

The hot spring water is clear and white steam is evaporating.

The roots of the weirwood tree are entangled, and the human face on the trunk is twisted, giving it a different kind of broken beauty.

"Huh~ The underground temperature is getting higher and higher, the dragon's nest must be feasible."

Rhaegar exhaled a breath and took off his clothes as he walked forward.

Wow...

Jumping into the water, leaning against the roots of the weirwood, he raised his head and closed his eyes in enjoyment.

"Hmm~~"

The water was scalding hot, and Rhaegar let out a comfortable groan and spread his legs.

The hot springs were very hot, which suited his heat tolerance.

Gradually, he began to feel sleepy.

…

King's Landing.

The Red Fort, the king's palace.

A burst of fierce applause passed, and only heavy breathing was left in the bedroom.

Viserys lay on his back on the bed, his chest heaving, too tired to open his eyes.

At this time, he would be grateful to his eldest son.

Since the festering wounds on his body recovered, his body functions seem to be twenty years younger.

"Viserys, my voice is hoarse. Get me a glass of water..."

Allison lay in her husband's arms, the girl's white and tender skin flushed, and her throat soft and soft as she begged.

Although I don’t really like my husband’s hard work, which makes me feel bored.

But it has to be said that she had a bad premonition that she was going to have five children.

"Drink slowly, Allison."

Panting heavily, Viserys supported his wife thoughtfully and poured water to her mouth.

Allison drank all the water in the glass in one gulp and circled the wall of the glass with the tip of his tongue.

"Gulu~"

Viserys felt his heart heat up after seeing it, and regained his strength.

"Viserys, I have something to tell you."

Alisson calmed down his breathing and opened up the topic in due course.

Viserys hugged his wife and asked with satisfaction, "Tell me."

Alisson took the initiative tonight and he knew this would happen.

"The children are getting older every day, and I want you to think about them."

Allison raised her pretty face and said pitifully: "As the eldest brother, Rhaegar has the prince's palace and Harrenhal. Rhaenyra also has Dragonstone as a fief. The other children have not yet been found."

No wonder she was impatient, the two heirs of the late queen occupied the court and enjoyed the most generous privileges.

Her children had nothing.

Oh, right.

It can't be said that there is nothing, Aegon took a position as an army staff officer on the Stepstone Islands.

Viserys lowered his eyes and calmed down after hearing this.

Reason prevails.

He understands Allison's psychology and feels the treatment of the children is unfair.

As a father, he really didn't have a bowl of water that was balanced.

Because he is the king, this bowl of water cannot be balanced at all.

Rhaenyra and Rhaegar were both the fruits of his love with his late wife Emma Arryn.

Emotionally speaking, it is indeed better than several other children.

In addition, Rhaenyra resigned as crown prince, which was a great sacrifice, and he has been trying every means to make up for it.

Rhaegar was the eldest son and the crown prince of the kingdom.

He is currently the most capable male heir in the Targaryen dynasty.

At only 13 years old, the two dragons made a surprise attack on the Three Women's Kingdom and put down the rebellion in the Riverlands.

With this kind of record, looking at the entire Targaryen family, they are among the best geniuses.

As long as he does not die young or become insane, he will definitely be a wise king.

He is willing to spend money and energy to support such a pair of children.

Seeing that he was still silent, Allison reached out to touch his chin, rubbed his beard, and whispered: "Aegon works hard on the Stepstone Islands. He is about the same age as Rhaegar, isn't he..."

Helena and her two younger sons were too young, and Aegon was the only son who could do anything.

Although Aegon is usually dissolute and unkempt.

But Allison didn't think Aegon was a loser.

Both Viserys and Daemon visited a brothel in King's Landing when they were young, and they were the same.

Aegon had at least been on the battlefield and accomplished feats while riding Sunfire.

Regardless of age and order, he is several times stronger than the heirs of some big families.

Viserys thought and thought, hesitating.

In his heart, Aegon was not like a human being.

As a prince and assistant, it is still better to choose.

"Do you think Aegon should have a fiefdom?"

Viserys' eyes flickered and he went straight to the point.

Allison looked happy and nodded slightly.

Viserys rubbed his brows and sighed: "If you had told me earlier, I could still have kept Stone Fence City. There is currently no suitable castle for him in the kingdom."

A piece of fiefdom is not just given.

Aegon is a prince, and he becomes a prince after being sealed.

There must be castles and palaces, and enough servants and citizens to ensure the royal family's face.

If there is no free castle to grant, an open space must be sealed for him to carry out difficult land reclamation.

It's better to stay in King's Landing and be a pleasure prince.

Allison knew this and had a plan in place.

He sat up, looked directly into her husband's eyes, and said seriously: "The War on the Stepstone Islands is almost over, and Aegon can stay there."

She always remembered Jenny's analysis.

The Stepped Stone Islands are stuck between two continents and are an important shipping route.

Now that the Three Women's Kingdom is in decline, the danger has been greatly reduced.

Aegon was sealed on the Stepstone Islands, so the treasury would naturally fund the construction of a fortress and leave a large number of troops behind.

It is simply a perfect fiefdom.

Viserys was startled when he heard this, and murmured: "The Stepstone Islands!"

A land of right and wrong, where disputes are inevitable.

In his heart, there is a person who is more suitable to be sealed in the Stone Steps Islands.

It can be regarded as compensation for each other.

Allison gently shook her husband's shoulders and urged, "Viserys, what do you think?"

"That's a good suggestion. Let me think about it carefully."

Viserys made a habit of escaping, rolled over and hugged his wife, closing his eyes.

When you are unsure about something, put it off as long as you can.

…

Flea Bottom.

In a certain brothel.

Several figures in black robes walked into the brothel door and headed towards the second-floor compartments.

Crunch——

The door opened, and there was an elegant woman with a graceful figure wrapped in tulle sitting inside.

"White maggot, I've heard its name for a long time."

The leading man in black robe lifted his hood, revealing Otto's deep face.

Messaria put her hands on her legs, stared at the other person, and said in a magnetic and hoarse voice: "Sir Otto's famous name is so powerful."

Otto's reputation suffered greatly because of the street-cleaning program.

The infamy spread throughout King's Landing.

"Haha, I just take it as a compliment."

Otto's eyes flickered and he sat down opposite Messalia.

Messaria's expression remained the same, indifferent as if she had no desire, and said: "Master Otto, why did you go all the way to find me?"

"White Maggot Xiaomei is the most secretive character in Flea Bottom, but she knows most of the information."

Otto told her origins and extended an olive branch frankly: "I need an intelligence manager, how about you serve me?"

"I'm afraid not. I have my own loyalties."

Mesalia refused without hesitation.

Otto narrowed his eyes and said calmly: "Prince Daemon is imprisoned in prison and will not be able to get out for a short time."

Messaria was once Daemon's mistress, and the top brass in the court knew about it.

In 105 AC, Rhaegar was just born and Queen Emma Arryn died.

Damon, Messaria and others were talking nonsense in the brothel, calling Rhaegar "the one-day crown prince."

Moreover, Messaria is pregnant with Daemon's illegitimate child.

Daemon was overjoyed and hurriedly found a dragon egg to offer, intending to place it in the cradle of his unborn child.

The dragon egg was originally in the unconscious Rhaegar's cradle.

The follow-up is that Rhaenyra rides Syrax to Dragonstone Island to get the dragon egg back from Daemon for her brother.

After this incident has passed.

Viserys, who valued the dragon eggs, was completely furious. He not only drove Daemon out of King's Landing, but also ordered him to send his mistress Messalia back to Lys.

Damon couldn't bear the pressure and did as he was told.

Messaria crossed the sea by boat, but encountered a storm on the way and her unborn child was aborted.

This incident was also one of the triggers for the first break between Viserys and Daemon.
