Chapter 573: Allison Returns to King's Landing

The next day, the weather was fine.

King's Landing, Mud Gate.

"Hiss!"

A slender silver young dragon soared in the sky, crying as it flew over the Blackwater Bay.

Rhaegar stood on the dock, watching a large royal ship slowly sail away.

Hundreds of meters away, there were a few small figures standing at the end of the ship.

Baelon was dressed in black, holding Lyanna's hand with his right hand, who looked reluctant, and waved towards the dock with all his strength.

The three siblings went to Mir, away from their parents' sight for the first time.

"Prince, the sea is rough, you should go into the cabin and rest."

Alec was rough but thoughtful. He took off his white robe and put it on the prince and princess.

Baelon rubbed his nose and said sullenly, "Wait a minute, Dany is still riding the dragon."

"elder brother."

Lyanna's eyes were red, and she buried her head in Baelon's arms, feeling as safe as a kitten.

Belron rubbed her head and comforted her seriously: "Don't be afraid, we are real dragons."

"Hiss..."

A young dragon's roar came from behind, as if responding to this sentence.

Alec turned around and frowned immediately.

I saw Jiao Ma, dressed in coarse linen clothes, with an embarrassed look on his face, rubbing his dark crooked nose, holding an iron cage containing a baby dragon in his hand.

Seeing someone noticed her, she pretended to be calm and said, "I'm just taking a look. Dragon breeders have to go through this."

A day ago, she was an intern student on a work-study program at the Royal Academy.

Unfortunately, he was caught during his "thrifty study" and was expelled from the school.

Belron felt sorry for her and recruited her into the ranks of dragon trainers.

"Well, the journey on the sea is long, and it would be nice to have someone to accompany Womackus."

Baeron stepped in to smooth things over and took good care of the civilian girl who had helped him.

"Tsk, humph."

Castor has a carefree personality. He winked at the little brother and slipped away with the iron cage.

Alec saw it and frowned so hard that he could kill a fly.

……

The big ship gradually disappeared, and Rhaegar looked away with regret.

Not far away, a large ship flying the Seahorse flag was anchored.

The sailors were on standby, loading the cargo onto the ship.

Rhaenyra, wearing a long red dress, talked face to face with the serious-looking sea snake.

"The King has come to Lys, thank you for your fleet's escort."

"I don't take credit for it, Your Majesty."

The sea snake put his hands behind his back, seemingly modest but actually unable to hide his pride, and suddenly said: "The war has just ended, and there are many pirates roaming around the Stone Steps Islands. You have to be careful."

"There should be naval garrisons in the Stone Steps Islands, right?"

Rhaenyra was puzzled.

"Originally, there were some, but the combat effectiveness of the garrison at sea would be discounted."

The sea snake was in high spirits and spoke eloquently: "Volantis and Slaver's Bay are gathering places for mercenaries and wandering knights. In addition, there are pirates from the Three Women's Kingdoms led by Tyrosh. The troops of the Stone Archipelago alone are far from enough."

It had only been a few years since the Targaryens conquered both sides of the Narrow Sea.

The rule of the Free Cities and Slaver's Bay is deeply rooted and has long since formed its own armed groups.

Originally, after the Three Women's Kingdom was destroyed, these mercenary groups could have shifted their focus to Volantis and Slave Bay for development.

Now that one of the latter two has been conquered and the other has been destroyed, the mercenary group is homeless.

Cutting off someone's source of income will inevitably cause trouble.

Rhaenyra listened carefully, her eyes occasionally glancing at Rhaegar who was looking out at the bay, and she said casually, "I will bring Syrax with me. Moon Dancer and Trickster will also be considered as a fighting force."

The responsibility of clearing out the pirates was originally given to Lannar.

The rider is pregnant, and Vhagar cannot go into battle alone.

"Just in case, it's better to send a warship for protection."

The sea snake was very generous. It turned its head and called a young man over: "Adam, come over and meet His Majesty."

"Yes, my lord."

Adam was moving goods. He dropped his work and rushed over when he heard the noise.

The sea snake held Adam's shoulder and said with a confident smile, "Adam from Hull Town, one of the best sailors in my fleet, has made many contributions."

Rhaenyra looked him up and down, memories flashing through her eyes, and asked in surprise, "Are you the shipwright who saved Rhaenyra and Maekar?"

"It is I, Your Majesty."

Adam was a little shy, and his hands, which didn't know where to put, showed his excitement.

Rhaenyra smiled slightly, her eyes wandering between Adam and the sea snake, and said calmly, "I haven't thanked you for what happened last time, so I owe you a favor."

Looking at her, it seems that something is wrong.

Adam was still very young, his emotions were not revealed on the surface, he smiled broadly: "I will definitely protect the safety of your Majesty and the little princes."

"Okay, stop talking nonsense."

The sea snake was more cautious and achieved its goal of driving Adam away. Finally, it reminded: "After arriving in Rees, please take good care of Lannar."

"rest assured."

Rhaenyra agreed readily, paying attention to Rhaegar who was about to turn and leave.

I wanted to say goodbye properly.

Unexpectedly, Rhaegar didn't even look at this side, and left directly with the Kingsguard.

Rhaenyra was in a trance for a moment, and her eyes lost focus.

"Stop it, stay away from him!"

Suddenly, Benilla's loud shout was heard.

Rhaenyra was startled and looked sideways.

Benilla's face was full of anger. She opened her arms to protect Imon behind her and confronted the others without giving in.

Maris's face looked grim, and she stood there with her chest heaving up and down.

She was dressed very elegantly, in a light yellow long skirt and her hair was braided in front of her ravine.

Benilla glared at him and refused verbally: "Imon will not accept your gift, don't come near me!"

Imon looked aggrieved and hid timidly behind Benilla.

The news of their engagement has not spread yet, but their relationship is closer than ever.

Maris held an exquisite gift box in her hand, inside of which was a dagger inlaid with rubies. She said with a dark face, "I just want to say farewell to the prince."

boom--

Benila flipped over the gift box, and like a hen protecting her chicks, she warned loudly: "Put away your little thoughts, bad woman!"

Imon nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes!"

It's so disgraceful to start pulling and tugging at the same time.

Maris' chest heaved with anger and she opened her mouth to curse.

"What can I do for you, Lady Maris?"

Rhaenyra came over, her eyes darting across the fallen dagger, staring at it with a sharp hawk-like gaze. Maris immediately swallowed back what she wanted to say, forcing a smile: "No, no more."

After saying that, she lifted up her skirt which was mopping the ground and quickly fled the scene.

Rainier stared coldly, seeing through the other party's calculations at a glance.

Having failed to seduce Rhaegar before, she turned around and seduced her two sons.

It’s just a ridiculous dream!
"Well done."

Rainier turned around gracefully and praised Berniera.

Benilla successfully protected her calf and raised her chin proudly.

"Come with me!"

He raised his hands and put his arms around Eamon's neck, regardless of whether the other party resisted or not, and followed his adoptive mother's pace.

Eamon: ...

They are all bad women, with tears streaming down their cheeks.

……

The fleet sailed out of the dock one by one, and Rhaegar returned to the Red Castle first.

Enter Maegor's Holdfast and go straight up the stairs.

"elder brother."

At a corner, Helena suddenly called him.

"Why are you here?"

Rhaegar stopped and saw the other man standing alone at the edge of the open-air corridor.

She was wearing a blue long dress, with her silver hair naturally scattered, and her pretty face exuded a hazy beauty.

It looks like I've been waiting for a long time.

Helena held her belly with both hands and said in a daze, "The delegation from the North has left, and Lord Lin Man complained to me about the deficit in the treasury."

"He asked you to persuade me to talk less about the money, right?"

After a moment's thought, Rhaegar guessed what had happened and jokingly said, "I really hope that every chancellor of the exchequer can be as dedicated as he is, willing to spend every penny in half."

Helena nodded vaguely and agreed: "Yes, he said you spend money recklessly."

Rega looked at her, and when he thought of old man Lin Man's eager look for help, he sighed silently.

Really good at finding help.

Even if it was an enemy, there was no such direct way of filing a complaint.

A little silence.

Rhaegar took Helena's hand and put his other hand on her belly, asking curiously, "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Lannar was feeling unwell due to pregnancy vibration, so she was given a vaccination.

"It's fine, just like usual."

Helena tilted her head and said, "We need more flames."

Rhaegar was slightly startled.

……

Midsummer has passed and early autumn has arrived.

King's Landing.

The sun was high in the sky, radiating scorching sunlight. The weather was still hot and people were sweating profusely.

The Dragon Gate, the majestic city gate opens.

Gulu gulu...

On the cracked road, two horse-drawn carriages were moving one after the other, crushing the lush grass.

The former flew a three-headed red dragon flag and was escorted throughout by fearless men in black armor and spiked helmets.

The car curtain opened and a head popped out.

Allison stole a glance at the Fearless around him and looked hopefully at the convoy behind him.

She came from Harrenhal.

The other team's convoy formed a long line and was obviously more respectable than hers.

The most important thing is that the accompanying knights carried a large flag with a green background and a tall tower on their shoulders, which meant that it was the caravan of the Hightower family.

"Is Selena up there?"

Allison had a questioning look in his eyes and silently retreated into the car.

She was allowed to return to King's Landing only after her eldest son Aegon married her niece Selena.

"I don't know what happened to my children."

Allison clasped his hands together, closed his tired eyes, and prayed quietly: "Seven Gods bless you."

……

Red Fort.

Leonor was busy directing the servants to prepare for the wedding ceremony.

From the throne room to the banqueting hall, from the front yard of the Red Keep to the godswood in the backyard.

Everything is fully furnished and just in order.

noon.

The guests arrived one after another and the wedding banquet was on track.

Rhaegar sat upright on the Iron Throne, watching Aegon and Selene complete a traditional Westeros wedding amid the recitation of missionaries.

The missionary's face was stern, and he said in a loud voice: "Prince Aegon, please cover the bride with the cloak."

Aegon didn't want to look at her any longer, and took off his cloak reluctantly and draped it over the shoulders of Selena, who had her makeup done beautifully.

In Westeros, the groom's cloak is given to the bride.

It symbolizes that the bride will live under the protection of her husband and enjoy the rights that a wife should have.

Then, Selena gave a kiss and the ceremony officially ended.

"Oh!!"

Daeron rushed out first, led by Aegon's cronies, picked up the unsuspecting Selena and ran away.

According to tradition, making a fuss in the bridal chamber is also an indispensable step.

The same thing happened with Aegon.

Maris led the team to attack, and together with a group of noble ladies, they almost stripped Aegon's pants off.

"Hahaha, well done!"

Rhaegar laughed heartily, pointed at Aegon who was trapped in the crowd of women, and said maliciously: "Hurry, don't let him get away!"

"No, no, no!"

Aegon pretended to be noble, holding up his belt with one hand and groping his balls with the other, unable to suppress his smile: "I really want to see it, let's do it in private."

The eyes of the noble ladies lit up and they attacked without restraint.

After a while, Aegon's scream was heard:
"Who pinched me?!"

Rhaegar heard the noise and laughed even more happily.

The traditional wedding in Westeros is different, full of the filth and aggressiveness of the aristocracy.

Fortunately, both he had chosen were ancient ceremonies of old Valyria.

At my wedding with Jenny, I was stingy and cancelled the wedding prank segment.
