Game of Thrones: I became a crown prince for a day

jingle——

The stone ball fell into the card slot in front of him, indicating that the crown prince was ready and the royal meeting officially began.

Tailan was the first to speak and said seriously: "Your Majesty, after many years, the Three Women Kingdom is showing signs of making a comeback."

"According to the latest news, passing ships near the Stepped Stone Islands were intercepted by an unknown pirate group."

Viserys looked grave and asked, "Are you sure this is the Kingdom of Three Women?"

"It's not confirmed yet, but it's almost certain." Tailan shook his head.

"The pirates of the Three Women Kingdom are a serious threat to the kingdom. We must not underestimate them by sending extra manpower to find out the information."

Viserys sighed.

He doesn't want war to break out in the kingdom, even on the Stepstone Islands far away overseas.

Tailan nodded in agreement, and the report ended.

Next up is Leonor.

The bloated Prime Minister put one hand on the desk and said slowly: "Your Majesty, the construction of the prince's palace for the prince has begun, and the cost is not small."

"It doesn't matter, just spend it from the treasury."

Viserys smiled and said to Rhaegar, "This is good news for you."

"Thank you, father."

Rhaegar sat back in his chair, smiling.

The fiefdoms of the crown princes of all dynasties were Dragonstone Island.

To compensate Rhaenyra, Dragonstone became her fiefdom until her death.

This resulted in Rhaegar not having his own fiefdom.

After several years of discussions, considering that the royal family will eventually spread out, both the crown prince and the prince should have a place to support them.

Viserys waved his hand and asked Rhaegar to choose a piece of territory to build the prince's palace.

The project started at the beginning of this year.

Due to the fact that the location of the palace is far away from King's Landing, materials and manual screening also take time, and the construction has not officially started until now.

Leonor finished his report.

Finance Minister Linman Bisbury stood up slowly, holding a report in his hand, why:

"Your Majesty, the prince has submitted a plan to rebuild the dragon's lair. The cost is extremely high and I am unable to specialize in it."

"Oh, let me see."

Viserys was confused and Cole passed the report to him.

After flipping through a few pages of paper, Viserys' face grew darker and darker as he looked at it.

Until the last line of writing, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Lega, the Dragon Cave is an important building of the royal family. It cost a lot to build. You actually want to demolish it and rebuild it?"

Rega looked calm and said the countermeasure he had thought of for a long time: "Father, you also said that the dragon's lair is extremely important."

"The current dragon lair can only be used as a detention place, not a nest suitable for dragons to live in."

"Demolishing the dragon's lair and rebuilding a lair more suitable for the dragon will help the family raise the dragon."

Rhaenyra raised her hands and said in support: "I agree!"

"I don't agree!"

Viserys interrupted sharply, with a sullen face and said angrily: "Look at your proposal. Just building a tower-like dragon's lair is not enough to consume all the stone materials of the entire royal territory. How much manpower and material resources does this require!?"

Of course he knew the importance of the dragon's lair to the family.

But firstly, he doesn't have a dragon, and secondly, he believes that power is the key to ruling the kingdom.

The amount of money required to rebuild the Dragon Cave can be seen on paper as to how huge it is. Even if the treasury is emptied, the construction may not be completed.

Earl Linman spoke at the right time: "Your Majesty, the construction of the Prince's Palace has already cost a lot of money. If we want to rebuild the Dragon Cave, I am afraid that the kingdom's finances will not be able to operate."

As Chancellor of the Exchequer, every gold coin in the treasury is his lifeblood.

He wanted to take out a lot of gold coins from his money bag, which made the old man feel very distressed.

Tailan also raised his hand and said: "The situation on the Stepped Stone Islands is unclear, and it is necessary to ensure that the national treasury is full."

"Yes, I veto the prince's proposal."

Jaspie raised his hand in protest.

The royal ministers denied it one after another. Viserys took a deep breath and finalized his decision: "Reject this plan. The country does not have that much money to waste."

"Well, the kingdom is always short of money."

After being rejected, Rhaegar was not discouraged and said: "The reconstruction of the dragon's lair can be postponed, but the reform plan must be passed."

The reform plan refers to increasing the number of dragon guards, dragon combat training, and reorganizing the research bachelor group...

Rhaenyra turned her head and looked at him in surprise.

During her time as Crown Prince, she was not qualified to sit on a chair.

Not to mention, the right to continuously propose plans to the Imperial Council.

Rhaenyra was suddenly aware of the gap between them.

Looking at her brother's side face, Rhaenyra was distracted for a moment.

Rhaegar was no longer a 6-year-old child, he had grown up.

She has long, silver-gold shawl hair, gloomy eyes with dark circles under her eyes, a high bridge of nose, and lips as thick as gel.

Paired with a tall and straight posture, a calm demeanor, and a noble appearance.

I don't know how many noble ladies in the king's territory were fascinated by him because of a chance meeting.

Suddenly, Rhaenyra's earlobes turned red and she quickly turned her head.

"Rhaegar is a grown man."

Rhaenyra's heart beat a little faster, Rhaenyra murmured in her heart.

No one paid attention to the princess's little thoughts.

A fierce discussion was held on the Dragon Cave reform plan.

Half an hour later.

After the discussion, Viserys made a decision and said: "Dragon's Lair can be reformed, but it must be done within its capabilities. If something goes wrong, stop it immediately."

"As you command, Father."

Recommended to pass the trial, Rhaegar hugged his father, very grateful.

He had no intention of passing the proposal to rebuild the Dragon's Lair from the beginning.

Reform was his main purpose.

The current Dragon Cave is still too weak and needs to be strengthened in all aspects.

Viserys felt helpless and squeezed his eldest son's arm, the muscles were strong and strong.

This gave him some comfort.

Just the sight of a healthy and intelligent heir can make people feel happy.

Viserys thought for a while and warned: "The dragon's lair is left to your own devices. After that, you will become the assistant of the ministers and learn how to manage the country."

The eldest son is not young anymore.

Activities only in the dragon's lair would be overkill.

It’s time to take over some political affairs and develop management skills early.

"No problem, Father."

Rhaegar understood his father's kindness and accepted it readily.

The dragon's lair matter was finalized, and the imperial meeting continued to discuss other political matters.

Rhaenyra had not been involved in government affairs for a long time and was not very interested in it.

She silently stood up from her chair, walked around the council table, and picked up the wine bottle placed on the fireplace.

He walked over to his father and poured a glass of wine.

Then he poured wine for each minister one by one.

The ministers nodded their thanks, and everything seemed to go back to a few years ago.

As a girl, Rhaenyra worked as a cupbearer, serving drinks while observing government affairs.

Finally walking to Rhaegar's side, Rhaenyra felt nostalgic and skillfully lifted the flagon.

Rhaegar took the first step to cover the wine glass and moved it aside.

He raised his head, looked at Rhaenyra who was a little disappointed, and said warmly: "You are no longer the cupbearer."

It must be said that after passing through girlhood, Rhaenyra's appearance became more and more beautiful.

It is worthy of the reputation of "Light of the Kingdom".

Rhaenyra smiled: "Something has to be done."

"Sit down, the meeting will end soon."

Rhaegar helped her sit back down and pushed the wine bottle towards her father who had finished the drink.
