Game of Thrones: I Became a Crown Prince For a Day

Chapter 15 The Egg of Dream Fire

 “Those two old **** were basically murdering a young prince.”

Rhaegar felt numb when he mentioned this, and wanted to smash the shriveled heads of the two old maesters.

Let's see if there is anything in it besides knowledge and answers.

 Ilik smiled and said nothing, not interested in interfering with the king's teaching arrangements for the prince.

 Since the hunting in the royal forest half a year ago, the two of them have had little contact.

Until a few days ago, Viserys learned of the end of Rhaenyra's travels.

He then sent Ilic to Rhaegar, swearing to protect the safety of the king's eldest son and complete all assigned tasks.

Rhaegar didn't know his father's intentions.

 But with a reliable white knight by your side, why not?

 Coupled with the previous experience of sharing weal and woe, the two of them got along very well.

 like Ilic, a strict knight, can make a few harmless jokes with Rhaegar from time to time.

 “I’m tired, ser.”

 After sitting for a while, Rhaegar lost his patience and returned to the room followed by Ilic.

The Kingsguard are only responsible for protecting the safety of the King and those he designates.

 There is nothing that will not enter the prince's room, just stay outside the door.

Rhaegar was the first to come to the fireplace when he returned to his den.

There is a stove-like container placed there.

 Opening the lid of the stove, a burst of hot air hit my face.

Rhaegar faced the heat wave without feeling any strange.

He stretched out his head and looked into the stove. There was a dragon egg that was completely black and covered with diamond patterns.

 This is his dragon egg.

 Touching the hot surface of the dragon egg with his hand, Rega's eyes flashed with disappointment, and he sighed: "There is still no movement. When will the dragon hatch?"

 Maybe it’s bad luck.

Rhaegar's egg never showed any sign of hatching, and lay like a stone in its container for six years.

 It is customary to stroke the dragon egg and talk to the dragon egg to oneself.

Rhaegar thought this would help the eggs hatch.

 After getting thirsty from chatting, Lei Jia closed the lid of the container and ended today’s dragon egg communication.

Pouring himself a cup of hot water, Rhaegar muttered to himself: "Fortunately, that fool Aegon's dragon egg didn't hatch, otherwise it would be a huge shame."

Rhaegar felt much better when he thought that his stupid brother had not hatched the dragon egg.

 It is a pity that my dragon egg did not hatch.

 But if the brother's dragon egg hatches, it will only be more worrying.

 …

 The sun rises and the moon sets, and the days pass day by day.

 Rhaenyra finally returned to King's Landing.

Viserys, who wanted to save face, did not come forward. As the queen, Aris led the princes and ministers out of the city to greet him.

The two of them seemed like close friends who had not seen each other for many years. They held their arms closely and talked and laughed happily under the gaze of the subjects.

Such a harmonious scene naturally caused the people to cheer and applaud.

Rhaegar's ban was automatically lifted and he was also in the queue to greet him.

　　Following behind the two women, watching their friendly exchanges, Rhaegar couldn't explain why, but felt uncomfortable in his heart.

　　Tugging at Ilic's white robe, Rhaegar asked secretly: "Are all women getting along like this?"

Ilic looked around to make sure no one was paying attention to them, and lowered his voice: "Mostly yes, the queen and princess are the eldest among women, so they are more terrifying."

“Because of power? But my sister is already the heir.”

Rhaegar expressed his confusion.

Ilic shook his head: "It is taboo to make irresponsible remarks about members of the royal family. I can only say that you should be careful."

"I will be hurt too, but I have no intention of involving the throne?" Rhaegar asked.

"I don't know, but as the old saying goes, you must be on guard against others." Ilic said meaningfully.

Rhaegar smiled: "Then please do your best to protect my safety, Sir."

 “The duty lies.”

There were many people and many eyes, so the two of them stopped talking and accompanied the two heroines this time to finish the trip.

　It wasn’t until night that everyone stepped into the gate of the Red Fort. Even though he was angry about Rhaenyra's decision to return home, Viserys did not embarrass his daughter.

 Hold a grand banquet to wash away the dust for her.

Rhaegar didn't like the noisy environment, so he ate some cakes and dishes hastily, and then left the table with the gift that Rhaenyla had prepared for him.

 …

Rhaenyra returned home, and the biggest beneficiary was Rhaegar.

Not only can you get out of the Red Fort and walk around, but the daily courses have also been greatly improved.

  There is no need to study for eight hours, you only need to study for three hours in the morning, and the remaining time is free for activities.

 Even after-school homework has been cancelled.

At this, Rhaegar shouted long live and couldn't be happier.

　　When Rhaenyra visited him, he kissed her twice.

 These days went on for a while.

 Then, the Red Fort became lively again.

 The fifth wedding anniversary of King and Queen Allison.

In order to thank Allison for his five years of companionship, Viserys waved his hand and decided to hold a grand tourney.

 Prepare to invite all nobles and knights across the country to attend.

 Huge rewards have also been prepared for the champions.

 Inspire that group of enthusiastic young people to actively sign up and bring him a wonderful collision of blood and iron.

Whether Allison liked it or not, Viserys loved this kind of competition.

 Thanks to a good grandfather, the former king Jaehaerys accumulated a lot of wealth for the national treasury.

  Viserys held banquets and jousts.

The servants in the Red Castle have long been accustomed to it, and under Allison's management, they organized the tournament beautifully.

 Not long after, the king and queen’s fifth anniversary came.

 The tournament was as prosperous as expected, and the inns in King's Landing were full of people.

 It is rumored that the business of some brothels has also increased greatly.

Prostitutes couldn't close their legs when receiving customers, and many aristocratic gentlemen were even willing to fight **** battles just to sweat.

 …

 That day, Allison prepared a sumptuous banquet.

The guests enjoyed the brutal jousting with Viserys. When they got tired of watching, they ate and drank in the nearby banquet hall, which was a great time.

Rhaegar and Rhaenyra sat under Viserys's seat, watching the contest below.

 The court is where the knights charge.

 Two knights, wearing armor and holding sharp lances, charged head-on on war horses.

At the time of the charge, a black-armored knight raised his spear and accurately stabbed the opponent's shoulder.

boom-

  Under the huge inertia, the knight on the opposite side was instantly carried away, his body drew a parabola in mid-air, and he fell heavily on the muddy field.

 When he landed, the knight under the armor screamed, and one leg was pinned under his **** in a twisted posture.

As he rolled and howled, Rhaegar noticed that he had only one arm waving.

 The arm that was hit on the other side hung down weakly.

“Eighty percent of the time, the shoulder blade is broken. If not treated in time, it will leave a lifelong disability in the future.”

Elic, who was standing behind him, explained to him in a low voice.

Rhaegar had never seen such a scene, and couldn't bear it: "If the treatment is not timely, he will also become disabled, and the leg will be useless."

 “That’s what a competition is, the important thing is to determine the winner.”

 Ilic persuaded Rhaegar to accept the cruelty of reality.

“It’s hard to imagine that a group of talented young people with martial arts skills want to participate in a martial arts competition. How many of them can return intact?”

Rhaegar was in a bad mood and did not understand the purpose of this contest.

Ilic patiently said: "The kingdom is in a period of peace, young people have nowhere to vent their passion, and there are many people who want to win the king's attention."

Rhaegar cannot hatch dragon eggs for the time being, so he will choose the path of dragon training.

　　guess which dragon the author arranged for him?

The contract for the work was completed yesterday and an additional chapter has been added.
