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

night.

Burning King Tower, Hundred Furnaces Hall.

The hall was spacious and hollow, with thirty-four stoves and smooth stone floors.

At the long solid wooden table, Rhaegar had dinner with Rhaenyra and Helena.

Eating fruits that were out of season, Rhaenyra looked around and whispered: "Every time I come here, I feel so exaggerated."

She was afraid that if she spoke too loudly, the hall would be filled with echoes.

Harrenhal is a huge castle that the black-hearted Harren spent more than 40 years building.

The main hall of the castle alone is huge beyond imagination.

According to records, the space of Bailu Hall can accommodate an army.

"What stands out about Harrenhal is that it's big and solid, so just get used to it."

Rhaegar smiled, proud of his castle.

With the smelting method of black stone dragonstone, the progress of repairing Harrenhal has increased rapidly.

Except for necessary buildings such as flowstone courtyards, bathrooms, and horse corridors.

The five towers are the top priority.

After Balerion's burning, the five towers were twisted and deformed, their roofs burned into rubble.

Fortunately, the walls of the tower are thick enough, or incredibly thick.

The interior of the tower is unobstructed and can be simply modified.

On the outside of the tower, Lei Jia ordered people to remove a layer of the twisted and deformed wall and pour it with black dragon stone to form a new outer wall.

The roofs were all demolished and rebuilt, restoring the original height and floors.

The spire of the top floor is built in the style of the Stone Drum Tower on Dragonstone Island, with a stone sculpture of a giant dragon cast one by one.

The main tower, the Burning King Pagoda, has a dragon stone carved in the image of a glutton.

The Widow's Tower connected to the Burning King's Tower is carved with gray shadows of people who moved away from Dragonstone Island and lived on Thousand Faces Islet.

The Wailing Tower has a storage room on the ground floor and a huge cellar below. The tower is carved with Syracuse, which means harvest.

The Ghost Tower is connected to the rebuilt church, and the top of the tower is carved with Helena's Dream Fire.

In the last Tower of Terror, there really is no dragon to carve.

Use Aegon's sunfire to complete the dragons of the current generation of dragon masters in the Dragon family.

Repairs to the five towers were completed, and the style of Harrenhal changed dramatically.

Sweeping away the darkness and devastation of the past, it became magnificent and became the best castle in Westeros.

To avoid words.

Rhaegar also rebuilt the Church of the Seven Gods, cut down the weirwood trees that had been burned into dead wood, and only planted some ornamental trees in the godswood forest.

The amount of work alone took a full year and a half.

As a result, some of the walls of Harrenhal have not yet been completely completed and are still being repaired with black dragonstone.

Seeing the proud Rhaegar, Rhaenyra smiled knowingly and praised him.

One of the reasons why Rhaegar didn't return to King's Landing was that he was too busy with the construction work at Harrenhal and couldn't get away.

"I'm stuffed."

Helena put down her knife and fork, her cheeks bulging, and she took a sip of fruit wine.

Rhaegar chuckled and said, "When you're full, go back to bed. We'll go back to King's Landing tomorrow."

"Yeah, good night, brother."

Helena jumped off the chair, walked around the table, walked to Rhaegar and gave him a hug.

Then, looking at Rhaenyra who was tasting red wine, she approached briskly and reached out for a hug.

"Good night sister."

After saying that, Helena wiped her mouth and went upstairs from the hall stairs.

The Hundred Furnaces Hall is indeed too big, with stairs connecting two corridors and countless rooms.

There were only two siblings left in the hall, and Rhaenyra hesitated: "Rhaegar, you and Jeyne..."

"Fortunately, I went to see her three months ago."

Rega acted very calmly, without the awkwardness of the past, and said: "She understands my choice, and I will give her an explanation when I have the opportunity."

"As long as you know what's going on."

Rhaenyra nodded and asked no more questions.

Jenny is indeed very honest, staying peacefully in the valley, and only communicating through raven letters on weekdays.

Although she could not accept her betrayal, Rhaenyra was still filled with emotion.

Really tolerable.

When dinner was almost done, Rhaegar took out two pieces of paper from his arms and shared: "Taylan wrote to me a few days ago. There is a serious drought in Dorne, and mobs have begun to appear on the border."

Mind you, it's the mob.

A group of gangsters who were rampant, burning, killing and looting.

Rhaenyra took the two letters and looked at them, her expression a little solemn.

Dorne isn't the only one with problems.

There is also trouble for House Tyrell in Highgarden.

Duke Tyrell is old and has only one son who has been frail since childhood as his heir.

Not long ago, the heir contracted a cold and died on his bed in the academy.

Duke Tyrell had no other son to shoulder the responsibility of succeeding him, and he suffered a heavy blow for a while.

He sent a private message to Rhaegar, expressing in a cryptic way that he wanted to straighten an illegitimate child, and asked if he could get permission.

After reading the content of the letter, Rhaenyra looked displeased: "Rhaegar, you must not agree to Duke Tyrell's request. Your status absolutely prohibits you from granting approval in this regard."

"Don't worry, I didn't reply to him."

Rega calmly took a sip of the sweet fruit wine without taking it too seriously.

In Westeros, where blood is paramount, illegitimate children are a group that is not favored.

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

With his status, he is one of the people who can least support the status of an illegitimate child.

Assuming he supports a bastard son to succeed Highgarden, is there anyone who can support Aegon's claim to replace him?

After all, Aegon is a pure Targaryen, the second son of the king.

It's more legitimate than an illegitimate son standing upright.

Therefore, Rhaegar did not intend to wade into this muddy water.

Hearing this, Rhaenyra felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.

After a second thought, he said angrily: "The Tyrell and Tully families are really the same as each other. They are all worried about their heirs."

Old Tully's eldest son died in the rebellion, and Riverrun lost its heir.

For three years, he had been undecided between his two second sons and his grandson.

Logically speaking, the line of succession should be the second son, with the grandson last in line.

But the two sons are too incompetent, ambitious and talented, and stupid.

Although Sun Tzu is mediocre, he has seen it through.

Old Tully wanted to make his grandson his heir, and the two sons joined forces to make trouble, causing chaos in Riverrun.

Rhaegar couldn't help but let Tully fend for himself.

Looking at the aggrieved Rhaenyra, Rhaegar smiled helplessly: "But these two families are the most loyal to the royal family, and we cannot ignore them."

"It's annoying not to mention them."

Rhaenyra raised her eyebrows and huffed.

Rega blinked: "It's late at night, go to sleep."

"Okay, serve your queen to bed."

Rhaenyra's voice was gentle, and she waited with open arms.

Lei Jia smiled, stood up and picked her up.

…

The next day.

Early in the morning, noisy voices came from the walls of Harrenhal, as craftsmen repaired the walls.

Most of these craftsmen came from King's Landing, dispatched by Maester Menas of the Dragon's Den.

The rest are slaves and natives of the Riverlands...

Rhaegar had probably calculated.

There are probably more than a thousand craftsmen of various types living in Harrenhal, and there are four to five thousand people including their families.

Fortunately, the castle is big enough to accommodate these people.

"Hiss-"

"Hiss..."

Three dragon roars came in succession, sweeping over the city wall with strong winds.

The craftsman steadied his steps and looked up enviously.

The sky was clear and clear, and the gluttons as black as coal took the lead, and the shadows of their wings covered a large area of ​​land.

Meng Huo was slightly smaller in size, carrying Helena with bright eyes, one person and one dragon shuttled between the clouds.

Syracuse is the smallest, only a little more than one-third the size of Glutton, and has just left the sub-adult category.

Hanging behind two adult dragons.

The three dragons circled the vast Divine Eye Lake and soared toward the southeast, which is a shorter distance.

Flying dozens of miles away from Harrenhal, a large village and town without city walls came into view.

Looking down from the sky, villages and towns cover a large area and are crowded with people.

Interestingly, the houses in the villages and towns have strange shapes, with round stone walls and conical roofs made of wooden boards.

From a distance, it looks like a big mushroom with a brown cover and a gray stem.

This is the mushroom set!

A trading bazaar composed of free people, slaves, and women and children taken in by Flea Bottom who were loyal to Rhaegar.

The main products are mainly specialties, leather goods and handicrafts from various places.

Rhaegar purchased several fruit groves, and there were winemakers among the slaves, who brewed a sweet fruit wine with rich fruit aroma and refreshing taste.

It is also one of Mushroom Ji’s best-sellers.

After taking root in the Riverlands, mushroom markets appeared and became the focus of merchants from the Riverlands, the Crown Lands, and even the Valley, Reach, and Stormlands.

The wealth brought in increases exponentially every year.

"Hiss..."

The glutton's eyes flashed with arrogance, and he flapped his wings to cross over this gathering place of small bugs.

…

King's Landing.

The sun is gradually rising, and the sunlight is shining on the earth, melting the coldness of winter.

As a coastal city, it doesn't snow in King's Landing.

But the cold and humid climate is still overwhelming.

Every winter, batch after batch of corpses that died of cold and starvation would be pulled out of the flea nest.

However, this winter has been much better.

The king accepted Prince Rhaegar's suggestion and gave the land of the king's territory to the homeless refugees for cultivation.

Prince Rhaegar himself also accepted a large number of women and children to the Riverlands, giving them work and a living.

The days when the king came to the people were much better.

In the morning, the temperature gradually increased.

"Hiss..."

A dragon's roar as muffled as a bell resounded through King's Landing. The dark dragon slowly circled, and the dragon's kiss revealed traces of green dragon flames.

The sun came out, and many people walked out of their homes and leaned against the wall to bask in the sun.

Hearing the roar of the dragon, he looked up unconsciously.

To the eye, one sees the terrifying appearance of a glutton, like an evil god.

"This black dragon is Prince Rhaegar..."

"Prince Rhaegar is back..."

The moment they saw the glutton, the image of the young crown prince appeared in the minds of the people, and they cheered up.

In recent years, the prince and his black dragon have rarely appeared in King's Landing. People say that they can only be seen in the Riverlands.

Every time the dark dragon hovers over King's Landing, it affects the emotions of the people.

No one dislikes a prince who values ​​the common people.

"Hiss..."

The Glutton circled the sky above King's Landing twice, announcing the return of the dragon and its driver.

Wait for Menghuo and Sylax to catch up and land towards the dragon's lair together.

Dragon Cave Gate.

Menas, who was wearing a bachelor's robe and a thin figure, was already waiting with an excited look on his face.

The glutton landed and Rhaegar slid off the dragon's back.

Menas limped forward quickly and said happily: "Prince, long time no see."

"Long time no see, Menas."

Facing the loyal Bachelor of the Dragon's Den, Rhaegar smiled: "I will stay for a while when I return to King's Landing this time."

"Very good."

Menas clapped his hands repeatedly.

"Hiss..."

Suddenly, a sharp dragon roar came from the dragon cave.

Rhaegar turned his head sideways. The light in the dragon's cave was dim, and a scarlet ray was faintly visible.

Frowning slightly, he asked, "Can you fly?"

Menas shook his head and said regretfully: "It's quite difficult. The improperly healed parts are torn and reconnected. I won't be able to return to the sky for a year and a half."

Rhaegar nodded upon hearing this and handed the glutton to the dragon man.

When others are not in King's Landing, Dragon's Cave is always under control.
