Game of Thrones: The Bronze and Fire Lord

Rhaenyra ran out angrily after experiencing an unexpected disaster.

She was extremely upset.

Before she could understand her father's meaning, she was scolded.

If there hadn't been so many people present, she would have cried.

"It must be someone who made him unhappy again!"

Rhaenyra gritted her teeth and walked faster and faster.

She walked out of High Tide City and found a secluded spot.

She also wanted to relax alone.

By chance, she came upon the empty space where Aemon and Laena were.

From a distance, she saw two silver-haired figures standing close together.

Rhaenyra paused, stunned.

The two were getting along well at that time.

Laena sat sideways on the lawn, her long, light blue skirt spread out like a mermaid's tail coming ashore.

Aemon sat on the hem of her skirt. At first glance, it seemed as if he were in her arms.

With a smile on his face, he kept reaching into his backpack and taking out all kinds of delicious food as if by magic.

First, he took out a banana; then, a bunch of grapes. He stuffed it all into the other person's hand.

"Eat! I still have a lot!"

Aemon raised his chin, being quite generous.

"Thank you."

Laena held a pile of fruit desserts, which made her laugh and cry.

She said that she hadn't eaten lunch yet and that she would wait until evening to eat.

The other person took out a pile of food.

"Don't worry. There's more if it's not enough," Aemon said.

Aemon said as he continued to take things out of his backpack.

"People are like iron, and rice is like steel. They'll be hungry if they don't eat." Your Royal Highness is kindhearted. How can you sit and watch others starve?

If you eat my food, we're good friends.

Given our relationship, it's not okay to ride Vhagar and mess around.

"Squeak~"

The golden-nosed rat curled up at the bottom of the backpack. He covered his mouth with his little paws and almost shed tears.

"It's gone!

All the apple cores are really gone!

After a long time of not taking out new things, Aemon gave up in disappointment.

"Rat is not good!

Do you usually eat secretly? Have you tried stocking up?

"What are you doing?"

Rhaenyra came over for some reason, her eyes wandering around the room.

"Rhaenyra."

Laena looked back and smiled. "We met by chance. Did you leave early?"

During their conversation, she casually rested her bare hand on Aemon's shoulder.

Aemon's body stiffened as he ate an apple.

Suddenly, he had a bad feeling.

Sure enough.

Rhaenyra also noticed the hand and felt an alarm go off in her heart. Suddenly, an idea came to her.

Could this be why her father yelled at her to find Aemon?

The more she thought about it, the more sense it made. She looked at Laena strangely and asked suspiciously, "The party isn't over yet. Do you want to go back together?"

"No!"

Laena shook her head and refused. She gave a reason: "You know, there are people there who I don't want to see."

Hearing this, Rhaenyra fell into a trance for a moment.

Suddenly, she remembered that Laena had a fiancé.

Thinking of this, she instantly felt much better.

"Well, let's see the scenery together."

Rhaenyra smiled and went back in no hurry.

Her father was just looking for an opportunity to get angry, and she wasn't that stupid.

Laena smiled slightly and said, "Okay, the party will last until late anyway."

Rhaenyra found a place to sit down, changing her previous hostility.

Aemon: ...

This scene is really hard to comment on.

"I'll help you peel it."

Laena was considerate. She peeled a grape and put it in Aemon's mouth.

Aemon opened his mouth and ate it, staring at her with complicated eyes.

He silently accused her: "I'm stupid, and you still bully me."

"Hmm."

Laena smiled more deeply and turned around to feed Rhaenyra a peeled grape.

She was just like a big sister who cares about her younger brothers and sisters.

Rhaenyra was very moved. "Thank you, Laena."

It had been a long time since anyone had peeled grapes for her.

"You're welcome. Just do as I do."

Laena's words were full of meaning, and she winked at Aemon secretly.

As if to say, "Look, she has to thank me."

"Alas!"

Aemon sighed, feeling disappointed.

It's no wonder that, in the feudal dynasties of his previous life, daughters of wealthy families who lost their mothers at a young age were despised when it came to marriage.

Queen Emma died of dystocia in 105 AC.

Rhaenyra had lacked her mother's guidance since childhood, and her emotions were weak.

If this were a palace drama, it would last only two and a half episodes at most.

...

The next day:

Early in the morning, the Nine Flights Hall was cleaned up after the banquet.

Corliss held a separate banquet to entertain the royal family.

After the meal, he showed them the harvest arranged in the hall.

For example, there was the broken mask of the crab feeder.

"The sea changes rapidly, and even the best sailors dare not say that they are infallible."

Corliss pointed to each collection with pride.

Aemon followed behind him, blinking innocently.

He was not emotionally affected.

Honestly, Sea Snake Corliss is a very good politician, military strategist, and adventurer.

Formerly, Tidehead Island was very barren, roughly equivalent to Dragonstone.

There was a dark and humid Tidehead Castle and several small fishing villages with scarce land.

When Sea Snake was young, he witnessed his family's struggles and devoted himself to the cause of great navigation.

He made a total of nine voyages, the farthest of which were to the Arctic Glacier, Asshai in the Shadow Lands, and the Summer Islands in the Summer Sea.

These voyages also earned him great wealth.

Based on Tidehead Castle, the majestic Tidehead City was rebuilt.

Several small fishing villages expanded into the town of Hull, and a second spice town was established.

The current achievements of the Velaryon family are supported by the Sea Snake.

However!

Aemon glanced at Aunt Rhaenys beside the wine cabinet with respect, but not worship.

Without the dragons of the Targaryen family, the Velaryon family would not be so arrogant.

Daemon, leaning against the window, held the same attitude.

Hearing the Sea Serpent brag, he looked at him with contempt and took a sip of wine to hide his sneer.

Without the dragon, he could flatten Tidehead Island alone.

"Hey, is that a chessboard?"

Aemon wandered around, bored, and saw a beautiful chessboard.

Corliss glanced at it and said lightly, "Try the next game?"

If nothing unexpected happens, the royal family will leave today.

Since his marriage goal has not been achieved, it would be unwise to make enemies with the royal family again. It is better to ease the relationship gradually.

Slowly and gradually is the best strategy.

Aemon hesitated and said, "I don't know how to play."

Seeing that the chessboard and pieces resemble the products of the free trade city-state, he realized that he only understood the rules.

"No problem. You'll learn them in the next game."

Corliss's eyes were deep as he took the initiative to pick up the chessboard and arrange the pieces.

He was very interested in the young man in front of him.

Chess reflects the quality of people, so it's a good way to test his background.

"Okay then."

Aemon shrugged, no longer refusing.

The two found a golden nanmu stake from the Summer Isles and played a game of chess.

No one cared at first, but the noise soon attracted others.

"Kill!"

"If you come over here, I'll just eat your chess piece."

"I know, kill again!"

"You lost another piece."

"Keep killing!"

After playing seven or eight games in a row, Aemon continued to lose, yet his energy remained unabated.

In the last game, only two pieces remained on the chessboard.

Aemon moved a piece forward and said decisively, "Kill!"

"You lost again."

Corliss frowned and ate the chess piece.

According to the rules of chess, if only one piece remains, it's considered a loss.

Aemon had expected this outcome and remained calm. "Master Corliss is a superb chess player, so if you lose, you lose."

"Anyway, I can't win. I'll just play casually." There must be a benefit to winning and being happy.

He was relieved, but Corliss on the other side had an ugly expression and stared at the chessboard without saying a word.

In eight games, this kid "killed" himself more than a dozen times.

Although he is a bad chess player, his sharp aura is unstoppable.

In Aemon's puzzled eyes.

Corliss slowly raised his head and stared at the young man's face. He felt heavy in his heart. "Another Daemon?"
