Ice and Fire: Reign of the Dragon.

Chapter 252 The Fate of the Burning Fire

Dragon's Nest, Raven Tower.

The bachelor on duty was still watching over the raven's nest and reading as usual. There was no sudden correspondence in Dragon's Nest City, so the bachelor on duty in the Raven Tower was always a very idle position.

This is the favorite place for all the scholars in Dragon's Nest City to stay, where they can slack off openly.

The bachelor read the novel in his hand with great gusto. This newly created novel told the legendary story of the Great Expedition. Although there were many parts that made people feel a little uncomfortable, even if this bachelor did not take the military science exam, he could still feel that it was unreliable, but the writing style was indeed good, and it was a very good book to kill time.

In particular, several dragon knights were given romantic plots.

The author should pray that he will not be visited by a few ladies riding dragons, the maester said in his mind.

Just as the scholar was about to turn to the next page, a shrill raven cry was heard.

"What's going on?" The bachelor suddenly had a bad premonition. He immediately hid the book in the raven's nest and rushed to the window. The black raven screamed and landed on the shelf specially provided for ravens to rest. The bachelor took down the letter skillfully and saw the sealing wax on it at a glance.

The bachelor's heart tightened. He didn't follow the normal process to copy and archive the letter, but climbed down directly with the letter.

"What happened?" The speaker was Evans, the old maester who was still the chief maester of Dragon's Nest. He also liked to slack off under the Raven Tower, but the Raven Tower was where Ringol usually worked, so there was a limit to how much the old maester could slack off.

"It's an urgent letter sent from Conqueror Land. That should be the name." The bachelor's voice was trembling a little. To be honest, it was the first time he encountered such an emergency.

Evans frowned and took the letter from the bachelor. "I see. You go back to guard. I will go find His Highness."

After saying that, Evans turned and walked down the stairs.

Not right, not right.

Evans knew that it was very wrong to receive a letter at this time. The whole kingdom was in a state of tension. Queen Mother Samantha was seriously ill and Queen Jenny was about to be pregnant.
"Your Highness, a letter from the conquered land."

Ringol raised his head and looked at Evans who suddenly broke in.

"Are there any letters from the conquered land that we need to receive?" Dan, who was sitting nearby, asked doubtfully. He and Jacaerys were now free of worries, and like Orion, they were concentrating on raising children and improving themselves, and assisting their brother at the same time.

Lingol had a bad feeling, so he took the letter opener beside him and opened the sealing wax.

The letter is short.

But Dan and Jacaerys had never seen their brother lose his composure like this before.

"What happened?" Jacaerys asked in confusion.

"Rhaegar was assassinated!"

With just a few words, the whole room instantly became quiet.

"Who?"

"Rhaegar was assassinated." Ringol stood up without hesitation: "Dan, ask Orion to go to Raventree Castle immediately to call Serena back. If possible, bring Brynden back as well. The family's dragon riders will soon be reunited."

Dan nodded. He knew better than to ask too many questions at this time.

"What about Horn Tide?" Jacaerys calmed down instantly: "Is Rhaegar dead or alive? Has the murderer been caught?"

"Dead, the assassin's dagger pierced his heart." Ringol trotted outside with an expressionless face: "Horntide is fine. When our people found that Rhaegar was killed, they immediately cut off the chains that bound Horntide. The angry Horntide directly set fire to He Sulei. Now the wild dragon is flying towards King's Landing."

"Who did it?"

"It could be anyone." Ringol took Jakaris to his father's room. "But it couldn't be the Faceless Man. This kind of work is not their style."

King's Landing, Red Keep.

Samantha was lying on the bed feeling a little dazed. Her beloved youngest son, Belle, was lying beside his mother's bed, softly reciting maxims from the Seven Star Bible to her.

Suddenly, Samantha, who had some wrinkles on her face and was no longer as beautiful as she was when she was young, opened her eyes: "Rhaegar! My Rhaegar!" "Mother." Baelor looked at his mother at a loss. "What's wrong?"

Samantha finally came to her senses. She looked at her son with some fear. Seeing that Belle was fine, she felt relieved and held her son's head with some difficulty. "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, Mom is fine."

Just now, she dreamed of her second son covered in blood, and her sister Jenny, who was also covered in blood.

Just when Samantha had calmed down a little, there was a sudden noise in the castle. There was even a faint sound of crying.

Samantha suddenly felt a tightness in her chest.

She had a bad feeling.

"Queen Mother!" A midwife, covered in blood, rushed over. "The Queen is in a very bad condition. She wants to see you."

Samantha suddenly felt dizzy. Fortunately, although Belle was young, he was very tall and was able to hold his mother steadily as she almost rolled off the bed.

"Take me to see Jenny."

Samantha cried anxiously.

delivery room.

Jenny had lost all her strength.

She felt a fire burning in her stomach. It was as if something was growing in the fire. The burning sensation extended from her bulging belly to her whole body, and her blood seemed to be burning.

The baby struggled restlessly in her belly, as if trying to burst out of her body.

The severe pain caused Jenny to lose consciousness several times, and now the blood has dyed the entire delivery bed red. And there is no sign of the baby being born.

Darren stood nervously beside his wife's bed. He was invincible on the battlefield, but here, he could not do anything.

"Darren, my son, how is Jenny doing?"

"Mother?" Darren looked in shock at his mother who stumbled in, and his brother whose eyes were full of heartache.

"Belle, how could you..."

"I came here on my own, my son." Samantha almost fell down the moment she saw Jenny's miserable condition. If it weren't for the support of the Baylor, the maester might have to continue to rescue the queen mother.

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, Your Majesty, the Queen is in danger." The Grand Secretary's gloves were covered in blood. He had tried everything, but in the end, there was nothing he could do. "The fetus in the Queen's belly is killing her mother. Your Majesty, we have no choice."

"Shut up!" Samantha shouted, not knowing where she got the strength from. "I order you to use all means to save her."

Looking at the helpless scholars.

Samantha suddenly felt a strong sense of suffocation. She felt as if her heart was being gripped by something and it became increasingly difficult to breathe.

At this moment, another bachelor rushed over in a panic.

His goal was simple, the king.

However, he came at the wrong time. Or rather, no one knew why he rushed in at this time.

Because when he shouted: "Lord Rhaegar was assassinated."

The one who fell was Samantha.

The fire in the courtyard of the Red Keep suddenly let out an unpleasant scream.

The sound spread throughout the Red Keep, and even the sound of the fire could be heard throughout King's Landing.
