Game of Thrones: The Bronze and Fire Lord.

Chapter 120 Martial Arts Competition
The king's laws were issued and everyone else had no choice but to obey them.

When the news reached River Valley Town, the young prince smiled.

Very Viserys-style playfulness.

It's just the right amount, impeccable.

"My uncle was born to be a king, but he was born into the Targaryen family."

His Royal Highness made this comment and chose to obey the law.

Living deep in the river valley town, he is dedicated to development.

……

half year later.

114AC.

It was early June, a hot and humid summer.

The valley was deathly silent; the demise of House Waynwood did not cause a single ripple.

No one dares to be the first to take action.

The river valley is unique, with a quiet and peaceful atmosphere.

Lonely Mountain, Dragon's Nest.

In the dark cave, a silver-haired figure walked and stopped.

“It’s very tasty.”

Aemon was ready, carrying his green backpack.

Walk around the piles of dried dragon dung and go deep into the dragon's nest.

After a long time, two piles of fresh dragon droppings were found hidden in the corner.

From the outside, it looked like black viscous liquid had gathered and solidified into a lump.

Without saying a word, Aemon swung his small hoe and smashed the shiny black shell.

A pungent white smoke burst out, and sticky liquid overflowed from the broken shell.

One green, one rose red, and one grayish white.

Three dragon eggs lay in an incubator, their scaly-covered shells sticky with black liquid.

"Great."

Aemon opened his bag and pulled out the shivering golden-nosed rat.

The little mouse covered its eyes with its paws and had three dragon eggs stuffed into its mouth.

"Discover magical items and gain +3, +3, +3 magic essence..."

Aemon did the same thing, cracking open another incubator that looked like dragon dung.

The sticky liquid splashed out and the stench went straight to the top of his head.

It's real dragon poop.

"啕~"

Aemon's face fell and he returned the same way with his harvest.

Silver Wing has been very restless recently, and the dragon breeders stationed in River Valley Town have predicted that dragon eggs will be laid.

As expected, this trip was fruitful.

Ring!

When passing by the bronze sacred tree, a pleasant crisp sound was heard.

"what?"

Aemon glanced casually and walked forward quickly.

The origin of the bronze sacred tree is almost unknown.

But one thing can be seen.

The bronze sacred tree is indeed a plant, or a form of life.

After planting for more than a year, the three-foot height increased by one inch.

Now it has reached a pleasing three feet and one inch.

"Squeak!"

The golden-nosed rat crawled out of the bag, its little eyes sparkling.

Aemon was surprised.

This little creature is as timid as a mouse and is usually most afraid of coming into contact with dragons.

How dare you show up in the dragon's nest?

Ring!

The bronze sacred tree remained motionless, and the bronze birds and the sun disk on its two branches remained unchanged.

The bronze bell on the first branch swayed from time to time, making a crisp sound.

Aemon hesitated for a moment, feeling the bronze bells urging him to reach out.

And he did.

The right hand is open and placed just below the bronze bell.

The first branch suddenly trembled, and the only three bronze leaves emitted a hazy halo, like a baby clapping.

The bronze bell fell squarely on the palm of my hand.

The panel prompt sound sounds:
"Discover special materials containing magic, gain +10 magic essence."

Aemon's eyes widened.

There is a limit to the amount of magic power an item can hold.

The Mithril Beans are precious enough to obtain 5 points of essence.

A small bronze bell in the palm of the hand was actually worth more than two mithril beans.

then……

The bronze bell stopped shaking, as if it had been drained of its essence.

"Since it is a material, it is suitable for forging tools."

Aemon was satisfied.

……

Lonely Mountain, at the foot of the mountain.

Aemon climbed down the steep mountain wall, where two dragon handlers, one old and one young, had been waiting for a long time.

"Three dragon eggs, keep them well."

He took off the bag from his waist and placed the dragon eggs in the incubator that had been prepared in advance.

The old dragon tamer seemed relieved and moved surprisingly quickly.

Aemon smiled indifferently.

This nest of dragon eggs are recorded as public eggs and belong to the royal family.

He can keep it for a period of time, but he will eventually have to send it to King's Landing.

The same result would occur if the three dragons on Chaotou Island laid eggs.

Dragon keepers are assigned to various places to control the dragon eggs.

"Prince, all your vassals are here."

The old dragon keeper had a deep voice.

Aemon nodded and asked, "Is there any news from King's Landing recently?"

He was the one who called the vassal.

After half a year of rapid development, the river valley is now completely different from what it used to be.

The old dragon keeper replied, "I heard that Her Royal Highness the Princess has finished her tour and is on her way back."

Not new news.

Aemon strode down the hill.

River Valley City.

A magnificent building in white tones, emitting a sacred glow in the sunlight.

After half a year of infrastructure construction, remarkable results have been achieved.

River Valley City was officially completed.

The three great halls stand majestically like three impassable mountains.

The design of black tiles and blue bricks renders bright colors on the white background, just like the most beautiful painting.

Aemon entered the Dale and looked down at the embryonic form of the city below.

A river road from Raven Ridge to the Vale of Arryn has been paved, and the main road connects the various city gates of Riverdale Town.

Unlike mountain roads, which have limited conditions.

The main road inside the valley is 20 meters wide, with auxiliary roads on both sides 10 meters wide, for a total width of 30 meters.

There are small trees planted on both sides to serve as guidance and windbreak.

Along the way were wheat fields cultivated by farmers, with green malt sprouting from the black soil. At this time, several valley knights ran on the road and arrived at the towering walls of River Valley Town.

After obtaining permission, they entered through the bronze door one after another.

Aemon's pride was palpable.

The first city wall was completed, ten meters high and eight and a half meters wide at the base, like an inverted blue and white porcelain bowl.

The second wall was half built, five meters high and ten meters wide at the base.

The mountain clans in the labor camp built the structure day after day, and there was less than a year left to complete the project.

The town has bluestone-paved streets and many shops in the inner city area, giving it the appearance of a city.

If it rains, the rainwater will flow into the Long Lake through the drainage ditch.

Aemon looked to the left.

A simple pier was built on Changhu Lake, where many small fishing boats are moored.

Next to the dock is the city garrison.

Supervise the docks and prevent intrusions.

A medium-sized cargo ship with a sail cloth that said "white bottom covered with red crabs" docked and members of the Setiga family got off.

……

Summer Hall.

Yimon sat in the main seat and listened patiently to the distribution quotas of lime and honeycomb coal.

Johanna was eloquent and all her allies and vassals agreed with her.

For example, the Redford family of Red Fort and the Setiga family of Crab Island are all allies of River Valley Town.

The allocation is higher, and you can make a lot of money by selling it.

The Korwat family of Coldwater City, the Tollet family of Gray Valley City, the Shet family of Seagull Tower...

As a vassal, the allocation is smaller.

After having enough for their own use, they can also sell it to wealthy knights or small nobles under their command and earn considerable income.

"Prince, you are as generous as ever."

Bartimos smiled flatteringly.

Lime and honeycomb coal have low costs and high selling prices, and have become hot commodities in aristocratic circles.

Whether it is sold to the great nobles in the River Bay or to the free trade city-states on the other side of the strait, it is always sold out.

"You are also very generous."

Aemon waved his hand.

After the Battle of Pentos, all parties owed him the spoils of war.

Seagull Town paid the money, a full 300,000 gold royals.

The Setiga family sent people to help build the Long Lake Wharf and arrange sailors and shipbuilders.

He was also given a broken horn.

The Velaryon family was wealthy and powerful, so they directly sent a three-masted sailing ship named "The Chaste Maiden" and deposited it in Seagull Town for trade.

Aemon cannot sail, so the sea serpent is in charge.

If anything goes wrong, I will cover the loss, and if there is any profit, we will split it 70% and 30%

However, every time he heard the name of this ship, he always felt like the sea snake was hinting at him.

Prince Pentos is the most generous.

Across the strait came three large ships of gifts.

One ship was filled with spices, and two ships contained a total of 3,000 craftsmen and young men and women of all kinds.

The spices were expensive and were given by Aemon to his allies and vassals.

Act as part of the reward.

The population became the subjects of River Valley Town in the name of aiding infrastructure.

in short.

Yimon became rich overnight through war.

"Kill people and set fires, and you'll get a gold belt. Build bridges and roads, and you'll get no corpses."

Aemon rested his chin on his hand and thought of some wise words.

After a reasonable distribution, all parties withdrew from the Summer Hall.

Yimon had some free time and walked around.

In the white marble-paved vestibule, Adrian and William competed in swordsmanship, fighting back and forth.

The river valley town grew.

Many second sons of nobles and wandering knights gathered there, hoping to seek an official position.

Adrian is the second son of the Redford family.

There is also a girl below who is eyeing His Royal Highness the Prince.

The first to take the oath of allegiance was appointed commander of the city garrison, with five hundred sheriffs under his command.

It can be regarded as an exchange of interests with the Redford family.

"Prince, there is urgent news of the king's arrival."

Scholar Mu Kun came hurriedly.

"Uncle wants to release me from my confinement?"

Aemon stretched and took the letter to look at it.

I didn't know at first glance, and I was shocked when I saw it.

Rhaenyra's Swift Journey ends, and she returns to King's Landing with her followers from Storm's End.

at the same time.

According to the Grand Maester, Allison was pregnant again and the prediction was that it would be a little prince.

The double happiness made my uncle very happy.

With just a word, he decided to hold a martial arts competition.

It was specifically pointed out that the nephew must be present.

"Congratulations, the royal family has added a new bloodline."

Maester Mukun smiled.

Aemon smacked his lips and said, "Alison is really fertile. She has more children than Silverwing lays eggs."

He knew clearly that this baby would be born safely.

He is an excellent boy with both good looks and personality.

As expected.

Rainier's qualification for inheritance was once again shaken and pushed to the forefront.

Recalling the court struggles over the years.

This competition may very well be the opportunity for the Black Party and the Green Party to truly take shape.

The time has come for the nobles of the seven major nations to be forced to take sides.

"Which side do I stand on?"

Aemon thought hard.

Neither the Black Party nor the Green Party is suitable.

He and Laena became husband and wife, and had one foot on the ship of House Velaryon.

And there's dad Daemon, he'll definitely return to King's Landing to stir up trouble.

Under these conditions, complete independence is obviously not feasible.

The only solution now is to establish a character.

Aemon had an idea in his mind and smiled, "Yes, establish a character of a loyal minister of the royal family and be a lone minister of the Iron Throne."

Considering my uncle's ability to play dumb, I think he would agree with this.

After he has calmed down Rainier, he will then properly discipline Alison's children.

The conflict between the black and green parties is not unsolvable.

The only problem is that it is difficult to explain to the Velaryon family.

Lannar was the candidate for his wife.

Rainier couldn't be spared either.

The reality is that having two sides is not only immoral, it is also illegal in Westeros.

Until he has the absolute strength to imitate Aegon the Conqueror and marry two wives, he cannot get engaged for the time being.

Fortunately, he is young and can delay it for three years.

"This martial arts competition has caused some trouble."

Aemon shook his head in disgust.
