Game of Thrones: The Bronze and Fire Lord.

Chapter 36 Aemon the Dragon Prince

"So what? Should we attribute Aemon's achievements to Daemon?"

Viserys spoke angrily.

Alison frowned even deeper and said seriously, "Aemon is Aemon, and Daemon is Daemon. They cannot be confused."

No one can take credit for the little guy's contribution.

Seeing his wife's serious expression, Viserys explained, "Because the two arrogant men who started the war are dissatisfied with my decision."

"If I send reinforcements to Daemon and the sea serpent Corliss now, what will everyone think of me as a king?"

Disobeyed his orders and openly opposed his rule.

You're about to lose and want him to clean up your mess?
Ha ha.

Alison put down the letter and kindly advised: "Perhaps people will say that the king is broad-minded and loves his brother."

"No way, people will just laugh at me for being weak."

Viserys smiled sardonically.

Allison asked, "So what do you believe in more?"

Viserys was stunned by the question, and had a severe headache. He said angrily: "I feel like I am an unlucky guy who can never please everyone!"

He was kind to everyone and always had a smile on his face.

But no one respected his decision, and they all had ulterior motives.

Allison watched quietly, and waited until her husband calmed down a little before she said, "Put another way, which one is more conducive to the stability of the kingdom."

"Should we allow the Crab Feeder to grow stronger, or should we eradicate him?"

She still remembered the kidnapped noble lady.

Escape is not the solution, the only option is struggle.

Viserys was silent for a moment.

He has his own considerations.

Daemon and the sea serpent Corlys were held back by the Stepstones, freeing the Iron Throne from threat.

He had this idea when the sea serpent Corliss first proposed to him to attack the Stepstone Islands.

House Velaryon made its fortune through maritime trade.

Pirates from the Three Women's Kingdom caused trouble, and Chaotou Island was the first to be affected.

Otherwise, why would the sea serpent Collis choose to start a war privately and conquer the Stone Steps Islands?

Behind Kolanar's arrival, there was a subtle instruction from her cousin Rhaenys.

From the information revealed in the letter, the one who was really in trouble was not the sea serpent Collis, but his younger brother Damon.

Chaotou Island is a large and powerful country, and even if it suffers heavy casualties, its foundation has not been shaken.

But Damon had no fiefdom and was like a rootless duckweed.

The troops under his command were all hired mercenaries.

Now that the mercenaries have retreated seeing that things are going badly, Damon is completely isolated and helpless, and has lost the qualifications to be on an equal footing with the sea serpent Corliss.

Weimond's letter for help was most likely instructed by the sea snake Collis.

The purpose is to isolate Damon and drag the royal family behind him into the water.

When the war is won, the royal family gains fame and the Velaryon family gains profit.

Damon got nothing.

"Stinky boy, the situation is not good."

Viserys frowned, making a decision in his mind.

He admitted that he did not have the breadth of mind and courage of his cousin Rhaenys, but that did not mean he was narrow-minded and would sit idly by and watch his younger brother suffer setbacks.

Damon needed his helping hand.

Alison stopped trying to persuade him and suddenly asked, "What reward are you going to give to Aemon?"

This is the key.

"What do you think?"

Viserys came back to his senses and wanted to listen to his wife's advice.

Allison said calmly, "You are the king, and any reward you give is of great importance, as long as others don't think you are stingy."

“Haha, you’re a lobbyist.”

Viserys pointed and laughed.

It was no secret in the palace that his wife had a good relationship with his nephew.

Some time before his grandfather Jaehaerys died, he specifically instructed him to take good care of the two of them.

He married Allison for this reason as well.

My grandfather’s vision must be better than his.

Allison smiled but didn't deny it.

Viserys thought about it carefully and said in a negotiating tone: "The boy wants a title, but he has no fiefdom and is young."

"Yes, there seems to be no such precedent in the royal family."

Alison took her time.

Viserys glanced at her, wondering if she had discussed this with Aemon. He gritted his teeth and said, "Then give him the title of prince. He can choose an unowned land as his fiefdom, or inherit Runestone City and give it a prefix."

Anyway, it’s better to get it right the first time than to reward it once.

The title of prince is indeed honorable, but it is not nothing.

For example, the "Prince of Dragonstone", the heir to the Iron Throne, is a princely title prefixed by the fiefdom. Aemon will inherit Runestone City, take root in the Vale, and then branch out.

A prince title, worthy of his status.

"Really?"

Allison was surprised. She didn't expect her husband, who was always hesitant, to be so happy.

"of course."

Viserys laughed and said sarcastically, "My son has been made a prince. When Daemon returns victorious, we can put a damper on his arrogance."

His younger brother Damon is called the "Prince of the Capital", but he does not have an actual prince title.

Tease him a little and let him give birth to such a smart and sensible son.

Allison smiled with satisfaction, and a huge stone fell from her heart.

……

The next day.

Early in the morning, the throne room was packed.

Ser Harold, Lord Commander of the Kingsguard, stood at the foot of the Iron Throne and declared:

"In the name of Viserys I of House Targaryen, King of the Andals, the Rhoynar, and the First Men, Lord of the Seven Kingdoms and Protector of the Realm."

"It is formally established that Aemon Targaryen is the Dragon Prince and Heir to Runestone City."

On the Iron Throne.

Viserys, wearing the crown and holding the family sword "Blackfyre", looked down at his young nephew.

Aemon was dressed in a gorgeous black suit, with a badge with three-headed red dragon carved on his chest. He turned around with a smile on his face.

In the hall, noble lords from all over the place stood on both sides.

They all came for the royal hunting and never expected to witness a prince's appointment ceremony.

"Clap clap clap!"

The announcement was made and thunderous applause broke out.

Aemon had a cute smile on his face and bowed to everyone to express his gratitude.

The badge on the chest shook, and the three-headed red dragon seemed to be about to spread its wings and fly out.

"The prince of the Dragon Clan, a prince without a fiefdom, the first since the founding of the country."

Aemon secretly complained, already very satisfied.

All beginnings are hard.

As long as you have a legitimate reason to do so, you have taken the first step.

Based on his merit of “saving people from a deer’s mouth”, he certainly doesn’t deserve the title of a prince.

Who can blame Alison for helping her behind the scenes?

In addition, Uncle Viserys felt guilty and gave full compensation in one go.

At this time, Mrs. Leia walked out of the crowd.

He was respectful and said that he would take his son back to Fushi City to familiarize himself with the environment of the territory.

Aemon was standing nearby, nodding in agreement.

There is give and take.

Since his uncle had named him a prince, he had to get out of King's Landing on his own initiative.

Don't leave any gaps in the hearts of both parties.

Sure enough, Viserys pretended to be reluctant, but still agreed to let his nephew return soon.

The ceremony thus ended.

……

Red Keep, Godswood.

"YoYo."

The white deer lay under the weirwood, its belly cushioned by bright red fallen leaves.

Aemon changed into a dragon riding suit, put his left foot in the stirrup, and climbed onto the deer's back with difficulty.

The white deer is two meters tall at the shoulder and is taller than an eight-year-old boy even when lying on the ground.

When Aemon climbed up, he amused himself: "Climbing a deer is so difficult, so climbing a dragon must be like climbing a mountain."

Not to mention the dream fire in the dragon's lair.

Considering Vhagar's mountainous bulk, it would take several minutes to climb even with a saddle rope.

If the enemy comes quickly, we won’t have time to control the dragon and fight back.

"Aemon, there you are."

As soon as I thought of that terrible old dragon, the dragon's rider came.

Aemon turned around.

Rhaenyra walked side by side with Lanar, carrying a cage covered with black cloth.

　Friends, are there any specific, official data on the size of dragons?

　　I didn't see accurate data on the Internet, I just analyzed it by watching the drama.

　　Please, is there any great God?
