Chapter 201 Blood and Fire Come from the Same Origin 8
Raleigh laughed and patted Jon Snow, saying: "Jon, it's your turn to tell the story."

Jon picked up the wine glass and took a long sip. He paused and said, "I was born by mistake. My story really doesn't have much to tell."

Raleigh said nonchalantly: "There are so many mistakes. Be happy, my friend."

Raleigh's words reminded Jon of the fat man who looked simple and honest but was actually quite smart. He could be said to be his first friend.

He thought of the tourney team battle in King's Landing, where he and Monton Waters fought side by side... He originally planned to make a few jokes at the end before exiting gracefully, but unfortunately he accidentally injured a leg, which was a bit regretful.

After withdrawing his thoughts, Jon smiled and said, "Yes, I still have friends."

Young Griffin quipped: "The most important thing is the red-haired girl."

Jon was about to speak, but was interrupted by Little Griffin pretending to be impatient: "I know, I know, Renelle."

Raleigh laughed: "Hey hey hey!"

Jon smiled and shook his head, his eyes becoming more blurred: "I plan to marry her when I go back, and I hope you can attend our wedding."

After Jon finished speaking, Little Griffin and Raleigh looked at each other as if inadvertently.

Raleigh rubbed his hands and said: "Jon, thank you for the invitation. Don't worry, I will do my best when it comes to the wedding room!"

Jon smiled and hammered Raleigh with his fist: "I was worried that you would scare my bride away."

Little Griffin stretched out a finger, scratched his head and cheek, and said, "I'm responsible for blocking the door."

Jon couldn't help laughing: "Little Griffin, you are still reliable."

Everyone's laughter stopped, and Luo Li suddenly said: "Aren't you going to invite one or two relatives?"

A flash of bitterness flashed across Jon's handsome face, and he murmured: "Family..."

Gudong, gudong, he took a big sip of wine and continued: "..., again, the same sentence, illegitimate children have no relatives."

Raleigh was about to speak, but Little Griffin stopped him with a look in his eyes.

Jon chatted for a while and fell asleep unconsciously.

…………

The pavilion outside the house.

Luo Li rubbed his face with his big hands and said, "Little Griffin, Jon's mouth is really strict. I even admire him."

Little Griffin rubbed his temples and said leisurely: "Varys has a bright eye. He is a good Stark."

Raleigh scratched his head and said, "I think it's difficult to get him to reveal his life experience. This kid is very stubborn."

Little Griffin chuckled: "That's why I can trust him."

Raleigh nodded in understanding and said, "What should we do next? I really can't think of any other way."

"almost……"

Under Raleigh's doubtful gaze, Little Griffin continued: "We have heard with our own ears Jon's life experience."

"what do you mean?"

Little Griffin looked into the distance and said slowly: "If he hadn't told it while drunk, how could we have known his amazing life experience? Raleigh."

After a moment of silence, Raleigh nodded: "Yes, who can remember exactly what he said when he was drunk!"

Raleigh scratched his head happily: "So it's so simple. I'm really not suitable for using my brain, little Griffin."

Little Griffin's face was still gentle: "Everyone has their own strengths. I also agree with Jon's point of view. You are indeed a rare warrior."

Raleigh first chuckled, then hesitated and asked in a low voice: "Little Griffin, I'm actually very curious..."

Little Griffin looked extremely handsome under the soft moonlight. He said with a smile on his face: "Curious? Are you curious why Jon was sent to the hands of brother and sister Viserys and Daenerys?"

Raleigh rarely showed a solemn look: "Jon's sword skills are outstanding, and his character is also very good. He can be a good helper for you in the future."

Little Griffin asked back: "Raleigh, it's rare for you to be curious about this kind of thing. You really want to know the answer?"

After Little Griffin finished speaking, he paused. Raleigh shook his head and said, "Forget it. I think even if you tell me, I won't understand."

Little Griffin smiled and said, "I can tell you, and I will have to tell you soon. It's the same."

Raleigh looked at Little Griffin in confusion.

"Because your friendship with Jon is part of the plan."

Little Griffin was very patient, and he continued slowly: "Both Viserys and Daenerys, neither brother nor sister are good at leading troops in battle, and Jon just has this talent."

"We will secretly help Viserys grow in strength and continue to attract everyone's attention. The right time..."

At this point, little Griffin paused and continued: "My father taught me that no matter how good a plan is, it is just a plan. No one can guarantee that it will go smoothly, because unexpected accidents may happen at any time. .”

Little Griffin took a breath of alcohol and continued: "The Jon Snow we chose is another guarantee against accidents. If Viserys deviates from our planned plan one day, Jon will help us conquer it. Viserys's troops."

Raleigh couldn't help but ask: "What if they don't leave their troops to Jon's control...?"

Little Griffin chuckled: "After all, he is of Targaryen blood, and with his ability to lead troops, do they have any other good candidates?"

Raleigh seemed to be talking to himself: "Jon surrendered as a Targaryen blood...helped them lead the troops in the battle..."

After a pause, Raleigh suddenly realized: "Then Rainelle is..."

Little Griffin's eyes moved slightly, and his voice was cold: "As long as Jon's loyalty remains unchanged, Jon and Renelle will love each other for a lifetime."

Unconsciously, cold sweat was dripping down Raleigh's back. His Adam's apple rolled a few times, and he said with a bitter look on his face: "Your Highness, do I know too much?"

Little Griffin smiled gently, reached out and patted Raleigh's arm, and said: "Raleigh, I tell you this because I believe in your loyalty, and... I want you to stay in Jon He also needs help around him."

Raleigh unabashedly wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead and said, "I understand my mission, please don't worry!"

Little Griffin smiled and nodded slightly.

After a pause, Luo Li added: "It is rumored that the Beggar King is quite capable..."

Little Griffin leaned against the pillar of the pavilion, looking at the twinkling starry sky with a pair of purple eyes, and said: "This is a good thing. The more Viserys likes to do whatever he wants, the easier it will be for you and Jon to control the troops."

Raleigh smiled heartily. He had returned to his normal appearance, rubbed his hands and said, "Then I will go to meet the future queen tomorrow?"

Little Griffin corrected: "She is one of the candidates for the queen."

…………

…………

The next day, morning.

Bang, bang, bang, the sleeping Jon was awakened by the sudden slamming of the door, and one of his hands immediately grasped the handle of the sword.Jon stood up, quickly looked around the room, and slowly approached the door while keeping an eye on the movement outside.

Bang, bang, bang, banging on the door sounded again.

Jon loosened his fingers, gripped the sword handle again, and said in a deep voice, "Who is it?!"

On the other side of the door, a young voice responded: "In the name of Princess Daenerys, open the door!"

Jon's pupils shrank, Princess Daenerys?Why did she come to me? !

Jon turned his head and scanned the room again. Where were Little Griffin and Raleigh?

Jon thought for a moment, put away his sword, and opened the door. He saw a tall, thin young man with a slightly pale face leading a few soldiers standing outside the door.

The young man looked Jon up and down and said, "My name is Angay, are you Jon Snow?"

Jon stared at Ange and nodded slightly.

Ange turned sideways and said: "Your Excellency Jon, in the name of Princess Daenerys, please go to the Governor's Mansion."

He added: "Your friend, Raleigh is waiting there."

…………

The city-state of Viserys, the governor's palace.

Following Ange into the hall, Jon raised his eyes and looked up high. Daenerys Targaryen, known as the Princess of Dragonstone, was sitting upright, with her back straight and her hands placed naturally on her knees. Look elegant and noble.

Under the morning light, her silver hair exuded a faint luster, and her pair of violet eyes were like crystal amethysts, shining with charming brilliance.

She is so beautiful... The boy from the north forgot to salute.

Daenerys's gaze rested on Jon... He looked quite handsome... Although his body looked lean, he felt very powerful... His skin color was slightly dark... His hair was brown... His gray eyes were almost too deep. Jet black.

At least the characteristics of the Targaryen bloodline were not found on the outside... The silver-haired princess's eyes moved slightly, and she glanced at the intruder named Raleigh. She frowned slightly. These people wanted to awaken her true dragon's wrath. ?

…………

The maid standing next to Daenerys chanted: "Before you is: Princess of Dragonstone, Breaker of Shackles, Savior and Protector of the City of Viserys, Daenerys Targaryen Stormborn ."

The maid's introduction brought Jon back to his senses. After a pause, he touched Daenerys' chest and saluted: "Good day, Princess of Dragonstone. I am...Jon Snow."

There was a sense of authority in Daenerys' voice: "Stranger, tell me the names of your parents."

Jon looked up suddenly and opened his mouth, why is she asking me this?Does she already know his life experience?

After a moment of silence, Raleigh's rough voice sounded: "Jon, I told her."

What was told?Jon turned his head and found Raleigh kneeling on the ground with his hands tied behind his back.

Jon was surprised: "Raleigh, what happened?"

Raleigh trembled his lower lip and said, "Maybe I haven't sobered up yet this morning. I climbed a wall and accidentally bumped into Her Royal Highness."

Osana, who was guarding Raleigh, scolded: "You broke into the Governor's Palace without permission and dared to offend Her Royal Highness the Princess. You will be sent to the guillotine!"

Jon digested what he heard after arriving here and said, "Where is little Griffin?"

Raleigh replied: "We went riding together and then got separated... I don't know how I ended up here."

Raleigh still smelled strongly of alcohol.

Jon first rubbed his swollen head, then looked at Daenerys who was watching them, and said respectfully: "I'm sorry, Your Highness, my friend is probably not sober. I promise he didn't mean it, please." You forgive.”

Daenerys' clear voice sounded: "Stranger, this intruder told me that you are my people, a Targaryen people."

Her voice became cold, and she continued: "I can ignore the recklessness of an alcoholic, but do you know the consequences of such lies?"

The content of Daenerys' words shocked Jon, and he looked at Raleigh in disbelief.

Raleigh's cheeks turned red, and he raised his chin and pointed in Osana's direction: "Jon, I'm sorry, they wanted to kill me, and I got anxious..."

Before he finished speaking, Luo Li lowered his head in shame.

Jon asked with a serious face: "How do you know my life experience?"

"what?"

Raleigh looked up and said doubtfully: "You told me this when we were drinking yesterday. Have you forgotten it?"

Jon had a headache. He vaguely remembered that the three of them had told their own stories together, but the memory was very vague.

How did I get this out of my mouth? !Jon was blaming himself, he didn't doubt Raleigh... His friend had an upright character, and he believed that he would not deceive him, and more importantly... unless he revealed it himself, it was impossible for others to know this secret.

Jon, who was at a loss, saw Daenerys slowly raising her hand, and his pupils shrank. He knew what this action meant... When her hand was lowered, his friend would be squeezed out. Execution.

Jon had to speak quickly to stop him: "Your Highness, I am willing to be honest with you."

Daenerys retracted her raised hand and tapped her chin.

Jon took a deep breath, calmed down, and said slowly: "My biological father is Rhaegar Targaryen, and my biological mother is Lyanna Stark."

Daenerys stood up from her chair, stared at Jon for a while, and said, "Wrong spring?"

Jon looked embarrassed and said bitterly: "I was born by mistake."

Daenerys shook her head: "That's not something you can decide."

Daenerys's voice was still cold, but her words made the corners of Jon's eyes suddenly feel hot.Daenerys' simple words warmed Jon's heart. This was a warmth he had never experienced before. It was as if a warm current spread from the depths of his frozen heart, passing through his blood. to every corner of the body.

Daenerys said again: "How do you prove that you are telling the truth?"

Facing Daenerys' slightly expectant gaze, Jon was very sure of his heart at this moment... He didn't want to see disappointment in these beautiful eyes.

He answered seriously: "The Duke of Winterfell, Ed Stark can confirm it for me."

Then, Jon told the details about his birth that he had heard from Lord Eddard.

Daenerys was indeed suspicious at first, but now she no longer doubts Jon's life experience, and she doesn't even need the usurper to confirm it in person... Daenerys is thinking that this may be some kind of Targaryen bloodline. resonance.

Daenerys quickly walked down the steps and came to Jon. She looked at him tenderly.

Daenerys's eyes were sparkling. She reached out and gently stroked Jon's cheek and said, "Jon, I am your aunt."

The corners of Jon's eyes turned red, and he closed his eyes sadly, holding back tears.

He spoke with difficulty: "I'm sorry, I... I'm just an illegitimate child."
