Game of Thrones: I became a crown prince for a day

Chapter 11 The First Conflict with the King

"Thank you, Prince."

After receiving the little prince's guarantee, Alik sincerely thanked him and led the two of them into the camp.

The two children stayed away all night, and Viserys was angry and disappointed.

Not only was he disappointed in his children, but he was also disappointed in himself.

As a king, it is his incompetence for his ministers to start a war privately.

As a father, it is useless for him to discipline his children improperly.

After a night of enlightenment from Queen Allison, Viserys rarely revealed his true feelings and decided to do something.

When Rhaegar walked into the king's tent, he saw Viserys sitting on the throne.

Looking around, none of the dignitaries who celebrated yesterday were gone.

Even Nobushige's ministers were not among them.

"Father, I'm back."

Facing his unhappy father, Rhaegar took the initiative to say hello.

Viserys ignored him, and his cold eyes fell on Ilic who followed him.

"White Knight, tell your king, what is the crime of leading the prince out of the camp without permission?"

Ilic knelt down, feeling uneasy in his heart: "Your Majesty, it must be treason!"

"Very good. You still remember the laws of the Kingdom. I thought you had stopped taking it seriously."

Viserys laughed in anger: "Come here, pull this traitor down and chop off his head."

He is really angry.

Daemon and the Sea Serpent started a war without telling him.

The ministers did not recognize his designated successor.

The daughter who loves her wholeheartedly does not understand her old father's good intentions.

It was good now that even the white knight who swore loyalty dared to go against his wishes.

Sneaking his sick eldest son deep into the royal forest.

What does he want to do?
  What else is there not to do?
  If the punishment is not severe, the princes and ministers will follow suit one by one in the future, which will put the king's majesty at risk!

Following Viserys's order, footsteps were heard outside the camp.

Eric closed his eyes as if resigned to his fate.

He knew that the guard at the door was coming to judge him.

Alec, who had been guarding the king's head, changed his face slightly and secretly winked at Rhaegar.

Although it was a disgrace to the honor of his white robe, the little prince was indeed his brother's only life-saving straw at the moment.

Rhaegar did not break his promise.

As soon as Viserys gave the order, he immediately stood in front of Ilic.

Pretending to be confused, he said: "Father, why should Sir Eric be punished? There must be some misunderstanding."

Viserys didn't give him a good look and scolded: "Shut up, don't think that you can stay out of it because I didn't mention you."

"I already knew what happened from the groom who fed the horse. You have an unshirkable responsibility for Ilic's fate!"

Rega's expression froze, but he didn't expect that his little trick would be seen through.

The guard walked into the tent, neatly took off Ilic's white robe, and disarmed his sword.

"Stop, you can't do this to him."

Rega couldn't care less. He opened his hand to protect Ilic who was kneeling on one knee, blocking the guards from taking him into custody.

"You are so outrageous, do you also want to go against your father's will?"

Viserys shouted angrily and ordered the guards to take Rhaegar down.

"Let me go. There is no reason to detain me in front of my father."

Rhaegar struggled to break away. The guards did not dare to hurt the king's heir, so they could only hold down Ilic who had no resistance.

"Prince, please don't anger the king any more."

Seeing that the situation was getting more and more intense, Ilic, who was tied up, spoke up in a deep voice.

He was unwilling to detonate the king's wrath of the sleeping dragon for the sake of himself, the one being judged.

He was not naive enough to expect a young prince to save him.

On the way back, I thought about what would happen.

"I said, I will bear all the consequences, and Targaryen sticks to his word!"

Rhaegar knocked aside the guard blocking the way, stepped forward quickly, and faced his father with an angry look on his face. He said loudly: "Father, I am cured of my illness, and Sir Eric has contributed a lot to it."

Viserys sneered: "I only knew that Ilic was a knight, but I never knew that he could learn herbology."

"Believe me, there is a white deer in the royal forest. It gave me a fruit full of blessings and restored my health."

With emotions reaching a peak, Rhaegar dropped bombshell news in an attempt to reverse Ilic's decision.

Hearing about the white deer, Viserys had a flash of suspicion in his eyes: "A white deer cured your disease with a fruit?"

Just yesterday, Prime Minister Leonor reported to him that a white deer was found in the royal forest.

Jace Lannister also presented a golden spear, hoping to use the weapon he gave to hunt the white deer.

He indeed went into the royal forest to hunt under the protection of everyone.

But I didn’t see any white deer, I only hunted an ordinary antlered deer.

The eldest son had left the camp before then and would not have known about it.

So, what he said about meeting the White Deer is probably true.

Rhaegar didn't know that his father was thinking about everything for a moment, and he affirmed: "Yes, the white deer is all white. I gave it fruit, and it gave it a fruit that can cure me."

At the end, he reminded: "We are friends!"

"Hahaha, that's the best joke I've heard all year."

Viserys shook his head and laughed, not believing the eldest son's story which became increasingly outrageous.

Rhaegar looked determined: "Sir Ilic can vouch for me. You can also ask the accompanying bachelor to diagnose me. I guarantee that my body is recovering."

Viserys was moved by his confident words. He turned his gaze to the silent Ilic and said in surprise:

"Ilic, tell your king the truth before you take off your armor?"

Eric: "Prince, everything you say is true!"

Viserys nodded slightly, lowered his head and remained silent.

No one knows what he is thinking at this moment.

There was a brief silence in the camp, and everyone's breathing could be heard clearly.

After a while, Viserys looked at Alec and asked, "Do you think what Rhaegar and your brother said is true?"

"I trust my brother as you trust your children, Your Majesty!"

Alec did not hesitate and firmly vouched for his brother.

Viserys said no more and ordered: "Go and call the accompanying bachelors, including the doctors brought by other nobles and knights, none of them are left behind."

"As you wish!"

Alec's voice was loud, he opened the door curtain and walked out quickly.

This incident relieved the originally anxious atmosphere.

The guards looked at each other and consciously divided into two sides and stood at attention.

Rhaegar asked Viserys, "Father, do you believe me?"

"If it can make you healthy, I hope what I say is true."

Before the matter came to an end, Viserys was relatively restrained and looked at his young eldest son.

In fact, he already believed Rhaegar's words a little.

The Grand Maester had told Rhaegar two months ago after his usual check-up.

"The prince's heart failure is severe. If it continues to worsen, it will be difficult for him to live past the age of ten."

He asked if there was a cure.

Unfortunately, organ failure is a terminal disease in this day and age.

Let alone cure it, it cannot even alleviate it.

He originally thought that his eldest son would die soon, so he avoided meeting him.

As the father of this child, even if he is a king, he does not have the courage to face it calmly.

but.

Just now, the way Rhaegar argued with him surprised him.

Although the familiar little face is still pale.

But the sound it made was full of energy.

The momentum that bursts out from his whole body, the courage that his words carry.

He is indeed a descendant of ancient Valyria.
