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

Chapter 257 The Champion of the Martial Arts Tournament

After leaving the Duke's room, Rhaegar told the two knights to watch the door and leave the main tower directly.

"Where are Old Tully's two sons?"

Rhaegar asked as he walked out of the main tower hall.

Gray Worm said in a muffled voice: "In the godswood, the two Tullys send people to fight in duels every day."

"Lead the way, I'm going to take a look." Rega determined the target.

Gray Worm followed his lead, summoned several Unsullied to follow, and led the team towards the godswood.

The godswood of Riverrun is in a corner of the city.

It is a bright and fresh garden with redwoods, flowers, streams and bird's nests on the buildings.

Rhaegar and others crossed the river flowing around the main tower in the city, stepped onto the small bridge and entered the sacred wood.

At this time, the small sacred forest was filled with people.

Rega heard the movement behind him and secretly gritted his teeth: "Waste Seed!"

As soon as I arrived nearby, I heard the sound of gold and iron clashing.

Dang clang——

At least he has spent more than twenty years in the position of heir.

"Go away, I don't want to listen to nonsense."

Rega's voice became colder, and then he asked: "Since you have a communication channel, why don't you contact those officers who are loyal to your father and turn your back on the guests?"

Gray Worm's face darkened slightly, his spear lying in front of him.

"prince!"

Not only did they mismanage the Riverlands, but they also couldn't even settle matters within the family.

A black-haired boy stood on the edge. He saw Rhaegar's figure from a distance and screamed in surprise.

"Asshole!!"

"Stand back, little Tully!"

Gray Worm nodded, admitting that he helped Elmont out of trouble.

Deep in the godswood.

This kind of thing requires Rhaegar's intervention. Is the Tully family of Riverrun worthy of being the guardian family of the Riverlands?
Elmon was trembling with fright, trying to explain in a panic: "Prince, I..."

Old Tully's two sons each led a group of people to confront each other.

He is the crown prince of a kingdom, and you, Tully, the Duke, still don't respect him half way.

Not long after Gray Worm arrived at Riverrun, he sent someone to secretly contact him to get out of the room.

Rega raised his eyes and said calmly: "Elmon, you're out."

If the Tully family had two more generations of such heirs, the royal family could really consider changing to another guardian family.

It would be a shame to keep it.

If you encounter trouble and don't want to solve it, write him a letter first for help.

Rhaegar took a look at Elmon's dress. He still looked like an aristocratic young man, and there was no change.

This kid said he was under house arrest, but in fact he was not subject to too many restrictions.

Elmon lowered his head in shame and said, "They acted too suddenly, and I didn't react."

……

Lei Jiahan shouted loudly, pointed at his nose and lectured: "Since it hasn't reached that point, why don't you write a letter asking me to come to Riverrun to watch the show!?"

Old Tully's grandson said in a letter two days ago that he was under house arrest by his two uncles.

The second son, Milov Tully, was as skinny as a stick, surrounded by more than a dozen knights with different armor styles.

When asked by Rhaegar, Elmon was a little confused and said tremblingly: "My grandpa is just sick and has not reached that point yet."

Almon waved his hands, not daring to get close.

Although Old Tully's dead eldest son was mediocre and incompetent.

Old Tully's two sons didn't dare to stop him, and they didn't care about a young boy, so they released Elmon.

Rhaegar pushed him away and walked deeper into the godswood.

He frowned secretly and asked bluntly: "Your two uncles put you under house arrest, and you just let them do whatever they want?"

Rhaegar glanced back at Gray Worm.

Elmon was confused and wanted to step forward to apologize.

They were divided into two groups, one in the south and one in the north.

As his only son, as long as the news is released, there will definitely be some die-hard loyalists willing to serve.

Almon quickly ran up to him, showing an expression of surviving the disaster: "Thanks to the help of your guards, Prince, I was able to get out of the room."

The most eye-catching ones are the two monks wearing robes embroidered with seven-pointed star patterns.

Monks are the main members of the Church of the Seven Gods, responsible for spreading faith, teaching believers, etc...

The two missionaries at Harrenhal may also be called monks.

Opposite Milov was his red-haired, fat as a pig brother, Edmure Tully.

Rhaegar glanced at Edmure Tully and turned away in disgust.

The name Edmure Tully holds a lot of weight in the Tully family, slightly equal to Aegon Targaryen in the Targaryen family.

To give this dead fat pig such a name is really an insult to our ancestors.

Edmure also gathered a large number of people around him, most of whom were proletarian knights.

Only a middle-aged man with gray-blue eyes attracted Rega's attention.

The middle-aged man was wearing a silver-gray armor that looked very expensive at first glance, and had a palm-width heavy sword on his waist.

On the corner of his armor is branded a silver eagle with wings spread high.

That is the emblem of the Mallister family of Seaside City.

Seaside City is located in Eagle Point in the Riverlands and is one of the few cities that faces the sea.

The members of this family are noble and proud, and they were once the kings of the Trident River Basin.

Rhaegar looked at it for a few times and kept walking.

The sound of footsteps quickly attracted the attention of both parties, and they turned their heads to look over.

"Prince...Prince..." After seeing who the visitor was, they all saluted and greeted him.

Before moving to Harrenhal, Rhaegar had known Old Tully and was considered a regular visitor to Riverrun.

After the destruction of House Bracken, Rhaegar became the actual leader of the Riverlands, and no one in the entire Riverlands did not recognize him.

Facing this group of useless idiots, Rhaegar had no patience to talk anymore and waved his hand to tell them to step aside.

The two fallen knights who were still competing in the field immediately stepped aside and returned to their respective employers in despair.

How much does it cost to fight in a martial arts competition?

I dare not offend His Highness the Prince.

Rhaegar walked directly to the middle-aged man of the Mallister family and asked doubtfully: "Count Lemon, why are you here?"

The other party is not an ordinary member of the Mallister family, but the earl and patriarch of the family.

Rhaegar had met him several times.

Earl Lemon was also one of the few riverland nobles who did not pledge allegiance to him privately.

According to him, he respects the crown prince, but is only loyal to the king.

A man of great character and charisma.

Rhaegar's deepest impression of him was that he won the tournament championship in 105 AC.

That year was the tournament where Rhaegar was born and his mother died in childbirth.

The tournament called for the Seven Kingdoms and was an unprecedented event.

The person who benefited the most and performed most brilliantly was the former Lord Commander of the Kingsguard, Kriston Cole.

Cole's force value is very high and he is a dark horse who catches everyone by surprise.

First, he used a lance to smash Harwin Strong's collarbone, thus proving his title of "Bone Crusher".

He also defeated the brothers Ilic and Alec Kargel who were already serving as the Kingsguard.

In the finals, he defeated Rhaegar's good uncle Daemon again and used a meteor hammer to knock away the Dark Sisters in his hand.

However, its victory ended in second place.

In the final showdown, Cole's meteor hammer was cut off by Count Lemon's epee, and the chain ended in defeat.

As a girl, Rhaenyra complained to Rhaegar on more than one occasion. Lord Lemon's sword was so fast and fierce that Cole couldn't resist it.

Therefore, Rhaegar had a good impression of this person.

Count Lemon held a helmet with wings decorated on both sides under his arm. He bowed slightly and said in a thick voice, "Prince, I came here as invited."

As he said that, he glanced at Edmure Tully.

The meaning was very clear, he was invited by this stupid pig.

Rhaegar was puzzled and asked, "What conditions did he promise you?"

Earl Lemmon grimaced and gritted his teeth: "Old Tully is nothing. He shamelessly asked one of my daughters to marry his youngest son."

Old Tully's youngest son is Edmure Tully.

Hearing this, Rhaegar suddenly realized.

The sentiment was that the son-in-law asked his father-in-law to come forward, so no wonder Count Lemon was present.

To put it bluntly, old Tully was indeed thick-skinned and considerate of his family.

Even a loser like Edmure could marry a noble daughter from a big family.

As expected of the family motto: "Family, responsibility, honor."

The importance of family always comes first.

Rhaegar tilted his head and asked carefully: "Count Lemon, why do you fall in love with..."

He was embarrassed to say Edmure's name for fear of embarrassing the other person.

Earl Lemon's face turned even darker, as if he could drip water, and his back molars gritted loudly: "This stupid pig could have had a look a few years ago, and his martial arts skills were passable, but he was deceived by old Tully."

Recalling how old Tully was eager to get engaged and hold a wedding, it seemed as if he wouldn't survive the next day for fear that he wouldn't be able to see his youngest son get married.

Looking at it now, it was simply because he was afraid that he would see through Edmure and not marry his daughter to the Tully family.

"Cunning Glover!"

Count Lemon clenched his fists, eager to rush into the Duke's room in the main tower and see Old Tully off.

Seeing this, Rhaegar stayed away silently, feeling sympathy for the other person's frustration.

Old Tully is indeed not a human being.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Rhaegar looked at Old Tully's two sons again and said calmly: "I'm just a guest. You can continue the duel and don't worry about me."

Milov and Edmure looked at each other in disbelief.

They all knew that the prince had entered Riverrun.

After all, anyone who is not blind or deaf would know that such a big black dragon has circled over the castle.

But they were all afraid of the prince and did not dare to go and see him.

Huddled in the godswood as an ostrich.

Seeing that they didn't move, Rega glanced at them and shouted: "Fight, you want me to teach you!"

The two Tullys trembled and hurriedly distanced themselves to let each other's knights square off.

Who dares to mess with the prince?

When this guy gets angry, the black dragon's dragon flames are no joke.

Two and a half years ago, a young noble from the Riverlands disrespected the prince and turned him away.

That night, a fire broke out in the family's warehouse.

Together with dozens of horses in the stable and a warehouse of grain in the barn, they were all burned down.

The loss exceeded a thousand gold dragons, directly dragging the aristocratic family with small assets into the stage of debt.

No one knows who started the fire, and there is no way to find it.

But the nobles of all sizes in the Riverlands all understood the truth.

When the prince comes to visit you, you should politely open the city gate and welcome him into the castle to entertain him.

This is no longer the Targaryen dynasty of the last century. The local nobles just refused the requests of princes and princesses.

If you say a few words of ridicule, just say a few words of ridicule.
