75: Madam Leia Forces Marriage« Prev≡ Table of ContentsGoogleNext »The next day.
Rune Stone City, above.
A giant bronze dragon slowly circled and landed outside the city wall.
"Thanks a lot, big guy."
With a smile on his face, Aemon jumped off the dragon's back with a cautious heart.
"roar!"
Wormisor growled lowly and turned around to lie down.
Yesterday, just after I had eaten, I went to the driver to ask for a debt.
Aemon connected with it and stopped laughing.
He is really a stone in the pit, with a bad temper and a hard temper.
"How can great-grandfather stand you?"
It's puzzling.
"roar!"
Wormisor raised his eyes unkindly, stretched out his head and arched the driver to express his dissatisfaction.
Aemon was hit by the dragon, staggered and almost fell down.
Not only does he have a bad temper, he also has a lot of energy.
"Forget it, I don't have the same experience as you."
Aemon helplessly held his forehead and muttered in a low voice: "Wake your partner up from Longshan one day and cure your bad temper."
A pair of companion dragons were suddenly separated.
Maybe she was blaming him.
…
Spacious lobby.
Eamonn sat on a chair, holding a glass of warm milk and tasting it.
My mother, Mrs. Leia, is still hunting and has just sent out a message.
"Prince, I have the golden wine from Qingting Island here."
Johanna stood aside with a silver wine flask on the tray in her hand.
"Oh, gin wine?"
Aemon asked curiously.
Johanna pursed her lips and smiled, pouring wine for him: "The fine wine sent by the king is not easy to buy outside."
The clear wine was poured out, and the liquid dripped on the wall of the cup.
Golden in color and fragrant.
Aemon sniffed it and gave a favorable comment: "Yes, good wine."
"Taste it?"
"No, underage drinking is not allowed."
"..."
Looking at the stunned Johanna, Eamonn was satisfied and continued to taste the fresh milk with honey.
He is a rough man who cannot taste whether the wine is good or not.
Drinking is common in Westeros because the water from wells is unsanitary and not as convenient as drinking.
Comparing the two, he prefers nutritious milk.
Added honey water.
Johanna calmed down for a long time, lowered her head and pursed her lips to hold back laughter.
His Royal Highness is truly unique and does not follow the ordinary path.
Aemon drank it all in one gulp, put down the ceramic cup boldly, and said, "Johanna, the king wants to open up a new territory, how about you become my housekeeper?"
"Well, me?"
Johanna pointed at herself, her eyes full of confusion.
"Yes, that's you."
"But I can only make the bed and clean it. At most, I can help Mrs. Leia settle accounts."
Johanna pursed her lips, seeming embarrassed.
But under Aemon's sharp gaze, he saw a clue.
Johanna's breathing was steady and she was not nervous.
He even vaguely felt that the other person's beautiful eyes covered by long black curly hair were quietly observing his expression.
"Another smart badass."
Eamonn's heart trembled, but he said the same thing: "You can definitely do it. Do you want to be a little maid all your life?"
He knew how powerful the "Black Swan" Johanna was in the original world.
Even if she is sold to a brothel in Reese, she can step up from a prostitute to the top.
For a long time, she was the behind-the-scenes ruler of Reese.
"Isn't this much better than the white maggot Xiaomei raised by daddy Damon?"
Aemon is determined to win and plans to activate this SSR.
Hearing this, Johanna buried her head even lower, almost pressing on a pair of white squabs.
I don't know if it's an illusion.
After Aemon's 12th birthday, every time he saw Johanna dressed in a maid outfit, she felt that her neckline was lower than usual.
There is no need to doubt, it's a perfect badass woman sight.
"I..."
Johanna pondered for a moment and finally planned to speak.
There was a burst of footsteps, quickly entering the hall.
"Aemon, I heard that you met the Alpine clan?"
Lady Leia was wearing the bronze leather armor she wore for hunting, and she walked with wind in her step.
He walked quickly to his son and looked at his body up and down.
"I'm fine. Wormisor is not a vegetarian."
Eamonn stood up to greet him and made room for his mother.
Mrs. Leia was dubious, but she felt more at ease.
She knows her son better than her mother. She knows exactly how capable her son is.
She rode back all the way.
If it weren't for the concern for face, I would have wanted to check it just now.
Johanna acted as a transparent person and brought the wine poured for His Royal Highness to Lady Leia.
Aemon glanced at her and smiled evilly.
Johanna silently stepped back and raised her collar two inches.
"Tell me, why are you so anxious to find me?"
Mrs. Leia didn't notice the little movements of the two people, and took a sip of wine to regain her composure.
She seriously suspected that her son came back to collect debts.
Yes, she was absolutely right.
Eamonn sat next to him and smiled: "The river valley is very suitable for land reclamation, but I need craftsmen and logistical support."
He surveyed it last night.
The foot of the mountain is the best location for building a city.
Two red cards can provide construction requirements and completion speed, but still require a lot of manual participation.
Mrs. Leia took a deep breath and asked, "Tell me, how much do you want?"
"At least three thousand people."
"How many?"
Aemon said shamelessly: "Three thousand people are enough. I will build a castle first."
Mrs. Leia was shrewd and calculated carefully: "It takes at least five to ten years to build a castle. Runestone City has a total of 20,000 households under its control. Are you going to kill 25% of the strong men in one breath!?"
It's April, and summer harvest is about to begin.
As a lord, she cannot ignore the harvest of her people.
Aemon waved his hand quickly: "No, you just need to give me the craftsmen and half the number of people, and I will go to King's Landing to gather the rest."
Rhaenyra has been running "Street Sanitation Improvement" and "Kingdom Wasteland Reclamation" for many years, and has adopted tenants composed of many orphans.
Because of this, her reputation as the "Light of the Kingdom" spread throughout the Seven Kingdoms.
Hearing this, Mrs. Leya raised her eyebrows and said seriously: "The king's letter was sent to me. What do you think of the princess's marriage?"
Aemon looked confused.
How else to watch it, of course, sit down and watch it.
"The king wants to recruit you as his wife, you should know it."
Lady Rhea was unequivocal.
Aemon nodded.
"What do you think?"
Mrs. Leya narrowed her eyes slightly and spoke sharply: "If you don't agree, you should stop thinking about the other party as soon as possible."
Aemon was stunned for a moment, and his brainstormed for a moment.
To be fair, both his uncle and Rhaenyra were good to him.
Especially Rhaenyra.
During their time in King's Landing, the two were basically in love with each other, and their relationship was as close as Allison's.
But I don't know if it's because I'm too familiar with it, or because I just can't get over it.
He saw Rhaenyra without much love between men and women.
Just treat him as a stupid partner.
Mrs. Leia observed her son's expression in detail and suddenly realized: "It seems that you don't like her, so I don't need to put in more effort."
"What's the meaning?"
Aemon stopped thinking and suddenly realized something was wrong.
What do you mean it doesn't require me to put in more effort?
Mrs. Leia straightened her back and said seriously: "As your mother, I can provide you with all the craftsmen in Rune Stone City, including three thousand men and logistical supplies."
"What about the conditions?"
Aemon asked.
There is no such thing as a free lunch, and my mother doesn't have that much maternal love for him.
Mrs. Leia tilted her head and said righteously: "If you want to get my support, your wife must be a valley girl."
