A ray of bright sunlight shone into the house from the window, leaving a square spot of light on the floor, with a layer of fine dust floating above.
The sound of the waves outside was surging, constantly lapping on the rocks, and it seemed that it would never stop. The fishermen's songs were distant, but they became inaudible when they reached the castle. White seagulls landed in groups on the castle walls.
At the top, looking into the distance.
Everything has passed.
War, storm, rebellion.
Only in the gaps between the stone slabs of the castle can you detect some traces of today's pre-dawn fighting.
The surviving soldiers and servants in the castle are busy cleaning the remaining blood stains and human tissue in these gaps.
Wow——
The soldiers carried a bucket of cold water and washed it down. The water continued to flow downstairs along the stairs.
Then the servants rushed forward and rubbed it vigorously with rags.
"This way!"
"Clean them all up."
The old maid Sophia, who followed from the Red Keep and fled all the way to Dragonstone, became the leader of the servants and directed them to clean up the castle.
In the midst of this intense cleaning, Viserys finally woke up slowly from the bed. He raised a hand to rub his sleepy eyes. His long silver-gold hair was a little messy and curled up to cover it.
The boy's beautiful eyes caught his attention.
"ha..."
The boy sat on the bed and opened his arms, stretched slightly, and then yawned again.
"sleepy."
Viserys wanted to fall back and sleep again, but unfortunately Rhaenys would not allow him to be so lazy.
Bang bang bang——
Just as Viserys was about to lie down, he was awakened by the violent banging of the door outside. The sleepy bugs in his mind suddenly disappeared without a trace, and he became extremely awake.
"Hey!"
"Viserys, it's time to get up, the sun is beating down on your butt."
The girl's clear and sweet voice came from outside the door. She was transferred to another place in advance by Viserys last night and did not experience this fight.
In fact, these traitors were focused on Viserys, the heir to House Targaryen.
He is a boy, so naturally he is a thorn in Baratheon's side.
"Damn..."
When Viserys heard the lively sounds outside the door, he felt a slight headache.
Renes is lively and cute, with an out-of-the-box personality. Although she is young, she already has some signs of being a demon king. Without her mother's discipline, Renes is becoming more and more lawless.
Viserys will not take care of her, and no one in the entire Dragonstone Castle can take care of this little princess.
Then Viserys responded, then sat on the bed and put on the complicated and gorgeous clothes step by step.
In fact, Queen Layla wanted to arrange a maid for Viserys to help him dress and bathe, but Viserys refused.
He only wanted to live alone in his own house, and then lock the door from the inside, so that Viserys would feel safe and sleep more peacefully and sweetly.
And Viserys wasn't used to others helping him get dressed, even if he was just an eight-year-old boy, that part was just a mini and cute 'little thing'.
But he still has a strong sense of privacy and refuses to be seen by these old women.
So Viserys's daily life was completed by him alone.
The boy stood in front of the silver-plated round mirror, and a black mist gradually filled the air. However, Viserys ignored him calmly, still looking at the mirror and straightening his collar.
This mysterious black mist has been with Viserys for more than half a year. From the beginning, Viserys was afraid, curious, and exploring, but now he has become accustomed to it, ignoring the other party and calmly adjusting his collar.
However, the black mist was still rolling slowly, and the escaping black smoke dissipated into the air, revealing a mysterious and strange aura. Others could not see the black mist that appeared in Viserys' field of vision.
Then the boy's eyes left the silver mirror, turned around and left the bedroom, while the black mist behind him continued to roll and slowly dissipated in place.
"Hey, why did you get up so late today?"
As soon as Viserys walked out, the little brown-haired girl pouted and hugged his arm and complained.
Because she was not at Dragonstone last night, Rhaenys did not know what happened last night, and naturally had no way of knowing why Viserys got up so late.
Because Viserys had just finished handling all the things when it got dark, and had time to go back to the bedroom and take off his leather armor, and then went to bed.
"His Majesty."
"Lord Jeffrey is waiting for you in the lobby."
A guard guarding the outside saw Viserys, bowed his head slightly, saluted, and then spoke.
Then seeing Viserys's gaze shift, the guard glanced at Rhaenys, and then added in a low voice.
"It's true... we have some clues about what happened last night."
Viserys was stunned for a moment, and then his expression became clearer. He understood what the guard meant.
It was probably the illegitimate child who was captured last night, whose mouth had been pried open. Sir Geoffrey thought he had gotten relatively important information from his mouth, and hurried over to tell him.
"Go to the Picture Table Hall."
Later, after Viserys regained consciousness, he handed Rhaenys into the custody of the guards.
He didn't want the girl to be exposed to these things too early, after all, the incident more than half a year ago still left a psychological shadow on Rhaenys.
As an uncle, Viserys will naturally try to spread his wings and protect Rhaenys's safety.
Immediately, the little king strode to the table hall.
...
Soon after.
Viserys came here, met the old knight who had been waiting for a long time, and then got a shocking news from him.
"What?"
After hearing the news, Viserys was slightly stunned, a little in disbelief.
"Sir, are you saying that this despicable bastard gave both me and my mother a large amount of hallucinogens?"
last night.
Sir Geoffrey brought David Sand back to the camp like a dead dog, then hung him for life and interrogated him all night.
The other party seemed to have given up hope of survival and told everything he knew in one breath.
This acting city lord of Dragonstone once bribed the chef and put a lot of hallucinogens into the meals of Queen Layla and Viserys.
This illegitimate son hoped to kill the mother and son in this way silently and without attracting anyone's attention.
After all, with the 'Mad King' as a warning, it is natural that the Targaryen family has mad genes in their blood.
Queen Leila's subsequent state was obviously due to the effects of hallucinogens.
As for Viserys, even the traitor didn't understand why.
He even increased the dose of hallucinogens to large amounts, but still nothing happened to Viserys.
