Viserys took a bath to wash away the dirt on his body, then changed into lighter clothes, and then sat on the throne to listen to Rhaenys's achievements as regent during this period.
At this moment, the black dragon Balerion was lying on the ground next to the throne, and his heavy breathing kept ringing in the hall.
Viserys stroked its head gently with one hand.
"So many things have happened during this period?"
Viserys was slightly incredulous after hearing the maester's report, and then turned to look at Rhaenys.
However, the brown-haired girl's mood seemed to have improved a lot at the moment. She bit her lip and showed a smile. Then she was a little proud but didn't want to show it too strongly for fear of being seen by Viserys, and finally said
...
"fine."
She had expected Viserys to scold her, but this time had made everything messy.
However, he did not expect that Viserys did not blame her, but instead praised her for doing a good job, saying that with her taking charge of the overall situation at home, he would be able to better defend against foreign enemies outside.
After being praised by Viserys, Rhaenys suddenly felt a little more relaxed, and all the anxiety and uneasiness in her heart just now disappeared.
Seeing the optimistic smile finally appear on the girl's face, Viserys felt completely relieved.
Then the smile on his face faded slightly and he got down to business.
"No wonder I didn't see Bessie and Millie."
He was a little surprised that Bessie and Mili didn't come to greet him just now, but when he sat here, he realized that both of them had had accidents.
Bessie tried to run into the fire to save her mother but was severely burned. She barely managed to save her life and is still recovering from her injuries.
However, according to the maester, it was almost impossible to pick up the sword again in the future, and his appearance was ruined. He was afraid that seeing Viserys would scare him, so he did not appear.
Viserys' magical advisor Mirri was burned to death in an accident more than a month ago.
"Accident?"
In troubled times, human life is like an ant. Even if the witch has extraordinary power, she will die on the spot if she is not careful.
Viserys did not expect that Mirri would die like this, and was silent for a while.
"What's going on?"
Then he was silent for a long time before asking again.
There were not only Viserys, Rhaenys and Maester in the hall, Oberyn was also sitting on a chair on one side, but Prince Dorn's more attention still fell on Balerion.
How many people have seen a living dragon?
"It couldn't have done it, could it?"
Oberyn pointed at the black dragon, and then said jokingly.
However, when Oberyn finished speaking, Rhaenys and the maester were both silent. Oberyn, who had just said it casually, was stunned for a moment when he saw this.
"Am I right?"
Viserys frowned slightly.
Faced with the current situation, the bachelor could only cough lightly and then speak.
"Your Majesty, Ms. Mili was most likely murdered."
"A few days ago..."
The bachelor told the story about a red-haired witch who came to the castle more than a month ago, and that night, Mirri had an accident and was burned to death.
After the maester finished speaking, Rhaenys raised her hand and spoke.
"No..."
"I think it was either the witch or this guy Balerion who did it."
After hearing what Rhaenys said, the black dragon who was lying on the ground and dozing off raised his head slightly alertly.
And Viserys gently reached out and touched the black dragon's ferocious head, calming its anxious mood.
"Witch?"
"Tell me specifically who it is."
Rhaenys then recounted the specific causes and consequences, a bit more detailed than the maester.
"What did you call this witch?"
Viserys heard half of it, and then couldn't help but interrupt Rhaenys and asked.
"Melisandre?"
Rhaenys was slightly startled and nodded.
"Yes, that's right. Do you know her?"
However, Viserys was silent for a moment and shook his head.
"No, I don't know this person."
"Go on."
Viserys then heard the whole story, including the fact that Rhaenys directly took Melisandre to prison in order to protect the black dragon.
"oh?"
Hearing that the idea came from Maester Gunther, Viserys raised his head and glanced at him.
The maester was looking down at the floor at his feet, not noticing Viserys' gaze.
"It seems that this messenger of the Lord of Light is very likely to be innocent."
Then Viserys withdrew his gaze and stood up from the throne.
"In that case."
"I'm going to meet this guy."
...
Paul is a soldier of the Andalus City Defense Force, and his duty station is in the prison. He is mainly responsible for guarding the criminals in the prison on weekdays.
Such peaceful and leisurely days passed for a long time.
A month ago, a special criminal was imprisoned here, and everything in the prison changed.
This is a beautiful woman with red hair, Paul does not need to question her beauty, and she seems to be accused of murder.
But what surprised him was that this woman who committed such a serious crime could still enjoy extraordinary special treatment.
She can have a cell by herself, and there is almost no difference between it and the outside world except for the restriction of personal freedom.
Paul secretly guessed that she might be the mistress of some adult, so she could enjoy such extraordinary treatment in prison.
Because of her beauty, Paul had actually been observing this woman secretly, and then discovered that she seemed to be very willing to talk to other soldiers and criminals.
No matter men or women, they can talk for a long time every time, and then the other party will leave thoughtfully, and come over again the next day.
He even lit a bonfire with this woman at dusk, and then prayed in front of the bonfire.
"what on earth is it?"
"What did they talk about?"
Paul was a little curious.
However, one day, the red-haired woman finally noticed Paul's presence and waved to him.
Paul walked over by mistake, and then...
…
"The king is here."
A period of time later, there was a sudden uproar in this peaceful prison.
It turned out that His Majesty the King, who had just returned from victory, suddenly came to the prison and seemed to want to meet a criminal.
It was the red-robed witch who was imprisoned here before.
"Sacrifice..."
Paul's heart was a little tight. He didn't know why the king came here this time. Could it be that... he wanted to execute Ms. Melisandre?
However, just when Paul was feeling anxious, he saw a silver-haired young man walking towards him surrounded by guards, and then gave him a strange look.
