Chapter 210 Brothers Meet
"My lord Viserys, and Princess Rhaenyra."

Allison Hightower smiled, bent over and gave a gift that was neither mediocre nor overly expensive.

"Alison, you have a heart, this dress...is very beautiful" Viserys sat on the throne without expression, and commented plainly.

Seeing Alison's bright eyes that wanted to swallow her father into her stomach, Rhaenira murmured, "Should we say that history still has inertia? Although she is not a successor, she still came here wearing a green dress..."

Other nobles also saluted one after another and presented their gifts.

Contrary to the generosity at the hunting banquet, the gift Jason Lannister gave was not in line with the value of the West Territory. Obviously, he realized that he could not become the husband of the king, and he did not intend to give Rhaenyla more gold coins. .

"Let's all sit down!"

Allison had a "surprise" for her.

However, isn't it just shaking people?She will too.

Rhaenyla clapped her hands and summoned the maid to bring her guests.

Footsteps came...

The first person to come over was naturally the dragon knight Lanar Velaryon. She was wearing the sea blue and black and red long dress of the Velaryon and Targaryen families, which set off her noble status.

Then came the hostess of the Valley, Jenny Arryn, and her companion, Jasmine Redford. The family pattern of the Moon Falcon represented the profound heritage of the Arryn family.

And Damon's wife Rhea Royce, Lisa Florent from the Riverbend, Lila Corbray from Heartland Valley, Kaleigh Reyes from Westmarch, Blackwood on the River The eldest daughter of the family and Sandra Tyrell holding the child...

In addition, noble families of all sizes from the king's land also came over, saluting Viserys and Rhaenyla.

Compared with the group of people surrounding the Hightower family, they really pale in comparison!
Then there is the mutual greeting between the nobles.

Alison and Redwyne got up and saluted their lord Tyrell—Sandra was the wife of the current Lord Tyrell, the old cow had eaten the young grass, and the baby was the next Lord of the Reach.

Kaley Reyes walked towards Lannister, but she just saluted briefly and then left, apparently not paying attention to Jason.

The relationship between these nobles is very complicated. If Rhaenyra wants to summarize it briefly, it is the entanglement between the vassals and the lord.

Financial strength and charisma determine the military power of nobles, and some vassals have charisma and history no less than their own lords!

In addition to facing the wildlings, the Stark family also faced the challenge of the Dreadfort, but because Stark was more popular and cohesive, Skinning Bolton was always suppressed.

Generally speaking, a lord is more attractive than a vassal, but whether the ancestors are rich is also important. Before Aegon landed, Tyrell was only the steward of the gardener family of the King of the Reach, and it is generally believed that his blood is not as good as that of High Tower. vassals like Florent and Florent are so honorable.

Tyrell's financial resources are relatively strong, but they are not as good as the vassals of Hightower and Redwyne. The typical lord and weak minister are strong, and the domestic appeal is slightly insufficient. This is also the reason why the High Court has married many nobles in the main story.

Tully in Hejian is in a similar situation, but slightly different, but compared to other great nobles, he also appears to be weak.

Appeal is an important benchmark to measure the strength of nobles. It is said that the Frey family "only" has a history of 600 years and everyone looks down on it, while the Stark family can trace back to Brandon, the "builder" 8000 years ago. Everyone in the Seven Kingdoms respect.

Lannister, like Stark, has been king in the western region for thousands of years and is one of the most noble surnames in the Seven Kingdoms. After the conquest, he is still the king of the western region, and his appeal is of course the top.

But... the current Western Territory does not have the strong cohesion of Tywin at that time.

The red lion, the Reyes family is another lion of the West!
Lannister has gold mines, and so does Reyes.

And he became a vassal of Lannister because the King of Casterly Rock married the daughter of the Reyes family.

Before Tywin came to power, his father was called "Laughing Lion", he was bullied by his vassals, seized power, and uttered the famous saying "Words are like the wind".

Those who bullied him... were Reyes and the Tarbeck family.

It wasn't until Tywin killed Reyes and Tarbeck in the rain of Castamere that everyone in the western region surrendered. Hearing this song, I thought of Tywin's majesty.

-

"Alison, do you want to compare your appeal with me?" Rhaenyla smiled without saying a word.

Although Hightower is the lighthouse of the southern border, the power of the dragon has already made all the nobles of the Seven Kingdoms bow down.

You are but a vassal of my vassals.

"The nobles are here, and I announce a royal decree."

Rhaenila's faint voice echoed in the camp, and the scene immediately became clear, and everyone held their breaths waiting for her to speak.

"Choose the marriageable daughters of the major nobles and enter the court to become maids and female officials, and the Iron Throne will assign marriages."

Hearing this sentence, Hightower and his allies looked shocked, and Alison opened her mouth in surprise.

These nobles still remembered how Aegon's queens Visenia and Rhaenys stabilized the situation in the Seven Kingdoms by selecting girls who were close to the nobles to enter the court, accompany the queen, and then be married by the royal family.

And after these girls become mistresses of noble families, they can indirectly influence the attitudes of their husbands and relatives towards the royal family.

So after Aegon conquered the Seven Kingdoms, the situation was very stable.

"This is the good governance of the ancestors. Now I want to pick it up again and strengthen the connection between the nobles and the royal family."

After hearing this, the nobles quickly replied, "As you wish, Your Royal Highness."

If she wants to marry, she will too!
Alison's face was even paler, and her plan of "summoning vassals" was nothing compared to Rhaenyla's.

Couldn't this be better than her... Allison gritted her teeth, and strong jealousy welled up in her heart.

Ever since she became Rhaenyla's "friend", she has been extremely envious of this princess who has attracted much attention since she was born.

But she...was sent to the court by her father when she was very young, first to accompany King Renrui in his old age, and then Viserys later, just like a chess piece, being pressed and unable to turn back.

Father Otto loves her, but her personal feelings are not important compared to the family's future.

"Light up the future..." Allison lowered her head, trying not to wet her green dress with tears.

"Princess Rhaenyla!" Jason Lannister asked in a hurried tone without seeing the change in the situation.

"My brother Tai Lan has not been whereabouts so far. You killed him?"

"You can eat the bread, but you can't talk!" Viserys, who was seated on the throne, scolded.

"Sir Jason, I can understand your feelings..." Rhaenyla said with a smile, "I didn't hurt Tyran."

"It's just that Tai Lan encountered an unfortunate incident while going to sea!" Jason's face turned red when he heard this sentence.

Also said that you did not harm him!
Live to see people, die to see corpses.

"He's recuperating in Maegor Mansion!" Jason froze when he heard this.

"If you want to see him, just follow my guards." Rhaenyla reminded with a smile, "But what I want to warn you is..."

"Tailan has suffered from a severe disease and curse, if you go to see him rashly, you will be hurt!"

curse?Hearing these words, all the nobles shuddered.
