Chapter 460 Light of the Kingdom
There was an argument going on in the council hall, and half of the Red Keep could hear it.

The servants were silent and focused on finding work to do.

A marble floor that was polished to a shiny finish.

……

Princess bedroom.

Rhaenyra was taking a nap and vaguely heard whispers outside the door.

He frowned at first, then opened his eyes blankly.

"Sarah, what's going on?"

Rhaenyra struggled to stand up, her voice hoarse and soft.

creak-

The voices disappeared and the door was pushed open.

Sarah showed no expression. She quickly stepped forward to support him and said with concern, "Watch your stomach. The maester said not to press it."

"I will."

Rhaenyra smiled and gently stroked her pregnant belly through her suspender nightgown.

After eight months of pregnancy, the scale is quite impressive.

Sarah was afraid that she would not take it seriously, so she advised: "The maester told you to eat less and walk more. Twins are not easy to give birth to."

There is a baby in one belly and some pregnant women may have difficult labor.

With two babies in one belly, the risk increases exponentially.

According to the bachelor, starving the baby in the belly appropriately can reduce the chance of dystocia.

"Don't always tell the maester everything."

Rhaenyra was very distressed: "I moved around a lot, but I was really hungry. I have never been hungry since I was a child."

Sarah: "Whatever."

Rhaenyra took her hand and gave her a flattering smile: "Don't be angry, what happened outside?"

After being together for many years, she still has a lot of feelings for this maid friend who protects her.

Sara told the truth: "The queen convened a royal meeting to impeach Prince Rhaegar..."

He talked a lot, telling all the information the maid had collected in one breath.

Rhaenyra looked stunned, unable to believe her ears, and asked in confusion, "Alyson wanted to recall Rhaegar, so he asked the Faith of the Seven?"

I'm afraid she's not crazy!

Ever since King Aerys I ascended the throne, the Faith of the Seven has been openly and covertly opposing the Iron Throne and restricting the rights that the Targaryen family deserves.

King Aeles I's children, Aegon and Rhaena, followed family traditions and were almost beaten to death in the street by the nobles and commoners who were instigated by the High Septon.

Great-grandfather Jaehaerys came to power and was forced to sign peace terms in exchange for peaceful coexistence with the Faith of the Seven.

You know, the unspoken rule that those clauses cannot be recorded almost made the Targaryens abandon the traditions of ancient Valyria in order to integrate into the continent of Westeros.

Sarah simply said, "The queen accused the prince of having selfish motives."

"asshole!"

Rhaenyra cursed inwardly, furious.

Of course she knows what selfishness is.

Gritting his teeth, he climbed out of the bed and said, "Help me change my clothes."

She is the princess of Dragonstone, and the royal meeting cannot bypass her.

Rhaegar certainly had his own selfish motives, but there were more purposes to suppressing the faith of the Seven Gods than just those trivial jokes.

As long as the Faith of the Seven does not obey the royal power, the Targaryens will be restrained.

Rhaegar flattened the Three Kingdoms of Women and conquered the entire Dorne. This opportunity was hard-won and must not be lost.

Sara helped her out of bed, quickly fetched a shoulder-baring dress, and said casually, "You don't have to show up. It will disturb the fetus."

"I am Rhaegar's sister!"

Rhaenyra retorted, saying seriously, "Alison is a confused woman. I am the only one in King's Landing who can control her. She can't mess with my brother."

After getting dressed, I was ready to go out.

Just as I was about to step out of the bedroom, I caught a glimpse of the wall out of the corner of my eye.

There, hanging an exquisite one-handed sword.

Valyrian Steel Sword - Light of the Realm

Rainier's eyes narrowed, and she turned back with her big belly, taking down the exclusive tribal sword from the wall.

Swah——

The rapier was unsheathed, the blade shining silver as day, reflecting the refracted light of the water ripples.

The hilt is in the shape of a cross, with a bright sun and a full moon carved on the front and back respectively.

pat-

Satisfied, Rhaenyra sheathed her sword.

Turn around and walk out.

The sword has not yet seen blood.

If Alisson dared to shout, Rhaegar would not be able to do anything to him. As a sister, he would ask his evil stepmother to test whether the title of the Light of the Kingdom was in vain.

……

Parliament Hall.

Rhaenyra came over with a determined look and a menacing attitude.

When the two white knights guarding the gate saw the princess's posture, they didn't know whether they should stop her.

What a dilemma!
Rhaenyra glared fiercely, and the two white knights immediately became obedient and lowered their heads to admire the floor.

At the same time, there was a fierce quarrel in the hall.

Alicent was no longer calm. She stood up from her chair and spoke in a loud voice: "I will not allow anyone to destroy the harmonious relationship between the royal family and the Faith of the Seven Gods. If Viserys is sober, he will never tolerate it!"

After being married for many years, she knew Viserys better than anyone else.

A wimp who is used to taking warning from history books.

Ancient Valeria invaded the world with dragons, but was eventually destroyed by a world-destroying natural disaster.

After Viserys lost Balerion, he became afraid of dragons and was reluctant to use dragons to disrupt peace.

Maegor I attacked the Faith of the Seven with such cruelty.

Viserys followed the political legacy of his grandfather, King Jaehaerys, and maintained good relations with the Faith of the Seven Gods, almost responding to every request.

Allison is confident that her husband will support her.

"Gulu~~"

He picked up the wine cup and took a sip, subconsciously covering up his inexplicable guilt.

Viserys would support her, they were husband and wife.

Although she asked Maester Mukun to feed her unconscious husband a little milk of the poppy, she was not afraid that he would suddenly wake up and oppose her.

That foolish husband who favors his eldest son.

Allison gnashed his teeth secretly, and the fingers holding the wine cup turned white unconsciously from the force.

boom--

At this moment, the door to the hall was pushed open almost violently.

Allison was startled and looked away. The two bribed white knights lowered their heads and opened the door quickly and violently.

Allison was stunned for a moment, not yet reacting to the situation.

"Alison, you have no right to represent my father!"

With her head held high, Rainier entered the hall with great momentum.

As soon as he appeared, he shocked everyone.

Tormund and Orvel stood up and greeted in unison, "Your Highness."

The two of them were royal ministers supported by Rhaegar, and they saw that Rhaenyra did not respond or support them.

The queen used her status to pressure others, and the argument became meaningless.

The princess is here, and the offense and defense are changed.

Rainier waved her hand politely for the two to sit down, then walked straight to her former best friend and asked first, "Why didn't you notify me when you convened the imperial meeting?"

"Rhaenyra, you..."

Allison was at a loss, looking the other man up and down.

Her long, smooth silver-gold hair was draped behind her head, and her beautiful face was not made up or wore any other jewelry.

It was obvious that he had come in a hurry.

Looking down, I saw one hand supporting his big belly and the other holding a silver sword.

Alisson's pupils shrank, and he screamed, "Raenyra, you are a pregnant woman, about to give birth, and you are running around with a weapon. Have you forgotten all the noble education you received!?"

The stereotypes of Westeros.

Noble girls received a ladies' education, learned how to weave, and were taught how to read and do arithmetic.

Girls were not allowed to wield swords, and the most power they had was limited to managing their husband's castle affairs.

Rhaenyra had served as the king's cupbearer and learned government at the King's Small Council, both of which were special favors given to her because of her status as heir to the Iron Throne.

"I don't want to waste time on you, answer my question!"

Rhaenyra slammed her sword on the table and calmly sat in Rhaegar's usual seat. She said in a serious tone, "What right do you have to skip my call to a royal council? In what capacity do you call a royal council? And in what capacity do you impeach the crown prince?!"

The words are sharp and the attack is fierce.

Allison felt dizzy after the retort and couldn't refute it after several attempts.

According to the rules.

The queen has no right to be regent, and will not impeach the crown prince unless she is offended.

On the contrary, as the Princess of Dragonstone, although Rhaenyra's right of succession was moved down one place, in theory she still retained the qualification to attend the royal meeting.

Alisen was shaking with anger and whispered, "Rhaenyra, the maester said you are expecting a baby. You should go back to your room and rest."

For twins, the pregnancy period is more or less different from that of a normal pregnant woman.

Rhaenyra refused to listen to her nonsense and reprimanded her, "The peace terms were signed by my great-grandfather to quell the rebellion. They do not mean that the faith of the Seven Gods overrides the royal power. As a queen, I hope you can maintain your due rationality."

Leonor and others were all shocked and couldn't say a word.

He openly denounced the Queen and the Faith of the Seven, and that was just short of saying it out loud.

Tell Allison to keep his ass straight and not go to the Starry Temple.

"Crazy, all crazy!"

Allison almost collapsed. Unable to argue, she shouted outside the door: "Kingsguard, the princess is pregnant, why don't you help her go back to her room to rest!"

Fortunately, she was well prepared in advance and expected that someone would jump out to object.

The gate was not closed, and two white knights stood guard on the left and right.

Hearing the queen's call, their faces turned dark at the same time, and they walked in reluctantly.

Rhaenyra raised her eyebrows and stared at the two white knights.

Sir Rickard Thorne was born in the Thorne family of the Crown Territory and was the second son of a small noble family.

Sir Willy Fell was from the Fell family in Stormlands, and was also a member of a neglected branch of the family.

The brothers Eric and Alec were seriously injured while protecting the king and are now recuperating in bed.

Cole, who has returned to the Iron Guard, is far away in Dorne.

Lorente and Stephen were loyal to the king and guarded the palace at all times.

Rhaenyra did not expect that there would be someone who dared to go against her, so she maintained her dignity and said, "My two lords, please leave the council hall now. I will not pursue your offense."

The two white knights looked at each other and said in unison: "The king ordered us to protect the queen. Please forgive me, Princess."

Rhaenyra's face changed.

Allison taunted, "No need to persuade them. They know who the mistress of the Red Castle is. You should go down and take care of your baby now."

"You're talking nonsense!" Rainier couldn't hold back her composure.

Allison was stunned, thinking he had heard it wrong.

Rhaenyra didn't have time to pay attention to her and gave a look to Tormund who was sitting across the table.

He bribed two Kingsguards to pretend to be with her. How arrogant of him.

From the two thousand capital garrison in King's Landing and the eight hundred warriors in the Dragon's Lair, to the five hundred royal guards in the Red Keep and the remaining five hundred resident Dreadnaughts.

Since Rhaegar is not here at the moment, everyone is obedient to her.

Tormund understood the look and nodded calmly.

Without any control, the white falcon on his shoulder flew out of the hall.

His presence could be seen inside and outside the Red Castle, and within a minute someone would notify the Royal Guard to rush up.

Allison was not stupid. He knew the strangeness of the shapeshifters and quickly ordered, "Take the princess away quickly and don't disturb the imperial meeting."

She was tired of being held back.

He wanted to take advantage of Viserys's sleep and stop Rhaegar from doing anything in the name of the Iron Throne.

She even recalled Junchuang to fulfill her filial duty and give her two sons more opportunities to make meritorious contributions.

Rainier's tyranny disrupted her original plan, and things became out of control.

Two white knights stepped forward and said in a muffled voice: "Princess, please don't embarrass us."

I regretted being bribed by the queen, but I had to do it.

The Kingsguard is a special group. As long as they don’t commit regicide or rebellion, no matter how serious their crimes are, they will be forgiven.

Rhaenyra sat still, pushed the Light of the Kingdom forward, and said calmly, "Try to touch me if you dare."

The two white knights froze their hands in mid-air and looked at the queen.

Allison looked anxious, covering his eyes with one hand and waving the other: "Don't hurt her."

"Yes!"

The two white knights were about to take action.

As soon as he stretched out his hand, the expressions of the people present changed.

Rainier couldn't believe it and subconsciously moved back, not wanting to be touched.

A princess of a country was dragged out of the parliament hall by the Kingsguard, and when the news got out, it would become a topic of conversation for the people for the next ten years.

"you……"

Rhaenyra was furious and wanted to scold.

At this moment, a weak voice with insufficient breath suddenly came from outside.

"You are so insolent, all of you retreat!"
