Chapter 41 Sneaking out

 Leaving Rhaegar's room, Rhaenyra's heart became heavier and heavier.

She just wanted to go back to her room, take a hot bath, and sleep in the warm quilt.

 Today was too depressing for her.

 When you wake up, it’s a new day.

Cole was standing guard outside her door. Rhaenyra greeted him and walked into her room.

 While disassembling earrings and accessories, he poured a glass of sake from the table as usual.

Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a package suddenly placed on the table.

The sudden appearance of the package caught Rhaenyra's attention, and she looked around the room.

 Confirming that there was no second person, she picked up a corner of the package and tilted the mouth of the bag downwards.

 A set of rustic linen clothes fell out.

There is also a piece of white paper with a simple map drawn on it.

Picking up the white paper and looking at it, Rhaenyra was surprised to find that it was a guide map for the secret passage of the Red Keep.

The content on the paper is somewhere in her room.

 Come to the location marked on the guide map, which is a wall with carved murals.

Hand out your hand and push hard, the wall opens outward, revealing the night view outside the Red Fort.

Beyond the wall, a staircase surrounded by iron bars leads to an unknown path.

Rhaenyra raised the corners of her mouth, interested.

 She enjoys exploring, just like the thrill of flying with a dragon.

  Going back to the table and taking off her gorgeous gown, Rhaenyra put on her patched linen clothes.

 I sniffed it gently, and there was no strange smell.

 After disguising herself, Rhaenyra walked out of the room along the secret passage.

Walking through the dark tunnels, we passed by the sept where Balerion’s skull was enshrined…

 Finally arrived at a corner of the Red Fort.

There, a man in black robes waited for a long time.

 Under Rhaenyra's probing eyes, the man in black robe turned around, revealing a familiar face.

 “Daemon?”

Rhaenyra whispered in surprise.

Damon smiled and suggested: "Want to go out for a walk and see scenes you haven't seen before?"

Glancing back, Rhaenyra hesitated.

 She thought it was not good to sneak out with her uncle late at night.

Damen saw her embarrassment and said deliberately: "Why, don't you dare to go out? I want to go back and be your little princess."

Rhaenyra's sense of disapproval instantly stimulated her, and she gritted her teeth and said, "I'm not going back, I'll just leave."

"very good."

Damon put on his hood, turned around and led her outside the Red Keep.

Rhaenyra followed, uneasy but excited.

 …

 Dimeng led the way to the famous Silk Street.

 Compared to the free trade during the day, the Silk Street at night is bustling with people and a mixture of people.

The uncle and nephew walked through the crowded alleys, where there were all kinds of vendors and sideshows.

There are even men and women having fun on the spot, without caring about others watching.

 A flower with a very beautiful posture.

Rhaenyra was shocked by this royal courtesy.

She was so reserved that she raised her hands to cover the side of her face to prevent the dirty scene from staining her eyes.

Curiosity prompted her to open her fingers and peek through the gaps.

Have you ever seen such a scene?

 The two of them walked and walked until they came to a circus where many people gathered.

The theater actors on the stage are acting out the Targaryen royal family.

This is a wonderful time.

 Two men play the children, and a clown plays the princess in a white dress.

The lead actor acted funny and narrated the narration in a weird tone.

“Now let’s talk about the great Iron Throne and whose **** will sit on it?”

 “Our gracious king appointed his own daughter, a girl, as his heir.”

 “The former queen gave birth to a son and was drowsy all day long.”

 “The new queen, she also gave birth to a child, a healthy son!”

“So, which heir will take the throne?”

“The king’s brother? His daughter? Or his two sons from different wombs?”

At this point, the two actors playing children were pushing each other and shouting each other's names.

“I am Aegon, with the name of a conqueror and the glory of a man!”

    “I am the sleeping dragon, and the king is my father, accept the wrath of the sleeping dragon!”     The plot reached the climax, and the audience cheered and applauded the funny performance.

Rhaenyra gradually lost her smile and watched the performance incomprehensively.

Soon, the actor playing Rhaegar pushed his opponent down and jumped on him, shaking him left and right.

  He shouted: "I am the king's eldest son, no one can compete with me..."

The actor underneath him begged for mercy and rolled on the ground.

 The audience was even more excited and cheered.

Rhaenyra couldn't laugh at all. She glared at Daemon with dissatisfaction and said angrily: "It's a boring joke. Why don't you show me this?"

Daemon said lightly: "It is indeed a joke, but many civilians believe that as male heirs, Rhaegar and Aegon should be the heirs."

 “It doesn’t matter what they think.”

 Rhaenyra retorted, not wanting to watch any more boring performances.

Daemon followed behind and said casually: "If you plan to rule the world in the future, their ideas are crucial."

 “Tch, sometimes I really want to put down the burden of being the heir.”

Rhaenyra sounded self-deprecating.

“Haha, if you give up this position, you will only make it easier for others.”

Dimon has something to say.

Rhaenyra glared at him and said displeasedly: "Including you!"

Damon curled his lips and did not deny it.

Seeing that he looked like a dead pig that was not afraid of being scalded by boiling water, Rhaenyra grabbed the candied fruit from a vendor nearby and threw it on him, then ran away.

The noisy noise could not cover up the girl's venting cheers.

Da Meng had no expression on his face, pushed away the blocking vendor, and quickly followed.

 …

  Red Fort.

As the night progressed, Helena got tired from playing and went back to sleep, while Rhaegar turned off the lights and rested alone.

Lying on the bed and falling asleep, Rhaegar fell into a dream again.

 He dreamed that he was wearing a white robe and holding a sword.

Looking around, there are broken arms and mountains of corpses and seas of blood all over the place.

Rhaegar was puzzled, but was nauseated by the smell of blood.

Hunted his head and vomited, his white robe fell softly to his sides, and a little mottled blood stain appeared out of thin air.

Rhaegar discovered exactly this.

Before I could take a closer look, the blood stain, which was only a dot at first, spread outwards and became more and more numerous.

In the blink of an eye, half of the white robe was filled with stains and blood dripping down.

 A gust of dark wind blew by, and the white robe flew up with the wind, covering Rega's head.

Seeing this scene, Rega felt inexplicable fear.

"When the wind stops, the **** robe will definitely fall on me, and the blood will stain my head and face."

 A thought flashed across his mind, and Rhaegar ran away, trying to leave White Robe behind.

 In this way, when the **** robe falls, it will not be contaminated by him.

However, the half-white and half-red robe seemed to be staring at him.

 No matter where he ran, no matter how fast he ran.

 will be hanging above his head with the strong wind, waiting for the moment when the wind stops.

 A feeling of powerlessness filled his heart, and Rhaegar could no longer run.

 The robe is about to fall.

"don't want!"

A cry of surprise resounded through the room, and Rhaegar opened his eyes suddenly, awakened by a nightmare.

Rhaegar wanted to sit up and pull the blood scab on his back, but the severe pain brought him back to reality instantly.

 “His~ I have another nightmare!”

  Tears squeezed out of the corners of his eyes, and Rhaegar punched the pillow in pain.

 It hurts so much!

  Cuckoo Cuckoo…

As soon as the pain subsided, a cuckoo's call came from outside the window.

Rhaegar was surprised when he heard the sound: "It's usually cicadas chirping, where are the cuckoos coming from?"

  Cuckoo Cuckoo…

The chirping of birds continues, with a very uniform rhythm.

Rhaegar realized something was wrong.

There are no cuckoos in the Red Keep, they have all been eaten by those stupid cats who are not doing anything serious.

I thought about it and thought it was time to review the previous chapters and re-examine the relationship between the protagonist and his sister.

Give me a moment so you can leave your expectations for the protagonist and Rhaenyra.

Are you following the traditions of close relatives?
