The Iron Throne of Ice and Fire

Chapter 124 Big fish eats small fish

The next morning, Maegortar's squire delivered a handwritten letter from Cersei Lannister.

Green took the letter stamped with Queen Cersei's seal from the steward of Sulana with some confusion.

Queen Cersei gave Greene a new task. In the next period of time, he would be responsible for Prince Tommen's swordsmanship lessons and Princess Myrcella's equestrian lessons.

Cersei has a big plan, and she will not reveal the specific content to Green, but it does not prevent Green from staying in King's Landing for the right reasons.

At this time, Cersei believes that Green's ability and loyalty are relatively reliable, because Green also has other arrangements in her plan.

After lowering his head to read the content, Green rubbed his hair.

Green feels that there are actually many reasons why he is not necessarily allowed to take care of the boss's children.

No matter what he thinks, Green will happily accept it. He can teach the prince and princess part of their lessons. This not only reflects Queen Cersei's trust in Green, but also an honor.

Earl Green pinched his chin. It seemed that defeating the Knight of Flowers had some effect.

After the Knight of Flowers woke up, wouldn't he think that he was accidentally attacked by Green?

Loras and Green are the same age, and they are in their prime of life. Shouldn't they shout "I was accidentally plotted by you last time" and then challenge them again?

Lord Grimm really wants to use Loras to build up his reputation. If he has another chance, he will play a little better and provide more materials for the bard.

"Martial, put on your armor for me!"

…………

Maegor's Tower Gardens.

Tommen is seven years old. He is a fat little boy with blond curly hair and green eyes.

"Earl Green, I heard that you defeated the Knight of Flowers?"

Tommen's hair shone like gold foil in the sun.

Green lowered his figure and said: "Your Highness Tommen, the sword skills of the Knight of Flowers are among the best among the Seven Kingdoms. Although I defeated him, I cannot deny his superb sword skills."

Green was very humble, and he listed the victories that the Knight of Flowers had won in various tournaments.

Although the Knight of Flowers was defeated by the more powerful Green, we will not deny his previous record.

Tommen's eyes lit up: "Earl Green, you are an upright and powerful knight."

Green waved away the attendant who was about to come forward, and helped Tommen put on the protective gear with his own hands.

Tommen, who has a gentle personality, is very excited today: "I like apple cake and cream cake best!"

After saying that, the little fat man added: "I don't like beets."

Green's hands kept moving, and he couldn't help but smile when he looked at the chubby little prince.

After putting on the protective gear, Tommen looked even more rounded.

Green stood aside while Tommen began to do some basic movements. It didn't take long for the little fat man to start sweating.

"Your Highness Tommen, your sword skills are very smooth, you are awesome."

"Strong Knight Tommen, please face the challenge bravely. It won't take long for you to defeat the Knight of Flowers!"

Breathing heavily, Tommen's morale suddenly rose, and he swung the wooden blunt sword into the air again.

Seeing that it was almost done, Green stopped and handed the towel to Tommen who was covered in sweat.

Tommen was confused for a moment, then stretched out his chubby hand to take it, and wiped the sweat awkwardly.

Green smiled. Tommen looked much cuter than Joffrey, who always had a pout on his lips.

Tommen's voice was clear and childish: "Earl Green, can I become the champion of the tourney in the future?"

Green's smile was gentle: "Your Highness, your talent is outstanding, you can definitely do it."

The little fat man looked very excited after receiving Green's approval.

Narrow Sea.

The petite Daenerys Targaryen stood on the bridge deck, with Dick and Borona behind her.

Daenerys stared expressionlessly at the battle below. She tightened her black cloak tightly, and the wide cloak covered her trembling body well.

Osana, leading the guards left behind by Green and the sailors on the ship, were fighting the pirates on another merchant ship.

While sailing south, Daenerys encountered a large merchant ship and a pirate ship fighting each other.

The kind-hearted Daenerys ordered the captain to bring their ship closer with the purpose of helping to fight off the pirates.

As they approached, the guards on the merchant ship were fighting with the pirates.

Daenerys's little face looked tired.

The night before leaving that day, Viserys was excited and talked to Dick all night, but he started to have a fever the next day.

Since her brother fell ill, Daenerys has been having nightmares every night. She only remembers that the dreams were scary, but she can't remember the specific scene when she wakes up.

After getting up this morning, the ship's doctor informed Viserys that his fever had finally begun to subside, and Daenerys, who had been worried about it, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Another one fell! Daenerys frowned slightly.

Although Daenerys doesn't understand military matters, she now knows that the Crab Claw Peninsula warriors given to her by Lord Greene are all rare elites.

Daenerys felt heartbroken when she saw several of the 20 guards in total fell down.

…………

After the battle, Osana came to report: "Princess Daenerys, this is a slave-trading merchant ship! When we passed by, all the slave traders on the ship had been killed by pirates."

Daenerys ignored the blood on Osana's body, stretched out her white hand, and said quickly: "Osana, are you injured?"

Osana shook her head, her smile was very simple: "Don't worry, this is other people's blood, those people can't hurt me!"

Daenerys still looked at it carefully and worriedly, then slightly nodded her chin.

Dick's eyes rolled and his voice was filled with excitement: "Princess Daenerys, their master is dead. Technically speaking, you are their new master now!"

Dick is the relatively most well-read person in Daenerys' team, and can also be said to be the only clerk. She was entrusted by Daenerys with the position of financial controller.

Daenerys shook her head, her tone firm: "I don't need slaves, I want to give them freedom!"

After speaking, Daenerys led everyone towards the merchant ship.

…………

The cabin door was pried open, and Daenerys slowly walked down the wooden ladder surrounded by guards.

What did Daenerys see? She saw shackles and countless pairs of empty eyes.

Daenerys, who has been wandering around various free trade gangs with her brother for many years, has not seen slaves before, but this is the first time she has experienced such a scene.

Living people were imprisoned in small, dark spaces like animals, and Daenerys was deeply shocked.

Daenerys' petite figure walked among the lifeless crowd, her eyes reddened unconsciously.

Daenerys returned to the wooden ladder. After climbing a few steps, she turned around and faced those empty eyes.

Daenerys really wanted to tell Greene who was far away in Westeros that she was easily nervous when facing many eyes, her body would tremble unconsciously, and she was still a little scared in her heart.

Daenerys inhaled slowly. She needed courage. At least now she had to learn to rely on herself!

Daenerys slowly raised her smooth chin and said loudly: "I am the daughter of Aerys II, the ruler of the Seven Kingdoms, the princess of Dragonstone, Daenerys Targaryen of Stormborn!"

"I am not a slave owner, and I will not enslave you! I will also break the shackles, and when we dock at the next port, you will have the freedom to leave!"

"After leaving this sinful ship, your freedom belongs only to you. If you want freedom, each of you must fight for it yourself!"

After Daenerys finished speaking, there was a long silence in the bed cabin.

A ray of sunlight came in through the hatch of the ship and shone on Daenerys' body, covering her with a layer of golden light.

There was a slight fluctuation in the empty eyes of countless pairs of eyes, as if they saw a goddess walking in the world.

One, two...swaying, the sound of shackles clashing was heard everywhere in the cabin, and everyone knelt down devoutly in the direction of Daenerys.

Under the shade of the tree, Green leaned against the tree and watched Myrcella and Tommen playing in the garden from a distance.

Green's ears moved, and he heard light footsteps and smelled lemon-scented powder.

Wallis, wearing a loose orange silk robe, came to Green's side with a smile.

Varys's eyes were focused in the distance, which was the direction where Myrcella and Tommen were playing.

Varys's tone seemed to be sighing: "The ears of great people are hidden everywhere in the Red Castle. Sometimes this is the most relaxing place."

You have the most little birds... Green nodded in agreement: "Lord Varys, whenever I enter the Red Keep, even if I am wearing armor, it seems like I am not wearing any clothes. I can always feel prying eyes from time to time."

Varys smiled: "The Red Castle has always been filled with darkness! Count Green, you will get used to it sooner or later."

Green shrugged his shoulders: "I think... I will never get used to it in this life. The longer I stay outside, the more I miss my hometown!"

Varys held his hands and said: "You may be the only person who can resist the charm of power. This is really amazing."

Green said with a smile: "I'm sorry for your compliment, maybe I just can't adapt! You have to be cautious every day here, as long as the time is a little longer, it will easily make you tired."

Varys nodded slightly and spoke with a small tone: "Storms come and go, huge waves wash over the head, big fish eat small fish, this is the center of the Seven Kingdoms."

Green smiled and said in an admiring tone: "Lord Varys, what a vivid metaphor. It seems that those who can sit still are all people with excellent paddling skills."

Varys covered his mouth and smiled for a while, then suddenly said: "Count Green, have you also received news from Pentos?"

Green nodded solemnly and said: "Kleber Trading Company in Pentos immediately sent the news. I heard it was a fire... It is very regrettable. Although I have not had much contact, I know that Governor Illyrio is a A very honest gentleman.”

Wallis looked sad: "I didn't expect that my old friend would suddenly suffer."

Green also sighed.
