The Iron Throne of Ice and Fire

Maegor's Tower, Queen's Hall.

Queen Cersei sat at the head of the long table, with Jaime and the stewards sitting on both sides.

Green was somewhat interested at first, but as he listened, he couldn't help but become distracted by boredom.

"At recent banquets, Dornish summer reds appeared more often than Arbor wines."

"Yes, summer red is becoming more and more popular."

"Highgarden's armless skirt, almost every noble lady in King's Landing has one now."

"Well, Highgarden's jewelry is also popular among ladies."

"Yes, I heard that Lord Janos bought a large box of Highgarden jewelry in order to please his new lover."

[Count Janos, full name Janos Sterling, Commander-in-Chief of the Capital Guard (Golden Robe)]

"Which poor girl can tolerate Genos's frog face?"

"He looks like a wine barrel."

"Is Genos still collecting golden dragons from his men?"

"Naturally, you can't teach an old dog new tricks."

"There is no other way. He is deeply trusted by His Majesty Robert and holds 6,000 gold robes."

"It's hard for the little girls."

"He can only hook up with an illegitimate daughter. No legitimate daughter would fall in love with a butcher's son."

"Not necessarily, I heard..."

"You said it yourself. You just heard it, so it's a rumor."

The discussion among the stewards strayed into gossip, and James coughed lightly at the right time.

Green has changed some of his impressions of these colleagues. After listening carefully, there is actually a lot of useful information, and he is also the queen's fashion consultant.

James said: "Continuing the last discussion, Her Royal Highness the Queen used steel gates for hunting in King's Landing in previous years, and this cannot be changed this time."

Everyone fell silent for a while.

After the stewards' meeting began, Queen Cersei spoke out for the first time: "Why don't you say anything? Are those untouchables still spreading rumors?"

Lancel looked around and said: "According to tradition, there will be less trouble. Rumors are spreading. If Huan rashly changes the route out of the city, it will be exactly what he wants, and our Queen will be stigmatized."

Queen Cersei's lips curved with satisfaction: "Lancel, continue."

Lancel nodded and clenched his fists: "There are only eight days left. My advice is to severely punish the rumor mongers. Only with a lot of heads will people understand that the noble queen cannot be slandered at will."

From Green's perspective, he could just see Lancel's thighs trembling slightly after he finished speaking.

Is it to please Cersei? Or is this actually what Cersei herself meant?

James held an opposing opinion: "There are nearly 20,000 civilians in the Queen's District. Lancel, how many people do you think will be killed to end the rumors? How to quell the riots that may be caused by the killings?"

James' gaze was so intimidating that Lancel didn't dare to look directly at him and avoided his gaze.

The performance of Jaime and Lancel made Cersei's expression unable to hide her disappointment and anger.

"By the way, why is this smelly and dirty place called the Queen's Quarter?"

"Yes, yes, it is one of the poorest areas in the entire King's Landing."

In fact, everyone here knows the origin of the Queen's District, but they are just looking for something to say to ease the tense atmosphere.

Queen Cersei took over the conversation: "I asked the maester for advice. Oh, a certain queen of Aegon the Conqueror once drank a bowl of water offered by a pariah there."

"Oh, I see."

"These people are so shameless. The place where the queen drank a bowl of water was called the Queen's Quarter. Aegon must have been around at that time, so why not call it the King's Quarter."

"The specific truth is not important, it's just that the name can easily be exploited by people with ulterior motives."

"Yes, yes, there is a disease spreading in the Queen's District, but they are pointing the finger at our queen. How dare they say that the queen's unkindness brought the disease."

"The hunting team in King's Landing... The Queen's carriage must pass by the Queen's District, for fear that it will cause riots, which will not be conducive to the safety of Her Royal Highness the Queen, and will also affect the Queen's prestige in King's Landing."

"There will definitely be something wrong. This time the rumors came out of the blue, and they are aimed at Her Royal Highness the Queen's hunting in the royal forest."

Cersei tilted her head slightly and looked towards Jaime: "Merciful Sir Jaime, do you have any good ideas?"

Hearing Cersei's words, James frowned: "According to the information I got today, the atmosphere in the Queen's Quarter is very bad. If there is blood... it is very likely to cause a large-scale riot."

Cersei seemed to have lost her patience and was unwilling to listen to the so-called excuses, so she interrupted: "Tell me the specific method."

James didn't mind Cersei's reaction and smiled: "Throw some golden dragons. This is the fastest. One or two thousand golden dragons are enough."

One or two thousand golden dragons? !

Green, who had been quiet all this time, moved his ears.

Green found that Cersei's expression was obviously emotional, so Lannister.

Green felt that it was time for him to appear, for the sake of the poor people of Kleb.

Green coughed lightly to attract attention, stood up, and said to Queen Cersei: "Your Highness, I have the liberty to make some suggestions."

Cersei seemed to attach great importance to the newly arrived Baron Green. She nodded with a gentle face, and extended her hand to indicate that she could sit down and talk.

"Your Excellency James's suggestion is very good, but I have to remind you that you have ignored their next appetite, or their next appetite."

James looked sideways at Green but said nothing.

Don’t they all say that James has a great spirit of chivalry? Why do I feel like he is always targeting me!

Green continued: "I actually agree with Lord Lancel's advice."

Lancel looked at Greene with such bright eyes that Greene trembled secretly.

Hearing that Green supported Lancel's beheading plan, James' eyes became frightening again.

Green imitated James and gave a sideways glance: "We can't ignore Her Royal Highness the Queen's return trip after her royal forest hunting. At that time, we will have to pass through the Queen's District again."

Everyone nodded slightly.

"Rumors are the first problem, and I think this is the easiest to solve."

No one came out to ridicule, and everyone showed doubts at the right time.

"It turned out to be a rumor, which has its own weaknesses. We can use bigger rumors to weaken or even eliminate the rumors that are not conducive to Her Royal Highness the Queen."

The stewards thought about Green's words and exclaimed in amazement.

Lancel's eyes seemed to be fixed on Green: "Sir Green, for example?"

Green smiled first, then moved his brown eyes towards Lancel: "What secrets must be told between His Majesty Robert and Duke Jon?"

After fifteen years of oppression, Greene, who has proclaimed himself the guardian of the Crab Claw Peninsula, and Lord Arryn are "incompatible with each other".

Green blinked after speaking, and everyone suddenly thought wrongly.

For a moment, the upright James thought of a lot, as if he was verifying the authenticity of Green's words.

James shook his head, getting rid of the strange thoughts that came out of Green's guidance.

Not to mention everyone.

I have to say that it is politically correct to target Robert and Jon in the Queen's Chamber, because Queen Cersei will be happy.

"This is the first step to solve the rumors. We can discuss the specific rumors. I am just making a metaphor."

OH~The affairs officers are in high spirits.
