The Iron Throne of Ice and Fire
Chapter 301 Old Rose and Little Rose
The sun sheds dazzling light through the dense leaves. Margery looked away, her beautiful eyes a little blurred, and her long and white fingers slowly rubbed the body of the tea cup, as if she was thinking about something.
Mrs. Olenna put down the teacup and said, "My Margery, do you have any doubts?"
Brown eyes moved slightly, Margery looked at her grandmother, smiled and shook her head slightly.
Mrs. Olenna had a kind face. She reached out and grabbed Little Rose's hand and said, "Margery, do you know what your biggest weakness is?"
She sighed: "Maybe it can't be called a weakness..."
"grandmother……"
Wrinkles filled the corners of Mrs. Olenna's eyes, and her still juéshuò eyes carefully looked at her beloved granddaughter.
After a pause, Mrs. Olenna raised her hand and stroked Margaery's cheek, and said slowly: "Dear Margaery, my granddaughter, don't always worry that you will make mistakes or not do well. You are very good. You value the glory of your family, but I want to tell you, don’t think that the Tyrell family is your sole responsibility. You also have close family members..."
After patting, Lady Olenna let go of Margaery's hand. She leaned back on the chair and pondered for a moment, then said: "Although Villas (the eldest son of the Duke of Metz) is lame in one leg, he has The wisdom of the ruler, he is an excellent successor, he is many times better than my stupid son."
When she mentioned her son, she suddenly said angrily: "The Boar Duke is not worthy of outstanding words. I guess he is being fooled around by Tywin in King's Landing right now! Gods are merciful, and the old woman will have to wipe my stupid son's ass for the rest of her life."
Her tone softened: "What comforts me is that my grandson and granddaughter have finally grown up, and they have not inherited the stupidity of the Wild Boar Duke..."
"Grandma~"
Enough scolding for now, I'm a little thirsty... Mrs. Olenna picked up the tea cup and took a sip, and said: "I will continue..."
She put down the teacup: "Garland is a strong child. He lost his right arm, but he is still the brave Garland. He will always be the sword of the Golden Rose."
She looked at her granddaughter: "Margery, Garland is your sharp sword. My stupid son finally did a good deed. When Garland breaks through the Florentine family's Liangshui City (Chapter 251), he will As the Earl of Brightwater City, I became your guard captain and Queen Margaery's guard captain."
After a pause, she added: "As for your father, when Garland enters the Red Castle, I will take him away. The Duke of Metz is not only stupid, but also too greedy. I cannot give him to my granddaughter, the Queen of the Seven Kingdoms." Leave the big trouble behind. It doesn’t matter if our Duke of Mace wants to attack Storm’s End, which he has been thinking about for more than ten years... As long as he doesn’t stay in the Red Keep, I won’t care about him, and he can do whatever he wants.”
"Grandma." The corners of Margaery's eyes were slightly red.
Mrs. Olenna smiled kindly and said: "Every member of the Golden Rose has his own responsibilities and obligations. My Margaery, you have only one task now, to be the queen of the Seven Kingdoms. Other things , leave it to others, do you understand, my granddaughter?”
The breeze blew by, and Margaery's brown curly hair swayed gently. She turned her little face to the other side, and tapped a few crystals in the corners of her eyes with the back of her hand.
After a pause, Margaery looked at Mrs. Olenna again, her voice slightly choked: "Grandma, thank you for everything you have done for me."
Mrs. Olenna rubbed Margaery's hair and said kindly: "Let me hear your previous doubts, my granddaughter."
Margaery nodded slightly and said, "Grandma, I want to know...why Edmure Tully."
Lady Olenna's hands had loose skin and were covered with wrinkles. She tapped her fingers on the armrests of the chair and said, "Such a rare opportunity. Are you curious why Tywin's son was not chosen?"
She seemed to be sighing: "Loras...the Knight of Flowers known to all the Seven Kingdoms...such a beautiful child...he is only sixteen years old..."
As her tone changed, Lady Olenna's hands were trembling: "When I think of Loras who died tragically in the tourney, and Garland who lost an arm to avenge Loras, my heart is filled with anger. .”
"Alas..." Mrs. Olenna's sigh was filled with deep helplessness.
After a pause, she continued: "Emotionally, as Loras's grandmother, I just want to kill the little lion in Riverrun and avenge my grandson. But I am not just Loras. Grandmother, Willas, Garland, and you...Margaery, I am still your grandmother. While I am still alive, before I fall into the arms of the stranger, I will leave a more powerful golden rose for you, This is your great grandmother."
"grandmother……"
Lady Olenna sighed again: "Tywin's son is very lucky. I had some expectations... In anger, someone would kill Tywin's son on the spot, at least one. Obviously, the little lion is not stupid, he should To say they were very clever, I think they were able to escape Riverrun in time because they were prepared for unexpected events in advance. Therefore, the chaos in Riverrun actually gave them a good opportunity to escape."
She knocked on the armrest: "Riverrun lost its original heir. He died in the wedding banquet in the presence of Lannister. There is no possibility of peace talks between Stark and Lannister. That little kid who likes to play king's games Wolf Cub, even for the support of the Riverlands lords, he must be the sworn enemy of the Lannister."
She paused with her fingers: "The little wolf cub that swept across the Western Realm and is filled with the fire of hatred is a good opponent I specially left for Tywin. He will continue to consume the Lannister's strength... and the Lannister is getting weaker and weaker. We can only rely more on the support of the Golden Rose family, including King Joffrey.”
"To borrow the words of the little fox (Chapter 121)...the rose of King's Landing will never wither."
"This is the golden rose that the old woman wants to leave you to inherit. This is also the last lesson the old woman teaches you (Chapter 269)."
"My Margaery, wear the tiara of Queen of the Seven Kingdoms."

Seven days later, Maidenpool.
Tyrion looked at Bronn, who had put on the red robe of the Lannister family, and said in an exaggerated tone: "Are you planning to betray again? Oh... my captain of the guard?"
Bronn spread his hands and said: "Master Tyrion, it was because there were no other clothes to change. Please believe me... I will always be yours."
Tyrion first patted his chest, and then warned: "That blue robe, Green wants to take 50 gold dragons from me, you have to treat it kindly."
Bronn pinched his chin and said, "Sir, is it possible that it is five silver deer?"
Tyrion's expression froze, he paused, and he groaned in pain: "No wonder Green smiled so happily... He deceived the Lion's feelings..."
Bronn's smile was still obscene, but it was obvious that he was also happy.
Tyrion's eyes were suspicious, and Bronn quickly expressed his loyalty again: "My lord, I have absolutely no intention of taking refuge in Crabb, not at all. Although Earl Crabb was generous enough to his soldiers, the laws he formulated The law is too strict. During the war, not only can you not drink alcohol, but you cannot also find beautiful women, and you have not received orders..."
He railed against Kleb's strict laws for a while, then finally said, "I'd go crazy there."
Bronn's smile was very flattering: "Honorable Lord Tyrion, loyal Bronn will always follow you."
While he was talking about loyalty, Bronn's eyes were fixed on the purse on Tyrion's waist.
Tyrion habitually took off his money bag, but he paused and suddenly said: "Why do you know so much about Krab's military regulations, Bronn, who is extremely loyal?"
Bronn's face froze for a moment, and he showed a flattering smile: "Sir, as your guard captain, I want to know as much as possible about the people around you. This is my responsibility."
Tyrion threw away the money bag in his hand and grinned: "I believe in your loyalty more and more, mercenary."
Seeing that Bronn was about to leave after taking the money, Tyrion asked doubtfully: "You seem to be in a hurry?"
Bronn paused, with a lewd smile on his face: "My lord, I have found a good place. My new love is waiting for me, and she can't wait."
"I think you're talking about yourself."
Tyrion coughed slightly and clasped his hands behind his back. He seemed to be planning to follow: "Bronn, I'm worried that you won't have enough money. Lannister can solve this problem. Let's go together."
"OK……"
As he said that, Bronn patted his head and said, "I'm very sorry, sir, Count Kleb has just sent someone to invite you over."
Tyrion looked at the apologetic Bronn and said, "Really?"
Bronn bowed gracefully and deeply: "My lord, it is a serious crime to deceive you. I am very timid."
Tyrion waved his hand boredly and said, "Go ahead. The streets are full of blue robes patrolling. Just ask Pod to follow me."
…………
Sir James was soaking in the stone bath that was filled with spring water. On the steps not far away, Green was using oiled leather to wipe the gleaming blade of Lady Kongji's sword.
Sir James was bored. He leaned against the edge of the bath, turned his head, looked at it for a while, and said, "Is that... the Valyrian steel sword?"
Green nodded and said, "It's called Lady Kongji, and it's one of the trophies of the valley."
Upon hearing Green's confirmation, Sir Jaime's eyes changed. He seemed to be staring at Cersei... staring at the empty lady in Green's hands.
"..." James acted too fake. As his injuries gradually recovered, and recalling his impulsive words a few days ago, he felt sorry for Green in his heart. James has an arrogant character, and he has always been talking to Green recently. This is his way of expressing his apology.
"Don't kiss it." Green threw Lady Silence towards Ser Jaime.
James raised one hand and grabbed the handle of the sword with a snap.
Raising his sword, looking up and down, James flicked Ms. Kongji's sword blade with his finger. Although it was an act, Sir James had to admit that this was really a good sword, the sword that every knight dreams of.
In the cold light, Ser Jaime remembered the scene when Lord Eddard used ice to kill pieces of meat everywhere in the throne room (Chapter 162). Um? Hearing that ice had become Lord Green's trophy during a riot in King's Landing... James actually felt a little jealous.
After a while, Green walked down the steps, squatted down and looked at the dent in James's forearm, which was half the size of a palm, and said, "It's healing well, Sir."
James shook his left arm, smiled brightly, and said, "Qyburn's medical skills are great."
He handed Ms. Kongji towards Green and said, "It's also great."
Green smiled, sheathed his sword, and said, "Win a few more battles, and maybe you can get one too."
Sir James, who was a prisoner a few days ago: "..."
At this time, Tyrion's voice came over: "Hey, did I disturb the two of you?"
Limping to the side, Tyrion looked at the water in the bath and said, "Is this the legendary... spring water with magical healing power?"
Then, Tyrion turned his head and glanced at Green and Jaime several times.
One was wearing clothes and the other was not wearing clothes. Tyrion laughed playfully: "Brother Jaime, your figure... I don't make judgments. I just want to say that I didn't expect you to be so proactive."
Neither Green nor Jaime was amused, and they both stared at Tyrion expressionlessly.
He laughed uninterestedly, and Tyrion coughed slightly awkwardly and said, "Green, are you looking for me?"
Green said disgustedly: "Tyrion, when we entered the city yesterday, you told me several times that you should see the magical spring water in Maiden Spring as soon as possible."
"Yep."
Tyrion crossed his arms, squatted down, stared at Jaime's arms, and asked: "How is it? How does it feel?"
Sir Jaime shrugged: "Obviously, nothing feels..."
After a pause, he said angrily: "Tyrion, Green, stay away from me. I am not a decoration for others to admire."
Tyrion laughed. He first patted James on the shoulder, and then turned to his little squire and said, "Pod, go and call Qyburn."
He looked at Green and said, "Maybe doctors can discover things that our eyes can't."
"Good idea, Tyrion."
The room where Cobain was located was not far from the bath. Not long after, Podrick appeared with Cobain.
Green glanced at the human body researcher. Cobain greeted him and he just nodded.
Tyrion said: "Qyburn, look at the spring water here."
Cobain put one hand into the water, observed it carefully for a while, and said, "It seems a little different than our common water..."
He left the pool with his hand, shook it, and said, "Although the spring water here is not as magical as rumored, it may also help heal wounds."
He pointed to his eyes: "Human eyes cannot actually see all objects in the world. I need to experiment for a while before I can find the correct answer for adults."
Green raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Mr. Coburn, how long do you need? We will leave Maiden Spring in a week at most."
Qyburn's face was gentle. He bowed and said, "There is enough time, Count Kleb."
After Qyburn left, Tyrion complained to Green: "Green, I don't want to see my kind father and gentle sister too soon. Good-hearted Green, maybe we can stay a little longer."
Green comforted: "Tyrion, keeping the sword hanging above your head will make you more painful. It is better to let it fall as soon as possible."
