The Iron Throne of Ice and Fire

Chapter 383 Backstab 6

"I am the king and my orders are..."

Green glanced at Joffrey, whose face was flushed, with a sarcastic curve at the corner of his mouth, and said: "A king who can only sit on an iron chair and play? If it weren't for your good mother who served me like a maid and begged me , do you think I will come to see you at this time? "

After hearing this, Joffrey was furious. He stood up suddenly, veins popped out on his neck: "I'll kill you!"

Before his hand could touch the sword "Lion's Fang",...with a snap, Green slapped him back to the Iron Throne.

"How dare you hit me?" Joffrey covered his slightly red and swollen cheeks, his face filled with disbelief, mixed with a hint of subtle fear.

His handsome face was extremely distorted with anger: "I am the king!"

King Joffrey sat on the Iron Throne, his chest rising and falling violently, staring bitterly at Duke Green standing in front of him.

Green's tone was slightly contemptuous: "I think you will no longer be the king soon. Not only me, but everyone has seen it. Tonight's prime minister's banquet...it is His Highness Tommen who is attending on behalf of Baratheon. It is said that he is also Tai Prime Minister Wen specially invited.”

Tommen......

The king that the old lion longs for......

The sweet child sitting on the Iron Throne...

The harsh voice of the dwarf suddenly sounded in his mind very clearly. Joffrey's already ferocious eyes were now covered with bloodshot threads as fine as spider webs. He said almost madly: "Tywin is just my appointment." Prime Minister, he has absolutely no power to change the king without permission!”

Green shook his head slightly in disappointment and sighed softly: "Joffrey, if Duke Tywin was just the Prime Minister, how could you be imprisoned here by him? I didn't expect... At this time, you still haven't recognized him. To clarify the reality, tell you that Robb Stark is dead, and no one in the Seven Kingdoms dares to challenge the majesty of Duke Tywin. He has now become the true ruler of the Seven Kingdoms, a man without a robe. A true king with a crown.”

Waiting for the situation in the seven countries to stabilize...

The old lion will definitely depose you......

He knows that you don’t want to be a well-behaved and obedient scarecrow...

Joffrey's original expression of extreme anger gradually began to be replaced by panic. His eyes showed a trace of confusion. After a pause, he suddenly said: "Mom! My mother will never agree to what he does!"

Hearing this, the look of disappointment on Green's face became even deeper, with a hint of helplessness and sadness in his voice: "What do you think she can do? Or... what else can she do for you now? Do you want to Your mother drew a sword against her father? Don't you think... this is ridiculous?"

If you threaten her with the secret of your bloodline...

Besides being obedient...what else can your mother do for you...

Joffrey's twist again: "Idiots, they're all a bunch of idiots! They're all damn idiots!"

After a period of suppressed silence, an impatient look appeared on Green's face, and he said in a slightly harsh tone: "King Joffrey, I have interviewed you as requested, so please allow me to take my leave."

"Stop!" Just as Green slowly walked down the steps, Joffrey suddenly shouted, his voice echoing in the empty hall.

Greene seemed not to have heard and continued walking down a few steps. Joffrey couldn't help but said unhurriedly: "My mother asked you to come to me!"

After hearing this, Green finally stopped. This situation made Joffrey feel deeply ashamed and angry.

"well………"

After a pause, Green slowly turned around, looked at Joffrey calmly, and said slowly: "You should not embarrass Queen Cersei, she loves you, she is just helpless."

Joffrey's hands tightly grasped the cold sword handles on both sides of the Iron Throne, and the veins on his hands were slightly bulging. He gritted his teeth and said: "Duke Green, but you can deal with Tywin, right? "

Step - step - step -

Green walked up the steps again and said, "Are you still expecting to be a mouse king hiding in the gutter?"

Standing firmly in front of the Iron Throne, he looked at Joffrey, whose back was pressed against the back of the chair and staring at him fiercely, and then said: "You don't even dare to resist the old lion yourself... You You are so cowardly that I will not risk the fate of the entire Kleb family for you, because you are destined to back down and even betray my loyalty.”

Joffrey's anger at this moment momentarily suppressed his fear of Green, and he shouted hysterically: "I will execute the traitor with my own hands! Whether it's Tywin or you!"

The two looked at each other for a while, and finally Green seemed to sigh unbearably: "Joffrey, when the time comes...as long as you sincerely surrender to Prime Minister Tywin, I will support you to become the Duke of Storm's End, for your sake For mother's sake, I will at least let him keep your life."

Joffrey's fierce eyes were burning with rage, as if he wanted to swallow everything up, but there was a hint of fear deep in his eyes: "He dares to kill the king?"

Green hesitated slightly and said, "Only if you don't obey his arrangements."

He picked up the jug and wine glass next to the iron chair, poured a glass of wine, handed the wine glass over, and said at the same time: "This thing may make you temporarily forget some unpleasant things, or it may help you find a trace of something." courage."

"I have no fear, I am the king!"

Clanging, red wine spilled on the stone slab under the Iron Throne, and the golden wine glass rolled down the stairs.

Joffrey stared straight at Green, breathing heavily, and said: "If you kill Tywin, I promise to replace him and become my new Prime Minister."

After a moment of silence, Green shook his head slightly and said, "I don't want your mother to hate me. I love her, but unfortunately, she only loves you, King Joffrey."

He looked around and then said: "In a few days, I will leave King's Landing and set off for Dragonstone. The Duke of Mace is preparing to go to Storm's End, and... Earl Kevan will be here soon. Envoy to Dorne on behalf of the Red Keep."

His eyes turned to Joffrey: "At that time, you and Duke Tywin are the only ones left in the Red Keep. I hope you will be more careful, and it is best to report illness...so that you can at least gain temporary safety."

After being silent for a while, Joffrey's green eyes suddenly turned and asked, "Where is Lancel?"

Green looked at Joffrey doubtfully and replied: "I heard that he is usually either in the Red Keep Cathedral or the Great Cathedral of Baelor. He is very pious."

Seeing that Joffrey fell silent again, Green waited for a while and said: "If you have no other instructions..."

Joffrey's hands trembled slightly and he looked over: "Duke Green, as long as you kill him."

After taking a moment to calm down a little, he gritted his teeth and said word by word: "I can reward you with anything you want, no matter who it is."

Green sighed helplessly and said solemnly: "King Joffrey, please allow me to repeat it again. I am not you. No matter what excessive things you do, Queen Cersei will choose to forgive you and still love you deeply." You. But I am different. If I did that, she would definitely resent me."

Joffrey's eyes flashed with resentment, and he said loudly: "The person you should be loyal to is the king, me, the king!"

Hearing this, Green coughed lightly and said, "Please allow me to remind you that the tradition of the Kleb family has always been to serve the queen."

"You! You, you, you!" Joffrey wanted to say that her mother was now the Queen Mother and no longer the Queen of the Seven Kings, but he also knew in his heart that this kind of quarrel would not make the person in front of him change his mind... It is known throughout the Seven Kingdoms that Grimm Kleb's only loyalty is to Cersei Lannister.

When he saw Green stretching out his hand, Joffrey couldn't help but tremble slightly: "You want to..."

Before he finished speaking, Green patted Joffrey on the shoulder and said in a gentle tone: "This is actually a good thing. When one day you defeat the old lion, at least for your mother's sake, I will definitely do my best to help you. Sit tight on the Iron Throne."

Withdrawing his hand, he then shrugged and said, "Although it's almost impossible to achieve, it's better than having no hope at all, isn't it?"

After speaking, Green nodded slightly, turned around, and walked down the stairs.

Joffrey stood up and said bitterly to Green's back: "These are all excuses. All of you are afraid of Tywin. You are all traitors, unforgivable traitors!"

The more he spoke, the more angry he became: "I will never admit defeat, I am the king!"

After a pause, Green turned his head to look at Joffrey, with a look of shock in his eyes. After a pause, he bowed deeply: "Please forgive me for my previous offense. If I hadn't met Lord Tywin... You may become the greatest king of all time, salute you.”

After saying that, he let out a long sigh, flicked his blue cloak, and walked away quickly.

Ten minutes later, the Kingsguard and Ser Mandon came to the steps of the Iron Throne and reported: "Your Majesty, Lord Greene asked me to convey a message to you before leaving."

There was a click, and the arrow was loaded. Joffrey aimed his crossbow at the lion flag and said impatiently: "What did he say?"

Ser Mandon paused for a moment and said, "He said... Queen Cersei never serves anyone else."

After listening, for some reason... Joffrey's anger suddenly rose again.

"Get out!"

After a pause, Joffrey stopped Sir Mandon who was about to leave: "Come back!"

He asked Sir Mandon to come to him, and then whispered: "Please help me find out when Kevan will go to Dorne as envoy."

…………

Green was taken to the Queen Mother's bathroom by Mageta's maid Mira, and he sat directly next to the golden bathtub.

Cersei Lannister was lying lazily in the steaming bathtub, taking a nap. When she heard the movement, she slowly opened her eyes and said in a hoarse voice: "How are you, dear Green?"

Green's expression was calm, because he had seen this scene many times...with James (Chapter 89).

Lord Grimm has been working hard to adapt to this world.

"I think we can leave Qyburn at his disposal in the throne room. King Joffrey will use him when the need arises."

The hot water gave Cersei a blush on her cheeks: "Joffrey hasn't been in a good mood lately..."

She recalled the day when she happily shared the joy of the death of the little running wolf with Joffrey. At first, Joffrey was also very happy, but...then for some reason, Joffrey's expression suddenly changed. She got angry without warning, and the shock and confusion that the sudden situation made her feel made her feel deeply sad.

Although she couldn't guess the specific reason, the lioness suspected that the cunning little rose was stirring up something in the middle.

Green comforted him, "He knows that you love your son deeply, and he also loves his mother deeply, and he is growing into a good king."

With the sound of water, Cersei's graceful body moved in the bathtub. She leaned her head on Green's arm, her eyes a little blurred: "Joffrey is a natural king..."

She stretched out her white hand and hugged Green's arm, whispering: "But some people always try to destroy the deep relationship between us mother and son."

"Some people?"

Green raised his eyebrows slightly: "Are you referring to Miss Margaery?"

Cersei nodded gently, paused, her voice was slightly cold: "I have I can't stand my son being deceived by the little rose any more after enduring until the little wolf dies. "

Green stared at Cersei's gem-like green eyes for a while, rubbed his head, and sighed with a solemn look on his face: "You must at least choose a new queen. This is very important."

After a pause, he rubbed his head again and said: "Before properly arranging the plan, you'd better let Joffrey stay quietly for a while. I think... he may not listen to the kind advice from his mother in recent times."

The loyal Duke of Marigold almost responded with a clear answer, which made the lioness very happy. His decisiveness made up for her sense of loss that Jaime left without saying goodbye and did not even leave a letter.

Cersei's fingers gently touched the cold golden robe and chain mail on Green's body, and her brows could not help but frowned slightly, but her voice was pleasant and gentle: "I will choose a suitable wife for Joffrey as soon as possible."

Her eyes moved slightly, revealing a hint of smile: "Dear Green, do you have anyone you want to recommend?"

After a moment of hesitation, Green spread his hands, his expression was a little helpless and sighing: "If this matter is handed over to me, I will probably use your wisdom and beauty as a reference to find it. Unfortunately, there is only one Cersei Lannister in this world."

His brown eyes turned to Cersei: "So, this matter can only trouble the king's mother with a sharp eye."

Cersei looked up at Green, raised her chin, and raised the corners of her lips happily, saying: "I love your tongue so much, dear."

The lioness's green eyes gently swept across the black chain mail on Green's body, and her voice seemed to carry some gentle hints: "You always make me happy, how can I reward you, golden robe?"
