The Iron Throne of Ice and Fire

The young butler frowned slightly. He carefully understood Lord Fan's words, scratched his head, and said in an uncertain tone: "It seems... the atmosphere there seems to be very attractive to them?"

Arianne......

Sand Snakes......

Red viper......

Green smiled, pondered for a moment, and said, "Has An Gai become a hostage in their hands?"

"My master, when I was inquiring about information, a woman in her late thirties came to me. She called herself the Sand Snake, Obaya Sand. She told me...Sir Angay was appointed by their princess. Accompany me personally.”

After a pause, Layton continued: "If they have the honor to meet you, they will do their best to compensate you for their unavoidable offense and seek your forgiveness. The Sand Snake also told me that if their recklessness did not cause If you like it, they will treat Sir Ange well to show their apology."

After listening to the young butler's retelling, Green paused and said: "You take the clan soldiers over first, and then say hello to the golden robe patrol over there. When I go over, I will find a reasonable excuse to temporarily block the house. The streets near the women’s branch.”

"As you command, I will make arrangements right away, my master."

After the young butler left in a hurry, Green put the Dornish things aside and turned his attention to the map of the Seven Kingdoms on the wall again.

After thinking for a while, Lord Green pinched his chin. Did the old lion intend to reveal this news to him?

This is Lord Green, who is worried as much as he is glorious, secretly using tricks on his good brother, or...seeing that the riverlands are about to be calmed down, the old lion can't wait to stretch out his claws to Kleb?

Without thinking for too long, Green sat at the table, pulled out a blank piece of parchment, picked up a quill, and dipped it in ink.

Rustle rustle, the quill in his hand waved.

After finishing writing, Green stamped the swamp marigold seal on the blue sealing wax with a bang.

Then, Green called Brienne in and ordered: "Arrange for someone to give it to Sir Mason and ask him to go to Mermaid Harbor immediately."

…………

In the evening, the bright afterglow of the setting sun fell on King's Landing like a veil, as if it had covered the entire city with a gorgeous orange-red coat.

Several figures in gray cloaks quietly walked in from the narrow door at the back of the women's branch. They walked through the narrow corridor and finally stopped in front of a door with exquisite carvings.

There... there was a beautiful woman with olive skin standing with her hands behind her back, looking at the leader with a smile.

Green lifted his hood, took a moment to look at the woman standing in front of the door, and said, "Princess Martell?"

The beauty's bright eyes seemed to contain a hint of tenderness, and her slightly hoarse voice came slowly: "Your eyes are like a torch, Duke Kleb."

Green first took off his cloak with graceful movements, and then handed it to the clan soldiers on the side, saying: "Your Highness, if I were you, I would try to invite Duke Tyrell."

Princess Arianne walked over slowly and gracefully: "He always treats us as evil neighbors."

When she got closer, she gently took Green's right arm and said in a sincere tone: "I know that my invitation was not polite enough. Dear Duke Kleb, please accept my apology."

After saying that, her fullness gently pressed on Green's arm.

Green tilted his head slightly, looked at her for a while, and said: "Although it is the first time, I have fully felt Dorne's passion. Any man under His Majesty's command will be moved."

Her black eyes stared at his brown eyes, and she chuckled: "It seems that my uncle has not let you experience Dorn's enthusiasm."

Hearing this, Green paused for a moment, sighed slightly and said, "I'm very sorry for the misfortune that has happened to Your Excellency the Prince."

Princess Arianne smiled reluctantly and shook her head: "Anger is stronger than tears, stronger than sadness, stronger than dejection."

After a moment of silence, Green sighed again: "Actually...Prime Minister Tywin is trying his best to make up for the misfortune that no one wants to happen."

Although Princess Arianne still had a slight smile on her face, there was a hint of coldness in her voice: "I think all those who are just and kind-hearted only see the arrogance of the lion and the humiliation of Dorne."

Green moved his lips, but didn't know how to speak.

Princess Arianne held Green tighter, as if her fullness was about to pop out at any time.

She stared at Green gently for a while, and then suddenly said: "You know, before my uncle went on a mission, he specifically came to see me in private. He asked me if I had heard of you and if I would like to marry you."

After hearing this, Green was stunned for a moment and said with emotion: "I didn't expect... It's a pity... Maybe His Excellency the Prince and I can become good friends who talk about everything and are like brothers."

He looked at Princess Arianne: "It would be a great honor to be your husband. I am very sorry that I am already engaged."

"Exactly as I expected, the famous generals known to the Seven Kingdoms are indeed as outstanding as the knights described in legends and songs. And..."

Arianne let out a clear laugh: "Mr. Duke, how can marriage hinder that wonderful love?"

She raised her head and whispered in Green's ear with a slightly hoarse voice: "Perhaps, I will be more beautiful than the noble lady in Magta..."

As she spoke, she blew gently, her breath seemed to be filled with endless temptation.

The righteous Green Knight frowned slightly, and he seemed to hesitate for a moment...whether to take his arm directly out of her arms.

After a pause, he said slowly: "Your Highness Martell, please allow me to explain that sometimes rumors are just rumors. In fact... Queen Lannister has always remained loyal to herself, both in her marriage and in herself."

Princess Arianne looked at Greene intently. Her bright eyes seemed to contain blazing flames, and seemed to melt him completely. She pursed her lips and smiled and said: "Of course I believe your words more, Greene. Duke Leib."

One of her eyes blinked: "You can affectionately call me... Arianne."

Green calmed down a little and said: "You are really... charming, Princess Arianne."

"Thank you for your compliment, Duke Green." Princess Arianne looked at him and nodded lightly.

Green smiled slightly, and he made a gesture with his other hand, and then... except Brienne, the other clan soldiers retreated.

"Since we are familiar with each other...then, please tell me frankly why you invited me here, Princess Arianne?" Green stared at the woman in front of him.

Arianne glanced at Brienne, who was always wary of her, and said: "I am accompanying my angry cousins, and I am worried about their safety. After all, this is King's Landing, and the situation is much more complicated. Change."

After a while of silence, Green said softly: "It seems that you love them very much."

"Of course. If another woman climbs into the bed of the man I love, I will fight her, dagger to dagger. Unless she is a 'Sand Snake', in which case I can let her share my man with me. I Love them very much.”

Green's eyes moved slightly. Is this the heir of a great noble? He knew... From the beginning of the meeting, except for the secret testing, she used her honesty to eliminate his dissatisfaction with the presumptuous invitation.

"They're lucky."

"I'll take you in, they are waiting for you."

…………

Pushing open the door and entering, Green saw three women standing around the table, all looking over.

Arianne let go of Green's arm and walked towards them gracefully. Green looked around, personally grabbed the wooden chair near the door, placed it a dozen steps away from the table, and then... very naturally and directly Sitting down; Brienne looked at the chair, straightened her back, and stood quietly behind Green.

He leaned back in his chair, glanced sharply at the people present, and said, "Then, ladies, please state your purpose."

After speaking, he raised a hand lightly, seeing this... Brienne quickly took off the wine bag from her waist and handed it over.

After pulling out the cork, Green raised his head and took a sip of wine and said, "Please."

Seeing that they were all staring at the wine bag in his hand, Green shrugged and said, "You must have heard about the wedding in Riverrun, and..."

His eyes narrowed slightly: "Maybe we are not enemies, but we are definitely not friends. You have the fire of hatred in your hearts. Judging from today's special invitation, your behavior is not rational."

Princess Arianne secretly glared at Green and said, "First, allow me to introduce my sisters to you."

She first pointed at the dark-skinned, ordinary-looking woman with a slightly stronger figure: "She is my cousin, Obaya Sand."

She then pointed to the olive-skinned, slender, elegant and beautiful woman: "She is also my cousin, Nymeria Sand."

Finally, she pointed to the beauty with slightly lighter olive skin, blond hair and blue eyes: "My cousin, Tyene Sand...Prince Oberyn is their father."

After the simple greeting, Green spread his hands and waited calmly for them to answer the questions he had asked earlier.

After a pause, Obaya Sand took a step forward without hesitation, and said with excitement: "It is impossible for my father to be killed by a Lannister dwarf. There must be a conspiracy in this."

Seeing her staring closely at him, Green couldn't help but frown and responded: "Many people doubted this, but some also suspected that he was poisoned by some kind of poison that made him unable to resist. "

"Please forgive me if I have caused any offense."

Tyene Sand gave a shy bow, and then said: "Your Majesty, my father is a poison master known to all seven countries, so...it is almost impossible for others to succeed."

Nymeria Sand flicked her long braided black hair and gritted her teeth: "The Red Keep doesn't even intend to leave us a scapegoat."

Green silently took a sip of wine, glanced at the three "sand snakes", and said: "As one of the chief judges at the time, I also heard the roar of the dwarf during the trial, but... things are already like this, What exactly do you plan to do, or... back to my original question, what do you want from me? And, if I agree to your request, what price do you plan to pay? "

The "Sand Snakes" looked at each other, and then at Arianne, who was staring at Green with interest.

Among them... Obaya said to Green: "We suspect that the real murderer is the 'Kingslayer', and we hope you can support the proposal to capture him."

Nymeria put her arms around Tyene beside her, kissed her gently on the cheek, looked at Green with seductive eyes and said, "The price can be rich, Duke Kleb."

Green ignored the strange "proposal" and said: "Do you have the evidence? I want to remind you, Miss Obaya, the 'Kingslayer' in your mouth... His father is the Prime Minister, and his sister is The Queen Regent, and the King is his nephew."

Princess Arianne said at this time: "Duke Green, Lannister seems to be the true master of the Iron Throne."

Green was silent for a moment and said: "Your Highness Arianne, I have some information to inform you in advance. The Minister of Justice, Kevan Lannister, is about to go to Sunspear City on behalf of the Red Keep. He will meet you with enough sincerity. Father."

Hearing this, Nymeria said angrily: "If it starts with blood, it will end with blood. There is no way the prince will accept Lannister's peace talks!"

Green handed the wine bag to Brienne again and said, "It seems that our seemingly pleasant but actually full of disagreements conversation can end here."

He glanced around casually: "Where is An Gai? I originally thought he would be in this room."

"He is a shy knight, and he cannot refuse my hospitality. He is still tasting wine in the hall, and the lioness and cub of Lys are accompanying him."

Arianne left the table and walked in the direction of Green, saying, "Maybe you can stop for a while and listen to my other suggestions."

Green looked at her, smiled slightly, and said: "Recklessness does not mean bravery. As the heir, it is not wise for you to appear so quietly in King's Landing where conspiracy is floating in the air."

Arianne stopped three steps away from Green. She blinked and said, "Do I need to thank you for your kind reminder?"

Green shook his head slightly and said, "It's not necessary. I just need you not to mistake my good intentions for malice."

As soon as his voice fell, the door was suddenly opened, and Leiden and Ange strode in.

Seeing the lord's gaze moving over, An Gai said quickly: "Lord Green, I have been a native of Crab Claw Peninsula for a long time, and I will always be loyal to you!"

Green smiled gently, while Layton came to the lord's side, leaned over and whispered.

After hearing this, he raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at Arianne, and said, "You four... only brought seven female guards?"

Arianne's eyes flashed with vigilance, and her cousins ​​came to her side one after another. The "Sand Snake" made no secret of its vigilance.

"Duke Green, you are too cautious."

"I just hope that Prince Doran will not refuse my kindness."

With that said, Green slowly stood up from the chair: "I hope you won't refuse my kindness."

…………

The next day, the throne room.

Danglanglanglanglang……

The goblet thrown by Joffrey rolled down the steps under the Iron Throne.

After a pause, Joffrey's entire face was distorted. He gritted his teeth and said, "Margaery actually started deliberately trying to please Tommen?"

He roared to Ser Mandon and Qyburn below: "I am the king!"
