The Iron Throne of Ice and Fire

Chapter 44 Your Queen is Angry

The Red Keep, Maeght's Tower Gardens.

Queen Cersei, dressed in a rich dress, sat upright with a smile on her face, looking tenderly at Princess Myrcella who was playing with Prince Tommen.

Prince Joffrey sat next to Queen Cersei, with a hint of impatience on his face.

Not far away, James in white robes and silver armor stood holding a sword.

Lancel and Jaime stood together, tremblingly dodging Joffrey's glances from time to time.

The figures of Green and Tyrion appeared in the garden, approaching Jaime and Lancel.

Green stood next to Jaime, and Tyrion pulled the embarrassed Lancel to the other side with a smile.

James glanced at Cersei not far away and lowered his voice unconsciously: "Little Baron, what did the old Duke say?"

Unknowingly, James' title of Greene was upgraded from little savage to little baron.

Green replied: "He used the conditions of the Governor's Crab Claw Peninsula to get me..."

Green did not deliberately hide anything and told James what happened, especially the discovery of the mezzanine in the Prime Minister's study.

James' tone was sarcastic: "The King's Hand's study is ventilated everywhere, but the old Duke didn't notice it at all."

Green nodded in agreement.

After James and Green finished talking, the atmosphere was a bit awkward. Although the two of them were familiar with each other a lot, maybe they were really incompatible. Apart from official matters, they had little in common.

In order to break the awkward atmosphere, Green looked at the children playing in the distance.

Compliment his little cotton-padded jacket, right?

Green was at a loss for words and decided to start a conversation: "Princess Myrcella is very cute."

James did not take up Green's words, but gave Green a cold side glance.

At this moment, the keen Green seemed to have caught something.

Tyrion, who was standing on the other side of James at some point, saw the whole process in his eyes.

Tyrion's eyes rolled, his face expressionless, but secretly laughing.

Before Green could think about it, Queen Cersei's maid came over and said, "Good day, Baron Green, Her Royal Highness the Queen, please come over."

Green and James looked at each other and followed the maid's footsteps.

……………………

Queen Cersei nodded slightly towards Green who was greeting him, and said: "Baron Green, this is my eldest son, Joffrey Baratheon, the heir to the Iron Throne."

Joffrey tilted his chin slightly and raised the corners of his lips, exactly like Queen Cersei.

Like me, no wonder Cersei loves Joffrey the most!

Green stroked his chest and saluted: "Good day, Your Highness."

Joffrey was pleased with Grimm's title.

The crybaby brother is called Prince Tommen, and he is also called Prince Joffrey. This similar title has always made Joffrey very dissatisfied.

He is the only heir to the Iron Throne, and the only one who can represent the prince is Joffrey.

Green's title was just what Joffrey had in mind.

Joffrey's mood suddenly became very good: "Good day, Baron, I have heard of you and I admire your bravery."

Queen Cersei was a little surprised. It was rare for the arrogant Joffrey to show kindness to someone he met for the first time.

Cersei secretly nodded with satisfaction. He is indeed my son. He can tell the value of a person at a glance, like me!

In a happy mood, Cersei called Myrcella and Tommen again.

"Good day, Your Highness Tommen."

"Good day, Princess Myrcella."

Green was busy saluting the children.

Green's name for Tommen made Joffrey feel better: "Mother, I want to reward Baron Green."

As soon as Green's ears moved, his waist suddenly stopped feeling sore.

A capable person will only be more loyal if he is constantly rewarded. Joffrey has understood this truth. Cersei is pleased that Joffrey is indeed like me!

Cersei looked gentle and said dotingly to Joffrey: "Okay, I understand, my prince, I will take care of it for you."

"Tommen, Myrcella, wipe your sweat and take a rest."

After saying that, Queen Cersei asked the maid to take care of her, raised a hand and said to Green: "Baron Green, come with me for a walk."

Green's heart was spinning, he approached Queen Cersei, gently took Cersei's slender forearms, and helped Cersei stand up.

In the distance, Jaime and Tyrion looked at each other as they watched Cersei and Green walking into the garden.

Tyrion grinned and said, "Brother, your plan didn't work on my sister."

James was embarrassed and helpless.

Tyrion patted James' thigh and comforted him: "James, don't worry, the matter is not as serious as we worried. Now it seems that I am not angry. This is a good sign. You have not failed."

……………………

Green walked with Cersei in the gardens. The garden of Maegor's Tower was lined with green trees and fragrant birds.

Queen Cersei stopped, stared at the sea of ​​flowers, and said in a cold tone: "Baron Green, when are you going to tell me what the old immortal is looking for you?"

As expected, there are no secrets in the Red Keep. James cannot be trusted with this kind of thing. He is only suitable for killing people!

Green's brown eyes moved slightly: "The old man tricked me into going to the other side of the strait to kill the two young Targaryen dragons."

Queen Cersei sneered and said in a contemptuous tone: "What a coward."

Cersei's beautiful eyes glanced in Green's direction and asked: "Inducement?"

Green said with a sarcastic tone: "After we have done this, I promise to make me the governor of the Crab Claw Peninsula and canonize me as the guardian of the Crab Claw Peninsula."

"You don't seem happy?"

Green nodded: "Your Highness, I have heard that the Red Castle has been sending killers to hunt down the young dragons for more than ten years. What has not been successfully accomplished for more than ten years is now handed over to me. The old man's purpose is not pure. "

"What do you think the purpose of immortality is?"

After a pause, Green said: "He wants to push me away from His Highness. He may think that my sword is too sharp in your hand."

Cersei turned around and met Green's eyes. She slightly raised her graceful chin and slightly curved her lips: "It's as I thought, Baron Green. You are about the same age as Joffrey. I am very optimistic about you." your future."

Green's tone was filled with excitement: "Her Royal Highness, your kindness will never be forgotten by the Kleb family."

Cersei walked slowly to Green. Because the two were so close, Green could already feel Queen Cersei's breathing.

Queen Cersei looked at Greene with very gentle eyes, raised her arm, and touched Greene's cheek with her showy hand: "What a good child..."

Cersei helped Greene gently adjust Greene's collar.

Under Queen Cersei's movements, she noticed that Green's Adam's apple was rolling up and down, and his chest was rising and falling with faint pressure.

Queen Cersei raised the corners of her lips.

Queen Cersei's delicate hand stroked Green's cheek again: "The old immortal dared to cross me and command my best steward. He never took me seriously. Your queen is very angry. We must do something. Otherwise your queen will not be able to swallow this breath."
