The Iron Throne of Ice and Fire

After a moment of silence, Count Matus nodded slightly and said: "I will obey your orders. But..."

He stared at her for a while and continued: "I don't believe those sparrows. If I sense danger outside, please allow me to lead troops to take you out.

Miss Margaery, Queen Cersei's 'carnival' will not last long. The Seven Kingdoms cannot tolerate that kind of woman continuing to control the Iron Throne. "

"Yeah, I know, I just didn't expect her hostility to me to be so deep. I originally wanted to wait until Tommen came of age."

Sighing lightly, Margaery looked at him: "Count Matus, for the sake of the peace of the Seven Kingdoms, Tyrell and the Reach have already taken a step back (Chapter 405), and we can no longer retreat."

"I am very aware of my responsibilities and obligations to the Reach, and I will not take risks easily."

Margery's eyes met for a while, then she raised her right hand and gently placed her palm on Count Matus' thick wrist.

"I am no different from a blind person trapped in the Great Temple. I can promise you now that my safety and the situation in King's Landing will all be left to your judgment when the time comes. I will instruct all the roses in King's Landing Follow your orders."

After a pause, Count Matus nodded slightly: "Thank you for your trust. I will be your shield. Please feel free to do what you want to do."

Margaery's elk-like beautiful eyes were filled with trust in Count Matus. She backed away lightly, and then gave a gentle salute: "Then it's your turn, my dear Count."

"Please allow me to take my leave first."

Under Margaery's soft smile, Count Matus caressed his chest and turned to leave.

Bang!

A golden cup inlaid with gems hit the stone slab, and Cersei Lannister gritted her teeth and said: "How did that dwarf escape to the Great Wall?!"

The maid cautiously picked up the wine glass, and Cobain's expression gently signaled her to leave.

"Tell me, who is it, who is against me?!"

The door closed softly, and Qyburn spoke slowly: "Obviously, your brother had already arranged the rest of the matter when he let Tyrion go in private. If you want to avoid the killer, there is no way There is no safer place than the Night Watch's territory."

Queen Cersei, who was sitting on the chair, rubbed her brows and said, "Pour me some wine."

Qyburn came over, picked up the golden flagon on the table, and after pouring the wine, said: "According to my information, Stannis is also there."

Cersei picked up the wine glass, took a big sip, paused, and said angrily: "They are all traitors, I will definitely make them all disappear."

After a pause, she added: "Qyburn, go find the killer. I will cut the dwarf's throat first."

Qyburn's face was still kind. He bowed slightly and said: "With the heavy reward, you will definitely be able to find someone who is willing to try the Great Wall, but it is also easy for the news to leak. According to tradition, the Night's Watch Legion does not interfere with the Seven Kingdoms disputes, and the Seven Kingdoms do not interfere in the affairs of the Night's Watch."

He smiled slightly: "This may give Stannis an excuse to take the Night's Watch into his own hands."

Cersei said contemptuously: "They are just a group of beggars. What can Stannis do if he can win them over? It is more important to kill the dwarf first."

Qyburn kept a smile on his face and reminded him gently: "The strength of the Night's Watch is indeed insignificant, but we cannot ignore their influence. At least they can affect the entire North. Stannis needs the North very much. support."

Cersei raised her chin slightly: "Does Eddard Stark still dare to join forces with Stannis?"

Hearing this, Qyburn paused slightly, and replied with an unchanging expression: "Although the North is very weak today, the royal family is the first to break the tradition of the Night's Watch... and will send Stannis a gift to win over Stark. Good reason, don’t they like honor the most?”

"A ridiculous honor."

After mocking, Cersei held the wine glass, thought for a while, and suddenly said impatiently: "Qyburn, you think of a way, the dwarf must die."

Qyburn pondered for a moment and said: "Perhaps, you can let someone you trust wear black clothes. Tyrion is just a dwarf. As long as he can get close to him, an ordinary swordsman can kill him easily. At that time...this will be the night watchman's own business."

After hearing this, Cersei's green eyes moved slightly and she paused. Her angry look was quickly replaced by a happy look.

"Good idea, the dwarf is dead."

Cobain smiled humbly and added: "We need to choose someone reliable, at least to ensure that his loyalty will not waver."

Cersei took a sip of summer red, curled her lips and said, "It's very simple."

…………

Not long after Qyburn left, the door was suddenly opened. The Myr woman's figure had not yet appeared, but her giggles came in first.

"What makes you smile so hard?"

Lady Tanya came to the front of Cersei, raised her skirt elegantly, and said: "My queen mother is because of the twins from the Redwyne family. In the past, they often dueled to decide who was the queen. The Earl of the Arbor. Now, they are in the Maiden Garden, but they both want to become the Kingsguard and duel, they are hopelessly in love with Margaery Tyrell, and they both want to stay in the Red Keep to guard the little rose. "

Cersei didn't find it funny at all. She asked, "Margaery likes the Redwynes' freckles?"

Tanya walked over swayingly, poured wine for Cersei, and said: "To be honest, at least I didn't see her preferences. I only know that she allows all men to fall in love with her."

Cersei snorted coldly: "She is indeed a slut. I was not wrong."

Taking a sip of wine with anger, she said coldly: "Why is Margaery looking for you?"

Hearing this, Mrs. Tanya first looked at the closed door cautiously. Then she came to Cersei's chair and lowered herself.

Looking up at Cersei, she whispered: "The eyes you arranged made Margaery very uneasy. She made an appointment with me to the inn by the Blackwater River to avoid your eyes."

In Cersei's contemptuous look, Tanya mocked: "She asked me for your secrets. She wanted to know everything. The first time I saw her showed fear, it was a pity that you were not there at the time. It was simply delightful. ”

"I'll see you soon."

Cersei glanced at Tanya and said, "How did you reply to her?"

Tanya didn't reply immediately. She first put her hand between the huge and full breasts and took out a small bag full of them.

"This is Tyrell's reward."

Tanya opened the small bag, and Cersei saw the gems inside, and snorted: "She seems to be quite satisfied with the information you sent."

There was a charm on Tanya's face: "It went very well, everything was as you expected, the little rose is stupid and cute, my Queen Mother."

A look of triumph appeared on Cersei's face, but she quickly suppressed it. She raised the corners of her lips and said, "It seems she will obediently enter the trap prepared by the lion. Oh, Gods are merciful."

Tanya put her hands on Cersei's legs, and she slowly stood up: "Of course, my Queen Mother, please allow me to praise your incomparable wisdom. Lady Lioness, please allow me..."

The sound of slightly heavy breathing could be heard clearly in her ears, and Cersei reached out and pushed away Tanya's face with her eyes closed.

"I want to entertain the hens of the king, and you will accompany me tonight. I have other things to do, so you go pick out the jewelry first."

After Cersei finished speaking, Tanya, who looked disappointed, immediately became excited: "Oh, this could be a wonderful night. Thank you for giving me the opportunity. I'll go prepare now."

As soon as she opened the door, Tanya saw Osney Kettleblack standing outside the door.

"Oh, good day, Sir Osney."

Osney's eyes glanced at Tanya's curves, and he bowed slightly gracefully and said, "Good day, charming Lady Tanya."

After closing the door, Tanya giggled: "Your tongue is always so sweet... What is this?"

Osney pointed to the door with his chin and said, "I'm here to see Her Majesty the Queen Mother."

Tanya stepped aside and said: "Then go quickly, don't keep His Majesty waiting."

Sir Osney's eyes glanced at Tanya's fullness again, slowly raised the corners of his mouth, and said hoarsely: "Your Majesty the Queen Mother will definitely understand the reason for my slight delay."

Tanya couldn't help laughing. She reached out and patted Osney's chest and said, "What a lovely man. I don't dare to delay Her Majesty Cersei's affairs. Oh, she is taking care of the entire kingdom."

Mrs. Tanya walked away, and Osney's eyes were fixed on her twisting back. It wasn't until her figure disappeared in the corridor... that he raised his hand and knocked on the door with the back of his hand.

"My Queen Mother, you are looking for me."

"Osney."

Cersei looked at Osney standing at the table and smiled softly. Then she left her chair and said, "Would you like some wine?"

She poured two glasses of wine, then came to Osney with the glass in hand and a smile on her lips.

"Sir, your robe is a little old. I would like to change it for you."

Taking the wine glass, Sir Osney asked doubtfully: "New robe? Do you need me to take over my brother's position?"

Cersei took a sip of wine and said, "I have chosen a fief for your brother in the king's territory."

Onis paused and said gratefully: "Thank you again for your generosity, my Queen Mother."

Taking another sip of wine, Cersei asked casually: "Is Ser Osmund still the same?"

Osney spread his hands and said feebly: "He still only likes Lord Qyburn. In most cases, he will refuse visits from me and Osfli (Chapter 422)."

"What a pity."

Cersei held the wine glass in one hand, her burgundy skirt swaying slightly, and walked towards the window.

What's a pity? Ser Osney thought doubtfully while admiring Cersei's graceful back.

Cersei's voice came from the window: "How are you and Margaery? I heard they all like you."

"I can't say I like it."

He also came to the window, touched his aquiline nose, and said helplessly: "Margaery's rose maids prefer to make fun of my nose."

The corners of Cersei's lips slowly raised: "How does that little mare Margaery feel on the bed?"

Hearing this, Sir Osney was startled and said: "Queen Mother, I haven't completed your mission yet, or it seems that she already knows about me..."

Cersei interrupted: "No, you are one of the guests on the Rose Bed."

Osney was stunned for a long time this time. He opened his mouth and said with some disbelief: "You...want me...to frame her directly?"

Cersei turned sideways to face Osney, pursed her lips and smiled, and said: "If you repent to the gods, I will reward you heavily."

She came close to him and whispered in his ear: "I know you are a scoundrel and not a true knight."

Sir Osney took a step back warily and said in shock: "My queen mother, she is the king's fiancée, I will be beheaded."

Cersei's eyes flashed with imperceptible contempt and said: "Don't worry, the king is my son, he will do whatever I ask him to do. What I want is Margaery's head, not yours."

After saying that, the lioness put down the wine glass, approached Osney, stood on her toes, hugged his neck, and kissed him.

After a pause, her lips parted... She reached out and combed Osney's hair, and said softly: "Have you found the courage, Bad Knight?"

Osney was still hesitant, and Cersei endured the impatience in her heart and stretched out her hand.

She stroked it and said: "Only a noble lord is worthy of the Queen Mother's bed. My partner should be a fearless man."

Sir Osney's hesitation disappeared immediately, and his big hand moved boldly.

After a pause, the lioness stepped back and hummed in a low voice, saying in a slightly hoarse voice: "This is enough for now, we can wait for the rest."

Sir Osney looked straight at the lioness and said: "No, not enough, I want you."

Cersei simply adjusted her dress and said, "You want to pass me, sergeant."

Osney's chest rose and fell visibly: "Too little. The risk is very high this time. You should enrich my reward."

"You have served me well and have been rewarded for it."

Cersei picked up the cup again, took a sip of wine, and continued: "And you won't take the risk. After you expose Margaery's crime, I will let you change into black clothes?"

Osney's face suddenly stiffened and he said sharply: "I want to put on black clothes? Is this the new robe you are talking about?"

Cersei pursed her lips and said, "The black robes match your eyes and hair very well, my sergeant."

Osney shouted in frustration: "No one can come back from the Great Wall, Queen Mother, I will miss you to death."

Cersei pursed her lips. She actually wanted to laugh. Osney was indeed very cute sometimes, and he was very good at pleasing women.

She still suppressed her smile. At this time... it could easily be misunderstood as ridicule, and men hated being laughed at, and she still needed him.

Cersei looked at him with her clear blue eyes and lightly opened her red lips: "Don't worry, I will get you back, as long as you kill the dwarfs for me."

Below the River Runner City, on the south bank of the Red Fork River.

Gina Lannister sat down on the wooden chair, looked around, and said: "This Duke really knows how to choose a place. Are we going to discuss how to break into his castle under Trout's nose?"

Davon Lannister looked at the castle in the fog and grinned: "He probably can't see us."

Jaime Lannister leaned against the table and said with a smile: "His table is quite strong."

At this time, someone sang: "Welcome—the Earl of Crab Claw Peninsula—the Duke of the Eagle's Nest—the famous generals of the Seven Kingdoms—the savior of the Riverlands—the defender of the Iron Throne—Green ·Kleb—”

James: "..."
