The Iron Throne of Ice and Fire
Chapter 45 Green begins to take the initiative
Green swore that at first it was just out of professionalism and to cooperate with boss Cersei.
At this time, Green couldn't help but feel secretly in his heart.
Green had to admit that he underestimated the charm of Queen Cersei, who has the top appearance in the Seven Kingdoms.
Although the experience of giving birth to three children has left traces of time on her body, Cersei, with blond curly hair and green eyes, is still slim and fair-skinned.
With strong perseverance, Green suppressed the restlessness in his heart and continued his work.
……………………
Green's eyes drifted, avoiding Queen Cersei's direct gaze.
Inside, Green's thoughts were racing. On the surface, Green's Adam's apple was surging, and he swallowed: "Her Royal Highness, do you have anyone you like to replace the King's Hand?"
Green's answer surprised Cersei, or it would be more appropriate to say pleasantly surprised.
Green really understands me!
Queen Cersei's favorite Hand of the King is of course her father, Tywin Lannister, but she knows King Robert will never agree.
Queen Cersei retracted her hand with satisfaction: "You always make me happy unexpectedly, but you should also know that as long as Robert is still there, Jon's position as an immortal is unshakable."
Cersei found herself speaking as Green quietly distanced himself from her.
Seeing Green pretending to calm down, Cersei raised the corners of her lips.
Green said: "I found out today that Duke Jon is very unhealthy. Even for his health reasons, as the queen, you have every reason to elect a new Prime Minister. With this, we can give Jon The Duke sets up an opponent, even if it cannot push him from the position of Hand of the King, it will at least damage his reputation and create another heavyweight political enemy."
At this point, Green's tone changed and he lowered his voice slightly: "The enemy of your enemy may be your friend. You can just sit back and watch the drama. By then, you will be in control."
After a pause, Green continued: "Your status will be transcendent. Who among them has your support will have the advantage."
Cersei's eyes were full of light, as if she had foreseen how Jon would kneel down and beg her to keep his power.
Queen Cersei's breathing became heavy: "What do you want to do?"
Green has returned to his usual calm tone: "After the hunt in the Kingswood, please allow me to go to the river bend in your name to meet Duke Mace Tyrell of Highgarden."
"Inflatable fish?"
It is indeed a heavyweight!
Although Cersei's tone was contemptuous, Green still captured Cersei's well-hidden fear.
The Inflatable Fish is a nickname given to Lord Mace Tyrell, the leader of the Tyrell clan.
The illustrious Tyrell family rules over the fertile Reach. The family emblem is a golden rose blooming on the verdant green fields. They are second only to the Lannister family in wealth. Not only do they have a powerful land military Strength and maritime military power are not inferior to the royal fleet.
……………………
Green said: "For a fish, King's Landing is its fish tank, and you will eventually master the fish tank of King's Landing."
Green's clever answer made the always confident Queen Cersei very satisfied.
Cersei raised her beautiful chin slightly: "Go ahead and use your talents, Baron Green."
After saying that, Queen Cersei approached Green again.
Green noticed that Queen Cersei's gaze moved below him.
Queen Cersei slightly curved her lips: "Do your job well and make me happy. Your queen will not hesitate to reward you."
Reward? Queen Cersei's choice of words made Grimm think more.
Queen Cersei, who was in an even happier mood, glanced at Greene with her beautiful smiling eyes, turned around and said, "Let's go, little baron, lunch time is almost here."
……………………
Red Keep, Magatar Restaurant.
Queen Cersei sat at the head of the long table.
Sitting on Cersei's right are Joffrey, Myrcella, and Tommen, and on her left are Jaime, Green, Lancel, and Tyrion.
Observing the seating arrangements, it seems that they are arranged according to status and title, but in fact they are arranged according to Queen Cersei's preference.
Just relying on the Lannister surname, Tyrion and Lancel can be ranked in front of the "country noble" Green.
Queen Cersei has the potential to be a dictator.
The maids arranged the dishes in gilded bowls in an orderly manner.
First came the soup of mushrooms and buttered snails, followed by pine nut and egg cakes and oatmeal bread baked with apples and oranges.
After the sweets were served, the meat staples followed, including wild boar ribs, large lamb chops stewed with raisins and onions, grilled fish cakes with parsley, and finally the serving maids placed a portion of butter peas in front of everyone.
……………………
After all the dishes were served, the maids began to pour wine. The wine was Tyrion's favorite summer red.
Green thought that there was a loophole in Queen Cersei's intelligence. If she knew that Tyrion loved to drink summer red, she would definitely switch to other wines based on her personality, or she would specifically switch to the wine for Tyrion alone.
During the meal, Joffrey, who was diagonally across from him, suddenly raised his glass and gestured towards Green.
In fact, Green didn't want to have in-depth contact with this naughty kid at all.
But he is Cersei’s boss’ favorite son!
No matter what he thought in his heart, Green was very decent on the surface and raised his glass in return to Joffrey "The Great".
This situation made Lancel, who was watching from the side, very envious.
Joffrey's eyes that sometimes drifted towards Lancel were obviously malicious. Prince Joffrey didn't love him alone!
Lancel looked forward to the early return of His Majesty Robert, who went hunting, so that he could stay away from Joffrey as soon as possible.
……………………
During the meal, Queen Cersei announced that Green would take over and be responsible for the Kingswood Hunt.
James then told Green that the queen's stewards had made a list as usual in previous years, and asked him to meet the finance minister Petyr before departure to receive the golden dragon used for hunting in the royal forest.
Baron Green was also promoted to the Queen's chief steward.
As Green's job level increases, his salary will also increase. Although time is still tight, Green feels that he can continue to roll.
