The Iron Throne of Ice and Fire

Facing Green's sharp gaze, Brynden Tully continued: "In fact, being able to fight until now is much better than I expected... When and how to die is no longer important to me."

He sighed: "According to what you said... it should be said that I have always been cowardly and dare not admit my identity as a rebel. I will not attribute all the mistakes to Hoster."

Take a deep breath, close your eyes for a while and then open them, and then say: "So... Duke Green Crabbe, I am willing to do my part before I die. This is... Tully's atonement for the rebellion that year."

He slowly straightened his chest, and then solemnly touched his chest with his right hand: "Please tell the old knight, what do you want me to do?"

"Family, responsibility, honor."

Green put his hands behind his back: "It seems You foresaw the fate of Stark, or the fate of Catelyn Tully and her children. "

Brynden's knife-like face froze for a moment, his eyes stared at Green for a while, moved his lips, and then said: "I know Ned, he is not a match for people like you."

Green's eyebrows raised slightly: "People like me?"

Brynden's deep eyes were still staring at Green: "People who are good at playing with people's hearts, Ned's sword can win on the battlefield, but it can't deal with the game of power, not to mention..."

His voice was tired: "Famous generals also have a steady supply of rose bread to support them. At least I can't think of how Stark can resist the "sharp blade" you suddenly swing one day."

"Rose bread?"

Brynden avoided Green's sight and looked at the river. If he was not worried about Kate and Kate's family, as a knight, he would immediately stop talking to the power player in front of him.

After a pause, his hoarse voice sounded: "If the Golden Rose and Marigold had not reached some kind of alliance in private, Duke Crab, could you safely manipulate the bloody game of lions and trouts under Riverrun?"

After listening to Brynden's speculation based on limited information, Green did not deny or admit it.

He just looked to the north and said calmly: "In that battle, Duke Ned saved my mother, and I was in her belly at the time. Crab... will never forget it."

After confirming what he really wanted to confirm, Brynden couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, as if the heavy shackles that Green had unknowingly put on him were instantly broken.

However, his relief did not last long.

Green's voice was like a devil's teasing: "But Stark is guilty of treason after all. I can only do my best to save their lives within the laws of the kingdom. I can let all the men of the Stark family wear black clothes, and all the women of the Stark family..."

Green frowned and pondered for a while, then sighed: "Send them to the female branch... I will try to find a female branch with a better reputation... In this way, not only can their lives be saved, but also the fairness of the laws of the kingdom is guaranteed, and the people of the Seven Kingdoms will no longer pay attention to them."

Kate and Kate's daughter are going to become female branch girls? !

Veins popped out on Brynden's forehead: "Is this your never forgetting?! A Tully woman will never tolerate being insulted!"

He gritted his teeth and said: "No one can break through the Cailin Bay, and no one can defeat the Northern Cavalry!"

Hearing Brynden's threat, Green sneered: "The Cailin Bay is not the only passage to the North. There is White Harbor in the east and in the west... I remember that the invasion of the Iron Race has just ended. When I pacify the riverlands, I will invite all the lords of the kingdom to go hunting in the North together to make up for the losses caused by the war, and..."

Looking at the Blackfish who was suppressing his anger, Green's lips showed a villain's arc: "Perhaps a lord in the North is very interested in replacing Stark as the new Lord of the North, such as... Bolton of the Dreadfort?"

Brynden's right hand tightly grasped the hilt of his sword, and veins on the back of his hand protruded like earthworms trembling.

Green glanced at him and said, "What do you think? Knight Blackfish, do you still think you are qualified to negotiate with me?"

The violent ups and downs of Brynden's broad chest gradually slowed down, and then Green's voice came again: "If you don't want to see the scene of Robb Stark repeated in the Stark family, you should listen to my... orders."

After the voice fell, Brynden's hand that was tightly holding the hilt of the sword loosened, and he stood there silently for a long time, and then squeezed out a hoarse voice: "I am at your disposal... "

"Very good."

Green stretched out his hand and held the empty The hilt of Lady Silent's sword: "In the name of the savior of the Riverlands, from this moment on, the Tully family will repent of the crime of joining the rebellion of Hoster Tully, the Duke of Riverrun sixteen years ago. The successor of Riverrun, Brynden Tully, will repent in front of the gods and voluntarily give up the title of Lord of the Riverlands."

His voice rose slightly: "If you accept my conditions, please swear allegiance to me in front of the gods in heaven."

Hearing this, Brynden's pupils first expanded, then suddenly shrank, and he said in disbelief: "Your goal is the Iron Throne?!"

Chou!

Green drew out his sword: "In the future, Crabbe will become the Lord of the Riverlands, and the Tully family will be Crabbe's vassal."

Brynden continued to stare at Green in a daze for a while, and then muttered to himself: "I knew that the war sixteen years ago could not end..."

The Lady of Empty Silence in Green's hand was glowing under the moonlight. Brynden felt that he could no longer stand upright. He had an impulse... and with his little remaining honor, he jumped into the red halberd in front of him. River, sinking directly to the bottom of the river, in the underwater palace, reunited with Tully's family for eternity.

Gods...

Brynden's stoic face couldn't hide the pain.

Robb…………

My little Kate......

He can die calmly because the Tully family still has Kate. His niece is strong and smart. As long as she is still alive, he believes that she will choose the heir of the Tully family from her children and one day restore the Tully family. past honor.

Tully family......

Brynden raised his face that seemed to have aged ten years in an instant, and said slowly: "Duke Greene, another usurper cannot extinguish the fire of hatred. Perhaps your rule will be weaker than Robert I. Although he is Seized the Iron Throne from Targaryen, but his legal succession begins with Targaryen."

"When I restore peace in the Riverlands, I will marry the Princess of Dragonstone who has traveled to the Essos continent in the name of the ruler of Dragonstone, the Vale, the Riverlands, and the Crab Claw Peninsula. The only true Dragon, Daenerys Targaryen.”

The Mad King's daughter? !

Brynden couldn't help showing an expression of disbelief again. Green moved his sword and said again: "Can we start, Duke Brynden?"

………

The Red Fork and Riverrun were witnesses, and after the oath ended, Greene's rule had its first vassal with the title of duke.

From this moment on, Green's sharp blade is officially pointed at the Lannister family.
