The Iron Throne of Ice and Fire

Cersei pursed her lips, said nothing, and walked the rest of the stairs in silence.

The place where the High Sparrow met Cersei was still the heptagonal room from last time. The faces of the Seven Gods were roughly carved on the stone wall, as if they were staring at the people in the room.

The scrawny, gray-haired High Sparrow sits under the face of the Father (one of the Seven Gods), who is examining Cersei who is brought in by the nuns.

"Your Majesty, it's a pleasure to see you again."

Upon hearing the High Sparrow's greeting, Cersei quickly stepped forward and knelt down to him.

"My Lord Bishop, when I was confused, the kind old woman (one of the Seven Gods) held up a bright lamp and guided me."

Cersei lowered her face in great respect. In her sight was the rough and black bare feet of the High Sparrow, and she secretly gritted her teeth.

I don't know how long it took, but the voice of the High Sparrow came from above: "I feel your willingness to repent."

He stared kindly at Cersei's tangled hair: "The benevolent gods are watching you, Your Majesty."

He turned his eyes to the other side and said again: "Uniya, you will record His Majesty's confession."

Writing her confession? !

Cersei's eyes trembled slightly. She saw Sister Unnia sitting behind a small table nearby, unfolding a piece of parchment, picking up a quill and dipping it in ink.

She raised her head to look at the High Sparrow and said cautiously: "Your Majesty, Archbishop, I pray that my confession will allow me to return to my son..."

Her eyes were full of tears: "...Please forgive a mother who loves her children deeply."

The High Sparrow looked down gently at the tearful Cersei, and said slowly: "The mother will return to her child. Your Majesty, confinement is part of repentance, as is confession. Only by confessing one's crimes can one be forgiven by the gods. "

Her tears had no effect in front of the High Sparrow!

"I will confess my sins and ask the Holy Mother (one of the Seven Gods) to have mercy on me."

She has to get out of here!

Cersei sniffed: "Will my honesty allow me to embrace my child immediately? I'm sorry, Lord Archbishop, I am really worried about my child. For a mother, the child is everything to her."

The High Sparrow nodded slightly and said: "When you can be reunited with your children depends on whether you will confess your crimes, and it also depends on the crimes you committed, Your Majesty."

Damn Osney!

"I understand, thank you for your patience."

Cersei looked at the High Sparrow: "I slept with another man, and I admit that I violated my marriage contract to Robert I."

The High Sparrow stared at Cersei: "Who are those men?"

Sister Unnia's quill made a faint friction sound, and Cersei paused slightly. She was not sure what Osney had revealed...

But she knew that she could not find an excuse for the High Sparrow to continue imprisoning herself at this moment. She had to leave. Only by leaving here could she take revenge!

She blinked her eyelids slightly and choked out: "Lancel Lannister...Osney Kettleblack...Osmond Kettleblack..."

Then she tried to explain herself, her voice filled with sadness: "Your Majesty, Archbishop, please allow me to tell you the difficulties that I have been unable to reveal to others. I am not excusing my crimes.

The gods had taken my husband from me... I was alone and scared, my children and I surrounded by rebels and those plotting against the Iron Throne.

Joffrey was killed, and I was so scared that I didn't know who to trust... so I... tied the men to me in the only way I could. "

The High Sparrow stared at Cersei with his deep eyes: "You mean you used your female part."

"My body..." Cersei covered her face with her hands, her body was shaking, and she seemed to be suffering from great pain.

After a pause, she reluctantly stopped crying and squeezed out her voice from her throat: "For my children and for the stability of the kingdom, I can only do this. Girl (one of the seven gods), please forgive me..." "

Crawling forward on her knees, she approached the High Sparrow and looked up at him with tearful eyes: "Your Highness, I am a helpless woman who has lost her husband. I just want to protect my children. They all treat me roughly. I have never been with them." I have had pleasure there...every time, it has been a painful torture for me."

There was no emotion in the High Sparrow's voice: "Tommen is the king, and it is the duty of the Kingsguard to protect the king."

"But Joffrey is dead, and the current Kingsguard has done nothing. I don't believe they can protect Tommen. I can't imagine losing another son... The seven kingdoms in turmoil cannot bear to lose their king again..." "

Cersei's hands grasped the High Sparrow's knees: "Your Highness, I am indeed guilty, but I did it all for Tommen and the kingdom..."

She could feel the High Sparrow's bones with her hands. Her tears blurred her vision. She begged, "Please forgive me. In order to protect the children, any mother can spread her legs to any man. I am the same as them." I am also a helpless mother..."

At the end of the sentence, Cersei seemed to be sobbing uncontrollably. The High Sparrow was indifferent to this. He stared at her firmly along with the statues of the Seven Gods on the wall.

After a long time, Cersei's tears finally ran dry, and her eyes were red and swollen from crying.

The voice of the High Sparrow came over at this time: "What you are talking about are ordinary crimes. The evil of widows is well known, and all women are debauched and are keen to use their beauty to drive men to achieve their own goals. "

After a pause, he added: "As long as King Robert did not betray your marriage when he was alive, your subsequent actions will not be considered betrayal."

Cersei suppressed the excitement in her heart, calmed down, and said with trembling lips: "I never betrayed Robert when he was alive, never, I can swear it."

Ignoring Cersei's sincere response, the High Sparrow continued: "You have admitted that Osney Kettleblack was your lover, and he has also confessed another, more serious crime of yours. He insists that he acted on your orders. The former Archbishop was murdered."

Cersei shook her head: "No, this is slander! I admit... I did complain privately about the former Archbishop. Many people told me that the Archbishop was weak and corrupt. He was a member of the Church of the Seven Gods. stain.

Osney...perhaps he thinks that his death can please me...If so, I am willing to bear part of the blame...If I had known about his dangerous thoughts in advance, I would have stopped him. Lord Bishop. "

The High Sparrow stared at Cersei for a while, then continued: "Osney also insisted that he fabricated Margaery Tyrell's crimes under your orders."

"No!"

Cersei shook her head again: "Osney is lying again. This is not true. Margaery and I love each other and I regard her as my daughter."
