The Iron Throne of Ice and Fire
Chapter 53 The Disliked Green
Stannis was silent for a while and said: "Send someone to investigate and let me know what he did in King's Landing."
Davos nodded.
Stannis said again: "Can he serve me?"
Davos' steps paused for a moment, then returned to normal: "Duke Stannis, the young baron may not know you yet."
Stannis glanced at Davos with a sharp gaze: "Don't you understand?"
Davos nodded slightly: "If he knew your noble qualities, Baron Green would definitely turn to you instead of the queen who was born in Lannister. Lannister's wealth can easily blind a young man's eyes. I have to Say you lost your chance."
Stannis snorted coldly: "A golden dragon cannot buy loyalty."
Davos agreed: "Duke Stannis, Baron Greene's political skills and military abilities are both excellent, which is rare. He deserves your patience."

King's Landing, Hook Alley, Green's Study.
Green's plan met his expectations, and not long after, Green successfully resigned to Princess Messiah and returned to the house in Hook Lane.
Green was staring at a large map spread out on the table.
This is a map marking the route from King's Landing to the Kingswood. It also details the location of the inn where the Kingswood hunting party will stay overnight along the way.
The Royal Forest Hunting Team is an event held for the ladies of the royal family. They all ride in carriages, and their endurance has to be taken into account, so the speed of the team cannot be as fast as the marching speed of the army. The total time required for the journey of hunting in the royal forest is five days and four nights.
Green roughly calculated the distance on the map. The four hotels were exactly distributed according to the marching distance of four nights.
The Kingswood Hunt is a royal event held every two years since the Targaryen dynasty.
Green speculated that this route had formed a stable market, and the four hotels where the Kingswood hunting party would be stationed were the product of this market.
Green pinched his chin. There were routines, and the trivial details were all handled by experienced people in charge. His main job was to ensure the safety of the royal forest hunting team. It seemed that his job was not as tiring as he imagined.
Green's slender fingers pointed at the location of Yulin on the map.
After arriving at the destination of the royal forest hunting, the entire team set up camp until the seven-day royal forest hunting event was over.
Green seems to have found a way to use the golden dragon.

As evening approached, Greene, who had finished arranging the chores, had just exhaled when Lancel Lannister, whose cheeks were a little red and swollen, suddenly came over.
"Lancel, what's wrong with your face?"
Lancel was about to laugh, but he gasped with a hiss: "It's Prince Joffrey. I left the Red Castle as soon as the luncheon was over. He sent someone to call me back, saying that he wanted me to Teach swordsmanship."
Green's body leaned back slightly towards the back of the chair, and his tone was doubtful: "Is it my imagination? I see you are in good condition?"
Seeing Green's attendant filling up the wine, Lancel first reached for the wine glass and took a sip, and then said: "Prince Joffrey has summoned me, and I can't refuse. I can't find cousin Tyrion in a short time. I had no choice but to pass by, and the result..."
After pausing for a while with a grimace, Lancel continued: "After meeting Prince Joffrey... If you don't talk about this, I want to forget about it."
Green nodded slightly: "The back is the focus, right? What about the back?"
Lancel's tone became excited and he said, "Fortunately, cousin Cersei showed up in time and happened to meet us."
Green said nothing, but stretched out his hand to signal Lancel to continue speaking.
"Cousin Cersei noticed the injury on my face and made it up to me."
Green showed a puzzled expression at the right time: "Oh?"
"When His Majesty Robert comes back, I will have to serve as the King's attendant. As you know, the Kingswood Hunt is an activity organized by the Queen, and the King will not participate, so I can only miss this Kingswood Hunt.
Cousin Cersei saw that I was injured by Prince Joffrey, and as compensation she has promised to help, so that I can take up the position of the king's squire after returning from the Kingswood Hunt. "
Perhaps due to his personality, Greene has never been able to empathize with Lancel in his enthusiasm for such aristocratic activities.
Before Greene could react, Lancel said excitedly: "What a rare opportunity. Only when hunting in the royal forest can I see all the royal ladies at once!
The golden armor I brought from the Western Region was finally put to use. I had fantasized about meeting a beautiful and elegant lady in the lush royal forest countless times wearing my golden armor. "
Green raised his face and smiled: "I wish your sweet dream a good outcome."
Because of the injury on his face, Lancel didn't dare to laugh, so he could only chuckle, which made his laughter sound very obscene.
……………………
Green asked: "Did you come to me specifically to share your good news?"
Lancel's body leaned forward slightly: "Do you still lack guards here?"
Green's thoughts changed and he understood Lancel's purpose: "Lancel, is your encounter going too fast?"
Lancel smiled sheepishly: "Ah ha, you saw it!"
Green shrugged: "It's not difficult."
With a hint of seriousness in his tone, Green added: "Lancel, regarding your marriage, I think your father must have made arrangements. As your friend, I would like to advise you to pay attention to your standards, protect yourself, and your surname." It’s easy to be taken advantage of by people with bad intentions.”
Lancel's eyes were stunned for a while, and then he said: "Baron Greene, what if I..."
Before Lancel could finish speaking, Green interrupted directly: "I guarantee you will be miserable."
Lancel was at the age when he fantasized about beautiful love, so he still asked a little unwillingly: "How miserable can it be?"
"You don't want to know."
After replying, Green sighed softly, stood up from the chair, approached Lancel, patted the somewhat frustrated Lancel and said, "Lancel, it's also for the sake of the family. Only when your heart is empty can you control your anger." emotion."
If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight.
Although Green was comforting Lancel, he seemed to be telling himself.
Lancel raised his head and looked at Green with his big eyes.
Lancel's occasional actions always made Greene tremble secretly. Greene calmly distanced himself: "Lancel, stop being depressed and think of something pleasant. Maybe the Seven Gods have already arranged it for you." everything."
Tyrion likes to call him "the old man of the seven gods", and Green is not immune to Tyrion's influence.
