The Iron Throne of Ice and Fire

Chapter 60 The Highgarden Messenger Who Shouldn't Appear

Duke Jon suddenly asked: "Did the Kingswood Hunt be held on time?"

This is the second time. Duke Jon asked the same question yesterday.

Petyr lowered his head slightly, the sarcasm on his lips disappeared in a flash: "Yes, they have all set off, and the noble ladies of the royal family are also here as scheduled. You can rest assured."

Duke Jon nodded slightly: "Petyr, you have to remember, don't underestimate this kind of activity, it will cover people's hearts unconsciously."

Petyr stroked his chest and nodded, his voice very respectful: "Thank you, sir, for your teaching. I will keep it in my heart."

"queen……"

Petyr noticed that Duke Jon, who was about to speak, seemed to be lost in thought and stood quietly aside.

……………………

After a while, Duke Jon said: "I have been dealing with government affairs for many years and have met all kinds of people. The thought of the little Baron named Green always makes me uneasy. It's ridiculous. He is just a young man. I don't think so." Understand why you feel this way.”

Petyr's eyes moved and he comforted, "You may be too tired. Anyone else would not be in a good state when they are tired."

Duke Jon ignored Petyr's comfort and continued: "Queen Cersei's willfulness is unpredictable. People with this kind of character must never let her hold a sharp sword in her hands. She will eventually do something amazing. You must trust an old man judgment, my honor does not allow me to slander Her Royal Highness the Queen."

Duke Jon raised his slightly trembling hand, and Petyr quickly stepped forward to hold it with both hands.

"The people of Crab Claw Peninsula are a group of beasts in human skin, a bloodthirsty sword."

Duke Jon was a very pragmatic person and would not exaggerate things. After hearing this, Petyr suddenly felt cold where he had been cut by Green.

"Petyr, we have to find a way to get this bloodthirsty sword out of the queen's hands."

Petyr naturally knew the meaning of Duke Jon's words, which was to ask him to take action against Baron Green, or at least drive Baron Green out of King's Landing.

Petyr had a headache. He actually didn't want to contact Baron Green again in a short time.

After this period of repeated thinking, Petyr gained a further understanding of the Game of Thrones.

Military nobles like Baron Green will abide by the rules of the game when it is beneficial to him, but when they are in an unfavorable situation, they will not abide by the rules of the game and will choose to use the most primitive violence.

After realizing this, Petyr felt confused.

……………………

Although Petyr thought a lot in a moment, his face showed nothing: "Your Majesty, your method is actually very good. Baron Pelgrim killed the Targaryen dragon, which is justifiable."

Petyr is the confidant promoted by Duke Jon, and he knows many things about Duke Jon very well.

Petyr raised the corners of his lips and patted the back of Duke Jon's hand: "You have given him a month. If he refuses, he will not be able to stay in King's Landing because His Majesty Robert will not..." "

Petyr's eyes showed reverence: "Baron Green will leave King's Landing if he accepts, but the Targaryen dragons are on the other side of the strait. You are a skilled chess player. In fact, you have already completed the layout. You just need to wait for the good news. .”

……………………

In the royal forest, under the blue sky, the branches of the trees are intertwined.

There was no rain all the way, and the Royal Forest hunting team arrived at their destination on time.

As early as King's Landing, Green had arranged for people to go ahead with temporarily recruited craftsmen.

All the tents that the queen would use had been set up before they arrived, and the floors inside the tents were wooden floors that had been laid in advance.

This morning, the carpet merchant Petrie, who arrived early, also laid his Mill carpet on the floor.

Due to lack of time, Green could only do this. Everything else was as usual. The additional money he received from Petyr was mainly used to improve Queen Cersei's satisfaction.

Queen Cersei, who was in a happy mood, did not care about how many gold dragons Green had spent and how many gold dragons were left.

As for other people's tents, Green kept up the routine, and the busy crowd was starting to set them up.

……………………

In the queen's tent.

At this time, there are only two people here, Cersei and Green.

Queen Cersei is a "home girl" who prefers to stay in the Red Keep most of the time. She never likes dirt roads and dust, so she is very satisfied with Green's careful arrangements.

Queen Cersei was wearing a slit nightgown made of tulle material, and her delicate body was looming, which made Green's eyes nowhere to focus.

I couldn't destroy the character, as this would make Cersei's boss less interesting. Green had to lower his eyes to study the texture of the Myr carpet below.

……………………

Queen Cersei still had a full cup of summer red in her hand.

Queen Cersei glanced sideways at Green's appearance, a smile flashing across her eyes.

"Baron Green, has there been a reply from Highgarden?"

Green raised his eyes and looked at Queen Cersei with his brown eyes: "Yes, Your Royal Highness, the messenger from Highgarden has just arrived. My clan soldiers are responsible for the peripheral security over there, and I have directly arranged for the messenger from Highgarden to arrive. Other places will not be discovered by people here.”

After stroking the cup with her fingertips for a while, Queen Cersei took a sip of summer red before speaking: "You did a good job. You were right to stop the messenger of the inflatable fish. Don't let him appear in front of others for the time being."

Green slumped his shoulders and said with a helpless tone: "I just made more preparations out of habit. In fact, I don't really want my arrangements to be used. I can only guess that the Duke of Highgarden knows that you are going to send The Queen is so happy."

After a pause, Green continued: "Our letter crow hinted that we have important matters to discuss. Normally, both parties would have a tacit understanding. For example, I went to the High Court in the name of buying food."

Greene was doing both official and private business, running around for Queen Cersei and buying a batch of grain for the territory.

……………………

Queen Cersei glanced sideways at Green: "My little baron, did you discover something?"

Green spread his hands and said: "What was originally a normal thing has turned out to be abnormal. I think there must be something involved that we didn't expect.

There are people in Highgarden who may not want to see the Duke of Highgarden and Her Royal Highness the Queen establish... a friendship? "

Queen Cersei put the wine glass on the table with a bang, stared at Green with her beautiful eyes, and said in a cold tone: "Who is it? Who dares to interfere with my business?"

I guess I can't tell Queen Cersei, what if she asked me to go to Highgarden and chop someone down in a fit of anger!

It’s not easy working for Cersei’s boss!

Green actually misses Jaime. If he were here, even if Queen Cersei said it, she would take the initiative to stop him.

Jaime has been a bit neglectful of his duties lately. He has always been inseparable, but why is he often not with Queen Cersei.

Green stepped forward, picked up the jug and poured wine: "Your Royal Highness, anyone in Highgarden could be here. There is no specific person at the moment."

After filling the bottle, Green put the wine bottle back and said, "When I get to the High Court, if there are any people who interfere with Her Majesty the Queen, I will deal with them one by one."

Queen Cersei leaned on the back of the chair with a willful attitude, picked up the wine glass again, and raised the corners of her lips: "Then they have to be careful, they don't know that your sword blade is sharp!"

Queen Cersei raised her wine glass, raised her beautiful chin and took a sip of summer red: "I agree."
