Game of Thrones: Lord of the Deep - Chapter 236

c234 Cersei: I need an explanation.

It’s not just Littlefinger who’s feeling uncomfortable at this moment, but also Olenna and Cersei.

King’s Landing, Red Keep.

“I need an explanation, Duke of Mace!” Cersei looked at Mace with sharp eyes.

Mace looked frightened on the surface, and said tremblingly: “I don’t know, Her Majesty the Queen Mother, this must be a rumor, trying to provoke internal fighting among us. My mother is not that kind of person.”

Although Cersei knew that the North wanted to provoke internal strife in the South, she knew that what to do next was another matter.

Especially after Joffrey died, Olenna ran away directly with Margaery, which has to make people think of some bad directions.

If Loras and the Duke of Mace hadn’t been in King’s Landing, Cersei might have started gathering her troops by now.

However, Cersei did not easily believe what the Duke of Metz said, “Come, please bring the Duke of Metz back to the room first. No one is allowed to meet the Duke of Metz without my permission.”

Cersei wanted to imprison the Duke of Mace, but Mace looked ugly. Kevan finally couldn’t bear it any longer. Cersei’s stupidity was far beyond his imagination.

“That’s enough. The Duke of Mace is the Guardian of the South. He has the power to see whoever he wants to see. No one has the power to monitor a Duke!” Kevan stared at Cersei and reminded her word by word.

Kevan had a headache. Cersei’s stupidity was far beyond his imagination. She wanted to put the Duke of Southland under house arrest just because of a rumor without evidence. Only Cersei could do such a heartless thing.

Now the Westeros War will begin, and it will be a war involving dragons. In the future, its scale will definitely not be lower than the original War of the Five Kings, and will even surpass Robert’s Rebellion.

In this case, any ally is very important. Poseidon’s reforms in the north are well known, and the southern nobles are all natural allies of the Iron Throne.

If these allies are forced to oppose each other because of this unknown true or false news, Kevan will really go to hell to find his good brother Tywin.

However, Cersei didn’t expect so much. She turned her head and looked at Kevan without fear:

“I am the regent prime minister. I represent the king. My words are the king’s words. My power is the king’s power. What you just said is enough to sentence you to death ten times.”

Cersei’s words made Kevan look livid, but now that Tywin has passed away, Jaime has returned to Casterly Rock to inherit the title. With Cersei’s position in Tommen’s heart, King’s Landing is now basically under Cersei’s control.

This also made Cersei unprecedentedly arrogant. Of course, the most important thing was that Jaime inherited Casterly Rock. She believed that Jaime would support him unconditionally.

“By the way, didn’t you want to go back to Casterly Rock City before? You can go back now. Remember to assist my brother, Sir Kevan!”

Kevan felt like she was going to be pissed to death. She never expected that a male lion would give birth to such stupid offspring.

Cersei’s stupidity is incomprehensible to Kevan, and Cersei is not only stupid, but also very arrogant. She always feels that everyone has to listen to him and revolve around her.

Bang!

Kevan slammed the table angrily. The royal ministers present looked at each other, but no one dared to speak. Cersei and the others couldn’t afford to offend, and Kevan and the others couldn’t afford to offend either.

“Sooner or later, you will pay the price for your stupidity.” Kevan said angrily, stood up and left the Prime Minister’s Tower.

After Kevan left, Cersei smiled confidently. Tywin was gone, Jaime returned to the West, and King’s Landing is now her world.

Looking back at the armored Mountain behind her, Cersei felt unprecedentedly relaxed. This feeling of power made her intoxicated.

And without Kevan, the ministers present were all Cersei’s people. As expected, the Duke of Mace and Loras were placed under house arrest separately.

After entering the room, Duke Metz’s face lost the look of panic, and instead showed unparalleled anger.

“Damn Cersei, do you think you’re Tywin?”

Not to mention Cersei, not even Tywin dared to imprison the Duke of the Reach openly.

After all, the 12 million people in the Reach are not a good place to look.

However, Cersei has always been arrogant, making her feel that she can control the Reach as long as she controls the Duke of Mace.

Cersei is going to threaten Olenna to marry Margaery to Tommen. As long as the rice is cooked, the Reach will naturally cooperate with him to defeat Poseidon.

But that’s not how the Game of Thrones works. After Cersei placed the Duke of Metz under house arrest, Highgarden received the raven from King’s Landing just one day later.

Looking at the contents of the letter, Olenna’s expression remained unchanged, but the flashing eyes betrayed her. Obviously she did not expect that Cersei would directly place Mace under house arrest.

Olenna took Margaery back to Highgarden, leaving the Duke of Mace and Loras, who was preparing to marry Cersei. With the current situation, anyone with a discerning eye knew that the Tyrell family was preparing to reconsider their side.

As a result, instead of winning over the Tyrell family, Cersei directly put Mace Tyrell, Duke of the River Bend, under house arrest.

At this tense moment, Cersei’s actions are undoubtedly pushing the Reach into the arms of the Poseidon family.

If the policies implemented by Jack Poseidon in the north had not harmed the interests of the nobles, there may be many nobles who secretly contacted the Poseidon family.
