Chapter 340 Rice Basin
———Half a year later, Tiernaria
"I'll leave it to you to take care of this. When I finish handling the unification of Pendor and the diplomatic relations of Westeros, I will personally go to Ulthuan to settle the account!"

"My lord, the belief of Ms. Misty has been spread in this world. Would you like to hold the ceremony of proclaiming the 'King of Redwood' right now?"

"No need, after the Pendor Continent and the Noldor Elves are completely unified by us, I will personally hold the King Ceremony across time and space!"

Half a year passed quickly, and with the completion of the first temple of mist made of marble in the town center of Tirnaria, Rohan was also preparing to lead his troops back to the continent of Westeros.

Since neither Rohan nor Dario was a qualified mage, Gael, the consul who surrendered, was still in charge of ruling this city belonging to the elves of Ain El.

At the same time, in order to prevent civil rebellion from threatening the spread of the faith, a permanent army of 4000 Silvermist warriors and 500 Ash dragon riders also entered the Mist Temple.

Coupled with the fact that members of the trial court scattered among the people began to strangle the rebel forces trying to resist, the security of Tirnaria was greatly improved for a while.

Under such circumstances, Rohan can finally return to the continent of Westeros, where the Academy of Magic was built, with the folks searching for the magic handbooks and precious inheritances that originally belonged to the sages of the elves.

On the square of the Misty Temple, Luohan silently looked at the elf warriors who were queuing up to pass through the portal in front of him, and said to a silver mist guard beside him:
"Mars, the security of this city is entrusted to you. Remember to do a good job in missionary work and management, understand?"

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will take good care of this city for you, as long as I'm still alive..."

"Stop, stop! If you really encounter some irresistible special circumstances, then the primary goal is to preserve your own strength, and there is no need to sacrifice too many of your own lives to protect this place.

And it's still early before the ceremony of proclaiming the king. I need to write a letter to the Witch King to explain the current situation, so you are not allowed to make trouble for me before that, understand? "

Rohan directly reached out and interrupted Mars's sensational speech that seemed about to be heroic, and then decisively ordered them to forbid them to call themselves His Majesty the King in public.

It's not that he has any doubts about becoming the 'King of Redwood', but he simply doesn't want to arouse the jealousy and dissatisfaction of the Witch King of Naggarond.

After all, although Malekith was honored as the orthodox Phoenix King by the Drucci elves, before retaking Ulthuan, this title was just empty talk, and it could even be said to be full of irony.

Although the current relationship between the two parties can be regarded as friendly neighbors, who knows if he will cause hostility from the other party if he rashly becomes king?
What's more, according to what Lohan knew about the Witch King when he was the captain of the Black Guard for a hundred years, as long as he didn't touch the other party's bottom line and at the same time still supported him to become the Phoenix King, he wouldn't mind no matter how much fun he had.

"Don't worry, my lord, I will ask the soldiers participating in the garrison in a state of combat readiness, and I will never let them cause you any trouble!"

Seeing Mars zipper his mouth with his fingers, Rohan walked towards the portal in satisfaction, preparing to return to the continent of Westeros he had been away for a long time.

Half a year is just a blink of an eye for elves, but it is so long for humans.

I heard that King Robert was seriously injured by a wandering wild hunting dog while he was out hunting. Before he died, he publicly accepted Joffrey as the future heir of the kingdom. The situation is very good for the elves.

What's more interesting is that Robert's will specifically emphasized that the future Hand of the King should be held by Rohan, who is a foreigner. This is really great news!
Thanks to years of getting along and taking care of him, although Joffrey is still the brutal and cruel blond relative, he has already obeyed Luo Han's words as his master.

What's more, Rohan almost never taught Geoffrey what governing the country is, so political issues can only be dealt with by the king.

Myrcella and Tommen, who are candidates for heirs, have also entered the Black Tower Academy to study, and the imperial meeting is also full of ministers who sold the country to the elves for their own interests, so it can be said that it is his family.

As for the Queen Cersei who thought she was a little clever and could use her beautiful body to reversely control Lohan for her own use?

Just because she was surrounded by court maids who betrayed her information but didn't know it, and even because Luohan regarded her as a rice bowl but thought that Luohan couldn't do without her complacent innocence, Luohan couldn't bear to hurt her.

These days, it's hard to find a big and brainless woman like Cersei, maybe it will be useful if she keeps it?

Thinking of this, Rohan flapped his wings and traveled through the cracks in time and space, leading his army to the deck of the Black Ark floating on the Iron Islands.

However, at this time, Rohan didn't know that the canary Cersei, who was let go by him because of a moment of kindness, was already preparing to repay him in the distant King's Landing!
———King’s Landing, The Red Keep
"My little Qiao has finally grown up, and now he has even been anointed with holy oil, and can become the most honorable king in this country!"

In the empty hall of the Iron Throne, Queen Cersei, who has become more beautiful due to long-term consumption of potions, is looking at the handsome eldest son in front of her with a sense of pride in her eyes.

Now that Robert is dead, all the suspects who knew the identities of the three golden retriever brothers and sisters were secretly executed with the help of the elves, all thanks to her!

If she hadn't put down her sense of shame to try her best to please Rohan, and allowed her promised land blessed by the gods to be intruded wantonly, how could Joffrey have achieved what he is today?

In addition to his good father, the noble Duke Tywin has been under the public eye in the battle with the Iron Islands, and the entire Lannister family has lost its former glory.

However, at this moment, she, Cersei, was able to push out her son with the blood of the Lannister family to inherit the Iron Throne, helping the Lannister Building to collapse, which can be said to have made an indelible contribution.

In the eyes of Cersei with a simple brain, all the glory now should be thanks to her!

Of course, the elves also made a lot of credit for her busy work, and they are also the objects that must be wooed.

Thinking of this, Cersei, who was watching Joffrey getting dressed, shrank her legs subconsciously, her charming blond face gradually turned red, and her eyes began to blur.

Half a year has passed, she is really thirsty~
Just when Cersei was about to dream, Joffrey's complaining voice suddenly came from the Iron Throne, interrupting the warm current that was about to flow out:

"Anoint the Holy Oil of the Seven Gods? Actually, I would rather be baptized by those devout monks in the Misty Temple, at least they are much more kind than that fat archbishop."

On the Iron Throne, Joffrey looked boredly at the maid in front of him who was grooming himself, then couldn't help but wiped the sharp thorns on the Iron Throne beside him and asked the ministers:

"My master, hasn't your honorable King's Hand returned to King's Landing yet? I can't wait to hold a feast in the Red Castle to welcome the master."

"Your Majesty, don't be too anxious. His Highness the Hand of the King has already said that he will come to attend your coronation ceremony. Presumably, he is about to come to King's Landing at this time, right?"

The Chancellor of the Exchequer, Petyr, responded to Joffrey's question with a flattering gesture. After all, not long ago, he had officially married the widow of the Duke of the Valley, and became a new nobleman with real power.

In addition, some time ago, the elven assassin of the court of justice placed an ebony dagger by his bed without anyone noticing, which made him suppress his desire for power and follow Joffrey loyally for the time being.

After hearing Littlefinger's answer, Joffrey couldn't help touching his handsome face, and then said to Cersei in a surprising way:
"Since this is the case, let's clean up the environment of King's Landing City, so that the master will not smell the stench of those untouchables every time in the sky above King's Landing City. How about this plan?"

As soon as this remark came out, the important ministers in front of the imperial court were shocked by this plan, obviously hesitant to this proposal suddenly made by His Majesty the King.

After all, the stench of the slums in King's Landing City has been around for a long time. The main reason why no king of the Targaryen family has been willing to deal with this mess for hundreds of years is because this stench has not affected the nobles.

And right now, the young king actually wants to waste money and people to manage the slums in King's Landing in order to please the elf leader. It always feels detrimental to the country's prestige!

However, most of the imperial ministers knew about the master-student relationship between King Joffrey and Rohan, and the current treasury did have spare money for the king to spend, so they simply turned a blind eye.

Unfortunately, not everyone has eyes:
"Your Majesty the King, I hope you can withdraw this suggestion and reconsider your relationship with the elves!"

I saw an obese middle-aged man squeezed out from the crowd. He first wiped the cold sweat off his face with a gorgeous gold silk satin, and then said anxiously:
"Nowadays, the war between the West and the Reach continues, and the Iron Islands are constantly plundering innocent people and livestock in the area, causing great distress to the nobles. This kind of provocation of the royal power must be punished!
I implore Your Majesty to form an expeditionary force against the Iron Islands, and finally conquer those barbarians like your father did, and bring glory to Westeros once again! "

Speaking of this, the newly appointed Minister of Justice began to persuade the young king on the Iron Throne a little passionately, without even noticing the dissatisfaction in the king's eyes.

As the ruler of the Reach, Mace Tyrell, the Duke of the Reach sent by the Tyrell family to seek support for the family, obviously did not know that he had just overruled the first order issued by the young king.

This incompetent duke dubbed "inflatable fish" by the world obviously doesn't know that there is a saying in this world called shooting a bird that stands out.

Looking at the duke who dared to deny the first order he gave, the cuteness that Joffrey had shown in front of Rohan instantly disappeared, replaced by ferocity like a lion.

To him, this guy not only dared to obstruct the order from the king, but also tried to prevent him from fulfilling his filial piety to the master who educated him like a father, it was courting death!
However, before Joffrey opened his mouth to reprimand, he saw his mother standing in a strange posture looking at the inflatable fish with disgusted eyes and taunting:

"It turned out to be the Duke of Mace in the Reach. I heard that you abandoned your army and fled alone on the battlefield. Now you dare to lick your face and ask the royal family for support?"

"This...His Royal Highness, I just hope that the continent of Westeros can return to stability, and I hope you can agree to this request."

Speaking of this, Metz's face was covered with nervous sweat. This kind of energy to confront the royal family made many ministers show a touch of imperceptible disdain and ridicule in their eyes.

This inflatable fish lord who has just arrived obviously doesn't know how much influence the elves have on the royal family, and he even wants to get a share of the Iron Throne treasury belonging to the elves, which is simply wishful thinking!

However, Mace is already in a hurry to go to the doctor. After all, the army of the Iron Islands is getting closer and closer to Highgarden, and he has no time to understand the situation in King's Landing.

After all, they have the teachings of the Drucci elves, so the ironborn can be said to have made the best of their looting of the West and the Reach, and they almost didn't scrape the land!
In addition, the tragedy of the Lannister family is just around the corner. The king and queen mother who have the blood of the Lannister family should not refuse, right?

However, in Cersei's eyes, the Lannister who is on the verge of collapse is irrelevant now, and the most important thing is to maintain the relationship with the strongest ally, the elves.

As for the West Territory and the Reach that have become wasteland?
She doesn't care!

"Defending the Reach was originally the responsibility my father entrusted to you, the Tyrell family. Now that you have lost the battle with the Iron Islands, you should fight back even harder. What does it have to do with our royal family?
There is no need to mention this matter in the imperial meeting in the future, and there is no need to cause trouble for me and the master for such trivial matters.

Now let's focus on the renovation of King's Landing, I can't wait to see the surprised expression on Master's face when he sees the changes in King's Landing! "

After Joffrey directly issued the death notice to the Reach, Cersei proudly looked down at the desperate inflatable fish like a victorious peacock, with a mocking smile on her face.

The reason why she strongly supports the improvement of King's Landing is not only to improve the current chaotic situation in the slums, but also to prepare for Rohan's ability to fly into the Red Castle to pick flowers in the future.

Thinking of this, Cersei couldn't help showing a charming look on her face, which made many peeping knights and nobles a little dumbfounded.

The Light of the Western Realm really deserves its reputation!
However, at this moment, Cersei and everyone present did not notice that in a slum not far from the Red Castle, a blond man in a black robe looked at the Red Castle enthusiastically.

Some passing poor people looked greedily at the money bag and sword at the man's waist, but when they saw the seven-pointed star on the man's forehead, they all moved away from each other.

He is a fanatic who is going to be martyred, and he can't be provoked!
However, except for a dirty little beggar on the street, who knelt on the ground and begged from the surrounding pedestrians, no one heard the muttering of the martyr:

"Cersei...Cersei! Hang in there, I'll come to your rescue in a minute!"
