iron throne of ice and fire

Chapter 29 For the Mercy and Justice of the Knights

Red Castle, 3rd Floor, Maegor Tower.

James has been guarding the door for nearly an hour.

This room is the room that Cersei likes to use when she has confidential affairs. The sound insulation of the wooden door is very good, and the sound inside the Chu room cannot be heard outside the door.

For some reason, James moved his body as if to lean his ear against the heavy wooden door.

James stopped his movements in time, forced a smile and shook his head, as if laughing at his childish behavior just now.

James straightened his back again, holding the sword handle tightly with his right hand, and flung off his white cloak with his left hand.

After another hour, the door finally opened and Green walked out of the room.

Green nodded towards James naturally: "Your Excellency James, thank you again for being my guide today, goodbye."

Green said goodbye to James politely.

James raised his eyebrows, and his lips curled into an arc: "Let me see you off."

Don't!Green wanted to say no.

Without waiting for Green's answer, James flicked his cloak and turned around. He had already taken a step, and Green had no choice but to acquiesce in James' escort.

........................

The two went down the stairs side by side, passed through the queen's hall, and walked out of Maegor's Tower.

When going down the stairs, the thoughtful Green noticed that James seemed to have something to say to himself.

Although Green didn't quite understand James' inexplicable hostility towards him, he also knew that there was no need to deliberately take the initiative. In addition, he spent a lot of brain cells today to lobby Queen Cersei, so Green pretended not to notice.

When Green saw Monton Weishui waiting at the door, he just waved his hand to keep up.

Green didn't utter a word.

Monton, whose gaze was still dull, nodded, rubbed his stomach, and followed behind Green.

........................

James finally slowed down: "Cough!"

James coughed lightly on purpose, and squinted at Green who was walking beside him.

Hearing the movement, Green turned his head to meet James' eyes, and his face showed doubts at the right time.

"What are you going to do? I'll keep it a secret."

Green didn't answer James immediately, but looked forward again.

Green and James did not stop: "Your Excellency James, I understand what you are worried about. In fact, I don't like killing."

Tyrion told James about this, and he agreed. Although it was the first time they met, James could feel that Green was not a bloodthirsty person. This was the judgment of an "old knight".

James nodded slightly.

Wasn't it because of the battle report's prejudice against my suspicion that the killing was too heavy?

Salad!Green didn't want to guess the reason why the tsundere man James had inexplicable hostility towards him.

"Your Excellency James, please look at the whole matter from another angle. If my plan succeeds, who will be the one who will benefit in the end?"

James' bright blue eyes moved.

"Her Highness Cersei and the common people."

"Fairly cut off the evildoers around them, at least their lives will be easier."

"It's governance, flexible good governance."

Green stopped in his tracks: "Your Excellency James, King's Landing is too strange to me. You have a great reputation. If you are willing to lend a helping hand, I will be more confident!"

Although James' face was calm, his heart was not calm, and he felt that his impression of Green had suddenly changed.

But... You can't just listen, you have to see how you do it!

James knew in his heart that Green's plan had been approved by Cersei.

Although the smile was faint, James showed a kind smile to Green for the first time: "This is a matter related to Her Highness Cersei, and I will support you."

Green's eyes were calm and heavy: "For Your Highness Cersei."

James couldn't help being led by Green, and repeated: "For Your Highness Cersei."

Green's right palm was solemnly attached to his left chest: "Sir James, also for the knight's mercy and justice!"

James' pupils shrank, his expression unconsciously serious.

Vale, Seagull Town, Lord's Hall.

After hearing the report from his subordinates, Earl Grafson frowned and said, "So, the only clue to the fire at Meka Manor is the chorus at the Port Square... called..."

The attendant whispered in Earl Grafson's ear: "Listen to the whispers in the crypt..."

"Yes, listen to the whispers of the crypt, half-savages of the Crabpaw Peninsula..."

"The Kreber family..."

"Yes, Kreb, it's their fault, right, but can a song alone be used as evidence? The Grafson family will be ridiculed by the big shots of the Red Keep."

Sheriff of Seagull Town: "Sorry, my lord, those thieves left too quickly and cleanly, without leaving us any evidence."

Earl Grafson's bachelor said: "In fact, everyone understands what's going on. The little baron of Kleber is imitating what the old lion Tywin did back then!"

Earl Grafson touched the top of his head: "Kaka... Cass..."

"The rainy season in Castame..."

"Yes, the rainy season in Castame! This is revenge for my cousin, and I don't want to leave evidence for us!"

Earl Grafson tapped on the table for a while, "Bachelor, what do you think we should do? Such a big incident happened in Seagull Town. As the lord, I can't do nothing. There must be many people secretly waiting to see my joke!"

Earl Grafson's bachelor: "You can let other people contact Duke Jon. Don't forget that there is a branch of Duke Jon's family in Seagull Town."

"As the lord of Seagull Town, it is not easy to report a noble directly to the Red Castle without direct evidence of guilt, but they are different. They are a family, and it is appropriate to report privately to Duke Jon."

"good idea!"
