The Winter of Ice and Fire Is Coming

Chapter 246: New Bachelor·Lion Assault·Varys Captured

A few days later.

Throne Hall.

Conference room of the Imperial Minister.

In the middle of the long table facing the gate, sits the newly enthroned King-Stannis I.

His unsmiling face was like a dark cloud, which was daunting.

On the right hand side of the king, in the first position, sits the red-robed woman Melisandre.

She is full of charm, with a sweet and charming smile on her face.

However, in Varys's eyes, Melisandre's smile was more terrifying than Stannis' black face.

In the first position on the left hand side of the king, sitting Ed Stark, the Prime Minister of the Seven Kingdoms, in the morning, Ed Stark was canonized by the King as Prime Minister forever-this is a special supreme honor .

No one can be the prime minister forever, this appointed title is only about honor.

Next to Ed Stark sits Davos Seaworth, the hand of the acting prime minister.

Varys sat down next to Melisandre, his perfume and white powder rubbed more than Melisandre.

Little Finger was sitting next to the Octopus Spider, a little far away, as if he disliked Varys a little bit today.

Sir Balistan Selmi, the captain of the Royal Forest Guard of the former King Robert, is still the captain of the Royal Forest Guard of the current king. He finally no longer needs to go hunting with the king, and attends the meeting of ministers every afternoon.

Yulin Tiewei, only the captain has this power and honor.

He can express his views on any proposal and any government affairs, whatever he wants, without worrying about being taken down and beheaded. This is a special power and responsibility granted by the law.

But other important ministers can't do as he pleases.

A new face has been added today: Bachelor Palos.

Palos was a courteous young man, twenty-four years old, but as serious as a sixty-year-old old man. He was like the shadow of King Stannis, without a sense of humor, and seemed to lack vitality. For the first time, he sat at the royal conference table, a little nervous and cramped.

The bachelor who has been with Stannis for a long time is named Christen, who is almost eighty years old, and is as kind to Stannis as his father. He is a well-educated bachelor in the old town of learning, but his health is not good. A year ago he fell and injured his hip bone, and he never got better. The city sent the young bachelor Palos.

However, this is only a superficial reason. As an old bachelor who believes in the Seven Gods, he cannot accept Stannis' conversion to the Lord of Light, and he has a deep prejudice against the red robe woman. When Stannis King's Landing won the Iron Throne, the status of the red-robed lady rose even more. A group of noble knights guarded the common people around the most pious queen Cyris, they all converted to the Red God, and more and more old vassals under Stannis believed in the Red God. Popularity was completely ill.

Stannis was a stubborn person. Christen could not persuade him, nor could he order Christen’s fellows to believe in the Red God, and the decades of intimacy between the two had a very deep barrier.

Stannis is someone who won't change his mind when he sees it. After the army battleship vassal and queen princess bachelor of Longshidao came to the king, he directly appointed the young man Palos as the royal bachelor.

Pelos still had a lot to learn, but he was full of confidence in himself, because he also followed King Stannis and believed in the King of Light, Lakhlo. With the red-robed girl Melisandre present, he has more confidence in his heart.

Tomorrow, Ed Stark will leave King's Landing on the royal battleship Warhammer and return to the north.

The Warhammer was named after the weapon Warhammer used by the former king Robert.

Just three days ago, the army of the West Territory had been ignited in the Three Rivers. Duke Tuli was caught off guard. He lost three consecutive battles in one day and lost a dozen or so vassal castles. Large tracts of farmland and vassal villages were burned to white ground. Men, women and children, except for the beautiful women and young girls who were used as camp prostitutes, all were killed and their heads stuck with the tip of a gun. All the livestock and food of the subjects were robbed.

Obviously, Duke Taiwen got the news of the King’s Landing coup very quickly. Someone sent a raven on the night of the Red Fort mutiny. A good raven can deliver the news to Duke Tywin in just one day and one night. It takes ten days to gather the army at the earliest to gather vassals, but the Duke of Tywin dispatched twelve groups of small troops to attack dozens of villages in the river and destroy the river the same night after receiving the raven news. Farmland in the middle of the land.

This shows that Duke Taiwen's western army had actually been assembled before the coup.

The outstanding military talent and keen political premonition of the old lion should not be underestimated.

He became famous in the Seven Kingdoms at the age of seventeen because of land and naval battles. At the age of twenty, he was invited by King Iris into the palace to become prime minister because of the prestigious governance of the West. He is really a rare talent. He did not become prime minister because the king named James Lannister as the Royal Guard and did not discuss with him and voluntarily resigned.

Duke Taiwen’s twelve-way assault was too fast to conceal his ears. With this, he stunned the Tuli family in Runliu City...The Tuli family was unprepared. Beforehand, the vassals from various places under the family had not received any news about the West...

In order to buy time, Ed Stark took the royal battleship Warhammer back to the north from the waterway. The battleship was equipped with 600 of the best oarsmen. Three hundred oarsmen were used for rowing at a time. Two groups of people were rotated. In the case of wind, the warship can also return to the north as quickly as possible, and then summon vassals, lead the army to the south, and fight against the lion of Tywin Lannister.

Mountain rain has come!

The speed of the lion surpasses everyone's imagination in King's Landing!

Today is the last meeting of ministers attended by Ed Stark.

The meeting was short and clear, and Stannis approved the bill very quickly. As long as he presents his political opinions and everyone expresses his opinions, he does not need to listen to them. As long as he makes a judgment in meditation, he will make a decision immediately, without any muddling.

The Captain of the Iron Guard proposed to form a new Imperial Forest Iron Guard, he immediately approved it and asked Barristan to submit the list of Iron Guards to him within one day for him to choose.

Davos raised the issue of the replacement of mid-level officers in the capital garrison and the golden robes of the garrison. He immediately instructed all the former mid-level officers of the capital garrison to be transferred away and asked them to form a new army and train for three months , And then went to the Yulin Brotherhood on the opposite bank of the Heishui River and the other two bandit regiments. The positions of the vacated mid-level officers of the garrison are all served by outstanding sergeants of the Black Armored Army on Longshidao.

As for the attire of the golden robe, they were all replaced with black armor.

Since then, the golden robe of King's Landing has completely become history, and the Black Armored Army garrison has entered the stage of history.

The only problem in the end was that the red-robed girl Mei Li Shanzhuo proposed to demolish the sanctuary in the Red Fort, shovel the sacred tree forest, and build a huge temple for the red **** Lakhlo. This proposal was opposed by all the important ministers. Shi Tannis ended the hot debate between the two sides with only two words: put it aside!

The time of this meeting is less than one-third of the time of the previous meeting, and Stannis I’s handling of government affairs is simply a flash of light.

Then the meeting ended, because Stannis didn't like dragging people, so everyone left quickly.

However, when Varys walked to the gate, Sir Barristan Selme stopped him. Varys turned his head and saw Stannis. The red-robed girl and Ed Stark did not move, watching Hold him.

Stannis' eyes were always cold and ruthless, Ed Stark was expressionless, and Ms. Melisandre looked at him affectionately.

"What's the matter?" Varys laughed.

"Master Varys, I saw your secret in the flames." The lady in the red robe stood up and walked in front of Varys, her white smooth hand gently cupped Varys' pink face, "Your Majesty, please let me Give this traitor to Rahlo, Lord of Light."

"No!" Stannis said, his voice not warm, "I will personally cut off his head, and then insert the tip of the gun on the gate of the Red Fort, and let the crow peck the flesh on his cheek."
