Tyrion and Cersei's secret talks lasted for a long time.
Cersei is like a trapped beast, she holds King's Landing tightly in her hands, and ties the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in King's Landing to her.
She is a woman and does not have the skills of men to fight for supremacy on the battlefield, and the political skills she thinks she has are actually not that smart.
But she stubbornly recognized one thing, that is, Viserys absolutely did not want to get a King's Landing with corpses everywhere and ruins everywhere.
Otherwise, the soldiers of the Golden Regiment holding high the banner of "Fire Dragon Above, Gold Below" outside the city began to attack the city from the first day they arrived.
This is the military flag modified after the Golden Company joined the Targaryen camp. On an earthy yellow flag, the top is the coat of arms representing the three-headed fire dragon of the Targaryen family, and the bottom is the golden skull symbol of the Golden Company.
This symbolizes that the Golden Company submits to the Targaryen family, but still wants to maintain a certain integrity.
This is the defensive mentality of the commanders of the Golden Company. They are afraid that after joining the Targaryen camp, they will be dismantled into pieces and allowed to be slaughtered by others.
This is also one of the conditions for the Golden Company to join the Targaryen family for free.
"Unsullied, although the Golden Company is strong, it is not that easy to defeat King's Landing."
Under the candlelight swaying gently in the wind, Cersei gritted her teeth slightly and said.
"Only if Viserys agrees to my conditions and does not kill Joffrey, Myrcella and Jaime, will I hand over King's Landing to him completely."
Being able to save the lives of her children and brother is her bottom line, and she cannot give up the lives of Joffrey, Myrcella and Jaime.
In fact, 'Littlefinger' Petyr Baelish brought good news as early as when he returned from Pentos.
She didn't know the specific negotiation process between Petyr and Viserys, because there was no way to make it public.
But Littlefinger Petyr Baelish assured the beautiful queen with all his heart that Viserys accepted her offer.
Littlefinger claimed that Viserys immediately agreed to Cersei's name upon hearing her name, and even salivated with desire to put her into his bed.
Because he had heard Queen Cersei's reputation as beautiful and virtuous across the Narrow Sea. She was called the most beautiful woman in the Seven Kingdoms. Compared with her, Lyanna Stark was like the light of a torch to the rising sun.
difference.
Cersei was happy when she heard Littlefinger's words, but she didn't believe them all, and was still a little doubtful.
Because Petyr's habit of lying is well known among the nobles in King's Landing.
"The words of the Eight-Clawed Spider and Littlefinger are the most untrustworthy in King's Landing."
Moreover, he did not bring back any tokens that could support his words, and the Targaryen family did not take the initiative to make any contact with her after that.
Therefore, when the army of Dragonstone was approaching, Cersei chose to close the door and wait for the situation to change.
Because her affair with her brother was exposed, Cersei ordered the murder of the Queen's Prime Minister Jon Arryn. Her other path had already been blocked. Now the last path left for Cersei is to believe in Pei.
Words of Tyr Baelish.
And now Tyrion's arrival is like a life-saving straw.
The noble and beautiful queen looks calm on the surface and everything is under her control, but she secretly hides her brother Jaime and hurriedly summons Tyrion to the Red Keep for a secret meeting because she knows very well that Jaime is
You must be unwilling to surrender.
The secret talks between Tyrion and his sister Cersei lasted until midnight, and no one knew the specific results of the negotiations.
Then the Commander-in-Chief of the City Guard, Janos Sterling, led more than fifty gold robes to raid Jaime Lannister, who had just finished patrolling up and down the city wall, and his other sworn brother Arys.
Oakheart, and their escort from the Red Keep.
It was not a quiet night in King's Landing. The drizzle was falling overhead and causing water splashes on the ground.
The two of them were wearing white armor without family crests and raincoats, and walked down the steps of the city wall while chatting.
The personal relationship between Jaime and Arys is actually pretty good, mainly because Jaime doesn't like Malin Tran, Boros Braun, Preston Greenfield and Mandon Moore at all.
He believed that these four people did not have the qualities of a knight and should not be called knights at all but killers.
Although except for Jaime and Barristan, Arys and the other four were among the five Kingsguards promoted by Cersei, but Arys was still better than them.
When faced with something that is insulting to honor, such as slapping a girl, at least Alex will protest first and then execute it, while the other four will not hesitate, no matter good or bad.
James had just inspected the city walls of King's Landing, checked out some loopholes and problems in the city's defense, and ordered the soldiers to correct them.
Yesterday, he received a reply from Storm's End. Duke Renly stated that he was aware of the siege of King's Landing and was willing to send some reinforcements to support King's Landing.
With the help of reinforcements, James felt much more relaxed, at least the pressure on his heart was not so great.
But for some reason, his mind still couldn't help but think of what Tyrion said during the day.
"The most loyal dog will bite his owner when he is about to starve to death."
What does Tyrion mean by this?
Has the Lord Commander of the City Watch, Janos Sterling, secretly betrayed the Lannister family?
How did Tyrion know?
Janos Sterling has already made contact with the Targaryen family? Should we capture them in advance?
However, if he revokes his martial arts skills without any evidence because of Tyrion's words, it will be too easy for the Targaryen family to deal with them.
James slowly walked down the city wall with one hand on the hilt of his sword. The armor on his body made a sound. His mind was a little wandering and he didn't hear what Alex just said.
At this time, on the main road running through King's Landing under the Gate of the Gods, a group of soldiers from the city guard in the distance were holding torches high, stepping on the rain. They were wearing golden robes dyed with thick wool, armor, helmets and weapons.
The reflected light is coming in this direction.
James saw these people still holding one hand on the hilt of their swords, but they stopped slightly, and the smiles on their faces slowly disappeared.
Because he saw that the leader of this group of golden robes was none other than Janos Sterling, whom he was thinking about just now.
What does he want to do by bringing so many people here?
"Oops."
For some reason, James suddenly had a strong bad feeling in his heart, and then he suddenly pulled out his sword and roared loudly.
