Although many people had probably guessed this possibility long before Cersei admitted it, because King Robert's two children, Joffrey and Myrcella, both had golden hair.
But hearing Cersei admit it with her own ears still caused an uproar. People were talking about it, and even everyone on the trial bench couldn't help but whisper to each other.
Many of the dignitaries of the Seven Kingdoms at the trial did not know about this beforehand, and they did not know until Cersei suddenly revealed herself.
"Is there such a thing?"
"Robert..."
Eddard Stark's weather-beaten cheeks were tense, and he looked at his good brothers Robert, Joffrey, and Myrcella with a complicated expression. None of them were his children. How big a blow was this?
Ed thought of the girl Mia Stone in the Vale. Robert still retained his bloodline, but they were all illegitimate children, and no one could inherit his name.
"This is so surprising."
The Governor of the Riverlands, Earl Geoffrey Bracken, looked shocked. He had been busy clearing out the bandits around the Twins some time ago and repairing the abandoned castle. After returning to King's Landing, he was busy with official duties and had no time to listen to what was happening in the streets.
rumor.
"Yes, Lord Bracken, this is also the first time I have heard of this news."
On the other side, the Valley Governor Petyr Baelish, who was wearing a black cloak and leaning on the back of a chair with his legs crossed, responded to the old general's words and spoke in a clear voice.
"Queen Cersei is not of noble true dragon blood. She actually had incest with her brother and gave birth to two evil offspring."
"It seems that Prince Joffrey and Princess Myrcella should not be named Baratheon."
He intends to build a good relationship with the top dignitaries of the Seven Kingdoms in the future. After all, Littlefinger's promotion path is a bit special, relying on the seller's pursuit of glory, and they all have surnames and family power. Only the Baelish family has no roots or power.
, it is much more difficult to gain a foothold than others.
"Yes, poor two children."
"Then what should their last name be? Is it Lannister?"
"Maybe it should be called Joffrey Waters."
And Earl Geoffrey Bracken didn't know Littlefinger's tricks. He was not very good at politics, otherwise he wouldn't have been exhausted mentally and physically at the beginning, and then he voluntarily resigned from the position of Prime Minister and concentrated on being a naval admiral.
Therefore, when faced with the Valley Governor's overtures to strike up a conversation, the old earl nodded politely in response.
The Governor of the Valley and the Governor of the Riverland chatted wordlessly on the stage, while more people present turned their attention to the two children.
As the Lord of the Twin Rivers said, the most pitiable people are these two children. They did nothing, but a huge sin befell them.
Everyone was looking at Joffrey and Myrcella, but the blond boy's mind was also blank at this moment. The father he had called for so many years was not his father. On the contrary, his uncle was his father.
His brain couldn't hold such a huge amount of information for a while, so he just remembered what his mother told him to protect his sister.
"This scene looks familiar to me, Viserys."
At this moment, the brown-haired girl sitting on the left side of Viserys suddenly spoke.
"Um?"
Viserys was startled slightly, then turned his head.
"Do you think he looks like you? This is how we escaped from King's Landing."
Rhaenys pointed to Joffrey and Myrcella below, who were attracting the attention of everyone. The boy held his sister's hand, and Viserys was probably like this at the beginning.
However, his situation is more difficult. There are only a few soldiers around him, but there are countless times more people who want to kill him. Viserys has a huge bounty on his head, and he and he
Rhaenys had two children, and she also held an infant sister, Dany.
The silver-haired young man was speechless when he heard Rhaenys comparing herself and Joffrey to each other. You must know that Joffrey is the most annoying character, not even one of them.
"It's not like that."
"Joffrey is not my father. I was only in my early teens when Cersei was pregnant with him."
"Puch"
Viserys' unfunny joke amused Queen Arianne on her right, who covered her mouth with her hands and couldn't help laughing.
However, at this moment, the people below were subjected to countless ridicules and insults, and Robert, who received the most attention second only to Joffrey and Myrcella's children, suddenly spoke.
"alright"
His voice was low, trembling, full of pressure, and his breathing was heavy, like a silent volcano about to erupt.
He clenched his fists and lowered his head slightly to see his face clearly, but the chains binding his hands and feet trembled and made an overwhelming sound.
"I said...okay!"
Robert had thought that he would be humiliated and ridiculed by his enemies today, but Robert had already prepared to die. In fact, he had been prepared to die since he was imprisoned in prison, so just now he even
Impatiently urging Viserys to act quickly.
Robert was not afraid of death, but he did not expect that he would be given such a big surprise before he died.
He has been cuckolded for ten years and has become so green that even the children he has raised for many years are not his own, they are all the bastards left behind from the adultery of Cersei and Jaime.
Based on Robert's trust, he didn't think much about Cersei when she was alone with her brother.
However, thinking about it now, the two blond twins may have been rolling around on his bed at that time, and even when the two looked at each other, their eyes were full of special affection.
But at that time, Robert was very concerned and did not even think about the possibility of incest between his siblings. He also never thought about why his two children followed their mother's blond hair, while other Baratheon family members had blond hair.
The members, including his illegitimate son, all have black hair.
Even though Robert Baratheon is now dead, he is still the former king. His voice is still full of oppression, like a volcano about to erupt, making the surrounding nobles of the Seven Kingdoms, especially the generals who are good at fighting,
Sensing the sense of danger, they couldn't help but calm down the expressions on their faces and sit up straight.
The chaotic sounds around him were quickly disappearing, and everyone's eyes fell on the other protagonist, King Robert.
"Cersei"
"do not talk."
Robert Baratheon lowered his head, the chains on his hands jingled, his arms trembled slightly, the muscles on his shoulders bulged, dark veins popped out on the back of his thick hands, and he clenched his fists.
On the other side, the blond woman standing on the witness stand turned her head when she heard her husband's voice.
There was still a cheerful smile on her lips, as if a great revenge had been taken, she turned her head and was about to continue taunting him.
However, seeing her husband's current state, the words he spoke suddenly stopped and he swallowed them.
