Dominate the Game of Thrones with Mount and Blade

Cersei Lannister's death has contributed more to the world than her entire life.

Considering that she only lived to be 34 years old, Queen Mother Cersei's contribution to the world during her lifetime was not much, except that she cultivated an enterprising King Joffrey.

For the Lions stationed in the Red Keep and King's Landing, the death of the Queen Mother saved their lives.

In the room of the 34-year-old Queen Mother, Arthur found the fake Tommen, a little boy of five or six years old.

After the King of the Rivers pretended to ask him harshly, the child admitted that his name was not Tommen.

"My name is Levi Lanni!" he said timidly.

According to the child's surname, he should be a distant relative of the Lions in Lannisport. Although he has a surname, he has no fiefdom or castle, and is not much different from a commoner without a surname.

Arthur handed the broadsword to the soldier behind him and picked up the child. "I'll take you to see a few people, and then I'll have someone send you home, okay?"

Although the child's face could not be seen clearly in the dark, judging from his shaking little body, the child was still very scared.

"Okay... okay."

After Levi agreed, Arthur held him and walked out with the soldiers following him.

The River King's target was the Prime Minister's Tower, which had been captured by hundreds of Redwyne soldiers.

It was late at night, and only the Lannister soldiers stationed in the Red Castle were wearing armor on duty, and the rest were resting as usual, so the soldiers led by Sir Willow fought exceptionally smoothly.

At present, Maegor's Tower, Prime Minister's Tower and White Sword Tower have been firmly controlled by Redwyne soldiers, and the throne room, garden, stables and traitor corridor to the west are being fought back and forth by the soldiers of the two families.

Although the Lion Family soldiers are numerous, the news that Queen Mother Cersei has died has spread. After the Lando Army breaks through the Lion Gate, it is estimated that these Westerlands people will not want to fight.

After climbing the hundreds of steps in front of the Prime Minister's Tower, Arthur hugged Levi and walked towards the "Little Hall".

Although it is called the "Little Hall", this big room is really not small. The long table and chairs are arranged in a row, which can accommodate two hundred people. When Eddard was the Prime Minister, half of the Stark family ate here, Sister Mordane and Sansa did needlework here, and once the dining table was removed, it was the place where Arya and Water Dance practiced swords.

At this moment, hundreds of candles were burning on the tower candlesticks, dispelling the darkness that enveloped the world.

Hopper was reporting the movements of the River Reach Army to his grandmother and great-aunt Lady Olenna. The Knight of Flowers, wearing a wide brocade robe, stood behind his grandmother. A dozen Redwyne soldiers were scattered in the small hall, forming a tight defense line with the soldiers on the steps outside the tower.

Margaery, the little rose in a dark blue dress, sat beside the Queen of Thorns, listening to her cousin talking about military and political events.

Although she was not very interested in these, as a participant in the Game of Thrones, she should also know some important things.

"...After being reminded by the Dragon Bearer, we fought our way in from the secret passage of the Red Keep, and then... Cersei has been killed, and Lord Randyll Tarly is leading the army to attack from the East Gate. Our situation is very good."

Hobber briefly explained the previous situation.

Because the Tyrell family of the River Bay did not swear allegiance to the King of the River, Hobber still used the title of Dragon Bearer when facing his grandmother.

"Secret passage..." The Queen of Thorns pondered for a moment, and then looked at her granddaughter Margaery.

In addition to Varys, the chief intelligence officer, the only people who knew the secret passage of the Red Keep were members of the Targaryen family.

This made the rumor that the Dragon Bearer was Rhaegar's illegitimate son more credible.

At this time, a sound of footsteps came.

The guards immediately became alert, but when they saw that it was an ally, they returned to their original positions.

Arthur said loudly: "This is the fake Tommen, his real name is Levi Lanny."

As he spoke, he walked towards several nobles and handed the child to Hopper.

The latter took it, looked at it for several times, and said to the grandmother: "The facial features are indeed very similar, but the height is much different. No wonder Cersei felt guilty and took action directly in the throne room."

Lady Olenna also took the child and asked carefully.

Of course, she did not forget to secretly wink at her granddaughter.

The smart and beautiful Margaery naturally understood what her grandmother meant, so her face suddenly became sad and aggrieved, then she stood up, threw herself directly on Arthur, and hugged Arthur's neck with her white arms.

Although wearing a throat guard and a neck armor made people look uncomfortable, Little Rose did not hesitate and stuck to him directly.

"Without you, my grandmother and I might have been killed by the Lannisters."

The coquettish whisper made Arthur's heart tremble.

Can he resist the beauty's coquetry? No, he doesn't have the strength!

Arthur gently patted Little Rose's beautiful back with his iron-gloved hand, "Don't worry, I'm here."

There were many people in the small hall. Margaery complained coquettishly about the weakness of her brothers and the incompetence of her family soldiers for a while before letting Arthur go.

The Queen of Thorns has figured out all the details, "If Tommen is really dead, then the Baratheon family no longer has the right to inherit the Iron Throne. Our Tyrell family used to be loyal to the Targaryen royal family, and we will be in the future."

In the current situation, the Reach and the Lannister family are no longer bound, and they are unlikely to support Stannis, the true heir of Robert, but because they are not very familiar with the King of the Riverlands, Lady Olenna spoke very implicitly.

Hobber Redwyne understood what the aunt meant, "Red or black, a dragon is a dragon. Your Majesty, we Riverlands people are always loyal to you."

They didn't know how to calculate the relationship between the King of the Riverlands and the Targaryens, so they spoke vaguely.

According to the rumors, the King of the Riverlands was considered a bastard of Rhaegar. Before the Targaryen King ennobled him, he had no right to inherit the Dragon family, not to mention that this rumor had never been confirmed by Arthur himself.

"Great, with your joining, my kingdom can be renamed the Kingdom of the Three Rivers and the Riverlands." Arthur said.

In order to build momentum, the two earls Tristan Legg and Clermont Piper ordered people to spread rumors in the prosperous towns and crowded villages of the Riverlands, but this was a confusing account, and Arthur himself couldn't explain it clearly. It couldn't be that he recognized Rhaegar as his wild father, right? So he was vague.

His idea was to discuss it in detail after Daenerys Stormborn came, or to learn from the Martell family of Dorne and use a compound surname after marrying the Dragon Queen.

The full name of the family is Nymeros Martell, where Nymeros means the blood of Nymeria, and Martell is the surname of the lord of Sandship before Roy brought people here.

The Queen of Thorns blinked, not knowing what the handsome king meant.

Doesn't he want to claim the Iron Throne?

However, despite the doubts, Lady Olenna still put forward her own demands.

"Your Majesty, I heard that you are not married yet. I think my granddaughter Margaery is a qualified queen, so..."

She and her grandchildren are under house arrest here, and they don't know that Arthur has married Sansa Stark.

"Ahem, ahem, that, His Majesty Arthur has married Miss Sansa." Hopper looked embarrassed and reminded his grandmother in a low voice.

When the King of Hejian heard this, he was anxious on the spot. How could Margaery, who was already in his hands, fly away?

How could such a big beauty, the delicate little Rose, not marry herself just because of Hobber's words?

"It's okay, it's okay. I believe in the ancient Valyrian gods. They don't care how many wives I marry. For the stability of the king, I will work hard, be an old farmer, and cultivate more land."

Arthur waved his hands repeatedly, indicating that these were all minor issues.

The people of the Rose family looked at each other, and the Queen of Thorns didn't know how to deal with it.

The scene became a little subtle.

Arthur decided to go outside to chop for a while and let the people of the Rose family decide for themselves.

He winked at Hobber, who had a good relationship with him, and then said loudly: "Since there are still a large number of Lannister soldiers outside, I won't waste time. You guys, follow me. Let's go and chop down the Lion's soldiers!"

After taking the big knife from the soldier behind him, the King of Rivers nodded to several members of the Tyrell family, pressed down his visor, turned around and strode away.

More than 20 soldiers he pointed out also came out. This group of fresh troops walked down the steps quickly and killed towards the main battlefield garden.

...

In the small hall, Hobber, who was awakened, understood that the King of Rivers still wanted to marry his cousin.

So he changed his tone, "Balerion and other gods really don't care how many wives believers marry. Now that the seven realms are in chaos, even if our Margaery marries him later in the order, it won't be too much of an injustice to my cousin."

Margaery is the face of the Tyrell family. What Hobber meant by this is that the Tyrell family is not ashamed.

The decadent Loras didn't care about the engagement, and his relationship with Renly was already a serious blasphemy.

"Grandmother, I don't think it's a big deal either. They are both queens, so how can we tell who is better? Besides, Miss Sansa is the eldest daughter of Duke Stark, and there are almost no daughters of noble nobles who are more noble than her. It's not wronged for my sister to marry Arthur."

In the entire Westeros continent, there are only two families with a history of ten thousand years: Hightower in Oldtown and Dayne in Fallen Star. Both families are currently only earls.

The nobles with a history of eight thousand years are: Lannister, Stark, and the Greenhand family of the Reach.

Compared with the top nobles Stark, who have only been the lord of Highgarden for three hundred years, the Tyrell family is indeed not very impressive.

The Queen of Thorns glared at her grandson Loras, "Your brain is all used on your good skill of swallowing swords. I'm not entangled with this. Why did the dragon owner say that his kingdom is the Kingdom of Three Rivers and the Reach, not the Seven Kingdoms?"

The queen of the Seven Kingdoms and the queen of the Two Realms are two different things.

The Knight of Flowers, who was choked by his grandmother, smiled awkwardly and stopped talking.

Hopper continued to smooth things over for Arthur, "Alas, grandmother, Princess Arianne Martell of Dorne is already in his army, and Lady Sansa has also married him. The two most difficult territories in the Seven Kingdoms have been taken down, and the Westerly has been devastated. It is only a matter of time before it is taken down. Stannis and Aegon VI in the Stormlands are fighting each other. We just need to wait for them to finish fighting before we can intervene. There is only one valley that we cannot do anything about for the time being, but Petyr Baelish is also a smart man. When we have dealt with the Westerly and the Stormlands, what else can he choose?"

Although Aegon VI claimed to be the eldest son of Rhaegar, many people knew that the Mountain did kill all of Rhaegar's descendants, so there were few nobles in the Seven Kingdoms to support Aegon VI.

At present, there is only one known noble who publicly supports Aegon VI: Jon Connington, but he is the deputy leader of the Golden Company, and the Mad King has deprived the Clinton family of their territory and castle, and their influence is far less than before.

The Queen of Thorns' face changed slightly when she heard this, "And the Dornish princesses? How many does he want to marry? Will he have enough bodies?"

Because the Martell family has intermarried with the Targaryens many times, Dorne is a staunch supporter of the Dragon family. In order to gain the support of the princes, the dragon supporters will most likely marry Arianne.

They talked for a long time, and the main person, Margaery, whispered: "I don't care how many he marries, as long as I am the queen. When I give birth to his first son, everything will be in our hands."

From birth to now, this noble lady has been instilled with the idea that family interests are greater than her own interests, and she has her own ambitions.

The Queen of Thorns looked at her granddaughter with relief, "You are much better than Garlan and Loras, so it's settled. Since Miss Stark has married him, you must get pregnant with his child as soon as possible, so as not to be born late."

The customary inheritance law of the six northern countries is that the eldest son takes everything.

When the king has two queens, whoever gives birth to the eldest son first will win this war without gunpowder.

Even the queen's family will benefit from it for a long time.

Little Rose nodded and took note of her grandmother's words. She was going to go to Arthur and open her heart in a day or two.

Seeing that the matter had been settled, Hopper felt that he had done his duty to Arthur, so he casually said, "Anyway, we will occupy King's Landing and the Red Keep in the future, so we might as well arrange for maids and male servants to come in as soon as possible and make plans for the future."

In the past, the servants and guards of the entire Red Keep were divided up by Cersei, Varys, Littlefinger and others. Even the late King Robert did not have many attentive servants, and could only rely on Lancel Lannister as his attendant.

The Queen of Thorns nodded, "When the situation stabilizes, Hopper will do this and pick people from King's Landing. Loras should not be idle either. Find someone to find out the secret passage system of the Red Keep, then write it down and draw it on the canvas."

In the foreseeable future, the Tyrells and the Rivermen will be one of the most important roles in King's Landing, and the Queen of Thorns is already thinking about how to run the Red Keep.

"By the way, after driving the Lannister soldiers out of King's Landing, you should send a few earls to welcome Mace over, and bring Miss Stark over as well. She is the queen, how can she live in a place like Harrenhal that is almost in ruins?"

Lady Olenna arranged.

She already has several ways to prevent Sansa from having children.

The people of the Rose family are planning for the future, but Arthur has to face the present.

The Lion family soldiers in the Red Castle are the real main force of the Lannisters, with strong fighting spirit and extremely high morale.

Although the news of the Queen Mother's death has spread, these Lion family soldiers have become more and more courageous, and they have already fought back from the garden to the throne room.
