Game of Thrones: Lord of Winter

Chapter 117 Wedding Invitation

"Sir, are you kidding me?" Redwin said bluntly.

"Sansa Stark is in our hands."

"Don't forget, Jaime is also in their hands." Cersei reminded him.

How could Tyrion forget that he stopped that bastard Little Joe from bullying Sansa in the hope that he could exchange her for his brother? "They are deeply persecuted by the Ironborn. Who is the enemy of the Ironborn who captured Winterfell and burned Lord Eddard's two sons to death?"

"The North is not at peace now, my lord." The eunuch said softly, "Although the Ironborn have evacuated there."

"After taking back Winterfell, Eddard Stark gathered a large army at White Harbor and seemed to be preparing to ferry south."

Tyrion suddenly had a bad feeling.

"Although Lord Landao has brought us a lot of good news, the enemies in the riverlands are still tenacious." Varys said.

Although they looked like they had a temporary advantage, the enemies seemed to retain their strength.

Cole Julius in the south re-assembled an army at Storm's End, training the new army hard, and seemed to be preparing to use troops against Bronzegate City and the Stormlands.

King's Landing seems to have fallen into passivity again, and all the methods originally intended to deal with Stannis were ineffective.

The army led by Mace Tyrell that besieged Storm's End was defeated by Cole in one fell swoop, and the Arbor Fleet used to deal with the Royal Fleet was also sunk by the Ironborn.

If Stannis is allowed to regain the Stormlands, King's Landing is likely to fall into a siege from the north and the south.

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister, this is the news sent by the birds from Bronze Gate City. The Kingswood area is now occupied by Julius's wild men." The Grand Maester glanced at Tyrion.

He knew why the old guy looked at him. It was just because Xia Ga and others had worked for him under him.

"Count Ralph Buckler has urged us to send troops to support Bronze Gate City as soon as possible." Cersei said. In the hall, he asked the king to send troops immediately.

"Unless Lord Randyll can bring the army back from the Riverlands, or send troops from King's Landing." But then King's Landing will be empty.

"Should we talk about the king's wedding?" the queen said to them, which had been postponed for a long time.

"Lord Tyrell is now a prisoner on Dragonstone. If we don't welcome him back, how can the wedding be held?" Tyrion asked Cersei.

"A brother is like a father, Tyrion," Ser Kevan Lannister said. "Willas Tyrell will be in King's Landing to attend the king's wedding."

Tyrion realized that they must now tie the Tyrell family firmly to the ship. If Highgarden changes sides again, it will really be the Lannister family fighting alone.

It seems that Lord Tywin has made a decision long ago. Uncle Kevan will be his spokesperson no matter what the occasion. What Kevan said is what Lord Tywin said.

"Let's start talking about the wedding and put the damn war aside first," Earl Rowan said.

"I think the Prince of Dorne should have arrived in King's Landing soon." Prince Doran will attend the important seat of the Royal Council and at the same time avenge his sister Elia and her children. This is Tywin's promise to Dorne. Of course, before this, Princess Myrcella, the king's sister, had already entered into a marriage contract with Prince Trystane of Dorne.

Trading a dog and a marriage for Dorn's support was a bargain no matter how you thought about it.

But how sincere are they? Tyrion wasn't sure.

In his mind, if Stannis had taken the initiative to marry his daughter to Prince Doran's son, and was willing to offer the heads of Lord Tywin and the Mountain, Dorne would have been more satisfied.

"My lord, as far as I know, His Excellency the Prince seems to have sent his brother Prince Oberon here because of his weak legs and feet." Varys said.

"No matter who comes, my promise stands." Lord Tywin declared. He continued, "Has the crown been prepared for the Archbishop?"

"The craftsmen have sent the crown to the Great Cathedral, my lord," the bishop replied.

Lord Tywin nodded. "Do you have any other suggestions?"

Seeing everyone shaking their heads, he said, "Very good, let's end this meeting."

Your Excellencies will take their leave one by one.

"Tyrion, stay here." Lord Tywin stopped his son.

The little devil, who was about to turn around and leave, shook his head and sat down angrily. To be honest, he really didn't want to be alone with his father.

The queen, who had already stood up, also sat down after seeing her father calling Tyrion to stop.

Tywin glanced at her but said nothing.

When there were only three people left in the conference hall, the little devil, who was shaking his legs impatiently, finally asked, "Dear father, I wonder why you left me here?"

"As a father, don't I have the right to ask you to sit down?" Lord Tywin asked.

"Of course you do, but you have to forgive your dwarf son for sitting down for too long and his butt is numb."

Lord Tywin just said coldly, "As a Lannister, you have to watch your words and actions, Tyrion."

"Follow your instructions, father." His tone sounded perfunctory.

"Stop your thoughts of being a prostitute, your wedding will be before Xiao Qiao." Tywin reminded him, "I remember that the boy from Storm's End has a good relationship with you. In this case, why don't you write a letter and invite him to King's Landing? Come?"

"He won't betray Stannis. You should have known that when you wrote to him to make him the Lord of Storm's End. And now he is Stannis' son-in-law. In fact, I have always been curious about how you determined that he was dead." Tyrion thought that his father would not be able to distinguish between the dead and the living.

"You should ask the Sisters of Silence."

"If I marry Sansa, I will only be completely at odds with the Stark family. Why not use her to exchange for Jaime." Tyrion asked him.

"You took her virginity, and you are the son-in-law of Winterfell. If you can make her give birth to a child, Eddard Stark will have to admit it."

It would be strange if these Starks didn't cut him into pieces with swords at that time.

"I hope that the letter you wrote to that boy Kerr can explain the current situation." Lord Tywin continued.

"What?" Tyrion was a little confused for a while.

"Where do you think the Dothraki will land if they cross the sea?" Tywin asked him back.

"King's Landing?"

"Unless Stannis wants to abandon his castle or face the siege of Tyroshi and Ironborn alone." Tywin said sarcastically, "Tell him that if he doesn't want his greyscale wife to be captured by Ironborn as a concubine or become a slave of Dothraki, he should come to King's Landing with sincerity, otherwise they will face the enemies coming from the Narrow Sea alone."

"I hope he is a smart man, Tyrion. Don't be like his stupid father-in-law." Tywin stood up.

Tyrion saw Cersei sneering.
