Quiescence.

Robert sat in a high chair at one end of the room, while the Queen sat with the three princes and princesses on the low bed facing the King. Cersei has her arms around Messira and Tommen on her left and right hands, while Joffrey, the eldest brother, is too old to hide in her mother's arms anymore, so she can only sit next to her sister.

The room is silent, but the atmosphere makes people feel like the mountains are dangerous and overwhelming. Robert silently looked at his legal wife, who was in the same bed, and Cersei glared at her husband without showing any weakness...... Even Tomman and Messira, who had no idea what was happening, noticed something unusual, but were too frightened by the atmosphere to ask more.

"What are you doing here. The woman asked coldly, glancing at the warhammer that the man had placed on the low table in his hand, if memory serves, it was this weapon that Robert used to hammer Rhaegar to death on the banks of the Trident, and he should not have won at all. "Still with weapons?"

Robert snorted and laughed: "I was going to the martial arts training ground to warm up, and I suddenly wanted to come to see my children on the way, so I brought them over, can't I." ”

This is the residence of the heirs of the royal family, Cersei has lived here since Robert returned from the battlefield in the valley, if Robert summons her, she will definitely excuse herself on the grounds of physical discomfort and other reasons, but today her husband came directly to the door and broke in, but she couldn't avoid it.

Outside the door, five Kingsguards, in addition to Jaime and Barristan, and dozens of Red Keep guards loyal to the king, were heavily armed, and hundreds of Lannister's red-robed guards watched each other.

The red-robed guards were paid by the Lannisters, and their families lived in the West, controlled by the Duke of Tywin, so if anyone tried to disadvantage their young lady or son, they would rise up against them...... But the situation is different when Robert personally brings people over: the king is the owner of the Red Keep and the head of the royal family, and he runs to the residence of the prince and princess to see his wife and children.

Not to mention that he didn't get a clear order to attack the king, even if he did, with Robert almost all the royal guards and his own prestige, it would be difficult for the red-robed army commanded by a woman Cersei to gain the upper hand.

Cersei frowned: "Don't be weird, if there's anything, just say it." ”

"Am I yin and yang?" Anger appeared in Robert's eyes, and his tone was not good: "Shouldn't you have said something to me, the rumors about the scandal between you and Jaime in the city have been spreading all these days since I left, and you didn't take the initiative to explain to me after I came back for so many days, but just hid around the children...... Want to wait until I'm drunk and forget about it?"

"Explain, what do you want me to explain?" replied Cersei in a sharp voice, "It's just that your Chancellor of the Exchequer who killed the Prime Minister and defected made up some old-fashioned scandal in retaliation, and then the idle untouchables in the market were happily spreading around, and you want me to explain? Why don't you first explain the dozens or hundreds of wild seeds you left outside the Red Keep?"

"How can there be so many!" said Robert, whose face turned bloody, and he found himself speechless, "I'm bastard, but I didn't bring them into the Red Keep!"

"What do you mean? If your brother with a different surname who is the Prime Minister is on business, he will tell you that he has caught all the rumor-mongers! You have no proof and you didn't have me and Jaime in bed, but you came to me with a rage and asked me to explain? How can I prove that I didn't do these things?"

Robert stared at Cersei for a moment, not continuing to speak. He came to question him face to face today, and it was a personal play outside of Ed's plan, which was a temptation. If Cersei admits it, Eddard's plan is pointless...... Now she doesn't admit it, and it doesn't matter, just do what the prime minister wants.

After all, he really couldn't produce any evidence.

"What, nothing more to say?" Cersei sneered, "Then what are you doing here, do you want me to open your mouth and drive you away?" ”

"I'm staying in my own house, and it's your turn to chase me?"

It would have been normal for the other party to jump up in anger and slap her, but at this moment, the drunkard king's rare calm appearance in the chair made Cersei uneasy, and she hugged Messira and Tommen, and asked vigilantly, "What do you want?"

"It's nothing. Robert said with a blank face: "It's just that I suddenly found that there are too many people in the Red Keep Nelanist, and it's time to cut some." ”

"Cut some?" Cersei was shocked, but a sneer appeared on her face: "Dream, don't even think about it without my consent!"

"Which law," said Robert, without arguing, but said coldly, "the king wants to replace some of the servants and guards in his castle, and he wants the woman to agree?"

Cersei was also speechless, just as Robert was helpless as long as she didn't admit the rumors just now—even if she owed her father Tywin a lot of money, even if he could only rely on the Lannisters to stabilize his country...... But if Robert is determined to tear his skin and make personnel transfers in the Red Keep, he has no right to stop it as queen.

After all, he is the king of Westeros, he is the king of the Seven Kingdoms, and he is the head of this family.

She clenched her fists and resisted weakly: "I originally proposed that there were not enough people around me to serve, but you said that I would be able to figure it out by myself." ”

"That's right, I said that. I promise you, I'll give you as many people as you want next, and if you're happy, fill the room to the brim. ”

A calm Robert scared Cersei, it didn't seem like something the drunkard could say at all - it was Ed who made him say that! She instantly figured out the key, she didn't have many chips now, and if she was lucky enough to make a concession, she would immediately lose everything, and she decided to stick to the line: "Without me opening my mouth, none of the Lannisters outside will leave." ”

"Yes, twice as many garrisons will come in and invite them, and it is up to them to see if your men are willing to walk out of the Red Keep or be carried out of the Red Keep. ”

Cersei narrowed her eyes, Robert, do you think that's your guy!

"I'm very proud, I think I'm going to shoot myself in the foot, right?" Robert smiled and dispelled the woman's illusions: "Don't think about it, the commander of the garrison has been replaced by Ned's captain of the guard Jory this morning - I almost forgot to say that even if I hadn't changed, Genos Slint wouldn't have helped you, but yesterday he personally sent someone to send a letter to tell you the truth, telling you all about your plan." ”

Cersei soaked her clothes with a cold sweat on her back, and she knew that she must not show her debunked heart at this time: "What plan? I don't understand what you're talking about, it's just the dying throes of a fallen idiot, trying to pull some big guys into the water, like Littlefinger...... Have you drunk too much, and you will believe what others say?"

"Alright, even if I wronged you, let's stop arguing meaninglessly here, sit comfortably for a while, and wait for the people of the garrison to come. ”

The room was silent again, but Cersei's mood never returned to where it had been a moment.

Lost, and after thinking about it, Cersei was disillusioned. She suddenly realized that when Robert had just visited, she had not ordered the red-robed guards to attack him first, but had let him carry a war hammer into the house...... At that moment, she had already lost the opportunity to turn the tables. Her only chance was to take advantage of the fact that the garrison had not arrived, and to attack directly while her red-robed guards still had the advantage in numbers, kill Robert and quickly take control of the castle and put Joffrey on the Iron Throne...... But now, there are only Robert and three children in the house, and if he acts rashly, he is afraid that the war hammer that killed Rhaegar will fall on his head in the next second.

"What do you want?" she asked, suppressing her inner activity, "I want my life?"

"Quite simply, I want to prove your innocence. "You're all around me, and you can't get a second man, especially if you're a brother, and have another child with you." If it's still blonde, then it's all a misunderstanding, and if it's brunette......"

"Put me under house arrest and force me to give birth to you like a sow!?" Cersei glared, "Don't even think about it, even if I die, I won't let you succeed!"

"It's a bit strange for you to say this, as a husband, I ask my legal wife to give me another child, what position do you have to refuse, or even force me to die?" Robert's expression gradually changed from indifferent to fierce: "It's okay for you to refuse, confess your crime in public, admit your adultery with Jaime, and then let your father write off the royal debts and pay a ransom large enough...... Four or five million golden dragons are enough, you can pay it, okay, you can take your brother back to Kaiyan City to play as much as you want, if you can't pay it, you can honestly give birth to a child for me!"

The Lannisters can rely on nothing more than Tywin's prowess and the vast wealth of Castle Rock, but with their sons and daughters in the hands of the enemy, no one can compete with the whole of Westeros...... Robert's plan is completely invincible.

It wasn't an idea a drunkard could come up with, and Cersei was drenched in sweat behind her back. By staying in King's Landing, ignoring the rumors, she was gambling that she might kill Robert...... Now that she's lost her bet, no one should want to openly confront a living, recognized king of the Seven Kingdoms in King's Landing. At the very beginning of the rumors, he should have fled back to Kaiyan City...... She began to tremble as she put her arms around Tomman and Messella, and then quickly discovered a key question: "What about Jaime and what did you do to him?"

"Guess what?"

"You've got him!"

Cersei let go of her arms around the two children and stood up, rushed to Robert and grabbed him by the neck: "If you dare to hurt my brother's hair, I will never spare you! I will hide the knife in the bed and stab you in the stomach when you touch the bed!"

"Then I'll tie you up while I'm you!" If I don't do it first, this woman dares to ask for hardship, Robert's anger that has been suppressed for a long time finally broke out, he grabbed Cersei's hair and slapped her, so strong that she was directly slapped to the ground: "Don't think I care about that thing between your legs, even if every man in the Seven Kingdoms wants to you, then I won't be included! If it weren't for Eddard Stark's strong persuasion of me, the heads of the two of you would have been on the tip of the gun outside the Red Keep, which round you are still presumptuous here!"

The Thunderous Fury of the King of the Seven Kingdoms was so terrifying that Joffrey craned his neck and didn't dare to say a word, and Tomman was so frightened that everyone was stupid...... Only Messira rushed forward crying and hugged Robert, stopping him from continuing to beat Cersei: "Father, don't be angry, Mother is just talking angry, she always talks angry, you know!"

Robert stood still, gasping for breath, reaching out and stroking Mithella's hair. Of the three children, he liked the most this daughter, kinder and more polite than his brother Joffrey, braver and stronger than his brother Tomman, who inherited almost all of her mother's beauty without the stupidity and neuroticism of Cersei...... If it weren't for his daughter, Robert would have almost wanted to make her heir. But as soon as he saw her beautiful blonde hair, and thought that it was most likely not his daughter, Robert felt like a knife.

"Okay, I know. Robert trembled in pain, and pushed away the Messiras as gently as he could: "Sit well, wait for the garrison to come, and this mess will be over......"

There was an argument and shouting outside the door, and then the door was kicked open, and Jaime Lannister burst in with red eyes, and saw Cersei on her knees with her face covered, and Messila crying to stop Robert.
