Chapter 0982 Please Call Me Prime Minister

"The Regent has no right over Her Majesty. Mace Tyrell stood up and roared.

"That's not overpower, that's the law. Will said lightly.

"I propose to vote, Your Majesty. Mace Tyrell stared at Will.

"To vote, you have to go out first, you don't have the right to vote. Will and Mays looked at each other.

Tyrell the Littlefinger said, "Lord Mace, I suggest you go out first." It is true that the position of state adviser has not been announced to the Prime Minister in advance. At the very least, you have to ask us to explain the reasons to the Prime Minister. ”

"No need to say why. Will turned his gaze to Littlefinger, "The Seven Kingdoms have been in civil war for several times, King's Landing has changed hands several times, the common people and King's Landing have no food to eat, and the Riverland is the granary of the Seven Kingdoms, so you have made a compromise in order to solve the problem of eating." ”

The courtiers looked at each other, and the atmosphere was awkward again.

Littlefinger gave the two sides the stairs down, and who knew that Will didn't go down the stairs at all, but moved the stairs away.

"It has nothing to do with food, I am brave and loyal and contribute to the country. Mace Tyrell said coldly.

"Lord Mace, you are the Duke of Riverlands and a vassal of His Majesty, and you should not use this to demand more power. Otherwise, the king has the right to take back the territory of the Bend Lands and banish you. ”

"Lord Will. Randolph Tully said in a deep voice, "Her Majesty is here, she didn't say anything about Lord Mace, why are you so targeting our lord? King's Landing has no food, and it is not caused by us. ”

"The country is in trouble, you are the queen's vassals, shouldn't you take out your own grain? I am the prime minister of the seven countries, and now I will order the river bay land to donate two thousand carts of grain, who has an opinion. Will looked around at his ministers.

"Two thousand carts of grain?" Mace was already pale with anger, "Lord Will......"

"No, please call me Prime Minister. Will said lightly, motioning Mace Tyrell to look at the Hand of the King badge on his placket.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, I am no longer serving as a state adviser, and even if you send someone to invite me in the future, I will not come again. “

"You better focus on delivering food to King's Landing, for if I can't see food in a month, I'll fetch it myself. ”

"My lord, is this going to war with the Riverlands?" said Randolph Tully Horan to his feet.

Randolph Tully, one of the most dazzling military generals of the Seven Kingdoms.

"No, you're wrong, General Lan Dao, I'm not going to go to war with Riverland, any nobleman who doesn't respect the orders of the dynasty, I will go to war against him. ”

"That being the case, I now resign from the post of Minister of War. "Randolph Tully and Mace Tyrell stood side by side.

"Your Majesty, as soon as the Prime Minister returned, he was aggressive, forced the State Adviser to retreat, threatened the Minister of War, did not take the important ministers of the Imperial Council seriously, and had no respect for Her Majesty. The Count of Bukele was indignant.

"Who are you?" asked Will faintly.

"Your Excellency, he is the Minister of Intelligence, Bukele, the Earl of Stormlands. ”

"In addition to being able to go to the sea and be a fisherman, what kind of intelligence gathering does the Bukele family know? Count Bukele, get out!"

Bukele, a fiery former retainer of House Baratheon in the Stormlands, stood up and punched Will in the face.

"No!" In the exclamation of everyone, Will's head tilted slightly, and he caught Bukele's fist, pressed down, and pressed Bukele's hand on the table, followed by a flash of cold light, a knife appeared in Will's left hand, and with a whoosh, the knife pierced Bukele's palm and nailed his palm to the table.

"Ahh

The Imperial Minister's door was slammed open, and six Kingsguards rushed in, two of whom drew their swords and aimed them at Will. The other four guards of the Royal Forest pressed the hilt of their swords to protect Her Majesty Shireen first.

Will faced the two long swords pointed at him and smiled, "Sir Barristan, what do you say. “

Jaime and Arya walked in, silently. They walk without sound, not deliberately.

Sir Barristan is the captain of the Kingsguard.

"Put away your sword, two sirs. This is our Prime Minister. Barristan said.

The two Kingsguard glanced at each other and slowly withdrew their swords.

The two Kingsguard Will didn't know each other, and the hostility in their eyes was no different from Bukele and Metz.

It is not the first time that the Imperial Forest Iron Guard has dared to draw his sword in a meeting of the Imperial Ministers, many times, but it is the first time that he has pointed his sword at the Prime Minister.

"Someone, escort Lord Bukele back first. Barristan said.

Will grabbed the handle of the knife and spun it around, drawing the blade. Bukele fainted.

Will looked at Randolph Tully, who was blue and angry, at Mace Tyrell, who was sweating coldly on his forehead and without sharpness in his eyes, and at Her Majesty, who was a frightened little girl.

The rest of the courtiers had frightened faces, and their eyes wandered.

Will estimated that these people didn't know how many times they had talked about him behind their backs, and they must have thought that Will would not dare to teach people in front of Her Majesty. The Bukele family, the Randolph Tully family, and the Mace Tyrell family, all of which have only heard of Will's power, but have not personally tasted the powerful old nobles. They have money, people, and background.

Bukele was carried out, and several Kingsguards guarded Shireen Baratheon.

Will said, "Sir Barristan, please escort Her Majesty back to rest first, and here we will continue our meeting." ”

"Yes, Prime Minister. "Barristan Selmy escorted Her Majesty away, leaving behind two Kingsguards.

"Sir Jaime, this young lady, please go out with me. One of the Kingsguards said.

"Brother, you were a kid when I was the Kingsguard. Jaime laughed, "I want to see you get Master Mace and Lord Landau out before I go out." ”

"Sir Jaime, don't force me to draw my sword. Tie Wei said coldly.

"Your Excellency the Prime Minister has already said that Mace and Landau should go out first, why don't you listen? The Prime Minister didn't order us to go out first. Jaime grinned and said, "If you're going to draw a sword, I'm going to see if your sword is up to par." ”

Choke!

With a crisp sound of drawing his sword, Tie Wei's long sword was unsheathed, and then the whole person froze, and a narrow sword suddenly pressed against his throat, and his sword was just unsheathed.

Arya's Narrow Sword!

The two Kingsguard suddenly changed color.

Lan Dao was an iron-blooded general, but he finally couldn't help but change his face.

What a fast sword!

He didn't even see Arya's sword drawn, it was already at the guard's throat.

Will said, "Arya, it's a great sin to kill the Kingsguard here. ”

"Sir, put away your sword. Arya said coldly.

The Kingsguard slowly unsheathed his sword, then stepped away.

Arya recognized the Iron Guard's family crest, a crab biting on aquatic weeds, from the Tyrells' territory. It seems that they have been away from the Red Fort for a bit of a long time this time, and the political power system in the Red Fort is starting to turn sour.

Arya's eyes looked at her brother Bran, and there was a faint dissatisfaction in her eyes. Bran is the commander of the King's Landing garrison, shouldn't he be on Will's side?!

Bran didn't say a word, his face was cold and hard.

"The Minister of the Sea, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, the Chancellor of the Justice, the Chancellor of War, the Chancellor of Intelligence, the State Adviser, hehe!" Jaime smiled, he had been in the Red Keep for more than ten years, and he was very experienced in dealing with these people, these people were all scum, and there was hardly a good person to find. Like Barristan Salmi, who is famous all over the world, but he is also a brave and unscrupulous person, he is easily used by the city government, and he is relatively lacking in distinguishing right from wrong and seeing through the sinister heart.

"Jaime, Arya, you guys go out first. Will said.

"Yes, sir. "Jaime and Arya went out and stood outside the gate.

The two Kingsguard also stumbled, closed the door, and stood outside the gate.

As Randolph Tully and Mace Tyrell were about to leave, Will said, "Wait, two adults, I have a little question for you, including the two adults. ”

Will looked at Randolph Tully and Mace Tyrell, then at the ministers, and said, "Excuse me, everyone, am I still the Prime Minister of the Seven Nations?"

"Yes, sir. Little Finger said immediately.

"Of course, don't joke about it. Allister Florence laughed.

"Prime Minister of the Seven Kingdoms, Lord Regent, Commander of the Great Wall of Desperation, Duke of Dragonstone, until Her Majesty's order is announced, you are of course our Prime Minister of the Seven Kingdoms. Davos Seaworth said.

Will looked at Bran Stark, and Bran said, "Prime Minister, the King's Landing garrison is at your disposal. ”

Will's gaze returned to Randolph Tully and Mace Tyrell: "Two adults, do you recognize me as the Prime Minister of the Seven Kingdoms?"

This little question is actually very vicious, and if it is not, the consequences will be very serious, and if it is, the consequences will be very bad.

This is the confirmation of the supreme power, and once it is confirmed, it must be submitted. Not giving in is disobedience.

It's a problem that, no matter how you choose, it's going to be bad for Randolph and Mace, a small problem, but lethal enough.

"Yes, you are our Prime Minister. Randolph Tully said.

"I've never denied that, Prime Minister. Mace Tyrelll's confidence is clearly lacking. Mace Tyrell has troops, wealth, food, and reserves, but his guts are not matched by his wealth, status, and territory.

"Very well, since I am indeed the Prime Minister and Regent of the Seven Kingdoms, then, I now formally propose that Randolph Tully be stripped of his post as Minister of War, and raise my hand in favor. ”

Everyone looked at each other, and Allister was the first to raise his hand. He's gone to Will, and that's what he's supposed to do.

Littlefinger also raised his hand, then Bran Stark. Will also raised his hand, the captain of the Kingsguard was absent, had a bye, and the Sea Secretary Davos Seaworth did not raise his hand, indicating that he abstained.

This man of integrity considered Randolph Tully to be a military genius and had done nothing wrong since taking office.

Under Will's coercion, he refused to submit, and he abstained, which was opposed.

Finally, Will himself raised his hand: "Four votes in favor, one bye, one abstention, passed." Randolph Tully, please hand over all military matters to me within tomorrow. ”

"Yes, Prime Minister. Randolph Tully sneered.

"The second proposal, I propose to abolish the post of State Adviser, agrees with a show of hands. This time, Will was the first to raise his hand.

There were still four votes in favor and one abstention.

In this kind of game of the Imperial Council, which requires voting, you must have more than three votes of your own people. According to the law, three votes are the minimum requirement.

Will said, "Lord Mace, what else do you have to say?" ”

Mace snorted coldly and did not answer.

"Lord Mace, now I have once again decreed in the name of the Prime Minister that the Riverlands must deliver two thousand carts of grain to King's Landing within a month, do you accept the order or not?"

A cold sweat broke out on Mace's forehead, but he still had his family's dignity to protect, and he strode out. Randolph Tully immediately followed.

Will said, "Commander Bran Stark. ”

"Yes, Prime Minister. ”

"I command you to have the garrison watch over the residences of Lord Randolph Tully and Mace Tyrell and not allow them to leave King's Landing. ”

"Yes, Prime Minister. Bran Stark said.

Landau and Mays stood together, Mays turned around and said angrily, "Prime Minister, you don't allow us to leave King's Landing, how can you transport two thousand carts of grain?"

"Raven, Raven Letter is much faster than you rode back. Send your ravens, my lords, for if we do not see two thousand carts of grain in a month, they have violated the laws of the land, and I will have to hand them over to the Imperial Court for a public trial. Any great nobleman who disobeys his orders, I swear that I will punish him severely, and I will never give him a chance. ”

Randolph Tully's face turned pale, and Mace Tyrell pulled the door open and left angrily.

Bran Stark immediately stood up and shouted, "Sir Ward." ”

The door opened, and a golden-robed man walked in: "Commander, please command." ”

"Send two teams of brothers to monitor the residences of Lord Mace and Lord Randolph around the clock, and order the entire city garrison that Lord Randolph and Lord Mace are not allowed to leave the city until the order is lifted. ”

"Yes, sir!"

Ward hurried away!

"Alright, ladies and gentlemen, let's have a formal meeting. Will smiled.

"Prime Minister, I heard that you have reduced all the nobles of Dorne to commoners?" Allister said cautiously.

"Not to be degraded to civilians, but to remove their privileges, we have retained much more land, houses and possessions than ordinary people. If, according to the custom of war, they are defeated, we can kill them all and confiscate all their property. But we didn't do that, and those who were able to be local governors were still able to do so. Dorne is so big, it needs a lot of local officials, and those who are good at trade can also do trade and rise again. Lord Allister, if you are defeated and taken prisoner by others, are you prepared to be exterminated, and then accept my merciful ways for the nobles of Dorne?"

Allister stammered, speechless.

Will knows where these people's hearts are? But they can't grasp the point, who can blame it? Everyone here is a nobleman, and Littlefinger wants to go one step further to become a big nobleman like the Duke, that is his ideal, but Will has abolished the aristocracy in Dorne, and the fox is dead, and this is where these guys are worried about their hearts.

The world wants to progress, those who go along will prosper, and those who go against will die, and Will knows that the best way to do it in troubled times is to sharpen the knife faster.

Even Littlefinger was suspicious of Will's approach, so there must be many supporters of Randolph and Mace. As the news spreads that Landau and Mace have been removed from their duties and placed under surveillance of their residences, even more intense conflicts are bound to erupt in the throne hall tomorrow.

But Will still has his own grievances to vent: "May I ask you, what about our former Minister of Intelligence, Lord Tyrion Lannister, and where has he gone?"

Before Will left King's Landing Red Keep, the Minister of Intelligence was Tyrion Lannister, whom he had specially arranged!
