Chapter 0883 - Political Situation, Lip Fighting, Murder Without Blood

"Lord Sebastian, did you pacify the Golden Knights?" Will said lightly.

Littlefinger immediately laughed and said, "Yes, Lord Will, I heard that Sebastian was extremely brave, led his family's army of a thousand, and when the Golden Knights came, he fled alone to the Crimson Mountains of Dorne to escape. ”

Sebastian was immediately furious: "I retreated at that time to preserve your majesty's strength. It is really stupid to force a battle when you know that you can't do it. ”

"It makes sense, since Sebastian is brave and strategic, it must be Sir Sebastian who fights against the strange ghosts under the fist peak of the ancestors outside the desperate Great Wall, burns the ghouls, leads the army to see death as home, takes the lead, and does not retreat from the battle. ”

"No, no, no!" Littlefinger hurriedly said, "Lord Will, you are mistaken, under the Ancestral Fist Peak, you fought to the death against the strange ghosts, and first ordered your own warriors to retreat, and the one who led his own guards to fight to the death was Sir Sandor Clegane. ”

"Oh, it turned out to be Sir Sandor Clegane, may I ask if Sir Sandor Clegan was killed in battle, or did he retreat?"

"Sir Sandor Clegane was killed at the foot of the Fist of the Ancestors, along with ninety-nine giants and two thousand horsemen. ”

"Oh, then the bones of the brave and loyal Sebastian must have put them away, and their sacrifice must have been rewarded by the kingdom, Sir Sandor Clegane, has he been given the honor of being a loyal earl?"

"No, Lord Will. In order to resist the invasion of the ghosts and ghouls, they died in the ice and snow of the Ghost Forest, without receiving any honor or posthumous official position. ”

Will's face gradually changed, his eyes were sharp, he looked at Sebastian, and said coldly: "Lord Petyr Berish, why do the kings of a country and the prime minister of a kingdom ignore those warriors who died in battle, and are so cold-blooded? What are those powerful ministers around His Majesty the King busy doing? Are they also too busy in the ice and snow on the front line?"

"Back to Lord Will, after the Prime Minister reconciled with Daenerys Targaryen in King's Landing, the Golden Knights left King's Landing and crossed the Narrow Sea, the Prime Minister and Daenerys flew to the Great Wall, rode griffins and dragons to fight the ghosts and ghouls, they killed all the ghosts and ghouls who came to invade, rescued more than 300 warriors who were scattered by the ghosts, and on the Ancestral Fist Peak, they rescued the giant leader Marg, the general Daisy Mormont, and several sentinels on the Ancestral Fist Peak. ”

"It turns out that the Prime Minister is also fighting on the front line, shouldn't he be in Winterfell with a stove, drinking sweet wine, eating barbecue, managing government affairs, and using his mouth to visit a brothel in his spare time?"

"Back to Lord Will, the Prime Minister did not do so, and after quelling the invasion of the vanguard of the Strangers, he went to the East Sea to conquer the Skags on the island of Skagus, for the Skags threaten our trade routes between East Sea and Braavos. ”

"Oh, since the Prime Minister is so tired outside, then presumably the ministers around His Majesty are all bleeding and sweating for the country and doing their best?"

"No, Lord Will, you are wrong, His Majesty's side is a gathering of defeated southern nobles, who hold their own noble status, bully the king when he is young, seek official positions and status by the king's side and seek rewards, the defense of the strangers in the north, the trade with the other side of the Narrow Sea, the unyielding Dorne, and the city of King's Landing, which has become more than half of the ruins, they all turn a blind eye, are indifferent, never contribute, and do not want to forge ahead! In their hearts, the warriors who fought abroad, were loyal to the country, and did their best should die, and the glory and wealth, the high officials, and the glory and power should all be theirs. As long as they stay with His Majesty the King, drink wine, eat meat, and have fun, they are already the greatest credit to the kingdom. ”

Little Finger's words, every sentence was like a knife, and every word was bloody, which made Sebastian and the others stunned, and the soldiers who were fighting outside all heard their blood gushing up, their blood was gushing, and they were angry. The hot-blooded young men of the northern border and the young soldiers of the garrison were all full of resentment in their hearts, and their hearts were all towards Will and his bloody soldiers, and their hearts were hostile to Sebastian, a group of defeated nobles in important official positions.

Words are like knives, and there is no blood in murder, but that's it!

The savage king, Mance Red, and Mr. Najo Dimitis, these scheming and wise men, learned the horror of this thin Chancellor of the Exchequer.

Will looked at His Majesty the King and said lightly: "Your Majesty, is your ideal of governing the country to raise idlers, belittle warriors, make every effort to promote unmeritorious old ministers, and arrogantly suppress bloody soldiers?"

Her Majesty Shireen was originally a simple girl, but when she was forced to ask by Lord Will, she suddenly opened her mouth and was speechless.

"Fearless Sir Barristan Selmy, you are a royal minister, and you do not assist His Majesty in the administration of the government, select talents, and let His Majesty be surrounded by a bunch of waste. Do you only know that the sword is by the king's side, and that you are a foolish swordsman? You are the only one who has the power to speak directly to the king and avoid the punishment of the law. The former Prime Minister does not have such privileges, but what have you done? Don't you feel ashamed of His Majesty Stannis?

Barristan Selmy was a fierce and upright man, strong in martial arts and loyal, but politically lacking. His privileges were the first of the most important ministers in the imperial court, and he did not take advantage of them.

Will's words were heavy, especially in front of so many jazz generals. He blamed not only the king, but also the captain of the Kingsguard.

Barristan's face turned blue and white, he regarded himself as more honorable than heaven, but he was so despised by Lord Will. In the face of unbearableness, he felt that what Lord Will said was true, and this was a terrible thing.

If Lord Will is right, how can a mentally clean man like Barristan who has no honor and no stain on his own merits?

Choke!

Barristan Selmi's sword was unsheathed, and with a shout, he slashed at his own neck.

Bite!

Arya's narrow sword slammed into Barristan Selmi's sword, skewing its blade. Brienne and Hale both pounced, grabbed Barristan Selmy's hands, and the two took the sword from Barristan's hand.

Everyone was shocked!

Will looked at Barristan with a dead face, and said lightly: "Sir, you are quite clean when you die, who will protect the young king? You have already made a mistake once, and you almost made a big mistake just now." Of all the ministers around His Majesty, the one I trust the most is you, Sir Barristan. It is easy for you to kill yourself, but where can I find such an upright and loyal warrior as you to protect the king? Is it your honor, or is it the life of His Majesty and the great plans of the country?"

Barristan knelt down on one knee and was covered in a cold sweat: "Your Excellency, Barristan is stupid, please teach me!"

"Protect Your Majesty, participate in government affairs, speak up, and for the incompetent and incompetent, even if the king appoints them, you must not agree, this is the duty of the captain of the Royal Guard. ”

"Yes, Lord Will!"

Will glanced at the audience, not angry, and said lightly: "Sir Sebastian, if I were you, who only lost the battle and had no merit, but dared to ask for a high-ranking official in front of His Majesty the King, and sat in the position of Minister of Sea, then may I ask, where is your navy? How many warships have you built, how do you arrange the manpower to patrol the sea area? How do you patrol and defend the sea area and assist the kingdom's trade from pirate attacks?"

Sebastian stammered, speechless.

"I'm like you, but if you still have a little blood, you can deceive yourself, you have no merit, and you have committed suicide in shame!"

Sebastian's face was as pale as snow!

Choke!

Will drew the sword from the savage king Mance Red, and threw it in front of Sebastian: "If you kill yourself in public, I still respect you for being a man! If you don't dare, you will automatically resign from the post of sea lord." It is ridiculous that an incompetent fellow who doesn't even have a single warship dares to speak out and bully His Majesty the King when he is young and soft-hearted, and seeks the high position of Minister of the Seven Maritime Affairs!"

Chapter 0883 Lip Tongue Sword Murder Bloodless Knife

Sebastian's face turned from white to blue.

He glared at Will, unable to breathe.

Choose one of the two, either prove your courage and commit suicide, or voluntarily resign as the Minister of the Sea.

Whatever he chose, he was ruined.

If he doesn't make a choice, he will be ruined.

That is, if you have no courage or talent, you will try to be in a high position, and you will not escape the fate of winning.

Will is already in control of the situation, he blames the king, rebukes the captain of the Kingsguard, who dares to stop his sharpness?

It's just that there is also a danger that after Sebastian really commits suicide, some nobles in the Stormlands will plant a seed of revenge in their hearts for Will's grievances, and once they have the opportunity, this seed will take root and sprout.

But Will no longer considered the potential resentment that would come with doing so.

Today it is necessary to take control of government and enlist the support of the righteous and hot-blooded knights in the Stormlands.

No one thought that Lord Will would force Sebastian to kill himself.

Just now he scolded Barristian for committing suicide, and later scolded Barristian for committing suicide as a coward, ignoring the overall situation and not taking responsibility, and in the blink of an eye, he forced Sebastian to commit suicide openly, and threw the long sword at Sebastian's feet.

It seems that Sebastian was forced to commit suicide, but in fact, he was asked to voluntarily resign from the important position of sea minister. Even if Sebas doesn't resign, he can't help it. Everyone could understand that Sebastian had no merit except for defeat, but he had become a major minister of the Imperial Council, who knew nothing about the navy and maritime defense, had no achievements, and had not made any improvements, and was actually the Minister of the Seven Kingdoms.

As the Prime Minister of the Seven Kingdoms, Lord Will naturally has the right to immediately strip him of his official position.

Who would dare to say anything when the young girl, the king, was reproached by Lord Will?

The eyes of more than a hundred people in the audience were fixed on Sebastian's body, and every gaze was a whip.

In the moment when it was so quiet that it was suffocating, Littlefinger grinned and said, "Lord Will, don't let a coward like Sebastian come out and be embarrassed, if his weakness and shamelessness can be made into weapons, the strangers and ghouls in the north will definitely be defeated by him effortlessly, and they will not dare to invade our human territory again." I really didn't understand that the Ellor family is also a well-known century-old nobleman, with a deep background, but they have cultivated such a Sebastian as the patriarch. ”

A bloodless knife is more useful than a bloody knife!

Littlefinger's chuckle and words made Sebastian's face purple and red, and his eyes, which were already short of breath and difficult to breathe, suddenly became blurry, and the black shadow shook, as if he heard the sound of his heart exploding, but in fact, there was no sound, Sebastian's body began to shake, and then he fell.

When people rushed over to look, his eyes were round, his face was purple and red, and the green tendons on his neck were protruding, and he died of anger on the spot.

Will and Littlefinger's tongue knives kill a major political enemy without shedding a drop of blood.

When Sebastian was hurriedly sent into the Bachelor's Tower, the atmosphere in the hall seemed very subtle this time.

Will said: "Your Majesty, I would like to know how many courtiers you have rewarded, and have you arranged all the officials at all levels of the state?"

Her Majesty Shireen did not know how to answer, her rewards were all done under the leadership of the Minister of State, Allister Florent, and the little girl only knew one thing, the nobles she agreed to reward were all vassals loyal to the House of Baratheon. They had been loyal to the Baratheon family in the past, and this time they came thousands of miles away to swear loyalty, and the little girl didn't think there was anything wrong, so she sealed it.

Will said, "Your Majesty, I am going to exercise the power of regent today, do you agree?

Her Majesty Shireen glanced at Lady Caitlin on the side, and Lady Caitlin nodded slightly, so Her Majesty Shireen said, "Lord Will, you are the regent I appointed, please help me correct my mistakes." ”

Will said, "Yes, Your Majesty!"

He walked up to dozens of nobles in the south, looked over one by one, carefully looked at the faces of these people, first had a rough judgment of foolishness, and then said: "Ladies and gentlemen, I have no objection to your allegiance to the royal family, nor to your official position, but now is a period of war in the country, and no one can say that you are in an important position without merit. I want to ask you, who wants to fight and make meritorious contributions, so that their merits and family honors can match your current official position?"

"Lord Will, I would like to follow you and make meritorious deeds!" a young knight stepped forward and knelt down on one knee in front of Will.

"Who is the general?"

"I am Roland Storm, the younger brother of Sir Bryce Cullen, the Kingsguard. ”

"You're an illegitimate child?"

"Yes, Lord Will. ”

"Your brother Bryce Cullen is the Kingsguard, so who is his Nightsong City passed on?"

"Pass it to me, Lord Will. ”

"Okay, Sir Roland Storm of Nightsong City, I thank you for your willingness to follow me, so who is willing to follow me, listen to my orders, we will soon start a war for the unification of the Seven Kingdoms, attack Dorne, and urgently need generals and sirs who are familiar with the situation in the south to charge into battle and make achievements. Will swept his gaze over the southern nobles, "Do you choose to continue to cower in Winterfell with His Majesty, or do you choose to draw your sword and follow me to attack Dorne?"

Boom!

A loud sword was unsheathed, and dozens of southern knights drew their long swords, held them in both hands, raised them above their heads, and knelt down on one knee, claiming that they were willing to follow Lord Will to attack Dorne and make great achievements.

Will nodded and said lightly: "Very good, I am going to cancel the official position you got before, everyone will be treated equally, first seek battle merits, and then talk about rewards, who do you have any opinions?"

Everyone spoke in unison, strictly obeying the Prime Minister's order, and there was no objection!

Since then, the Southern party that Allister has worked so hard to run has collapsed, and the two leaders, one thrown into the dungeon, the other to death.

Just as Lord Will was intimidating the southern aristocracy, a pair of wonderful eyes fell on his face at the crack in the window of the corridor outside the hall.

From beginning to end, the dragon battle in this hall fell into the eyes of these wonderful eyes, and the words and swords were all heard in the ears of this beauty, this person was Sansa Stark, who was quietly transforming!

In a short period of time, in the halls of Winterfell, the power of the kingdom and the control of the courtiers were all in the hands of Lord Will. Will's prestige and power extended from the north to the south, the Riverlands, the Storm Lands, the Lords, the Valleys, the West, the Riverlands, the North, the Great Wall, and no one dared to go against its edge.

Next, gather southern forces, famous generals, and attack Dorne!
