Game of Thrones: Knight of Glory
Chapter 360 Cersei’s Road to Repentance
When Lightning King Beric Dondarrion and Red Monk Thoros left, they also took away the letter that Lind gave to Stannis, and also took away a pardon to prevent them from encountering certain nobles on the road. intercepted by the army.
Different from the Brotherhood Without Banners we learned about in the previous life, the Brotherhood Without Banners formed by Berry and Thoros this time is not only aimed at the mad dogs under Tywin, but also against all the nobles who point their swords at the common people. Many nobles from the Land and the North were also captured or killed by them. This is why when Duke Tywin issued a bounty order to the Brotherhood Without Banners, the hostile nobles from the Riverlands and the North also offered bounties. Order to accumulate bounty.
It is no exaggeration to say that the Brotherhood Without Banners can be regarded as the public enemy of the nobles. They will be attacked wherever nobles and noble private troops are stationed. However, the reason why they are still able to survive and have not been wiped out is that except In addition to their own abilities, what is more important is that they have received help and cover from ordinary civilians.
However, as the war ended and peace returned to the Riverlands, farmers began to rebuild their homes. At this time, if someone shouts and kills, it will definitely arouse the resentment of the common people. In this way, the Brotherhood Without Banners will lose their ability to exist. My biggest reliance so far.
Once there are no lower-level civilians to protect them, they will be quickly surrounded and suppressed by the nobles of the Seven Kingdoms, just like the Kingswood Brotherhood.
Therefore, even without Linde's proposal, they would probably have taken the initiative to request to go to the Great Wall of Despair.
After Berry and Soros left, there were no more visitors. This made Lind feel strange, because in his opinion, let alone other people, the Red Viper should take the initiative to meet him. Only In this way, the Red Viper can ensure that this trip to King's Landing can complete its revenge.
However, Red Viper obviously had other plans. Not only did it not take the initiative to meet with Linde to discuss its revenge plan, it even sent someone to inform him.
"I guess Prince Oberon is worried that you won't support him in revenge against Lord Tywin." After Lind casually mentioned this matter the next day, Sansa thought of the reason very astutely and replied.
"Why does he think so? Did I say that I would not interfere in the internal affairs of the Seven Kingdoms?" Linde asked.
"But you also said that no battle can affect the preparations for the war against the White Walkers on the Wall," Sansa explained: "Duke Tywin plays an important role in stabilizing the situation in the entire Seven Kingdoms. If Prince Oberon Revenge against Lord Tywin will inevitably lead to another disturbance in the already calm situation. When the time comes, you will definitely step in as a witness to the peace agreement to prevent the situation from becoming chaotic. In this case..."
"Why do you think Lord Tywin is important?" Lind couldn't help but smile, interrupted Sansa, and suddenly blurted out: "All mortals die, and Tywin is just a mortal. His death will not have any impact on him." The current situation has had too great an impact.”
Hearing Lind's words, Sansa's eyes lit up slightly, as if she had thought of something, but she did not continue talking. Instead, she asked Lind if she could go out for a walk. Lind asked her to bring a team of the Chosen Sons with her, although With the arrival of the Tyrell family, the situation in King's Landing has stabilized and public security has improved a lot, but there are still many dangers lurking in King's Landing, so you have to be careful.
After Sansa left, Lind went to the courtyard where the Sisters of Redemption rested and visited Cersei.
It has to be said that Cersei's willpower is much tougher than that of ordinary people. It is enough to make even a battle-hardened warrior bow his head during the Sisters of Redemption confession ceremony, but it still did not make Cersei lower her noble head.
"I told you a long time ago that you are a scourge. You should have been dealt with when that stupid pig Robert made you a knight!" Cersei leaned tightly against the corner of the bed and wrapped the blanket He held his body, curled up into a ball, his lips trembled on his pale face, his eyes were full of anger, he stared at Linde and gritted his teeth.
Lind picked up a chair next to him, moved it to Cersei's bedside, and said: "The confession ceremony used by the Redemption Sisters yesterday was a sin confession. Anyone who enters the Redemption Temple Sisters must accept this kind of confession." The confession ceremony will not end until she fully confesses the evil things she has done."
Cersei gritted her teeth and said, "I have nothing to regret."
"If you really don't have anything to repent of, then you won't look like this now, but will talk to me like a normal person." Lind looked at Cersei and said: "The Sister of Redemption's Confession Ceremony It will amplify those things that make you feel guilty hidden in your heart. Maybe you didn't feel guilty when you did that thing, and you won't think you were wrong when you think about it afterwards, but in fact, in your heart, you may not feel guilty. Your soul has already made a judgment about the right and wrong of that matter, and has developed feelings of guilt, but these feelings of guilt will be hidden deep in your heart and may not come out for the rest of your life.”
As he spoke, Lind stood up and picked up a smoker placed on the table not far away and placed it next to Cersei's bed.
"Take it away, take it away! I am the Queen Mother, and I order you to take it away!" Cersei seemed to have seen something extremely terrifying, squeezing hard into the corner, wishing she could squeeze herself into the wall. Go inside.
Lind did not pay attention to Cersei's shouting, but said to himself: "The incense used in the incense burner is made through a special secret method. The core raw material is the oil infiltrated from the hair of an animal in the Essos continent. . It can release the hidden guilt deep in people's hearts, allowing people to see what happened that caused the guilt, and constantly repeat the fantasy they saw, stimulating the user's fear, and as the As the number of times you use it increases, this fear will continue to accumulate and will not weaken. If you never truly regret the wrong things you have done, your mind will be completely washed away by fear, and by then you will become. A fool, yes, not Queen Cersei, but Cersei the fool.”
"No, my father would not allow you to do this," Cersei said tremblingly.
"Don't you understand yet? When Lord Tywin made those promises, you were just a pawn in his eyes that could be discarded at will." Lind looked at Cersei's unwillingness to believe it and continued: "Jaime has promised to go back and inherit Casterly Rock City. Duke Tywin hopes that his heir can manage the Lannister family business without being affected. But your influence on Jaime is too great, and it is all a bad influence. , even the cause of this war is because of the scandals between you and Jaime. What do you think Duke Tywin will think of you? Will he still think that you are his good daughter? I think the person who wants you to die the most right now may be. Not your enemies, but your relatives, your closest relatives.”
"No, no!" Cersei is stupid most of the time, but if the matter is related to her own interests, then she will be smart from time to time, just like now.
Although she didn't want to believe what Lind said in her heart, she couldn't find any reason to refute it, because Lind's analysis just now inadvertently said one thing, that is, after Tywin entered the Red Keep, he would When she was incarcerated, she had said that he wished she was the one who died, not Kevan.
At that time, she just regarded Tywin's words as angry words, but now after listening to Lind's analysis, she felt more and more that Tywin really wanted her to die, and in order to avoid getting his hands dirty, he deliberately killed her in advance. Give it to Linde, and use Linde's hand to kill her.
For a moment, the fear of death made her give up her dignity and pride. She rushed to Linde and hugged Linde's arm. She squeezed Linde's arm with her breasts. She changed her attitude from before. With a look of hatred, he wanted to pray to Linde.
However, Linde directly took his hand out of her arms, then pinched her chin and said: "You can't even seduce Lord Ed, why do you think you can seduce me? To be honest, I really feel sorry for James Mu feels worthless. He risked breaking up with me last night to sneak in here to save you, but what about you? You can trade your body with others casually. What is the difference between this and a prostitute? ? No, there is still a difference, that is, your name and identity will make some people more excited."
"Neither you nor Eddard Stark are men." Cersei could see that there was no emotion in Lind's eyes when he looked at her, as if he were looking at a piece of wood. She shook her head hard in embarrassment and broke away. Linde's hand returned to the bed, he looked at Linde coldly and gritted his teeth.
Linde smiled, said nothing, stood up, turned and walked out of the room.
"Increase the dose and don't stop in the middle. She must complete the confession ceremony before the wedding." Lind did not shy away from letting Cersei hear his decision, and directly addressed the several people responsible for the confession ceremony guarding the door. Sister of Redemption ordered.
So, just as Lind finished speaking, he heard Cersei yelling loudly in the room, like a shrew on the street.
However, no matter how loud she yelled, it was useless. After hearing Lind's instructions, several Redemption Sisters entered the room, and then heard Cersei's begging for mercy, which finally turned into screams.
It's a pity that the houses in the entire courtyard are specially built and have sound insulation effect. As long as you leave this courtyard, no matter how loud Cersei screams, you can't hear it elsewhere.
Lind just planned to let Cersei experience the first ritual after entering the Redemption Temple in advance, and did not really want Cersei to complete the confession ceremony within a few days, but yesterday she heard Patchface's prophetic song Finally, he felt that some things that were destined to happen might happen again. In this case, Cersei's role became a little subtle.
If Joffrey is really dead, then Cersei, as the Queen Mother, will not be able to go to the Redemption Temple in a short period of time. Her role as supervisor of the country will not be automatic until the next heir to the Iron Throne completes the inheritance ceremony. Cancel.
Therefore, Lind must let Cersei complete the most basic confession ceremony in the trial ceremony before the wedding.
This kind of confession ceremony cannot reshape her character, who she was in the past, and who she will be in the future, but it can change her beliefs, and she will become an extremely devout believer of the Seven Gods in a short period of time.
As long as he becomes a devout believer of the Seven Gods, then as the chosen one of the Seven Gods, he can have a direct influence on Cersei, so that Cersei, who is in the state of the Queen Mother supervising the country, will not behave like in the previous series.
While Lind was dealing with Cersei, the Lannister brothers Jaime and Tyrion were also being dealt with, one by Tywin and the other by Joffrey.
After Jaime left Lynd last night, he was planning to rescue Tyrion. Because he was worried that Duke Tywin or Joffrey would bribe the people around him, he did not summon his men, but temporarily stayed at the dock. Some mercenaries were hired, and Tyrion's men Bronn and Podrick were not informed.
Because in his opinion Bronn is a guy who is greedy for money and has no loyalty at all. As long as he is given a lot of money, betraying Tyrion is only a matter of minutes.
As for Podrick, although he is Tyrion's attendant, he was arranged by Tywin, so he feels that Podrick is also unreliable and may be someone Tywin uses to monitor Tyrion.
Therefore, he had no choice but to find someone to rescue Tyrion.
He went smoothly at first, getting rid of the guards outside Tyrion's mansion, and then woke up Tyrion who was still sleeping. He carried him out without saying anything and rushed towards the dock, where he had prepared something. The boat will be safe as long as it is sent to the Kingswood on the other side, because the Kingswood belongs to Lind's sphere of influence. Neither Tywin nor Joffrey would have the guts to enter Lind's sphere of influence to arrest people.
It's a pity that James underestimated Joffrey's hatred for Tyrion, and also underestimated his son's brain. Before he could pass through the mud door, he was intercepted by the golden robe that Joffrey arranged there. , and both of them were captured and returned to the Red Keep.
James was naturally not punished, but was imprisoned by Tywin. On the contrary, Tyrion was thrown into the dungeon of the Red Keep by Joffrey, and he was released on the day of the wedding. After attending the wedding, he was directly There will be a trial for Tyrion's traitors.
Tyrion could clearly feel Joffrey's hatred for him this time, and knew that if Joffrey really presided over the trial, he would definitely not survive, so when he was imprisoned in the dungeon, he began to regret why he had not listened earlier. Bronn's, let him save himself and leave.
At the same time, he also complained about Jaime, because Jaime's hasty actions were obviously out of good intentions and ruined Bronn's arrangements. Now Bronn can't save him even if he wants to. The only thing he can do now is to wait. die.
"My lord, I think you need this now. After all, you don't have much time." Just as Tyrion was praying in the dungeon for someone to save him, Varys suddenly came out of the shadows and held a A bottle of wine, stuffed into the small opening under the cell door for delivering food, and said.
"I didn't expect you to be the first to see me." Tyrion took the wine bottle, uncorked it and took a few sips. Then he looked at Varys outside the door and asked slightly worriedly: "Varys , do you know anything?"
However, Varys didn't answer anything. He just retreated into the shadows and stood there like a statue.
