Chapter 184 Moments of Life and Death (Part 2)

"If I remember correctly, our family motto is' hear me roar '. Why, this time I finally found out that whether I roar or not, I'm going to die, I'm stumped?" Tyrion didn't seem to have any awareness that the family was in danger, still frivolous, just glanced at the note to understand Situation: "The path before us is clear now: either roar, and then get chopped to death by the sword in the roar... or obediently bend down and wag her tail, send my dear old brother out and be beheaded, In the future, I will take over as Duke of Casterly Rock, and let me, the Imp, revive the House Lannister, which has been in decline."

"Shit." Cersei coldly snorted, and James glared displeasedly. brother : when is this the time, and are you still in the mood to play your lame joke?
Tywin didn't say a word, just stared at Tyrion until the latter shrugged selflessly, "Well, there is another solution, and that is to try to reach a compromise with Iron Throne, and let Zhan attack the monarch. Mu put on black clothed, and what is the crime against Cersei and him, withhold investigating because of insufficient evidence."

"Compromise has always been a means to be used on the battlefield if you can't win, this time. Robert led six countries to fight one country, why did he spare James' life and spare Cersei?" Kevan glanced at Tyrion suspiciously: "Anyone with a discerning eye can see that as long as the six-nation armies converge on time and head into the Westerlands, no Any strategy or tactic is needed, even if it is only a straight line to push Lanisport, and within a month, without the Bloody Gate to defend, we are bound to fail."

"Uncle you are right, Robert impossible makes This compromise, so—he had better get out." Tyrion regretfully shook his head at James: "Dear Old Brother, you didn't stab him, but the biggest mistake you've ever made. Ours. A good king is immortal, and there is absolutely no possibility of resolving the crisis this time. Instead of discussing whether to follow the ultimatum, it is better to start thinking now - which of the major Free Cities is suitable for us to live in and which can Protect us from Iron Throne's pursuit, and... will the ship that carried us escape safely to the other side of the narrow sea."

The atmosphere in the hall became subtle as the monarchy was openly discussed. stand up.

Tywin stared at Tyrion silently. There were four other people in the room besides oneself. Oneself, the dwarf son, was the only one who thought of going together with oneself. If it weren't for the fact that the bad appearance would damage the family's face, and the private life was ruined in a mess... Tywin really had the idea of abandoning James and Cersei and letting Tyrion take over as the parent. Maybe this Imp could really revive House Lannister in a desperate situation.

Speaking of personal life, James and Cersei, who have always been proud of oneself, did this kind of thing, what qualifications do they have to dislike Tyrion's love of visiting brothels?
......

"Father, if you can send troops to take back my Old Brother in time, someone must have tipped you off. There are no outsiders here, at this critical moment of the family's survival. , can you tell me, is this messenger within the Red Keep?"

"Pycelle." Tywin spit out the name expressionlessly, "When I was prime minister to assist Mad King, Working hand in hand with him to govern the Seven Kingdoms, to keep everything in order in Westeros in order, and to form a deep friendship."

Friendship is naturally nonsense, Grand Maester is a oneself person, there are only people here. Tywin knew it. Even Kevan and Cersei only thought that Pycelle was invested in her because of their wealth and the identity of the king's in-laws, but it was never clear that Pycelle was already House Lannister before Cersei was born...or Tywin Loyal supporter.

This kind of inside story was supposed to be kept secret from even close relatives, but now the family is in danger of survival.

"It's him." Tyrion suddenly realized, "No wonder you always get news immediately, I'm afraid Ed's pursuers haven't left King's Landing, and the raven who came to report to you is already on the way. Well...let me think about it...on the day of the end of the slaughterer war, it must be your faithful 'friend' who tried to persuade Mad King to open the city to welcome our army?"

Zhan Both Mu and Cersei looked at the father with shocked eyes. They never thought that the father still had this line. How many secrets are there in this patriarch?
Tywin said nothing, seemingly acquiescing to the guess.

Tyrion quickly recovered from the surprise. It was a bit surprising to say this, but it was completely reasonable: "Then the most critical question now comes, Sir Father...that day Pycelle was willing to You tricked Mad King into opening the door to King's Landing, will he assassinate Robert for you this time?"

"I'm afraid it's a bit difficult." Kevan also came back to his senses, " He betrayed Mad King on that day, and his righteousness of 'saving the people of Limin from water and fire' can be explained. Now it is our family who suffers from the public opinion. Who would dare to take such a big risk to assassinate the communists that Seven Kingdoms recognize?"

"Pycelle is Grand Maester, he must treat Robert's wounds. Just do some hands and feet in the medicine used, so that the wounds can't heal or even worsen, not simple?" Tyrion hehe said With a smile, Quickly offered a feasible solution: "When Robert dies and the body is cremated, The Seven will not be able to find out who did it."

"Pycelle doesn't have the guts." Cersei said, "It's better to go to Braavos to hire Faceless Men. It is said that they never fail."

"Faceless Men are not as gods as people say, and they are not a simple Assassin Organization. One of the biggest clients of Braavos Iron Vault, as long as he doesn't renege on a debt, it's almost impossible to buy Faceless Men to assassinate Robert." James reluctantly shook his head at Cersei: "Even if you can get twice the debt in cash, Braavos won't necessarily take the order that might hit the mark."

Tywin ignored the conversation between the golden sons and daughters, but continued to stare at Tyrion...he didn't like oneself, the dwarf son However, no one dared to deny the wisdom of this little man. At this critical moment, the ordinary and safe method could no longer save the family. Maybe it was time to make a strange move.

"Assumption, I mean hypothetical - now that I have a way to let Robert die, what would you suggest me to do next?" dwarf, James attacked the king twice, and this life is destined to be no longer suitable to take over the position of oneself. Although Tyrion is not a suitable person, but as an assistant, it is suitable: "When Robert dies, no matter who succeeds the throne, it is impossible to let James the Kingslayer and the former queen accused by rumors."

...

"One by one, father, if you want House Lannister to survive this big crisis, then half step can't go wrong, rather than thinking about 'next', it's better first Think about the enemy closest to us right now. It's not good, it's not dark today, they have already landed on the coast of the Westerlands."

"Ironmen?" Tywin raised his brows, he wanted to see See if Tyrion can be as thoughtful as oneself, whoever thinks the other party's first sentence wakes up oneself - he has been thinking about how to deal with Robert and the other six countries for the past two days, but he almost forgot that there is a mediocre, but Quite a troublesome, close enemy!

"The Ironmen have been ordered not to travel the Old Way since the conquest of Aegon, and the Westerlands coast has thus been spared the trouble of looting, and with a safe development environment, both commoners and nobles have become more and more prosperous. Rich, the Ironmen have long coveted." Kevan also reacted: "But this time when James attacked Robert, I am afraid that this group of people who like to make a living by robbing... will immediately board the ship and set sail when they get the news, attacking and looting the villages and towns along the Westerlands. !"

"Someone!" Tywin frowned, realizing that this matter was urgent, he called squire directly before the meeting was over, and commanded in front of everyone: "Immediately order Lanisport and Fair Isle Fleet—Leaving the port to prepare for cruising along the coast in case it is intercepted by the enemy in the nest; also notify the various coastal houses in the Westerlands, relocate residents and property to reliable castles, send additional coastal patrol scouts, and raise the alert to the highest level!"

Cersei wondered: "The ten-day ultimatum time hasn't expired yet, how dare the Ironmen disobey the Iron Throne's order and take the lead?"

"Just go up to the Lannister Putting pressure on me and forcing me to bow to Iron Throne's righteousness, can Eddie punish them for sending troops quickly after the fight?" If Cersei was not the party involved, Tywin really wanted to invite the daughter of oneself back to her room, She can't help at all here, but she just likes to interject: "No matter how bad it is, as long as you don't admit that plunderer is a person from the Iron Islands, who can get them in this troubled world?"

" Sir Father, your work is really swift and decisive." Tyrion flattered with a smile: "Looking at your appearance, you will never hand over my Old Brother to beheaded, if so, you should think about this war. How should we fight. Should we wait for the armies of the six countries to assemble in place and fight them in a large-scale decisive battle on the plains, or should we take the initiative to avoid the enemy's edge and attack the key points? If we want to go first, which one should we choose?"

"Take the initiative?" Kevan was taken aback by Tyrion's proposal: "We were originally the weaker party. If we really do it first, then there is no room for improvement, only the dead end!"

"Uncle is right, the first move is the dead end. But what Sir Father just said was—'If he can kill Robert'." Tyrion drank his glass: "My The point is simple, Robert does not Death, no matter how tossed, we are all dead end. But if Robert dies, the one who strikes first will still have a slight advantage. Now, I ask very seriously: Sir Father, don't assume, is there any way you can kill Robert, even if it's only possible? "

"For the future of the family, I have to take any kind of risk. Within the Red Keep, there are several people who are not named Lannister. I can contact them. Just give it a try. "Tywin stared at Tyrion, but this time he asked seriously: "Besides preventing Ironmen, do you have any advice, don't sell it, let's say it together." ”
