King's Landing, Red Keep.
To this day, the Red Castle is still the center of power in Westeros, and almost every great noble has industry and official positions in King's Landing.
Today is a special day. The common people and nobles of King's Landing are filled with righteous indignation, waiting for the trial of the murderer of King Joffrey.
The kingslayer being interrogated is naturally Tyrion Lannister, the hero who saved King's Landing.
Of course, no one remembers him now as the hero who saved King's Landing.
All everyone remembers is that he was a dwarf full of jealousy and lust, and that he poisoned his own nephew, the King of the Seven Kingdoms, and was a regicide.
He should have been tried months ago.
But when the Tyrells left King's Landing without a word, Roose Bolton in the North repeatedly asked for help.
The continuous emergencies caused Tywin Lannister to have no time to think about how to deal with Tyrion Lannister.
In fact, Tywin knew very well that with Tyrion's character, it was impossible for him to poison Joffrey, let alone poison him at the wedding.
Tyrion is not such a stupid person. Tywin also has some guesses in his mind that Olenna must be involved.
But Tywin felt that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to execute Tyrion openly.
He had always suspected that Tyrion was not his child. Look at Tyrion's sister and brother. Which one of them is not at the top of the pyramid of the Seven Kingdoms?
Look at Tyrion again. Not to mention that he is a dwarf, he also has heterochromia and abnormal hair color.
Besides, the Mad King often summoned his wife alone during that period, and Tyrion's speaking killed his beloved wife.
Due to various factors, he still wanted to execute Tyrion.
Just as he said at the beginning, if he had not been unable to prove that Tyrion was not his own, he would have drowned Tyrion in the Sunset Sea long ago.
So even though he knew very well that Joffrey Baratheon was not poisoned by Tyrion, he did not make any statement.
And it's not just him who wants Tyrion dead. There are too many people who want Tyrion dead. During the time when he was promoted to acting prime minister, Tyrion offended too many people.
As for the civilians who were confused but equally indignant, Tywin never took their thoughts to heart.
Nor would they worry that killing Tyrion, the hero who saved King's Landing, would cause them to riot.
This group of stupid and lowly civilians will be very happy as long as they kill someone of higher status than them, no matter whether he is good or bad.
Just like Eddard Stark back then, Eddard Stark was well-known for his integrity and kindness, and his friendship with King Robert was well known to everyone, but what about when he was beheaded?
Those lowly civilians were cheering and shouting, loudly condemning Eddard Stark's vain act of rebellion.
Of course, Tyrion Lannister himself also knows this.
Dark prison.
The entire cell was filled with excrement, the stink was so severe that people couldn't open their eyes, and there was hardly any room to step.
Tyrion had a pair of chains tied to his feet, and the other end of the chains were tied to the middle pillar, and he was sitting under the pillar.
Tyrion hadn't trimmed his beard and hair for a long time, and he looked extremely haggard.
He didn't understand why his father didn't help him. Anyone with a discerning eye knew that it was definitely not him who poisoned him. He was just a scapegoat.
No matter how much Tywin dislikes him, he is still his father's child. Why not help him?
Just because of his birth, his mother died?
Just because he is a dwarf?
But this is not something he can decide. If he knew that he would be a dwarf in this life, he should have been shot into a corner instead of coming to this world and being discriminated against!
"Crack—"
The outer door was unlocked and the tall and handsome Jaime Lannister walked in.
"younger brother."
When Tyrion saw Jaime, a glimmer of light finally returned to his eyes.
"Brother, why are you here?" Tyrion moved his body to make himself look more energetic.
James looked around, then grabbed a handful of straw and threw it against the wall, then sat down on it and took out a pot of wine and a roast chicken from his arms.
"Father has decided to hold your trial in the throne room in half a month."
Tyrion's excited expression when he was looking at the wine jug and roast chicken suddenly dimmed after hearing Jaime's words.
But Tyrion quickly calmed down and joked to himself, "Half a month later? What month is that?"
"The end of December."
"Well, I thought father had forgotten me." Tyrion said with a smile, but his words were full of complaints about Tywin.
"Some time ago, the remnants of the Targaryen family launched a war in the North.
Roose Bolton was defeated and his life or death is unknown. The entire North has fallen into the hands of the Targaryen family. "
"My father has been trying to repair the relationship with the major families and win over more allies. He also had to find a way to support the Bolton family, so he has not been brought to trial."
After Jaime finished speaking, Tyrion was a little surprised, "That little girl from the Targaryen family pacified the North so quickly?"
"To be precise, it's not the little girl from the Targaryen family, but Jack, a descendant of Blackfyre.
He changed his last name to Poseidon and founded the Poseidon family and the Atlantis Deep Sea Empire.
The Targaryen girl married him, and he took over the North."
"Atlantis Deep Sea Empire?" Tyrion asked in surprise.
"Yes, that's what they call it. Their king is called the Sea King." James nodded.
Although he also thought the name was strange, it was indeed the case. This was the name.
"Sea King? What's his name?" Tyrion asked.
"Jack Poseidon."
"Well, I really want to thank Mr. Jack Poseidon. He allowed me to live several more months. Hahaha."
James felt sad as he looked at his brother who was down and out and making fun of himself.
He took a deep breath and secretly decided to find an opportunity to secretly let his brother go.
As for his father's punishment, Jaime didn't care. To put it bluntly, he was now the only heir to Casterly Rock.
However, secretly letting Tyrion go was only a last resort. Before that, he needed to talk to his father Tywin.
Tywin had always hoped that he could inherit Casterly Rock and the position of Duke of the Westerlands, but in order to keep his relationship with his sister, he joined the King's Guard and was not allowed to marry or have children.
But now his right hand is gone. As a Kingsguard, and a captain at that, this is obviously very unqualified. He has long thought about quitting the Kingsguard.
So he used this as an excuse to negotiate with his father Tywin. As long as Tyrion could be spared, everything would be fine.
