  Chapter 234 Cersei: I need an explanation.

Not only Littlefinger was feeling uncomfortable at the moment, but also Olenna and Cersei.

King's Landing, Red Keep.

"I need an explanation, Lord Mace!" Cersei looked at Mace with sharp eyes.

Meis looked terrified and said tremblingly, "I don't know, Your Majesty, this must be a rumor, trying to stir up internal strife among us. My mother is not that kind of person."

Although Cersei knew that the North was trying to stir up internal strife in the South, knowing was one thing, but what to do next was another.

Especially after Joffrey's death, Olenna ran away with Margaery, which makes people think of some bad things.

If Loras and Lord Mace hadn't been in King's Landing, Cersei would probably have begun gathering an army by now.

However, Cersei did not easily believe what the Duke of Mace said. "Come, take the Duke of Mace back to his room first. No one is allowed to meet with the Duke of Mace without my permission."

Cersei wanted to imprison Duke Mace, and Mace looked unhappy. Kevan finally couldn't help it. Cersei's stupidity was far beyond his imagination.

"Enough, the Duke of Mace is the Guardian of the South. It is his right to see whoever he wants. No one has the right to monitor a duke!" Kevan stared at Cersei and reminded her word by word.

Kevan was in great pain. Cersei's stupidity was beyond his imagination. She wanted to put the Duke of the South under house arrest just because of a rumor without evidence. Only Cersei could do such a stupid thing.

Now the war in Westeros is about to begin, and it is a war involving dragons. Its scale in the future will definitely not be lower than the War of the Five Kings, and it may even surpass Robert's uprising.

In this situation, any ally is very important. Poseidon's reforms in the North are well known, and the southern nobles are natural allies of the Iron Throne.

If these allies were forced to the opposite side because of this news, whether true or false, Kevan would really go to hell to find his good brother Tywin.

However, Cersei could not think so much. She turned her head and looked at Kevan fearlessly and said,

"I am the Regent Prime Minister. I represent the king. My words are the king's words, and my power is the king's power. What you said just now is enough to sentence you to death ten times."

Cersei's words made Kevan's face turn pale, but now that Tywin is dead and Jaime has returned to Casterly Rock to inherit the title, given Cersei's position in Tommen's heart, King's Landing is now basically under Cersei's control.

This also made Cersei unprecedentedly inflated. Of course, the most important reason was that Jaime inherited Casterly Rock, and she believed that Jaime would definitely support him unconditionally.

"By the way, weren't you going back to Casterly Rock? You can go back now. Remember to assist my brother, Ser Kevan!"

Kevan felt like she was going to be mad to death. She never thought that a male lion would give birth to such stupid offspring.

Cersei's stupidity is incomprehensible to Kevan. Not only is Cersei stupid, she is also very arrogant and always feels that everyone has to listen to her and revolve around her.

Bang!

Kevan slammed the table angrily. The ministers present looked at each other, but no one dared to speak. Cersei and his men could not afford to offend them, and neither could Kevan and his men.

"Sooner or later, you will pay the price for your stupidity." Kevan angrily threw down these words, then stood up and left the Prime Minister's Tower.

After Kevan left, Cersei smiled confidently. Now that Tywin was gone and Jaime had returned to the Westerly, King's Landing was her world.

Looking back at the fully armed Mountain behind her, Cersei felt unprecedented joy. The feeling of being in power made her intoxicated.

With the loss of Kevan, all the ministers present were Cersei's men, and Duke Mace and Loras were unsurprisingly placed under house arrest separately.

After entering the room, the Duke of Metz's face no longer showed panic, but instead showed incomparable anger.

"Damn it Cersei, do you think you are Tywin?"

Not to mention Cersei, even Tywin would not dare to imprison the Duke of the Reach openly.

After all, the 12 million people in the Reach are not there to look good.

However, Cersei's arrogance has always made her think that as long as she controls Lord Mace, she can control the Reach.

Cersei is ready to threaten Olenna to marry Margaery to Tommen. As long as the raw rice is cooked, the River Reach will naturally cooperate with him to defeat Poseidon.

But that's not how the Game of Thrones is played. Just one day after Cersei placed the Duke of Mace under house arrest, Highgarden received a raven from King's Landing.

Olenna's expression remained unchanged as she looked at the contents of the letter, but her flickering eyes betrayed her. Obviously, she did not expect Cersei to put Mace under house arrest.

Olenna took Margaery back to Highgarden, leaving behind Lord Mace and Loras, who was preparing to marry Cersei. Given the current situation, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that the Tyrell family was ready to reconsider their stance.

As a result, instead of winning over the Tyrell family, Cersei directly placed Mace Tyrell, Duke of the Reach, under house arrest.

At this tense moment, Cersei's actions are undoubtedly pushing the Reach into the arms of the Poseidon family.

If it weren't for the fact that the policies implemented by Jack Poseidon in the North violated the interests of the nobles, who knows how many nobles would have secretly contacted the Poseidon family.
