The Iron Throne of Ice and Fire

Chapter 278 Love Each Other Forever

Edmure Tully opened his mouth and said, "Lord Tyrion, you are right. If it were me... I would do the same thing, oh!"

Tyrion saw that Edmure was hiding his inner panic with a sigh, and he was having a hard time suppressing his laughter.

After a moment of silence, Tyrion reached for the wine bottle, poured the wine and said: "My friend, don't be too sad, actually..."

The corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly: "Nights without candles are all the same."

Edmure looked up and said feebly: "This is my wife, she will still be the mother of my child, it's different."

After saying that, he raised his glass "painfully", paused for a while, sighed again, and then drank it all in one gulp.

Tyrion continued to pour wine for Edmure, and he rolled his eyes. It was the tenth glass... During the time he had been in contact with Edmure, Tyrion already knew that the heir of Riverrun was in the best condition at this moment, and it was easy to listen. It is also easy to reveal your true feelings when listening to other people's advice.

With the action of pouring wine, one black eye and one green eye calmly glanced at Edmure, whose eyes were slightly blurred. Tyrion said: "Lord Edmure, I have to agree with your idea."

He put down the flagon: "As a half-Lannister, my biggest dream is for my beautiful wife to give birth to a son as majestic as Jaime."

He seemed to be sighing: "This is the only way I can think of...to prevent my son from hating me. After all, I can't be a tall father. At least I can give my child a beautiful mother."

Edmure agreed very much: "Yes, I am more worried that the future lady of the Trout family will become an object of ridicule in others' mouths. Oh, the Seven Gods."

Tyrion's eyes moved slightly, as if he was trying his best to comfort him: "Perhaps I guessed wrong. You are the heir of Riverrun after all. As the Freys are your vassals, they should not dare to offend you."

"I am not yet the lord of the Frey family."

Edmure denied it at first, and then continued: "Lord Tyrion, Old Frey is the stingiest person in the Seven Kingdoms. Your guess is definitely correct, I can guarantee it."

Tyrion sighed helplessly and raised his glass: "May the gods bless you."

After taking a sip of wine, he continued: "May the Seven Gods and his old man bless me. I guessed wrong."

Edmure raised his glass and took a big sip, and said: "Lord Tyrion, thank you for your kind words. But I know that this is just a... Based on my understanding of old Frey, oh, it can only be a good thing. wish."

Tyrion did not continue to comfort him, and shook the wine glass in his hand. He suddenly said doubtfully: "I know that the location of the Twins is very important, but are you a little too... how should I put it... too much attention, to be honest? He said that he was just a vassal of the Tully family."

Edmure's eyes showed vigilance, but Tyrion showed no awareness on his face, and continued: "I think...it is this war that makes the Frey family's status very important. If there is no war, , Marquis Frey would be happy to marry the heir of Riverrun."

His tone was filled with emotion: "It's a pity that Lord Tywin married my charming sister Cersei to Baratheon. If she had married to Riverrun, at least she wouldn't have to be a widow... Well, it won't happen... we These are the troubles we are encountering now.”

Edmure seemed a little surprised: "Your sister is the Queen Regent. No woman can be more noble than her."

"A woman who is often beaten by her husband."

Tyrion leaned forward in Edmure's direction and lowered his voice slightly: "Robert is a drunkard, and my sister is very pitiful."

Edmure was in disbelief: "As a king, he actually...does something to his own queen? Is this true?"

Tyrion's voice was a little sad: "We are friends, that's why I tell you the truth, Lord Edmure."

He added: "Robert Baratheon's Warhammer is known to the seven kingdoms. This is why Jaime and I have been staying in the Red Keep. You can never guess what crazy things a drunkard will do."

"It's really pitiful... I have heard some rumors. I thought they were just... I didn't expect Robert I to be..."

Edmure did not continue to say that it was the Tully family's upbringing not to speak ill of others. This was what his father had taught him since he was a child.

Seeing that Tyrion, who usually liked to laugh, now looked sad because of his sister's tragic experience, he comforted him: "Lord Tyrion, at least she is doing well now. No woman can be more noble than her."

Tyrion glanced at the kind-hearted Edmure, shook his head slightly, and sighed: "Lord Edmure, what you see is her superficial beauty, but her current situation is actually even more pitiful..."

As he spoke, Tyrion hesitated to speak. Edmure reached out and patted Tyrion's shoulder: "It's okay, I will be a good listener. We are friends, Tyrion."

Tyrion nodded gratefully, took a sip of wine, and said: "Robert I is dead, Joffrey has sat on the Iron Throne, and Lord Tywin feels that my sister is worthless..."

His eyes looked at the heir of Riverrun: "Edmure, you should know what this means."

Edmure's eyes widened slightly: "This...how is this possible?!"

Tyrion couldn't guess what exactly Edmure had in mind, but he achieved the result he wanted, so...it didn't matter.

He closed his eyes in pain: "The Light of the West, the most beautiful woman in the Seven Kingdoms, is now regarded as something that has lost value by her cruel father. Sister Cersei has loved me the most since she was a child, but I am a dwarf with no courage and no use. . No Sir Jaime, no legendary knight... to save the bird imprisoned in Magta."

His voice revealed a hint of hatred: "My father has no affection for his family. He treats his children as goods in exchange for his power. He only has power in his eyes."

This is indeed consistent with what Edmure has always heard about Lord Tywin.

Jaime... Edmure's blue eyes moved slightly, and he asked tentatively: "Tyrion, do you think Jaime can save your sister?"

What did Edmure guess from Tyrion's words? He thought that Lord Tywin would drive Cersei Lannister out of the Red Castle and let her become a nun of the Seven Gods. This was the worst result he could think of.

What was Edmure testing at this moment? Because Tyrion just mentioned Jaime Lannister, he was a little suspicious that what Tyrion said was a lie to save Sir Jaime.

Hearing Edmure's blatant words of temptation, Tyrion couldn't help but sigh in his heart. The naivety of the heir of Riverrun in front of him made him...feel very cute.

Well, but it's not bad. If there is no war, at least there will be no big problem in inheriting and keeping the family. After all, it is impossible for everyone to be the man who is robbing the valley.

…………

Tyrion took back his thoughts and said bitterly: "Jaime became a captive. In the eyes of my father, he is a son who has tarnished the honor of Lannister."

He shook his head and continued: "I think Jaime is also very clear that Duke Tywin always values ​​the honor of the Lannister family. He will not forgive anyone, even his own children."

He scratched his hair: "I guess the best outcome for Jaime is to be a Kingsguard who never marries or has children, and always protects his grandson king."

A trace of doubt in Edmure's heart disappeared. Combined with the information he knew, he could judge that Tyrion did not lie to him. He sipped the wine silently. The heir of the Tully family really couldn't understand the family affection of the Lannister family, or the fatherly love of Duke Tywin.

After a moment of silence, Tyrion seemed to have finally made up his mind. He reached out and grabbed Edmure's wrist, saying sincerely: "Edmure, now... only you can save my sister, you are her true knight."

Edmure almost dropped the wine glass in his hand and said: "What do you mean?"

Tyrion nodded sincerely and said: "Let's end the war, the entire Seven Kingdoms... only you can do it, Lord Edmure."

Edmure did not move, he opened his eyes wide and said: "Tyrion, I regard you as my friend, but you want me to betray my nephew?!"

Tyrion shook his head slightly, he stared at Edmure, and said : "No betrayal, we are friends, I promise. End this fight, Robb Stark is still the King of the North, and you..."

He slightly increased the strength of his grip on Edmure's wrist: "Wear the crown of the King of the Trident, marry the most beautiful woman in the Seven Kingdoms - Cersei Lannister, she will become your queen and give birth to beautiful children for you."

His eyes were full of sincerity: "Edmure, become my brother-in-law, let us become a family, end this chaos, Tully, Stark, Lannister will love each other forever."

There was a plea in his voice: "For my sister, Knight Edmure."
