Game of Thrones: The Red Dragon Lord.

Chapter 182 Bet
Tyrion felt uneasy after hearing this, and slowly replied, "Your Majesty, I am different from you. You are a dragon rider and can ride a dragon here. It took me two months to reach Lys, and I have only just gained some understanding of the situation here."

Gavin nodded slightly and said calmly, "It's okay, I'm just asking casually. As long as you manage Rees with all your heart and achieve significant results, I can remove your acting position."

Tyrion looked bitter after hearing this, and said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, rest assured that I will do my best. But after I help you govern Lys, can you let me return to Westeros?"

After hearing this, Gavin's eyes dimmed and he said coldly, "I'm afraid not. Lys alone is not enough to make up for the crimes committed by the Lannister family. Tyrion, are you still dreaming of going back to inherit your father's Casterly Rock? You know better than me how you came to Dragonstone. You are a smart man, and you should be able to guess what Tywin thinks of you. As long as he is here, you will never inherit Casterly Rock."

Tyrion gritted his teeth and retorted unwillingly: "But Jaime has sworn to become a white knight, and I am his only heir."

Gavin shook his head and said calmly: "You have never been his heir. His only heir is your brother Jaime. As for the oath, it is not worth mentioning. Jaime once swore to protect the Mad King, Aerys, but he not only broke his oath, but also earned the title of 'Kingslayer'."

Tyrion was speechless for a moment, he knew that what Gawen said was right.

In Tywin's eyes, his brother had always been the heir, and he was just a disgrace to his father, a disgrace that he wanted to be wiped away as quickly as possible.

But he felt a little unwilling in his heart. After Jaime vowed to become a Kingsguard, he should inherit everything.

Gavin looked at Tyrion who had fallen into silence, intending to wake him up completely. After all, the little devil was a rare talent, and indulging in the extravagant hope of returning home every day would also affect his work.

Gawen continued, "Tyrion, I will make a bet with you. It won't be long before Joffrey removes Jaime from the Kingsguard, and then Jaime will be re-appointed as heir by your father. As for you, you will be charged with treason. If this does not happen within a year, you win the bet and I will let you go."

After hearing this bet, Tyrion finally did not respond.

He had no confidence of winning at all, he knew clearly that everything would happen just as Gavin said.

He still has some understanding of his family. His only hope is that Jaime will refuse the inheritance, but he knows that relying on Jaime alone may not be a sure thing, and Cersei alone can force Jaime to change his mind.

Gavin did not continue to be aggressive. Instead, he walked forward, gently patted Tyrion on the shoulder, and comforted him: "My words are valid for a long time. You should consider your own family's affairs. At least now you have come to Lys, so don't worry about the future for the time being. I heard that you are doing well in Lys?"

Tyrion calmed down and said hastily, "Your Majesty, I have spent all the gold dragons I brought with me. You must understand that Lys's brothels are world-famous, and I think I deserve to be paid for my service to you."

Gavin couldn't help but feel happy after hearing this. Tyrion was very loyal in his feelings, but when he didn't have any feelings, his biggest hobby was to find comfort in brothels.

So Gavin generously promised: "Of course there will be compensation. All your future expenses in Rees will be paid by the Governor's Office, and you will also be paid 200 gold royals every month as compensation."

Tyrion used to have no shortage of money. Because he was generous, whenever he gave a reward to others, they would be grateful. Now, Tyrion has experienced the feeling of being funded, which is indeed quite comfortable.

So he responded respectfully: "Thank you for your generosity." After hearing this, Gavin nodded slightly, his expression indifferent, and then ignored Tyrion.

He slowly turned his gaze to Jorah and waved his hand gently, signaling everyone to enter the Governor's Palace.

As they walked forward, Gavin asked, "How are the arrangements for the trip to Slaver's Bay going?"

Jorah looked respectful and answered immediately: "Your Majesty, a large armed merchant ship flying the flag of the Qarth Merchant Guild has been prepared. The merchant ship is endorsed by the Bronze King of Qarth. I have selected thirty good mercenaries for you. They are not only proficient in swordsmanship, but also know how to operate a ship. They are absolutely reliable in terms of loyalty."

Gavin nodded slightly and continued to ask, "Have all the golden dragons been delivered to the ship?"

"Your Majesty, we have prepared 300,000 gold royals and have all been shipped. I have arranged two hundred-man teams to guard it day and night to ensure that nothing goes wrong." Jorah replied.

As they spoke, the group walked into the hall, where they saw a burly mercenary standing. He was wearing exquisite leather armor, the patterns on the armor were delicate and exquisite, as if telling of the vicissitudes its owner had experienced.

There was a scimitar hanging around his waist, and the scabbard was inlaid with gems, which sparkled mysteriously under the light.

There was a thin scar on his forehead, which looked like a winding snake, adding a bit of ferocity to him.

The palms of his hands were covered with calluses, which were like medals of time, showing his experience and skill in using a knife. When the mercenary saw Gavin coming in, he immediately bowed to show his respect.

Jorah stepped forward and introduced, "Your Majesty, his name is Scar Kyros, and he is the captain of the mercenaries leading this team. He is experienced and once served as a centurion in the Windblown. After leaving the Windblown, he fought in various places in Essos and was also a captain for a period of time. He traveled back and forth between Lys and Slaver's Bay for a long time and knows this sea area like the back of his hand."

Gavin looked at the burly Kairos quietly, with satisfaction in his eyes. He nodded slightly and said, "Kairos, Jorah told you the purpose of this trip, right?"

Kairos bowed again and answered respectfully, "Yes, your majesty. Lord Jorah has told me the details in detail. I am honored to serve your majesty."

Gavin nodded and said seriously, "Then the captain's position for this voyage will be handed over to you. If you do a good job, I will pay you double the commission."

Kairos was so excited when he heard this, his eyes sparkled with excitement, and he said, "Praise you! You are such a generous monarch. Your Majesty, please rest assured that Kairos will not let you down."

Gavin waved his hand and said, "Okay, go down and get ready. We'll set off early tomorrow morning."

"As you command, Your Majesty." Kairos bowed again and stepped out.
