Then the beautiful blonde queen, holding her daughter, pulled Joffrey to her feet from the Iron Throne, and, suppressing her inner humiliation, gave a slight bow.

"Your Highness, the Eldest Princess."

Then they slunk away to the side, clearing the way to the Iron Throne.

Renis ignored Cersei, standing at the bottom of the steps, gazing silently at the throne above, forged from thousands of swords.

This is a lump of iron covered with spikes, sharp corners, and twisted metal, yet it attracts countless people.

Renis is still young, but growing up in such a special family, she already has a deep understanding of power.

wow-

Without a word, the brown-haired girl, holding the hilt of her sword with one hand, stepped up the stairs, the custom-made women's armor on her body making a metallic sound.

She walked past Cersei without even glancing at her, while Prince Joffrey, who was only a few years younger than her, trembled with fear.

Renis approached the Iron Throne, reached out and touched the cold, spiked lump of iron, then spoke in Valyrian without turning her head.

“Take off her crown.”

Chapter 448 Ascending the Iron Throne

Cersei was slightly taken aback, as she couldn't understand High Valyrian, but before she could react, two Unsullied soldiers stepped forward and removed the crown from her head.

The Unsullied soldier, spear in hand and cold in his eyes, not only frightened Myrcella to tears this time, but also Prince Joffrey.

The blond boy couldn't understand their language and thought these indifferent foreign soldiers were going to kill him. He was so scared that he almost wet his pants.

But to their surprise, they simply stepped forward and removed the crown from their mother's head.

Cersei gasped in shock. Her crown had been removed, and she stood there disheveled, her last vestige of dignity gone, leaving her completely indistinguishable from the crowd.

The Targaryen army had taken over the entire city of King's Landing, and members of the Council of Kings and nobles eligible to attend the Throne Room were arriving one after another. The fat Archbishop of St. Baelor's Cathedral was also present.

Cersei's crown was roughly snatched away by the Unsullied soldiers, who then carried it to the side of the princess. Reyne, clad in bright armor, sat down on the Iron Throne without hesitation, her gaze fixed on the magnificent, portly High Priest among the terrified crowd below.

The archbishop immediately understood, and trembling, he stepped out from the crowd, walked up the steps to the Iron Throne, and took the queen's crown from the Unsullied soldier.

Then, under the warning gaze of the black bug, urging him not to act rashly, the obese archbishop tremblingly placed the queen's crown on Renis's head.

When Renis put on the crown, a sparse round of applause broke out below.

These vassals, who were the Baratheons just a moment ago, could cheer for the Targaryen princess the next. Only Cersei, stripped of her crown and standing there disheveled, had a hint of resentment in her eyes.

Rene's gaze swept over everyone standing below, including the Lord Chancellor, the royal nobles, the families of those whose castles had been breached, Lady Stark and her children, and she paid no heed to their cheers or resentment.

Then the girl, crowned and seated on the Iron Throne, spoke.

"Mrs. Florence."

"You'll be settling down here for the time being."

Mrs. Celeste Florence, who was holding her daughter Shirin below, naturally had no complaints.

Having spent time with Renis, she could sense that the girl wasn't as cold and ruthless as she seemed. It was just that the fact that the dragon was always by her side made her seem somewhat unapproachable.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Lady Florence and her family from Tidehead Island bowed slightly and then followed the soldiers away. They would temporarily settle in the Red Keep and await their fate.

Lady Florence and the others left, while the blonde queen stood alone on the steps with her two children, and little Princess Myrcella continued to cry.

Reneus frowned slightly, feeling a pang of pity, because she had been about Myrcella's age when she fled King's Landing. She glanced at Cersei and then spoke.

“Cersei Lannister, wife of the usurper, I understand your terms.”

"But I can't agree to that for now."

Cersei's conditions were to spare the lives of Joffrey, Myrcella, and Jaime, and to preserve the Lannister family.

These promises from Reyne could not be made on behalf of Viserys, and more importantly, the Lannisters had not surrendered and were reportedly still besieged in Riverrun.

These decisions will have to wait until Viserys returns—whether to kill, spare, or take another approach.

However, for the time being, Reyne can allow Cersei and her two children to live in Maegor House, since they handed over King's Landing intact, and they can still enjoy this kind of treatment.

Cersei, with her crown removed and hair disheveled, holding a crying girl and her son who nearly wet his pants in fright, was already feeling like she was being pricked by needles in the throne room. Naturally, she was more than happy to be allowed to leave first by Reyne.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Cersei gritted her teeth slightly, gave Reynis a deep look, and forced back her reddened eyes to stop the tears from falling. Then she bowed slightly and spoke in a hoarse voice.

Then, escorted by Unsullied soldiers, they left the throne room and returned to the Meg Tower behind it.

Once the group of women and children had left, Renis withdrew her gaze and turned to look at the imp who was standing rather inconspicuously on the steps of the throne room.

Tyrion Lannister.

Tyrion stood on the steps. He didn't belong to the kneeling nobles, nor did he seem to belong to the Targaryen family. He was just a laborer, so his position was somewhat awkward, neither high nor low.

"Your Highness."

Fortunately, Renis hadn't forgotten him. Tyrion heard the girl's voice and quickly stepped forward, bowing slightly in greeting.

“You have fulfilled your promise to me, taking King’s Landing without losing a single soldier, and I will certainly not break my word.”

The brown-haired girl blinked at Tyrion. When she first captured this little guy, she never imagined that he could actually take King's Landing without losing a single soldier.

Renis sent Tyrion out just to test the waters, but she never expected to receive such a pleasant surprise.

"From today onwards you are free and will no longer be held accountable for your crimes."

Upon hearing Reyne's words, Tyrion breathed a sigh of relief.

In his view, the Targaryen family's conquest of the Seven Kingdoms was inevitable, and he, being a Lannister, was one of the most unforgivable people, so his future was bleak.

But now that he had received these words from the princess, Tyrion felt much more at ease.

Although he had never met Viserys, through his understanding of him over this period of time, he knew that Viserys loved Renis very much and would listen to her opinions on many things.

With Renis's guarantee, he was basically a get-out-of-jail-free card, and Viserys wouldn't easily execute him.

Although he had become a free man and could go wherever he wanted, Tyrion did not want to leave.

Because he had nowhere else to go after leaving King's Landing, his father wanted to kill him, and he couldn't gain acceptance even after returning to his family.

He might as well stay in King's Landing, where someone appreciates his talent, and given the bright future of the Targaryen family...

Tyrion was tempted.

"Your Highness."

Tyrion then spoke up, expressing his desire to stay in King's Landing.

Sneers erupted from the nobles in the throne room, and even Catelyn shook her head. Some thought Tyrion was overestimating himself, and that Her Highness the Princess would not leave a dwarf in the court.

Surprisingly, when Rhaenys heard Tyrion's words, she wasn't surprised; instead, she showed a joyful expression.

She did acknowledge Tyrion's talent and told him that if he wanted to stay, she would recommend him to Viserys.

Chapter 449 Pentos's Conspiracy

But in the end, Renis thought about it and still asked a question.

"Tyrion, I heard that the Kingslayer was attacked and went missing last night. This shouldn't have anything to do with you, right?"

The kingslayer killed the king to whom he had sworn allegiance, and the Targaryen army, after entering King's Landing, naturally searched for Jaime Lannister's whereabouts.

Upon learning of the news from the previous night, Cersei wanted to strip Jaime of his military command and sent the capital's garrison to attempt to attack and detain him, but Jaime fought his way out and escaped.

Jaime is nowhere to be found, neither alive nor dead. Reyne, having entered King's Landing, naturally received this information, but there was nothing she could do except intensify the search.

Tyrion's expression tightened slightly upon hearing Reynard's words.

He did indeed consider hiring mercenaries to attack the prison wagon, then sending James to the Eastern Continent to create the illusion of an attack.

But the final result was unexpected; Jaime's disappearance really had nothing to do with Tyrion.

So Tyrion stood on the steps in front of the Iron Throne, shook his head solemnly, and vehemently denied it.

"No, Your Highness."

"I was unaware of James's disappearance."

Among the assembled officials, Varys, the Minister of Intelligence, stood with his hands tucked into his sleeves, giving Tyrion's retreating figure on the steps a long look, but remained silent.

...

The Targaryen army conquered King's Landing, the capital of the Seven Kingdoms, without bloodshed, and Princess Rhaenys temporarily sat on the Iron Throne.

Then a series of orders came from the Red Keep, the first being a ban on King's Landing, continuing Cersei's curfew system.

Secondly, an arrest warrant was issued to hunt down 'Kingslayer' Jaime Lannister.

You can claim a bounty of one hundred gold dragons as long as you find his trail, and you will receive a reward of one thousand gold dragons if you capture him alive.

Then he ordered the Grand Maester of Pycelle and the Archbishop to inform the other lords and vassals of the Seven Kingdoms, respectively, in the name of the Iron Throne and the Seven Gods, that King's Landing had changed hands and to order them to surrender immediately.

During this period, the situation on the continent of Westeros was very turbulent, while the continent of Essos became much quieter, except for several Dothraki civil wars that broke out on the Great Grass Sea.

In the distant Vis Dothraki, on the shores of Lake 'the womb of the world', a hero seems to have risen who will unite the Dothraki.

During this time, the Dothraki were preoccupied with their civil war and did not harass the Free Trade City-States at all, allowing the Free Trade City-States to enjoy a period of peace.

Meanwhile, in Pentos, the jewel embedded in the bay, Viserys's stronghold, a conspiracy is secretly underway.

The ragged prince secretly summoned a group of mysterious guests in the prince's palace. They were once the powerful elite of Pentos, including the governor's family and the ancient Pentos nobles.

They possessed wealth beyond measure; it was said that their bathwater was filled with milk, and even their toilets were made of pure gold.

However, all of this vanished after Viserys arrived.

After the bloody night of cleansing, the survivors of these families harbored resentment towards Viserys and the Ragged Prince.

Their wealth was naturally not stored in just one place, Pentos, so these ancient noble and governor families joined forces with foreign powers to secretly form a revenge organization, hoping to reclaim their homeland in the future.

At this time, through the mediation of a certain force, the ragged prince made contact with the other party and extended olive branches to each other.

The ragged prince explained the reasons for the bloody night to the remnants of the Pentos nobles, showing that he was originally a member of the noble bloodline, and that if Viserys had not forced him to take action, how could he have killed his own people?

The ragged prince wanted to be a real prince, while the remnants of the Pentos nobles hoped to restore their family's former status and wealth in Pentos, so the two sides hit it off immediately.
