Chapter 668: Conflict in the Red Keep!
Before the Battle of the Trident began, the Lannister family had already accepted the Mad King Aerys's conditions and marched.
However, they weren't coming to participate in the battle, but to head to King's Landing.
And with the help of Grand Maester Pycelle, they successfully tricked open the gate and began an indiscriminate looting of King's Landing!
Learning of the Lannisters' betrayal and Rhaegar's death in battle, the Mad King Aerys completely lost his mind, ordering Jaime to kill Tywin and also wanting to use wildfire to take the entire King's Landing as a funeral companion!
Watching the Mad King Aerys give the order personally, Jaime, as a member of the Kingsguard, was stunned.
Because he had sworn an oath to be loyal to the Iron Wang Zuo.
But the problem was, letting him execute such an order, how could he be worthy of the white cloak of the Kingsguard?
In the torment, the "Kingslayer" appeared.
Drawing the longsword from his waist, Jaime stabbed the warlock's neck with one sword and then looked at the Mad King Aerys with a full face of coldness.
Looking at Jaime's appearance, the Mad King Aerys was so scared that he climbed down from the Iron Wang Zuo, intending to flee.
But how could Jaime give him such an opportunity? He rushed forward and stabbed through his chest with one sword.
Looking at Jaime, the Mad King Aerys revealed a ferocious smile on his face, "You killed your King..."
"I didn't want to do this, and I didn't want to do this at all, it was you, it was you who forced me to do this!"
Roaring in anger, Jaime's face was currently full of distortion.
Because he had abandoned his oath and also killed his own King!
But what choice did Jaime have? On one side were the fifty-plus thousand civilians of King's Landing, on the other side was the completely insane Aerys before him; no matter how he chose, he would be nailed to the pillar of shame!
But in the end, Jaime still chose to preserve the entire King's Landing, and for this, he even received a derogatory name, which was "Kingslayer"!
Don't think that such a name is a good title; this is like Lu Bu's "Three-Surnamed Slave"—it belongs to belittlement!
And this is fortunate that it's Jaime; if it were Zhang Cheng, he would estimate he would happily accept it!
After all, he hadn't done the matter of regicide just once or twice; hadn't you heard, he was born with a hard life, specifically countering his superiors?
Judge by deeds, not by heart; judge by heart, and there is no perfect person.
Although Jaime had problems with his reputation, his preventing wildfire from burning the whole city to death was enough for the people of King's Landing to build a shrine for him!
After all, the war of nobles, no matter what, shouldn't harm the commoners!
Why Zhang Cheng liked to plunder outward—that was because things his compatriots didn't have, he would personally go and snatch back!
The Lannister family that entered the city didn't have the so-called "not taking a single needle or thread," but instead began to loot the commoners on a large scale.
And Jaime, in order to protect King's Landing, personally killed the Mad King Aerys—what an ironic thing this was!
Rushing all the way into the Red Keep, the Mountain was currently wearing an iron mask, waving a greatsword in his hand like a lunatic, killing anyone he saw, not intending to leave any survivors at all.
And the Mountain's soldiers were also the same, beginning to wantonly insult the maids in the Red Keep and snatch away everything precious!
But just when Tywin had just entered the Red Keep, a team of cavalry rushed out from afar.
Looking at this scene, Tywin's face revealed a grave expression, "Are they here so fast?"
But just when Tywin saw the flag clearly, he froze in place, because the fluttering flag wasn't the Baratheons' or the Starks', but the Black Dragon flag he was familiar with!
Entering King's Landing, Zhang Cheng looked at the commoners being looted all around and immediately questioned, "Tywin, what are your people doing? Don't you know that this place already belongs to the Baratheon family?"
"Is Count Count Count Celingen questioning me? Could it be that I conquered King's Landing for the Baratheon family without any reward?"
Hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Tywin explained with a full face of smiles.
However, his expression already showed that him doing this kind of thing seemed very normal!
Facing Tywin saying this, Zhang Cheng roared, "Immediately, right now, stop your behavior!"
"Count Count Count Celingen, are you serious?"
Looking at Zhang Cheng before him, Tywin couldn't help but become serious.
"I am very serious, because the looting of them does not belong to the scope of the transaction! If you really want to do this, then explain it to Robert behind!"
Looking at Tywin with disdain, Zhang Cheng rode his horse toward the Red Keep.
And watching Zhang Cheng's back, Tywin was currently also unable to help but become grave.
Because when Rhaegar was defeated, everyone understood who the next master of the Iron Wang Zuo would be.
And Tywin looting King's Landing like this was undoubtedly putting eye drops on the Baratheon family!
Even if he occupied King's Landing first, don't forget, the Lannister family were fence-sitters! Compared to nobles who chose sides, fence-sitters were the most annoying kind!
Because you either join, or you die; fence-sitting just waits for both sides to kill you!
The Tyrell family was much smarter; they besieged Storm's End but didn't attack—no, to be precise, they couldn't conquer it!
Thirty thousand troops, attacking a castle with fewer than a thousand people, fought for a full year—who would believe this besides Genghis Khan!
In the Red Keep, the chaos was currently continuing.
Watching the Count Count Celingen family appear, the Lannister family stood up to stop them, but were pushed over by Zhang Cheng directly.
Facing the such barbaric Zhang Cheng, the Lannisters who stood up immediately drew their sharp swords, but were frightened by that black flag.
Because the fluttering thing was exactly the Black Dragon flag!
"I don't care what you are doing, now all get out of the Red Keep for me!"
Scolding sternly, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but roar.
Looking at Zhang Cheng before them, the Lannister family's soldiers were frightened.
Because as the person who had personally hammered the Mountain to wear a mask, Zhang Cheng's name was simply a nightmare!
"Where is that idiot Clegane?"
Questioning a soldier, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but speak up.
"Ser Clegane is above!"
Speaking to Zhang Cheng, the soldier immediately became fearful facing those cold eyes.
Hearing this sentence, Zhang Cheng rushed up without looking back.
Because compared to other things, he wanted even more to let that gentle Wang Fei live!
Regardless of the original positions of both sides, Elia Martell's gentleness made Zhang Cheng feel that she shouldn't die in the hands of a beast!
Rushing into the Red Keep, Zhang Cheng watched the already dead Wang Fei Rhaenys being carried out by soldiers.
Looking at this scene coldly, Zhang Cheng said to Amory beside him, "You are truly a bastard!"
!
"Hmm?"
Suddenly hearing this sentence, Amory immediately said, "Is Count Count Count Celingen feeling indignant for the Targaryens?"
"Shut up, you damn trash, she was just a child, and a girl who couldn't inherit the throne! You could have completely handed her over to the Dornish, why did you kill her!"
Pressing Amory's neck against the wall with his elbow until he felt suffocated, Zhang Cheng stared at him coldly.
If it were said that Prince Aegon was killed, Zhang Cheng would accept it calmly, because him living was a threat, but the girl was different; she couldn't inherit the throne, and besides, she was only a three-year-old child!
"Ah! My child, my child!"
Just as Zhang Cheng intended to teach Amory how to salute a Count, a familiar voice came from above.
Backhanding Amory with a slap, knocking out his teeth, Zhang Cheng turned and rushed up.
And watching Zhang Cheng's back, Amory's eyes were full of resentment.
But regarding this, the attendant knight of the Count Count Celingen family saw it.
Rushing to the room above, Zhang Cheng watched the Mountain grabbing Elia Martell and throwing her onto the bed, and immediately roared, "Mountain! What are you doing?"
Turning back to see Zhang Cheng, the Mountain roared, "Count Count Celingen!"
"I'll go to your grandfather!"
Kicking the Mountain before him away, Zhang Cheng smashed a fist into his face and said, "Born, even the Wang Fei is someone you dare to touch? I never even thought about it, yet you actually dared to make a move..."
