Chapter 711
The little rose?? What kind of tiger-wolf words are these! Is this guy trying to be her step-grandfather?!
The Queen of Thorns sighed long and hard.
"The men of our Golden Rose family are as mediocre as the women are outstanding. No family can rely on marriage to remain strong and prosperous."
"Growing strong? Whose family motto is as boring as the Tyrells!
'Winter is Coming' is so easy to remember! 'Growing Strong' is so powerful..."
Liu Bei nodded secretly. The old rose was absolutely right; he only remembered 'Winter is Coming'.
"Cas, for tomorrow's tournament in King's Landing, I hope you win the championship for our Tyrell family."
Liu Bei cupped his hands.
"My lady, rest assured, I will definitely do my best."
To boost morale, Tywin held a small tournament in King's Landing, with participants representing various families.
The Wolf family, still at war, naturally did not participate.
In the afternoon,
The little rose threw a small booklet to Liu Bei.
"Inside are the contestants for this tournament. Study it well yourself, so as not to lose face for our Tyrell family."
Liu Bei smiled.
"Caring so much about your cousin-in-law, others will gossip."
The little rose was numb. Why did words sound so ambiguous when they came out of this guy's mouth!
"Hmph, you'd be better off dead!"
Liu Bei flipped through the booklet nonchalantly.
"Joffrey's representative is still Ashoka? Another Indian?"
"Tywin sent Bucky to compete."
"This martial arts tournament championship has a special task?"
Early the next morning,
Everyone arrived at the palace one after another.
Liu Bei had just stood still,
Captain America and Bucky walked over.
"Liu Bei! I didn't expect you to choose the Tyrell family; you hid it really well!"
Liu Bei?
He sighed long and hard.
"I chose wrong. The Lion family you chose has people and money."
Bucky said in a deep voice,
"You're not bad either. Having become a son-in-law of the Tyrell family, you'll soon be able to rise. We won't let Nick Fury and Hawkeye die in vain."
Ashoka brought two Indians over and stared fixedly at Liu Bei.
"This time, don't think your Golden Rose family will win!"
Liu Bei shrugged.
"You Indians always make some strange choices."
The live broadcast room exploded.
"These people have all been deceived!"
"Liu Bei is too insidious. He clearly chose the Mad King's family but used the Golden Rose family as a cover!"
"Captain America and the others are going all out to deal with the Golden Rose family, but they'll be wiped out by the Dragon Mother's army. Will they be bewildered?"
"You are dealing with Zhou Shuren; what does it have to do with me, Lu Xun!"
King Joffrey, Tywin, Cersei, the Queen of Thorns, Duke Mace, Littlefinger, and others took their seats one after another.
Joffrey glanced at Liu Bei and said to Littlefinger,
"Is that him? The one who saved Margaery?"
Littlefinger whispered,
"Your Majesty, I heard Margaery's relationship with him is very close."
Joffrey looked at Margaery and found that the little rose was indeed staring at Liu Bei, and his mood was not very good.
The Queen of Thorns soon noticed and coughed, pulling the little rose's soul back.
The Queen of Thorns sighed in her heart.
"Child, your fate is already sealed. Love is too luxurious a thing; it's not something we can possess."
Cersei noticed Liu Bei.
"Hey, this little brother is more handsome than Jaime!"
Liu Bei felt Cersei's scorching gaze and thought to himself,
"The Queen is truly unusual; does she see me as prey?"
The tournament soon began.
Liu Bei was drawn first, and his opponent was Meryn Trant of the Kingsguard. This guy was Joffrey's lackey and had even helped Joffrey beat Sansa before.
Liu Bei could tell from his provocative gaze that the matchup had been arranged; Joffrey wanted to beat him until he couldn't take care of himself.
The two approached, and Meryn whispered,
"Pretty boy, you even dare to... hehe."
Liu Bei was very wronged; he clearly hadn't cuckolded Joffrey yet, but the revenge had come even faster!
Both of them were holding unsharpened long swords. Although they might not kill, they could certainly leave people bruised and bloody.
"Whoosh!"
Meryn swung his sword with both hands at Liu Bei!
Liu Bei dodged Meryn's attack with a skillful side step!
Meryn cursed loudly.
"Pretty boy, can you only dodge!"
Liu Bei's eyes suddenly turned fierce. The long sword in his hand deflected Meryn's sword, and a left hook hit Meryn's face hard!
"Pfft!"
Meryn spat out a mouthful of old blood, spat out a few teeth, and fell backward!
Liu Bei walked a few steps quickly and stepped on Meryn's right hand.
"Crack!"
Two fingers were crushed, and Meryn screamed miserably.
The watching nobles all gasped. They hadn't expected this handsome guy to be so ruthless, disabling Joffrey's Kingsguard in one move!
Liu Bei glanced at Sansa, and the meaning was very clear: Meryn's hand was disabled for her!
Joffrey's face turned livid. He had wanted Meryn to teach that pretty boy who was having an affair with the little rose a lesson, but he hadn't expected to be slapped in the face first.
Liu Bei raised his long sword high.
The surrounding crowd erupted in cheers!
Tywin frowned.
"This baron of the Tyrell family has no low martial arts."
The tournament continued, and in the next few rounds,
Liu Bei defeated several more opponents and successfully entered the final four.
Among the final four, besides Ashoka, Bucky, and Euron Greyjoy, the uncle of the poor wretch Theon, the foster son of the Wolf family.
Euron looked at his opponent, Liu Bei, and laughed strangely.
"Do you know why my ship is called the Silence?"
Liu Bei shrugged.
"Maybe it's because you're too ugly and scared them."
The surrounding audience burst into laughter.
Euron was furious.
"Because they all had their tongues cut out by me. This time I returned to Westeros to take back everything that is mine!" ===== CHAPTER 712 =====
