Edward did not stop at that but gathered the small folks who started to learn and told them what this man said, making his life turn hell when he was in Storm's End. That was why Edward preferred maester Qyburn and the late maester Jones who supported his move. He did not like the closed-minded people in the Citadel and would like more people like Qyburn.

Cersei and Petyr Baelish, who was looking at Sansa Stark with some dirty gaze imagining god knows what, were there in the chamber as well. Cersei had been looking since the start at the girl with some disgust in her eyes since she considered all people from The North were just savages and dirty people, but she managed to hide it well since she wanted to use the girl's innocence in her favor.

No one was happier than Petyr Baelish when he heard about what happened to Ned Stark. He was the one orchestrating all this, and he finally got the chance to take his revenge from the Starks for taking his beloved Catelyn. Although Brandon Stark did not get his chance to injure this idiot in the past, the two Stark boys taking Catelyn away was a crime in Petyr's eyes.

Baelish found his days more enjoyable in the past six months since his rival, Varys, went missing since no one knew where he disappeared to, and there was no one that could stop him or stood in front of his schemes in this city anymore except the queen. The problem that he faced, though, was Varys's little birds. He thought that since Varys was not in King's Landing, he might have a chance to take those birds to his side.

But the problem started after Varys's disappearance by one month. It seemed that the little birds found another master or Varys was still alive as he could not control them. In fact, that was Edward's doing. He would not let Varys's good network and organization go to waste or fell into someone's hand, so he could not find anyone better than Qyburn, who had controlled them in his past timeline, to take them under his wing.

Edward had already gained Qyburn's full trust when he allowed him to do what he wanted and provided him with all the materials required for his passion. Qyburn was one of Edward's good hands right at the moment. He would serve as Edward's hand when Stannis was out of Storm's Eye. In fact, Storm's Eye was under Jon Clinn's control at the moment, with Qyburn by his side since Edward took Stannis with him to Essos.

"He would not do that. My father knew how much I love Joffrey, and he was the king's closest friend. Please, your grace, there must have been a mistake. Summon my father, and he will tell you." Said Sansa as she pleaded in front of Cersei and the group. It seemed that even what happened in front of her the other day before was not enough to change her naive character.

"Sansa, sweaty, you are innocent, and we all know that. Yet, you are the daughter of a traitor. How can I allow you to marry my son." Said Cersei with her sweet voice, trying to trick the young girl in front of her to do what she wanted. No one was like Sansa when she was this naive. She was the easiest person to control with some good words.

"The girl in innocent your grace. She should be given the chance to prove her loyalty." Said Petyr Baelish since he would not allow the young girl that he wanted to fuck to get killed like that. He could not have her mother for himself, but he had the chance to get Sansa. He had already started imagining fucking the girl since the first day she arrived at King's Landing.

"Fine. Little darling, you must write to Lady Catelyn and your eldest brother. The word of your father's arrest would reach them soon without a doubt. They better hear that from you. If you wanted to help your father, you have to urge your brother to please the king. Tell him to come to King's Landing, and he can swear his fealty to Joffrey. But you have to convince your father to confess his crime." Said Cersei as she continued to spill lies from her mouth. She wanted Ned's confession since it would take much burden from her.

But of course, if she could convince Rob Stark to come to King's Landing without much effort, she could kill him and all the Stark House and get done with it. Cersei was like her father in this regard. Tywin preferred to end a house rather than think of the future troubles they would bring to him.

Cersei was thinking and scheming in her heart how to get everything she wanted. She even planned to send Edward a letter telling him to come to King's Landing and bend the knee to the true king of Westeros. She always wanted to get Edward's vast lands here in Westeros and Essos.

Cersei started to get a little arrogant after her little victory over Robert and Ned Stark and thought that Edward was the same. She had the belief that every man with a dick would think of the same thing. If she had consulted her father before doing that, Tywin would humiliate her for bringing him more trouble. Not to mention that he thought that his chances of winning against Edward were minimal, but his fucking daughter's timing was horrible.

Cersei was trying to anger the beast when they did not even get the chance to handle the other lords of the six kingdoms. Although Cersei thought she was smart and tried to take her chance when Edward was out of Westeros with most of his armies, she did not take into her consideration that Edward had made two allies before he went to Essos. Plus, Edward left enough men to protect his kingdom. He was sure that forty thousand men were more than enough to take care of the Lannister until he returned.

Edward had already promised the Tyrells to marry his son, Axel, and their daughter, Margaery, when he returned from Essos. He also had made up and solved his problems with House Martel, whose relationships were very close at the moment. He promised his daughter, Theresa, to Doran's son. That was why Obyren himself was with Edward in his campaign in Essos. Well, the man came to enjoy himself, and who was Edward to stop him?
