I also have Gregor·Clegane temperament, I can't control myself at all, and my work is too rough.

Moreover, Rhaegar personally made him a knight. Regardless of whether this behavior was to show goodwill to Tywin, Gregor dared to "give back" to Rhaegar's family, which is also the most disgusting thing about this person.

Seeing that the scene was as expected, Black Earl continued to preach with a righteous expression, "If my guards hadn't arrived in time to stop this beast, Seven would have unleashed thunderous fury over this scene!"

Words of condemnation sounded like thunder in the throne room.

Some nobles couldn't bear it anymore and whispered among themselves, their faces full of shock and anger.

"Is this happening?"----"This the Mountain is too cruel!"----"How is Princess Elia doing now?"

Everyone is actively showing that they are righteous people, clearly looking down on the evil deeds of the Westerlands Clegane Castle Knights.

The discussion became louder and louder, and Tywin·Lannister's expression became more and more gloomy.

Robert I was happy to see it, but his adoptive father and Hand of the King coughed slightly to remind him.

He had no choice but to slam down the smooth armrest of Iron Throne and shouted, "Quiet! Let Titus Earl finish speaking first!"

With the king's cooperation, Black Earl stood on the spot, patiently waiting for the discussion to subside, and then pointed the finger at the many actions of Westerlands's army after entering the city. "You may not be clear yet, Gregor ·The Westerlands army where Clegane belongs used to trick Lion Gate into opening the city gate in the name of "King Qin". As soon as he entered King's Landing, he began to brutally massacre the people in Xicheng District!

They broke into houses, robbed property, burned merchants' shops and houses, and even attacked the elderly, weak, women and children——"

"What nonsense!"

Warden of the West, who was the loudest person in the family, couldn't hold it back this time. Tywin snapped at Earl's words.

"After my army entered the city, although there were some loosely disciplined people, they would never do such a cruel thing! Lord Titus, please don't fabricate facts and deliberately smear Westerlands!"

The lion's roar finally sounded.

Some nobles in the throne room already acted like they were watching a show, preparing to watch how the Westerlands lion competed with the Reach star shuttle.

"Fabricated facts?"

Black Earl sneered, his eyes fixed on Lord Tywin's unflappable face without mercy.

"I have witnesses - dozens of people from the west of Yicheng are waiting outside the gate of Red Keep at the moment. They have witnessed the atrocities committed by the Westerlands army with their own eyes, and they still have scars left on their bodies by being beaten and attacked by the soldiers!"

The opponent came prepared, and Tywin lost his momentum.

"As for the evil deeds of Gregor, the members of my guard, the servants in Maegor's Holdfast, and even Elia Martell himself can all testify!"

He paused, his words carrying a strong accusation.

"If you, Warden of the West, hadn't secretly instigated all of this, how could Gregor have the courage to act so unscrupulously and maliciously in the heart of the royal city? How could Westerlands's army kill so many people inside the capital and implicate innocent civilians?"

"Bloody mouth!"

Lord Tywin looked cold and hard, but could not find any evidence to refute it.

He did tacitly allow the soldiers to "properly loot" after entering the city. This was to create chaos and break away from the previous image of Mad King Hand of the King. However, he overestimated the quality of his soldiers and did not expect that it would turn into localized massacres.

What's more, I didn't expect that Gregor was so drunk from poppy milk that he committed the despicable act of torturing and killing babies in full view of the public.

Even if he could coax the wet nurse a few words and suffocate the House Targaryen baby with a pillow, it would be better than smashing Rhaegar's son into pieces on the spot - and he did not instruct Gregor to attack the Martell women.

He looks down on Dorne's Sunspear, but he won't offend House Martell needlessly.

Tywin looked calm, but he could only bite the bullet and forcefully defend. "Gregor·Clegane is surly by nature and has never obeyed discipline. This must have been caused by his own reckless behavior!

As for the military discipline issue of Westerlands soldiers, Casterly Rock is willing to take responsibility and compensate the victims' families for their losses----

But what needs to be emphasized is that I had no intention of instigating chaos beforehand! Your Majesty, please be careful!"

Robert I is sitting on the throne, happy to see Tywin deflated.

The other party always looked arrogant, but today, he finally lowered his head.

In fact, Tywin is not as tough as many people think - when he faces the king of House Targaryen, sometimes he knows how to be polite.

But for Baila Theon who had just sat on the throne, he obviously was not as cautious and respectful as before, so he suffered a lot.

Tywin's previous intention was actually very clear. Targaryen Dynasty was about to die, and Westerlands procrastinated until the last moment before choosing to join the rebel army, so he had to show some "sincerity".

In his rehearsal, when he placed the bodies of House Targaryen's children in front of Iron Throne, everyone would understand that House Lannister had betrayed the Targaryen royal family.

Even a reckless king like Robert·Baila Theon should know that as long as Rhaegar's child remains in this world, he will not be able to secure Westeros's "kingdom".

Since the new king prides himself on being a hero, someone else has to do the dirty work for him----

However, his plan did not go smoothly.

Black Earl looked at Duke Casterly Rock being forced to admit defeat, and thought to himself that this was the effect he wanted.

At the court meeting, publicly exposing the evil deeds of Gregor and Westerlands troops can not only suppress Westerlands's momentum and stop them from stretching their claws, but also win the praise of his "justice" from both the government and the public.

Even if he is seeking justice for the descendants of the previous royal family----

On the premise that there is good approval within the alliance and there is no doubt about his political leanings, this is obviously even more rare, and it will also appear that Starpike Earl is impartial, upright, courageous and fearless.

Seeing that Tywin was forced by him to "confess part of the crime", Hei Earl adjusted his rhythm in time and bowed slightly to Iron Throne: "Your Majesty, it is not that I intentionally provoke a dispute, I just don't want innocent people to be wronged, and I don't want the reputation of the new dynasty to be damaged.

Such a tragedy should not have happened at the beginning of the new dynasty. An explanation must be given to the baby who died tragically, to Princess Elia, and to the people of King's Landing!"

Tywin heard this, his face became even more livid, and the other party actually pursued him and beat him fiercely.

Deliberately murdering women and children is certainly not a glorious thing.

Some things can be done but not said.

Only when something is done can you talk about it.

Once something is started, it must be completed. If it is not completed - then there is something to be said for it.

"Since Lord Tywin seems to have different opinions on these accusations, let's see what the parties involved have to say----"

The corner of Hei Earl's mouth raised an expected smile, and he confidently signaled the guards in the throne room to report to the outside world and escort the person Gregor·Clegane to the hall.

After a while, a series of heavy dragging sounds of iron chains were heard outside the throne room.

Accompanied by the nervous and suppressed shouts of the guards, a huge creature soon appeared at the entrance of the bronze door and appeared in everyone's sight.

The giant thing is moving forward, accompanied by the sound of chains dragging the floor.

Every sound seemed to hit the hearts of those who saw him, causing the discussions in the throne room to gradually subside.

Four tall and strong Red Keep guards pulled tightly on four fine iron chains as thick as forearms. The other ends of these iron chains were firmly locked on the limbs of the Giants known as "The Mountain".

But even though it was bound by iron chains, this moving behemoth still gave off a breathtaking sense of oppression.

With a height of nearly eight feet, everyone had to look up at his appearance; a body of 400 pounds, wrapped in an equally heavy armor and stomach, slowly approached; his face was stained with dried blood, and his cloudy eyes were half-squinted. When he scanned the people in the hall, he showed an undisguised fierce light from time to time——

It seemed as if he would break free from the chain at any moment and pounce on the crowd.

"Oh my god----this is Gregor·Clegane?"

"Yes, Westerlands has a lot of gold mountains, the Mountain" but this one----"

"He is even taller than the rumors say! He looks like a giant beast in human form!"

Before this, most people had only heard of the huge size of Gregor. Today, the hacker Earl revealed his brutal deeds. Only when he saw this behemoth with his own eyes did he truly understand that the name "The Mountain" was by no means a name for nothing.

As soon as he stood in the palace, he stood still like a moving hill, making everyone nearby look small and cramped.

Black Earl does not belong to this category. He walked slowly to Gregor who stopped, looked up at the giant man who was nearly two feet taller than himself, and said in a calm tone with a hint of solemnity, "Gregor·Clegane--Sir? In front of His Majesty and all your lords, tell me, who ordered you to break into Red Keep with the intention of killing Rhaegar's children and disrespecting Princess Elia?"

Gregor's Adam's apple rolled, and his voice was as unpleasant as the friction of boulders. "No one asked me to do it--I did it myself."

He glanced at the Duke in the crowd, stayed for a while, and then looked down at the black-armored Earl in front of him. He had obviously made up his mind that he was the one who bit him to death, and he didn't recognize anyone else.

It was not because of his loyalty, but because he took it upon himself, he had the chance to be rescued by Duke Casterly Rock, who he thought was very powerful.

Black Earl had expected that he would answer like this, and did not press the question. He just turned to Robert I on the throne and the nobles in the palace, and said in a loud voice, "You have also heard that Gregor admitted his crime, but he was unwilling to reveal the person behind the scenes. But you might as well think about it--

How could a knight from Westerlands, no matter how cruel he was, dare to commit such a heinous crime in Red Keep without the support of a powerful force? How could he dare to commit such a heinous crime in front of everyone, as if there was no one around?"

His words were like pebbles thrown into a calm lake, stirring up waves.

The nobles whispered to each other again, and their eyes unconsciously turned to Lord Tywin, who had a livid face.

Everyone present knew that if this matter had nothing to do with Warden of the West, it would be difficult for anyone to believe it.

Titus laughs from the bottom of his heart:

Oh, the Mountain?

It sounds like he is very big and powerful, but in fact, in the eyes of a truly big man, he is just a tiny grain of sand.

The "little" The Mountain cannot prove Tywin's crime, but it can make Warden of the West disgraced----

Comparison between the body shape of "The Mountain" and ordinary people:
