Chapter 104: Spider's Fangs (Part )
Aegon frowned slightly, thought for a moment and then said, "We did not find any trace of Varys in the room or the cellar. What the Queen Mother means is... Varys is the murderer of the lord?"
Tommen was extremely surprised: "Hasn't Varys always been serving the royal family? He has been the chief of intelligence since my father's time."
Grand Maester Pycelle: "My apologies, Your Majesty, but there is one thing I need to remind you of. Varys served as the Chief of Intelligence during the reign of Mad King Aerys II. Your father, King Robert, valued his abilities and allowed him to continue in office. Of course, I have reminded you before that this foreign eunuch is not trustworthy!"
Qyburn nodded and said solemnly, "Your Majesty, judging from the current situation, Lord Tyrell's death is closely related to Varys. The arrival of Marquis Garon has caused all the gates of King's Landing to be closed, and Varys should not have had time to escape. So we must take action immediately and check the tunnels of the Red Keep and the beach outside the garden."
Tommen frowned, thought for a moment, and then said, "Okay, Qyburn. In this case, you will be responsible for this matter. As the Minister of Justice, you must thoroughly investigate this case and find out the real culprit behind the scenes. Lord Levi, you go and collect Lord Tyrell's body and send it to the chapel for burial. The queen needs to rest due to excessive grief, so I have to escort her back to the palace first. As for other matters here, you can discuss with the Prime Minister how to deal with them."
After receiving the order, Coben immediately led a team of soldiers to search the tunnels of the Red Castle.
And Count Levier led the others to carefully carry Lord Tyrell's body out of the cellar and walked towards the chapel.
Tommen supported Margaery and prepared to return to the dormitory together.
Cersei suddenly said, "No, you can't go back! There are underground passages in Maegor's Holdfast and the Hand's Tower, and we can't be sure if there are any dangers. For safety reasons, it is safer for you to stay in the White Sword Tower, and the Kingsguard must protect you every step of the way."
Tommen looked at Margaery, who was still immersed in grief, with worry in his eyes. He knew that they were in a very dangerous situation at the moment, but he still agreed: "Okay, mother. Then we will stay in the White Sword Tower first. You have to be careful too!" Then he turned around and ordered the guards around him: "You must protect the Queen Mother's safety."
Cersei looked back at the Great Sept of Baelor and thought to herself. She felt that things were not that simple. Varys's disappearance was too strange, and why did he kill Lord Mace? There must be some conspiracy behind all this.
Meanwhile, at the Blackwater Port, on a merchant ship from Tyrosh, a dwarf woman was treating Varys's wounds with skill. Varys looked very miserable at the moment, with the left half of his face severely burned, the skin and flesh rolled up, and the position of his left eye turned into a horrible bloody hole, with the eyeball gone.
Varys grimaced in pain, secretly regretting his carelessness. He thought everything was under control, but he didn't expect to pay such a painful price because of his momentary negligence.
Not long ago, Varys lured Mace Tyrell to the cellar with private information about Loras. In order to keep Mace focused on what he said, Varys also revealed some of Liu Yuan's overseas situation, especially his close relationship with the Dragon Queen.
As Varys expected, Lord Mace showed great interest in the news. After all, his daughter Margaery was the current queen, and the Tyrell family was now closely connected to the Iron Throne. Moreover, King Tommen had a gentle personality, which made it possible for the Tyrell family to replace the Lannister family. For Mace, he envied the power of Lord Tywin in the past, and now his family could enjoy this kind of scenery, so he naturally did not want to see any potential threats. Therefore, when he heard that Liu Yuan might become their competitor, Lord Mace could not help but feel worried.
While the Duke of Mace was distracted, Varys took the opportunity to approach him, and quickly pulled out a sharp dagger from his sleeve, stabbing it fiercely into the left chest of the Duke of Mace. Varys was once active in the underground world, famous for his excellent stealing skills, and occasionally played the role of a killer, so he met Illyrio. His assassination skills were quite skilled, and this knife accurately stabbed the Duke of Mace in the chest.
However, at this moment, something unexpected happened. The Duke of Mace was a rare person with a heart on the right side, so the knife did not cause a fatal injury to him. Suddenly attacked, the Duke of Mace struggled fiercely. This seemingly dull Duke was not as weak as people imagined. After all, the person who could train famous knights like Garlan and Loras must have good physical fitness.
In panic, the Duke punched, kicked, and scratched, catching Varys off guard. He was hit several times and almost vomited blood. You know, Varys fought his way up from the market when he was young. Although he has been enjoying wealth and glory for more than 20 years, he still retains that ruthlessness in his bones. In the struggle, Varys stabbed the Duke of Metz in the chest with a dagger, one, two, three... five times. He stabbed the Duke of Metz in the chest with force, and this knife directly penetrated the Duke's heart, killing him on the spot.
However, before he died, the Duke of Metz showed amazing tenacity. In great pain, he scratched Varys's face with his hands and even dug out his left eyeball. This sudden change caught Varys off guard. He did not expect the Duke of Metz to be so difficult to deal with.
This unexpected serious injury completely disrupted Varys' original plan. He endured the severe pain and quickly left the Red Castle through the sewer. Before leaving, he ordered his "little bird" to ignite the wildfire hidden under Visenya Hill and Renis Hill. He could use the wildfire to create chaos and then escape from King's Landing. But now, he was seriously injured and could not command in person. Moreover, igniting the wildfire would require huge risks and might affect himself.
Due to his severe injuries, Varys could not do anything more. He left King's Landing through the secret door under the city wall and boarded a Lys merchant ship according to the previous plan. Here, he has his own men, including doctors, who can help him treat his wounds. Although this is not the best option, it is the only feasible way at present.
