Tyrion receives a command from Cersei that Pycelle is to be released. Tyrion agrees but while he’s at it he turns the messenger (cousin Lancel) to team-Tyrion. Later he visits Shae and admits to himself that he loves his life and Shae. Simon and Mackelly get a little sappy over the romance.
Chapter Review:
Lancel Lannister visits Tyrion Lannister after midnight. Tyrion’s not asleep but pretends to have been. Lancel is your typical high-born, good-looking, recently knighted 16-year-old. He treats Tyrion with disdain, referring to him as imp. Cersei wants Grand Maester Pycelle released and Commander of the Gold Cloaks Jacelyn Bywater arrested (presumably for not releasing Pycelle on her command). Tyrion is pleased about that.
Tyrion turns the tables on Lancel when he accuses him of killing the king to bed the queen, and won’t Joffrey be interested to learn this news. Lancel crumbles in an instant. Tyrion reels him - he could keep this from the new king if Lancel were to report all of Cersei’s comings and goings to Tyrion. Lancel agrees. Tyrion fears for the lad. Cersei would certainly kill him if this betrayal were to reach her ears, and should he live long enough to see his cousin Jamie again, well, he’d kill him too.
Tyrion visits Shae. He realizes that the pain of Tysha’s betrayal is finally behind him. He’s in love with Shae and with his life as Hand of the King.
