When Osney arrives, Cersei butters him up with an offer to join the Kingsguard and a chance to bed her again, provided he accomplishes a couple of tasks. First, Cersei wants him to seduce, and hopefully bed, Queen Margaery; this will enable Cersei to execute her lawfully.
Cersei replaces her twin in her bed with their cousin, Ser Lancel Lannister. Tyrion blackmails Lancel into spying for him. Cersei threatens Alayaya, whom she thinks is Tyrion's whore, and Tyrion threatens Cersei's children in return.
Shortly after Joanna's death, while the family was still in mourning, the Princess of Dorne arrived at Casterly Rock with her two youngest children, Elia and Oberyn Martell. Though Tyrion was kept out of sight during the visit of the Martells, Cersei promised to show him to Elia.

It must have screwed Cersei up so much to be told she alone was the bestest, beautifulest little girl in the whole kingdom, because she was meant to wed the dreamy prince (who was pretty much a freaking grown man, ugh), only to be flat out rejected by his father the king at age ten.
However, Cersei's plot backfires when Lancel, now a member of the Faith Militant, confesses to his affair with Cersei and his role in Robert's assassination, and accuses Cersei of incest, prompting the High Sparrow to arrest her.

After Myrcella was sent away to Dorne in a marriage-alliance, Cersei assumed she was suffering away from her family, not suspecting that Myrcella would actually find happiness once she was free from Cersei's control and not even want to come back to her.
