- A Summary Of Ice And Fire
Cersei was born a Lannister of Casterly Rock, and the firstborn of Tywin Lannister himself (yes, the firstborn, though Jaime followed shortly after), which, in a just world, would mean that by rights she was Lord Tywin’s heir. But who are we kidding?
Cersei orders him to seduce Margaery. She plans to have Margaery executed for adultery and Osney sent to the Wall to kill Jon. Afterwards, he would be pardoned, raised to a lordship, and become Cersei's consort. When he leaves, Cersei summons Taena and tells her to let Margaery know that Ser Osney fancies the young queen.
Robert used violence and war to climb. He took the iron throne—he had no good claim to it, he just picked up his warhammer and bashed in skulls until he was on the throne. Tywin uses cruelty, war, and cunning as his ladder. He uses all three together and that’s what makes him so successful.
She uses Alayaya as a hostage to ensure Tommen's safe return; Tyrion, however, promises her that whatever happens to Alayaya, happens to Tommen as well, rapings and beatings included, frightening Cersei.
Cersei could not help but smile. Even her lord father could have done no better. At a stroke, she had rid King’s Landing of the plague of sparrows, secured Tommen’s blessing, and lessened the crown’s debt by close to a million dragons.

On a tangent, the theory that Cersei is pregnant loses a little of its spring; we know the three children she has. If she is pregnant, she'll not carry the child to term, at least. The old woman was not done with her, however.
