Chapter 146 145. Free access
There is a dining hall in the Prime Minister's Tower, which is large enough to accommodate hundreds of people dining at the same time.
Perhaps at the peak of the Prime Minister's position, this hall will be overcrowded, but now the dining hall is so empty that two direwolves can even take a leisurely stroll.
The people brought from the north ate at a long table.
There are more than twenty escort teams and more than thirty maids and nuns accompanying the young lady, including Lan En.
In fact, he was sitting between Arya and Jory Kelso, opposite Sansa Stark, who was blushing and bowing her head.
When Ed came back from the royal meeting, a golden hand-shaped badge was already hanging on the left side of his chest.
This is why the position of Prime Minister is called the 'Hand of the King'.
His expression is very ugly.
It can be seen that he was really given a ‘kick in the face’ at the imperial meeting.
But when he walked to the dinner table, this man with a cold and hard temperament still forced out a smile to face his daughter and subordinates.
“The affairs of the kingdom are much more complicated than those of the simple Winterfell, which makes me upset. But on this table, I think it’s better not to worry about these troublesome things. Let’s eat in peace. Right.”
Lan En could somewhat imagine how a person who landed in a high position would be ostracized and treated harshly by the people below him or his colleagues.
No one can do anything about this.
Ed took his seat at the main table.
"Sir, I think I need your help with something."
When Ed started to eat, Lan En, who was separated from him by Aria, spoke to him.
“Can you give me a pass to enter and exit the Red Keep? As you know, I am in pursuit of exotic flora and fauna. Staying in the Red Keep will prevent me from exploring King’s Landing’s harbor complex. There is a market in the city."
Before Lan En could finish speaking, Aaliya's eyes widened after she had just taken a sip of soup, she swallowed hard and continued shouting.
"Dad, I want to go too! Let me follow Lan En!"
Ed Stark looked at his daughter, who was more lively than most boys, and then at Lan who was eating normally, and then nodded.
"Okay, Arya. It'll be nice if it saves you some trouble in the Red Keep."
"Lan, please keep an eye on her. You fight for Stark." If you win the trial by combat, the exotic animals and plants are the promised reward. I will give you a signed pass. You can ask for the receipt after you buy something outside. I will reimburse you when you come back. The total amount is one hundred. Golden dragon. And what I collected directly will be kept by you.”
Ed did not choose to be confused about Lan En’s ambiguous agreement with his little daughter, but instead gave a clear and generous one. answer.
The purchasing power of Golden Dragon is higher than Oren.
In Temeria, Lan En could buy a suit of qualified heavy armor for almost 300 oren, while in Westeros, a suit of plate armor plus an ordinary war horse armor only cost about 100 gold dragons.
Robert's tourney prize amounting to tens of thousands is a prodigal level of consumption.
As for Ed, Lan En felt that he was obviously a man who emphasized rules and credibility, and in short, he had a traditional sense of honor.
"That's enough, my lord. I will be optimistic about Alia. In the past, we have actually been working together very happily."
"Ha!."
Aaliya wanted to laugh happily, but as soon as she started laughing, she was glared at by an old woman across the table and stopped.
And Lan En also had a free hand, stretched out to the side and pressed down the wolf's head that Nymeria came towards with her tongue hanging out.
~~~~~~
Early the next morning, Arya led Nymeria and knocked on the door of Lan En’s room, and excitedly walked towards the door of the Red Keep. Get out. Lan En carried the Bear School steel sword and Arondette on his back, and Aaliyah carried the 'sewing needle' on her waist.
"Lan En, I think something will happen if you go out carrying this sword given by the Lady of the Lake. It is so gorgeous! The place we are going to is the market. I heard the bard say that there are fish and dragons in that place. A mixed bag?”
“A mixed bag of fish and dragons”
Lan En pursed his lips and patted his forehead, not wanting to admit that this girl had been following him for more than a month.
After receiving this long sword, Lan En once tried to cut it when he was alone.
Its center of gravity and blade are impeccable, and it feels even more comfortable in the hand.
But the problem is, as Alia said, it is too gorgeous for a weapon that is really going to be used in combat.
Just the weighted ball on the hilt is a three-way roaring bear head.
The lifelike carving craftsmanship is definitely expensive from a human perspective.
After pulling out the sword blade, the runes all over the sword surface will gradually light up as you slash, accumulating power.
The light is filled with runes from the position close to the hilt of the sword. After filling to the tip of the sword, the next slash will directly consume the light, and the power of the slash will be doubled!
Not to mention the exaggerated practical effects, just the visual effects are amazing.
"Do you think it will be better in the Prime Minister's Tower? Or how much better it will be in the Red Keep? Arya, it's because I don't trust these people that I always carry a sword with me."
While talking to Arya, Lan En smiled and nodded to say hello to a gold robe passing by, which was the King's Landing guard.
"You're back in your family and you feel safe. But I'm telling you, Alia. Keep the intensity and sensitivity you had 'over there' and don't lose it. Over here But I don’t feel safe at all.”
Lane’s words evoked Arya’s feelings when she was in Vizima.
Although it was only one night, the experience of being cornered in a hotel by a cannibal leader and a group of elite warriors that night, without knowing anything and without any warning, was still very stimulating.
The feeling as if your every move is being seen by others, and then holding a sword to your throat.
This is the power of intelligence and power.
Aliya's original bright smile gradually narrowed, and she also lowered her voice like she did at Vizima, and spoke softly without turning her head.
“Do you sense the problem here?”
"Oh, tell me something you don't know. Yesterday's king's decision was spread throughout the Red Castle before it was discussed by the Royal Council. I guess these people know exactly what we had for dinner last night."
Blue En put his hand on Aaliyah's shoulder and patted it.
"You have to carefully observe, analyze, and learn to deal with it. I can't always be here with you. You know it."
When it comes to parting, Aaliya is no longer as nervous as before. reacted.
She has a strong heart and has been prepared for the magical world. She is already very happy that Lan En can come to stay with her for a while.
"I will pay attention, Lan En. Please teach me how to use a sword!"
". When I say 'learn to deal with it', I don't mean for you to just cut it like me! You are just an ordinary person. You You shouldn’t dream of reaching my level, right?”
“You should learn a little bit! It’s a bit late.”
“Okay, I’ll teach you for a while, and I’ll get back to you. After you leave, ask your father to find another teacher for you to continue teaching. You still have time, so don’t be in a hurry.”
