Chapter 163 162. Secrets in the Book
“Your guard is truly outstanding, Lord Stark.”
Petyr Baelish had a look of fear on his face smile.
Looks like he is still regretting and worrying about what he said in the king's tent.
“Thanks to this swordsman, His Majesty is safe and sound.”
The second half of the sentence was spoken while looking at Lan En walking over. The young man nodded slightly in greeting.
After Ed exchanged a few words with him with a cold face, Petyr wisely left the prime minister who was obviously in a bad mood.
Ed and Lan En looked at each other's leaving figures and lowered their voices to each other.
"He did it! I'm sure!"
"The king will definitely pursue this assassination. Do you want to tell him?"
Ed was speechless for a moment and gritted his teeth bitterly.
If he could be honest with the king about the current problem, he might as well do it before the group competition.
It is for the sake of the stability of the kingdom that the grumpy Robert cannot be known.
"Looking at the brighter side, the fact that he used such an explosive method undoubtedly means that he is anxious."
Lan En crossed his arms and placed his fingers on the leather of his upper arms. There was a light tap on the outer armor.
"In his eyes, you are no longer obsessed with tracing the cause of the old Prime Minister's death, but you are so anxious because of this matter? No matter how you think about it, there are big problems."
Ed's mind is now in a mess. , if he were not concerned about the safety of his good brother Robert and the stability of the kingdom, he really wanted to step down as Prime Minister right now and return to his own place in Winterfell in the north.
"This is too messy, Lan Enhu. Maybe I am really not suitable to rule in a place like King's Landing. When this mess is over, I may leave immediately."
" If you can realize this, you are already better than many people. Let's get back to the topic, have you gotten any clues from others these days?"
"The Wang Family Grand Master gave me a book. The book is a very boring one, about the records of aristocratic families and bloodlines. The former prime minister had been reading this before his death. ”
"Reading?" Lan En raised his eyebrows. "What a coincidence. I have a little confidence in my reading skills. Come back and show me."
——
The king was assassinated, which should have shocked the Seven Kingdoms. event.
But at this time, the energetic king appeared on the high platform and showed his safe and healthy body with a loud voice.
And said that the tournament will continue with the remaining archery competition.
But everyone knows that the kingdom's intelligence system has already started taking action.
Lan En and Ed, after the prize money for the group competition had been set, took the escort and set off back to King's Landing City.
When we arrived at the Prime Minister's Tower in the Red Fort, a raven flew toward the top of the tower, croaking.
Ed raised his head and frowned at this scene.
Raven is a means of communication in Westeros, and its positioning is similar to that of homing pigeons.
But because they have been carefully cultivated in the school city, they are stronger and smarter than wild species, and are better able to escape when encountering predators such as eagles in the wild.
But because of this, this communication method has some high-end attributes and cannot be used for ordinary things.
Flying towards the Prime Minister's Tower, without even thinking, I was looking for Ed Stark.
"Lan En, that book is on my desk. You go over and read it yourself. I have to pick up a letter. Qiao Li has the key to the study."
The escorts present Eddard brought them all from Winterfell, there was nothing to be shy about.
Although the guard captain felt strange about Ed's trust in Lan En, he was not jealous or dissatisfied.
He has a carefree temperament, and he also knows that a smart mind deserves to be taken seriously.
Ed went straight to the raven loft on the top of the Prime Minister's Tower. Jory Kelso shrugged at Lan, "Let's go up too."
Walked all the way to the Prime Minister's Tower. , and on the way passed by the cubicle where Aaliya was communicating.
Jory Kelso took out the key from the pocket of his leather armor, then opened the study door and turned sideways to give up his seat to Lan En.
"I'll just stay outside."
"I'm tired."
After Lan En entered, the first thing he saw was the hard-cover tome on the desk.
Indeed, as Ed said, this is a book that is enough to make ordinary people feel resistant just by looking at it. Lan En just pursed his lips, then walked over and opened the page.
"Mentos, global record and logical analysis, ready to start."
"The order has been received and is being executed."
Lan En's eyes are like video recorders, the creatures in his brain Under his command, the brain began to record all the information reflected on the retina and carry out logical analysis.
This mode of operation will be very tiring, specifically a headache. But if the goal was just one book, Lan En didn't think it was a big deal.
The sound of "clatter, clatter, clatter" was heard.
Lan En's posture didn't look like he was reading a book, but like he was flipping through a book to pass the time.
But there is no doubt that Mentos has written down all the information.
"The Arryn family, the Stark family, the Tully family, the Lannister family, the Baratheon family, eh, wait?"
The dazed eyes suddenly became sharp.
Mentos captures the subject’s spark of inspiration and connects inspiration with logic.
A chain of clues was built in Lan En's mind.
“The Baratheon family’s motto is ‘caste tenacity’. They have married into many families, and the children they gave birth to are all Baratheons with black hair and black eyes.”
< br>"But the iconic blond hair of the Lannister family is said to be the color stolen from the sun by the Lannister ancestors in the mythical era. So they intermarried with others, and many of their children were blond. But... "
In front of Lan En's eyes, Mentos summoned an image of Prince Joffrey. The blond hair was so bright that it was even dazzling in the sun.
Lan's hand turned back the pages of the book and stopped at the pages about the Baratheon family.
My finger accurately clicked on several marriage cases.
“The Baratheon family has had more than one marriage record with the Lannister in history, but all the children in the records have black hair and black eyes!”
Gendry’s appearance was so fascinating Toss was placed opposite Joffrey, and there was no trace of paternal blood relationship between the two.
"'Caste toughness'. No wonder!"
Everyone in the world is convinced by the legend of the Lannister family from the mythical age, believing that the blond hair stolen from the sun will definitely be better than that of mortal blood. Black hair spread.
However, the former prime minister repented when his neck was buried in the soil, and began to trace the king's illegitimate child, as well as the appearance of the children born from the marriage between the two families in history.
No wonder the Lannisters press so hard.
Co-authored: Are all the three crown princes today the result of extramarital affairs? !
The queen did not fulfill even the slightest childbearing obligation for the king or the kingdom!
If this comes out, Robert will hang that woman alive!
Lan En smacked his lips, the absurd life of the nobles always refreshed his outlook.
The biggest problem has been solved, although there are still some small problems, such as why the former prime minister suddenly doubted the legitimacy of the crown princes' blood lineage, and Petyr Baelish's role in this matter
But there is no doubt that the main contradiction was discovered by Lan En.
This mess of shit is almost over, and Lan En feels that he can finally leave Aria with a stable environment.
He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Huh——"
But before the breath could be finished, the sound of rapid footsteps coming from the top of the tower rushed straight into the study.
The study door was pushed open with a "bang", and Ed held on to the door frame with a solemn and tangled expression, looking at Lan En.
Lan En was about to express his shocking conclusion, but Ed had already spoken first.
“The war is about to begin, Lann!”
The young man's cat eyes blinked as if in a daze.
“Huh?!!!”
