287 Fame & Initiative

After choosing to actively expose "identity", the impact was much greater than Lan Li expected.

At first, this news only circulated in a small area, because the son of the former prime minister was not very old, and he usually had no contact with others.

It wasn't until a public occasion when the old prime minister took his ruddy-faced young son around to prove that his son was no longer as weak as before, that the news spread completely.

So there was another uproar in the Red Fort.

There are those who don't believe it, although Lan Li has done many strange things in the past, there are still people who don't believe that he can "connect with God", or that many people don't want to believe that there really is a god at all.

However, even if there are many reasons not to believe it, it is an indisputable fact that the young heir of the old prime minister has become a healthy little one, and that the old prime minister himself has recovered.

Therefore, there are more people who choose to believe, awe, fanatical, vigilant...... The emotions variete.

So when he walked on the road, no matter what time of day, Lan Li always attracted people's attention, and many people ran to visit him in private.

Including Lan Li's cheap brother Robert, including the Chancellor of the Exchequer Mays, who was not very good with Lan Li before. Tyrrell.

They have a lot of questions, but they tend to be in two main ways, on the one hand, how Lan Li could become the "apostle" of the Seven Gods, and on the other hand, what he can do.

The former, Lan Li, claimed to have sensed the presence of the gods during a prayer in the riverbend, and then tested Yunyun and finally won the favor of the gods.

He did not reply to the latter explicitly, but reiterated the "rule" that you can't make random moves.

All in all, as soon as this identity appeared, it attracted everyone's attention-

Regardless of whether this identity is true or not, it is an indisputable fact that Lan Li cured the old prime minister who was poisoned and dying, and gave him a healthy physique.

The nobles are very desperate for their lives, and it is naturally impossible to be indifferent in the face of this method, Robert is very happy about this, and after understanding that Lan Li is still a "person", and not some kind of godly existence, he has not solved the problem.

Others' attitudes towards Lan Li are more subtle, as evidenced by Chancellor of the Exchequer Mays. Tyrell is the most representative –

In the past, this one didn't give Lan Li a lot of faces, because he thought that his family had raised Lan Li himself, but Lan Li was not grateful, and even came to fight against him everywhere, which was really not very exquisite.

So even if he knew that Lan Li's methods were strange and had many strange abilities, Mace. Tyrells remained hostile to him.

However, now when the Chancellor of the Exchequer spoke to Lan Li again, he changed his previous attitude and became polite, even a little cautious.

This change of attitude may seem exaggerated, but in fact the root cause is simple - the belief in the Seven Gods has been rooted in Westeros for thousands of years, and its influence has long been in the soul of all people.

Even though Lan Li had many special features in the past, in the eyes of others, he was just a wizard and the like, and this kind of person was born among the people from time to time, and at the same time, those foreign pagans were also strange one by one?

However, now that Lan Li pulled out the seven gods, the situation is different, secretly people can't think clearly, but on the surface, Westeros basically believes in the seven gods except for the north.

The aristocratic class is generally not as pious as the commoners, but they do not dare to have the slightest crooked mind towards the gods in the sky, let alone that Lan Li can also "cure diseases".

In fact, if it weren't for the fact that Lan Li's identity was not completely certain, people's attitude towards him at the moment might be the same as that of their ancestors.

The change in attitude of the aristocracy was one thing, and the church in King's Landing responded positively to this.

As the person who personally supported Lan Li to ascend to the throne, the new archbishop of the church naturally did not refute this, on the contrary, he also trumpeted that Lan Li was the favored person of the gods, and he was also the substitute chosen by the gods, destined to bring life to this decaying world.

He said it himself, and he even mobilized the monks of the Church to say the same.

Some monks and even archbishops were very dissatisfied with this, thinking that it was blasphemy, but this dissatisfaction dissipated after receiving secular feedback.

For the remarks that Lan Li is the person chosen by the gods, the people of King's Landing are very sought after, and even feel that one by one they suddenly realize, after all, compared to ordinary nobles, Lan Li is really too special, and his fair attitude and strange methods when trying criminals are not in line with the function of the Heavenly Father as one of the seven gods?

So quietly, Lan Li's reputation among the people has risen to a higher level, and it has obviously surged in the direction of "inhuman", and even faintly exceeded the scope of secular authority.

This is a good thing, at least Lan Li's security work is much easier because of this, and even without his request, there are many civilians who take the initiative to help maintain order in the city, probably in addition to piety, there may also be a desire to let the gods see their diligence and kindness, and then go to heaven after death.

However, this is not entirely a good thing, for example, some people who were already very afraid of him have even turned into panic, and panic will not make these people afraid of it, but will be more proactive.

……

"He'll find out sooner or later, yes, he'll find out sooner or later that we're hiding from his brother!"

Before the blush subsided from her cheeks, the beautiful queen with bright blonde hair on the bed suddenly thought of something, so she grabbed the chest of her brother's shirt next to her, and said sternly, "Before he finds out, we should end it!" Yes, it should have ended a long time ago! ”

These words made the blonde Jaime, who was paralyzed on the side and had a leisurely expression, widen his eyes and looked at each other in a daze, as if he didn't expect his sister to say such ruthless words.

Seeing this, Queen Cersei didn't say anything, but got up directly and gathered her lower skirt, and then was busy combing a few strands of long golden hair stuck to her forehead due to sweat stains, "It's time for you to go back to Castle Rock City, my father has long wanted you to go back to marry a wife and have children and inherit the Lannister family business." Jon Sr. had been reluctant to let you go, but now that we're at war, we can make that request. ”

"I love you, Cersei." Jaime, who was slumped there, said with an embarrassed expression.

"But you should love our lives even more." Cersei replied without hesitation, and when her brother opened her mouth to speak, she added, "And Joffrey, Tomman, Messila, and all of Lannister!" ”

These words silenced the blonde knight, and then he stood up and said, "What can Lan Li do even if his methods are very strange? I'm going to see if my sword can cut off his holy head!" ”

As he spoke, he jumped off the bedside, bent down to pick up the clothes from the carpet and quickly put them on, gritting his teeth as if he wanted to do something.

"You're crazy!" Seeing this, Cersei hurriedly grabbed him, "If you can kill him, we will be very dangerous, if you can't kill him, we will be even more dangerous!" ”

"I'd rather die than lose you!" The blonde knight replied.

These words made the queen's heart harden and softened, and then in the face of her brother's affectionate gaze, she unconsciously recalled all kinds of warm scenes from childhood to adulthood, so the original idea that was still very firm instantly dissipated.

It's just that this can't hide the panic and jealousy in her heart because of someone, and after biting her lip, she said, "Then let's go back to Kaiyan City and get out of here!" Stay away from him! ”

"You are the queen, I am the Iron Guard of the Royal Forest, and my father is leading the troops outside, so there is no reason for us to go back."

"Then what do you say?!"

Cersei's questioning was sharp, and Jaime was silent.

He was actually full of jealousy of that person, but he was just embarrassed to show it.

However, no matter how you think about it, this problem must be solved.

Obviously, it doesn't seem like a wise choice to do it, so ......

"We can't leave, but we can let him go." The blonde knight said slowly.

"Do you have a way?" Cersei asked.

"The Iron Isles."
