259 Raven

The dagger medium seems to have been repaired, but Lan Li didn't plan to use it that night, because experience has proved that after entering the dungeon, time in the outside world is still fluid, and as the Minister of Justice, there are actually many people who are watching his whereabouts openly or covertly, and it is not convenient to "disappear".

Lan Li was ready to take some time off to use the dagger after this time, and he also thought about his "seeing" by Cersei.

It wasn't a serious matter in his opinion, because Cersei was the only one who saw it, and even if she revealed it, it would be impossible for others to believe it.

At the same time, even if it is known by others, Lan Li has no fear. Now it is not the same as before, he is no longer the fragile little boy he was at the beginning, although some things have been concealed, but it cannot be said that he is afraid of being discovered.

However, Lan Li was still ready to take the initiative to talk to that person, because he was afraid that the other party would think deeply about it. But he didn't want to just return to the Red Castle when the cheap sister-in-law sent someone to invite him to dinner.

He was very surprised by this, but he did not refuse, and after dealing with some official business, he directly accepted the invitation when the time was approaching.

The location is in a quaintly decorated side hall in the Meige Building, and there is no one else except the parties.

Stepping through the gate guarded by two guards and entering, Lan Li bowed to the queen, who was dressed in an emerald green robe, and then sat down across from her.

The table in front of him was already full of food at this time, the candles were burning quietly, the table full of meat and vegetables looked very rich, and the silver trays dotted with delicate eyes seemed to be a unique sight.

There are no customs such as dinner together in this world, and most of the socialization between nobles is still on the banquet, but at this time, this kind of private meeting is not so particular, and you can do whatever you want.

"Recently, I received a letter from Castle Rock City, and Tyrion also asked about Lord Lanli's current situation."

After a greeting ceremony, the blonde woman in front of her smiled and spoke to Lan Li. It seems that she thinks that these words can bring her feelings closer.

But in fact, Lan Li didn't have any contact with the little demon in his memory over the years, and he kept communicating for the first few years, and then slowly broke off.

"I haven't seen Tyrion in years, but I miss it." Lan Li replied with a smile and didn't explain anything.

"Father is going to send him to King's Landing to get a position, and it won't be long before you see my brother." Cersei's tone was very polite, but Lan Li could feel the complex emotions in the other party's heart at this time, jealous, vigilant, curious, and awe......

So Lan Li went straight to the topic and said: "In the Divine Wood Forest, the queen has seen it?" ”

Apparently she didn't expect Lan Li to be so direct, and despite the purpose, Cersei didn't seem ready to communicate directly here, and even the smile on her face became reluctant after hearing this.

"But I don't want Lord Lan Li to have that kind of ability." She replied dryly, but then she calmed down, and the conversation changed, "What does Lord Lan Li think of the question of the King and my son Joffrey?" ”

"Hair color?"

"Yes." Cersei said, her face worried, "I can't see anything now, but if it's a curse, there will be a day when it will just change the color of your hair?" I've been apprehensive about this, but since you're a professional, you should know something? ”

She was talking nonsense, but unfortunately she obviously didn't expect that Lan Li already knew everything about her, and said without any difference after hearing this: "I am also very skeptical about this, but there are no more clues." In case you didn't know, Your Highness, there are actually many subtypes of magic, and I'm not good at spells like curses or blood magic. ”

Cersei secretly breathed a sigh of relief at these words, and then her turquoise eyes moved, and she raised her hand to brush the blonde hair on her forehead intentionally or unintentionally, "Then I don't know what Lord Lan Li is good at?" ”

"I'm good at getting people to tell the truth." Lan Li said solemnly: "This can make me fully qualified for the job of Minister of Justice, Her Royal Highness should know that I have indeed done many things during this time, and this is completely dependent on the second." ”

Thinking of the various rumors about the person in front of her for a while, she suddenly felt that she was very reckless, but before the meeting, her face was as usual, but she still barely stabilized her mind and put on a curious look, "How did you do it?" ”

"This is the power of the old gods of the north."

Lan Li replied, "The old gods have given me the ability to interrogate, as long as I am alone with the prisoner, then whatever I ask, he will answer, and I can't lie." ”

"This, really?" The queen's face changed slightly.

"Of course it's true." Lan Li nodded, "Would you like to try it, Your Highness?" ”

Cersei shook her head hurriedly, and then didn't dare to lead the topic to this anymore, chatting about some trivial things in life, and how her children admired Lan Liyunyun, and finally pretended to be unwell, and ended the conversation hastily.

Lan Li took the initiative to retire.

After seeing Lan Li leave, she breathed a sigh of relief, and then hurriedly walked to the upper floor of Mei Ge Tower, found her younger brother who was guarding the door of the king's residence, and faced her brother's puzzled gaze, she said in a low voice: "Don't stay in the same room with that Lan Li in the future." ”

"Why?" James, who was dressed in a white robe, raised his eyebrows when he heard this, then thought of something, and said with a smile: "Are you afraid that I will fall in love with that blue ceremony?" Honestly, he's pretty — "

"Shut up!" Cersei glared at her brother sternly, "Now is not the time to joke, think about what he's been doing all this time!" ”

"What did you do?"

The blonde knight was stunned when he heard this, and then after thinking about it, he understood, and his face was a little ugly, "You mean ......?"

"He can ......"

……

Early the next morning, when Lan Li was attending the Imperial Meeting, he noticed that a certain blonde knight guarding the door of the conference hall was full of vigilance when he saw him, which made him instantly think of his conversation with the queen last night, and he secretly had a headache.

It wasn't Lan Li's wish to take the initiative to expose this, but since Cersei had seen her "specialness", sooner or later she would associate what Lan Li had done with special magic, so that she might be even more jealous of her thoughts.

So it's better to take the initiative to tell this "secret" by herself, so as to save her from thinking about it.

Lan Li was not afraid that she would think of anything else, but she was afraid that she would think that she could read minds and already knew her secrets, so it would be very risky, and there would be many extraordinary variables.

Now......

"Is this a retreat and a run away?" Muttering secretly, Lan Li felt that this was not a good thing, but he didn't think it was too serious for a while, so he put it in his heart and didn't think about it anymore.

The topic of discussion at today's meeting was the fact that the nine free trade city-states had already shown signs of sending troops. Arryn thinks that they will storm King's Landing, because the combined naval power of the opposing side will completely crush their own side, and once King's Landing is captured, then the rest of the Seven Kingdoms will not be a concern.

So King Robert ordered Stannis, the Minister of the Sea, to hurry up and replenish his navy, so as to replenish his forces before the war, and also prepare for defensive warfare.

Because of the impression of wildfire defending the city in his previous life, Lan Li mentioned it, but he didn't say anything other than that - he basically didn't know anything about the military aspect.

In addition to doing his job, Lan Li was also thinking about how to get the new archbishop on the throne, but compared to this matter, he was more concerned about the dagger.

Every time he saw the dagger, Lan Li had an urge to clench it, as if a strong man who had been hungry for a long time saw a sumptuous meal.

So on the afternoon of the fourth day, he finally couldn't hold back, locked the door and tightened his grip on it.

Then Lan Li found that he hadn't entered the dungeon, and holding the dagger tightly made an extra crow appear in the room-

Three-eyed crow.
