The clouds in the sky converged and formed, and after Lan Li glanced at it a few times, it dissipated again, but before he could think carefully, an old voice suddenly asked in his ear.

"Lemon, better? Do you look stronger than you did yesterday? ”

Looking sideways, there was a hunched white-haired old man sitting on the side of the ox cart, and now he was turning his head to look at him with a concerned expression.

Lemon?

It is common for commoners to name their children with various plants and fruits, such as lemons, tansies, turnips, castors, beans, etc.

I'm a civilian now?

Lan Li was secretly surprised, but did not speak, but nodded.

The other party smiled at this, revealing a mouthful of teeth that had been reddened by chewing on a plant similar to betel nut for many years.

"Then you have a good rest, and I'll call you when I stop." The old man said, patting Lan Li's head, and his expression seemed to be quite close.

Lan Li nodded, pretending to be tired and closed his eyes to rest.

However, at this time, he was constantly listening to the words around him, and with the strange clouds he had just seen, he gradually had some eyebrows in his heart.

……

In the 37th year of the conquest, Aegon the Conqueror died of a stroke on Dragonstone at the age of 64.

He was succeeded by his eldest son, Inis.

King Inis was weak and incompetent, and his brief reign was marked by chaos throughout the Seven Kingdoms, most seriously with the Church.

The Targaryens had intermarried for generations, but this was in serious conflict with the Church's doctrine against incest.

The Church acquiesced in this during the Conqueror's lifetime, and even more so in his polygamy, but after his death, this contradiction immediately surfaced in the face of an incompetent king.

The first outbreak of the conflict came in the younger brother of King Inis, Meg. The Targaryens married a second wife and committed bigamy, and although the result of this incident was that the king's brother Maegor took his second wife into exile in a free-trade city-state, the church was apparently not happy about this.

This also leaves a hidden danger for a second, more intense outbreak of contradictions.

In the 41st year of the conquest, King Innis arranged for his daughter to marry his heir according to family tradition, so the Church of the Stars in Old Town, the seat of the archbishop of the Church of the Seven Gods at that time, issued a stern statement, excommunicating the king from the church and scolding him as a monster king, so the people responded, and countless hostile eyes were aimed at the Targaryens, who had ruled them in the first place.

At that time, the Church not only had two armed forces, the assembly of the poor and the sons of the warriors, but also had the right of self-government.

After the Starry Sanctuary's announcement, the Sons of the Warriors set about strengthening the defenses of the Sanctuary of Sihuai at the top of the Rhaenys Hill in King's Landing, and rallied their men to come to their aid, preparing to use it as a base against the Royal Red Keep on the High Hills of Aegon.

Some members of the frenzied Poor People's Assembly even climbed the walls of the Red Keep, which was not yet fully completed, and infiltrated the Red Keep to assassinate the king.

Although they did not succeed, they frightened the weak king into fleeing with the royal family back to Dragonstone, the home of the Targaryens, and King's Landing was completely overrun by the Church.

King Innis died of illness shortly after his return to Dragonstone, and although he had a son of his own, it was not his heir who ascended the throne, but his younger brother Meg.

Maegor's mother was Visania-A-Pacific, the conquistador's queen who challenged all those who denied Megar's rule after her son's coronation on Dragonstone.

The head of the Son of the Church warrior accepts the challenge, but on the condition that the more ancient and cruel Trial of the Seven Sons be initiated.

King Meg fights.

……

This is roughly the series of events facing the current era.

Lan Li found that the people around him were talking about the statement made by the Archbishop of the Star Sanctuary, and it was obvious that this "freshness" had not yet passed, and with the words he had heard from others, he was finally able to determine that they were being summoned to King's Landing, to defend the Temple of Reflection at the top of the Rhaenys Hill of King's Landing, and to confront King Innis, who had not yet fled.

But this line did not conflict with the three things he had seen before-

[Knighted Knight]

[In the name of the son of a warrior, he participated in the Church's trial of the seven sons of Maeg I and won]

[Guiding the Children of Chaos to the Right Path]

……

Lan Li felt that these things were more difficult than the other.

It wasn't too difficult for him to be knighted, because the tradition in Westeros was that a knight could make someone else a knight, and if he did it literally, he could get a sum of money and bribe a destitute knight to canonize him.

Although this canonization is extremely dishonorable and formal, and there is a risk of being questioned as fraudulent, it can be regarded as nominally obtaining the status of a knight.

However, if you consider the second thing, Lan Li can't be so foolish at all.

The Poor Man's Assembly and the Warrior's Son are the two major armed forces of the Church, but compared to the Poor Man's Gathering, which can be joined by anyone, the Warrior's Son, which only accepts knights, needs to be strictly screened, and if all kinds of knightly skills are not enough, they don't want to join.

As for Lan Li, he had never been trained as a knight at all, let alone that he not only had to join the son of a warrior, but also win the trial of the seventh son.

The rules of the seven-son trial are similar to those of ordinary one-on-one martial arts trials, but the number is seven against seven, and the seven-son trial cannot be stopped unless the parties withdraw the complaint or the judge dies, which means that the two parties are either you die or I live.

This is not enough, even if it is not impossible to win against ordinary enemies, but this trial is a duel between Westeros's historic church and a new secular dynasty, and the participants in it cannot be mediocre, but only the top masters carefully selected by the two forces.

A rookie who has not yet become a knight to fight against the top knights of the continent?

Lan Li didn't think that he could win by hitting him head-on, and he didn't even have a clue how to sneak into the trial.

In addition to this, the third task also made him very confused.

Neither in the history books nor in the memories he had, the term "Child of Chaos" never appeared, so who or what was it?

And how to guide?

Countless questions made him feel very powerless for a while, but in general, Lan Li did not lose confidence because of this, after all, this is just a copy, depending on the situation, to fight hard, it is really impossible to complete these tasks, and it is a big deal to die.

So he didn't think much about it, and his eyes scanned the surroundings, and finally he looked at the old figure in a rainbow cloak who was leading the way on a horse at the front of the group.

The procession heading in King's Landing was a mix of ordinary civilians and members of the Poor Assembly, and the "militia" of a group of poor people was usually led by the son of a warrior.

The rainbow cloak on the other party's body can prove that he is the son of a warrior, then it must be this group of militiamen, or the leader of this team, Lan Li can't ignore him.

Because no matter what means are used to win in the end, joining the knightly order of the Son of a Warrior is the most basic requirement.
