The Dornish departed, just as they had come, and after a perfunctory marriage with the Iron Throne for a while, they hurried out of King's Landing.

This situation has made many people feel very strange, those who believe in the sincerity of the marriage of the Dornians are confused by the perfunctory attitude of the Dorn, and those who do not believe in the marriage, and believe that Dorn is going to carry out a conspiracy, are at a loss because the Dornish have done nothing.

Aside from the Blue Rites, no one in King's Landing knew what was going on, but whether they knew it or not, the future of Westeros was destined to change as a result.

In other words, inside and outside the turbulent Westeros, new changes are happening every day.

In the valley, the three rebel lords were surrounded and suppressed by other valley nobles, and they cowered in the castle and never came out, and the attacking valley nobles were also ruthless to attack-

Most of the castles in the Seven Kingdoms are thousands of years old, and this kind of historic structure has stood the test of time, and it is basically very easy to defend and difficult to attack, and a rash attack is bound to cause huge losses.

So the valley side fought a war of attrition, which is very common in this world, and the army besieged the city and prepared to slowly wear down the three rebellious nobles.

However, judging by the information obtained by the Iron Throne, if the war of attrition is really fought all the time, then this war will have to be fought for at least a year or more before it ends-

The supply aspect is borne by the nobles of the valley, which does not need to be burdened by the Iron Throne, and even the Iron Throne side can watch from the sidelines, but it is difficult to make an example of the war of attrition, and at the same time, there are too many variables, which is definitely not the best policy.

Lan Li was clearly opposed to this in the Imperial Council, but his opposition was useless, because no one wanted to bear the wear and tear of a strong attack, and forcing the nobles of the Valley to attack would only provoke resentment and even resistance.

And so the war in the valley began to be consumed.

The battle on the Crab Claw Peninsula has progressed, and after the initial chaos, the bounty plan has initially been put on track, but it will take some time to completely defeat that side.

In addition, the investigation team that Lan Li had previously "sent" to the Riverland also returned one after another, but did not bring any new clues, only claiming that there was a group of monsters causing chaos there, and there were witches running rampant.

Monster Lan Li knew that he had vaguely heard of a group of monsters, but the witch made him a little baffled. However, the investigation team had no more clues, they only heard that there were witches and monsters mixed up there, but no one had seen them with their own eyes, and it seemed to be very mysterious.

Lan Li was curious about this, but unfortunately he needed to keep an eye on the situation in King's Landing at the moment, and there was no way to investigate anything himself.

There is nothing else to do, the Seven Kingdoms are generally peaceful, and the summers of several years in a row have made the farmland fruitful in various places, from farmers to lords, the people of Westeros are getting richer and richer, and occasionally there is news of nobles bullying men and women, and there are lords from all over the world to solve it, which basically has nothing to do with the Iron Throne.

Lan Li in King's Landing began a move to govern the evil forces in the city-

It was not for nothing that Robert changed his hair color, and the deal with the Seven Gods was that the gods were responsible for "dyeing his hair", and Lan Li had to put the law and order in King's Landing for this.

This is very simple for him as the Minister of Justice, the underworld forces in King's Landing have their own backers, but those backers can't rely on Lan Li's side, and at the same time, he already has a basic control over the golden robe (the capital garrison).

There are people who want to have a background, so the thieves and gangsters in King's Landing have suffered during this time.

Under the high-pressure control, people are constantly broken hands and feet, or locked in dungeons, waiting for the night watchmen of the Great Wall of Northern Desperation to come to collect people, and in serious cases, they are all hanged, and even new corpses are hung high on the walls of the Red Keep every day, rows and rows for onlookers.

Some people came to Lan Li to protest, and some people secretly negotiated with him, but whether they were protesting or negotiating, they would all be scared out of a cold sweat after seeing Lan Li, and at the same time, they immediately launched an interrogation of the people around them after they went back, and they didn't care about interceding for others at all.

For a time, many people in King's Landing were full of resentment towards Lan Li, but those who supported him hated him dozens of times, and every day there were even many civilians running to the Red Keep to chant Lan Li's name.

It was hard not to attract the fat king's attention, but he laughed with pleasure, thinking that his brother had made Baratheon look good by doing so—

Robert didn't care who protested or anything, and he didn't care about the collusion of those forces, or that as long as he didn't make any big trouble, he basically didn't care, good or bad.

Therefore, after passing the initial stage, some people in King's Landing gradually got used to this high-pressure situation, and before they knew it, the security situation in the entire King's Landing City had also improved significantly.

……

Just as King's Landing launched the "Anti-Gang and Evil" operation, Westeros was also moving in all directions.

Long ships for transport or war were built one after another in the shipyards of the free trade city-states, and slave soldiers from all over the country trained daily in preparation for the war that would soon begin.

The sound of horses' hooves rumbling like an earthquake rang out from all over the city, and it was the ranks of the Dothraki who had crossed the continent of Essos, and they had prepared to ally with some of the free city-states, for their god of horses had been urging them to go west, to Westeros, to kill, to find the door.

The addition of the Dothraki was a source of ecstasy for many people, as the nomadic army numbered no less than 100,000 warriors, but there were also some who were apprehensive about it.

"We ought to have spread the faith in the same way we saved Westeros, not by the barbarism of conquest and invasion."

In a dimly lit temple, a slender red-robed woman knelt under a majestic statue and spoke to a scruffy monk behind her without looking back.

"What can we do with the decisions made by the Supreme Reverend." The sloppy red-robed monk sighed and said, "You and I have been in contact for so long, and there are not even a hundred people who choose to support us, what are these people enough for?" ”

"The addition of the Dothraki gives those people confidence and don't want to change their minds." The red-robed woman's voice was hoarse, and even faintly revealed a trace of pain, which made the sloppy red-robed monk frown unconsciously.

"But that's a pseudo-god method, Bennello abandoned the true god and chose to collude with the false god in order to achieve his goal, and he is no longer worthy of being a supreme priest."

The sloppy red-robed monk ignored the words, and instead asked worriedly, "Are you alright, Melisandre?" ”

"The union with the Dothraki is doomed to failure, and I see it all in the flames." The hoarse voice said to itself, "They are doomed." ”

The sloppy red-robed monk's brows furrowed even more, so he moved towards the woman kneeling under the idol, but before he could take two steps, the other party let out a scream.

"Don't come near me——!"

The red-robed monk did not stop moving forward, but his steps increased for a while, but when he saw the other party's face clearly, he couldn't help but staggered back.

I saw that the delicate heart-shaped face of the red-robed woman was pale at the moment, her eyes were closed and her expression was painful, and in the center of her eyebrows, there was an oval bulge that kept trembling, as if something was struggling under the skin, trying to break through the epidermis and get out.

"Melisandre - you, what's wrong with you?" The sloppy monk asked with a shocked look on his face.

No one responded to his words, but as these words fell, the bulge and tremor on the red-robed woman's forehead became even more serious, and finally when a strange tearing sound passed, a blood-dripping ice-blue eye suddenly opened from the center of her eyebrows, and after shaking a few times, she stared at the sloppy monk who was frightened not far away.

The invisible fluctuations spread, and the expression on the face of the monk who was full of nervousness couldn't help but be stunned, and then his face became dazed.
