56 The storm is rising

Although he felt that the two little guys were a little anxious, Lan Li still decided to continue to follow the predetermined plan, because he thought about it and thought about it, and felt that this was actually not a big deal.

However, this thought disappeared without a trace after the actual incident, and made Lan Li truly realize what kind of creature the bear child is.

Soon after the conversation, the two children suddenly discovered a secret passage behind the wall of the bedside during an indoor play, and then the twins, who seemed to be very timid, were only scared to pee because it looked too dark inside.

Obviously, in this case, they couldn't remember Lan Li's "advice" at all, so the panicked screams provoked the guards to break in, and then the secret passage entrance in the Mei Ge Building completely came into everyone's sight.

……

"Meg ordered the execution of all the craftsmen who built the Red Keep, we should have guessed it a long time ago." When the Duke of Tywin of the Westside learned of this, he told his three younger brothers.

"How did those two children discover the secret passage?"

"When I was playing, I accidentally touched the switch." The Duke's youngest brother, Jillian Lannister, said amusedly: "I heard that they also asked for credit for Robert, who had rushed over, and they said it was a great achievement. I'm curious how our Lord Redwing managed to educate his two precious sons so interestingly. ”

"It's a great achievement." The other brother, Tigate Lannister, snorted coldly, "I'm more curious about how our Lord Robert is going to reward these two little sons of the Riverlands, and old Redwin is not very happy to send his two sons as hostages." ”

"It's not about us for the time being." The duke's second brother, Kai Feng, said as he looked at the eldest brother who was listening quietly.

"I heard that Stark went to Dorne with his men."

"Because of his sister?"

"I can't think of any other reason than that." Kevon said, meaningfully, "Rhaegar has taken the wolf girl for so long, what should have happened has already happened. This may be an opportunity, our good niece is no worse than any girl, as long as Robert ......"

"It's probably not a big deal." His brother Jillian frowned, "I heard that our Lord Robert is in love with that Stark wolf girl. ”

"Love so much that you can't help but go to a brothel every two days?" Tiget, with bright blond hair, said mockingly, "I also heard that he had an illegitimate daughter in the Vale. ”

"It can only be said that he has a lot of energy in some ways, but that doesn't affect the relationship sometimes. Which lord has no illegitimate children outside. Jillian said, suddenly thinking of something, and added.

"Except for our big brother."

After hearing this, the person in his mouth just glanced at his brother silently, and then said calmly: "I already have some ideas about Cersei, but for now, we should consider Jaime. Now that Robert is ready to sit on the Iron Throne, the Kingsguard of the previous dynasty may not be able to count. ”

The Kingsguard is a noble position that protects the king, vows not to marry for the rest of his life, and when he joins the guard, he renounces his previous status and rights in exchange for a white robe of honor for life.

However, not everyone is eager for this honor, at least Duke Tywin has always been unhappy that his heir has been made the Guardian of the Woods by the Mad King of the previous dynasty. He is such a qualified son, and being an Iron Guard means that his son has to give up the inheritance of the Lannister family in the Westland, which is obviously ill-intentioned.

……

There are many nobles and nobles in King's Landing, each with their own ideas and demands, the victors are ready to share the benefits, the defeated want to recoup the losses, and the changes brought about by a war are enough to affect the fate of the entire family, let alone change the dynasty.

However, despite the turbulent undercurrents, the Red Keep's secret passage still attracted their attention.

The Tully family of the Riverlands, the Tyrells of the Riverlands, the Lannisters of the West, the Arryn of the Vales, and the subordinate lords under their respective commands, all of whom had reached a certain level of family size, could not ignore this matter, and some were even shocked into a cold sweat.

There had been rumors of a secret passage in the Red Fort before, but it didn't attract much attention, because there were no clues and sufficient evidence to prove it, but at this moment, the facts were in front of them, and they couldn't afford not to pay attention to them.

The simple secret passage of Mei Ge Lou is actually not too terrible, after all, it is the residence of the royal family, except for some big nobles who have a marriage relationship with the royal family, most nobles do not feel that they can have anything to do with Mei Ge Lou.

But since even the most important building in the Red Keep has a secret passage, what about the rest of the world?

The Prime Minister's Tower, the Throne Room, the White Sword Tower, the Virgin House, and even the sanctuary in the castle...... As the heart of the entire kingdom, the Red Keep is naturally the center of politics and power.

It is difficult to say that the nobles of Westeros, large and small, have not lived and worked in this place.

Countless political decisions, countless intrigues, poisonings, betrayals, filth, power struggles......

People mostly keep their disguises outside, but who still wears a mask in their room?

Not to mention that the secret passage can not only be used to eavesdrop on news, but also allow people to enter the royal living rooms without hindrance.

Even if the king's place of residence was the same, wouldn't it be even more insecure elsewhere?

Many people are eager to know how many secrets the entire castle has, so the day after the entrance to the secret passage was exposed, a thorough search began in the Red Keep. Unlike before, searches that perceive the severity of the problem are even mixed with destructive nature.

Then, as expected, one after another, people discovered the secrets that existed in one building after another, and it was difficult for everyone who looked at the shocking thing to keep their composure-

The entire Red Keep seems to have been in shambles.

As a result, before the new king was crowned, the proposal for the re-establishment of the Red Keep was already on the temporary royal table.

……

In general, this is actually a good thing, after all, it is now a period of change of dynasty, and no matter what happened before, it is basically impossible to count, even if there are many dirty things that may be known, it was also carried out in the previous dynasty, and the new king can still be held accountable?

However, some people are happy and some are worried, most people are happy to hear about the exposure of the secret passage, but a bald fat man who loves to spray powder on his body is in trouble.

As the head of intelligence, it is difficult not to suspect that Varys, the octopus, has long been aware of the existence of this secret passage, after all, this man has always been known for his surprisingly mysterious and unattainable intelligence capabilities, and now it seems that it is because he has mastered this secret passage of the Red Keep?

If so, how much secrecy did he have?

Countless hostilities, both overt and covert, were cast on the chubby-looking, unthreatening sissy eunuch, which made the person concerned miserable for a while.

In the previous dynasty, he was the Minister of Intelligence, and he was quite a mad king, and now that the Red Keep has changed its master, he still retains his original position, which naturally cannot be Robert's rough lines of unscrupulous enemies, but Varys has proved his ability and worth in front of him.

That's why he kept his position.

And yet now......

He felt that this was very strange, why was the first boy just fallen into the secret passage, and someone behind him went to scare the other couple, and then they found out?

Have an enemy discovered their secrets? And then use children to target themselves?

Many faces flashed through Varys' mind, but none of them were sure.

What he didn't know was that because of the unreliability of the twins, he didn't step into the trap set by someone's words, otherwise the situation would have been worse.

But for now, he's already burned out because of this.

How to dispel the suspicions of others, how to cover up one's past deeds, how to regain the trust of the new king......

However, the occurrence of one incident temporarily suppressed the limelight of this matter, and also relieved some pressure on Varys-

Eddard Stark, Duke of the North, has returned from Dorne and is currently on his way to King's Landing, while Raven has received a letter that the Duke's sister Lyanna Stark, Robert Baratheon's fiancΓ©e, and the werewolf girl who started the war, has died of illness in Dorne.

Then came the question of the future queen.
