"Do you think Lord Mace Tyrell of Riverlands is an idiot? Davos? ”

The breeze was clear outside the window, the light on the balcony was bright and warm, and the boy's words made Davos shake his head.

"I've never come into contact with the Lordship of the Riverbend, my lord."

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't affect what we're going to do next."

Davos was stunned for a moment, then squatted down and listened intently.

"Mace Tyrell has a sister." Lan Li, who was sitting on a small chair, said while clearing his thoughts: "I'm about eleven or twelve years old......

When he was in Storm's End, the old maestro had given him a detailed account of the siege of the Tyrells, so Lan Li was impressed by this, and now he was preparing to take advantage of it.

"It's small, but it's not impossible. I don't know what it looks like, but it must be prettier than Cersei of the Lannisters, and you can figure out for yourself what it looks like. ”

"So you want to?" Davos vaguely guessed the boy's thoughts, but was still a little uncertain.

Lan Li stared at him without blinking and said, "We want to praise her, how she is compatible with Robert, how she has been rich and prolific since she was a child, and most importantly, how she admires my brother." I heard that when the Duke of Metz was hostile to us, how did he fall out with the family? ”

Thinking about it, Lan Li suddenly flashed a thought, so he said: "Emphasis on adding one, the temperament is very wild, like a she-wolf, and then ......"

He began to talk about what to do about it.

……

There are hundreds of lords and noble families in Westeros, but there are only a few of them of the same level as Baratheon, worthy of the new king, and able to fight with the West.

The Duke of the North is Robert's good brother, the Duke of Vale is Robert's adoptive father, and neither of these two female family members meet the requirements, the Duke of Riverlands is an ally, but a little lesser, although there are also people in King's Landing, but the strength is not good, and the daughters are all married.

No one from Dorne and the Iron Isles came, and the fiefdom of the Baratheon family was the Storm Lands, and if you think about it, the newly surrendered Bends of the Seven Kingdoms will be able to operate, although it is unlikely that they will really succeed in marrying Robert, but Lan Li does not have the luxury of expecting this.

Now he is aiming at Riverlands, mainly to attract attention and cause trouble, or rather, he thinks that if he is lucky, maybe the Duke of Riverlands, who doesn't know whether he is stupid or not, is working on this matter at this time, after all, Cersei's reputation in the Westlands is unstable due to rumors, which is a bad thing for the Lannisters, but it is a rare opportunity for some people.

It would be even more misleading if it was possible to "cooperate" with the Duke of Riverlands to carry out the operation now.

"It's a bit of an honor." The more Davos listened, the more stressed he felt, and finally couldn't help but say, "If it's really a teenage girl......"

"This is a family matter, not a private decision." Lan Li replied: "Everything is that Duke Metz wants the family to have a queen to solve the decline caused by standing in the wrong line, what is the matter with the little girl?" ”

It sounds strange, but it's true, but the brown-haired middle-aged man is still hesitant about it.

"But if there is turmoil because of this, are we not sinners?"

"This little thing can be messed up, and the whole of the Seven Kingdoms has already become a pot of porridge."

Davos gritted his teeth and nodded.

Seeing this, Lan Li said: "The effect may not be very good, and repeating it a second time will also have a high risk, so we don't need to be like last time." You're going to focus on the singer bard and the like, ask them to make new tunes, ask them to sing them, on the street, in front of a brothel, anywhere, as long as there are nobles, and our goal is to let Lannister and my big brother know about it. ”

"You don't have to do it yourself, you can hire beggars and the like to help you make contact, which may cost a lot of money, but there are so many valuables in the Mei Ge Building, I can steal some, you should have a way to cash in."

"Isn't this going to cause you trouble, my lord?"

Lan Li waved his hand.

"No, anyway, the secret passage hasn't passed yet, and it's normal for thieves to use the secret passage to steal things."

……

After discussing the details again, Davos bowed and retreated, looking at his back, Lan Li sighed secretly.

"Hopefully it works."

Thinking about it, he suddenly remembered that the little sister of the Duke of Metz seemed to have been engaged to someone since she was a child......

It's fucking.

He secretly had a headache, only to feel that the development of these things was really inexplicable, just a gold coin, how did he become such a virtuous person.

How stupid must those bandits who came to give them heads to think of running to him.

……

Lan Li didn't see Davos again for the next period of time, maybe the other party was very busy, and something bad might happen.

In short, he was in the Red Keep, and the news was closed, and he didn't overhear much valid information.

So he had to stay all day near the Meige Building and practice his musical instruments.

When he got the profession, he had a lot of memories of using musical instruments, but being able to use them doesn't mean that he can use them, although after opening his mouth and giving an order, all the instruments he can find have been sent over, but his physical condition is really not good.

The flute is short of breath and can only be intermittent. The skin is too tender, my hands hurt when I play the harp and the like, and I don't use the cloth strips on my fingers. Even the violin can be practiced normally, and even Mei Gelou has been letting out bursts of piercing screams all day long.

It's hard to say if this is Lan Li's "lack of learning" or if he is absent-minded because of something.

The recent theft of the Mai Ge Lou has attracted some attention, but as Lan Li expected, no one suspected that there was a ghost, and no one expected that the real thief would be the future king's own brother.

At the same time, the fusion of the dragon egg and the broken bone continued, and it seemed that the progress was slow, but it never stopped.

Lan Li observes these two things every day, while silently waiting for the good news that may come at any time.

Or bad news.

It's just that when the Duke of the North and his party returned, he couldn't stand still anymore, although he wasn't too eager to find that kind of dungeon medium at the moment, but it was still necessary to investigate the situation - he hadn't forgotten that there was a magical Zedi among the northerners.

So when he heard the news, he hurriedly left the Megar Tower with his guards and walked towards the throne hall.

Because of this, he suddenly heard some movements about the rumor incident.

……

"Someone praises my little sister for being beautiful, why should I stop it, is my little sister ugly?" An elegant riverbend accent wafted from the corner of the square outside the throne room, and Lan Li was approaching from the paved road behind him, and when he heard this, he unconsciously looked over.

A tall figure with brown hair that was quite familiar came into view, well-dressed and handsome, but his expression seemed to be a little dissatisfied.

"It's a good thing to have a singer take the initiative to praise that, and you told me to stop it, what's the reason?"

The person who spoke to him was a middle-aged man wearing a cloak, a black woolen robe and breeches, and now the voice was also heard clearly by Lan Li, who had his back to Lan Li's direction.

"It's a conspiracy, Lord Duke, and we can't afford to be taken advantage of."

"Conspiracy? Of course, I know it's a conspiracy, so we can find out who's using us, but why stop the singers? The Duke of Riverbend said, his face full of interest.

"It should be promoted, in this situation, how passive we are, but if my sister can become the queen...... Queen, don't you understand what that means? ”

"It's impossible, Lord Duke. Moreover, Miss Jena is already engaged to the Fossowe family, and to publicize this would be tantamount to public humiliation. ”

"My little sister is indeed engaged, but isn't this yet a wedding roundhouse, don't you know that the marriage contract can actually be dissolved? I have three sons, it's a big deal that I let one of my sons marry the daughter of the Green Apple family, they will only happily break off the marriage contract with us, what can be the accident? Come to think of it, the king is just that—"

The sound didn't last, as Mace Tyrell spotted Lan Li and his party approaching. Of course, he didn't think that his words had been overheard, and in the face of the black-haired boy, he smiled and raised his hand to say hello.

Lan Li responded politely to the other party, and on the surface, he couldn't see what he had done before.

But for now, it seems that the Duke of Metz is still enjoying himself......

The black-haired boy's depression eased a little, and when he entered the throne room, he saw a long-awaited figure.

Stannis, who had not been seen for a long time, was standing in a gap in the pillars of the throne hall near the Iron Throne, while Davos, a smuggler dressed in black cloth, stood behind him intact.

After seeing Lan Li enter, he also secretly made a reassuring gesture to the boy.

Lan Li was completely reassured, and then looked at Eddard Stark, who was standing under the throne and was reporting something to Robert.

Seeing this again, Lan Li noticed that he seemed to be a little tanned, and his cheeks had become thinner, but his spine was still straight.

And not far from his side, Lan Li saw the target he really wanted to see.

However, when his gaze swept over the short Zedi man, a situation that had been overlooked before suddenly came to his mind, and his expression was stunned.

He didn't smell it again.
