Lan En came to this world in order to send Arya home intact, so he crossed the rift where the celestial spheres converged.

Who knew that the news I got at this time was that Arya was fine, but her family seemed to be about to be cut down.

In Lanne's senses, Eddard Stark is a good guy.

On more than one occasion, the witchers had heard the Prime Minister arguing with the King about the assassination of two children on the other side of the Narrow Sea in the convoy to King's Landing.

Ed never compromises, for the sake of chivalry, because of his own morality.

In the face of an enraged Robert, he was as unwavering as a glacial rock.

Lane didn't hate this kind of person, on the contrary, he admired it.

"Let's go, let's go back. As much as I don't think your father, as the Hand of the King, knows nothing, it's always good to have a little more information. ”

After patting Alya on the shoulder, the two walked down the ramp of Steel Street, preparing to return to the Prime Minister's Tower in the Red Fort.

On the way back, the two saw many vendors, commoners, and jugglers, carrying their own tools for making a living, and rushing outside King's Landing.

That cheerful and hurried face didn't look like something bad, but rather like a rush to make money and have fun.

Rann remembered the tournament held for the prime minister's inauguration.

Recently, there is no New Year's Day, and this is the only event that deserves such a movement.

It seems that the venue for the tournament will be outside the city.

But now even Arya, who loves to watch the excitement the most, is not in the mood to mix, after experiencing many things in another world, her basic self-control is already very good.

As he approached the Red Keep Gate, Rann showed his pass issued by Eddard and returned to the Prime Minister's Tower.

It was lunchtime, and before Ed could step into the slightly empty dining hall again, Arya grabbed her dad and pulled him into the corner.

"Aria, don't mess around!"

Sansa, who was already sitting at the table, shouted at her sister.

In her eyes, this is just another sister's crazy action.

Ed thought the same thing, rubbing his tired face and opening his mouth.

"Alya, if you want to play, you can go and find it"

"Lord Jon Arryn died unusually, right, Dad?!"

Ed's tired expression froze suddenly, and he even had to slow down for a moment before looking at his little daughter with disbelief.

"How is it?"

"Don't worry about it yet, there are a lot of people here, come with me."

Ed was stunned by his youngest daughter's words.

Is the phrase 'people have many eyes' that Arya can understand?

"Alya, don't bother Daddy"

Sansa tries to stop Arya's prank, but before she can finish speaking, Ed speaks to Sansa in the dining hall.

"Sansa, eat first. I'll talk to Alya. ”

Then he was dragged to the corner of the hall with Arya's strength.

Sansa and the people at the table were stunned.

Ed loves his children very much, and although he is not good at expressing it, everyone can feel it.

But now, instead of playing with Arya, he wants to play with her.' Talk about it'?

At the dinner table, Sansa opened her mouth, but couldn't say anything.

On the other side, Arya pulled Ed around the corner to where Lan was.

It's a small, unobtrusive corner.

Lann keenly noticed that Ed was a little different from when he went out in the morning.

He had an extra gorgeous dagger at his waist that he had never seen before.

The handle of the dagger was the skeleton of an unknown creature entwined in gold, and like the sword of the Lake Maiden on Lan's back, it was worth a lot just from the grip.

The King's Hand, who had not spoken all the way, first looked suspiciously at the cat-eye guard he had equipped his daughter with, and then crouched down and asked the younger daughter seriously.

"How did you know about this, Arya?"

Arya knew she couldn't tell, so she simply pointed at Lan and turned her father's attention away.

Lan was standing against the wall with his hands on his chest, and he shrugged his shoulders under Ed's gaze.

"The two of us went out because the sword was being targeted by a bunch of thugs."

Lann's thumb pointed back at Arondaet's hilt, and Ed nodded.

In fact, this sword appeared many times in his conversations with King Robert, and a sword that looked so good was a favorite among warriors.

Robert even said that he wanted to buy the sword for a full two hundred gold dragons, but this was still without seeing the full blade.

"I gave the thugs a lesson, and they said that a knight who had recently been canonized was buying good things on a spree, and that knight had previously been an attendant to Prime Minister Jon Arryn."

Lan En spread his hands: "I heard from Jory yesterday that the former prime minister died very suddenly, causing you to be busy now. And the knighthood of this squire still makes sense, but where did so much money come from? I thought something was wrong, so I'll let you know. ”

Ed didn't react much in the first half of the sentence, just habitually put on a serious expression.

But when Len said that they had found information about a former prime minister's attendant, his expression suddenly became excited.

"What did you say that person was called?"

"Shuo." Rann repeated, "Former Prime Minister's acolyte, now a knight in King's Landing. ”

"Finally a clue!" Ed muttered to himself.

Immediately, he looked at Lan and Arya, who was still in the eyes, and told him all the information about the death of the former prime minister.

These two people can't get out of this matter anyway now, and it's really too difficult for him to find out alone.

According to Ed, he actually received a letter from the widow of the former Prime Minister while in Winterfell, saying that his adoptive father had been assassinated by the Lannisters, where the queen lived.

And the Lannisters also plan to murder the king.

This news is the key to making Ed, who can't play politics, decide to become prime minister.

Because he wanted to protect his brother, the king, Robert.

But in Lanen's ears, he immediately noticed that something was wrong.

"The widow of the former prime minister, why do you trust her?"

"It seems to me that she's doing a lot of unreasonable things right now. For example, she informed you of the crisis, but did not leave the Prime Minister's Tower with even the manpower to maintain normal operation, those who have been in contact with the former Prime Minister, and should know something anyway. Maids, cooks, servants, scribes, etc., this prime minister's tower should not have a rule that all the staff change together when the owner changes, right? ”

"If you rush back to the fiefdom overnight for fear of being exterminated, then you should travel lightly. Why is it that now that you're in King's Landing, you only know about one of the squires we've bumpered upon by the two of us? ”

Ed was stunned when he heard this, but he still defended the widow of the former prime minister.

"Lady Lyza is my wife's sister."

Lan En frowned slightly.

That is, Ed's adoptive father, who married the sister of Ed's wife?

Well, the aristocratic relations of the Middle Ages were like this.

"Kinship isn't an excuse to cover up problems, you shouldn't see each other much, right? In the face of the huge shadow involved in this matter, it is better not to believe in this unreliable relationship. ”

Ran dared to make such a comment about Ed's relatives, firstly, because he was indeed for the good of Arya's family.

The second is that Lan En knows very well that in Ed's eyes, he should be a person who met Arya by coincidence, after all, who would have thought that Joffrey would have a conflict with Arya on that day?

Therefore, Lan En has no possibility of deliberate conspiracy, but is an outsider who can be trusted.
