162. Secrets in the book

"Your guards are really shining, Lord Stark."

Petyr Berish had a lingering smile on his face.

It looked like he was still remorseful and worried about what he said in the King's Tent.

"Thanks to this swordsman, His Majesty is safe and sound."

The second half of the sentence was said by looking at Lan En, who came over, and the young man bowed slightly.

After Ed exchanged a few words with him with a cold face, Petyr left the prime minister, who was obviously in a bad mood.

Ed and Rann watched each other's departing backs together, lowering each other's voices.

"That's what he did! I'm sure of it! ”

"The king is bound to pursue this assassination, are you going to tell him?"

Ed was speechless for a moment, gritting his teeth in hatred.

If he could be honest with the king about the current problem, he would have said it before the group competition.

It was for the sake of the stability of the kingdom that the grumpy Robert could not be informed.

"At the best of all, there is no doubt that he used such a burst method. He was in a hurry. ”

Lan En clasped his hands to his chest, his fingers tapping over the leather armor of his big arm.

"In his eyes, you are not too obsessed with finding out the cause of the old prime minister's death, but because of this, you are in a hurry? No matter how you think about it, there are big problems inside. ”

Ed's mind is in a mess right now, if he weren't concerned about the safety of his good brother Robert and the stability of the kingdom, he really wants to step down as prime minister right now and return to his northern Winterfell.

"It's a mess, Lan Enhu. Maybe I'm really not fit to govern in a place like King's Landing. When this mess is over, I'll probably leave immediately. ”

"If you realize this, you're already better than a lot of people, sir. Let's get back to the point, have you gotten clues from others these days? ”

"The scholar of the royal family gave me a book, which is a very boring record of the noble lineage and bloodline. The former prime minister had been watching this during his lifetime. ”

"Reading?" Lan raised an eyebrow. "Coincidentally, I have a little bit of confidence in my reading skills. Go back and show me. ”

——

The assassination of the king was supposed to be a sensational event for the Seven Kingdoms.

But at this time, the king appeared on the high platform, and showed his healthy body safe and sound with a loud voice.

He also said that the tournament will continue with the remaining archery competition.

But everyone knows that the intelligence system of the kingdom has already begun to act.

Lane and Eddard, after the prize money for the team tournament has been decided, set off with their escort back to King's Landing.

When they arrived at the Prime Minister's Tower in the Red Fort, a raven flew towards the top of the tower with a "quack".

Ed looked up at the scene with a frown.

The raven is a means of communication on the continent of Westeros, and its positioning is similar to that of a carrier pigeon.

However, because they have been carefully cultivated by the school, they are stronger and more intelligent than wild species, and they are more likely to escape when encountering predators such as eagles in the wild.

But because of this, this means of communication is stained with some high-end attributes, and it is generally not available.

Flying towards the Prime Minister's Tower, you don't have to think about it, it's Ed Stark who is looking for it.

"Lanne, the book is on my desk, you go and read it yourself, I have to go and get a letter. Jory had the study key. ”

The guards present were all brought by Eddard from Winterfell, and there was nothing to shy away from.

The captain of the guard felt strange about Eddard's trust in Lanen, but he was not jealous or unconvinced.

He was originally a big grinning character, and he also knew that a smart brain deserved to be valued.

Ed made a beeline for the raven shed at the top of the Prime Minister's Tower, and Jory Kesso shrugged at Lane, "Let's go up too." ”

Walking all the way to the Prime Minister's Tower, I passed by the cubicle that Alia was contacting.

Jory Kesso pulled the key out of his leather armour's pocket, then opened the door to the study, leaning sideways to give up his seat to Lane.

"I'll just stay outside."

"Affected."

When Lan entered, the first thing he saw was the hardcover tome on the desk.

Indeed, as Ed said, this is a book that is enough to make ordinary people resist just looking at its appearance.

Lan, on the other hand, just pursed his lips and walked over and lifted the page.

"Mentos, global record plus logical analysis, ready to begin."

"The command has been received and is being executed."

Lan's eyes are like video recorders, and the biological brain in his brain begins to record all the information reflected in the retina at his command, and begins to analyze the logic.

This mode of operation can be very laborious, specifically a headache. But if the goal is only a book, Lan En doesn't think it's a big deal.

The sound of turning the pages sounded.

Lan's posture didn't look like reading a book, but like a boring flip through a book to pass the time.

But there is no doubt that Mentos has written down all the information.

"The Arryn family. The Stark Family. Tully, Lannisters, Baratheon, um, wait? ”

The eyes that were empty and in a daze suddenly sharpened.

Mentos captures the spark of inspiration in the subject and connects inspiration with logic.

A chain of clues was constructed in Lanne's brain.

"The language of Baratheon is 'caste fortitude'. They married in many families, and the children they eventually gave birth to were all black-haired and black-eyed Baratheon. ”

"But the iconic blonde hair of the Lannister family, the color that legend has it from the mythical era, was stolen from the sun by the Lannister's ancestors. So they intermarried, and many of the children they gave birth to were blonde. But."

In front of Ran's eyes, Mentos brought up an image of Prince Joffrey, and the blonde hair was even bright in the sun.

Lane's hand turned the pages back, resting on the pages of House Baratheon.

The finger accurately clicked on several cases of marriage.

"The Baratheon family has had more than one marriage with the Lannisters in history, but all the heirs in the record are black-haired and black-eyed!"

Gendry's appearance was placed in the opposite position of Joffrey by Mentos, and the two did not see the slightest paternal relationship.

"'Caste Tough'. No wonder!"

The world is convinced by the legends of the mythological age of the Lannisters, believing that blonde hair stolen from the sun will surely prevail over black hair in mortal blood.

However, the former prime minister repented when he buried his neck and began to track down the king's illegitimate son, as well as the appearance and characteristics of the children born from the marriage of two families in history.

No wonder the Lannisters are pushing so hard.

The three crown princes who co-authored today were all born of an affair?!

The queen did not fulfill even the slightest childbearing obligation for the king or for the kingdom!

This is going to break out, Robert will hang that woman alive!

Lan En smacked his lips, the absurd life of the nobles always made him refresh his three views.

The biggest question is solved, although there are still minor ones, such as why the former prime minister suddenly doubted the legitimacy of the blood relationship of the crown princes, and the role of Petyr Berish in this matter

But there is no doubt that the main contradiction was found out by Lan En.

As the mess nears its end, Lane feels that she can finally leave Arya with a stable environment.

He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Whew-"

But before he could finish his breath, the sound of hurried footsteps from the top of the tower rushed straight to the study.

The door of the study was pushed open with a "bang", and Ed leaned against the door frame with a solemn and tangled face, looking at Lan.

Lan En was about to say his shocking conclusion, but Ed was the first to speak.

"It's going to war, Lanne!"

The young man's cat's eyes blinked like a daze.

"Uh-huh?!!!"
