Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 155 154. Staff

Early the next morning, this was also the first day of the tournament.

Petyr Baelish, the elegant finance minister, made an appointment with the current king's hand to take a walk in the royal garden.

He was of slim build, and fastened to the collar of his patterned robes was a delicate button in the shape of a mockingbird, his chosen sigil of House Baelish.

At this time, the finance minister, who looked elegant and easy-going, was acting like an experienced person giving guidance to the underachievers.

Point out to Ed who the seemingly inconspicuous people they passed on their walks were actually the spies behind.

The old man who uses a plow to clear fallen leaves on the ground is the Queen's eyes and ears.

Not far away, the dirty children were playing with their toys. They were the 'Little Birds' who worked for the kingdom's intelligence chief.

The nun on the bench, seemingly immersed in a pamphlet on the teachings of the Seven Gods, is Petyr Baelish's own spy.

"So, Lord Stark."

Petyr stretched out his hand and signaled to Ed again the few inconspicuous 'passers-by' they had passed just now. Each and every one of them was a guy with a superior.

"The most important thing when doing business and living in King's Landing is to be careful with what you say."

As for Ed himself, when he came over today and saw Petyr Baelish for the first time, the expression on his face was like a solid rock.

This acting is really not that good, but it is due to the fact that he usually gives everyone the impression that he is also a model knight with a straight face.

So for a moment Petyr didn't feel anything was wrong.

"Is this why you called me here?"

Ed suppressed his anger and tried to keep his voice steady.

"No, of course not."

Petyr smiled unsurprisingly.

In his heart, Ed Stark should be in this state right now, feeling angry but having nowhere to vent his anger.

This man who came to King's Landing from the north is so upright and understanding. He doesn't seem to have any idea of ​​hiding anything.

So at the current imperial meeting table, basically everyone sees him clearly.

Under Ed's gaze, Petyr threw out the two baits he had prepared long ago.

Xiu Fu, a knight of the Kingdom who was recently canonized in a hurry, and a blacksmith shop that the former prime minister often visited during his lifetime - Tob Mott's blacksmith shop.

After giving the two carefully prepared pieces of information, the meeting was considered over.

"Thank you for informing me. I'll take my leave now. I'm going to visit the martial arts tournament today."

Ed said with a cold face.

The Chancellor of Finance still has a gentle and elegant smile, which makes people more fond of him.

"Lord Stark has many things to do, please be careful on the road."

——

"Since you said you would go back to the martial arts competition venue today, you should go there."

In a vacant room in the Prime Minister's Tower, Lan taught Arya how to flexibly use the two sharp blades in her hands, one long and one short.

Nymeria was lying in the corner of the room, gasping listlessly with her tongue out.

The environment in King's Landing is a bit too hot for direwolves.

Lan En watched Aria swing her sword slowly while tilting her head to communicate with the Prime Minister beside her.

So is Eddard Stark.

Their eyes were all watching Aaliya practice swinging her sword, but what was said in their mouths and what was in their minds were not in this room at all.

"I will go over there, but I want to hear your opinion on this statement first."

Lan En glanced slightly to the side from the corner of his eyes.

Is this guy treating me as an aide?

Whether it's the experience of a college student or the life of a demon hunter, this kind of role is really Lan En's first attempt.

However, he is also very confident, relying on the Mentos in his mind to analyze rationally, and the memories of the Emperor's Children to enrich his knowledge and experience.

There's nothing he can't do about this kind of thing, and he even said that as long as he wants to, he can do it perfectly.

"Xiu Fu has nothing to say. I have cleaned up the little information in his mind yesterday. The other party is confident that you can contact him. They are probably sure that you will not ask about the private life of the former prime minister. Or they are sure that Xiu Fu can Recognize the situation clearly and know that you are just a prime minister who has just taken office and has no authority at all, and I will not say much to you."

"And that blacksmith shop"

Lan En paused for a moment when he said this, with an expression of 'what a coincidence'.

The blacksmith shop Petyr was talking about was the shop where the owner mastered the technology of recasting Valyrian steel.

"Aliya, stop for a moment. Bring me a pen and paper."

The little girl, who was adapting to the blocking movement of her left dagger, nodded and went out of the room to get some paper and pen.

Lan En held the pen and turned his wrist slightly, as if he was getting familiar with a feel he had long forgotten.

A few seconds later, under the curious gazes of Ed and Aaliyah, he quickly sketched the humanoid frame on the paper, and then filled in further details.

Finally, in less than two minutes, the appearance of the strong young man he had seen in the blacksmith shop appeared on the paper.

Most of the Emperor's Children are proficient in some artistic skills, either as a tool to improve their cultivation or as a hobby.

Painting knowledge is too common in memory.

Although Lan En has not been able to practice, a character sketch is more than enough.

In a moment of logical discussion between Lan En and Mentos, they came to a conclusion.

It is impossible for the former Prime Minister to go to the blacksmith for weapons and armor. After all, he is already so old.

It must be to meet someone.

The owner of the blacksmith shop has been in King's Landing for decades. If there was a problem, it would have been exposed long ago.

Only that kid could have something unknown.

And just as Lan En expected, Ed narrowed his eyes after seeing Gendry's sketch.

"This is Robert's child? Have you seen this man?"

To be honest, with Eddard's relationship with the king, he even knew how big Robert's bird was.

The young man looked so much like Robert in his youth.

Strong figure, strong facial curves, black hair and black eyes.

Lan En raised his eyebrows.

"He is the apprentice of the blacksmith shop. You said he is the king's illegitimate son? It seems that he is the one Petyr wants you to meet."

"but why."

Ed was a little confused, he knew his king brother too well.

To put it bluntly, that guy is like a wild dog in heat sometimes!

When Robert was fighting the War of the Seizer, the war to seize the current throne, he was once at a disadvantage and forced into a city alone.

But by virtue of his youthful appearance, body and family, he suddenly attracted women in the entire city to throw themselves at him and hide their traces.

During that time, he had to work hard on the beds of ladies every night.

The enemy did not dare to offend the ladies in the entire city. After all, they had noble status and wealthy families. Did they openly support Robert?

So Robert actually relied on his own waist to escape the disaster!

Ed didn't know exactly how many illegitimate children the king had, but he guessed that there were definitely many.

Robert was the kind of man who would make a lifelong vow to the woman he wanted to fall in love with, and then forget about it the night he fell in love with her.

"I don't comment on the king's behavior, nor do I care." Lan En said calmly.

"But you should go to the tournament venue, Prime Minister. Take a look at the progress of the project. After all, tomorrow is the start of the project."

"As for the information provided by Lord Baelish, let's put it aside for now. After all, you are so busy."

Ed looked at Lan En in astonishment, and then saw the witcher wave his hand indifferently.

"Those ingrained adults think they have seen through you. If you throw out two baits, you will run away. But this time you know everything you should know. If you don't run away, then who should be panicking?"
