Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 163 162. The secret in the book

"Your guards truly shine, Lord Stark."

Petyr Baelish had a frightened smile on his face.

He looked like he was still regretting and worrying 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 spoken while looking at Lan En walking over. The young man nodded slightly in greeting.

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

Ed and Lan looked at each other's leaving figures and lowered their voices to each other.

"He did it! I'm sure of it!"

"The king will definitely pursue this assassination. Do you want to tell him?"

Ed was speechless for a moment and gritted his teeth bitterly.

If he could be honest with the king about the current problem, he might as well do it before the group competition.

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

"Looking at the bright side, the fact that he used such explosive means undoubtedly means that he is anxious."

Lan En crossed his arms and tapped his fingers on the leather armor of his upper arms.

"In his eyes, you are no longer obsessed with tracing the cause of the old prime minister's death, but you are so anxious because of this matter? No matter how you think there is a big problem in it."

Eddard was in a mess right now. If he hadn't been concerned about the safety of his good brother Robert and the stability of the kingdom, he would have really wanted to step down as Prime Minister right now and return to Winterfell, his home in the north.

"This is too messy, Lan Enhu. Maybe I'm really not fit to rule in a place like King's Landing. When this mess is over, I might leave immediately."

"If you can realize this, you are already stronger than many people, sir. Let's get back to the topic, have you gotten any clues from others in the past few days?"

"The Royal Grand Master gave me a book. It was a very boring book about the records of noble families and bloodlines. The former Prime Minister had been reading this book during his lifetime."

"Reading?" Lan En raised his eyebrows. "What a coincidence. I have a little confidence in my reading skills. Come back and show me."

——

The king was assassinated, which should have been a major event that shocked the Seven Kingdoms.

But at this moment, the king, who was full of energy, appeared on the high platform and showed his safe and healthy body with a loud voice.

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

But everyone knows that the kingdom's intelligence system has already started taking action.

Lan En and Eddard, after the prize money for the group competition had been set, took the escort and set off back to King's Landing.

When we arrived at the Prime Minister's Tower in the Red Fort, a raven just flew towards the top of the tower, croaking.

Ed looked up at the scene with a frown.

Ravens are a means of communication in Westeros, similar to homing pigeons.

But because they have been carefully cultivated in the school city, they are stronger and smarter than wild species, and they are better able to escape when encountering predators such as eagles in the wild.

But because of this, this communication method has some high-end attributes and cannot be used for ordinary things.

Flying towards the Prime Minister's Tower, without even thinking, the person I was looking for was Eddard Stark.

"Lan En, that book is on my desk. You go over and read it yourself. I have to pick up a letter. Qiao Li has the key to the study."

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

Although the guard captain felt strange about Ed's trust in Lan En, he was not jealous or dissatisfied.

He has a carefree temperament to begin with, and he also knows that a smart mind deserves to be taken seriously.

Ed went straight to the raven loft on the top of the Prime Minister's Tower. Jory Kelso shrugged at Lan En, "Let's go up too."

Walking all the way to the Prime Minister's Tower, we also passed by the small cubicle where Aaliya was communicating.

Jory Kelso took out the key from the pocket of his leather armor, then opened the study door and turned sideways to give up his seat to Lan En.

"I'll just stay outside."

"Tired."

After Lan En entered, the first thing he saw was the hard-cover tome on the desk.

Indeed, as Ed said, this is a book that can make ordinary people resist just by looking at it.

Lan En just pursed his lips, then walked over and opened the page.

"Mentos, global record and logical analysis, ready to start."

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

Lan En's eyes were like video recorders. Under his command, the biological brain in his brain began to record all the information reflected on the retina and carry out logical analysis.

This mode of operation can be very tiring, or more specifically, a headache. But if the goal was just one book, Lan En didn't think it was a big deal.

The sound of turning pages "clatter, clatter, clatter" sounded.

Lan En's posture didn't look like he was reading a book, but like he was flipping through a book to pass the time.

But there was no doubt that Mentos had memorized all the information.

"Family Arryn. House Stark. House Tully. House Lannister. House Baratheon. Um, wait?"

His dazed eyes suddenly became sharp.

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

A chain of clues was built in Lan En's mind.

"The Baratheon family's motto is 'caste tenacity'. They have married into many families, and the children they finally gave birth to are all Baratheons with black hair and black eyes."

"But the Lannister family's iconic blond hair is said to be the color stolen from the sun by the Lannister ancestors in the mythical era. So they intermarried with others, and many of their children were blond. But..."

In front of Lan En's eyes, Mentos summoned an image of Prince Joffrey. His blond hair was so bright that it was even dazzling in the sun.

Lan's hand turned back the pages of the book and stopped at the pages about the Baratheon family.

My finger accurately clicked on several marriage cases.

"The Baratheon family has more than one marriage record with Lannister in history, but all the children in the record have black hair and black eyes!"

Gendry's appearance was placed opposite that of Joffrey by Mentos, and there was no trace of any paternal blood relationship between the two.

"'Caste toughness'. No wonder!"

The world is convinced by the legend of House Lannister in the mythical age, believing that blond hair stolen from the sun must be better than black hair passed down by mortal blood.

However, the former prime minister repented when his neck was buried in the soil, and began to trace the king's illegitimate child, as well as the appearance of the children born from the marriage between the two families in history.

No wonder the Lannisters are so pressing.

Co-author: Are all the three current crown princes the result of extramarital affairs? !

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

If this comes out, Robert will hang that woman alive!

Lan En smacked his lips, the absurd life of the nobles always refreshed his outlook.

The biggest problem has been solved, although there are still some minor problems, such as why the former prime minister suddenly doubted the legitimacy of the crown princes' blood lineage, and Petyr Baelish's role in this matter.

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

This mess of shit is almost over, and Lan En feels that he can finally leave Aria with a stable environment.

He couldn't help but sigh in relief.

"call--"

But before he could finish this breath, the sound of rapid footsteps from the top of the tower came straight towards the study.

The door to the study room was pushed open with a bang. Ed held on to the door frame with a solemn and troubled expression and looked at Lan En.

Lan En was about to express his shocking conclusion, but Ed had already spoken first.

"The war is about to begin, Lan!"

The young man's cat eyes blinked as if in a daze.

"Um?!!!"
